Touche Rue! Very good guess. I thought that their story was totally novel worthy. and She looks like Xena so she inspired me. I don't even know where I will stop the story. But this is the way I precieved all of the tabloid crap I read. NO the kids are not her kids, though they could be I haven't decided. I hope you guys enjoy this instalment too.--S.K.
Caught in Africa
I didn't take Jayden with me to Pakistan, but a few days later we made plans to meet up in Kenya. I had a thing with the Humanity Aid there. When my plane landed I put on my sunglasses and walked out. There was a lot more fanfare now a days than what I was used to. I had grown accustomed to walking around in sunglasses and hats.
As I walked out to our waiting car I smiled. "Hey! You're here!" I said giving Jayden a friendly hug, just before heading inside the car. Lilly and Maddy went in first, then Kristen my new assistant and Zack Jayden's assistant. I sat next to Kristen "Where are we staying?"
"In the Savannah resort in a bungalow." Zack said
"So what's the itinerary?" I asked absentminded, playing with my hair I had a knot the size of Maddy's fist at the nape of my neck.
"You're good for tonight," Kristen said, "tomorrow you have a symposium starting at ten, then a luncheon, followed by your conference where you will be speaking at four. Then you are free again for the night."
"Cool." I said liberating my brush from my purse and attacking the lump. I sat there quietly listening as Maddy and Jayden had a bit of conversation, about bugs.
"But the spiders, they are not insects you know?" Maddy said.
"They aren't?" Jayden asked, "What are they?"
"I don't know... I just know they're not bugs, I learned that from mommy..." Maddy trailed off when she looked at the coastline. "Look!"
"Oh wow, that's a pretty beach." Jayden agreed.
"Can we go mom?" Maddy asked finally coming over to me and sitting on my lap. I scrunched up my face, I was planning on totally relaxing today for my grueling day tomorrow. "Please?"
I watched as Kristen and Zack got out of the car to get the room keys for us. "I guess we can go for a little bit." I pulled out my blackberry and texted Kristen to please buy Maddy and I both a swim suit at the gift shop before she came back out to the car.
Kris: What color do you want?
Me: Are you kidding?
Minutes later she came back into the car, and handed me the bag. I peeked inside and smirked. "Thank you."
"There is more to life than black you know?" She responded
"You should have taken the opportunity to lighten me up." I answered.
"No I like my job, thank you very much." I laughed at that as the car came to a stop in front of our bungalow.
It had been a really nice afternoon. The three of us hung out on the beach. Maddy chased the surf for hours. Jayden kept up with her and they got along famously.
She played so hard that she was exhausted and Jayden had to carry her sleeping little body back to the Bungalow.
"I had so much fun with her today." Jayden said to me as we ate dinner.
"She had a lot of fun too."
Jayden walked to me kissing the nape of my neck sending shivers down my spine. We hadn't been physical since the movie and I found myself anticipating the moment where we would cross that bridge. "I want you so bad," he whispered.
"Ditto," I mumbled as he nibbled at my ear. His hands move from my shoulders down to my hands making every hair on my body stand at attention.
"Come on, melt into me." My body was humming with the desire to do just that. What was I waiting for? I turned my head and covered his lips with mine. I kissed him hungrily and allowed him to lift me out of my chair.
I straddled him and he carried me towards the bed. We didn't quite make it there, but he perched me on the couch he removed my bikini bottoms, as I pulled him free from his swim trunks unable to help ourselves. We couldn't control or hold back our passion. As in every lifetime, the first time we came together physically was always incredibly intense and rushed, but hardly unsatisfactory.
He lifted me again and we made it as far as the wall next to the couch before he entered me. He pinned me there against the wall. It was so hot I came soon after. I convulsed in my pleasure causing him to fall over the edge there after. His knees buckled and we landed in a heap there on the floor.
I began to laugh. Ares looked at me, then smirked. "Thank you."
"Let's get to bed and do this right." I said softly
"Wait, I don't think I can walk right now." He said rolling over.
"Neither can I." I said and looked at him. "I love you..."
"I love you too." He responded, "Marry me."
"No." I said without hesitation. What the hell was he thinking? He was still married to someone else.
"No?"
"I'm not going there again." I answered.
"Hello? I wasn't talking about going to do this tomorrow, I meant you know after the divorce is final."
"Yes I realize that Ares, but I just don't like the word marriage hanging over me. We can be together without that piece of paper."
"I have a reputation to maintain." Ares said.
"Is that what it is about? Jayden's reputation?" I said standing up forgetting all about having had the best sex of this lifetime just five minutes before. "Yeah, I guess you have always been superficial like that."
"Xena, what's the big deal?" He asked.
"The big deal is that, we both have an image we want to live up to. Mine is about to be dragged to the mud, and you want me to marry you so that you can live up to your image of the nice wholesome boy next door." I spat back, "Fuck you Jayden."
I turned and headed to the bedroom and slammed the door behind me. He didn't come after me. Minutes later I heard the outside door to the bungalow slam, and he was gone.
Whew! I am way behind on this story, so I probably won't post again until saturday. But please review I love those things, they keep me going. I tend to get very responsive when I get feedback.
