Around
nine Gina gently steps onto the boat, making sure Sonny doesn't
hear her. He's just gone below deck to pick up a book. Yes, he can
read.
Gina stands on the deck, on top of the stairs Sonny is about
to climb. Still with his mind to other things, he is caught by
surprise to stumble upon a pair of very nice legs and sexy high
heeled shoes. He followes them all the way up until he sees the very
pretty and familiar face of Gina's.
"Got lost?" he tried to
joke.
"Yes… I have no idea where I ended up, sir. Maybe you
can help me find my way back?" Gina flirted.
"Just step over
the railing, down the wharf, passed the parking lot. There should be
a cab ready to take you wherever you want to go." Sonny
teased.
"Ok. I'll find him. Thanks." She turned around to
pretend walkig away as Sonny rushed himself up the stairs, getting in
front of her.
"Uh-uh. I can't let you get off this boat, ma'm.
Once you get in, you can't get out…" He approaches her, puls
her close to him and kiss her passionately, the kiss was long overdue
and they both knew it. After a couple of minutes of kissing and
cuddling, Sonny offers her a drink.
"I'd like a bottle of your
finest wine… I believe it is sitting in your fridge…" She tells
him, knowing she'd have to explain this in a little while.
"Oh…
how very nice. I'll go and have a look." To his surprise there is
indeed a bottle of his favourite wine, just waiting for him. He opens
the bottle and poors the both of them a nice glass. And after a
while, a second one.
"Too bad I can't offer you something nice
to eat." Sonny says.
"Well, as a matter off fact, I know there
should be some luxurious appetizers sitting in that same fridge. But
off course, you have been cursed by the
I-can't-look-past-my-nose-virus that practically every man is
suffering from. So you will probably not have noticed this when you
got me the wine." She fools with him.
Sonny moves himself back
to the fridge and is again very happily surprised to find a nice
stash of appetizers, wondering when Gina could have possible planted
them.
"You did just impulsively step by, didn't you?" He
tilted his head and raised his eyebrows.
"Well… to be honest
with you… I have been set up, and so have you." Gina ridiculed
the both of them.
"Meaning?"
"Meaning Danni arranged
this. She took care of the wine and snacks and made sure I'd come
over. I had her talk me into this…. But I am actually glad I
came…"
"Ah, I see. And uhm… what's the deal with this
then?" He says with suspicion.
"There is no deal. She's
just trying to get us together… as she always does. Don't you
want me to be here?" Gina tests him.
"I love to have you here.
I just can't help but feeling there's a catch to this that I
won't like. But if you say it's nothing, then you're probably
right. Let's enjoy the treat while it lasts, come on." They
arrange themselves on a blanket on the deck, with delicious foods all
over the place.
"What do you say, wanna get wild and go drink
some tequilas somewhere?" Sonny asks all of a sudden. As much as
Gina would have loved to say 'Yes', she knew she had to stick to
her end of the deal.
"No… Why don't we just stay? I rather
just stay here on the boat." She starts kissing him again to take
his mind off the topic, successfully I might add, he forgets about it
in just two seconds.
"How come we never took that rain check
from last year?" Sonny asks.
"You never asked me over." Gina
replies.
"Neither did you…"
About an hour after this,
there is a trail of clothes, leading from the deck to below, ending
at the bed. Sonny just lights another cigarette, confirming you, that
what you thought, indeed happened.
"We should be getting our
cloths on by now. Danni could be here any minute." Sonny says,
stroking the head that lies on his chest.
"Don't worry about
that. We have all the time in the world." Gina sighs gladly.
"How
come I feel I've just been had? Is this the catch? That she'd get
some extra time?"
"Uhum." Gina confirmed with the least
amount of breath as possible, she might need it later.
"I knew
it! And what time did you girls arrange?"
"Negotiate is a
better word. We negotiated 2." Gina just bought Danni an extra half
an hour, just in case she'd forget about the time.
"And you
let her get away with that? Really? I never would have figured… I
always thought you were tougher than that." He teases her.
"Oh,
but I am very tough. I did it all for myself and it worked out fine,
didn't it?" She smiles, pleased with her answer.
"Well,
actually… it is your fault. So I think I may just have to deal with
you … instead of Danni." He pulls her real close to him and holds
her firmly.
"Oh, do you? Well, I think I might have to bust you
for domestic violence then. I could lock you up for 5 years!" She
bluffs.
"So, you wanna play cops with that chocolate badge of
yours? … or is for real?" He teases after which he releases her
and they passionately continue their game for a while, until it
really is time Danni gets back and get themselves dressed.
