Pulling the chair out for her to sit down, Lauren blushed sitting down on the chair, Joey effortlessly shuffled her forward, before sitting down opposite her. He couldn't take his eyes off of her, her beauty beyond words tonight. Wearing a white strapless dress that sat on her thighs a large gold necklace added to the outfit she was stunning, her hair neatly plaited to the side the end resting on her shoulder.

"You look gorgeous Lauren" placing his hand on the table, taking her within it naturally entwining their fingers. How was it normal for these two to feel so comfortable in each other's company after such a short time? This was something that happened in films, go on holiday, meet someone unexpectedly and then fall in love, yet it was becoming a reality both would embrace.

"Thank you" she replied, squeezing his hand, her thumb brushing his knuckles.

"You don't need to thank me Lauren, it's only the truth" he smiled back at her. He wasn't one for giving compliments to girls, occasionally his sister and mum, only telling them what they wanted to hear, he was used to girls falling at his feet, not needing to make them feel special, yet with the beauty opposite him, it was almost necessary for him to compliment her, he couldn't help it, he wanted to tell her every minute how stunningly beautiful she was.

After ordering their food, they delved into casual conversation; it flowing between them without any awkward silences, there was always something to talk about neither needing to think about it first, it was all just so natural.

"So are you going to show me some of this art you do when we meet in London?" Joey was generally interested in what she loved to do, knowing she was most likely amazing at it.

"I can show you now, pass me your napkin" pointing to the folded napkin under his arm, passing it over to her, he watched as she pulled a pen from her clutch bag. "Why do you have a pen on you?" he laughed, it never failed to amuse him the amount of things girls could carry in their purses even the small ones like Lauren was using tonight. "I'm a girl we have everything on us" she replied, clicking the ball point pen placing it down onto the napkin, her eyes occasionally flicking up to Joey's face then back down onto the napkin.

5 minutes later, she popped the pen back into her bag, taking a large breath she passed the napkin back over to him. "It's not great, the napkin was harder to draw on than I thought" she blushed, never showing her attempts at drawing to anyone before not even her parents.

Studying the image before him, he had guessed right she was an amazing drawer, even thought I was on a napkin drawn with a pen, it was outstanding the detail she conveyed on his face breath taking, she captured him perfectly. Even the detail in his hair was carefully drawn. "Lauren this is so good" he smiled at her again, "you don't show people these do you?" pushing her for a little bit more detail about herself always desperate to know more.

"Nope, you would be the first" she laughed nervously, "You think that's good?" pointing to the napkin, she thought it was pretty awful, but she had the tendency to really criticize herself.

"Good? Babe its great I can't wait to see more" emphasising on the final part, he wanted to see more of her work, hitting Lauren that he defiantly wants to meet up when they were home neither would be able to walk away at this point, they were in too deep.

Their food arrived shortly after, Lauren feeling completely famished; the day at the Water Park made her hungry. Tucking into her pasta, she couldn't help but notice Joey watching her eat whilst he was eating. "I have never known a girl to have such a healthy appetite" he smirked "Usually most girls don't like eating in front of boys".

Lauren laughed, choking a little on her pasta, patting her chest she took a swig of drink, "I'm not most girls, if I'm hungry I'm gunna eat" her fork picking up another piece of pasta popping it into her mouth. "Good, I'm glad it's kind of sexy" his voice purring at her over the table. Lauren felt the atmosphere in the room change, his eyes like the previous night turning dark with lust again. Reaching her leg out she brushed her foot up and down his leg, seductively getting higher and higher up his leg, until it reached is crutch.

"Hurry up and eat, then were going to your hotel" his voice fully of authority sending shivers down her spine, her mouth drying up. She would never usually like a man being so demanding but with Joey she knew he was joking, he would never force her into anything she didn't want.

"Yes sir" she giggled, finishing up her food, Joey's gone in record timing, paying the waitress, he took her hand, leading her towards the hotel. The electricity running through their hands, sparking up a flame within their bodies. Reaching her room, she found herself being thrown over his shoulder as he entered the room, kicking the door shut going straight to the bedroom. Placing her down on the bed, their clothes were soon stripped away, Joey almost tearing her lace knickers off of her much to Laurens amusement, she never knew someone who wanted her so badly, his eagerness to make love to her once more prominent. Minutes later the pair lay in a hot mess, body parts tangled and entwined as they panted trying to regain a normal breathing pace.

"Just like the first time" he choked out, his breathing still raged. Running her fingers through her sweaty hair, her head resting on his chest. "Do you think it will be like this when we get home?" looking up at him, his face turning into a small smile.

"It will be better" stating a fact, leaning down to kiss her soft lips.

The room went peaceful, the pair enjoying time alone together, never wanting it to end, but knowing the holiday would be over in a few days. How would being home effect their bond, would life get in the way of them being together, being a couple. Lauren didn't even know if they were a couple, if they were even exclusive. She wanted to be more than anything, but was waiting for him to say it first, her insecurities taking over again.

After an hour or two, Lauren and Joey headed to the club where their friends were at, with only a few nights left they wanted to enjoy the buzzing nightlife while they could. Lauren made her way to the bar, getting a drink for herself and Joey, she felt a hand rest on her waist, not his hand, someone else's. Turning to face the bloke stood next to her, she decided to be polite not the usual Lauren who would of thrown a sarcastic harsh comment at him, moving his hand off of her waist she smiled at him, "Sorry, I'm with someone" she felt confident saying it to someone she didn't know, plus Joey wasn't around to hear it. "It's okay we all share in Zante babe" the bloke smirked his hands going back onto her waist. "Well I don't" pulling herself away from him the uncomfortable feeling setting in.

"You okay babe?" Joey was suddenly behind her, appearing out of nowhere exactly when she needed him, could this boy get any better.

"Yeah, some people can't take a hint" hissing a little, Joeys arm as expected wrapping solidly around her waist. Shifting positions with her so he was now next to the bloke "She's my girlfriend mate, back off yeah?" his voice stern, maybe even threatening. Lauren blushed snuggling into his side, he said she was his girlfriend.

"Oh sorry pal, no offence" the bloke holding his hands up and backing away, leaving a very smug Joey with Lauren. "Girlfriend aye?" raising her eyebrow she couldn't resist wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Yeah that's what you are" he smiled, putting it so simply, they were together.

Exclusive.
