Apologizing: Force Style

"Ms. Van Alen" Hattie called up stairs, waking me up with a start.

"Yes Hattie?" I called down. Not remembering coming upstairs.

"Mr. Jack is here to see you." I sighed and got out of bed, put on a rob and headed down stairs. Jack was waiting for me on the couch in the living room.

"What?" I asked annoyed. I still wasn't over what had happened yesterday.

"I know you're angry-"

"Ya think?"

"Skylar please."

"If your father or crazy ass sister comes with in a hundred feet of me, I will not hold back. Benjamin Force. Consequences be damned."

"I know. I wanted to take you on a spa day. Well you and Bliss." I smiled brightly.

"Really?" I squealed and jumped into his arms. He laughed and spun me a little.

"Yes, really. I know you've had so much stress put on you. And I wanted this to be like apology."

"You know bye me things won't make up for what happened yesterday, right?" I asked jokingly. But jack answer me seriously.

"Yes I do. But it's a start."

"I feel like there something more to this apology." I said wrapping my arms around his waist. He grinned down at me.

"There is," he said coyly.

"And that would be?"

"A secret. Now go and get dressed. Bliss will be here in a minute." I pouted and unwrapped my arms for around him. And put a little extra swing in my hips as I walked away. Jack gave a low whistle and stopped me as I reached the bottom of the stairs and wrapped his arms around me.

"If you keep doing that, you'll end up missing your spa day with Bliss." He said in my ear, kissing down my neck.

I laughed. "Trust me, I wouldn't mind at all." He stepped back and smacked my ass. I gave a small yep and looked over my shoulder at him.

"Up stairs before you really won't being going to the spa." I laughed and went. Bliss was here five minutes later. When I went downs stairs to greet her, I saw that there was a hug vase full of red roses on the coffee table.

"Jack." She said as she handed me a piece of paper. It was a schedule.

Spa with Bliss: 9am- 4pm

Beach Day with Bliss, Oliver, and Jack 5pm-7pm

Romantic dinner with J 7:30pm- whenever I must leave (P.S. dress warmly)

I smiled and put the paper into my purse.

"Ready to go?" Bliss asked. I nodded.

The Spa

"So tell me what happened in the library yesterday. I heard you were about to kill Mimi and Mr. Force." Bliss asked as we stepped into the sonna.

"Short story or long story?" I asked her.

"Hmm, long. I think we have enough time before are massage." So I told her. When I was through with my tale, Bliss looked like she wanted to storm out and kill them herself.

"Who dare they! Mr. Force has no right to tell you to do that- and Mimi? You do realize she's no longer in the 2 digits right? I mean she passed twelve a looong time ago." I nodded. Not trusting my voice. I hadn't told her about her being my sister. Or that Charles had her killed. It seemed to soon.

"Man, Jack was right. You do need this."

The Beach

Now when someone tells you you're going to the beach. You think they possible mean a local beach or somewhere close. But since New York didn't have any beaches, we thought we'd just be going to Miami or somewhere close to New York. But Jack, being Jack, didn't just want to be that simple. Instead he used the private jet to take us to the Virgin Islands.

They played in the water, built sand castles, lay in the sun, and just relaxed.

Dinner

Jack had decided to go all out to apologize to me. He took me to the skinning dipping, fire dancers, a romantic walk on the beach, and finished off with a over the top dinner. With lobster, a large chocolate cake with chocolate frosting (which is my favorite), and a night him tending to my body the way Eros (Greek God. Known as Cupid, by the Romans) would have shown a mortal woman. And all on a but on the beach in Jamaica.

"I love you," I whispered as I wrapped my legs around Jack's waist.

He kissed the top of my head. "Does that mean I'm forgiven?" I laughed.

"For now."

"Good."
