Robert rolled off of Holly, laying next to her as he looked into her eyes. "How was that for a seduction?" He smirked at her.
Holly smiled brightly, her eyes dancing with his. "Not bad." She knew this should get a response.
Robert feigned shocked, he knew this game but he also enjoyed playing it. "Not bad? Not bad? I seem to recall someone's.."
Holly cut him off before he could finish. "Darling the night is still young." Her eyes sparkled while she rested her head on the pillow.
The vision before him took his breath away, he found himself speechless. How was she even more gorgeous now? His hand stroked her cheek, finding his voice. "You would say that you little minx."
Holly giggled as she placed her hand on his. "You know what I want right now?" She asked him, kissing his temple. She was enjoying the intimacy, she was enjoying him.
"I think so." Robert grinned, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close. He kissed her neck.
"Mmm Robert this is lovely but I was talking about food." Holly whispered into his ear but made no attempt to get him to stop.
Robert laughed and kept kissing her neck. "Do you want to order something?" He mumbled against her neck, still kissing at it.
Holly's sighed happily and tilted her head over a bit more. "That would probably be the smart thing though you seem to be making a snack of me." She chuckled while holding him close.
"Are you complaining?" He asked, moving up so he could look into her eyes.
"Not in the least, I just know we need our strength." Holly placed a kiss on his lips, then on his cheek.
Robert could stay doing this forever but he knew she was right. They needed to eat. Reluctantly he rolled over to grab his phone. "Chinese food?" He asked her as he grabbed his shorts to put on.
Holly sat up in the bed, reaching over for her robe. "Sounds lovely." She got out bed and went into the other room.
Robert got their food ordered then called Laura to see what progress she had made. "Hey it's just me checking in again."
"It's all still a go, I think we are going to pull this off Robert. How is Holly doing? And you?" Laura asked while she took a seat next to Kevin. Kevin knew of their plan but also knew to keep it quiet.
"We are both doing great, we spent the afternoon with Ethan and Seana now we are having some time just the two of us." The happiness in Robert's voice was evident and it brought a smile to Laura's face.
"Good, I'm so happy for you Robert and for Holly. I'll check in if you don't first." Laura replied. The two ended the call and Robert put his robe on.
"Holly?" He called out as he opened the door to the bedroom.
Holly was on the couch, looking through the movies. "I'm seeing what I can find for us to watch whilst we eat." Holly scooted over so Robert could sit next to her.
Robert took the seat next to her. "I vote Charlie Chan."
Holly smiled over at him. "You would. I wouldn't complain though, although I have to admit we've never really been able to full behave while watching those movies."
Robert wiggled his brows at him as he leaned in. "You complaining?"
Holly shook her head no. "Absolutely not. Makes it more fun to watch them." Holly turned the TV off and kissed him. "We should watch it in our room. Get in bed like we used to. It'll be fun." She wrapped her arms around him.
Robert kissed her head. He loved this, loved just holding her. "It would be my little seductress."
Just then there was a knock on the door. Robert let out a groan. Holly moved out of Robert's arms while he went to go answer it.
"Is this a bad time?" Ethan asked, noticing they were both in their robes. He didn't want to interrupt them but he had told them he would talk to them later about the job he was offered.
Robert shook his head, "Not at all. Come on in." Him and Holly always had all the time in the world for both of their children.
Ethan walked inside and sat down in the chair. "Sorry I didn't come over earlier. I wanted to help put Seana to bed. She actually loves when I tell her stories. She loves how I do the voices."
Holly beamed with pride as she watched Ethan talk about his little girl. "I bet you do a lovely job at it. She is lucky to have you."
"She's lucky to have both of you too." Ethan told them. He loved that his little girl had such amazing grandparents, between them and what he knew about Tiff she really lucked out.
Robert sat down next to Holly. "She's a special little girl, we are all lucky to have her in our lives." Robert said fondly of his youngest grandchild. She was full of energy and just the sweetest child.
"I wanted to talk to you all about the job opportunity I have been offered, in general I think it's something that mum would know a thing or two about." Ethan looked over at Holly, hoping she knew he wasn't talking about her checkered past.
"Are you marrying Jordan?" Holly could not help but tease him, she knew that he was probably worried her mind would go to places that she wasn't too proud of but she wouldn't let it. She refused too. Diane would not have that power.
"No, I don't think Annie would be too happy about that." Ethan laughed, relieved she didn't think he meant conning. "Mac and I have been talking. He was thinking about bring back The Outback."
