It's evening time and I caught Kyra up on everything that happened at the beach today. Again, she was a little distant once I brought up the incident with Davin and she walked away. She didn't talk to me about her day on set or how her day was. She went to get ready for this party we've been invited to.

I go and take a shower shortly after. After my shower, I'm hit with some dangerous questions.

"Tripp, do you still have feelings for her? Do you still love her?"

Damn, no kiss first? No 'I love you'? No telling me how your day was? I didn't even mention her and, suddenly, it's the topic of conversation?

"Nah, love. She got what she wants and I love who I have right now," I say as I move the towel over my body to dry myself off.

My body moves right behind hers and I wrap my arms around her. Kissing her on the neck is just the icing on the cake. I want to tease her and to forget everything that's happened. Let's just start all over now.

Taking a peek into the mirror, I see Kyra grinning from ear-to-ear.

"Tripp, I love you too....but I saw her today."

My eyes move to see hers and all I see is worry in hers. That's what she's been shaken up about all day?

"Well, that's cool and all but-"

"She threatened me, Tripp. She told us to stay on our side of Maui and don't get on hers. She said that she'd kill me if we bumped into her at all..."

Journee said that? Of all people who'd make threats like that, I'd never think Journee would say something like that. Somebody's pretty bitter now.

"I just don't want her, nor her husband, to ruin our time together-"

"Then let's not talk about them. Let them be pissed off and shit. We'll take the high road and have a good time at this beautiful event. It's about us tonight." I stop her just to ease my mind.

We've already been through enough drama with the two of them. We don't need to worry about them any longer. They've set their boundary so they shouldn't be in our way.

Kyra turns around and my hands place themselves on her petite ass. They can't control themselves so they give a long squeeze onto her once she kisses me.

If she continues pushing me, we may not make it out of this suite.

Our lips move in sync as we graze over each other's naked bodies. I pick her up and place her on the bathroom sink as she pulls my towel off my hips.

Fuck a party. We got our own going on in the bathroom and don't have to get dressed up for it.

My lips lightly move across her skin and I grow firm with every gasp she makes. Taking a nipple to my mouth, I'm listening to her soft moans and drift off into a different tangent. A fire has been ignited between us and it's almost out of control.

Her hands caress my head as I trail my lips down her stomach. Her delicate touches make me shiver inside, pushing me closer to her sweet spot.

As soon as I get to that honey pot, a knock interrupts everything and I'm pissed all over again.

Kyra's still stuck in her own little world and I'm frustrated that I'm thrown back into reality; a reality where we can't love on each other because there's just no time.

"Baby, please get that," Kyra says as she touches my face and smiles sweetly. I wish I can keep that smile on her face but that'll have to be another time.

Right now, her words are like music to my ears and they stimulate me to do what she says. I can't resist her.

Leaving that bathroom breaks my heart and angers my dick because I want that quality time with my wife.

When I open the door, of course, Ryker and Darian come through it with their best dressed on. Ryker's popping his collar and Darian's looking me up and down with a worried look.

"Bro, this ain't The Emperor's New Clothes. Get ya clothes on. The gala starts in 30."

****

I step out of the limo first in this dark blue tuxedo that Kyra's wardrobe team put in my suitcase. Luckily, they let me wear my loafers.

Before I help my queen out, my eyes search my shoes for any problems and I dust off my suit. So much paparazzi around the place, flashing lights, yelling out for different people, excited fans with signs and whatnot. It's crazy.

"You look extraordinary, baby love," Kyra compliments as I grab her hand and check out her lovely dark blue dress. It gives a tease at the tops of her breasts but leaves everything else to the imagination. It's a long ass v-neck. Her hair is pinned up and her makeup is dazzling.

We're ready to walk into this mansion-like building and show off. Generally, I'm not one to deal with the glitz and glamour but tonight is different. I'm supporting my wife and she's right beside me.

Normally, we go in together and she leaves me as soon as we hit the door. Tonight, we're in this together.

She introduces me to some of the actors and actresses that just so happen to be in town. We meet the actor she plays opposite of and some other famous people that she works with.

I'm paying attention but it's difficult because I'm too happy with her just holding my hand throughout all of this. She's not letting me go and I love it.

Suddenly, we're being sent to the dance floor and we get down. It's a pretty fast and funky tine so she's moving her hips and clapping along to the beat. I just love to watch her be happy. It's all love on the dance floor.

No worries between us, just two people having a good time and celebrating our love for each other.

Her arms go around my neck and she starts grinding against me. My hands move to her hips and I'm mesmerized. She better stop before she starts something.

Before I can even add fuel to the fire, she's pulled away by the director and producer for a very important business matter. She's apologizing and I'm standing here, looking stupid.

We're spending time together, in our own little space, and they steal her away just to make her work again. Did she not just get back from all that earlier?

So, I'm just looking around for people that I could recognize and I see nobody.

Ryker and Darian are upstairs, probably gambling and winning. That's all he's been wanting to do since he got here.

I'm guessing Cam and Cassidy didn't get invited to this party. I'm shocked since they've been following us around with their other friends.

The bar is my only option right now. I just decide to wait on my love there and order a small drink. Not many guests are around the bar so the bartender has a little time on his hands. Sounds like he's arguing with one of the guests but I pay it no attention. Probably just drunk.

Once that song goes off, a slow song takes its place and I hear an excessive amount of sobbing. Like somebody's truly hurt. That's when I glance over to the bartender arguing with the guest and I'm being nosey.

"Let's get you ho-"

"No! I'm good. I just...at least, get me a water. Let me chill out for a minute."

That voice...I know exactly who that is...

"Journee?"

****
Ooop!

First of all, never interrupt somebody when they're about to get their grub on in the bathroom. How rude of Ryker lol

Second, what do you think will happen? Do you think he actually saw Journee?

Thanks for reading! Until next time!
