Chapter 50 - Magic
The next morning, Jo wakes up and sees Dart's place is empty. She sits up and hears Dart talk, but she can't make out what he's saying. He comes into the bedroom carrying a huge box and smiles at her. "Good morning sunshine."
Jo rubs her eyes and mumbles: "Morning." Dart puts the box down on the bed and opens it. He rummages through it and pulls out a black, short dress. He turns it around to show Jo the front and Jo starts to smile as she sees the cartoon version of Dart printed on it. "Awesome! I'm wearing that today!"
Dart smiles and says: "There's more Dart stuff in here. But it's mostly stuff with you on it." Dart starts sorting the clothing in it, making stacks by size. He hands Jo a T-shirt and a sleeveless shirt with him on it.
Jo smiles wide and says: "Awesome! I love these."
Dart says: "There are also a bunch of notepads and two water bottles for you." Jo gets up and walks over to him to look at the stuff with the art of her on it. She chuckles when she sees the range of items. Dart ordered shorts, different types of shirts, water bottles and towels.
"It looks great, I can't wait to see the guys wear these."
They shower together, savoring the time they have alone. When they get out of the shower, Dart brushes Jo's hair in front of the mirror. Jo braids her hair herself and Dart wraps his arms around her, stroking her skin slowly. He kisses her neck and Jo moans softly. "Careful handsome. I'm pretty sure you have to work soon."
Dart grins and says: "Hmm, yeah I know. You're just way too tempting."
Jo laughs and says: "I'll get dressed then, while you shave." He pouts a little and Jo licks his bottom lip, before running out of the bathroom. She puts on the tiny white bikini and puts the little black dress that Dart ordered for her over it. She looks in the mirror and winks at herself. With the strings tied in her neck, it clearly shows what she's wearing underneath.
She grabs her flip-flops and picks up the two new water bottles. She rinses them and fills them with water in the kitchen and puts them in a beach bag. She puts some headphones in the bag and adds a few pieces of fruit. She finds her sunglasses and places them near the bag. She looks up and sees Dart coming up to her with eyes full of desire.
He says in a low voice: "I thought you were going to get dressed to make it easier on me."
Jo plays innocent and says: "You ordered this dress yourself."
Dart groans and says: "I'm not talking about the dress, you evil woman."
Jo laughs and asks: "If it's not the dress, than what is it?"
Dart gives her a glare and asks: "Are you going to work like that?" Jo shakes her head and grabs the sunscreen from the breakfast bar. She rubs the sunscreen on her arms, legs and cleavage. She asks Dart to help her with her neck and back. He takes the bottle from her, but holds his breath while he applies it.
Jo lifts the dress with a grin and he grumbles. "Not applying it there, because there's no way I am going to let you show this bikini to anyone else." Jo turns around with a wicked look in her eyes as she applies some sunscreen on her tummy. Dart stares at her fingers and mumbles: "I'm calling in sick."
Jo lays her hand on his forehead and says: "You feel hot mister. You look it too." He chuckles and pulls her close, to look over her shoulder and stares at the wall. He takes a deep breath and tries to control the desire burning inside.
He suddenly remembers something and asks: "If you are not going to work like that... Than where are you going?"
Jo grins and says: "You're a bit slow this morning, handsome." Jo steps back and puts the sunscreen in her bag, waiting for Dart to realize she is coming with him. She walks over to her bedside table and picks up the book she has been trying to read for the past few weeks. But she has been way too tired to read more than a few pages at a time lately. Dart comes in after her and puts a tank top and shorts on. Both with the cartoon version of her on it.
He walks over to Jo and says: "You're coming with me to the beach, aren't you?" Jo nods, smiling at him. Dart looks her over with his signature smile on his lips and then says: "You deserve the break, love. Come on, let's go." Jo grabs her bag and puts her sunglasses on. Dart grabs his wet suit and surfboard from the porch and they walk off together, holding hands.
Dart leads her to the coffee cart, knowing all to well that she needs her coffee in the morning. But the guy behind it looks a bit too happy to see her. Jo orders a cappuccino and the guy winks at her. Dart pulls her close and kisses her slow, as Jo wraps her arms around his neck. "Bye love. I am off to meet Noa and teach some kids how to surf."
Jo says: "Bye handsome. See you in a bit." She waves and watches him walk off.
The guy behind the cart clears his throat and says: "Here you go. Your cappuccino. Have fun out there."
Jo says: "Oh I will. I'll enjoy the view, while soaking up the sun." She walks on, taking a sip of the coffee and when she looks up she sees Dart setting up for the kids. Noa waves at her and Jo walks up to her. They hug each other warmly and Jo says: "Good morning Noa. How are you?"
"I'm doing pretty good. Hiring Dart has been a very profitable decision so far. And this teaching kids thing was his idea. So I'm curious to see how he does." She looks at Jo's dress and asks: "Is that drawn by the same guy that drew the version of you on Dart's shirt?"
Jo nods and says: "Yes. Drawn by the same guy, Pierre. I love it!"
Noa says: "That guy sure is talented, you can tell who it is in a glance." Jo smiles and turns around when she hears someone yell her name. Dylan and Kane are walking up to her, Dylan being the one who yelled out her name of course. Kane has a little boy on his shoulders and next to Dylan walks a little girl, refusing to hold his hand. Jo chuckles, looking at the stubborn, little blonde girl.
Dylan hugs Jo and then looks at Noa, before hugging her too. Noa stands there a bit flustered, but Dylan pretends not to notice. "Hey girls! Let me introduce you to my pretty niece."
The little girl looks angry and says: "I'm not pretty! I'm tough!" Jo smiles wide and kneels down to look the girl in the eyes.
"You sure are tough. Good for you. I'm Jo, nice to meet you." The little girl shakes her hand and smiles slightly.
Noa kneels down to shake her hand too and the girl asks: "Are you tough too?"
Jo and Noa get up, flex their muscles and say: "Of course we are! Tough girls are the best ones!" The girl gets all excited and smiles wide.
Dart shows up behind Jo and says: "Three tough girls in one place? I think I'm a little scared now." The little girl giggles and shakes her fist at Dart. He backs up with his hands in the air.
Jo laughs and turns to Kane and the little boy and asks: "Who is this handsome boy, Kane?" Kane tells the boy to hang on and hugs Jo with the boy still on this shoulders.
The boy touches her hair and says: "Pretty."
Jo smiles and Kane says: "This is my nephew, he is even less talkative than I am."
Jo looks at the boy and says: "If the words he does say are words like that, I'm fine with it."
The boy giggles and says: "Hi!" Jo says hi back to him and so do Noa and Dart.
Dart asks: "Are you here to learn how to surf?"
The little girl jumps up and down and yells: "Yes!" Dart chuckles and holds his hand out to her.
She takes it and Dylan grumbles: "Of course she takes his hand in a heartbeat."
Jo laughs and says: "That's because he acknowledged that she was a tough girl." Kane puts his nephew down and the boy grabs Jo's hand. Jo looks down at the little hand in hers and asks: "Do you want me to walk you over there?" The boy smiles and nods his head. Jo ruffles up his hair and says: "Okay. Follow me." The boy squeezes her hand as she walks him over to Dart. Dart has already put the tough girl on one of the surfboards laid out on the beach and she is pretending to surf. Jo smiles at the sight and Dart crouches down to talk to the boy.
"You sure picked the most beautiful girl out here to bring you to me."
The little boy nods and says: "Pretty."
Dart smiles and says: "She sure is. And do you want to know a secret? She loves surfers." The boy looks up at Jo and Jo nods at him.
He says: "Cool!" He jumps on a surfboard, ready to learn how to surf. Dart welcomes a few more kids and Jo walks back to Dylan and Kane.
The men have spread out a huge plaid blanket and even brought two parasols with them and a cooler stuffed with food and drinks. Dylan asks: "Jo, what's with the dress? Now we see him when we look at you."
Jo laughs and says: "I love it. But I'm quite sure he has stuff for you to wear too, the next time you train with him."
Kane says: "I sure hope it's not a shirt with him on it."
Jo chuckles and says: "I promise you it's not." Dylan invites her to sit down and tells her he put her bag against the cooler. Jo finds a spot in the shade and looks at Dart, fooling around with the kids.
Dylan says: "Kane, that damn nephew of yours. He has more game than we do."
Kane says: "More than you do, you mean!"
Jo laughs and says: "Dylan, you might talk too much. The little boy just showed you that you don't need a lot of words to get a girl to hold your hand."
Kane laughs out loud and says: "I'm so taking that as a compliment too!"
Dylan pokes Jo's side and says: "You've got guts lady! Have you forgotten how strong I am?" Jo turns to him and looks him all over.
"Nope, not forgotten that at all. Also haven't forgotten that I have absolutely nothing to fear from you." She sticks out her tongue and he laughs.
"Yeah, yeah. Hard on the outside, soft on the inside."
Jo smiles and says: "Hey, you have to protect that gooey inside somehow, right?" Dylan nods and grins at her. They all look at the kids, having a great time with Dart.
Kane says: "He's good at it. All those kids adore him."
Jo looks at it with eyes full of love and says: "Yes, look at how excited they are. So cute." Dylan stares at Noa, who is helping someone pick out a board to rent. Jo catches him staring and says: "She asked me about you, the first time I met her. She was stunned to see such a huge movie star here."
Dylan looks at her and mumbles: "You always notice everything around you. That's so damn annoying."
Jo grins and says: "Oh really? So you will just ask her out on a date yourself?"
Dylan sits up and says: "Hell no!"
Kane gets up and says: "Maybe I should then. She is pretty sexy."
Dylan jumps up and says: "No! I'll do it!" Kane and Jo laugh as Dylan runs off.
Kane looks at his nephew and says: "I didn't expect him to do so well. He is normally very shy." The little boy turns around to them and waves. Jo waves back and he smiles, before practicing his surf moves again. Kane looks at Jo and says: "It might have something to do with you though. He seemed very impressed by you."
Jo says: "And Dart told him I loved surfers."
Kane chuckles and says: "Yeah, even little boys want to impress a pretty girl."
Jo looks over at Noa and Dylan and sees Noa is blushing a deep red. She looks at Jo and Jo mouths: "Go for it!" Noa shrugs and looks at Dylan again, nodding her head. Dylan turns around and walks back to them, rubbing his neck. Jo catches Noa staring at Dylan's behind and points at Noa, sticking her tongue out. Noa gives her a wink and a thumbs up. Jo chuckles and Dylan sits down next to her.
"She said yes." He breathes out and doesn't seem to believe it.
Kane winks at Jo and says: "Well done bro."
Noa grabs a surfboard and wades into the shallow water, while Dart takes his time to explain some things to the kids and makes them form a line. Dylan's niece is the first in line, dancing with excitement. Dart picks the girl up and puts her down on the surfboard that Noa is holding steady. She stands up and Dart holds her waist. The girl grins and puts one foot in front of the other, spreading her arms. Dart lets go of her, but keeps his arms close and compliments her. The girl cheers and jumps into Dart's arms. Dart chuckles and drags her feet through the water, before setting her down on the sand.
He picks up the next kid and they all get to stand on the board, one a bit more scared than the other. The last one to go is Kane's little nephew. He looks a bit nervous and turns around to Kane. Kane gives him a thumbs up and the boy points at Jo. Jo smiles and stand up to give him two thumbs up. The boy cheers and holds his arms out to Dart. Dart lifts him onto the surfboard. The boy makes fists and tries to find his balance. Dart says something to him and he stands up straight, looking real proud. Dart lifts him off the board and puts him down on the beach.
Dart kneels down and all the kids gather around him. They all jump up and cheer and run towards an ice cream stand. They all get ice cream from Dart and then run over to their families, waving at him. Kane's nephew sits down next to Jo and asks: "Did you see?"
Jo smiles and says: "I sure did. You looked so cool!" The boy smiles wide and crawls over to Kane leaning against Kane's side as he eats his ice cream.
Kane messes up the boys' hair and says: "You made uncle Kane proud. You did really well."
Jo turns to the little girl and says: "And you looked very tough on that board." The girl smiles proudly and eats her ice cream.
Dylan says: "You scared me a little girl, looking that tough. I'm proud of you." The girl climbs on Dylan's lap, leaning back against his chest as she enjoys her ice cream. Dylan looks so happy that Jo can't help but smile at them. Dart and Noa clean everything up and then come over to where Jo and the rest are sitting.
Dart sits down behind Jo, with a leg on either side of her. "Hello gorgeous. That went amazingly well."
Jo leans back and kisses him softly, before saying: "It was great! They all had so much fun." Dart wraps his arms around her belly and nuzzles her neck. Noa looks at Dylan with a soft smile, thinking he looks cute with his niece on his lap. The girl has gone quiet and is getting sleepy. Dart feels a soft tap on his shoulder and turns around a bit, pulling Jo with him.
The little boy is looking at Dart's arms around Jo and asks: "Your girl?" Dart smiles and nods. The boy thinks for a second and says: "Sorry."
Jo asks: "Why are you sorry?"
The boy looks at her and says: "For hand."
Dart laughs and says: "I know a lot of men who could learn something from you boy. But it's okay. I will make an exception for you. You can hold my girl's hand. But don't you dare kiss her."
The boy stares at him and then looks at Jo, before looking at Dart again and saying: "Thank you."
Kane chuckles and says: "Wow, you sure got game. You should teach uncle Kane how to do it. Dart won't let me near his pretty girl." The boy smiles wide and looks all proud.
Dylan says: "I think we should take these little monsters back to their parents." The girl fell asleep and Dylan gets up carefully, holding her close to his chest. Kane gets up too and holds his hand out to the little boy.
The boy looks at Jo and says: "Bye pretty!"
Jo smiles and says: "Bye!"
The boy puts his hand in Kane's and Kane says: "Bye guys! See you in a bit."
Noa lays down on the plaid and closes her eyes. Dart pulls Jo close and licks her neck. Jo bites her lip, trying not to moan. She feels him grin against her skin and whispers: "Please don't."
He whispers: "One more time." Jo closes her eyes and braces herself. Dart licks from her shoulder, all the way to her earlobe. Jo shivers and covers her mouth, trying to stifle her moan.
Her cheeks are bright red and she hears Noa say: "You should have bought yourself some ice cream too, Dart."
Dart grins at her and says: "But they don't sell this flavor." Jo covers her face and sighs.
Noa laughs and says: "Don't be embarrassed Jo. I know it's all his fault."
Jo looks at Noa and asks: "Are you going on a date with Dylan?"
Dart looks at Jo and asks: "What? Noa and Dylan?"
Noa sits up and says: "Yeah. You said go for it, so I went for it. He's really hot though, so that might make a conversation difficult."
Jo laughs and says: "Not with Dylan. He talks enough for the both of you. And he looks hard and strong, but he's a softy on the inside. I really like him."
Dart squeezes her tight and says: "Stop talking about him like he's a prize or something."
Jo giggles and says: "Well, he kinda is."
Dart growls and says: "I'm going to toss you in the ocean if you keep this up."
Jo looks at him with a defying look in eyes and says: "If you do that, I'm taking my dress off."
Dart bites her shoulder and Noa laughs. "You two are great together. You seem like a perfect match." Noa gets up and says: "I'm going back to work! You can stay Dart, there are no lessons planned. And if something comes up, I'll let you know."
Jo gets up and picks up her bag, to get her water bottle and drinks from it. Dart looks inside the bag and gets a banana out of it. Jo sits down, facing Dart and he strokes her ankle, until he suddenly waves at something behind her. Jo looks over her shoulder and sees Shaun and Nikki walk up. Shaun is carrying his surfboard and a picnic basket with Nikki. Shaun smiles at them and puts the picnic basket down. Jo turns around to them and Nikki sits down next to her, while Shaun sits down across from her. "Hey guys! Did the big boss give you some time off?"
Shaun nods and says: "Yeah there are a few games on this afternoon, so Jake can handle it on his own."
Nikki says: "Yes! And Maria is there too on Sundays, so he has a pair of extra hands."
Shaun says: "Jake gave us this picnic basket though. He made us promise to find you and share it with you."Jo opens the basket and sees a container with her name on it. She pulls the lid off and looks at a slice of cheesecake.
She smiles wide and says: "I love you!"
Dart asks: "Are you talking to the cheesecake or one of us?"
Jo sticks out her tongue and then says: "To the cheesecake of course." They laugh and Shaun hands her a fork.
Nikki says: "Wow, there's even cold pizza. And sandwiches and fruit. Jake is spoiling us." Dart eats a sandwich and then grabs a bowl of strawberries, getting lost in thought.
Shaun asks: "Special memories connected to strawberries, Dart?"
Dart snaps out of it and says: "Yeah, especially strawberries from Jake's picnic basket." Jo smiles and looks at Dart all dreamy.
"Oh yes. Very nice memories."
Shaun says: "I have the feeling I shouldn't ask more."
Nikki says: "It's a shared memory at least."
Jo says: "Yes. It started with a picnic with Jake though. One where he introduced me to Dart and then left us alone to talk." Dart feeds her a strawberry and Jo sucks on his fingers for a second.
His eyes flash with desire and he says: "I was completely under your spell back then and I still am."
Nikki sighs and says: "You are way too cute together."
Shaun says: "The more you see these two in action, the more you realize how well they go together. And that no one stands a chance with either of them."
Nikki nods and says: "Yes. You're totally right. You can feel the love they have for each other." Dart leans over to Jo with a grin and kisses her slow and deep. Nikki fans herself and says: "We're right here you guys!"
Dart breaks the kiss and says: "Sorry, not sorry."
Shaun chuckles and says: "Leave them be Nikki. We can always look the other way." Shaun drinks some water and gets up. He looks at Dart and says: "Do you have time to surf?" Dart looks at Jo and she nods at him.
"Go on! Have fun! We'll be watching!" Dart gets up and walks towards his surfboard with Shaun, talking and laughing.
Nikki says: "They could be brothers."
Jo nods and says: "Yeah, they could easily be family. They are a lot alike."
Nikki asks: "So how do you love a boy like that?" Jo looks at her and blinks a few times.
"Well, I can only speak for myself. I loved him with all my heart from the very start and didn't give up. Even when he was trying to step back. He didn't think he was right for me and had trouble believing in my love. And well with my history...he was afraid his world would end up hurting me."
Kane sits down quietly and says: "His world kinda did, with that bitch Anna."
Dylan sits down and says hi to Nikki. He nods at Jo and says: "We thought he would never settle down with someone. He just dated all those stupid bimbo's for show, because it was good for promotional reasons. And then used his free time to train, surf and hide from people in his house."
Nikki looks at Dylan and asks: "He wasn't always this open and friendly?"
Kane chuckles and says: "Nope. All Jo's fault."
Dylan nods and says: "When we met Jo for the first time, we were shocked. We had never seen Dart that way. And Jo? She was a rock star. She turned down one of the biggest movie stars and he sulked all night."
They laugh together and Nikki says: "I wish I was more like you Jo. I would be too afraid to turn down someone like that."
Jo looks at her and says: "I doubt it Nik. He was a real creep, I am pretty sure you wouldn't have gone along with it either. My history just brings out the bitch in me, when I run into guys like that. But never let a guy come close when you don't want him to."
Nikki thinks for a second and says: "I should just speak my mind more. I'm always afraid that people will laugh at me."
Dylan says: "Some people might. But those are the people you turn your back on, girl. I know you have to smile and be nice in your line of work, but even Jo threw a guy out."
Jo nods and says: "The right people come to the surface when you stand up for yourself. The people that admire that side of you, are the ones worth befriending. Like these two guys." Kane opens the cooler and pulls out a bottle of water with a slice of lemon in it and hands it to Jo. Jo takes it and immediately takes a few sips. "Thanks! Just what I needed."
Kane turns to Nikki and asks: "Would you like one too?" Niki nods and shows the guys the picnic basket. They dive into it and soon there's no food left in it. The girls laugh, before staring at the ocean to see Shaun and Dart surf, with huge smiles on their faces. Kane says: "There they go. We're not important any more." He looks at Dylan, to see him staring at the ocean too. He follows Dylan's gaze and sees Noa's surfing with the guys. He leans back and closes his eyes, enjoying the silence.
Nikki whispers: "They look so hot together."
Dylan's voice is all dreamy when he says: "Yeah."
Jo laughs softly and says: "We're pathetic."
Kane mumbles: "Indeed."
The surfers come back to them eventually, all smiles and the spectators stare at them. Jo says: "I swear he looks the hottest right after surfing." Nikki and Dylan both sigh. Shaun squeezes the water out of his hair and Dart runs his fingers through his blonde locks. Dart falls down next to Jo, leaning back on his elbows and she stares at his happy face and wet body. Nikki and Dylan both lost the ability to speak, the second Noa and Shaun sit down.
Noa and Shaun exchange looks and Noa says: "I thought he was the talker Jo!"
Jo chuckles and says: "It's the post-surf-magic. It will wear off eventually."
Noa raises her eyebrows and says: "The what now?"
Jo breaks her eyes away from Dart's abs and looks at Noa. "I think Dart looks the hottest, right after surfing. The happiness on his face, the messy hair and that wet body... Damn. I stirs me every single time."
Shaun asks: "I have that too?"
Nikki whispers: "Yes." Shaun looks at her all surprised. Noa stares back at Dylan and sees the desire in his eyes.
She smiles slightly and says: "That's an awesome power to have. I wish someone would have told me sooner."
Dylan smirks and says: "I'm pretty happy no one did, until now."
Noa gets up and asks: "Want to go for a walk with me?" Dylan gets up and they walk off together.
Nikki stares at Shaun and Shaun is starting to feel uncomfortable. Nikki's phone beeps and she looks at it, before sighing. "I have to go home." Jo was daydreaming about licking salty drops from Dart's skin and looks at Nikki a bit dazed. Nikki gets up and they all say goodbye to her. Shaun and Kane take a beer from the cooler and talk about Shaun's house.
Dart pulls Jo down to him and asks: "What were you thinking of, before Nikki said she had to leave?"
Jo blushes and asks: "Want me to show you?" Dart raises an eyebrow and smiles at her. Jo stares at his abs for a second and then slowly licks a salty drop from his skin. Dart moans and Jo lifts her head to stare into his eyes, before licking another drop off his chest. Dart runs a hand through his wet hair and rubs a wet finger across his lips. Jo winks at him and leans over to lick his lips. Dart pulls her on top of him and kisses her passionately.
Kane says: "Get a room you guys! There are kids on this beach!"
Shaun laughs and says: "They look hot together though. I don't mind watching." Jo sits up to look at him and he sticks his tongue out. Dart grumbles and sits up, holding Jo close to him.
Jo tries to hide her laugh against Dart's shoulder, but he notices and asks: "What are you laughing about?" Jo shakes her head and bites her lip. Dart grumbles some more and Jo looks into his eyes, seeing he's clearly annoyed.
"Want me to tell you, handsome?" Dart nods and kisses the corner of her mouth. "I just thought it was funny how quickly you snapped out of it when Shaun said that. Especially for someone who is used to people seeing him do that and a lot worse." Kane and Shaun laugh and agree with her.
Dart glares at her and says: "That's not funny, all of that stuff wasn't with you."
Jo blushes and asks: "So with me it's different?"
Dart says: "Yeah of course it is. I love you and I'm possessive and jealous and all those stupid things." He sighs and Jo takes his face in her hands, staring into his eyes.
"I love you too Dart. And I had to get used to seeing other women looking at you and coming on to you. That's a lot worse than Shaun saying he doesn't mind watching. Which he probably said to annoy you."
Shaun chuckles and Kane says: "He wasn't even watching. You're so easily annoyed when it comes to Jo, Dart." Jo gets up from his lap and gets a beer and a water from the cooler.
She hands Dart the beer and says: "Here, drink this and calm down." Dart leans his elbows on his knees and Jo sits down in front of him. He drinks his beer in silence, while Jo sips her water. He plays with the bikini strings in her neck and Jo shivers.
Dart licks the skin behind her ear and whispers: "I'm sorry. I don't want to do all of that to you in public. But I can't help myself when I'm with you. And then I end up getting annoyed, when it's all my own fault."
Jo says: "Not all your fault, but yes you went surfing. That's all on you."
Dart chuckles and says: "Yeah, I'll try to stay off the board when you're around."
Jo shakes her head and says: "No, don't do that. Just come straight home with me next time."
Dart laughs and says: "Okay, it's a deal. What about this bikini though?"
"What bikini?" Dart pulls at the strings in her neck and they come loose.
He kisses the back of her neck and then mumbles: "Yeah, what bikini?" Jo holds her breath for a second and asks Kane to hand her her bag.
He does and she says: "I'm pretty sure we're going home soon, so I'm saying goodbye right now." Shaun and Kane stare at her as she gets up, not sure what she means by that. She ties the strings in her neck again and looks down at Dart. She has a wicked grin on her face and says: "Think fast." She pulls her dress up and takes it off. Within seconds Dart has lifted her up and is running home. Jo hears Shaun and Kane laugh in the distance.
They don't even make it inside the house, Dart lays her down on the grass in front of the house and pulls at all the strings with a grin. He covers her body with his and licks her neck slowly. Jo moans and pushes her nails into the skin of his back. Dart kisses her to stifle her moaning and they become one in a wild, passionate rhythm. Dart lays on top of her, catching his breath and Jo mumbles: "You're heavy."
Dart whispers: "I can't get up yet. And stay quiet." Jo hears footsteps coming closer and holds her breath. Dart bites his lip, trying not to laugh. He sees Maria walking onto the porch and knocking on the door. She leaves a big bag in front of the door and writes a note. She puts the note in the bag and turns around, before walking out of the gate. Dart starts laughing and Jo has turned a deep red all over. Jo grabs her dress from the bag and puts it on.
Dart says: "Imagine Maria seeing my bare ass, walking into the garden." He bursts out in laughter and Jo joins him, tears rolling down her cheeks. "I just figured I would be less embarrassed if she saw my ass, than you would have been in the same situation."
Jo covers her mouth and says: "Oh God. Just the idea alone. She has seen a lot of my body already, but still." Dart pulls her onto his lap and kisses her.
He slides his hands under her dress and says: "I better take you inside, before another visitor shows up."
Jo laughs and says: "And I'm curious about that bag."
Dart says: "I hope it's filled with sexless, covering everything up, clothes. Because you're killing me every day."
Jo says: "I'm pretty sure you would still find me sexy in the most ugly, covered up outfit. You're done for mister, there's no helping you." Jo bends over to pick up her bikini and Dart clears his throat.
"Damn Jo, go inside. Now!" He chases her inside and Jo squeals. He picks her up and puts her down on the breakfast bar, looking at her with eyes full of desire. He looks at her dress and pulls it up. "Let's hide that handsome guy on your dress."
Jo smiles and says: "If I have the real thing as a replacement, I'm fine with it." Dart slides a hand over the inside of her thigh and showers her neck with kisses. Jo pulls his hair and moans.
He says: "Now let's see how hard I can make you scream this time." He moves down, kissing her collarbone, chest, stomach and belly. He looks up at her, smiling at the sight of her flushed cheeks and red lips. He puts his hands on her thighs and slowly licks the skin between his fingers. Jo moans and leans back as she shivers. Dart teases her very slowly and Jo feels her consciousness slip away. Pretty soon she is drowning in a pool of desire and screams out his name several times. She is sprawled out on the breakfast bar, unable to move. Her breath comes out shaky and a tear rolls down her cheek.
Dart lifts her up and she hangs in his arms, while he walks her over to the bathroom. He holds her close and turns the shower on. He steps into it with her in his arms and slowly puts her down. She leans against him, her legs shaking heavily. Dart kisses her forehead and holds his arm around her waist. Jo closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. Her legs have stopped shaking, but her heart is still beating very fast. Dart takes out her braid and washes her hair gently. He whispers loving words and soaps up her body carefully. Jo opens her eyes and looks at his hands, moving over her body gently.
She puts her hands on his chest and looks up at him. Dart can tell that she's still not completely there when their eyes meet, but a smile is starting to form on her lips. He smiles back at her, playing with her hair. He asks: "Can you stand on your own, love?" Jo nods slowly and takes a step back, leaning against the wall with a satisfied smile. Dart washes his hair and body fast, all the while keeping an eye on her. He tells her to stay there and closes the tap. He gets out and comes back with a big, soft towel, wrapping her in it. They walk over to the sink and Dart brushes her hair and braids it.
Jo smiles at him in the mirror and says softly: "Thank you."
He winks at her and says: "You're welcome gorgeous." Jo's stomach growls violently and she looks shocked. Dart chuckles and says: "You obviously worked up an appetite. What do you feel like eating?"
"Cheeseburger."
Dart smiles and says: "You've got it." He dries himself off and puts on some shorts, before ordering the food on his phone. Jo walks into the bedroom and puts some underwear on, before opening the front door and grabbing the bag Maria left for her. She reads the note.
Dear Jo.
Your clothes for the coming week.
Please take a picture of the outfit every morning and tag me and the web shop.
Thanks in advance.
Jo drags the bag inside and takes out the clothes, laying them out on the coffee table. Dart sits down on the couch and watches Jo matching things to create outfits. Jo tries on a short black dress with cherries on it. She adjusts the spaghetti straps and smiles. "Outfit number one." Next is a white shirt with a skull on it, which leaves one of her shoulders bare. She matches it with a ripped denim skirt. "Outfit number two." She tries on a shirt with an evil kitty on it and matches it with ripped, tight jeans. "Number three."
She puts on a black dress, with spiderweb-lace details. Dart smiles wide, thoroughly enjoying the private fashion show. Next up are distressed hot-pants with a dark grey halter top, with a red anarchy symbol on it. Jo smiles and says: "And my red dress makes six. A weeks worth of outfits from the boutique."
Dart says: "I love them all! But the cherry dress is my favorite."
Jo smiles at him and says: "I knew you were going to say that." Jo carries all the clothes into the bedroom and puts them away. She pulls a box from the bottom of the bag and opens it, inside are black sneakers with spikes and black army boots with red laces. She does a happy dance and carries them into the bedroom as well.
There's a knock on the door and Dart opens it to take the food from the delivery guy. Jo takes off the last outfit she tried on and walks into the living room in her underwear. Dart has unpacked the food on the table and is sitting on the floor. Jo sits down next to him and almost drools at the sight of the juicy cheeseburger. Dart looks at her with a soft smile and says: "Go on, love. Eat it." Jo takes a big bite and closes her eyes, enjoying it to the fullest.
Dart starts eating his burger, glancing at her to see her happy face. After eating the last bite, Jo leans back against the couch with a satisfied look on her face. Dart looks at her and eats his last bite too. He gets up to get two beers from the kitchen and hands one to Jo. She gives him such a grateful smile that he chuckles. "You look completely satisfied, love."
Jo says: "Hmm, I am Mister Perfect." Dart wraps his arm around her shoulder and Jo leans against him. They drink their beer in silence, until both of their phones beep. Jo ignores it for a few seconds and then gets up to take her phone from the beach bag. She sees it's a message from Dylan.
Dear god Jo!
I think I'm in love.
Jo smiles at her phone and says: "Dylan is in love." Dart says the same thing about Noa at the same time. They laugh together and Jo eventually says: "I knew it."
Dart says: "I'm happy for them. They can both use some love in their lives."
"Yes, I'm happy for them too."
Jo sighs and Dart strokes her upper arm. "Something wrong, love?"
Jo says: "Not really. Just sad the weekend is almost over."
Dart kisses her forehead and says: "It's not over yet. We could discuss some things about the wedding right now."
Jo nods and says: "I'd like that. I've been wondering about our vows."
Dart says: "I've actually started writing my own." Jo turns to look at him and sees he's blushing slightly.
"You have?"
He looks into her eyes and says: "Yes. I want it to be as personal as possible. It's really hard though." Jo stays silent and thinks about it.
"Yeah, I'm not sure I can find the words to describe how much I love you either. Hmm, I could promise to share my cheesecake with you though." Dart chuckles and kisses her softly. Jo gets up to find a pen and grabs one of the notepads with cartoon Dart on it. She writes down whatever comes to mind.
patient, caring, funny, hot, sexiest smile, strong, excellent lover.
She laughs softly and continues.
In your arms is my favorite place to be.
The only place I feel really safe.
I want to be in your arms forever...
Dart looks over her shoulder and Jo hides the last few sentences. He reads the words and blushes. Jo puts the notepad away and places her hands against his cheeks. "Dart, I love you so much. You are the remedy to all my pain. You are exactly what I need." She kisses him softly and he pulls her close, to hide his face against her shoulder.
He mumbles: "Don't say things like that."
Jo pulls back and holds his face again to look into his eyes. "Why not?" He tries to look away and hide the tears in his eyes. Jo keeps making eye contact until he gives up.
He whispers: "Because it makes me cry and then I feel like an idiot." A tear rolls down his cheek and Jo kisses it away.
"You will never be an idiot to me. And it makes me happy, when I see those tears. Because it means you really felt what I was saying." She puts a hand on his chest, exactly where his heart is beating for her.
Dart places his hand on top of hers and says: "You're amazing Jo. You're in my heart forever." He squeezes her hand and stares into her eyes.
Jo smiles at him and says: "There! You're done with your vows. That's all I need to hear."
Dart laughs and says: "Okay, I'll go with that."
Jo gets up and says: "Come with me Mister Perfect. I need a lot of cuddling in bed tonight." Dart jumps up and follows her into the bedroom. Jo sits down on the edge of the bed and takes her bra off. Dart takes of his shorts and lays down on his back, with his arm out to Jo's side. Jo lays down with her head on his arm and a hand on his chest. Dart pulls her close and kisses her. They cuddle until they fall asleep.
