The Billionaire's Desire novel Chapter 43

" Nick will you please stop," I say aggravated as I ran up behind Nick. I ripped the bikini set from his large hands.

For the last 10 minutes he has continued to remove the clothes I chose to put in my suitcase. Now I know the reason behind him staying the night before I fly out to Colombia with Hannah.

" There is literally no reason for you to wear such revealing bikini's, who are you trying to impress" he grumbles as he stalks off to the bathroom.

I stared at his back. " myself you fucking idiot, can't I look good for myself" what is it with guys thinking that girls constantly want to do things for the benefit of the opposite sex.

I just want to wear a sexy bikini, hold a gin and tonic and laugh along with my best friend. Is that too much to ask.

"of course you can, but you're too sexy. And I won't be there with you" he sulks as he returns back for the bathroom.

He couldn't be serious. I dropped what I was holding and walked over. My hands around his neck. I leant up on my tiptoes and kissed him tenderly. Nick's arms tightened around me, his face buried in my hair. After our dinner with Hannah and Connor, me and Hannah decided on Columbia as our girls trip.

The boys decided to change their mind and insist that they join but this was strictly a girls trip. I owed Hannah that at the very least. Nick didn't have the luxury to leave his work to keep an eye on his girlfriend. We weren't planning on going to any clubs are crazy parties, we really just wanted to relax, eat good food and probably get drunk in our hotel room.

" I'll behave, Nick, I promise," I said, capturing his lips with mine. Nick leant into the kiss, his hand coming to snake around my waist.

" you better" he mumbles leaning back and placing the bikini back in my hand.

I spent the rest of the morning packing my bag. Nick was going to drive me to the airport before leaving for work.

Jack was speechless when I confirmed to him that I would be taking a few days off from work. He was a little too happy for me to leave the country.

I dragged my suitcase out of the house and towards Nick's car. I made sure to lock the door behind me. Kate had already flown out to Columbia. I wasn't going anywhere without her and she agreed to watch us from a distance and not to intrude on our girls trip.

She was happy about leaving England, she wanted to take in that sun.

We got in the car and started driving. I screamed as Nick slammed on the breaks at the end of the street.

" Nick, are you insane"

He turned to stare at me. " forgetting something" he asks.

"no, " I said simply. I had made sure I had everything. I watched at Nick reached over and popped open the glove box. Revealing the small wallet which Is where I kept my passport.

Fuck.

" oh I was looking for that," I said as I quickly grabbed it and placed it into my bag. From the corner of my eye, I could see him smirk. He knew that I was going to admit my mistake and he was right. I don't know how many times I have forgotten something so important as my passport on other trips.

Nick reached over and grabbed my hand. " how were you going to get on the plane without that"

Was it too much to ask, for him to just ignore the fact that I had forgotten the single most important thing for a trip.

" I really thought it was in my bag," I said as I sunk back into the seat. The slight rumble of his throat was the only thing I heard as he continued to drive. After a while, he moved his hand back to his lap but I didn't want him to let go just yet.

I reached over and curled my fingers with his. My small smile on his lips was enough for me to forget him teasing me and just enjoy these last few minutes I have before I leave with Hannah for a small trip.

I want to work on my friendships, ever since I started working I just continued to get progressively worse in keeping my friendships. I needed to try harder.

" it was about time you got here, what were you doing?" Hannah said as we finally pulled up. She sat in the back of Connor's car as he helped bring out her suitcase.

I slipped out of the car. " you said 6.30, it is only 6 now" I said double-checking the time on my phone. Hannah is a lot of things but late isn't one of them. She is incredibly punctual.

Hannah jumped onto the ground and came over to me. I welcomed her hug, I could feel the excitement bubbling within her. It had been a hell of a long time since we had a girls trip.

" I hope you packed some really sexy bikini's I want us to tease the fuck out of the boys" she whispered into my ear, sending a sly smile behind to Connor and Nick who were talking amongst themselves.

" you little whore" I said into her ear. She smacked me when the guys walked over to us. Nick wrapped his arms around my waist and tugged me close. His nose pressed into my neck. " I'm going to miss you, baby," he said kissing me.

I turned around facing him. I ran my fingers through his hair and kissed his lips. " 3 days, try not to miss me too much"

He cupped my jaw, pulling me up. " call me as soon as you get back, I want you to stay at mine"

I grinned. " okay I will" I hadn't even left yet and I was already looking forward to that, that's how much I loved being with Nick. This trip was probably needed more than I had anticipated.

I followed Hannah to our gates after we checked in. I had bought us first-class tickets, as my treat for being such a bad friend. I had also booked the hotel that we were staying at. Naomi wasn't too pleased about my careless spending. It surely was going to leave a dent in my accounts but Hannah was worth it.

I stifled a laugh as I saw Hannah shamelessly flirting with a man just to get him to lift up her suitcase. She was terrible, but I would let her have her fun.

She knows that I would tell her straight if I thought she was going too far. I knew that Hannah wasn't someone to cheat, she had more respect than that.

" oh, how bloody adorable, look over there quick Selene" I moved my eyes up from the menu and saw a small group of elderly men walking through the aisles.

Not only were they just adorable. It was a 60 lads holiday clearly. They were also wearing matching jackets, all donning the signature patterns and styles that I created over 3 months ago.

I giggled. Me and Jack's line was unique, it was rare for us to see our clothes on people on an ordinary day. On record, this was the 3rd time I had seen out clothes on anyone.

" no wonder you're making loads of money. A bunch of rich old men are buying your clothes" she giggled. She took out her phone and started to record an Instagram video of the old guys.

I pushed her out the way when one of the men turned and stared at us. Hannah slowly lowered her phone.

" Hey young girl are you taking pictures" he yelled over. I physically wanted to hide. But to my surprise one of the other men turned around. " little girl, at least get my good side" I parted my lips with surprise as he turned around and posed.

" are you breathing" Hannah whispered before quickly jumping up.

Myself and many other passengers looked on in amazement as these old men posed for Hannah, showing off my jackets.

I jumped up, I walked over and helped adjust one of the men's jackets. " I have 20-year-old models wearing these but you handsome seniors are seriously bringing healthy competition"

" these are yours, Genia!" one of the men shouted behind. A younger women came forward, holding a bunch of tickets. When she locked eyes with me she blew out a heavy breath. " oh my god, what are the odds" she breathed out as she shook her head.

" Guys, this is the designer of your jackets," she tells them all. The surprise was mirrored on their faces.

This was a little too good to be true but I wasn't going to complain.
