Marsha smiled at him from the doorstep wrapped in her nurses cloak. ‘Is that breakfast I smell?’ ‘Yes ma’am.’ ‘And the high protein sna...k?’ ‘Ready when you are.’ She closed the door behind her and reached for the belt of his dressing gown. She undid the knot in one deft movement and whisked the robe off him. ‘A twirl, please,’ she said. Andy obliged, rotating slowly until he faced her again. ‘I have been imagining that all week,’ she said and then undid the clasp on her cloak and pulled. It seemed to him that each had seen the essence of the other, but didn’t trust what they saw. They each wanted to hear the opinions of others to validate what they had seen.Georgia rose and hugged Oscar. She said, “It’s good to see you again. I missed you.”“I missed you too,” Oscar said before turning the hug into a passionate kiss. He was hoping to turn the kiss into a visit to his room.Breathless, Georgia said, “That’s enough for now. I need to talk with Debbie alone for a while.”Her comment. ‘This better?’ She nods, seeming to go into a hypnotic state, smiling as she stayed there, leaning against this man that brought her comfort so easily. They both sat there in silence, a very comfortable silence, as he closed his own eyes, smiling as the waiter came back and looked at the two, with the plates in his hands. Moving them down in front of them, they both opened their eyes slowly, as he clapped his hands in front of them gently. ‘Réveillez vous maintenant, vos crevettes sont prêtes.’. Not that they made a scene — no one did anything to ruin Gwen's day — but I'm glad Robert recognized distant storm clouds when he saw them.Frankly, the whole thing, as wonderful as it was, took too long. If it had been up to me, I would have taken Gwen to the hotel across from the chapel as soon as the minister pronounced us wed. Waiting until the reception finished was torment. Getting through the airport and onto our flight, further tested my patience. Hawaii. My bride wanted Hawaii, I took.
