“Aww not this weekend, but really soon, I promise. Actually, Memorial Day weekend is when we’re coming. We’ve got Melissa and Trey’s wedding this weekend in Palm Beach. I can’t wait to see y’all play. Ash is taking us all in his plane. Have you ever flown in his plane?”

“I sure have! He’s taken us a few times, it’s pretty badass. Big mother fucker - one of those things the rich and famous fly around in.” He laughs. “I can’t wait to see you guys. We’re gonna have so much fun, Olivia. You think there was a crowd at The Bank, you ain’t seen nuttin yet girl - this is crowd fest. You are gonna love it.”

We talk for about an hour. He tells me the fans really like their music and that their manager has arranged for them to do a music video. I asked him point blank if he’s behaving and staying true to Kyra, and I believe him when he said yes.

“So Olivia, have you found a new smoke buddy yet, or are ya being true to me? And don’t fucking say something like that, because you’d better not find anyone else.”

I have to laugh, “No new smoke buddies, I promise. You’re the only one for me. Matter of fact, I haven’t smoked since you left, can you believe it? I do miss our smoke time, though. Now you’ve made me think about it and I want one. Gee, thanks Todd.”

Ash comes into the bathroom and hears me on the phone. I let him know its Todd and I give him the phone. They talk for a few minutes and he laughs, as he gives the phone back to me. I have no idea what Todd said to him, but I’m sure it was something concerning WMD and it makes me laugh. Todd asks me all about the kids and told me that they all text pretty regularly, which makes me feel so good. He said that Sarah is flying to L.A. this weekend to see Smash, so I guess that fling is still going strong. Sarah doesn’t share much about her private life with anyone, for good reason I guess.

“So, I guess we’ll see you guys in a couple of weeks. The music scene here is pretty fucking awesome. We’re pretty stoked. Listen, I gotta go babe - we’re heading out to play our music. I can’t wait to see everyone. You take care and watch out for my Kyra. Love you. I’ll be better about callin you - I promise. It may just be a text, though. Peace out.”

They’ve only been gone for a week, but it feels like forever. They’ll be home for the holidays, thank God, and hopefully we’ll have one of the holidays in Houston at our new condo and everyone can come. Lainey will have had the baby by then, so we’ll be doing some major celebrating.

Ash and I fly out to Melissa and Trey’s wedding, and I’m looking forward to seeing Palm Beach. I’ve heard it’s beautiful and Ash says I’ll love it.

Once we land in Ft. Lauderdale, we grab our luggage and head to the rental car area, where Ash has rented a sporty navy blue Mercedes convertible.

I gasp and put my hands over my mouth, “Wow! What a gorgeous car, Ash. I love it.”

He opens my door and proudly stands while I get in. “Gotta drive my lady around in style. She’s gettin awfully spoiled, you know.”

I put my seatbelt on and blow him a flirty kiss, “Uh that would be thanks to you Mr. ‘
I Spend Too Much Money
’, Ash Harper.”

The drive to Palm Beach down the scenic coastal A1A highway, and the view of the spectacular mansions, is breathtaking. The day is sunny and as we are driving, I wonder what these people do for a living, to be able to afford these sprawling homes. I attempt to find my favorite, but they are all equally as gorgeous with immaculately manicured grounds. Lush palm trees line the property lines and I love the spanish style of the tiled roofs. Each mansion has a story and I wonder as we pass each one, what lies within?

Once we make it to Palm Beach, we drive down the famous Worth Avenue and my mouth is watering seeing all the shops.

Ash is sensing my astonishment, grins as he remarks, “We’ll come back tomorrow and I’ll take you shopping, Liv. You haven’t lived until you’ve shopped Worth Avenue. We’ll get you some things to take to Paris.” He winks and pats my leg, “How bout it?”

My face lights up, “Are you kidding? Of course I’d love to!”

As we pull into the world famous The Breakers hotel, I’m in awe. The grounds are indescribable. Lush tall palm trees line each side of the long paved drive and there is a long esplanade that follows the drive, which is impeccably landscaped with lush foliage and colorful flowers. Ash leans over to me, as we pull in the long driveway and points out my window, “Beautiful isn’t it?”

I screech, “It’s amazing!”


It was built in 1925 and has played host to many a millionaire and celebrity.”

The valet is there to help us out of the car and we’re escorted inside. I stand in the lobby and gaze at this Gatsby-esque landmark, as Ash gets us checked in.

He takes my hand and leads me to the elevator, as we follow the bellman that holds his arm out waiting for us to enter. Ash has his arm around me and is gently rubbing my shoulder. The bellman notices me smiling and asks, “First time visiting us folks?” Ash looks at me and winks. “It’s this pretty lady’s first time here.” The bellman nods and tips his head, “Wishing you a pleasant and memorable stay ma’am.”

When the door to our room is opened, my mouth falls open and I stand there mesmerized. Ash grins and motions for me to step inside. “Well? Will this do?”

“Wow!” I exclaim. I see a shiny brass plaque that bears the raised words Royal Poinciana Suite and I rub my finger over it. The suite has three balconies, complete with a beach view. I walk into the bathroom and Ash follows me. “Nice digs, huh?”

With two fingers, I touch his chin, “Very nice indeed. I can think of a few things I’d like to do in here.” I give him a seductive little wink.

He playfully grabs my fingers, puts them in his mouth and sucks on them gently. “And I can think of a few things I’d like to do all over this room. We’ll definitely revisit this later.”

We get settled in and Ash calls Ellen to let her know we’ve arrived. I fall onto the bed and kick off my sandals, while Ash calls for some wine and a fruit and cheese tray, as he unpacks our things. When the wine arrives, he pours us each a glass and we head out onto one of the balconies to observe the view. It’s overwhelming. The beach looks so different from our beaches in Texas, and I could get used to this lifestyle. The water is a beautiful blue green and the breeze is blowing softly. The sound of the ocean is relaxing and Ash motions me to sit with him in the chaise lounge. “Let’s relax for a bit. I wanna hold you.” I sit with my back to his front and he begins to rub my shoulders.

“Mmm that feels so good.” My neck arches as breathes into it, softly kissing my ear lobe. We sit silent, just watching the waves of the ocean. We aren’t talking, but there’s no need to. Just being in his arms is so relaxing and tranquil, and I could just stay here forever, wrapped securely in his embrace.

A bit later, I mention how I miss Tommy and the guys, and we talk about them being out on the road and how the girls are going to need our support. Ash tells me that he has the schedule and we will be at every stop we can possibly make. “I thought we’d take my plane when we go to L.A. would you like that?”

I turn around to face him. “So what kind of plane do you have anyway?” I give him a pouty look. “You’ve never even taken me to see it.”

He laughs, “I used to fly a lot, but since I met you, flying just hasn’t been on my list of priorities. Tell you what; I’ll take you to the hangar once we get back home. You’ll love the plane. It’s a Gulfstream and she’s a beauty Liv, just like you.” He lifts my hand and kisses it.

I can only imagine what his plane looks like; I’m so excited to finally get to see it and for him to take me flying. I’ve never been on a private plane before, much less known a pilot, other than Alan, who gave it up once he left the Air Force. I have no idea what a Gulfstream is. But I’m sure it’s over the top though.

Relaxing on the terrace, we decide to forego the rehearsal and make our appearance at dinner. Ash reassures me one will miss us.

“Don’t you think that’s kind of rude? I mean Ellen is probably expecting us.” I reply.

With a devious look, he taps the side of his face with his index finger, “I took the liberty of calling her, and said you had a little headache. I hope you don’t mind, but I thought we’d just stay here a bit longer and get rid of your ‘headache’ if you get my drift.” He winks and smiles that damn arousing look at me. How can I say no to that?

He pulls me into his lap and tickles me. “So, what do you think? Do you need me to make that nagging headache go away? I’ve got incredible curing skills, you know.” He kisses me and I squirm from his tickling. I put my hand up to my head, feigning a headache and cry, “Oh Dr. Harper, my head’s killing me! Please cure me.”

The wine has relaxed me and I really don’t care about going to a rehearsal. Foremost on my mind at this moment is being alone with Ash, enjoying this incredible view, the calming sounds of the ocean, and him making love to me. Lying in the chaise lounge, we rub against each other like two teenagers exploring and I get tingly between my legs, as he moves on top of me. We’re still fully clothed and the feel of him rubbing against me makes me want more. I can feel the wetness forming between my legs, as he gently parts them with his knee.

He groans, “I want you so damn bad right now. You have no idea what you do to me. You are a drug I crave. So sensual, so beautiful.”

His speaking those words sends shivers through my body. The sound of his voice and the way he makes me feel is addicting to me as well. He gently lifts me up, kissing my face then my neck. He stands up, extending his hands, and looks at me to stand, provocatively towards the bed. “Here, let’s get you horizontal. Naked and very horizontal is how I need you to be right now. I want to see your beautiful body lying on that bed in there, spread eagle waiting for me. Look what you do to me, Liv.” I look down and see his erection tenting. He kisses me, as I reach to unzip his pants. He doesn’t resist and quickly steps out of them once they fall to the floor. His erection springs free and that beautiful ‘v’ from his waist down is positively tantalizing. I could stare at it forever, and he catches me staring.

Looking down and giving his hips a little thrust, so his erection dances, he looks at me, “See something you like down there?”

I suck on my index finger and smack my lips as I remove it, “Oh yeah. Something I like very much.”

“So, what are you going to do about it? Got any insanely sexy ideas?” He questions.

“Carpe diem Ash Harper. That’s what I’m going to do about it. Any objections?”

“Not a one. Take me Sunshine. I’m all yours.”

He gently pushes me towards the bed, as he raises my arms and takes my top off. Reaching behind me, he swiftly unhooks my bra exposing my breasts. The breeze from the ceiling fan only intensifies the effect, as my nipples form into tight knots. He kisses each breast and with his hand, moves to slide my panties off. He moves south and murmurs, “Let me see you, Liv. God I love your naked body.” He moves onto his knees and when he sees my totally unclothed body, he is speechless and his face lights up with excitement. “Holy shit. You didn’t. This is so fucking hot, Liv. You’re gorgeous. Look at that. You did that for me?”

“Did what?” I tease. “You like it?” I’d gotten a Brazilian wax before we left, as a surprise for him.

“Like it? Hell No. I LOVE it! Look at how much I love it.” He motions me to look down and I see him rock hard and ready.

“Jesus Liv. When did you do that? Do you even know much I love you?” His hand rubs my bare skin and he splays me with soft kisses. The sensation of the bareness is erotic. His touch and kisses send me over the edge, as my body moves, inviting him to continue.

I’d read about the waxes and how much men like it, so I decided to venture out, yet again further out of the box, and give it a try. I wasn’t sure how he would react, but seeing the surprised and approving look on his face, solidified my decision to go bare. I love the way he makes me feel so sexy.

“God I can’t quit looking at you. This is the best surprise ever. What am I gonna do with you? When did you do this and what prompted it?”

“Well, you can start by getting busy. And I’m not telling my secrets, cause you’ve got a headache to cure and I need some medication.”

Cured of my ‘headache’, we made our appearance at the rehearsal dinner and the wedding the next day is fabulous. David and Ellen have spared no expense in making Melissa’s day epic. Following a beautiful wedding ceremony, Ash suggests we leave the reception early and take a stroll on the beach. The moon is shining on the water and the sound of the waves rolling in is so tranquil. The breeze is blowing lightly, as we walk hand in hand until we find a secluded spot. He motions me to sit on a large towel he’s brought for us. I sit and he takes off my shoes and then he takes his off and rolls up the legs of his pants. I lie back and look up at the beautiful moon and smile. “Find something to smile about?” He asks.

“I have so much to smile about, Ash. This is perfect.”

“No regrets about leaving the reception early?”

“Not a one.”

He turns on his side next to me and strokes my face. He then plants soft little kisses all over my face, which gives me chills. “Liv, I can’t wait until we’re married. I just want you to be my wife. I want you to be Olivia Harper so bad. Wanna just elope? Let’s just do it.”

“Ash, you know we can’t do that. I don’t want a big wedding by any means, but that’s not fair to everyone. I can’t wait either, but we have to have a ceremony, please.”
