You have to swear NOT to tell anyone…

DANIELLE

OMG! You guys hooked up, huh??

MILA

We did! At first, we were just flirting in front of everyone and holding hands. Then we fucked on the second day…but he ended up regretting it and ignoring me.

DANIELLE

I know you. You don’t back down. What happened after?

MILA

I gave him the distance he wanted, but I could tell he didn’t like it. Then he gave in and we had sex since. Every day, multiple times a day!

I smiled wide, reminiscing of all the intimate moments Hudson and I shared over the last week. This man had stamina, I tell you that, but I wasn’t complaining.

DANIELLE

I’m so happy for you, Mila! I know that you had a crush on Hudson of a long time. Is this relationship serious, or could be serious?

I thought about that question for a moment, wanting to sayyes,but I knew that Hudson said it’s all for fun this week while we’re on vacation.

MILA

Well, as of now, it’s all for fun. When we go back home in a few days, he says we won’t be seeing each other any longer because of my dad.

MILA

I’m hoping that I can convince him that this isn’t going to be a fling.

I frowned, thinking about what Hudson and I had was going to come to an end.

DANIELLE

I hope that whatever you guys have turns into something serious. You deserve to be happy.

MILA

Thanks, Danielle!

Iamhappy. I gazed down at Hudson as he continued to sleep. I’ve crushed hard on this man for a long time and tried to push my feelings for him aside. Now that we’ve gotten close and intimate, I think I’m catching feelings for him.I’m falling in love with Hudson.

HUDSON

Ican’t believe this vacation is almost over. I’ve had the best week in my life with the most amazing woman. I know that when we go back to San Francisco in two days, I can’t see Mila anymore. Nelson will kill me if he ever found out that I slept with his daughter. Just thinking about him finding out, knowing I betrayed his trust, had my stomach in knots. But thinking about letting go of Mila after all that we’ve shared together and how happy we’ve been, made my heart drop.

I feel so alive when I’m with her. It’s a feeling that I haven’t ever felt with anyone, even when I was with Courtney. Mila stirs something inside me that wants me to be a better man for her.

It’s the evening of the sunset wedding for Courtney and Kevin. I’d rather stay in with Mila, but the wedding was the reason why we came here to Hawaii in the first place. I slipped my suit jacket on to complete my look. I wore a charcoal-colored suit with a navy blue, silk tie and cognac-colored loafers. I gave myself a final once over in the full-length mirror in the bedroom.

“Mila, are you almost ready?” I called out.

“Yes, I’ll be right out,” she responded from the bathroom, then walked out.
