Lustful Hearts
Chapter 128: It's Hоlіdау - P1

There were certain things that pushed me over the edge and Joel's laid back attitude was one of them.

After surprising me earlier on in the week with another holiday to Cornwall to stay in the same cottage, I was overly ecstatic and began writing lists of what we would need to take.

Five days on and he was still not packed, despite the fact we were leaving the next day. It was starting to grate on me heavily.

He remained oblivious to it all downstairs playing on his Xbox live, chatting away to his friends, while I was left to pack his suitcase.

I could have left it but for peace of mind I decided to do it, so I knew we had everything we needed.

Zipping up the last of the suitcases I swore, dropping the case down to the floor as the weight alone almost knocked me off balance. I stood yelling at the top of the stairs for Joel, who carried on playing regardless.

I hoisted up the suitcase managing a couple of steps, but soon my balance was thrown off, watching the case hurtling down the stairs.

I stumbled down a couple before falling flat on my backside. I landed with a heavy thump, cursing myself already for trying to carry such a heavy load.

"Izzy, what the fuck?" Joel sprinted around the corner, taking two steps at a time, pulling me up into a hug. "Are you okay?"

"No, I'm not, I think I've broke my bum," I said, pouting with the pain.

He grinned as his hands slowly massaged life back into it. "It's not broken, baby, but any time you need a rub down let me know."

I swiped away his hand. "Go get the other case I want to finish the packing tonight and then I can relax in a bubble bath."

"Am I invited to that?" he asked with a hopeful tone.

"No bubble baths for you as you didn't lend a hand." I made to move away, but he pressed me back up against him.

"Oh come on, I could help massage these aching shoulders and help you unwind in other ways.'

"Yeah sorry, only room for one."

He quickly followed me down the remaining stairs. "Please Iz, you know I could throw in a head massage too, I know how much you like them." "Yeah, and I know how much my reaction turns you on."

He grinned at my reply, any kind of moaning on my part was quickly followed by one hell of an amazing orgasm, but hell I wasn't complaining. "So is that a yes?"

"Throw in a foot massage too and you might just have a deal."

"Done, I've just got to tell the guys I need to leave the game." He lifted the headset up to his lips to let them know.

I walked off only imagining the barrage of abuse he would get stepping away from a game they treated like life or death.

Spilling half of the contents of the bubble bath in the tub, I quickly grabbed some towels and lit some candles.

Joel walked through in just his boxers, offering me a glass of wine before we both submerged under the water.

His soothing hands worked my shoulders, and I let out a soft moan. "Is that good, baby?" he whispered. "Yeah, don't stop."

"Did you make sure you packed the bubble bath for Cornwall?" Joel casually enquired, causing a smile to creep over my face.

"Yes, Joel, I did, you know sometimes I think you enjoy these baths far more than I do. Do you want me to leave you alone with just you and the bubbles?"

I squealed when his hands playfully tickled my ribs, my legs thrashing around in the water, but then finally came to a standstill when he eased off.

"You know I love relaxing here with

you with your sexy, naked body pressed up against me." He playfully rubbed himself against me causing me tomoan, and I had to agree lying here with his hot body against mine was the biggest turn on of them all.

"Mmm me too," I replied, sinking into his touch. He really did have the most amazing hands, but I wasn't about to inflate his ego anymore by paying him any more compliments, he knew he was good.

"I can't wait for us and Rubes to just get away for a week. What time is Elijah bringing her back tomorrow?"

Elijah had taken Ruby for the night, which was most likely be filled with tears of how much he would miss her.

He hadn't taken the news very well and had offered to see if they could come along too, but they couldn't get the time off work.

I hadn't told Joel that part as I couldn't have handled his reaction. Thankfully we were free to go just ourselves, though I knew he would always be just a phone call away.

"First thing before he heads off to work, I'm only hoping there won't be tears."

"Tears?" Joel asked bemusedly. He was well acquainted with Elijah's overly emotional side, but he had experienced more of his meltdowns.

Witnessing the tantrums first hand on several occasions. He was my best friend, and I loved him, but sometimes he veered towards the OTT side.

"Yep, I'm expecting tears from Elijah. He hasn't been apart from her for more than a couple of days, I think a week away will push him over the edge." "Seriously?"

I didn't need to turn around to know he was scowling. "Yes, I actually thought about leaving her with him."

"No," Joel quickly snapped, making me flinch with the harsh tone of his voice.

"Okay, it was just an idea," I said, soothingly stroking my fingers along his wet skin in an effort to placate him.

"She's our dog, Iz, and this is our first

family holiday, I want her with us

He was right, and I could totally

understand where he was coming

from I guess I was easily swayed by

Elijah's persuasive ways. Content

"It was just a suggestion, but you're right."

"I want both my girls with me." The tone of his voice had me turning around. He sounded sad like he thought he was being out of order which certainly wasn't the case.

"Hey, we're going to have an amazing time." I leaned forward brushing my lips against his. We fell into a kiss that almost had me melting in the tub.

I quickly grabbed both glasses, handing one to Joel. "Here's to an amazing holiday." We toasted together and after a few more refills, we more than had the holiday vibe.

"What time did he say again?"

I rolled my eyes for the umpteenth time that morning. I knew Joel was eager to get Ruby back and to set off, but Elijah wouldn't be rushed.

"Eight thirty." It was after eight so he shouldn't be long. I quickly packed some sandwiches and snacks, making sure I had plenty of treats for Ruby.

I was loading up the car when I heard Ruby's bark. I would know it anywhere.

"Hey Iz," Elijah chirped, swinging

open the gate to let an eager Ruby

run up the path. I crouched down and she leapt into my arms, giving me lots of morning kisses. Which soon stopped the moment Joel came outside, minus a shirt.

Elijah's eyes were instantly out on stalks, his eyes devouring every muscle as his tongue flicked over his lips. He was practically salivating. Ruby squirmed in my arms, eager to get to Joel so I passed her over, watching in amusement as she went crazy seeing her daddy.00000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
