18 Days With Him I
"What?!" I shouted into my laptop screen that accommodated the face of my line producer who had traveled out of the country for holiday without telling anyone.
"Sorry to bring you this news Moon." He said as he ran a hand through his brown curly hair.
"You know it was your fault. You should have told me you wanted a vacation. I would have provided one for all of us." I shouted again, falling into my comfortable leather chair.
My director and his crew just bailed on our new movie because they couldn't wait for us to come back from our so called 'holiday'. Now I had to make a new contract with another director and they were expensive.
Ash glared at me from the screen, "Dude, if I told you, you would have denied me right there. Do you know how many times we have tried to ask for a break and you kept turning us down?"
I held my nose tightly between my fingers as my eyes screwed shut in annoyance. It wasn't my fault that when I made up my mind to do something, I made sure I did it. This new movie was supposed to be out before January but if I don't get a new director before August ends, it'll be out February and that is if I don't push them any faster.
"Fine, Fine." I exhaled then sat upright, "Do your vacation. I'll try to get us a director before August runs out."
Ash's expression softened and he sighed, "Hey Moon, don't kill yourself over this okay?"
"The movie must come out January, Ash. I won't deal if it doesn't."
"Relax. You are on a bloody cruise ship. If I were invited, you won't even be hearing from me."
I laughed as I reached for the head of the laptop, "That's because you are Ash Boxer, mate. Talk to you later." I rolled my eyes and scoffed, closing the laptop before he could say anything more.
Pushing up from the seat, I walked over to my tablet that was on the coffee table and went through the list of directors I had saved just in case of situations like this. Yes, it was good to be prepared. There were only five so I sent each a simple email request if they were free.
They would probably reply later in the day which led me to think of what I should do today. Breakfast had been unentertaining because Celia decided to pretend to be pissed about what happened yesterday thus, she didn't sit with me but with her sexy hunk of a husband, leaving me alone to think of my awful ex-boyfriends.
As I opened my gallery to go through my terrible yet sexy ex-boyfriends' pictures, I heard someone who was passing by my door say, "Let's go swimming. I heard the indoor pool is good."
"Really? Think we'll see that hot chick there." Someone else replied
"It is a hot day." He joked and they both laughed until their voices vanished.
"..." I pursed my lips as I stared at one of my blonde ex-boyfriends that was now currently dating another sexy California Surfer. His smile was presently mocking me, laughing at how lonely I was, of how I couldn't keep a boyfriend for at least three months while he flaunts with his that had been going on for a year.
Giving him one last glare, I made up my mind. I was going to leave this ship with a boyfriend and if I was lucky, maybe a husband.
And I already had a boy in mind.
...
The indoor pool room was large. They had a large adult pool and a small kiddy pool which was filled with kids. Thank God Celia decided to keep the kids with her.
After dropping my towel on my chair, I dived into the bloody cold water. The loud splash I made caught the attentions off a couple of people in and out of the pool. Exhaling as I wiped the water out of my face, I apologized to the ladies and they returned the gesture with flirty winks and smiles.
Rolling my eyes, I joined the men that were at the deeper part of the pool, by then I had already adjusted to the water temperature which was now warm against my skin.
"Hey." I greeted. The three men had met me during breakfast to congratulate me on the movie I had just released then proceeded to talk about football.
"Fred, my man." Curtis, the middle aged man with straight blonde hair and amazing emerald eyes waved me over. That man could be a talker.
"Well, see who decided to show up." Dean, the other blond that had a slightly feminine side to him which gave me the impression that he might be gay but didn't know it, said as he swam over to me to put an arm around my shoulder.
"I thought I just leave my room. It was boring me anyway." I said as I ran a wet hand through my face.
"Good because we plan to get babes to go to tonight's dinner with." Johnathan started, "Then maybe they'll stay over." He added and we laughed. Johnathan was the tall, dark and handsome one of the three. Slutty but yet could be very professional.
But of course, none could be compared to my awesomeness.
"Would love to join but I am gay."
Dean pulled away as he rose a brow at me. "Really?"
"What? You thought his coming out was a joke?" Johnathan said as he swayed in the water.
"You know about my coming out?" I asked as I swam to the wall so it could support me.
"Yeah. My last girlfriend told me. By the way, I am totally cool with it." he heaved his shoulder then swam to the shallow part.
"Really?" Curtis responded after a few minutes of silence, "If my wife was here, she'll steal you for herself. Her love for gay men led to her first failed marriage."
"S-Sorry?" I wasn't quite sure what to reply so I went with that.
"Please no. Her first son is even gay and I am quite sure she loves him more than me." He scoffed then shook his head. "Women."
"Are they here?" Dean asked as he came closer.
"No. She wanted to go to Hawaii and the kids followed her." He laughed. "And I am fucking happy about that. Kids could be annoying."
"Tell me about it." I whined as I rolled my eyes.
Dean turned to me, "You have kids?"
"Kids? No way. It's my sister's."
Curtis nodded, "I get that. My brother brings his kids in a lot especially since his wife died."
"Wow. Sorry." Dean gave him a sympathetic smile.
When I didn't say anything, we fell into a very uncomfortable silence. I quietly looked for Johnathan in the shallow part but he seemed to have gone because he wasn't there. My eyes suddenly fell towards the entrance door just to see Reece and his friend coming in.
Was it me or was his black trunk a little small?
Smirking, I started to leave but Curtis' voice interrupted my line of thought, "Hey, wanna go dive?"
"Uh...I d-"
"Yes!" Dean exclaimed, shutting me up surprisingly, "The person to get the smallest splash gets to be the slave."
"Slave?" I asked, confused.
"Yes. You buy our drinks or do what we want you to do. Understood?" Dean grinned at me and I had this very odd feeling he wanted me to lose.
Well, since I am not the man to lose, I agreed.
We got out of the pool and Curtis said as he stared at something far off at the corner of the room, "Hey look. Johnathan's got his hands full."
Dean and I quickly looked at the direction he was pointing at and to our surprise, he really was busy talking to a girl and his babe was really a babe.
"He's lucky he's that hot unless he wouldn't even be getting shots like that." Dean shook his head then positioned himself between Curtis and me.
"Yeah. Well, I need a woman myself since my wife thought it would be fun to be away from me." Curtis grumbled.
"We still have time man. No need to be glum." Dean pushed him lightly then turned to me, "Who are you taking?"
I smirked, then searched for them only to find them walking in my direction and boy, was Reece just distracting. His dark brown already ruffled hair that I couldn't wait to run my hand through, slim figure that would fit mine perfectly and god, those little pink nipples.
"Easy boy," Dean laughed, knocking into my shoulder with his therefore bringing me out of my perverted thoughts. "Any lower and the world would know just how interested you are in him."
"Guess I am just that interested." I said, still staring at him.
"The guy with short hair or the other skinny one." Curtis asked, leaning back a bit to view them.
I turned back to him, glaring, "Don't call him skinny. He is slim and perfect."
He scoffed, "Whatever man."
Rolling my eyes, I ignored him then turned back to Reece as he passed me. As if on reflex, I quickly caught his arm and he turned to me instantly. His clear blue eyes widened and I grinned.
"Hey Reece."
"Moon. Hi." He said, a little shocked as he turned slowly towards me.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" I asked as I let go of him.
"We've got break this afternoon so we thought we go swimming and they uh let us in because of our cards. They finally gave us." He said as he left a hand on his shoulder which made him look so cute.
"That's nice."
"Hey, you are the guy we met yesterday. Wait, you are Fred Moon!" Adam exclaimed and I rose a brow at him. Didn't we go through this yesterday?
"I didn't know you had this much fans Moon." Dean smirked then proceeded to shake Reece, "Hi, I am Dean."
"Reece and he is my friend, Adam." He said, pointing to the kid who was smiling like he'd won a lottery.
"Hey." He said, waving.
"I'm Curtis by the way."
"Hey." Adam grinned at him then turned to me, "I didn't know you had this much friends." He mocked then did something that I regretted.
He pushed me.
Adam pushed me jokingly yet so hard that I took a step back and slipped which made me to fall into the pool. And dear I say my splash wasn't exactly how I planned it.
Dean and Curtis jumped in not so long after and well, they both did a ton better than me.
"Seriously?" I yelled when I finally surfaced.
"Sorry?" Adam gave me a sympathetic smile but I just glared at him.
Dean splashed water on my face and when I turned my glare to him, he smirked. "Slave."
"Let's go again. I wasn't ready."
"Would have but I've just caught sight of some hotties. Therefore, I am out." Curtis wiggled his brow at us then climbed out of the pool.
The four of us watched him go then my glare went back to Adam. "You!"
"Cannon Ball!" The idiot shouted then dived into the pool.
"Whoohoo. Nice jump kiddo." Dean yelled then swam to him when he came up.
"Thanks." He exhaled. "Reece, you jump."
He quickly shook his head and said, "No. I'll just sit here." He ran a hand through his hair as he slowly sat at the edge of the pool.
"If you say so man." Adam said then started talking to Dean.
Grinning, I thanked God because I had been waiting to have Reece alone since he entered. Sighing under my breath, I swam over to him and climbed up so I was beside him.
"Hey again." He said.
I chuckled, "Why are you acting like we are strangers. We almost had sex once."
"Don't remind me." His tone changed almost immediately.
Smirking, I kept an arm around his shoulder and leaned in, "You could come to my room and we could finish-"
"No. Stop." He frowned as he shrugged my arm off.
"Really?" I gave him a confused look and he breathed out a frustrated sigh.
"Moon, it was nice knowing you but I guess we cannot be friends if you are going to keep making advances at m-" Before Reece could finish his third rejection -yes I was keeping count- I pushed him into the pool.
"You were rejecting me again. I told you it only turns me on."
Reece quickly rushed to the surface and started flailing around. It took me until he was no longer surfacing to realize he was drowning. "Reece!" I panicked as I quickly dived into the pool and saw him floating from the bottom of the pool.
Quickly, I reached for him and pulled him out to the surface. It was when I was heaving Reece's body over to the edge that Adam noticed it.
"Oh my god!" He yelled then quickly got out of the pool to help get Reece's body out. "Humph! What happened to him?" He asked as he slapped his friend's face not so gently but not so hard.
Climbing out of the pool, I quickly rushed to his side ignoring Adam and Dean's questions and focusing on getting Reece back awake. Thank god for having a super cool life guard ex-boyfriend unless I would have been as blank as Adam and Dean were.
After tilting his head up, I applied pressure to his chest quickly then blew air into his mouth. I repeated it again, pressure to his chest then air into his mouth. It was when Dean checked for pulse and said he was still alive that I quickened my paste. Damn it. If this wasn't a serious situation, I would obviously misuse this opportunity.
Reece eyes finally opened just when I was exhaling into his mouth, I pulled away quickly just in time for him to throw up the water he had swallowed then he inhaled, coughing harshly.
"Damn it Reece. Don't scare me like that." I shouted at him then pulled him into a tight hug.
His wet body latched onto mine, "I-I cann-not swim."
"Should have put a sign on your forehead or something." I mumbled into his skin as my fingers buried into his soft wet hair. He smelled amazing.
"Ha-Ha." He managed a chuckle as he gripped me tighter.
"Damn man. You scared us." Adam's voice brought us out of our moment and I just glared at him.
Reece let go of me and I helped him stand as he said, "Adam. I'm so tired. I'll need to go to the room-"
"Come to mine." I suggested and Reece started to shake his head but Dean interrupted.
"Yeah. Adam and I are going to play tennis. Right?"
"Yeah. See you during dinner Reece." Adam wiggled his brow at him then followed Dean away.
Grinning as I carried a very grumpy Reece-bridal style-to my room, he said, "I honestly don't know why we always end up together."
"Because we are meant to be together?"
"Yeah right. I don't like you."
"That is what you say." I shrugged as I opened the door to my room and closed it with my foot.
"I have to be up at 7, you know." He said and I hummed, taking him straight to my bed. "You don't have to put me on the bed. The couch is fine." He added with a little cute yawn.
"I want you on the bed." I replied then dropped him gently on the bed. Thankfully, he adjusted on the bed and I pulled a pillow under his head. "You okay?" I asked as I reached for the A/C remote and increased it a bit.
"Yeah. But I would need something not wet." He murmured and my eyes widened when I realized he was still in his trunks and was still wet.
"Sure, Sure. Yeah." I quickly dropped the remote then went to get a towel, a plain shirt and one of my unused boxers. I threw the towel at him as he sat up on the bed and he caught it and used it to clean his body.
When I got closer, I gave him the shirt and he wore it quickly then I said, "You'll need to get off that trunk."
Then Reece did something unexpected.
He came off the bed and pulled off his trunk right there in front me with his remarkable manhood mocking me. Damn was Reece hot.
"Moon, the boxers." He said sleepily.
"Uh...Sure, Sure." I tossed the boxers at him, not daring myself to move because I didn't know if I could hold myself because... I mean he was fucking naked.
However, he wore the boxers and climbed right into the bed, not even saying another word as he disappeared into the covers.
Was it me or was it just hot in here? I asked as I fanned myself away from him.
...
Reece.
His snore was like a harmonica.
It was soft, hardly loud and addicting. The little rise and fall of his chest had me captivated because he had no shirt on. His rippling tight muscles mocked mine but I tried not to think of that as I stared from where he lay on the couch.
Okay, I admit. I had fallen a bit for this narcissist. Maybe it was the way he carried himself, or the way he talked, ran his hand through his hair, smiled, frowned and best of all, looked at me. There was always this look on his face when he looked at me that I couldn't quite understand yet, but I will. We still had a lot of days to go.
Moon released a low and sexual moan that quickly reminded me of what we had done on that same couch. Swallowing, I quickly tore out of the room with my trunk.
Damn it Reece, what was wrong with you? One minute you want him, the next you wish he never existed.
Glaring at the floor board, I quickly ran to the elevator because there was another predator that lived on that floor. As I pressed the button, the elevator quickly opened and I entered, pressing my floor button before someone came out of their room.
Exhaling as I entered my room, Adam rushed to me with my uniform, "Dude, we're almost late."
"Urgh!" I growled as I threw the uniform on my bed then turned to Adam, "I'm tired."
He just rolled his eyes and said, "The fuck you tired of? You did go to Fred's room to sleep right?" Then his eyes widened suddenly and he opened his mouth to say something that I was sure would piss me off so I threw my trunk at him and he got the message.
"And remain like that." I said then started to take of the shirt Moon had given me, pausing a little to take a whiff of Moon's manly cologne. Damn, does this man make me crazy.
"Anytime now." Adam suggested as he paced the room.
"S-Sorry." I said then rushed out off the shirt but left the boxers on since it was actually quite comfortable before getting into the uniform.
Adam came to help me with the bow as I adjusted every other part quickly. When he was done, he took a step back and smiled. "You look great."
I nodded but all I was thinking of was if Moon was going to find me great for the dinner party. That thought however, led me to slapping myself continuously as I followed Adam out of the room.
