THE EMERALD ISLE
The flight to Belfast lasted 6h35m Jamie and I were very tired from our fun night with Jenny and Marc, we sang until 5am when we left a snoring Marc on the couch and Jenny hailed the cab for us whistling like a man, that made Jamie and I laugh all the way to my apartment.
During the takeoff and landing I held my baby in my arms and stroke his hair to calm him down. I am becoming awfully dependent of his touch, his company, his love. The pilot's voice informing the local time and temperature brought me back from my thoughts. I turned to check on Jamie who was smiling like a little boy in Disney. Now it was my turn to cup his face just like he did with me back in São Paulo.
"God! You look so happy! I want to jump your bones! You look too handsome!"
"Wow! Miss Santana! What a sweet love declaration I am stunned!!"
"Oh baby I can be sweet but now I have the hots for you"
"The hots!!! Why Miss Santana! Your fluttery only gets better and better"
I slap his leg and stand up so we can grab our belongings and leave the plane but he reached for me and sat me on his lap and kissed me passionately. I responded the kiss but before we deepened it to a point of no turning back we broke apart trying to catch our breath. We looked at each other smiling and with love in our eyes, not caring about the people walking by us leaving the plane.
"What was that for?
"Well Miss Santana, to show you that I also have the hots for you"
He winked at me and disarmed me.
"Come Dornan! I have a schedule to follow and you are distracting me"
"A schedule??? Oh baby, I am the one supposed to surprise you not the other way around"
"You'll get your chances, come on stud!"
"I love it when you get all bossy"
We arrived at the Budget stand to get the car Dani had rented for us, I didn't even bother to ask her what has she rented so I was surprised to see her choice, a black Mercedes A250, not my style but a beautiful car.
"I'll drive"
Jamie declared.
"Of course you will!!! I don't know how to drive the wrong way!"
I winked at him but for some reason the guy at the rental looked insulted.
"My love, you sound American. We are the ones driving on the right side of the road, I'll teach you how to drive correctly"
I giggled because I didn't think it was such an insult but dropped it because I didn't want to start a fight at the very beginning of our trip.
Once in the car he flashed me a beautiful smile and kissed my knuckles.
"Thank you for this. I hope you enjoy every second of it. You made me feel very special in Brazil and I want you to enjoy just the same"
"I am sure I will, I can't wait to meet your family and see you interact with them"
"My dad is going to love you"
I smiled and wished I was wearing a dress, I shouldn't be in jeans when meeting his family for the first time. I guess I was too hang over when I got ready for the trip.
I spied on Jamie and he was driving with such an ease, he really was in his habitat. I wondered if I would look like that driving around Lima.
"A penny for your thoughts?"
"I am getting a little anxious"
"I can see that and I don't understand why. You are wonderful my dad and sisters will love you. They are fine people ya know?"
His accent getting stronger by the second.
"I am sure they are. But You are the baby of the family, just like me, so I will understand if they hate me"
"Of course they will! I mean what there's to love? You're hideous! You have this smile that makes me weak in the legs, you have this body that takes my breath away, you have a heart so big that makes everyone fall in love with you as soon as they know you, and your kind soul, that's the best part of all. You are the complete package Macarena Santana"
I flashed while my heart skipped a beat. This man is really something! He's right, I mustn't worry, once his family see how much I love him, I'm sure they'll accept me.
The 30 min. drive to Holywood, Belfast was stunning, no wonder why Ireland is called 'The Emerald Isle'. This is definitely the best place to grow a family and kids.
"Jamie, this is beautiful!"
"I know. right? My favorite place in the world, now that you're here it's just become perfect"
I reached over and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you for bringing me here"
"You're mostly welcome, but you're the one who planned this. I'm the one who must be saying thank you, we are here"
I looked out the window and saw a beautiful two-story house with a lovely garden in the front and beautiful windows surrounding the house. I can imagine a young Jamie getting out of the door and riding his bicycle to school. I suddenly wished I met him then so I could help him through his pain caused by his mother's departure followed by his friends' lost in a car accident. Jamie was walking around the car to open my door when the door of the house opened and a handsome man with gray hair came out the door, Jamie turned around and ran towards him and embraced him in a tight manly hug. I opened the door and got out of the car.
"Dad this is my girlfriend, Macarena Santana"
He opened his arms and gestured for me to go to him. I did and the hug was so tight it left me breathless and I could feel love, the love this man was offering me and the love I was feeling for him, after all this is the man who made out of Jamie a respectful man.
"What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl"
"Thank you very much, Mr. Dornan"
"It's Jim, please"
I smiled and nodded.
"Jim"
"She's very pretty son! You're a lucky lad"
"I know! Where are the girls?"
"They went to the corner shop to buy some groceries. Open up the boot! Let me help you with your bags"
Wow! What? Jamie was wearing sneakers, what boot? Then I saw them going towards the trunk of the car. Maybe that's how they call a trunk in Ireland. I'm going to need to use Google Translate in this trip, I don't think my English is this good. Irish language can be funny and fascinating as its men.
*** Top of the Mornin' for most of you!!!! Writing about Ireland can be challenging with all their idioms and fun words. I am probably going to write two more chapters in Ireland so be patient with me if it takes me longer because of all the researching. Don't forget to comment any thoughts you may have and also vote, vote and vote!! Thank you tons!!!!! Xoxo-Z ***
