*** The picture is of San Bartolo, Lima, Peru. Macarena's real hometown. The song picked for this chapter is Gianmarco's "Hoy" a song he wrote while he was living away from Peru and feeling homesick, kind of how I feel after writing this chapter. Enjoy!!! ***

Lima, February 2014

Macarena's POV

I'm driving along the highway that will take us to my parents' beach house, Jamie is sitting next to me and Jim and Samina are riding in the back of the rental car. This is a beautiful ride once you leave behind the chaos and traffic that represents Lima, you ride along the ocean and the view is just breathtaking. The weather in Lima, this time of the year, is just perfect. It's summertime and since Lima is next to a desert, we don't have rain. So this will be the perfect holiday full of sunny days and blue skies.
I admire my ring while my hand is sitting on the wheel, Jamie's hand is resting on my leg and he squeezes my leg gently.

"A penny for your thoughts?"

"I'm just very happy you guys are here"

"This is beautiful Maca!"

Samina's voice was cheerful. It made me smile.

"And this is just the beginning of our trip"

"Are you nervous Jamie boy?"

Jim tapped on Jamie's shoulder.

"For what, dad?"

"Meeting Macarena's parents"

Jamie chuckled.

"I already know them, dad. I met them in Brazil."

"But you and Maca were just friends, besides, now you guys are engaged, it's different. You're taking her dad's baby girl"

Jim chuckled. Like father like son. They share the same sense of humor. Jim's voice was full of laughter.

"Jeez dad! Thanks for encouraging me! But seriously, I'm not concerned about Maca's dad, her mom is the tough one"

"I can't believe you haven't charmed her with your looks!"

"I haven't tried"

Jamie looked at me and wiggled his eyebrows.

"Eeww, I doubt my mom would fall for that one, but you did get your way into her heart after sending the kids Christmas presents"

"My boys! I wish they were here"

"Whose kids?"

Jim's voice was curious this time.

"Macarena's nephews, lovely boys!"

"You're going to be an excellent father, Jamie!"

Samina sounded proud. I was proud myself so I responded.

"That he will be! We're here"

I took the exit which lead us to Asia, the most sophisticated beach town in Lima, it had many designer stores, car dealers, a complete open air mall and many bars, restaurants and discotheques. Jamie, Jim and Samina were looking out the windows, big eyed and surprised to see such a beautiful view. I like this town, it has everything in one place, but it's not where I grew up, we got this beach house as an investment, it is family property, I like it but I haven't spent enough time here to call it a home. Home to me was the beach house my parents used to own in San Bartolo, a beautiful, little beach town closer downtown Lima, there's where my siblings and I grew up, where Santiago taught me how to surf and where Antonia taught me how to ride a bike, I can't help but think of my big, protective siblings every time I'm in Lima. As soon as I parked the car outside my parents' new posh home the door flew open and my mom rushed to give me a hug. I was just climbing off the car so she caught me kind of off guard.

"Hija!" (Daughter)

"Hola Mami" (Hi mom)

My dad followed after but being the gentleman that he is, he greeted Jamie first giving him a strong pat on the shoulder.

"We meet again, Jamie"

"Hello Mr. Santana. How do you do"

"I'm fine, thanks. But it's Eduardo."

"Right sir, I mean.... Eduardo. These are my parents Dr. Jim Dornan and Dr. Samina Dornan"

Jim chuckled at his son's formality and extended a hand to my dad.

"It's Jim! Nice to meet you, Eduardo. You got a beautiful home here"

"Thank you. It's our family's piece of heaven. Samina, can I call you that? This is my wife Emilia"

Samina smiled and nodded, she shared a handshake with my dad and gave my mom a hug and kiss. My mom went to hug Jamie.

"How can you get more and more handsome every time I see you?"

Jamie blushed, he looked adorable, he kissed my mom's hand.

"You're too kind, Emilia"

I went to my dad's open arms. I always felt safe in my dad's arms, my hero.

"Hola mi chulus" (hello my chulus)

"Hola Papi! (Hello daddy) Wow! You haven't called me chulus in the longest time!"

I smiled at the remembrance of my childhood's nickname. My grandpa used to call that my brother and my dad took the nickname for me.

"Come into the house! How was the trip? Did you get a lot of traffic on your way here, Maqui?"

My mom asked me. She was excited. I knew because of her ranting. The house inside was just beautiful. My dad has wonderful taste and all the decorations he picked himself. My mom was very proud and she gave a tour to Samina and Jim. Jamie followed me to my room, I heard him gasped, when I turned to see the reason of his surprise I saw the huge picture of me in my quinceañera (equivalent to sweet sixteen) dress. How embarrassing!!!!

"Oh Lord! Mami!!!!!! I'm gonna kill you!!!!!!"

Jamie's POV

I'm staring at this huge picture of my beautiful Macarena and I can't help myself but feel starstruck, what a pretty sight she was when she was in her teens, it's not that she's not beautiful now, but this picture shows an innocent Macarena, tanned skin and natural highlights on her long hair due to all the surfing she used to practice in her teens. She's wearing a red princess like dress, I guess this picture was taken on her sweet sixteen party. What a beautiful creature she is, so flawless, so free.

"Oh Lord! Mami!!!!!! I'm gonna kill you!!!!!!"

I was interrupted by her annoyed scream. It made me chuckle.

"You look beautiful, love"

"No I don't! I look hideous!!!!"

Oh no she didn't! I approached her and pinned her against the wall. Pressed my body against hers, she gasped. I made a Christian move, the one she likes the most, the elevator move and kissed her as if there is no tomorrow. We've spent the night making sweet love but still I can't get enough of her. I don't think I will ever get tired of her. Maca has ruined it for me, no woman in this world will be good enough for me, it's only her, it's Macarena Santana the love of my life and I'm happy that she accepted to be my fiancée.
While I kiss her passionately I remember the night we've spent last night in a luxurious hotel in Lima, we needed to wait my dad and Samina's arrival, it didn't make sense to drive two hours here and then go back to pick up my parents. I am proud to say that I made the night memorable and Macarena Santana will only remember me every time she comes to Lima.
We broke the kiss to catch our breaths.
Macarena was flushed.

"Wow! That was....."

"Hot? Yeah, it was. I'm glad to know I still have it"

I shot her a grin and she slapped my arm playfully.

"You can't do that Dornan! Don't leave me all hot and bothered with our parents in the same house! Now if you excuse me, I need a cold shower"

"Can I join you?"

She glared at me, I knew I was pushing her buttons but I've been damn if it wasn't my favorite thing in the world to do, to leave her all hot and wanton for me.

"Ok! I got it! I'll go and check on our parents"

"Thank you! And Jamie.."

"Yes?"

"I love you!"

"I love you more! And I'm taking that picture with me"

"Over my dead body!!!"

I ran out of the room just before she threw a towel my way. I only have two weeks before I need to be in London for a quick meeting with the producers of The Fall and I want to make sure I spend every second of the day with Maca. I found my parents sitting on the kitchen stool bar sipping some cocktails Emilia had made, the famous and delicious Pisco Sour.

"Macarena is taking a shower"

"Would you like some Pisco Sour, Jamie, dear?"

"I would love some, but I'll wait for Maca"

" Maqui is a lucky girl"

Emilia winked at me, I guess I had won her heart for real. Eduardo cut in.

"If I were you, I would go and change into swim trunks because I bet she wants to take you to the beach"

"I know, she needs the ocean, when I took her to Ireland, it was winter so we didn't go to the beach"

My dad whispered something to Samina and made her giggle. Oh God! I better go, my parents are getting tipsy. Then, just like that an angel appeared in the kitchen, my beautiful fiancée was wearing a white summer dress that ended in the middle of her thighs her hair was up in a messy bun and her sunglasses hid her beautiful blue eyes, those eyes that disarm me every time they look at mine.

"Mami, are you making those wonderful Pisco Sour already??"

"Si mi amor" (Yes, my love)

"Jamie, stop staring at me and go change, we're getting lunch and buying a surf board for you"

She made me snap out of my daydream. I was picturing making love to her on the beach.... Hummmmmm

"Hum, ok! Give me five"

Thirty minutes later we were standing in front of a surf board shop, Wayo Whilar read the sign on the front. Maca was super excited, I could feel it.

"Ready, amor?"

"Do I have a choice?"

She pulled me to a kiss and then hugged me.

"No, you don't. Come on!"

We entered the shop, there were many boards all around and the girl on the counter smiled at us but gasped when Maca took her sunglasses off.

"Ay Dios! (Oh God) Macarena Santana?"

"Humm, si! hola! (Yes, hi)"

Maca blushed, I guess she's rather famous here because the girl asked her to take a picture with her. I offered to take the picture, it was fun not to be the famous one. In Canada, people would recognize me because of the TV series I filmed there 'Once Upon A Time', but most were oblivious to Maca. Once the picture was taken and the girl was done making Maca sign many pieces of paper, a man came out of the back door, he was middle size and very tan, his hair was yellowish at the ends because of the sun and salt, this was a real surfer.

"Macarena! Como estás, linda?" (How are you, pretty?)

She smiled warmly to him and gave him a hug, Maca was taller than him. She looked at me and talked to him.

"Wayo, this is Jamie Dornan, my fiancé, do you mind sticking to English?"

He looked at me and gave me a wide smile.

"Not at all, how are you, man? Nice to meet you! Welcome to my shop!"

"Nice meeting you too. Nice shop you have here"

"Thanks, bro! When did you arrive Maca? How are Anto and Santi? I see your parents often but haven't seen your siblings in years!"

"They're fine, Anto lives in Brazil and Santi, well he lives in Australia but he's in Canada right now"

"Cool! So what can I do for you?"

"We're looking for a board for Jamie"

"Can you surf?"

He looked at me and I chuckled. I couldn't help myself. Surfing was something I used to do in my teen years, nothing serious, but being from Holywood, Northern Ireland, my house was very close to Co. Antrim, one of the best points to surf in Ireland. I'm not trying to sound cocky but I'm pretty good with a surf board, although, for now, I want to keep that a secret, I'll let Maca "teach" me how to surf.

"It's been a long time since I last tried to surf, I'm more into football or rugby"

"Well, you're in good hands here. Maca is a wonderful surfer, I was one of her coaches"

Maca laughed.

"By coaching you mean trying to drown me????"

"Hey! I was trying to make you tough! You needed to learn the hard way"

"Jeez, thanks!!!! Ok love, let's find a board for you"

I smiled, I've already picked one, there was one that caught my eye when we entered the shop, the silhouette of the board reminded me of my own board.

"I like the color of this one"

Maca stifled a laugh.

"I think you should get yourself a beginner board, I don't want you hurting yourself"

"I can handle a couple of falls"

She sighed and pecked my lips.

"This one it is, Wayo!"

"Ok, are you taking it with you, or should I deliver it to your house?"

"Send it to my house, please. We're going to get some lunch"

"Ok, give me another hug, you grew up so fast Maca, it feels as if it was yesterday when we were at your quinceañera party, you should have seen her, Jamie. She looked as a princess, a surfer princess"

Maca made a disgusting sound, I answered amused by this woman.

"I've seen the picture, she looked beautiful indeed"

"You look as a good man, congratulations, you are taking the best girl in town"

"Thank you, bro. It's the Luck of the Irish"

Macarena's POV

Lunch was delicious, Jamie and I are sprawled on my mom's white coach waiting for the food to settle down so we can go surf a little. My parents took Jim and Samina for a walk on the boardwalk.

"I can get used to this on my everyday routine"

"Me too"

I was combing my fingers through his copper locks, he looked so damn hot, his face was surrendered by a copper stubble, Jamie hates shaving and his role in Cape Town needs him to wear a mustache. He is such a handsome man that he couldn't look ugly for any reason.

"Hey Maca?"

"Yeah?"

"Where would you like to live after we get married? Do you have any dream place you would like to live in?"

"Hummm, I like New York, but I loved London when I went there for a photo shoot, I was in a lovely neighborhood in West London, I just fell in love with it"

Jamie hugged me tightly.

"God! You're perfect! I live in West London, I think my house can accommodate us and Dulcie"

I smiled at the idea of having Dulcie over, I can't wait to meet her.

Jamie's phone rang, I moved so he could grab it from his pocket.

"It's Santi"

He told me and answered the phone and put in on speaker. He greeted Santi in Spanish and his accent just made him cuter.

"Hola Santiago, mi hermano"

"Jamie! It's Millie!!! She's in labor!!!"

Jamie jumped.

"WHAT?????!!!!!!!!"
