I placed my hand on the side of her face and stared into her eyes. “We need some time alone, baby—just you and me and a few horses. They’re going to be with Ellie and Gunner. My parents are here, and your parents are a phone call away. Everything is gonna be okay. We’re leaving in the morning. You packed?”
She nodded her head.
I wiped away the tear rolling down her cheek. “I love you.”
She leaned in and gently kissed me on the cheek. “I love you, too.”
I sat in the seat next to Ari and saw that she was texting Ellie—again.
“Ari, leave her alone. You gave her a long list of things this morning, and you’ve called her three times already. Stop. The kids are going to be okay.”
She nodded her head. “I know, I know. I can’t help it though. I’ve never been away for so long. What if Grace thinks Ellie is a better mom? What if she never wants to come back home?”
I looked at her and then rolled my eyes. “Did you really just say that?”
She nodded her head. “I’m just tense, ya know? I’ve never been on a business trip with you before, and left the kids like this before. But it’s been too long since I’ve had a mind-blowing orgasm. I’m so overdue.”
The lady next to me cleared her throat, and I turned and smiled.
I looked back at Ari and leaned in closer. “Baby, I don’t think the whole plane needs to hear that you’re lacking in the orgasm area. Neither does my ego.”
Ari turned and stared at me, and then she smiled slightly. “You have some serious making up to do.”
“Is that so?”
She nodded her head and ran her tongue along the bottom of her lip. My dick jumped in my pants. If I thought I could, I would take her to the back of the plane and give her what she needed.
When the flight attendant walked by, the lady sitting next to me asked, “Are there any open seats on this flight?”
“Yes, there are some in the back. Would you like to move, ma’am?”
I looked at the lady.
She looked at me and then over toward Ari. “Yes, please.”
She got up and followed the flight attendant. I instantly formed a plan in my head, and I smiled as I nodded.
Seeing the attendant walking by I held up my hand to get her attention. “Excuse me. When we get up in the air, is it possible to get a blanket?”
She smiled at me.. “I’ll get you one now.”
I turned back and saw Ari attempting to sneak in another text. I reached over and grabbed her phone.
“Hey! Jeff, give it back.”
The flight attendant came back and handed me the blanket.
“Thank you.”
“Of course. Let me know if there is anything else you need.”
I grinned as I began putting the blanket over Ari while the plane backed up.
“What are you doing? I’m not cold.”
“Trust me,” I said as I winked at her.
Our flight was pretty empty, and no one was sitting in the seats across the aisle from us. Two people were in front of us, and from what I could tell, only two people were behind us.
