Chapter 37: In Which She Has A Mimosa

"How about we go to that resort that Jax was talking about, sounds fun" Isla proposed putting a spoonful of Nutella in her mouth as she sat criss cross on the kitchen counter while Alexander made pancakes.

"Sure doll, whatever you want" he replied offering her a smile as she grinned.

"Okay, I am already excited," she said as Alexander took away the jar of Nutella from her and replaced it with a plate of stacked pancakes.

"You're the best," she said and he gave her a cocky smirk before saying "I know I am"




The weather on the Island was weird and somewhat like the desert considering it was really cold at night and warm and humid during the day.

Hence, Isla decided on putting on an orange summer dress with spaghetti straps which were already there in the closet and had been calling out to her since she laid eyes on it.

She paired it up with some yellow and brown sandals before heading out of the room to where Alexander was waiting, dressed in a casual blue tee and washed jeans.

He looked so unusual and so normal out of his suit. His wardrobe was very unlike his style, it had a lot of flowery shirts and khaki shorts so he had a very limited choice in the matter.

"You look handsome" she complimented as he wrapped an arm around her shoulder leading her out the door.

"I am glad you think so because these are the only non clown clothes I could find," he said, chuckling.

"Well, I think you'd look dashing even in clown clothes" she placed a kiss on his cheek as they made their way towards the resort that was a walking distance away.

The resort was beautiful and very luxurious to
say the least and neither one of them had
realized that there were so many more people on the Island other than them who were staying at the resort.

"Welcome Miss Gambino, what can I do for you?
would you like to go to the massage rooms? or perhaps some relaxing acupuncture treatment or
if you prefer, water Zumba?" Jax had appeared out of nowhere and was going on and on about the Island activities, not giving them a chance to talk at all.

"Jax, Jax ! it's fine, don't worry about me I am just here to look around and have a good time. None of that acupuncture or Zumba stuff " Isla said cutting him off and thankfully, he got the hint.

"Alright then, how about I show you to this little
party we are throwing for the resort guests. You can have drinks and enjoy yourself these " Jax proposed and Isla smiled at him.

"Sounds nice" she said and they followed Jax's lead.

"So chatty" Alexander grumbled under his breath but Isla heard, making her giggle.

Jax leads them to the back of the resort which had a door leading right out to the forest where apparently the party was being held and the music was so loud that Isla could feel the bass thrumming in her heart.

"Alright, I'll take my leave now, be out of your hair, if you need me, I'll be at the reception” Jax said, taking his Leave.

"Finally" Alexander grumbled out again and Isla jabbed him playfully.

"He is just being nice, don't be So rude"she said, her eyes shining with mirth.

There were people in flowery button downs and Straw hats everywhere and it seemed that coconuts were everywhere. It was like a typical Hawaii vacation, except, not in Hawaii but on some remote Island that Isla didn't know her family owned.

Alexander's arm snaked around her waist and knuckles white as they walked into the crowd, making Isla look up at him.

"What's wrong?" she asked when she saw the tight jaw and murderous expression on his face.

"Those perverts won't stop staring, would it be so bad if I beat them up" Isla looked in the direction Alexander was glaring at to find a group of shirtless men shamelessly checking her out.

"Ignore them Alex and no beating up anyone, we're here for a good time" Isla said wrapping both her arms around his torso and snuggling to his side, making his tense muscles relax just a little.

"You're right. wait here I'll get us some drinks, the bar is way too crowded, don't wanna lose you in there" he said and she nodded Letting him go.

Only moments later when Alexander wait for the bar, three girls approached Isla who was nervously standing there waiting for him to get back.

"Hey there" one of the girls with auburn hair said, all three of them were gorgeous.

"Umm... Hi," Isla replied confused as to why they approached her.

"So I am just gonna get to the point, Your friend is very hot, this has our room number and contact, be a deal and pass it over to him when he gets back, we like to share" she said, her red painted lip pulling in a smug smirk, mirroring her two other friends as she handed out Isla what seemed like a napkin with their information.

Isla was shook, to say the least.

"I am sorry but he is my boyfriend" Isla told them, feeling pretty cross.

"oh... you know what... you're pretty gorgeous yourself girl, and as we said, we don't mind sharing, you can join injust give it a thought" the girl Said sharing the napkin in Isla's hand forcefully and strutting away before Isla had a chance to say anything else.

Shortly after that Alexander was back with their drinks, a glass of rum in one hand and a mimosa in the other.

"What happened?" he asked seeing the perplexed expression on her face.

"Same thing really weird that I am not quite sure I fully understand" she said looking at him weirdly and then down at the handkerchief in her hand which Alexander just noticed.

"what's that?" he asked gesturing towards the white handkerchief.

"A contact number I suppose" she told him and his temper shot up.

"It was those douche bags, right? I am gonna give them a piece of my mind" he sneered and was ready to make his way towards the group of men when Isla made him halt in his steps.

"It wasn't then Alex, this is actually for you" she said and Alexander looked at her confused.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"Well, a bunch of girls came up to me and asked me to give you their contact information and room number that is apparently written on this, I told then that you weren't available and that you're my boyfriend but instead of going away, they said they were open to the idea of sharing and that I should join too. Why did they ask me to join and share what?" she questioned looking up at him, brows furrowed.

A look of shock portrayed Alexander's as he let out a long sigh thinking of how to explain it to her, she was too innocent.

"Well, doll, I think they were inviting us both to have sex with them" he didn't know how else to put it.

Isla gaped at him.

"But w... what... I" she was at a loss of words.

"Have a mimosa" he said extending the glass towards her and she took it absentminded by, still processing the information.

Then a frown settled on her lips and she looked back up at him.

"You're mine" she outright said almost malling Alexander choke on his rum before he looked at her and let out a rare full blown laugh.

"I am serious" she said and he brought her close, kissing the crown of her head.

T of course, I am yours" he reassured and she leaned into him with a smug smile.

"I think you should drink this too, I don't really like alcohol" she said extending her mimosa to him.

Allow that already but I don't think you have ever had a mimosa before, trust me you'll like it" he told her and she hesitantly took a sip, and then another or her eyes lit up.

"This is so great, this doesn't taste like alcohol at all, it's so fruity" she said while taking big gulps making Alexander stop her.

"Easy there, it's sweet but it's still alcohol" he chucked seeing how much she loved it.
