BEGONE SATAN

"Hey baby, how's your vacation with grandma?" I smiled just seeing her chubby cheeks through my phone, she's the cutest.

"Me encanta aquí mamá." My eyes widened at how good my baby's Spanish is getting.

"Wow, that's so good." This is the cutest thing ever, I can feel my eyes tearing up.

"Grandma taught me." She smiled proudly.

"I thought I heard the cutest voice in the universe." Cole's voice came behind me, he just came out of the bathroom.

"Daddy," Kitty yelled excitedly into the phone, I scooted giving him space to sit also shifting the phone a little bit so he could also see.

Cole and I haven't talked since last night, it's kind of weird since we hardly have fights and when we do, we settle it immediately.

"O my God, I leave you for five minutes and you've grown so big." Kitty chuckles at her dad's compliment.

I remember when I got pregnant, Cole almost had a panic attack he was scared that he wasn't going to be a good father but look at him now, he is a natural.

"Grandma and I are going on a road trip today, she said she is going to show me where mom and dad went to school, that's where you met." I can't remember the last time I have seen that place, it's been years.

"You know kitty, your mum and I didn't meet under school premises..." I looked up at Cole as he said those words, surprised that he still remembers.

"We met at a coffee shop just a few blocks away from school."

"Really?" My baby girl all hyped up to hear more, I just sat there smiling hard.

"Yes, baby and daddy's clumsy self slipped and spilled coffee on your mum's shirt." He didn't slip, he was pushed by Wilder and his crew and it wasn't just any shirt, it was my favorite shirt because my favorite novelist signed on that shirt.

"I couldn't be more grateful that I bumped into your mum." Our eyes locked as he said those words, I bit down on my lips before awkwardly turning back to the screen.

"So baby, look out for the coffee shop and take pics." Kitty nodded excitedly.

"I will, lots of pics." She smiled removing her long hair from her face with her little hands, she is just the cutest thing ever.

"Bye mum, dad." She waves at the screen, I let out a little laugh.

"Love you."

"We love you too," I replied, with that my baby ends the video chat.

The room fell silent after the call, I don't know if I should say something and apologize for last night.

I don't feel like apologizing, it's how I felt and I voiced out but I hate fighting with him, I turned to my husband who's inches away from me.

"I.." We both began to talk at the same time causing me to stop.

"No, you first." Me first? I don't even know what I wanted to say in the first place.

"I guess..." I paused before starting again.

"I am sorry for last night, I overreacted." Even if I don't feel like I did, I am just going to be the bigger person.

"No, I am sorry. I should have helped you up from the pool." I raised my eyebrows at his apology.

Does he really think it's all about the pool situation?

It's more than that, I felt the urge to open his eyes to the real problem but I ignored it, I just don't want to fight anymore.

"I hate when we fight." He held my hand, I looked down at it and smiled.

"Me too," I whispered as I placed my lips on his.

"Husband missing again." I don't even need to look up from my reading position, I already know it's Wilder who's definitely in swimming shorts, showing off his glorious upper body in the not so hot sun of Cuba.

"I feel like you have nothing better to do than to disturb me." I am no longer concentrating on my novel but it is still covering my face, shielding my eyes from this sinful creature.

"And I feel like you enjoy it." I could hear him seating down.

What can't he leave me alone?

"Don't flatter yourself." That's my not so smart comeback.

"Don't you have better things to do like go into town, watch a movie, get a massage or whatever, other than shamelessly flirting me." I couldn't pretend to be reading anymore so I dropped my novel down on my laps, still looking ahead refusing to look at Wilder. I put down my shades before finally turning to Wilder.

I was right.

"Flirting? Babe, you know I don't have to flirt." I rolled my eyes.

"There are two girls at the end of the pool and they are definitely eye ogling you, maybe you could give them your attention." I looked ahead at the girls who are probably twins giving me dirty looks.

Kids.

"The twins? They had it last night," Wilder winked.

I am going to puke.

"Disgusting." I looked away.

"I would have invited you but you bolted yesterday night." He smirked.

"I really doubt you are on this vacation to be a part-time marriage counselor and a pain in my ass."

"I really doubt you are on this vacation to be all alone, reading a lame-ass novel." He really as a comeback to everything.

"Leave or I will." I simply said.

"Well, I won't mind having to see that ass from a distance while you walk away." He smirked.

I bit down on my lips trying to hide the blush erupting, my own body can not betray me, not in front of Wilder.

"Your so uptight, you need to chill." Chilling is me not going all Gaga on him while he took my juice earlier.

"And I got the perfect solution." I finally took off my shades, having a better look at him.

"I don't want to hear it," I muttered putting my shades on again.

"I was going to suggest..." I interrupted him.

"Like I said don't want to hear it." I am proud of myself at the moment, I resist temptation pretty well.

Begone, Satan.

I tuned to surprisingly see Cole walking towards our direction.

Right about time.

I smirked knowing fully well how to get Wilder to leave. I stood up dropping my novel and shades on my seat then walked up to my husband, before Cole could say anything, I smashed my lips on his.

My left arm around his neck, I led his hands to my butt while I attacked his soft lips.

I smiled withdrawing from his lips as soon as breathing became a necessity, I winked at Cole who is a blushing mess.

I turned around for the big finale but the seat beside was empty, he probably got the memo and left.

Bullseye.
