immediately tucks me under his arm as I lay my head on his chest.

“Are you ok?” he asks quietly.

“Yeah, today has been awesome. I just wish we didn’t have to be separated” I say just as quietly as we pull into the driveway.

“I know Sweetheart I feel it too” he agrees and throws the door open and we go inside.

We waste no time getting ready for bed and Trick climbs in with me, I miss the others but it’s really nice to spend some time with just Trick too. The day catches up with me and I’m gone within seconds of snuggling up to him.

The next morning is a whirlwind of awesome breakfast and presents; Rob and Jenny got me this beautiful photo album that had pictures of my mum and me and the boys when we were kids. She even put in a couple that she’d taken since I came back, including the ones from before Winter Formal. There were thankfully none of my father, I don’t know if Trick had warned her about putting photos of him in there or maybe even Kat, since she knew something was going on with him before we even left but for whatever reason I’m grateful.

The gift was perfect.

I was nervous to give them the spa day and golf clubs that I bought but they both seemed really pleased. Jenny especially when I mentioned that I got Kat the same thing so they could go together.

Trick got the latest games console and a few games which he was really excited about but went straight over my head, he also got two tickets to an art show in the city. When he opened those his whole body tensed and Jenny just looked at him sadly. I desperately want to know what it was about but I won’t ask. I’m now extremely worried about the present I got him.

Maybe I can get him something else when we stop for food, near the cabin. It won’t be great though. I could order something online too and tell him it hasn’t come yet? I’ll figure it out.

The mood change didn’t last long and after presents me and Trick had a group chat with guys. The whole day was really nice but most of my excitement is for tomorrow and finally going on the trip to the cabin. We end up watching christmas movies in the afternoon and just enjoying being together.

“Are you guys all packed for tomorrow then?” Jenny asks, eyes on the screen.

“Shit, why didn’t that occur to me? I haven’t packed anything” I groan. “Can I borrow a suitcase please? I have one for clothes but I forgot to get one for the guy’s presents” I ask jenny.

“Of course, hang on I’ll go grab it for you” she says starting to get up.

“Thank you” I grin.

“Don’t worry mom, I’ll grab it” Trick says, taking his arm from around me and standing up.

“Thanks, you better start packing. I know the guys want to start off early tomorrow” Jenny grins at me.

I hop up off of the couch and rush upstairs, although my scrapes are still looking pretty bad, especially on my face, the pain is so much better now. I pull the suitcase out from the closet and just stare at it for a minute unsure where to begin. Not only have I never had to pack for a vacation, but I also have never had the choice of so many clothes to take.

Right, ok.

Standing here isn’t going to magically pack fuck all. Underwear first, then tops, pants, jumpers, sweats and pjs. Then my snow stuff. I fold everything neatly and pack it carefully in the case, on a whim I add the red dress and then remember that Trick told me to bring my kimono, so I chuck that in too. I actually decided to save my underwear for last since there’s so much of it to choose from. I clear the suitcase and my snow stuff off of the bed and then pull the underwear boxes closer to me.

No, I haven’t sorted it all out yet, it’s been a crazy week. Don’t judge me.

I start rummaging through the boxes and pull out matching sets. I’m not planning on anyone seeing me in them, although the image of me watching in the mirror as Trick fucked me flashes across my mind and instantly makes my underwear damp. I shake the image away reluctantly.

I lay out enough sets for the week and extra’s because you
