The fill-in wife - Episode 13

 

HEY GUYS. SO SORRY FOR THE REALLY LATE UPLOAD. DIDNT HAVE DATA TO POST NEW UPDATES.

Maya:

"You both seem to be enjoying your honeymoon huh?" Beatrice wiggle her brow at me and I shrug. We have been walking for a while with no beach in sight. I'm actually praying the beach has relocated. With the bright red barely there bikini Beatrice had me wear underneath a pretty sun dress, I don't think I'm looking forward to this beach adventure.
"Hey! Maya! Are you even listening to me at all?" Bea snap her fingers in my face and my attention goes back to my annoying friend.
"I was asking if last night was fun with your husband." She says teasingly.
"He came home drunk and then threw several drunken tantrums till the break of dawn . I'll say it was awesome."
"He came home drunk? That's weird. I was sure he couldn't wait to get you alone all through the court procedures yesterday."
"I'm as confused as you are, Bea. He's acting strange. Like he's---- I don't know, scared of something happening or something." I sigh deeply.
"Look, maybe he just doesn't what you to feel forced or pressures. Because babe, that look you both had back there before my interruption are of two people who want to do each other." She wiggle her waist and grin.
"Ewwww Bea

. Don't say it like that." I say, blushing hard.
"You see?!"
"See what?"
"That's probably why Derrick doesn't want to make a move. You act so innocent and like you don't want sex Maya" she states like it's the most obvious thing.
"I don't act like I'm scared of s*x." I defend.
"Shut up Maya. You do."
"Don't tell me to shut up." I slap her shoulder.
"You don't want my advice then. I should just go back to my room and order as many food as I can. Enjoy your honeymoon babe." She starts walking back towards the hotel. I pout but then I see Bea freeze. I follow her eyes and see Derrick's friend, Xavier waving enthusiastically at her and I chuckle.
"Good luck going back to the hotel Bea." I whisper for only her to hear. She turns to face me. Oh if looks could kill. I just shrug innocently.
"Hey Xavier! Bea was just talking me about how nice you are!" I yell to Xavier who is already walking up to us.
"What are you doing? I'm gonna kill you!" Bea grinds out.
"Ladies! You looked damn beautiful yesterday Maya." Xavier peck both my cheeks while I give Bea a hidden smile.
"Thanks Xavier. We were just heading to the beach. Mind joining us?" I ask him. I see him peruse Bea who's staring daggers into my head while I ignore her.
"I won't mind spending my day at the beach with two beautiful women. Especially when one of said beautiful women was just fantasizing about me." He says the last part with his eyes shining mischievously.
"In your dreams." Bea spits and start storming off towards the hotel.
"I don't mind dreaming about you Beatrice!" He yells as he follows after her. I watch him grab a hold of Beatrice's hand. They struggle a bit before Beatrice relent. Knowing Beatrice, she wouldn't have relented. She likes this guy!
"Hey come on Maya! The beach is this way!" Xavier yell and I pick up my pace to walk behind them.

****
"You don't need to cover up Maya. You look hot!" Bea says and not for the first time today. We have been on the beach soaking up sun for a few hours now and Bea has been pestering me to stop trying to cover up in the ridiculous bikini I'm wearing. I currently have a magazine covering most of my chest and my sundress is wrapped around my torso in my bid to cover up.
"Come on, take those things off so we can go swim. Or you want to get your dress wet? Don't be a spoilsport Maya."
"Why the hell did you buy something like this in the first place!" It's my turn to throw her daggers with my eyes. I can already imagine the daggers hitting target!
"Hey! Don't look at me like that! Your husband requested it." She says and my mouth fall open.
"Speaking of your husband, here he comes." Beatrice must see the panic in my eyes because she squeeze my shoulder.
"He's drawing the attention of all the women on this beach, both married and single Maya." She says and I growl.
"He isn't paying a single one any attention. His eyes has been on you since I saw him coming." Beatrice says softly. Could this be true? I mean there are a lot of women in bikinis on this beach who are so much prettier than me.
"Here's my advice. Take the initiative and show him you ain't scared of intimacy. Here he is, Good luck!" She smirk after this and suddenly, my sundress is off my body along with the magazine.
"Hey Derrick! You are going to have a sun burn. Maya has the sunscreen." She says to Derrick who I can feel behind me. My whole body is already buzzing from the proximity.
"Be a good wife and slather sunscreen on my in law will you?" Bea throws at me before she race off towards the beach with my sundress. Traitor!

Derrick:

Beatrice saunter off towards the beach where my obnoxious friend is waiting with open arms. I chuckle before I plop down on the beach bench just beside Maya. I can see how stiff she is. My eyes scan her amazing body and it takes everything in me not to stare too much. She's obviously uncomfortable with the way her eyes are avoiding looking my way.
"Don't pay your friend any attention Maya. I'm fine." I say to ease her. I don't think it's a good idea to have her hands on me before I do something I'll regret. She's my contract wife. I'm already using her as it is, sleeping with her would be cruel. She's an epitome of innocence and I don't want to take that away from her too. When Maya doesn't say anything, I roll over to my stomach and close my eyes as the sun caress my back.

Maya:

Maybe Beatrice is right. I'm married to this guy. I want him so I should take the initiative. Right? I haven't even been able to meet his eyes since he came here. Even when I felt his gaze caress my bikini clad skin, I still resisted the urge to look at him.
"Don't pay your friend any attention Maya. I'm fine." He says beside me and I bite down on my bottom lip. Come on Maya! Take the initiative! I grab the sunscreen beside me and bite harder on my bottom lip to still my resolve. I can do this. I look up to the beach to see Xavier chase after my friend in the water. I hear Derrick shuffle beside me and I turn to see him lying on his stomach with his eyes close. He's just wearing a beach trunk with the sun glistening on those amazing muscles on his back. My hands twitch with the need to touch him.
"It's now or never Maya." I say to myself before I stand and sit quietly beside Derrick on his beach bench. I press some sunscreen on my palm then with bated breath rub it unto Derrick's back. We both gasp at the contact. Derrick's eyes are still clutched close. With tingles shooting up my fingers to somewhere private, I massage more oil into his back. My hands move upwards to his shoulders and I feel some knots which I expertly massage loose.
"Maya." I hear him whisper my name like a silent prayer and I have to adjust myself on the chair to prevent falling off.
"You're so good at this." He states with his eyes still close.
"I always do this for my grandmother. After her stroke, I always give her massages to soothe her always aching muscles. I wonder who will do it for her now that I'm no longer there.

. She has always been there to protect me from her son and I just left her there with those people. They can't take care of her like I did." I ramble off. I can't believe I forgot about grandmother! Tears pinch the back of my eyes and I can't even hold it back. Why am I crying? A stray tear fall down my eyes and land on Derrick's back.
He must have felt it because the next second he's up and engulfing me in his arms. His hand moving against my back soothe me too much. My heart feels so full I fear it's going to explode soon.
"Don't cry sweet girl." He whispers into my ears and his breath against my ear send shivers down my spine. I hear him growl as I pull away and look up into his eyes. His eyes look like blazing hot coals are they alternate between looking into my eyes and at my lips. We are so close, our breaths mingle.
"Sweet girl." Derrick breathes out and my eyes flutter close.
I can feel his lips so near. Kiss me Derrick. His hands caress my cheeks and I crave this kiss like I crave my next breath.

"Derrick!!!" The loud squeal startle us apart.
