Goodbye, beach house
(ARIELLE'S POV)
Everyone partied hard, and the party went on and on. The music was loud, the dance energetic, and the atmosphere charged. I took turns in dancing with everyone and it was a fun experience.
In between, I had asked for Maverick to be tucked into bed. He might be surrounded by adults, but it didn't make him any less a child. Jared had volunteered to escort him to his room, and Maverick had gladly gone with his Dad.
And hours later, just like everything that has a beginning has an end, the party came to an end in the wee hours of the morning. Exhausted and drained, everyone retired to their cabins. I collapsed on my bed the moment I got into my room, my body numb from all the activities. And the instant I stretched out on the bed, a blissful sleep enveloped me.
I didn't know how long I slept, but I woke up to sunlight streaming in through the little outlets in the window. I sat up, rubbing my eyes and a glance at the clock showed it was noon. I gasped, how did I sleep this long? I felt a little drowsy, but as I swung my legs over the side of the bed, I started to feel better and alert.
Still in that position, there was a gentle knock and the door went open. Maverick stepped in, and his face instantly broke out in delight when he spotted me. He broke out in a run, plopping on the bed beside me. "Hey, Mommy. Finally, you're awake."
He was dressed in a fresh set of clothes, and his hair was combed neatly. I smiled, feeling grateful about how well taken care of he was.
"Hi, baby. Yes, I'm awake. Did you sleep well?' I asked, running my grand through his hair, careful not to ruin it.
He bobbed his head up and down. "Yes, I did. Did you sleep well, Mommy?"
I nodded, smiling. "I did."
And then a smug smile appeared on his lips, the type he had on whenever he was privy to information. I looked at him suspiciously. "What is it? Come on, spill it."
His grin grew wider. "I know the age you turned, Mommy," he said, eyes sparkling with mischief.
