She tossed the last swimsuit into her suitcase and zipped it shut quickly. Turning to the man behind her, she smiled. "Ready to go?" she asked.
He looked a bit nervous but managed to smile back as he replied, "Of course."
She laughed and hugged him. "It's just my family, not a pack of wild animals."
"There's a difference?" he returned smartly.
She giggled and swatted at him before kissing him lovingly. "You'll be fine." she stated matter-of-factly.
"What if I want to... you know? With your mother around?? I mean, we're all sharing a suite. You have to be a bit nervous too."
"Nah... my mom is cool. She won't mind. She already knows we're sharing a bed. Just loosen up and don't worry about it, okay?"
"I guess I can try. I hope you're right. I don't want your mom to hate me or anything."
She laughed again and kissed his cheek. He's so damn cute, she thought to herself.
He lifted their bags and carried them to the car, and they drove down to the beach with her family. After arriving at the hotel suite, everyone settled in. They had their own room, but they shared a bathroom with the rest of the family. She kept teasing him by pinching his butt and biting his neck when they were together, and he got very embarassed in front of everyone.
The next day, everyone went to the beach except for them and her mother. She wanted some time alone with him and knew her mom wouldn't interfere, but he was still nervous about it. They laid on their bed, with her in his arms, and snuggled together quietly.
Suddenly, she jumped up from the bed and grinned down at him. "Let's take a shower. Together. Come on," she said as she grabbed his hand.
