"This shouldn't even be attainable," Alexis said, gawking at the interior of my villa.
I smiled and dropped my bag, grabbing hers. "Cool, huh?"
She turned around to face me. "Yeah, that's a word."
I chuckled and she smiled, her hands on her hips. "Wow. Just wow."
"You know you're welcome here anytime," I said, walking into the master suite.
She followed, a curious look on her face when I turned around to face her. "How much is this thing?"
"Next question," I muttered.
She smiled and sat down on the bed before looking up at me. "A-am I allowed to sit on the bed?"
I chuckled and sat down next to her. "Yes. This is your bed for the week, anyways. Get used to it."
I pulled her into my lap and she smiled, raking her fingers through my hair.
"When you said I deserved some dick," she began, and I immediately had to remind myself to not roll my eyes.
I looked up at her and smiled a small smile. "What about it?"
"Did you mean..."
"I meant from wherever you can get it," I said, nodding up at her, "which is everywhere. You're a catch."
I patted her hip and she stood up, making me do the same. I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge, smiling when I saw beer.
"And you're perfectly fine with me just hooking up with whoever while we're here?" She asked.
No.
"Alexis," I chuckled out, popping open my beer, "you're not mine."
I took a sip and turned around to face her, shrugging. "I can't tell you who and who not to fuck."
She nodded slowly, which soon after turned into a quicker nod. "I-I was just making sure."
I nodded with a smile, leaning against the counter.
She smiled and turned away from me to walk away, but I stopped her. "I only ask one thing of you."
She turned around to face me again, twiddling her thumbs in front of her stomach. "What's that?"
"Don't..." I trailed off, shaking my head, "don't come back and tell me about it."
She looked taken aback but also as if she was expecting it at the same time, and I wasn't sure which one it was.
She nodded, her jaw clenching. "Same to you."
She walked into the bedroom and I watched, pulling my beer up to my lips. Technically, I was correct. She wasn't mine, and it wasn't my place to tell her what, or, in better terms, who she could and couldn't do.
But I knew she was going to take what I said and run with it.
I finished off my beer and placed the bottle on the counter, pulling out my phone.

Made it to the villa not too long agoI could see Alexis's slim, tanned figure walking towards me. I looked up from my phone and my jaw unintentionally dropped.
