Jojo
I couldn’t believe Benji went through all this just for me I mean I was a done deal he didn’t have to go through so much trouble but he did and for that I will always be grateful. His friend the photographer creeped me out a little but I could smile and pose for the photo’s because Benji was standing next to me. We cheers on each other and sipped our champagne. “This was very nice of you Benji.” “I want to give you everything in the world Jojo and starting with a proper engagement is only the first step. I meant what I said I didn’t think we were going to get on so well, I though I’ll get here and you will be a total snob and judge me for everything I did in Europe because you weren’t allowed to do anything. But I came back and you are so sweet, forgiving, strong and you want to stand on your own two feet, you wouldn’t believe how proud I am of you. Even with all the challenges you had with your parents you still went out and studied you stayed a fucking virgin for years. I really need to know what is the secret to that.” “That’s easy your parents threatening to basically kill you and to disown you if they ever find out.”
“Angel, they can’t disown you now I’m here even if they find out now you are pregnant, they won’t disown you that will be a breach of the contract they have with my parents.” “But what about the stipulation that I need to stay a virgin.” “Angel, we won’t tell them and they won’t find out okay. The only person that needs to know is me the rest of the people don’t have to know Jack shit about your sexual life.” I leaned forward and took his hand “Thank you Benji Thank you for understanding thank you for not turning your back on me when I told you.” “I would never angel. No matter how high of a pedestal your parents want to put you on you stay human and humans have needs.” “You will never know how much that means to me.”
The waiter came with two plates with silver domes on them, he put one in front of me and one in front of Benji, he filled our glasses before he took the domes of at the same time “Bon Appetit” He said before he walked away “This looks amazing.” I said. Benji cut into his steak and took a bite. “Mmmmm amazing.” I did the same cut a piece and put it in my mouth but I moaned. Benji let his fork fall. “Fuck women don’t moan like that or I’ll take you right here on the beach.” I was in a playful mood so I teased him I put another piece in my mouth and moaned again. “Jojo, I’m warning you.” “Benji, I don’t believe you this is way to public.” “Are you daring me?” He asked me super serious, that made me back track a bit “You wouldn’t?” I said I didn’t ask. “Oh, believe me this white carpet look very enticing right now.” “Okay I won’t moan again.” He laughed out load “Did I scare you there for a second?” I threw him with my napkin “Benji if the neighbors see us your mom will have a heart attack don’t even mention my mom.” “I was just teasing you angel; I wanted to see how far you will take it.” “Well, all the way if we didn’t have an audience.” That’s the first time he looked around him and saw people taking pictures of us. “Oh, fuck just what we need.” “Isn’t this a private beach?” “It is but they are not trespassing they are zooming in.” He got up grabbed my hand and said “Dessert will have to be in the room.” Luckily, we were both done with our main course.
“Wait.” I shouted as he basically ran up to the house. “What?” He asked. “Can I take my shoes off first?” “Yes, off course. Sorry angel.” He gave me his hand for support as I took the red Louis Vuitton’s off and then I said “Race you to the house.” But I was already a few feet in front of him. Needless to say, I won.
Benji
Everything went so well. We were even joking with each other, in having sex right on the white carpet that was the aisle when Jojo showed me, we had company. It was the neighbor’s taking pictures of us. Tomorrow this will be on every fucking front page of every fucking news paper in the Hamptons. It’s not like I minded but I wanted it to be special I didn’t want people to take photos of us which they are going to sell to the highest bidder. Jojo stopped me to take off her shoes, I should have known she couldn’t run in those heels but I was thinking of the neighbor’s taking photos. When she finally got them off, she said “Race you to the house.” Which put the smile back on my face. Jojo just knew how to make me smile and I actually love her for that.
She won me by a few inches we could have bickered about who was first but I told her she won. I didn’t want to bicker about something so small. Suzie came walking out the kitchen “And now who is chasing you?” “The neighbors are taking photos of us.” I told her. “Fucking nosy people.” Suzie never swears so that made me laugh. “Can I see the ring?” she asked Jojo. “Yes, off course.” She pushed her hand out to Suzie “You did well.” Suzie said but Jojo didn’t say anything about the ring yet. “He did.” Was the first reaction she had on the ring. “You really like it?” I asked her I was a bit insecure when it comes to things like this. “Yes, Benji how can I not be it’s absolutely beautiful.” “Not to big?” She hesitated for a minute. “I knew it.” I said. “For me it is but all that matters is the fact that you chose it and you didn’t send your secretary to buy the ring. I love it Benji I promise you I love it.”
