Isabella's Last Request by Laura Lawrence Read Free Book Online

dear, this man colour co-ordinates his clothes, he also has almost as many shoes as I do! I start to undress and wander over to the bed, the urge to smell his pillow overwhelms me… mmm, and it smells so nice. I’m about to open the draw beside his bed when I hear the door rattle. I freeze, not even managing to shout out.
                  ‘Oh Olivia!’
    Ollie covers his eyes in a flash but I know he’s seen too much. I’m standing on the opposite side of the room to the bathroom, wearing nothing but my very small, black thong which leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination. My clothes, including my bra, are scattered around his bedroom floor. Both of us appear to be frozen to the spot; I’m standing with my hands covering my pert little breasts, staring at Ollie. Ollie is halfway in the room, one hand on the door handle, one hand over his eyes. He could easily take one step back and close the door, but he doesn’t.
                  ‘I heard the water; I thought you were in the shower? I was going to choose what to wear quickly while you were showering.’
    Ollie is stuttering and dancing from one foot to the other, he looks mortified.
                  ‘I was just about to… Just let me grab my clothes and run to the bathroom and I’ll be out of your way.’
                  ‘No, no I’ll leave you too it. I’ll just grab my phone charger to call Josh; I can grab some clothes once you’re ready.’
    Ollie takes another step into his bedroom, dropping his hand from his eyes and once again seeing my naked body.
                  ‘Ollie!’
    He rushes out of the bedroom, slamming the door in the process.
                  ‘I’m so sorry, I completely forgot! I was just going to grab my phone charger to leave you in peace, that’s all I swear!’
    Ollie calls out his apology through the safety of the closed door.
                  ‘It’s fine, I’m going to the shower now, and as long as you promise not to open the bathroom door you can have access to your bedroom’
                  ‘Okay, sounds like a deal.’

Chapter Four
     
                  ‘So, is it really worth paying an extra $10 per person?’
    Isabella and I have been posing for photos next to statues of knights in shining armour. They may not be real, but we’re about to watch the real thing whilst we eat our tea, so we feel number 97 can be ticked off.
                  ‘Babe, Medieval Times is totally awesome; it should have been on your list in the first place. Oh, talking of the list; I’ve booked us all in for a hot air balloon ride to see the sunrise tomorrow.  Ollie, you may want to pull a sickie for this. I was thinking after that, we could head to Everglades and The Kennedy Space Centre? Make a full day of it.’
                  ‘Wow Josh, that sounds amazing. But don’t you think that’s quite a lot to do in one day?’
    Josh looks a bit hurt by my reaction and Isabella is now glowering at me. I know she agrees with me, and I know she’ll be too tired to do all of it in one day; but she’s afraid of offending her new boyfriend.
                  ‘Mate, Livs has a point. I’m up for the hot air balloon, but it’s too much for one day. How about we get up early, do that, I go back to work for the rest of the day, and then we can all meet for dinner at the All You Can Eat place. That’s another off the list, and we can do the rest another day?’
                  ‘I do have a point, of course, but there are two flaws with that. One, don’t call me Livs and two; we’re going to Discovery Cave to swim with dolphins tomorrow.’
    I don’t know what it is about Ollie but he makes me feel confident. I can say anything to him.
                  ‘Can we talk about this after? We paid extra to get in first and be in the front row seats, and we’re now wasting
