after turning off her alarm.
    “I can’t wait to stop hearing that alarm at the crack of dawn every day.” Matt pulled her closer and gave her a tight squeeze. “It will be great. You deserve a vacation. A lot has changed lately.”
    “It’s the first weekend I won’t be working since I’ve been at Art Marketing.”
    “Well, first of many then. Shower up, breakfast. I have lots to do today.”  Matt had been noticeably more tense since she returned after her break of two days. She came back to him with a ‘yes,’ but a yes to what was a bit confusing at the moment. She felt she was falling for Matt and falling hard. However confusing this break of a few days was, something had changed when she returned. He was still Matt, but he seemed worried and pensive.
    ‘Did you want me to come back?” Eve ran her fingers over his shoulders, down his back, and looked up into his eyes.
    “What? Of course. What makes you say that?”
    “You seem different. Maybe upset about something?”
    “Nothing at all,” Matt said. “Worried I’m going to have to punch Geoff Smyth in the balls eventually, but apart from that—”
    “My dream come true!”
    “I’ll probably be taking my business elsewhere soon anyway.”
    “Oh no, no, that’ll be really bad for me at work— ”
    “You won’t be there much longer anyway, so it won’t matter. Will it?”
    “And where will I be exactly?”
    “Somewhere much better and much more lucrative. You’ll get a glimpse this weekend. Anyway, you’re going to be late. I’ll toast a bagel for you. I’ve got to get to work on my new piece.” Matt slipped into some pajamas and trotted down the stairs. Eve watched him go and slipped back under the covers. Something was going on. They hadn’t had sex since she came back, but before that he had seemed insatiable. Perhaps he was just tired. This had been a big week for her; perhaps it was for him as well.
    Showered and fresh, Eve nearly ran down the stairs yelling out, “I didn’t realize what time it was. Got to go,” she grabbed her bagel, work bag, and purse, “see you tonight.”
    “Yeah, see you tonight. Last day with your little friend by the way.”
    “I’ve almost forgotten it was on.”
    “That’s because you have such incredible discipline. You’re an amazing woman, and your sacrifice makes you even more beautiful,” he cupped her face with his hands. “See you soon.” A goodbye kiss and Eve was out the door feeling on top of her game.

    Eve sunk into her buttery leather seat on the jet. Its contrast stitching and various controls signaled that you far from coach. Eve had another poor day at work, but she finally had somewhere and someone very exciting to look forward to. Matt opened an account for her at Nordstrom’s, and she had shopped quickly for the trip before jumping into a taxi for Reagan Airport. As she had walked out to the plane escorted by a private security team, Eve felt wowed by what a dramatic shift her life had taken.
    “Matt, you’re here already,” Eve gave him a hug and sat down next to him.
    “How are you? Good day?”
    “Good now anyway, and that’s all that matters.” Eve looked up to see Henri directing his baggage into some locked compartments.
    “I see my poker buddy has made it,” Henri smiled at her, as she crossed her legs and tucked them under her. “Gabriel is coming too, so you’ll have plenty of money to steal from us. Matt, is everything prepared down south?”
    “Of course,” Matt shifted in his seat and turned away from Henri. Eve noticed this small disconnect. Something was bothering Matt and like any woman she was now determined to find out, but in due time once they’d arrived. There were too many people around.
    “Lady and gentlemen,” their stewardess paused for her lame joke to take effect, “please be advised…”
    Eve tuned the stewardess out and looked out the window down onto the ground crews lifting blocks and heaving the last of the
