The Sixtenth Chapel
Waking up pretty-early, I walked out to the lounge and ordered some room service, while checking the time, we still had ages till, Karen’s sisters were turning up so I let her sleep and turned the TV on, not that I spoke Italian but watched a few American shows with subtitles.
“Hey your up early, what time is it?” Karen asked
As she had rolled over and noticed I wasn’t there and woke up.
“It’s just after six, I’ve ordered some room service.”
“Oh awesome, I might have a shower,” throwing a pillow at my head.
“Hey what’s up?” I asked.
“I’m gonna have a shower,” Karen replied.
“Oh okay cool, I’m gonna wait for room service or I would have joined you,” I declared, smiling back.
“Wow, your weird,” Karen whispered, laughing as she made her way to the bathroom.
Could have sworn I heard, Douchebag.
Smiling, I opened-up the door as room serviced arrived and set everything up.
I could still hear the shower running, so I took off all my clothes and jumped in and joined Karen.
“Hey room service is here,” I declared.
“I think that’s the worst pick up line you’ve ever used on me,” Karen replied smiling.
As I lightly nudged her out of the way and stepped under the water.
“So what’s on the cards today?” Karen asked.
“Well,” I said, rubbing myself with soap and getting all soapy.
“I think everyone’s coming here in about an hour or so what do you want to do?” I said, winking at Karen.
“Cut it out,” Karen whispered, as she kissed me and stepped out of the shower.
“I’m gonna have some breakfast and get ready,” Karen added.
“Yeah, I won’t be much longer,” I replied.
Rinsing all the soap off and turning the shower off and joining Karen out in the lounge. Luckily still wearing my towel cause our four guests had arrived early and snuck in and were helping themselves to my breakfast and coffee.
“Wow, I didn’t even hear you guys come in,” I said.
“Help yourselves to my breakfast though, won’t you?” I added, in an annoyed tone.
Stepping back into the bedroom as Karen was stepping out,
“Hey, I had a feeling they were outside so opened the door.”
“I’m just happy I wrapped the towel around my waist,” I joked.
“Ha, so am I,” Karen laughed.
“All right I’m gonna get changed I won’t be long,” I said.
As Karen left the room she shouted back, “I’ll get you a coffee.”
“Yeah thanks,” I remarked back.
Getting ready, it doesn’t take too long to head back into the lounge and Karen greets me with a coffee,
“Morning you lot, hang on a second,” I said, before taking a sip of coffee.
“Ah that’s better, how’s everyone feeling this morning?” I asked.
“Yeah good thanks Phil,” Lisa replied.
“So you guys want to finish your breakfast, then we’ll head off?” Georgia asked.
“With you all watching us?” Karen remarked.
“Ha, yeah get out of here,” I said, back laughing,
“Yeah, there’s a cafe just downstairs, we’ll meet you guys down there in what, twenty minutes,” Jeff mentioned.
“Yip, sounds good thanks Jeff,” Karen replied.
As everyone left, Karen
