Chapter Forty-One

Austin

I had tried to be a good host and give her a tour of the harbor, but the conversation had turned personal and now I found myself holding her hand and confessing all of the problems I was facing as I tried to run Marks Enterprises. Emily looked up at me with eyes that made it incredibly difficult for me to not touch her and the hand on my arm was pushing me close to the edge. The funny thing was that I was okay with just sitting here feeling her hand on mine and not rushing her off to the stateroom for wild sex. I wanted her, to be sure, but there was something about her that made me want to do things the right way and not screw it up like I had so many other times.

"So, yeah, I'm not sure what they're up to, but it's definitely not good," I sighed.

"What are you going to do?" she asked. I could feel her hand resting on my arm and as my fingers traced a light path across the back of her hand, I could hear her breathing change ever so slightly.

"I'm going to meet with the crew leader again, and I'm going to try and figure out a way to make sure the crew doesn't strike," I said. "But I don't know how to make that happen."

"Why not just offer them a contract that says you won't hire anyone else?" she offered. "I mean, that's what happened with the flight attendants a few years ago and it seems to have worked out pretty well, if you ask me."

"Holy moly, you're right!" I cried as the words came out of her mouth. "We did do that, didn't we?"

"Yes, and everyone benefitted from it," she said. Then, she looked at me and tipped her head. "Where are we headed?"

"Oh! I want to show you this really cool beach and then we're going to head back up the coast to my house," I said.

"Wait, you have a house in Sydney and you stay at the hotel?" she asked confused.

"Yes, I do," I shrugged. "Well, it's a little bit bigger than your average house, and it requires a staff and all kinds of things, so sometimes it's just easier for me to stay at the hotel than to try and get everything together to go to the house. Plus, it's a little far away from the city if I have to be there for meetings in the hotel, which is usually what I have to do,"

"Oh, I see," she said nodding and looking away. She was thinking something, but I couldn't tell what that something was and I didn't want to upset her by asking.

"We don't have to go to the house," I quickly offered. "I just thought it would be a nice place to have dinner together without all of the interference that happens at the hotel."

"I see," she said moving back at little bit. "Well, then do go on."

"Emily, what's wrong?" I asked.
