But it would soon be time for them to leave. They had been gone for nearly a month and were anxious about the happenings at work. Sean called the gym, trying to see if they could handle their absence a few more days. “So, what did they say?” Sandra yawned and stretched out her arms. “A little peeved. Some of the VIP clients are coming in asking for us, but they’ll survive.” Sean chuckled. “Cool. Because I am really liking it here,” Sandra said. “Are you?” Patrick asked, kissing the top of her head, then her neck and shoulders. “Good to know. If we were snowed in, we could have a really good time. What are you doing tonight?” He held her shoulders and turned her around to face him. “I don’t have any plans yet.” “Good. Go upstairs to your bedroom,” Patrick said. “Look on your bed and follow the instructions.” “Oh, okay.” Her curiosity piqued, Sandra ran upstairs, taking two steps at a time. When she arrived at her bedroom, she rushed in and went straight to the bed and found a huge box with a bow, and a note on top.
