It was another great day for Ruby who was enjoying her new relationship bliss. There had been a few things for her to do since the professors had done all of them already. She had spoken to the professor and the students were going to have a fun time together without the oversight of the professors.
Everyone was busy talking about places they would want to visit.
'Gather up everyone,' Ruby called out and all the juniors came to her.
'Have you decided where you want to go?' she asked them.
They all began to shout and it was too much for her. How could they be so disorganized?
'Quiet! How about you write all the places down and we will take it from there?'
It took a while for them to write all the places down. After receiving the papers she made a few phone calls to arrange for transport for all of them.
'I will say this once and i hope that you will listen or there will be consequences. Whatever you do, don't lose each other and be careful!'
They all agreed in unison and she smiled.
'Good then. Let's meet back here for dinner and don't be late,' she told them.
In the next hour everyone was busy leaving for their chosen destination. This was good since not everyone has same likes, they will get to go to places they want and enjoy it all. When everyone was gone, it was just her group and the professors left. She walked towards the professors and stopped right in front of them
'Won't you be leaving too?' the female professor asked.
'We will leave shortly. What about you?' she asked.
'Don't worry about us. Just go and have your fun,' she said.
'Thank you, i will see you when we return,' she said and joined her friends.
'So where are we going today?' Nancy asked.
'I feel like shopping, what about you guys?' Ruby asked.
'We can do all in one. Let's go to the shopping mall,' Alex said.
'Good idea. Our ride is here,' Nancy said happily.
Ruby looked at Harvey who was quiet that she was wondering what was wrong with him. The seven of them took their designated cars that drove them to the shopping mall that was thirty minutes away from the hotel.
'We will call you if we want you again, maybe around four,' Ruby said.
'Okay Miss,' the driver said and left.
'So where are we going to first?' Jack asked.
'Shopping!' both Ruby and Nancy said at the same time and they all burst out laughing.
The group visited many shops until they all found what they wanted. They were in one shop where Ruby found something she was interested in. She couldn't stop staring at it.
'I can see that you love it. Take it, i will buy it for you,' Harvey said as he stood right besides her.
'Okay, thanks,' she said and picked up the red bikini that had stole her heart.
'I can't wait to strip you off that little piece,' he whispered in her ear and she blushed. She could feel her body responding and she couldn't wait for that to happen too.
'You have to earn it,' she said trying to calm herself down and began to look around for more. She just couldn't be around him in her state.
'I will sweep you off your feet, Miss Moon,' he said with a smile on his face and she blushed further.
'I will look forward to that,' she said with anticipation as she picked a number of sexy clothes.
After being satisfied with their shopping, they paid for the clothes and left for another shop. She wanted to buy something for Harvey since she had bought hers already.
'I have a lot of clothes, you know,' Harvey said as he struggled which color to pick for his t-shirts.
'I know, so just take it as a present. I want to see you wearing them. You should lose to me at a time like this,' she said and Harvey grinned and she knew she had won.
'Whatever you want, i will do,' Harvey said giving in.
'That's my boy. I will take just these two,' Ruby said and gave them to the sales attendant.
After buying Harvey's clothes they went to a jewelry store where they picked something for their mother and their niece and nephew.
Tired of shopping they finally went to a café were they refreshed themselves with ice cream until they were satisfied.
'We have about three hours left. How about we go and watch a movie?' Owen suggested and they all looked at him.
'That is a great idea,' Harvey chipped in.
After reaching an agreement the seven of them took the elevator for the cinema floor. They picked a nice movie and paid the tickets for the private room.
'We will buy the popcorns and the beverages,' Harvey said and they all divided the chores.
Ruby, Nancy and Jack went to the private room to wait for the rest of the guys that had went to buy the food.
'Guys i will be back,' Harvey told his friends and they all looked at him questioningly.
'I need to get something. I will be back in a moment,' he said and rushed off.
It didn't take a long time for him to reach the shop he wanted. He knew exactly what he wanted.
'Wrap this one for me please,' he said pointing at the object of his desire.
After paying for it, he rushed back to his friends who were almost done.
'You wanted to buy something for her? I can't believe this,' Owen said in shock. They have been together for like a few seconds and Harvey was already spoiling her.
'I just can't help myself,' Harvey said and Owen shook his head.
They took the beverages and the popcorn. They went to the private room and Harvey spotted Ruby and smiled. He walked towards her and she helped him with the food.
'Thanks,' she said with a smile.
'You welcome,' he said as he seated next to her.
Ruby had chosen a twin seat for her and him. They could watch the movie cozily, something he was dying for.
'What's that?' she asked him as the lights went dark.
'Its something i bought for you,' he said as he picked the bag from the floor.
'Umm, i love you more and more,' she confessed and he smiled upon hearing those words coming out of her.
'If i am going to hear those words every time i buy you something then i will make it a must to buy you a gift every day,' he told her as he leaned in closer to her making her body shiver.
'Then i will surely compliment you,' she said.
'Close your eyes!' he commanded.
'Why?' she asked jokingly, she wanted to just submit but there was that dominance in her that just didn't want to do what he wanted.
'Can you just do what i ask of you without questioning me for once?'
'Fine, i will do it. Happy now?' she said as she closed her eyes with a huge smile on her face.
Ruby wondered what he had bought this time. It was the second gift he was giving to her in just one day. Wasn't he pampering her too much? Its not like she hated it, she wasn't used to it at all.
Ruby felt Harvey's fingers around her neck, the way he was touching her made her body tremble with need but this wasn't the time for that. She felt the coldness around her neck and she knew that he had bought her a necklace. She rarely wore necklaces even when she owned a lot of them. It's not like she hated them, she just didn't like having something dangling around her throat but she had a feeling she wasn't going to hate having one on now.
'You can open your eyes now,' he said and she did.
When she looked at the necklace dangling on her neck she was filled with so much joy. She had seen the necklace before and loved it. It was a simple white gold and had a ruby pendant in the middle.
'I love it, thank you,' she said and leaned in close and gave him a kiss on his cheek as the movie began.
'I am glad that you love it. I would have hate it if you didn't since you don't wear necklaces a lot,' he said and she found him cute at that moment.
'Because it's you who bought it, i will wear it and never take it off,' she said and he took her hands in his.
'I am happy, thank you for everything,' he said as he kissed her hands.
'I love you,' Ruby finally let the magical words out.
Harvey looked at her and she saw how teary he had become in just a few seconds. She wiped away the drops of tears that were now shaking against his eyes with her hand she had managed to pull out from his grasp.
'I..'
'I know,' she said as she laid her head on his shoulder.
Ruby felt so happy and for the first time she didn't care about others. Even if they see her, she didn't care. All that mattered was this, what she was feeling at that moment and the person who was sitting by her side.
Harvey couldn't talk when Ruby confessed her love for him. It was the first time she said the words out loud after they began seeing each other. He was so happy that he didn't concentrate on the movie but just on her. Watching her eat popcorn, drink her soda, smile and laugh at the movie scenes made his day. He was okay just seeing all that.
The movie finally came to an end and they all left.
'It's almost time now, what should we do now?' Alex asked.
'I will have the drivers take us back to the hotel and we can do something while we wait,' Ruby answered.
Harvey watched Ruby as she made the calls, he couldn't tear his eyes off her. How could a woman be that beautiful and lovely?
'You really know how to melt a woman's heart,' Brian said as he approached him.
'She brings that side out of me,' Harvey answered back and saw a grin on Brian's face.
'I am happy for you. She is a precious gem, just don't break her. We all know how crazy she can be,' Brian said tapping his shoulder.
'I know and i won't let that happen,' Harvey promised.
'I am glad to hear that. She is happy and that is all that matters. Wouldn't want to be scared of her again,' Brian said as he chuckled.
'I get you there. She scares the s**t out of me sometimes but i love her still.'
'Same here.'
Ruby joined them after the call.
'They will be here in thirty,' she informed them.
'That's good.'
Harvey took Ruby's hand and she looked at him with a questioning stare.
'Just let me hold your hand please,' he begged her and she didn't even flinch.
'I hate you,' she said putting up a smile.
'I know,' he said smiling back at them.
'You two, can you tone down yourselves. This is too much,' Nancy complained as she fanned herself.
'You should have made sure you didn't come alone then,' Ruby attacked her friend and they all laughed.
They all had some cake while they waited for the transport to arrive. Harvey picked the red velvet cake for Ruby since it was her favorite.
'If someone were to see you two, they would think you have been dating for years now,' Brian said still taking in the scene right in front of him.
'We have been, for fifteen years,' Harvey answered and they all burst out laughing.
'That is not a lie. You have been together for that long after all,' Owen agreed with Harvey before giving Ruby a wink.
'Let's leave this two and focus on something else. I didn't come here for this,' Jack said shaking his head.
Ruby always felt happy whenever she sees her friends or family happy like that. Happiness was a cure of all diseases after all.
Their transport finally arrived and they returned back to the hotel. Ruby and Harvey remained cozy in the backseat.
When they reached the hotel everyone was gathered already.
'I hope you all had a great time. Prepare for dinner and tomorrow we will have a farewell party. So make sure you get your houses in order before we depart the day after tomorrow,' Ruby made the announcement and the juniors applauded and she knew they were excited about the party and nothing else.
Everyone separated and returned to their suites to refresh after a long day.
Ruby went back to her suite where she took a nice hot bath and wash off the tiredness away. It's been a long, beautiful and romantic day for her. She came out of the tub and put her robe on. She went to the mirror where she looked at herself and the necklace that was hanging around her neck. She really love it and she doubted if she will ever take it off. It felt like a dog collar though. Harvey had marked her and she was happy about it.
She had never felt like this before. She had never cared whether they were rich or not, all she ever wanted was to be loved but with her personality it was very difficult. They never seemed to understand her but Harvey did and that filled her with joy that she forgot how much their love was forbidden. She went through her closet and took out the clothes she had bought earlier. She picked one red mini dress and put it on. She wanted to look good for him and drive him crazy like hell.
Ruby left her suite and waited for the elevator.
When it stopped on her floor she wasn't surprised much when she saw him in there. His eyes locked with hers and she saw something so damn raw she wanted to collapse right there. He wanted her and she could see it and that was the main goal for tonight's dress.
He didn't say a word but pulled her into the elevator, embraced her in his warm hug she just wanted to remain there and never leave.
He took in her scent as if she was a f*****g dog and whispered against her making her body tremble with deep desire and need, 'are you trying to make things hard for me?'
'You can tell. What are you going to do about it?' she asked seductively.
'I can take this elevator back to your floor or mine and give it to you hard you won't be able to leave here, would you want that?'
'It's tempting but i prefer food now,' she said and gave him a peck on the cheek.
Those words were too much for her. She didn't mind having him do that to her. She could feel the pool between her legs. It's been too long since she was intimate with a guy and how much she wanted him fulfilling what he had just said but she was going to wait.
The elevator stopped and Nancy stepped in and looked at them.
'If you don't want to be caught then wipe that lipstick mark on your face,' Nancy said directing her words to Harvey who wiped his cheek.
'I will kill you one of these days!' Ruby hissed at her friend.
'You wouldn't do that. If you do then you will be lonely without me,' Nancy said with a devilish grin on her face.
'I am no longer lonely,' Ruby said with a smirk on her face.
'I think i will be the one doing the killing now,' Nancy said and they laughed.
'Where are the boys?' Ruby asked.
'At the restaurant already. You look beautiful in that dress,' Nancy said looking at Ruby.
'Thanks.'
The elevator arrived at the restaurant floor and they all got out.
'Harvey there is something i need to talk with your sister here,' Nancy said looking at him.
'Sure. I will meet you inside.'
Ruby looked at her friend after Harvey left.
'Spill it,' Nancy said looking at her.
'What are you talking about?' Ruby asked confused.
'What are you trying to do, wearing such a dress to dinner?' Nancy pointed out and Ruby laughed looking at herself once more.
'I just felt like it, don't you like it?'
'I love it but you are jut sentencing that kid to his death and just imagine the number of men that will be gawking you and fantasizing about all kind of things with you. Are you trying to see Harvey jealous?'
'I am. I want him to suffer and see that i can attract anyone i want. He won't have time to look at those young girls,' Ruby admitted and Nancy laughed.
'Didn't know you were the crazy jealous type but i like it.'
'How can i not be? Have you seen how hot he is?'
'So are you going to sleep with him?' Nancy asked.
'Not now. He is going to have to earn it,' Ruby answered with a smile.
'Girl you are trouble but i love it
Now let's go inside and make the juniors crazy,' Nancy said and began to walk towards the restaurant.
Just like what Nancy said, all eyes were on her, she could see the male's lust and the envy from the females. She loved how her male bestfriends looked at her as she arrived at the table. Harvey stood up and pulled a chair for her which attracted a loud cheer from the rest. Ruby smiled and sat down at the table.
'This is going to be interesting,' Brian said with a smile on his face.
