“I have an announcement to make…” Natalie said grinning as they all gathered in the boardroom. “For Vlad’s birthday he wanted a boat party…” Vlad looked worried suddenly, Natalie smiled at him. “So….I’m taking the party to the Italian Riviera and have hired a hundred foot launch.” “What!” “Holy shit.” “Italy? We’re going to Italy?” Everyone exclaimed, Vlad was stunned speechless for a moment. “What about my friends?” He asked then. “They are all coming too…that’s why I said passports were required.” Vlad stared at her. “Oh. My. God.” He grinned and jumped up and flew at her, wrapping her in his arms and jumping up and down. “This is unbelievable…freaking hell, Natalie…I love you!” He kissed her on the lips and the room went deathly quiet. Natalie shoved him away. “For f**k’s sake!”
