The rest of New York.

The next morning Spencer and Dani were enjoying their relaxing lay-in. The crisp white bed linens that had been so neatly tucked away when they’d arrived, were now a discombobulated mess from their sustained fucking the night before.

“I could get used to this,” Spencer mused as Dani lay across his chest softly trailing her fingernails through his chest hairs.

“What’s that? The hotel rooms,” Dani asked.

“No. Although they are useful. I can keep you naked without having to risk Amy walking in,” Spencer laughed as he reached down and gave Dani a firm smack on her arse.

Dani yelped as her bum was paddled. It stung but she still enjoyed the erotic stimulation it brought, her back arching and her pussy rising in reflex. “So, if not hotel rooms. What is it? Fast cars? Faster women?” Dani rose herself up from her lying position and climbed into Spencer's lap. They were picking up his new Maserati later that day which would account for the fast car portion of what she’d just said.

Spencer took Dani’s hips in his hands and admired all over again how sexy she was. Small and petite with vibrant red hair, she was a wild one in bed. Spencer wasn’t sure he would be able to keep up with Dani if they were to start something sexual again that morning. “You were plenty fast enough for me last night. I need breakfast though,” he told her before unceremoniously dumping her off him and back into the scattered sheets and pillows.

Dani ended up on her stomach facing sideways towards Spencer. She used her hand to push her tumbling red hair out of her face to take in Spencer's naked body as she rose onto her elbows. “You still haven’t told me what you could get used to.”

“If you must know, I was thinking about waking up next to you every day. You spend how many nights at my place anyway?” It was 5 or more. “Why don’t you just move in with me? And Amy or course?”

Dani’s heart leapt. It was just what she wanted to hear. Spencer taking their relationship to the next level. “I’d love to Spencer!” In response Spencer leant down and kissed tenderly on the forehead, his hands cupping either side of her skull lightly. Dani cooed in response. As he stood back up Dani remained at eye level of Spencer’s cock just in front of her face. She couldn’t resist a cheeky comment, “I see my breakfast right there,” as she stuck out her tongue overdramatically.

“Oh, control yourself for once,” Spencer laughed as he reached down under Dani’s armpits and picked her up off the bed and put her down on her feet. “Come and have a shower with me.”

The pair moved off towards the hotel rooms ensuite, Dani a lot slower and moving gingerly complained, “God I can barely walk today Spencer!”

Spencer and Dani had nearly finished their breakfast in the hotel’s restaurant. They’d been discussing what to do with Dani’s house when she moved in. Spencer had suggested renting it out so that Dani would have extra money coming in. As the bank's employee Dani received a great rate on her mortgage and any rental payments would more than cover her costs. Their conversation had then moved on to the rest of the day before picking up the new car and returning to Avonwick.

“I promised Amy I would pick her up a few things while we were here,” Dani informed Spencer.

“Didn’t you get her a tonne of stuff the last time you were in town?”

“I did and it wasn’t ‘a tonne of stuff’. I don’t think you realise how much a young girl becoming a woman really needs.”

“Well, then we are doubly glad to have you.”

They were just about to finish up and leave when Spencer noticed Dan Maxwell entering the restaurant by himself and looking apprehensive. “Isn’t that Dan?” he said alerting Dani.

Dani waved at Dan and he made his way to them. Closer up Spencer definitely thought he looked a little nervous. “Oh hello you two,” Dan greeted them.

“Is everything alright?” Spencer asked sensing he should be concerned.

“Oh, no. It’s nothing. You haven’t seen Mia by any chance thought? She’s gone out this morning and I’ve just been trying to reach her.”

“Do you know where she’s gone?” Dani asked.

‘I, ahh, forgot to charge my telephone when I went to bed last night and it was dead when I woke up. It’s probably just an oversight on her behalf. I’ll find her. No need to be concerned. I’ll leave you to your brunch.”

Dani and Spencer were both left with a slightly worrying frown as Dan Maxwell wandered off looking as befuddled as he’d come in.

Over the course of that day, Spencer and Dani visited many of the retail opportunities that New York had as well as some of the tourist attractions. They’d found a host of things Dani wanted to bring back for Amy. Warmer, drier wet weather gear for themselves now that it was getting much colder. It would allow them to get out and go hiking in the mountains around Spencer’s farm. Spencer had bought a fancy dress watch for himself and then splashed out for a matching one for Dani too as well as a cultured sea pearl earring and necklace set. Dani joked that it was lovely to get a pearly necklace from Spencer that she didn’t have to wash off which made the saleswoman blush.

They’d had lunch in Times Square and stopped to take some selfies together to show to Amy once they were home.

Dani had tried to ring Mia a bunch of times throughout the day, but her calls had gone unanswered which made Dani worry for her friend.

In the early afternoon, they’d gone to the dealership and picked up Spencer’s new Maserati. It was probably Dani’s highlight of the day as the dealer had made her feel like royalty with gold service treatment from the moment they’d walked in. Dani had been given bottomless Champagne by the glass as well as a gift basket overflowing with seasonal fruits, artisan products and imported cheeses. Spencer was just happy to see Dani enjoying herself so much.

They’d left their belonging back at the hotel and had returned to collect them and check out. Spencer was behind the wheel of his brand-new car as Dani was already too tiddly to drive. Hotel staff were bringing their packed bags down to the car which was parked in pride of place out front in the driveway. Spencer was signing the incidental bill with Dani next to him as Mia and Dan Maxwell came out of the elevator together.

“I just needed to swap our passports. I took the wrong one by mistake,” Mia said firmly not willing to look Daniel in the eye.

“But you haven’t even said where you’re staying and now you want me to go back to England by myself,” Dan argued. “It doesn’t make sense!”

Things were getting heated, and the couple were drawing the attention of everyone in the hotel lobby, Spencer and Dani included.

“Do you still contact your ex? The cheap, Catherine Zeta-Jones-looking one.” Mia rounded with eyes wide and nostrils flaring.

“You know I would never do that. She’s crazy! I haven’t spoken to her since Cambridge.”

“LIES!” Mia swung and slapped Dan square on the cheek. The sound ringing out loud through the echoing lobby caused more than one person to wince at Dan’s instantly reddening face.

“Mia! Control yourself!” Dan grabbed at his wife’s wrists before she could hit him again and they started to struggle.

“I’ve read all your disgusting emails! Seen all the photos you’ve sent each other! Heard how you used to fuck her!”

Dan let go of Mia’s arms. His face crumpled in defeat.

“I want you out of my house! You’re pathetic. Don’t ever come back again. You can go and live with your whore for all I care. Fuck her how you used to. I’m done with you!”

Dan stood rooted to the spot he’d been as Mia turned and stormed off. Life returned to the lobby as people started murmuring what had just happened all at once. Dani told Spencer she had to go after Mia and ran to follow her friend. Spencer remained at the reception counter. He didn’t bother going to talk to Dan who still hadn’t moved.

It was half an hour later when Dani returned. Spencer had been waiting by the car for her to get back. Dani looked sad as she got in the Maserati, and they started their journey back to Avonwick.

“How is Mia?” Spencer asked.

“She’s devastated. She’s going to be staying here in The US for a time while things get sorted out,” Dani told him, relaying everything Mia had told Dani about catching Dan and his emotional affair. It was a sombre start to the car trip, Dani and Spencer getting back to the farmhouse in the early evening.

When they finally reached home and pulled into the driveway. Spencer was thrilled to see that his barn was finally complete and looked magnificent. Unpainted timber practically glowed in the dying light as the last rays of the sun came down through the mountaintops. As he drew closer, Spencer was surprised to see another car parked there, hidden by the barn initially.
