“Great job, bud!” Sawyer called out. Gavin grinned and got out of the pool and Sawyer moved on. Everyone was having a good time, kids of all ages, and adults too. This was definitely their company’s most kid friendly resort.
Sawyer tried to think of a project being completed giving him this immense level of satisfaction, and he came up blank.
Ford yawned, and Sawyer looked in his direction, and then Ford laughed and covered his mouth. “Sorry.”
Sawyer held his arms open for Ford. He could imagine Ford was exhausted. His boyfriend hadn’t stopped the whole night.
But the lodge was quiet now, and they actually had some guests staying.
“I’d say it was a success, and we should work on getting ready for the main opening. But not tonight,” Sawyer said.
Ford started to laugh, but yawned again, and Sawyer’s arms tightened around his exhausted boyfriend.
Gavin and Savanna walked in and sunk down into an oversized sofa.
“Are we going home?” Gavin asked. He leaned back against the sofa, and Sawyer looked over at Ford.
“Actually, I have a surprise,” Sawyer said, not breaking the hold on Ford’s eyes. “Follow me.” He walked over to the elevator, and Sawyer turned back to Ford and the kids.
“You have plans?” Ford asked. “What’s going on?”
“You’ll see.” Sawyer reached into his pocket and brought the key that felt like it had been burning a hole in his pocket all night. “So, I thought we should check out the hotel service,” he said. “What do you guys say?”
Gavin and Savanna were very vocal about how they felt about it. Ford seemed a little more hesitant. “We’re staying here?” he asked. “We’re about five minutes from home.”
Sawyer snickered. “More like fifteen, but who’s counting? I just think that we should see how things are, so we can without any uncertainty, give our recommendations to this place.”
Ford laughed. “Oh…is that so? You would give a bad review, even though you’re the owner?”
Sawyer laughed. Ford had a valid point there. “Just stop worrying about it. Do you not want to check this place out?” He pouted out his lips, and Ford laughed.
“Actually, I think it’s a brilliant idea.” He wrapped his arms around Sawyer’s neck, and they kissed.
Savanna cleared her throat, and they broke from the embrace, turning to face her. She arched an eyebrow and tapped her foot on the floor. Sawyer and Ford snort laughed, and she shrugged.
“Let’s go check out the room,” Sawyer said.
Gavin rushed to the elevator. “What floor?”
“Top floor,” Sawyer said in response.
Gavin got on the elevator. He looked at the buttons and pressed the one for the floor which Sawyer had instructed. When the doors opened, they exited and walked down to one of two suites on that level. Sawyer slid the key card into the door, and when he opened it up, both Gavin and Savanna stared into the room, and their jaws dropped. Savanna was the first one to turn around.
“This is our hotel room?” she asked.
Sawyer grinned. “This here is our suite. It’s called the Presidential Suite, to be exact.”
Gavin looked at them, then walked over to another room. There were three extra rooms off of the main room. It was big enough that Sawyer and Ford could share a room, then Savanna and Gavin could each have their own room on the opposite side of the suite. Gavin came back out of the third room, shaking his head.
“Savanna, you have got to see this,” he said.
She hurried over, and Sawyer turned to Ford. “What do you think about the surprise?” he asked.
Ford lips curved. “Well, I’m used to you surprising me.” Ford walked over to Sawyer, and they kissed. “And Callum?” Ford checked.
“I offered a room to your parents, but they objected and said they would just take Callum back to their house. So, he’s with them.”
Ford nodded. “Well, this is pretty amazing.”
“Wow!” Savanna said, breaking into their conversation. They turned to face her. “That bed is bigger than my whole room.” She laughed. “I’m teasing, but not by much.”
Sawyer walked to one of the three bedrooms. He peeked his head inside and then nodded. “What do you think, Gav?”
“Does my face not say it all?” Gavin asked. “This is my room.”
“Savanna already agreed to it.” Sawyer smiled.
“No problem,” he said. Sawyer and Gavin left the bedroom and walked out into the main room where Savanna and Ford were talking. They stopped when they noticed Sawyer. At least that’s the way it felt.
Sawyer arched an eyebrow, but when he looked at Ford, he slightly shook his head. Sawyer didn’t push for it. “Um…are we supposed to sleep in the naked?” Gavin asked. It was a question that seemed out of nowhere and Sawyer laughed. Although his brother didn’t sound opposed to the idea.
“No!” Sawyer said. At that moment, there was a knock at the door. He smiled. “Right on time.”
Ford frowned. “What are you up to?”
“You’ll see,” Sawyer said. He walked over to the door and opened it to a bellhop.
“Your luggage.” He pushed a cart into the room, then nodded and turned around and left.
“You really did think of everything.” Ford shook his head but he wore a smile.
Sawyer shrugged. “I didn’t want to miss a beat. I want this to be special.”
Gavin and Savanna went over to the suitcases. They grabbed the bag that had their name on it, then hurried off to their respective rooms without even a goodbye.
Sawyer laughed. “I’d say they’re excited.”
“Agreed,” Ford replied with a chuckle.
Sawyer turned to Ford. “What were you and Savanna discussing, if you don’t mind me asking?”
Ford grinned. “She was asking if we ever would consider adopting them.”
“Really? What did you say?”
“I asked how they would feel if we did,” Ford said. “If we were waiting for a sign, I’d say we just got it. If Savanna wants it, then I think Gavin would too. I’m sure they’ve talked about it. We
