Marissa had left a detailed message stating she had the keys ready and flights booked for their trip.
He and Xhex were walking through the tunnel from the mansion to The Pit, hand in hand to retrieve what Marissa had so generously had prepared for them.
The vacation was much needed and after this week even he was itching to be out of the mansion. He was still a little miffed at his best friend for being able to "perform" whilst he was not. Pushing that to the back of his mind, he reached over and planted a kiss on Xhex's cheek.
Reaching the door, he rang the bell and looked to Xhex and winked.

Smiling at John, she was so ready for this vacation. Especially after this last week. "I'm glad she was able to find something that worked. I really didn't know where to start with this. I know we wanted away, so we couldn't be dragged back at the drop of a hat, but finding a remote cabin with all the requirements we need was beyond my knowledge." Grateful for Marissa, she smiled again when her friend opened the door. "Hey, Rissa. We're here for keys."

*Swinging the door open wide she smiled at the sight of pair in front of her* John-Matthew! Xhex! So glad you could come now.
*Pulling her friend in for a hug, she grinned and gave John-Matthew a nod. Holding her arm out she led them to the living room.* Would either of you like anything..while I retrieve the keys and such from the kitchen?

He shook his head no and signed a thank you toward Marissa.
Looking around the room he saw everything here was designed for a male. The only things giving away that there were any females living here were their scent and a few fashion magazines littering the coffee table.
Sitting down on the couch he pulled Xhex to sit with him.

"No, we're good, thanks." She sat with John as they waited for Marissa to come back with what they needed. When she came back in the room, she carried a manila envelope. "Thanks again for this, Rissa. You have the connections needed and we just don't."

*Shook the envelop and heard the keys rattle around, scrunching up her nose she smiled* Everything is in here. The keys to the place, flight information. Your flight leaves tomorrow evening. You'll be arriving at your destination around 10:00pm local time.
*Handing the envelop to Xhex she placed her hands on her hips.* The family we've acquired this cabin from is a good family and is willing to help The Brotherhood in anyway possible. They've had their doggen stock the kitchen as well.

Listening to Marissa his eyes were lit with excitement. Finally time for just himself and his Shellan. No brothers, no guards...they could finally be together...without the drama.
Wrapped an arm around Xhex's shoulder and kissed her cheek.
Thank you Marissa. So much, we appreciate it more than you know.

She couldn't remember the last time she was looking forward to something this much. Finally, some time alone, in the peace and quiet of the mountains. "We mean it, Marissa. We didn't want to settle for my cabin, its too close and easy to be pulled away with one emergency or another. So, what are you and Butch up to this week?"

*Perching herself on the arm of the chair, she crossed her arms and shrugged* Nothing much, being holed up...*rolled her eyes*...sick this past week, wasn't good for my work at SafePlace. So, basically back to the routine and swing of things. I know that the Fall Festival is coming as well.

He stood and smiled, When we get back from our trip I'm sure we'll all be called to help with something for the festival
Looking to Xhex he shoved his hands in his pockets and rocked back on his heels, he was ready to go pack and get things rolling for tomorrow night.

She winced. "Right, the Fall Festival. I'm glad that's still some time away and we get some relaxation before that. I'm definitely not in a party mood with tons of people. At least not yet. But whatever you need from us after we return, just say. We owe you huge for this." She shook the envelope. Standing, she glanced to a fidgety John Matthew. "I think we'd better start packing and getting ready for this trip. Thanks again for handling everything, Rissa." She pulled Marissa into a hug. "I'm glad we're going away, but I think I'm going to miss you."

*She returned Xhex's hug, pulled back and held her at arms length, tilting her head* I am going to miss you as well, but you will have a fabulous time this week....and you can tell me all about it when you return. *She smiled big and wiggled her brows a bit.
Walking them both to the door, she held it open for them and waved as they made their way back to the mansion.*
