see my man. Yay!  
    I’m going to Paris!

    *******

    “Why can’t I come, Mummy?” Wow, he’s really pulling out the big guns, bottom lip’s out, big blues blinking innocently.
    “Because this trip is important for Mummy and Sub but I promise that when we get back, which is only after a few days, we’ll have a lovely surprise for you and we’ll all have a holiday together soon, I promise.”
    “What’s the surpwise?”
    “Surprise, sweetie. It wouldn’t be a surprise if I told you.” I laugh, ruffling his hair. It’s a game we always play and a sure sign he’s coming around. “We won’t be away as long as last time.”
    “Good. You were away, forever!”
    “No we weren’t, I was away a week for work but Ninni and Gramps did so much with you and from what I’ve heard you are going to go fishing with Gramps this weekend.” If that didn’t seal it, I didn’t know what would.
    “Really? Cool! Will Nathan and Sub be there?”
    Shit! “No, Sweetie, they will both be in Paris with me but Gramps is a very good fisherman you can show him what you learned with Sub and Uncle Na.”
    “Will Ninni bake Cookies?”
    OMG. “Well why don’t we ask her - I’m sure she would love to do some baking with you.” Whilst mummy is getting a real good shag from Sub’s humongous cock - God am I a crap mother? I feel terrible now. No, I need this, Seb and I need this. “Poppet - you’ll have a great time and we’ll bring you back something lovely from France.” Like a step-Daddy.
    “Will you bring me some frog legs?”
    Uggh boys. “I don’t think so but I’m sure I can find something you’ll love. Right, time for your bed Mr.”
    “Mummy?”
    “Yes, Finnster?” I try to keep the impatience out of my voice after a long and tiring day.
    “You can go away with Sub and I’ll be good.”
    I melt, a puddle of love and mothering emotions like the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz, left on the carpet. “Thank you, darling I will take lots of pictures of Paris and we’ll take you back with us next time as Sub is working there a lot at the mo.”
    He nods, laying back onto his pillow, his eyes growing heavy, lashes thick and I squeeze him so tightly, he giggles to be set free. “Mummy, set me free. I’ve decided what I want you to bring me back.”
    “Oh and what is that.” I smile at his cute little nose, wrinkling impishly at me.
    “The Awful Tower!”
    I burst out laughing both of us giggling together like a pair of kids, he has every excuse, me not so much. “Who told you about the Awful Tower?”
    “Gramps. He said it was very tall and looked like an alien from Monsters Inc, with long legs, like a spiders.”
    “It is and I suppose it does a bit, and at the very top you can see right out over all of Paris.”
    “Cool.”
    “I love you so much you know that don’t you, Finn.” I rub noses with him and kiss his forehead.
    “Yes, Mummy - you tell me ALL the time.”
    “Well I do - now go to sleep you, little monkey. Thank you for being such a big grown-up boy about mummy going away.”
    I look down at my precious bundle and find that he’s already closed his eyes and is halfway to his dreams.   I wish it was that easy for me to find the land of nod, at the moment. My nights are spent tossing and turning in my king-size bed, wishing I was tossing off and being turned on by my magnificent man. Soon, we’d be naked, wrapped in hotel sheets and making each other groan in ecstasy. I cannot wait.

    The flight to Paris from Lords’ Airport takes an hour and 20 minutes, thanks to the strong tail wind that brings us in earlier than expected. The immaculately dressed flight attendant informs us that the weather is clear and a cool 5 degrees. I’m glad I brought my long camel wool coat and packed several pairs of boots. Bubbles of excitement pop around in my belly, as I check my appearance in my compact mirror and reapply a
