Tom and Santino’s anniversary is coming up, and Tom has a plan. He’s going to show Santino how much he means to him. The night will be magical.<br><br>Tom’s plan did not include a trip to Thailand. He doesn't do aeroplanes, doesn't do tropical climate, and he doesn’t do spas. Yet he finds himself without a stitch of clothing on a spa table, with a man he's never met before while Santino is away on a business meeting.<br><br>This was not how it was supposed to go. Tom will do his best to live through the day so they can celebrate their anniversary when they get back to the hotel, but If Santino wanted him smooth and sparkly, couldn’t he have told him instead of booking him an appointment?

Getting back to the hotel was an utter nightmare. I was suffocating in the heat, and being unsure of which way to go had me taking a couple of wrong turns, so I ended up walking a kilometre or two extra.


As I wandered around, sweat poured out of my skin. Without any hairs for it to get caught in, droplets slid down my abdomen and back. The waistband on my sweatpants turned dark grey, my skin itched, and I feared that my underwear resembled a bloody pi?ata explosion. I could see my tingling skin becoming redder than it already was.


Why had Santino wanted this for me? My stomach was in knots. I wanted nothing more than to take Santino in my arms, kiss the ever-living shit out of him, fall to my knees and propose, but I was…humiliated? Why did he want me hairless and sparkly? Why couldn’t he have told me?
