Going on business trips was nothing new for Clark Northington, he was rather adept at preparing for them, and even dressing for the occassion. He had only been working around his travel partber for this trip Caitlin for a couple of months and the long flight to Hawaii was the first time they had not argued. Of course it was also the first time they simply hadn't spoke a single word to one another despite being sat next to each other on the plane and the shuttle to their hotel. It was, for all intents and purposes, music to his ears, like a good long listen at some relaxing classical music.<br/><br/>Dressed in a short sleeve button up shirt that was black with pineapples on it, blue and black patterned board shorts, and leather sandals Clark walked into the lobby of the Kahala hotel brimming with confidence as he carried a large but fairly light duffel bag and rolled his luggage.<br/><br/>The duffel bag housed floor plans for some new resorts on a few of the various Hawaiian Islands. Clark was old school, no technology to assist him in the floor plans or create three dimensional models and simulations, he preferred to do it all by hand. This did mean his work consumed a lot of free time and he was a bit slower than other new designers.<br/><br/>As Caitlin was talking to the woman handling check-ins he overheard the fact that they had been booked into one room, with one bed. The manager had confirmed it and there were no other rooms, his heart sank a little bit at that thought. Sharing a room, even a suite with her was going to be a nightmare, even worse was going to be the one bed scenario.<br/><br/>The view outside the sliding glass door that led to their balcony was nothing short of amazing. Of course Clark had seen it before, and as he looked at the couch, then back to the bed where Caitlin had flopped herself he got an idea. He walked into the room and flopped next to her on the double sized bed, barely enough room for both of them. "If you think I am sleeping on the couch after 18 years of doing this you are sorely mistaken. Besides I am longer than the couch, but feel free to take it yourself."<br/><br/>He took in a deep breath, not caring what her response was going to be and continued to lay in the bed face down enjoying the soft memory foam after a long flight.
