For Henley

Jack stays out longer than he means to, in the end, but he finds out the resort is actually kind of huge. Lillie had shown him some of the types of rooms they had, and then some of the cabanas, and then the pools, and then the restaurants, and by the time they get back to the lobby, it's been well over an hour. Jack has long since shrugged out of his jacket, and he doesn't bother to put it back on as Lillie leads the way back to her desk.

"So?" she prompts. "Should I set up a reservation?"

"That would be awesome," he agrees, leaning on the front of the podium and crossing his ankles and setting the bottle of water she had picked up for him to the side. "They're gonna love this." Lillie chuckles again and turns to her computer. "Though I should, uh. Maybe go actually tell them about it and pack and everything, so maybe make it for tomorrow?"

She nods, hitting backspace and then beginning to type again. "The cabanas, right? Four of them?"

Jack nods. "Yeah, that'll work." Considering how infrequently Henley sleeps in her own room anymore, it feels a safe bet. "And thanks again for showing me around."

Lillie hits a few buttons and then sits back. "It was my pleasure. It's nice to meet you."

"Same," Jack says before he straightens, picking up his water. "So, uh. We'll be back?"

"We'll be here," Lillie returns, and Jack pushes away from the desk, heading back toward the door he stepped through.

It barely takes a moment for him to find the pin for the suite, and he doesn't bother with the elevator this time, just steps through onto the hallway leading into the suite. Immediately, he feels the connection click back into place at the back of his head, and he lets out a breath as he pushes open the door to the suite and steps inside, tossing his jacket over the nearest piece of furniture.
