My wife and I are both 35 and have two children ages 4 and 5, we planned a trip to Glenwood Springs, CO for a late fall vacation, we decided to invite my wife's sister and her family, her sister is 29 and has three children very close to our kids in age. Once they confirmed their willingness we rented a large house for the week and we met at the rental.
Our first day we caught up with each other mad plans for the following day and finished the evening early with drinks. My wife and I were had an appointment for a 9:00 a.m. couples spa treatment planned. Terry was planning a pre-dawn hike into the mountains and planning on being back around noon. Michele, my wife's sister was planning on sleeping in and watching both her kids and ours.
During the night our youngest became sick, my wife was up with him several times throughout the night he was nauseous and had a medium grade fever. Around 08:00 my wife came to me stating that she wasn't going to be able to make the appointment and that I should attempt to get Terry and Michele to go in our place since it was already paid for. I went to find her and lightly knocked on her door, she came to the door and opened it enough for me to take note of her sheer nightgown and I proceeded to explain our situation explaining that if the appointment maws not used then we would still have to pay since we were inside the 24 hour window.
She said that she would attempt to call Terry and see if he was close enough to make it back by 9:00, she seemed excited by the prospect but argued weekly that she would take care of our sick child. About 5 minutes later I heard a soft knock on our door and Stephanie answered it, Michele entered and explained that she couldn't reach Terry because he was out of cell range. She insisted that Stephanie and I go and allow her to watch our child.
I called the spa to see if we could reschedule or receive a spa credit for individual massages. I was told that they couldn't because the treatment rooms had already been set up and the therapists were already there. My wife was insistent that she be there for our sick child and suggested that Michele and I go as a couple. I put up a fake protest but secretly the prospect sounded fun, I genuinely enjoyed being around Michele. We ultimately agreed and we were off by 10 till nine. We arrived and were greeted as Mr and Mrs Smith and I didn't correct them, neither did Michele.
We were instructed to go our separate ways to the dressing rooms where we were asked to get undressed and dawn robes and once done to relax in the solarium with juice or water. I was out in short order and Michele not long after, we sat there just chatting about the drives to get there and etc. Within about 10 minutes the hostess came and got us and took us back to a treatment room.
