“What I should have done a long fucking time ago.” I pulled her into me as tight as I could, needing to feel her, as I crashed my mouth onto hers.
Cameras snapped all around us, cheers and applauds echoed throughout the stadium. “The whole world is going to know exactly who you are to me and there is nothing fake about it.”
I felt her lips smile against mine. “You’re nuts.”
“Just for you. It’s all for you. I’m sorry I didn’t get it. That I made you feel like we were nothing. You are, and have been, my everything.” Her legs wrapped around me and despite the thousands of people watching, it felt like it was just the two of us.
“Everything with you has been real. It just took me far too long to figure it out and for that, I am sorry.” My hands wove into her hair tugging her closer as my forehead rested against hers. My heart thumped wildly in my chest. “I’m in love with you.”
She gasped just as the bucket of ice-cold Gatorade was dumped over us.
“You two look like you could use a cool down!” Kev screamed over the roar of the crowd.
April and I both shrieked.
“Way to ruin the moment, dickhead,” I grumbled, shaking off the ice.
Once the celebrations finished, I dragged April away and into her office where there were no prying eyes.
“I have something to show you.” I beamed, placing her down on the desk and reaching into my pocket.
“I bet.” She giggled.
“Not that,” I scoffed, but grinned at her dirty thoughts.
I pulled out the paper and passed it over to her. She eyed me suspiciously as she took it and carefully unfolded it. Her eyes widened as she read it over.
“What the?” Her eyes found mine. “Is this?”
“Yeah. It’s official. It just needs your signature.”
Her mouth gaped and closed. “But, when?”
“Once I realized what it was I wanted.” I paused, gauging her emotions. “I hope you want it too?” I asked shyly.
She fell into my arms. “Oof.” I grinned, catching her. “Is that a yes?”
She kissed me. Hard. My hands found their way to her ass as her legs wound around my waist.
“Yes.”
My head dipped down to her soaking wet shirt, nipping at her jersey.
“Can’t have you catching a cold.” I winked and tugged it off her.
She yanked me closer and planted a kiss on my lips. We both frantically tugged at our pants. Hers landing on the floor and mine around my thighs. She gripped my cock and pumped it a few times. My lips found hers, she was as hungry for me as I was her. She lined me up, letting me know exactly what she wanted.
“Baby, you’re going to have to be quiet,” I said, slipping into her. Fuck, it felt good to be home.
EPILOGUE
The coffee shop was bustling this morning. The cold November rain wasn’t helping. Everyone was packed in. It’d become our traditional Sunday morning breakfast in the past two months. We had just finished our orders.
“Jake and Millie wanna know if we want to go to the Italian place or Teppanyaki for dinner next week,” he said, after glancing at his phone. I mulled it over, but before I could answer, he gazed at me lovingly. “Teppanyaki.”
“How did you know?” I laughed.
“I know my girl.” He winked and I couldn’t help the warmth spreading across my chest. I loved it when he called me his girl.
