That was the second that all my gentlemanly thoughts went out the window.
Standing with her still wrapped around me, our bodies molded together and dripping wet, I took her where I desperately wanted her.
To bed.
* * *
I wasout of my lust-induced mind.
So, it was any wonder I remembered to snag the baby monitor off the marble countertop as I carried Teal from the bathroom and laid her on the bed. Too caught up in the need to show her exactly what she asked for, I didn’t give a damn about the sheets getting soaked from her damp body.
A body I had every intention of worshiping.
Right after I tended to Denver who had impeccable timing and just let out battle crying looking for attention.
Teal started to move, her naked body a serious glorious masterpiece that was every bit as exquisite as I’d imagined it would be. Even more so.
“Baby, stay right where you are,” I told her, resting my hand on her soft, still slightly round belly as she kneeled on the side of the bed. The feel of it brought back memories from two months earlier when I helped her give birth to one special little boy. “Wait for me, yes?” I asked, slightly worried she would change her mind, but if she did I would be okay. I only wanted her to do what felt right and that was all up to her.
“Always,” was her reply as she looked down at where my hand lay. Then her eyes came back to mine, a lightbulb sparking to life as she realized how gloriously naked she was, and a timid smile lifted her cheeks.
“You have nothing to worry about, sweetheart, you’re gorgeous. Every inch of you.”
Her cheeks painted a rosy red, she looked at me with disbelief. “I don’t think this is what men fantasize about.”
Removing my hand from her stomach, I cupped her cheek in my palm.
“You’re my fantasy, Little Momma.”
Leaning in, I touched my lips to hers tenderly. It was a brief kiss and then I pulled back. “Be right back.” I moved away reluctantly, dropping my hand from her face, and headed for Denver.
First I had to make a quick pit stop in my room to change clothes since I was soaking wet. I’d clean up the floors later, the minor detail was just another thing keeping me from the precious guy in the other room and my woman, both who were waiting for me. I shed everything and threw on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt so I could head to the other room.
“Hey little man,” I whispered as I gave him a bottle and rocked him in the white, wooden rocking chair I’d made for the mother and son duo just shortly before he was born. It was something I enjoyed doing and everyone should have one. I’d secretly worked at Alley’s when I had breaks in my day, even though Teal had thought I was going out to see clients.
It turned out great and she loved it.
I was good with my hands.
Something she was about to find out.
Not appropriate thinking while I held her son in my arms, I looked down and found that he’d finished eating. Placing the bottle on the small table next to us, I burped him and started rocking once again. Before I knew it, he was sleeping soundly in my arms.
Slowly getting up so as not to wake him, I moved toward the crib and laid him in it. I looked down at Denver and smiled, my heart full of love for him. I didn’t give a shit who fathered him, that was a technicality that meant nothing to me. The only thing that mattered was that I considered him mine and I wanted to be the father he deserved. I prayed Teal would let me be that man for him and something a whole lot more for her in the future.
A soft chuckle escaped me at the idea I was completely losing it over those two and how bad they had me wrapped around their little finger. And I was more than okay with that.
“Hey Denver, since I’m already in your office, I wanted to ask you a very important question since you’re the man of the house.” I knelt down so I was on his level and looked at him through the slats of the crib. “Would you be okay if someday soon I convinced your mother to marry me? I want us to be a family, Little Man.”
I was talking to a baby who wasn’t going to answer. Another good tell, that I was head over heels in love with not only his mother but him too.
Raising to my feet, I kissed the tips of two fingers and touched them to his cheek. It was time to get back to his mother. My, ‘Be right back,’ turned into a lot longer than I’d thought. And although I didn’t know the exact amount of time, I knew I was dying to get back to Teal. With one last glance at the crib, my heart thumping with love, I headed toward the woman of my dreams.
Everything I went through before was worth it, I thought on my way back to the bedroom. The pain, heartache, and betrayal, because it led me to where I was today. With Teal and Denver. And I wouldn’t change a single thing, because they were my heart.
I walked into the room and headed straight for the side of the bed where a soft sleeping form was curled up, a blanket tucked up under her chin, one hand resting under her cheek between it, and the soft, fluffy, white pillow. She looked as peaceful as her son and there was no way I could wake her.
Walking around to the other side of the king-size bed, I slipped off my shirt and crawled in behind her. After what we shared and me seeing her naked, I hoped she would be okay next to me with only my shorts on when she woke. I just wanted to feel her against me.
