Cuba
Fuck. I wasn’t ready for her to say she loves me, and I don’t think she meant to let it slip. I feel like an asshole for the way I handled it, but my mom and Mrs. E were right there, and I didn’t want to say it for the first time for them to witness. Oh, and I didn’t miss the way she tried to act like it didn’t happen, and she almost snatched her hand away when we sat down. She held my hand since we stepped in this house, she never left my side as I faced my past, and I froze up the minute she said I love you. Yeah, I would have deserved for her to snatch her hand away.
I think about it the whole time I’m in the shower, how I feel about her. What I need to say and how to say it. I don’t want her to think I’m saying it because she told me earlier. I have to show it and I think I have that part down. I hurry through my shower so that I make it back to the room before she’s finished, because she will go through that bag, I can’t have that. My body is halfway dry when I pull on my briefs and sweat pants, leaving my shirt off.
Slipping back into my room, I relax when I hear the shower still running. Going through my bag, I pull out the distinctive blue box and slide it under my pillow. I debate on stealing a bottle of wine from my mom’s wine cooler but go against it. If we were back at my place, I would really try to do something romantic, well as much as I can manage. Instead, I turn the TV on and go to Netflix while I turn down the bed covers. No lie, I’m nervous. Not only do I have to make up to her from earlier, I have to show her I love her too.
The door opens and I’m disappointed to see she’s already dressed in the little pink shorts I love and one of my old basketball shirts that she cut up, showing a sliver of her tanned stomach. Her blonde hair is up in a knot on her head, loose strands falling around her make-up free face. Sometimes I just stare at her, like she’ll disappear, and I’ll be back in my dark condo slipping away, into my depression. I owe everything to her.
A smile pulls at her lips. “You’re staring.”
“Can’t help it.” I motion for her come in the bed. “Come here.”
She squints her eyes at me but slowly climbs on the bed on all fours, and my dick twitches, not now boy. She settles beside me and I snake my arm around her, pulling her on to my lap. Bliss straddles me, and I have force my little friend to behave himself for now.
“I thought I told you no?” Her smile is saying yes, and her small hands on my bare chest are very inviting, but I push that aside.
“We’re just talking, baby,” I assure her. “I just want to say thank you for today, being there for me.”
She blinks back surprised. “Of course, I would be here for you.”
“Because you love me?” I ask slowly, watching her closely. Her cheeks heat up and her hand goes to her charm, rubbing it unconsciously.
She cocks her head to the side and nods. “Yes, because I love you, Cuba.”
There is no question or doubt in her voice.
Hearing her say it again jolts me even more, and with those stormy eyes on me, I feel it. She means it. Reaching back behind my pillow, I feel for the box and pull it out.
Her eyes widen once she sees it. “Cuba,” she whispers.
Cupping her cheek with my hand, I caress it with my thumb. “Arrow, I love you too, more than you’ll ever know. I wouldn’t be where I am right now without you. I pushed you away and you pulled me back.” A tear escapes from her eyes and I wipe it away. “Because of you, I’m breathing again, Arrow.”
She throws her arms around my neck and mashes her lips against mine. Her tongue slipping through my lips and I welcome it. My hand grips her waist as she leans into me, the box dropping from my other hand.
“Wait, don’t you want to see what I got you?” I pull away. Of course, I want to make out with my sexy ass girlfriend, but I also want to see her face, I’ve been nervous about this for days.
Bliss sits back, and I groan as my hard cock slides between her cheeks. She wiggles a little, and I pinch her ass, making she squeal.
“Stop teasing me.” I pick up the box again and hand it to her. She takes it, her fingertips brushing mine.
She purses her lips. “Okay, Mr. Knight.” Her lips pull into a smile. “I don’t know what I did to deserve Tiffany’s.”
“Really?” I scoff. “Trust me, you deserve it.”
Bliss pulls the end of the white ribbon, unraveling the small bow. She takes the jewelry box out of the gift box. She looks up at me through her thick lashes before looking back to the velvet box in her hand. She takes a deep breath before slowly opening it.
Her eyes widen. “Wow, this is beautiful.” She looks to me. “It’s too much.”
“Nothing is too much for you, baby. Ever.” I take the box out of her hands and lift the thin gold chain out, the gold heart pendent shines with our initials engraved with diamonds. It might have cost a pretty penny, but she was worth it.
She leans down so I can click it around her neck, and it sits right below her arrow charm. I can’t help but smile seeing it on her finally. Mine. She’s mine.
“I love you.” She presses her lips against mine again. “Thank you.”
“No, baby.” I kiss her back. “Thank you.”
Her tongue slips between my lips and I don’t pull away. Instead, I pull her closer, drinking her in. My hands slid under her shirt stopping beneath her soft breasts. She moans into me when my thumbs sweep over her hardened nipples. Bliss rocks back and forth, grinding against my hardening length. Fuck me. I need to be in her. The sooner the better. Sliding one of my hands up her tiny shorts, I’m surprised when I’m met with bare pussy, my finger free to run through wet warm lips.
