her.
Pussy-whipped or lovesick puppy?
W hile she showered, I looked at the cost for two roundtrip airplane tickets to San Francisco and the rates weren’t too bad. Pretty decent, I presumed. And then, my mind diverted to condos or houses in Seattle, so I looked at the real estate agent’s website and saw a few nice places. The apartment was fine, but I wanted something for us and besides, I knew it was a matter of time before Tyler asked Bekka to move in with him. He didn’t like being away from her.
“God, that felt good. I really needed that shower. I’m sorry it took me so long.”
I closed the website and prepared to show her the flights I had found. “No problem, baby. Here, take a look. I found a good deal.”
She removed her towel and sat on my lap, naked, and I almost lost my freaking mind. “Oh yeah, that’s the cheapest rate I’ve seen and the departure time is good too. Can you book them?”
I nodded, grabbed my wallet from the nightstand and paid for our weekend getaway. I sighed, still not sure about Brian, not sure about trusting him.
After that, I set my laptop aside and caressed the curves I craved. We fooled around for an hour without really doing anything. We cuddled, tickled, kissed and relaxed into each other’s arms.
“I love you, Nix.” I hadn’t said those words enough lately. “You drive me crazy.” I held her against me, wanting more.
“I have to get to school, babe. I hate to be the party-pooper, but I have to get dressed.”
“You suck.” I joked.
“I do and you never complained about it before.” She teased.
I laughed loudly, but hated the sensation in my boxers. I wasn’t getting any of this now.
She got up and reached her dresser. My eyes stared at her body, her curves and I enjoyed watching her getting ready. At last, I put on my jeans and t-shirt and drove her to class.
Beauty, my Harley, had missed me, and I her. Her motor groaned and Nix interlaced her fingers on my stomach. It reminded me of our road trip. That was the best damn trip of my life. My ass hurt from all the hours sitting on Beauty, but I spent all of those hours with Nix and that was priceless.
After dropping her off, I rode around town only to end up at my mother’s favorite spot. This place calmed me, reminded me of my mother and I missed her a lot recently. Her advice would have been grandly welcome. How to make my fiancée happy, my mom would have known. I sat there and enjoyed the scenery, the beautiful view and the sound of nature.
Deep inside of me, I had no doubts I had the potential of making Nix happy, but with the appearance of her father last weekend, she changed and I found it hard to deal with. She used to be so free and funny that seeing her now so lost in her thoughts scared me. Brian affected her more than she was letting me know. In my heart, I vowed to try harder, try understanding how she felt better. If it meant that I had to ask more questions, then, I was going to do it.
I looked at my phone and realized I had been sitting here for already two hours. My stomach growled, I was famished. Nix had a break between classes and bringing her lunch was exactly what I had to do. A surprise visit had to be something girls liked, right?
“I ’m happy to see you here, baby.” She hugged me and it never felt better. This was only the beginning. Her arms caressed my back and my muscles tightened. Thinking about my muscles, I had to hit the gym or go for a run. I was becoming lazy.
“I wanted to surprise you, and I didn’t want to eat alone.”
“Kyle’s not at the shop?” She asked, surprised. Kyle never spent too much time outside of the shop. It seemed to be his version of a home.
“I didn’t even go to the shop yet. I went for a ride on Beauty and ended up at my mother’s place.”
She looked at me, her eyes seeing through me, studying me. “Are you okay?”
“I am.” I smiled. “I worry that I’m not doing enough for you, but I’m here now and I’m
