Somewhere during this journey I let myself fall back into the habit of him. All of him. I forgot between Wyoming and South Dakota that we live in two separate states, have two different lives, but now we have a daughter between us that he knows about. Well shit. Now that it popped into my mind, I can’t ignore that fact now I am going to have to share my time with her with him. “I’m sorry it wasn’t him,” Josh says, breaking me from my thoughts. Looking over at him, the butterflies in my stomach go crazy as usual. My heart goes a hundred miles an hour and my body feels like there is an electric current running through it right now.
“It’s alright. I didn’t really expect to find him, I mean it would have been nice, but I suspect it was more about the adventure of it, something I haven’t been able to do raising a child by myself, you know.” A look of sadness takes over his face and he stares at me, probably remembering I kept him from her, something I will always regret. Instead of bringing it up though, he simply wipes his thumb across my cheek.
“Yeah, I know.” Shoot. I wish I could say something, anything, to change the atmosphere between us right now, but the truth must be faced. “So what now?” he asks, turning down the road into the highway. That is what I didn’t want to face right now, but here we go.
“Now, I go home, and you go home.” I damn near choke on the words, the sorrow like tar sludging its way down my throat, suffocating me in the loss that is impending. I expect him to say something sure, but I definitely don’t expect the laugh. “What’s so funny?” I ask him, confused and a bit affronted.
“It’s funny that you think now that I have found you and Junie that I am going anywhere without you. You’re adorable.” My mouth opens and closes, not sure which thing to address first.
“Did you just call me adorable?” Yep, I chose to go with that.
“Damn right I did. Nothing you said is going to work for me, Peaches. Nothing short of everything.”
“Josh, let's be realistic. Your life, work, and family are in Seattle. Junie and I, our lives are in Arizona.” Once again, I can see the annoyance on his face as he pulls over to the side of the road. I look around frantically, not really sure of our surroundings but completely aware of him.
“Look at me, Peaches. I want you to be looking at me when I say this to you, so I don’t have to say it again.” My heart is going berserk right now. Somehow, I know whatever he is about to say is going to change our lives. “You and our daughter are my family. I can do my job from anywhere. Where ever you two are is my home. You have always been my end game, my forever, my love. I want us, this. I chose you and Junie.” Of course, I am a weepy mess right now. He is saying everything I have wanted to hear for the last five years but was too afraid to go for. I am not going to be dumb twice. But first…
“Are you sure? Are you sure you want this? All of this? Because it is chaotic, exhausting, hard, worrying, fun, exciting but most of all it is messy. Being a parent is all of that, by itself. Now add on a relationship, a new one, another dynamic such as a daddy/daughter one and it is bound to be all of that and more.'' He puts his hands on each side of my face and smiles before he kisses me.
He hasn't answered the question yet, but right now I don’t care. I am addicted to his mouth, his hands, his body and his cock. I am addicted to all the things he makes me feel and makes me forget. “God I missed you so fucking much, baby.” He moans into my mouth before kissing my neck. Hell, we are in the middle of nowhere but if he told me to strip right now I would. But, I also need to hear him say it.
“You never answered the question, Josh. Are you sure you want that?”
CHAPTER
SIXTEEN
JOSHUA
“I have never been surer of anything in my life, March. Marry me.”
“I…”
“Don’t say no. This was always the plan. I knew I was going to marry you the moment I met you.”
“Yes,” she says.
“We can be in Vegas in twenty hours. We’ll have a big wedding later, but I can’t go another night without being your husband.”
“Okay. Let’s do it.” She smiles at me, and everything is right with the world.
We drive to Vegas, and I pull into the first wedding chapel I see. We are married by Elvis and then check into a hotel. I don’t know where she found this beautiful dress, but it’s got to go. I kiss her lips, down her jaw, and slowly untie the knot of her dress of at her neck. It falls to her waist and her perfect tits are revealed to me. I bury my face in her chest sucking one nipple into my mouth and then the other. I find the end of her dress and run my fingers up her leg. I find her pantiless and I grin. She’s wet and ready for me, but I can’t help teasing her folds. She opens my pants and pulls my cock out stroking it. Groaning, I remove my fingers from her pussy and push her back on the bed. Her grip is gone from my cock. Pushing her dress up to her waist, I kiss her pretty pussy. Her hands grip my hair, hard and she pulls me away.
