My clit is on fire, flames lick all over my skin, I am on the edge in seconds. It seems this man doesn’t even need to touch me to have me wild. He just needs to exist.
I grip tightly on to Garrett’s neck and kiss him hard as the pleasure shoots through my veins.
Oh shit, the orgasm hits me hard. Garrett continues to thrust into me harder and harder as he chases his release, and that takes my pleasure to the next level. My body is shaking everywhere and my legs quiver against his thighs as he cums. I’ve slept with other men, but it’s never been like this. Garrett can read my body like it’s his own. I don’t have to say anything, and he can already sense what I need next. I can’t get enough of him.
I continue to cling to him as we fall together on the sheets, enjoying the post orgasmic bliss together.
“I’m not afraid of this anymore,” Garrett tells me softly as he hugs me tight. “I have always been scared of things going wrong because of the past, but I’m not anymore.”
“Me neither.” Now that is a sentence I never thought I’d say. “It was all just a series of horrible accidents, and coincidences.”
He kisses the tip of my nose, causing me to smile. “Never. And while we both might have pushed one another away in the past, it isn’t going to happen again. We are a team now. You and me against the world. No more lashing out for me, no more running away for you. How does that sound?”
“Perfect.” God, I don’t even want to run. I don’t want to be anywhere but here. “Me and you against the world.”
As we hold on to one another and slowly drift off to sleep, I start to imagine the future that Garrett and I have always been destined to have. It might not be happening in the right order, I always thought that the wedding would come before the baby, but we haven’t exactly done anything in the traditional right way up until now, so why change that?
I really think that if Sadie could see us now, she would be happy. My father too. Admittedly, it would be a million times better if they were both just here, but life doesn’t always give you what you want… it has, however, given me what I need and that is a strength I didn’t know that I had. The strength I need to raise a baby and start a family. I never had that in my life without my mom, and I can’t wait to create better memories for our little one.
All this has also let me know that no one else will ever compare, because no one is quite like Garrett. I tried living without him and it didn’t work. We know that we are meant to be together forever. Me and Garrett Willis against the world, I can’t imagine anyone that I would rather fight with.
Chapter 28 – Garrett
Months Later – 2019
My hand doesn’t leave Jill’s the entire time. The moment that we are in the doctor’s office, I’m clinging on to her like there’s no tomorrow. But not because I’m anxious or worried about what could go wrong, but because I’m so damn excited that my heart might explode. I have been waiting for this day forever and now we’re here.
“This might be a little cold,” the doctor warns Jill as she spreads some blue gel across her stomach. I swear I feel the cold hitting my belly as my girlfriend jumps. “Sorry.”
Then the magical moment of our baby on the little screen distracts all of us. The heartbeat comes first, the steady thump and wush of that little life inside Jill. Next, a fuzzy black and white image floats onto the screen and slight movement from his or her little arms and I am a goner. Tears roll down my face as I realize that this is really happening. How is Jill keeping it together right now? This is the craziest thing I have ever seen. I’m in love and I don’t even know this baby yet.
“Now, are we finding out the gender today? Everything looks perfect.”
I squeeze Jill’s hand. Both of us have been nervous about things going wrong and understandably so, but every day we are being proven wrong.
Jill insists happily. “We have talked about it a lot and we want to know…”
We have gone back and forth a lot over the last few months, but we can’t resist finding out. We don’t mind either way, as long as we have a happy and healthy child, but we want to know.
“Okay then, you are having…A baby girl.”
A girl. Oh my God. My heart skips about ten beats. We are having a baby girl. I lock eyes with Jill. I can see the exact same thought plastered all over her face. We couldn’t be happier.
