“So,” she says, folding her arms over her chest. “You’re the husband.”
I don’t know what to say because my eyes are on her bulging biceps. “Um,” I stutter right when I see Sabrina in the background walking toward the door. She puts her small dainty hand on her bicep and laughs. “Relax there, Zena.” She pushes in front of her when ‘Zena’ puts her hand on her shoulder and tucks her in front of her, one arm going around her neck.
“Noah,” Sabrina says, smiling. “You haven’t changed a bit. Come on in. Your friend just got here,” she says, turning and pushing Zena away.
“I see you met my partner, Ruthie,” she says to us both. “Her bark is worse than her bite.” I smile and look back up and can kind of guarantee that her bite might take chunk out of me.
“Hi,” Kaleigh says from beside me. “I’m Kaleigh, the baby momma.” She reaches her hand out to shake Sabrina’s hand and Ruthie’s. It’s in that moment two boys run into the room, both of them running around their mothers.
“Mom,” one says.
“Momma,” the other one says while chasing each other. “Bryan hit me.”
While the other one says, “Dominic hit me first.”
“You two, we have company,” Ruthie says, stopping them both. “Now behave or I might have to put the smack down on you.”
I look at her, then Sabrina and then the boys laugh out loud.
“Yeah right, Momma, we would just tickle you till you yelled mercy.”
“Go watch a movie while Mom and I sign a couple of papers.” She ushers them down the hall to wherever they watch television.
“Come on. I had him set up in the kitchen if that is okay,” Sabrina says, walking down another tiny hallway. Till we make it back to the kitchen, which is no bigger than my walk-in closet. Will, who is going to be our witness, gets up, coming over to me.
“Hey, man, how you doing? Long time no see.”
I shake his hand, nodding. “Shall we get to it?” I say, eager to have these papers signed.
Once Will sits down, I pull out the papers for him to look over. I had forwarded a copy to Sabrina the day after we spoke. She takes her copy and reads just to make sure nothing is changed and grabs the pen from Will and signs on the dotted line. I almost sigh in relief, but till I sign and Will signs, this thing is still legal. When she finishes, she hands me the pen and I hurriedly sign my name, handing the pen to Will.
Once he finishes I throw my hand in the air and yell, “Mazel Tov.”
Which earns me a glare from Ruthie, a smile from Sabrina, a shake of the head from Will, and a kiss from my girl.
We leave soon after, holding hands, swinging them as we walk. “I have a surprise for tonight,” I tell her, watching her eyes light up.
“Do you now?” She smiles. “Is it your dick in a box, because I gotta say I already got that surprise. In fact, twice today.” She puts up her hand with two fingers. It would have been three if I had enough time to recover after she rode me this morning at breakfast.
“No, but it’s a great idea for next time,” I tell her as she rolls her eyes.
“What should I wear?” she asks me. “I don’t think I packed anything fancy.”
I throw my hand up to flag down a cab, opening the door and watching her climb in. “I have that all taken care of. All you have to do is sit down and be pampered.”
“Really?”
I look at my watch. Right on time. “When we get back to the hotel, there will be two women there waiting for us.”
“A threesome? Really, that’s my surprise? And why two girls and not two guys?” She angrily hits my leg.
“Um, two women who will be massaging you and then doing your hair and makeup. But let’s discuss this threesome, would you?”
She folds her arms over her chest. “Would you watch me fuck another guy?”
“Fuck no.” I don’t even take a second to think about it.
“Then I guess that answers your threesome question,” she says.
“All I want for you today is for you to relax and be pampered. And be ready at ten.”
“At ten?” She gasps out. “I’m going to have to take a nap before we go out.”
“Already planned that,” I say, knowing full well she would be half asleep by the time we walked out of the hotel room.
When we walk in the hotel room, the massage table is already set up, as well as the candles and roses. “Aww,” she says, walking in. “Isn’t this romantic.” She leans up and kisses me. “So getting laid tonight.”
I pull my eyebrows together and laugh, like that wasn’t a given.
