“And why not?”
“Because we’ll be on a plane to Spain,”
Elise pushes me away just as I go to bury my head between her now naked thighs.
“What?” She looks at me with her eyes open wide.
“Izzy finishes school next week. I think, given what she’s been through, they’ll let her out early. We can travel to Spain and check up on my mamá, then travel around Europe a little bit. Get away from everything. You always promised Izzy you’d show her the world. I’m going to come with you.” I suddenly get nervous. Have I done something wrong? Have I pushed Elise into a decision she wasn’t ready to make? Fuck, I’m an idiot. She’s taken her life back, and I’m already pushing her into things. “If you don’t want to go, we don’t have to. I’ve not booked anything. It’s fine,” I quickly add.
Elise’s mouth breaks out into a big smile.
“No, I love the idea. I can’t wait to show her everything. It’ll be amazing. And you can propose to me at the top of the Eiffel tower,” she adds with a teasing look at me. I growl with frustration. “Ten year old’s are appalling at keeping secrets, Leo. You’ll soon learn that.”
“Maybe I will propose then, and maybe I won’t. You’ll have to wait for me to surprise you.” I wink at her.
“I can’t wait.” Elise lays back as I spread her legs wide and lower my mouth to her sensitive folds. Parting them with my fingers, I lick the length of her sex and delve my tongue inside her warmth. “I’ll say yes, you know.”
“I’ve no doubt about that.”
My tongue flicks over her clit and within seconds, she’s coming, her essence bathing me in her pleasure. I lap up every single last drop like a man dehydrated. I push myself up off the bed and remove my jeans, letting my already hard cock bob free. He’s ready to find his way home for the night. I lay over Elise again and position myself at her entrance. She’s willing and ready for me, and I say a little prayer, thanking God for getting me back to her before Simon was able to ruin this for her.
“Leo, before we do this, I need to tell you something.”
I raise myself up on my arms, so I’m looking down at her.
“Before we do this?…Do you mean the sex or the marriage?”
“Both I guess.”
I don’t move, despite my dick begging me to thrust forward. I need to hear what Elise is going to stay first.
“What’s wrong, Elise?”
She bites her lip with nerves,
“When I was at the doctor’s getting examined after what Simon did to me, they found something in my blood tests.”
All manner of worrying thoughts start to flood through my head—cancer being the predominant one.
“Tests?”
“Yes.” she says, nibbling some more on her lip.
My dick starts to deflate. I’m terrified.
“It seems we’ve had a little accident.”
“Accident?” I’ve never wanted someone to spit an explanation out so quickly, but time is seeming to stand still.
“I’m pregnant.”
“Pregnant?”
My dick goes from soft to hard enough to hammer nails in, in less than two seconds. Elise, the woman I’ve loved almost since the moment she was born is carrying my child.
“Yes, it’s only a couple weeks, of course, so anything could happen, but I’m pregnant.”
I crush my lips to hers and push inside her all at the same time.
“That wasn’t an accident. It’s fate and bliss all rolled up into one. A second child in our family—a brother or sister for Izzy. I love you.”
“I love you too.” Elise bursts into tears as we make love, never taking our eyes off each other until the early hours of the morning.
THE END.
