I look down to his lips “Its fine if co parenting is your choice”I said.“ Why do you think co parenting is my choice? I asked“Because you dislike me for what I did to you in the past and I can’t tell you not to hate me for this.”I said.“ I don’t hate you, I just feel so hurt” I said.“ So do you want to marry me? I asked.I really meant my question. The trust I was placing in her, the confidence I had in her to carry this through. Couldn’t she see that?I want to add her as my next of kin and make her my confidant.She laughed in a dry, hollow sort of way. “You’re joking, right?”“I mean it. For this to work, I need someone I completely trust. Someone who wouldn’t get nervous, or abuse the position they’re going to be in. As my legal spouse, you’d have more than a little control over my life if you wanted it.”“What? So I could divorce you and take half your money if you pissed me off?”“Yep,” I said, nodding. After all, it was true.Chloe looked at me.“I don’t believe you?” she sa
“ Nothing” he says and didn’t leave my hand, I didn’t struggle as well” He pulls up somewhere not far from the dock. The Toto was beautiful. Gleaming white, it hovered in the water as Alex led me along the jetty. It was a narrow, long craft with a pointed bow and a riotously red racing stripe across its side. He open his palm for me to “What is it?” he said. But his grumpy tone just made me laugh even more. “Toto?” I said, incredulously. “As in, the little dog from the Wizard of Oz.” “I didn’t pick the name,” he said. “Besides,” he added quickly, “it’s bad luck to change the name of a ship. Don’t you know that?” “Aye aye captain,” I replied cheerily, and felt more than a little pride when I heard Alex growl under his breath. I loved teasing him. It had become my way of showing affection towards him. “Come on,” he said. “I thought I’d take you for a spin today.” He reached out a hand, and I took it and stepped down into the hull of the boat. Inside it was more comfortable than I
“NOT SO FAST,” replied Riley. “70 MILES AN HOUR? I CAN GO FASTER IF YOU LIKE?”“NO!” I said. “THIS IS FINE!”As we passed under Brooklyn Bridge and came up by midtown, I felt the boat slowing, and eventually, I saw the prow of the boat bend down as we came level with the water. Completely unfazed by the incredible speed at which we’d been traveling, Riley steered the boat into the harbor, towards a jetty on Manhattan’s side of the East River.Once we’d come to a stop by the jetty, he pulled up a rope by the deck, and looped it into a lasso. He lobbed the knot over the side of the boat, and I watched, amazed by the accuracy of his throw, as the rope landed over one of the capstans on the jetty and Riley pulled it tight. And once again, I savored the view, the curves of his muscular arms and strong shoulders, and felt an amazing sense of triumph at having been carried across land and sea by Lowe.***The car felt still and peaceful after the incredible time on the speedboat. He drove u
We all went in, I told them to go and shower then they can come downstairs for lunch.They return downstairs after few minutes then we all sat at the table to eat as we eat, we kept stealing glances at each other.RILEY.I stare at my beautiful family then I thought of doing something, I brought out my cellphone, I took selfie of us eating then I send it to my grandmom with a text added to it.“ Your grandkids and their mom, we are working towards getting married” I sent it to my grandma then I heard my Harry says to me.“ bad habit” I look towards them.“ Yeah, you don’t press your phone while eating” He says.“ Okay Champs”I said and drop my cellphone.my Cellphone beeped and I was going to pick it.“ Dad, we just told you what bad habit is” Harry says.“Okay Champs and I already noted that” I said.We finished eating then the maid came to clear the table. I pick my cellphone and there were already tons of messages from Grandmom.Is she a single mom?Are you planning to marry a sing
When I started working for him , he never walks far away from me. I am sure he is cheating on me.Did I just say he is cheating on me? He isn’t my husband.Not long the car stopped. He got down, he help me out then the kidsWe got to the restaurant. I recognized it immediately from something I’d seen on TV once. It was one of those super-fancy places with Michelin stars and tiny plates of food. I’d seen them before.“You ever go to Panera Bread?” I asked Riley, as we were seated at one of the tables, and the menus, heavy and dark with black leather cases, were slipped onto our laps.Riley laughed. I loved it when he laughed and the sound was warm and rich. We’d been seated in a private room in the restaurant.“That’s a good one,” he said. “I don’t think I’ve been for about ten years.”“You know,” I whispered conspiratorially, “the food probably isn’t as good as here, but the bill’s about a hundred times smaller.”“I get that,” said Rley. “But money doesn’t really matter to me. Even if
AMANDA.I stood in my room pacing around thinking of what I can do to make him mine, I realized the plan suing plan didn’t even bulge him, I was in thought when my cellphone Vibrated.It was a message from my friend. I opened the message and it was a picture of Riley, then I look deeply into the face of the person he was kissing the back of her palm it , it was Chloe and there were kids that look exactly like Riley.I quickly dialed my friend’s line to confirm.CHLOE.I wasn’t expecting anything after reading the message I just felt happy then he push back his chair and stood up, e came and stand in front of me, he dropped down on one knee and brings out the engagement ring.My eyes opened widely, I wasn’t expecting any of this.“ I know I haven’t been the best of men to come into your life but I want us, I want a forever with us, I need us to raise our kids together, have more kids together, I want a life partner and you are that woman.“Please say yes” he said.My tears were drippin
I undress myself and imagine it was Riley pulIing down my gown and kissing me, I went to the shower and went to bed.I kept tossing around , I couldn’t sleep very well , I couldn’t get over our kisses, I raise my finger and stare at the diamond ring on my finger. I never thought I would be wearing a diamond ring not just anyone’s diamond ring, Riley’s Diamond ring on my finger.It took me a wile before I drifted to sleep.RILEY.I undress and went to bed, I lay in the bed imagining her undressing me and straddling me. I sit up in the bed then I walk out of my room, I walk to my office and started writing down my vow.I can wait to read the vow I just wrote down to her.I loved her so much. I began to draft down all the things I want to do for my future wife.I return to my bedroom and I didn’t know when I drifted into sleep.The following day.In the morning, I got a call from my grandparents so early that they are on their way to my place.I rush out of the bedroom, I climbed down t
