I'm His Lover CHAPTER 15: CLICHE
Maya's enthusiastic hair brushing occasionally made me stumble over my words as she attempted to tackle the tangles in my hair. She responded with a simple, "Beauty is a pain, girl." "I'm not even sure if I want to be pretty," I admit. Maya pauses her brushing, and I silently thank her for doing so. She swivels my chair around to face her. "Honey, you're already very pretty. This just enhances it." "Do you have to 'enhance' so much? My head is starting to hurt." I'm pretty sure I don't have any hair left at this point. "Relax. Just a few more strokes, and I'll curl it," she reassures me, spinning me around to continue. Once she finishes curling my hair, she studies my face. "Alright, you won't need as much makeup as you thought, but I do think a bit of concealer might help. Did you get any sleep at all last night?" she inquires. "Yeah, I got some, but not much," I reply, eyeing my now strangely curled hair. "What happened?" Uh-oh, this is a part I'm not great at. When someone a

When a slow song starts playing, we part ways. "Want to dance?" Mark suggests as we catch our breath. "Sure," I agree, and we make our way to the dance floor. It's like a scene from that movie "A Cinderella Story," where Austin told Mark they should meet under the disco ball. What a coincidence. Austin's appearance reminds me of Tristan from the early episodes of Gilmore Girls, but then my thoughts wander to Lauren Graham, and from there, I somehow end up thinking about the movie Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life, which had a cute dog named Calvin. That, in turn, triggers memories of my old dog, Pat, who was just like that. I snap out of my thoughts before the song ends, realizing that Mark and I are closer than ever. When the music stops, we decide to take a break and chat with other people. Mark heads off to find Charlie, and I seek out someone I can tolerate, at least for a little while. I wander around aimlessly until Max approaches me. "Heey, boo boo," he slurs, clearl

Five weeks remain until the wedding. "Hello, it's wonderful to finally meet you," I greet Abby warmly. "I've heard a lot about you from Charlie, who also knows you," Abby replies, shaking my hand. "In that case, let me guide you through the process," I suggest, leading them inside. "For the rest of my life, I'll have to thank your father every day," Charlie remarks, instructing us to gather all the bags. … Four weeks until the wedding. "I love this one. Red velvet Oreo cheesecake," Mark says, savoring another bite. I try a forkful. "This is the one we'll go with," I inform the person serving us. "It looks like we've found our cake!" Mark exclaims, rubbing his lips together and clapping his hands. "I suppose so," I reply with a smile. … Three weeks until the wedding. "I've scheduled your hair and makeup appointment," Maya tells me, ushering me into my room. "Why can't you do it?" I inquire. "Because I have an appointment too," she explains and playfully flops onto my bed.

Day before the wedding: "Why do I have to go for a manicure today?" I inquire as Maya ushers me into the car. "Because your hands need to look their best for the photos," she explains, sliding into the driver's seat. In one car, Abby, Maya, Sophie, and I are squeezed together, while in another, my mom, Hannah, and Kelly, Mark's cousin, are riding. "But what if I don't care about looking good?" I whine as I slump down into my seat. "Nope, no exceptions. And sit up, we can't have you getting into a car accident the day before your wedding," Maya insists as she pulls out of the driveway. "You'd be the one to kill me, you're the one driving," I quip, sitting up. "Quit it. You know what I mean. Plus, you might end up liking it," Maya says with a hint of optimism. I didn't like it at all. It felt strange. She massaged my hands and performed all sorts of nail procedures that were slightly uncomfortable. Then came the acrylic nails, followed by the painting, whatever a 'French tip' is.

The Wedding "Are you feeling nervous?" My dad inquires as the music begins playing, and Hannah descends the stairs, scattering flower petals. "Is it really that obvious?" I respond, anticipating the young boy who will carry the rings. "Just a tad, I suppose," he admits. Jackson, Mark's best man, and Charlie then guide their dates to their seats. "Thanks, Dad, for stating the obvious." Maya and Levi, Mark's best man, follow. "I just answered your question," he quips, offering a shrug. Kelly, Mark's cousin, is next, accompanied by another groomsman, Brandon. "Please spare me the smart-aleck remarks, Dad." Sophie and Mason are next. "You look stunning, and I have no doubt you'll achieve all your dreams. I love you," my dad says. The wedding march begins to play, and before I can think of anything else, my father is leading me down the aisle. "Don't let me trip," I whisper softly, meant only for my dad's ears. He chuckles softly. As I approach the climax of this journey, I notice

"Now, I'd like to invite the newlyweds to join us on the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife," announces the MC over the microphone. "Wise men say only fools rush in," I whisper to Mark as the music begins. "But I can't help falling in love with you," he responds with a smile. "Did you choose this song?" I inquire. "Elvis is also one of my favorites," he confesses. We continue to dance and smile as the song plays. A few dances later... "Now, I'd like to invite the bride and her dad for the father-daughter dance," the MC announces. "You're not going to start crying because of this, are you?" I tease my dad, knowing how emotional this song always makes him. "No," he sniffs. "I'll be okay." "Are you sure? Because the part that always gets you is coming up," I jest, trying to lighten the mood. "Yes, I'm sure," he says, holding back his tears. But he can't hold back, and he breaks down, but it's all right because the song shifts, and it's about all dads and daug
Last Updated : 2023-03-06I'm His Lover CHAPTER 21: PRE-HONEYMOON
Four hours into the seemingly endless 8-hour flight, I stirred from my slumber, and to my surprise, Mark was still peacefully asleep beside me. I took advantage of this quiet moment to catch up on what had been transpiring in the world for the past three days. For some inexplicable reason, I had deliberately avoided all forms of social media during that time. As I unlocked my phone, I discovered that I was tagged in a new I*******m post by the wedding photographer. She had posted a selection of our wedding photos, capturing moments like the big reveal and one with the entire crew, where we were all caught in fits of laughter. Scrolling down further, I came across another tagged photo, this time from Abby. It was a selfie we had snapped at the reception, and I couldn't help but smile as I remembered the fun we had. Abby was truly a wonderful person, and I hoped to maintain our friendship. To my surprise, I realized that I had several more tagged posts waiting for my attention. Mark's

MARK I nudged Alyanna gently, my excitement for the day bubbling over. "Wake up! Wake up!" I exclaimed, eager to kickstart the official beginning of our honeymoon. Alyanna groaned and muttered, "5 more minutes." I couldn't let her linger in slumber any longer. I pulled the covers back, revealing that she was soaked in sweat, her brow furrowed with discomfort. "Come on, it's time to rise and shine," I insisted, my voice brimming with anticipation. She finally relented, sitting up and yawning. "Fine, I'm up," she conceded, heading to the bathroom to change. "So, what's on the agenda today?" she inquired from the bathroom. My mind, however, wasn't on our plans for the day. I couldn't help but wonder why she was sweating so profusely. My concern lingered as she returned from the bathroom, giving me a quizzical look. I snapped back to the present. "Oh, uh, surfing," I replied, still puzzled by her condition. "Cool. I'll just grab my swimsuit, we'll get breakfast, and then head to the

I'm His Lover CHAPTER 65: NOT THE END
"Mommy!" I hear yelling as well as loud running footsteps. Kara, Kyle and Willow come running into the kitchen. "Can you finish the story?""Not yet, we gotta wait for daddy and Milly." I dry my hands and lean down to pick up Willow. "Where's Landon?" I ask to go into the living room. I sigh when I see him sitting in front of the TV playing video games. Just like he's been doing with every minute of free time he gets."Come on, go outside and run around, get dirty." I put Willow down next to Landon."But this level is really hard and I can't-" I cut him off by turning off the TV and giving him a no arguing look. "Fine, I'll go outside.""Be a good brother and take your sister to the swing set." I say handing him Willow."Really? It's bad enough I can't finish my game." I put my hands on my hips. "You know what? I have a sudden urge to push my little sister on the swing." He says picking up Willow and walking to the front door."Smart." I call out with a chuckle.Kyle and Kara follow t
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 64: REAL PROPOSAL
"At this same time in 2018, on July 18th, we exchanged our vows and became husband and wife." I'm saying that while Mark is cooking, I should be strolling around the island in our brand-new kitchen and bugging him."I am familiar with the functioning of the calendar." Mark is using his smart mouth in an attempt to convince me to take a seat."Yeah, but today marks our anniversary of being together for a year." I would recommend coming to a complete halt right next to him and displaying him some images from the wedding.I want to reiterate that I am familiar with the operation of the calendar. This time, however, he lets out a chuckle. "OK, go ahead and have a seat. After supper, I'd want to take you somewhere special." Mark tells me that he is putting a plate in the seat next to mine.I get up and make my way over there before sitting down. "Oh, I'm so excited to find out where you've planned our anniversary celebration!" I smirk."This comes as a complete shock to me." He appears to
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 63: NEW HOME
My birthday is on the first of June, which means that it is only a day away at this point. My hair has now grown out to be almost one inch long. Although there isn't enough to show just yet, it's still there. Mark and I have become even more close recently, and in light of this, we have increased the number of dates we go on that take place outside of the venues we previously attended.We packed a lunch and had a picnic at the highest point of our hike. We went to a community pool with Abby and Charlie, where they gave Lexi her first swim lesson when she was six months old. It was adorable to see how she reacted when she got into the water. We've had a lot of quality time together, both with just the two of us and with our respective friends and families.I've already told Mark that I don't want a party, so instead we're just going to go on a short bike ride around the area and eat lunch somewhere along the way. I instructed him not to get me anything, but he insisted on getting me at
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 62: FORTUNE TELLER
"Ooh look a fortune teller." I can't help but crack a grin as I take a seat with the stuffed elephant I'm holding in my arms.It is not necessary for us to get our horoscopes read at this time. While he is saying this to me and attempting to drag me away from him, he grabs my hand."Yeah, we are now seated." I issue this command. He acquiesces with a rolled eye expression and does what he is told."Get your fortune told for just five dollars," the ad read. The fortune teller cracks a wry smile as she circles her hands around the crystal ball in her possession. Mark removes a five dollar bill from his pocket and places it in the container that she is using. "Each." The female contributor continues. Mark makes an expression of rolling his eyes before adding another five. "Well, right...," the speaker said."There's a chance that we shouldn't even go in there." Turning around is something that Mark objects to."Nope! We didn't drive all the way here simply to turn around and head back ho
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 61: DECISIONS
"I've made up my mind about what course of action I want to take." When it's time to clean up after supper, Sophie is the one who makes the announcement.The question then was, "And what is that?" I put the plate I'm washing down and turn my attention to her, asking her to pay attention to me instead."I am aware that winter is in full swing, but despite this, I have the urge to participate in some sort of carnival." She withdraws her presence gradually. "I am aware that it is somewhat childish, but I would really like to do it before I become a teenager.""It does not have an infantile quality. I have a feeling that we are going to have a lot of laughs." I'm heading towards the desk where my computer is located right now. I'll investigate whether there are any indoor carnivals in our area. This is what I am saying while I type."Really?" She asks with a grin as she makes her way over to me to keep an eye on what I'm looking for."Absolutely, we're looking forward to the fun. We are a
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 60: A DREAM
"Mark?" I stammer out while turning my head to look at him."Alyanna, you have to make sure that you get enough rest. It is currently two o'clock in the morning." Mark utters these words while setting his book down to the side."I just can't shut my brain off. It is imperative that I convey the following information to you." I say blinking slowly.The question is, "What is it?" He requests that you move in a little bit closer."I had a dream about Maya being in this place," the narrator said. When I make an effort to swallow, however, it causes more discomfort than it solves. It had been ten years since I had from high school, and my wife and I were taking our four children with us to attend the reunion. I smile."Really? Were Milly and Landon two of the names that you were considering?" He inquires while straining his eyes slightly to the sides."Yeah, and the other two were a set of twins by the names of Kara and Kyle," she replied. I pause for a moment before asking, "Are you fond
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 59: GOODBYE
I am roused from my sleep by the soundtrack of a motion picture. I've only made it through one round, but I'm already so exhausted that I can hardly move. Mark has started playing Sweet Home Alabama, and I believe it is approximately halfway through at this point. I turn my head to look at the man I love, who is hiding his identity behind a mask so that he can be here with me.Because he turns to face me and smiles when he sees me looking at him, I believe that he is aware that I am staring at him. At the very least, I believe he's putting on a happy face. "Hi love." While he is doing so, he says while leaning closer to me.I smile. When you speak in that manner, you have a decidedly British accent. I stutter out the phrase.I can make out in the corner of his eye a slight crinkle, which is a clear indication that he's smiling. "Do you like it?" He questions it while cocking his head to the side. I nod. "Then I'll keep doing it love," she replied. He appears to be smiling once more fr
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 58: ANSWER
"Explain it to me in detail," I requested. I think to myself as I roll over onto my stomach and hold myself up on my elbows."It had been six or seven years since Thanksgiving when it finally arrived..." It all begins with him."It all makes perfect sense that your car accident had place the day before Thanksgiving." I said nodding along."Anyways. As soon as I went in the door, you walked over to me and introduced yourself. Your hair was about shoulder length. After some time had passed, Charlie and his two young companions entered the room. One was given the name Alexis, and the other was given the name Milly." When her name was mentioned, a big smile spread across my face. She was my grandmother. How does this real-life situation relate to this dream?"Was it the reason you mentioned that you loved the names Milly and Landon?" I inquire while drawing in a bit closer to him in order to get a better look at the emotion that is currently on his face.A very small nod is all that is gi
I'm His Lover CHAPTER 57: LEXI
Sleeping is the last thing I want to be doing right now, but I just can't muster the energy to do anything else because I was up all night last night. We were forced to delay our arrival at the hospital, but this is not a significant issue because nothing will take place until the afternoon of tomorrow. We ended up staying longer.After we got back to the house, we changed into our pajamas and went to bed immediately. Well, I did, and then Mark put on a movie and lied down on his back while I lied on his chest while he watched it. I haven't been able to get around to doing that just yet. I think that a regular drum beat or even the sound of a heartbeat can be soothing when one is trying to fall or stay asleep. I am all for it. When he turns off the light and the television, that's when I open my eyes. Also, when he turns off the TV, I open my eyes. I inquire as to whether or not he requires my presence to be elsewhere. According to everything I've read and seen on the subject, your ar
