It’s currently seven, Kylie and I are getting ready. She picked out the most revealing and uncomfortable outfit I have ever laid eyes on for myself. The gelato was delicious, my mouth is watering just thinking about it. I sit down in the chair and do some basic makeup, trying to avoid eyeshadow. “Kisses, you need some purple eyeshadow to match the heels” There goes that. I quickly do a beautiful eyeshadow look with some purples, shimmers and neutral colors, slapping on some false lashes and a perfect wing. Once my makeup is done I let Kylie finish curling my hair. They’re tight for now but once they cool off and I change we’re going to brush them out, giving it a beachy look. I slip into the skintight black dress, struggling to breathe. I quickly put some rings and bracelets on as Kylie finishes getting ready and try the heels on. They’re high. “Oh my gosh. You’re going to have all the guys drooling” She looks me up and down, her hair almost curled. “Oh shush up” I shake my he
The rest of the night goes on with no interruptions. We have a blast and soon we are heading back to the house. I help Brooks bring Kylie into the house, making sure she stays on her feet. This girl is going to be a train wreck when she goes to college. “I’ll meet you in our room. I’m going to take a shower” Daniel kisses my cheek. I silently go downstairs, grabbing two bottles of water from the fridge. One for me, one for Daniel. I take a sip, closing the door behind me. I pop my medicine in my mouth, quickly swallowing it and proceeding to take off my makeup. I tie my hair into a high ponytail and slip out of the dress and shoes into a sports bra and pair of sweatpants. I grab some white Nike high socks and get under the covers, waiting for Daniel to get out of the shower so I can brush my teeth and wash my face. A couple minutes later he walks out of our bathroom, a towel around his waist and water dripping down his forehead. “Ooh” I jump up and run into the bathroom, having
We pull up to this beautiful island. There isn’t a boat in sight for miles. The shore is barely visible. ‘Kisses, welcome” Daniel smiles as we step off the boat, onto the sand. The water surrounding the island is even more clear. “Come on, lets go” Kylie smiles, dragging my hand. We walk for a little until we come to these beautiful pools, they look almost like hot springs. “This is my favorite part of this trip” Brooks smiles. “Kisses, welcome to Italy’s most beautiful, in our opinions, hot springs” Daniel dramatically says. “Wow” I breathe out. The water is a beautiful turquoise color. I can see the steam escaping the water as it flows down the rocks. There is a small house like structure at the top, someone must have lived here before. “Get in” Kylie motions for me to join them. The water feels nice against my sore muscles. I instantly relax, dunking my head under the water so it’s not as frizzy. We spend hours on the island, burying each other in the sand, jumping in and o
I woke up, legs tangled and chest feeling heavy. I look down to see Daniel’s head resting against my chest. He looks so peaceful, I don’t want to wake him. “Good morning my love” He smiles, his eyes still closed. “I’m sorry, did I wake you?” I whisper, guilt consuming me. “No, I’ve been up for around a half hour already” He laughs, kissing my cheek. “Just wanted an excuse to lay on your boobs” He winks, stretching. I haven’t even been up for five minutes and he’s already thrown out an inappropriate comment. “What are we doing today?” I yawn, getting out of bed and straightening my clothes out. “Not sure if anything is planned, honestly” He ruffles his hair, joining me to brush my teeth. I quickly brush them, also washing my face in the process, moving so Daniel can do the same. “Oh, okay. Maybe if nothing is planned we can go explore the city a little? I know you probably know it front and back but I’m obviously clueless and very intrigued” I laugh, picking out some clothes t
We arrive at a small walkway, telling me that this area isn’t very known to the public. “Dan, where are we going?” I question, ducking under a tree branch. “Here, walk next to me” He places his hand on the small of my back, guiding me on where to go. We come across a small tree house, just above a pretty large lake. “Woah, you made this?” I look up at it. “When I was little, my dad bought this property and we built this tree house. I’ve continued to keep it in almost perfect condition. Let’s go up” He smiles a boyish smile. I nod and climb up the ladder, slowing getting up. Once I do, I look around, amazed. It looked a lot smaller down there. “It’s cool right? I come here whenever I’m upset or I need to clear my head. It’s the perfect thinking spot. And over there, at sunset it gives you the most beautiful view” He points to an opening in the trees. “I assume sunrise is beautiful too, I’ve never gotten up early enough to witness it” He chuckles. “It’s amazing. I wish I had som
“Babe, I’m taking you out tonight. Dress nice and be ready by eight” Daniel winks, walking out of the room. “You have to wear the skirt outfit” Kylie gushes. “Obviously. What time is it? I need to start getting ready” I start to get really nervous. “It’s 5:30. You have some time” Kylie tries to calm me. “Kiss, you have nothing to worry about. Calm down hun, you guys have been together for a while” She chuckles, noticing my bouncing leg. “I know, but I’m nervous. We haven’t been on too many dates like this” I fidget with my bracelet, keeping my fingers busy. “Come on, lets get ready so you keep busy” She laughs, shaking her head. I sit down and she gets started on my hair. She curls it into beautiful waves, giving it some volume. I do my makeup, keeping a nude lip and applying my normal routine. I then apply some light brown eyeshadow on the crease and blend it down, patting on some pale pink shadow and blend it together. I put a shimmer shade of pink towards my inner eye and blend
Today was our last day in Italy. We went back to the island and out to get gelato. Tomorrow, we’re boarding the jet around noon, since Jim has a business meeting he has to take care of. “So, did you love it?” Daniel snuggles against me, interrupting my thoughts. “I can’t express how much I loved it Dan. Thank you, really” I smile, kissing the top of his head. “I’m so happy to hear that” He sighs, relieved. His cold hand rests against my bare stomach, causing me to flinch. “Sorry” He chuckles. “Get some sleep. I want to do something before we leave tomorrow” Daniel kisses my jaw. “Okay, goodnight Dan” I close my eyes and drift off. I wake up in an empty bed, hearing shushed rustling around me. “Good morning sunshine” Daniel sings, quietly, throwing some of his clothes into his luggage. I smile. “Good morning” I stretch, not noticing his lack of clothing until now. “Put some clothes on” I laugh, getting up and walking into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. “You lov
Last night Andrew came over and we all had a self care night. We watched movies, did face masks and ate way too many snacks. I told them everything that happened, and explained my text to Cody. It was great. Today, I’m going to the gym to start out the day and then going to work. I needed to pick up a last minute shift today. When I get to the gym, I start out with a mile run and then move onto machines. I concentrate on my legs, needing to build the riding muscles back up. The gym goes fast. I quickly shower and change into my uniform, running off to my car after shooting the workers a goodbye. “Kisses, glad to have you back “Sydney nods, smiling when I walk in. “I wish I could say the same but I’m gonna be honest, Italy is a lot nicer than Santa Rosa” I laugh. “Fair enough. Well, we missed you. Your regulars were asking for you. They’ll be happy to see you back” She smiles, walking into her office. Christine walks in shortly after, a smile appearing when she recognizes me. “Y
I have been Daniel Green for 7 years now. After our honeymoon we found out I was pregnant again and this time we had a little girl Christine Diane Green. was my beautiful little girl. Funny enough a couple weeks after I found out I was pregnant with Christine, Kylie found out she was pregnant as well with a little girl, Valerie Mckenzie Gomez . Samantha and Luke had decided that they were gonna wait a little while to have another kid. Christine and Kurt also had another boy Lawrence James Whitlock . Rain had also found himself a girl and following in his brother’s footsteps is engaged young at twenty two. Tita Silvia and Uncle Liam are very happy and are spoiling their grandkids rotten. I knocked on my son’s room . “Damien can I come in?” “Yeah mom” Damien was the definitely a mommy’s boy and he shared the same love as sports as his parents, his room was just that with beds on either side, a small basket court in between and a climbing rope to go up on the top of his bed. “You need
One month after the weeding I drew in a long, slow breath to calm my nervous excitement as I lit the candle atop the chocolate cupcake I had secretly bought. I had made arrangements for it to be delivered while we were out sightseeing. Never in my wildest dreams had I ever imagined I would be in Maldives, let alone be enjoying my honeymoon there. Daniel and I had said our vows on the beach just days ago, surrounded by our friends. Now, we were alone, just him and I to start our new life as husband and wife. He was my husband. Just the thought sent butterflies into flight in my stomach. We were married. He was mine forever. I closed my eyes as his vows whispered into my ears in his delicious British accent. He had stared at me with those gorgeous green eyes and declared his never-ending love for me. Somehow, I had managed to stay standing while I melted inside. I had opted out of a big wedding dress. Instead, I wore a knee-length white dress. It was sleeveless and cinched at the w
Today's the day I marry again my love. It's been just over two years since I surprised Daniel with being pregnant with our second child and we decided to wait until after the baby was born to get married so I could could lose the baby weight. Daniel and I had the same as the others, a little boy. Alexander Damien Green was born the middle child to his cousin Jhon Edward Green and best friend Damon Lyndon Jackson, all boys were born a week apart. Our wedding is taking place outside a beautiful old barn and after the reception will be inside the barn. Kylie was my maid of honor and I had Grace, Samantha, Christine and Sydney as my bridesmaids. Daniel had Brooks as his best man and Luke, Kurt, Rain and Andrew as his groomsmen. The girls were all in long navy blue dresses with lace on the neckline and the boys were in grey suits with a white shirt and navy blue tie. Daniel would be in a black suit and navy tie and the little boys would be in white button downs with suspenders while Athena
A year has passed by as I forged forward with a life I had once only dreamt about with Daniel. I came home from working at the hospital on a random weekday and opened the house door. I stepped inside and immediately noticed how eerily quiet the house was. "Daniel?" I called out as I took a step forward. He was supposed to be off today. My stomach dropped as I wondered if he had been called in. "Daniel?" I took another step forward when something crunched beneath my foot. I lowered my eyes to the floor and looked quizzically at the rose beneath my shoe. I slowly bent down and picked it up. I inspected the red rose in my hand, wondering what on earth it was doing there, as my eyes gazed across the floor of the condo. My breath caught as my heart beat rapidly as I stared at the trail of red roses laid out before me. I trembled with an excited anticipation as I began to follow the trail, picking them up as I walked. I followed their path to the back patio door. I slid the door open and
The much awaited day had finally arrived. Kisses Jackson would officially become Kisses Jackson Green and Daniel would finally marry the love of his life. All of the last minute preparations were being carried out diligently. The wedding was to be the event of the year. The groom, the biggest corporate honcho in all of North Carolina and the bride, a well established doctor and socialite. All the big names in both the industries had arrived from all over the world to witness their union. Back in his hotel suite, Daniel was fidgeting with his cufflinks in anticipation and nervousness. Today was the day the love of his life would become his, truly. ****************** Kisses Pov When the veil was finally placed over my face, the back of it pinned to my hair with a crystal hair pin I let out a breathe I had been holding in for quite some time. Kylie was yelling at the wedding planner to make minute changes over the phone to the decorations while the poor woman who was overlooking thing
After 4 years Kisses POV Finally, I have already finished college and have my own degree as a veterinarian. I am so happy that, despite the circumstances in life, I was still able to make my dream come true. My entire journey in college is not easy. It is like I’m on a roller coaster ride. Being far from my relatives and especially Daniel, is like I’ve been surviving. Daniel visits and sleeps in my condo once a week if he doesn’t have practice football. Despite all the hardships I have encountered, I am still thankful that there are people willing to extend their hand for help. Tomorrow is the day I have been waiting for. I am excited about having my diploma. I need to have beauty rest for tomorrow’s special event in my life. I wake up with a smile on my face. I feel mixed emotions: happy and sad. I am happy that my relatives and friends will be present on my special day. Sad because my parents will not be there. But still, I need to have happy vibes for my day. I quickly get a show
~Daniel’s P.O.V~ Kisses leaves for school in a couple of days and to say I’m devastated would be an understatement. She hasn’t left my house unless it was for work or with me. I want to do something special for her today. I’m going to invite everyone over as a last little party to end the summer and get her a couple of things. I just finished my workout, Kisses is still passed out in bed. I get a couple of things together in the kitchen and prepare a small breakfast for her. She hasn’t been sleeping great. I’ve tried to talk to her about it but she just denies it. I know that she’s been having her night terrors. I think it’s stress-induced. I cut up some fruit and made a little platter, mixing some pancake batter together. I drop a couple of chocolate chips in them and let them cook. Once the food is all done I brew a cup of coffee and bring the food upstairs. Much to my surprise, Kisses is rubbing her eyes, the comforter covering her body. “Good morning, baby” I kiss her foreh
Last night was eventful if you know what I mean. Daniel has been a bit out of hand lately because I’m leaving for school soon. Speaking of school, I still haven’t packed yet. I don’t want to pack yet. I’m excited about school but not the location. It’s so far from Daniel. I grab my phone, checking the time to see that I have to get ready for work. I’m only working half a shift today, maybe then I’ll have time to pack. I slowly get out of bed, careful not to wake Daniel up. I ruffle through my bag, wanting to put some pants on. “Mm, I can’t wait to wake up to this every morning one day” A raspy voice comes from behind me. “Oh shush” I laugh, shaking my head. “It’s actually been a sort of dream I’ve had since I was little. My wife and I cooking breakfast in the morning. Me in a pair of sweatpants, you in my oversized t-shirt with a cute messy bun and no makeup” He smiles, his eyes tired. “Go back to bed” I shake my head, walking into his bathroom to change and get ready. When I
Today was the worst. Daniel had practice all day and I had to work all day. We were both so busy and I can’t even see him tonight. My phone sounds telling me I have a new text. Daniel: Baby Me: Daniel. Hey, what’s up? Daniel: I love you so f?cking much Me: I love you too hun. Is everything okay? Daniel: Nope Me: What’s going on? Daniel: Gotta go. Kisses I stare at my phone, confusion covering my face. I quickly dial Daniel’s number. It goes straight to voicemail. “Cody, I’m going to Daniel” I grab my keys, water, wallet, and phone charger and rush out the door. On my way I call Kylie, her voicemail greeting me. I get even more worried. Kylie always answers everyone right away. I hesitate to go faster than the speed limit, images of what happened last time flash through my brain. I ignore them, seeing the huge hill that leads to Daniel’s house. Soon enough I pull up to the house, rushing out to see a single car in the driveway. The house is silent except for the silent h
