The Harper Twins Chapter 164 - Always Aimee
"Are you sure you're ready for this?" Aimee couldn't believe Bonnie was about to take Abby for an entire night. "Have you been to her house, you know, to make sure it's actually a house and not some rickety shack or worse, a broken-down boat? This is Florida, you know. People live in all kinds of places, like cars, abandoned buses. Tents, even. Just yesterday, I saw someone parked on the side of the causeway in a white van with a flat screen TV mounted to the side."Clint laughed as he unpacked his lunch box. Abby ran straight to her bedroom once they walked through the door, eager to get to her dolls. "I can't see Bonnie living in any of those places. I'm sure it'll be fine, but thanks for worrying, though.""How can you be so calm about this? Abby hasn't been out of your sight for over a year, and now she's going to be gone all night with the woman who ran out on her. Doesn't that make you even the littlest bit nervous? What if Bonnie does it again and you're not there to protect Abb

She didn't agree, still upset that he kept Bonnie's visits from her. She wasn't ready to give in just yet, choosing to hold onto her anger. Her anger protected her."C'mon. Go get dressed for a night on the town. We'll live it up and then come back here for a night of wild abandon. Or soft cuddles on the couch. Whatever you want.""I'm not leaving until Bonnie is gone. I don't want her telling you all over again how much she wants you."He smiled as he nodded. "That's fine with me. You can be with me every time Bonnie has to be around if that makes you feel better.""And talk to your parents. I don't want her doing pop-bys there to ambush you. And keep her off the job site.""You got it." He pulled her close and kissed her forehead, his lips warm enough to stir the heat between her legs and thaw out her anger. "I'll do whatever I can to make this as easy as possible for you, for us.""I'm hungry, Daddy." They both turned to see Abby standing at the entrance to the hallway, a doll dangl

The evening held a slight breeze that tugged at Aimee's blond hair, making her consistently snatch at it to tuck it behind her ears. The battle was equally as frustrating with the skirt she chose to wear, as the wind kept flapping the fabric around her thighs and jerking the skirt up in the air, exposing her ass if she wasn't careful. The carnival was crowded with families being dragged around on the inky parking lot by little hands toward chances to win a giant stuffed animal and couples embraced arm in arm wandering from ride to ride. Colored lights beckoned as hawkers called out as they passed, enticing them to take a chance at a game, urging Clint to win his beautiful lady a prize. The night air was thick with the aroma of popcorn and deep fryers as people lined up for greasy hot dogs and strawberry lathered funnel cakes. Music blared from the rides, mostly outdated eighties songs as people were spun, tilted, and twirled in dangerous looking contraptions of amusement. The place wa

They cuddled against each other for the remainder of the ride, Clint rubbing the back of her hand with his thumb, while she stared off at the skyline. The parking lot faced the north, but the Ferris wheel offered an excellent view of the moon casting its romantic glow along the ocean, the waves underneath ripples of ink. All too soon the ride was over, not that Aimee expected hours in the rocking chair, but it still seemed rather short for the price, especially with all the stops to let people on and off. The man unlocked the bar and Clint offered her a hand out of the rusty lift. They quickly scooted out of the next patron's way, Clint clutching her hand and leading her to the side. "What do you want to do now?" he asked, as soon as they were clear of the waiting people."Daddy!" A blur shoved past Aimee so hard, she had to grab Clint's arm to keep from toppling over. Even Clint seemed to have a hard time maintaining his balance from the force of the sudden arms wrapped around him. J

"Damn it, Clint, you didn't hear the way she said it." Aimee fumed, pacing back and forth in her condo, beating a path into her carpet from the sliding glass doors to the small kitchen table. She still couldn't believe Bonnie had the audacity to remind Aimee that Clint and the bitch were still married. That fact was never far from the front of Aimee's mind anyway. The way Bonnie said it, however, was almost like a threat, taunting Aimee. "I don't know what you said to her, but it's obviously not getting through to her. She's not giving up. She fully intends on getting you back.""It doesn't matter what she intends." Clint sat at the kitchen table, a cup of coffee in his hands as he watched Aimee pace the length of her living room. "We're getting divorced. That's all there is to it. The papers are already drawn up.""Well, someone needs to tell her." Aimee stopped, her hands on her hips as she stared at Clint. She couldn't believe how calm he acted. "Clint, I'm serious. Bonnie is not gi

Panic clutched her chest. "I do. Really. I just…" She sighed, knowing what a mess she made of everything. "I thought you wanted what you had before and I was trying to give it to you." She shrugged. "I'm used to men always chasing Karla, preferring what she offered rather than being with me, and I see Bonnie and Karla as a lot alike."He kissed her forehead again. "But I never asked Karla out, did I? I asked you out. Doesn't that tell you anything?""I'm just…I'm just not used to it, that's all. I've only had two relationships, really, and one of those just wanted in my pants. Once he got it, he dumped me. The other chose a career in Washington over me." She glanced up into his eyes, her chest tightening at her confession. "I'm not used to men picking me just to be with me.""C'mon," Clint said, grabbing her hand and leading her back to the kitchen. "Let's get some more coffee and go sit on the balcony. Yours has a much better view than mine." He looked back at her and winked.Aimee gr

Aimee took a deep breath before opening the door to Hanson's Furniture. Clint was meeting with Ginny to pick up the final draft of the divorce papers, but Aimee decided to skip the meeting and take the battle to Bonnie. After stewing over the situation all weekend, Aimee grew tired of being a passenger in her own life. If Bonnie wanted to play it rough, then Aimee was determined to let the woman know that she was up for the challenge. She didn't tell Clint what she planned, just letting him know she had something she needed to take care of that morning. He'd probably tell her it was a bad idea, so instead, she called Karla. Of course, Karla thought it was a bad idea as well, so there was no support there, which surprised her."I'm not saying you shouldn't confront the bitch," Karla said earlier that morning. "I'm saying maybe doing it at the woman's place of employment isn't the smartest step. You really want her running to Clint, telling him you tried to get her fired by causing a sce

"Clint, that woman is bat-shit crazy," Bonnie's voice trilled through the phone. "She actually came to my workplace to attack me. What kind of woman do you have around our daughter?"Clint took a deep breath, running his hand through his hair. Bonnie's complaint had to be some kind of joke; some fabrication Bonnie dreamed up to have something to bitch to him about Aimee. Aimee was just not the type to go after anyone, especially where they worked. "I highly doubt she attacked you, Bonnie. That's just not Aimee's style." Ben stood in the doorway of the house, leaning on the doorframe, arms across his chest as he listened in on Clint's call. Not much privacy around a job site. Clint rolled his eyes and tried to ignore the man, turning his back to him."Well then, what do you call it? She came to my office, all puffed up and threatening, demanding that I stay away from you and Abby. Demanding, Clint, not asking or suggesting. I don't go to your girlfriend's office and make scenes, and I d

The Harper Twins Chapter 181 - Always Aimee
They were the last ones to arrive at the park, the others already choosing a spot and Marvin Asher firing up the grill. Karla wore a skirt that actually covered everything it should and had her breasts tucked conservatively out of sight. Aimee was shocked but glad. Clint's parents would get to know all about her sister soon enough. Aimee didn't need the first meeting to be a shocker for them.Abby ran to the Ashers first, giving them each a hug and squealing when her grandfather picked her up and threatened to throw her in the air. Then, to Aimee's surprise and delight, the little girl ran to Aimee's mother and hugged her as well. She offered the others a quick hello and then darted for the playground, Clint's mother following just to keep a nervous eye on her. Paul and Mitch stood beside the picnic table, Karla clinging to Mitch's side, as Aimee's mother sat in front of them, all talking and laughing. Aimee stood still a moment, soaking in this perfect scene. They were one big happy f
The Harper Twins Chapter 180 - Always Aimee
Aimee stretched, her arms extending out to her side only to come up short as her hand hit another body. Rolling over, she gently ran a hand over Clint's face, a smile dancing across her own. The Saturday morning light peeked through his curtains, calling them to rise and shine, but Aimee ignored it, as she had tried to do every morning since Monday night. Every night she fell asleep beside him, and every morning she woke up wrapped around him, her arms exploring his naked chest. No matter how tired they were when they went to bed, the two of them decided, for Abby's sake, they'd make sure they wore pajamas before falling asleep. A young girl still had moments of nightmares, after all, and needed her Daddy in the middle of the night. Monday night everything changed. Bonnie was no longer his wife. Oh, he still had to stand before the judge next week and make it official, but for all intents and purposes, it was a done deal. Nothing stood in the way of their happiness now.She ran a fing

When the kiss broke, he grinned down at her. "Just tell me we can do some more photo shoots."She laughed again, harder, freer. "Clint Asher, I'll do whatever you want. All you have to do is name it." She kissed him again, this time softer, with less urgency, but just as much passion.When the kiss was over, she slid back into her seat, scooping up her wine glass as she did. "So tell me about today."He did, sharing with her how Bonnie wasn't planning on signing the papers in the beginning. First, he told her Bonnie's revelation of a need for family and why she returned. Then, he explained how he convinced her how signing the papers was the only way for the two of them to get on with their lives, that she could be the best mother to Abby she could be, but she would never again be his wife. He told Bonnie that she needed to respect Aimee and make the transition as smooth as possible. They were Abby's parents, but they would never be friends.When he finished, Aimee told him about Bonnie
The Harper Twins Chapter 178 - Always Aimee
The night dragged on, and Aimee could not shake her nervousness. Clint had asked her over to join them for dinner but still had not said anything about what he felt they needed to discuss. He hadn't even mentioned his meeting with Bonnie that afternoon, which made Aimee keep quiet about how the woman visited her. No need to bring up the subject if he was going to end it with her.Abby was a bundle of energy, bouncing on the couch and wanting to dominate the attention. After growing bored with that, she dragged Aimee to her room and played tea, while her father cooked dinner and music played from the front room. As Aimee played dolls with Abby, she wondered if the girl knew the extent of everything that was happening in the lives of the adults around her or if she was blissfully oblivious. For the little girl's sake, she hoped it was the latter."Dinner's ready," Clint called from the front room. Aimee had to admit he sounded happy since she arrived, not as if he was ready to send her o
The Harper Twins Chapter 177 - Always Aimee
A knock came at the door. Aimee glanced over her shoulder but didn't move to answer it. If it was Clint, she wanted to postpone the inevitable for as long as possible.Whoever it was knocked again. Karla stepped out of the hallway, glanced at Aimee, and then moved to answer the door. "You worry too much," Karla said over her shoulder.Aimee turned back to the ocean, the curling waves matching the churning in her stomach. She knew she was being dramatic, but she couldn't stop herself. She hated defeat."What the hell are you doing here?" Karla's voice snapped Aimee's attention around. Expecting to see Clint standing there, she was stunned when she noticed Bonnie, the woman ramrod straight, her neck stiff, and one white-knuckled hand gripping her purse strap close to her shoulder. Aimee could feel the confusion furrowing her brow, her eyes squinting, as if trying to make sure she saw what she actually saw. "Bonnie?""Again I ask, what are you doing here?" Karla stood in front of the oth
The Harper Twins Chapter 176 - Always Aimee
Something went wrong. While Aimee had no idea what that something was, she knew it had to be about Clint's divorce. Why else would he text her saying they needed to talk right after meeting with Bonnie? The waves barreled onto the shore, breaking upon the sand and rearranging the Atlantic Coast, just as Clint's text rearranged her security, sending her spinning in the riptide of the unknown. She stared at the white foam as the ocean sucked it back out into the deeper waters, reclaiming it as its own. Had Bonnie succeeded in the same thing with Clint? Had she won the fight and taken her husband back? Once again regaining her happy little family?She closed her eyes against the onslaught of scenarios that pummeled her mind, her head screaming against the intrusion. With everything she could muster, she tried to fight the battle within her, giving Clint the assurance he wanted that she believed him when he told her he would be here forever. Yet, it wasn't her experience. Men said whatev
The Harper Twins Chapter 175 - Always Aimee
Clint pulled into the local Starbucks, deciding it was the safest place to meet Bonnie to get her to sign the divorce papers. Hopefully, the opportunity for her to respond negatively would be greatly reduced by the public meeting. He had no doubt that meeting her in private would lead to her doing something detrimental to the proceeding. He just wanted to get her to sign the divorce papers and get the whole thing over with, so he could get on with the rest of his life, get on with his relationship with Aimee.He sighed. Hopefully, get Aimee to calm down and return to normal. It wasn't that all the adventures she came up with weren't hot as hell. They were, and he wouldn't mind doing them, but not if she only did them to compete with Bonnie. He wanted Aimee to be Aimee, the woman he fell in love with, the woman who sat on the couch with him and Abby and watched Disney movies, the woman who jumped into a flour fight in the kitchen, giggling and tossing the white powder everywhere. He did

Aimee stretched, her body screaming its protest at her, hating the fact that morning was already here, and she needed to rise and shine. Only one part of that would be possible until after coffee. She rolled over, her gaze drifting to the sliding glass doors at the east of her bedroom. The morning sun coaxed her, urging her to call into work and take the day off, to make a day of it at the beach, the sun's rays kissing her flesh. She grinned, scrunching down into her covers, her mind drifting to Clint's lips on hers, the passion in each one of his kisses, warming her insides like the sun would warm her outside. If she was going to call out of work, she wanted to spend the day in bed with Clint.Once they left his workshop, he went to pick up Abby and then met her at Charlie's for dinner. Abby was a chatty little girl, while she drew on her kid's menu, excited about being out with them. It was even pleasant to sit at a table, Clint's arm stretched across as he held her hand, Abby bounci

They spent the next hour moving things around in his workshop, setting up a photo shoot of the furniture he intended on selling, and making each piece look enticing. Aimee threw herself into the task at hand, examining the shadows cast by the lighting inside the workshop and making a small studio spot off to the side with nothing in the background, using some of his dark dropcloths as background drops. Clint helped her move things around, happy to be the manual labor to her vision for his photos.Outside, night started to fall, casting darker shadows on the ground as lamp posts popped on, offering only a slimmer of light to illuminate the world. Aimee finished taking her pictures: rocking chairs, tables, even a dresser Clint had crafted himself. They teased, laughing at each other when Aimee wasn't so focused on what she was doing. This was her passion, taking pictures, and she could get lost in the process for hours, inspecting angles and lighting, zooming in and out, carefully select
