"I'll help, and I'll actually help this time" I promise her with a small grin. And I do, for the most part, but I mostly just watch her wash her hair and clean her body. She really is a sight, my very own personal goddess. Eventually she shuts the water off and I step out of the shower and hand her
"How's the morning sickness? I hope you're not throwing up everywhere!" Amelia asks in a tone that might make you think she'd love for Poppy to be throwing up everywhere. "Haven't had any this week, hopefully that stage is all finished but I'm not holding my breath. So what kinds of things do you
Some days I know for sure that marriage only makes people become more miserable, and other days I need her to be my wife and have my last name so fucking badly. "I know I know, but she's very mature for her age so I wouldn't be surprised if she started all that sort of thing early. Speaking of, the
"Yeah of course, alright here he is" I stand up and go to take the phone back from her before she keeps hold of it, close to her ear with two hands. "Love you too Bianca, and to the kids and Michael too okay? Okay, bye!" Her grin is shy as she hands the phone back to me. I place a kiss on her forehe
"Need any help baby?" I call to her through the door the second it shuts. Fuck I'd love to just take her against the door right now. "I'm good!" She calls back. "Alright then, I'll just go pay" I grin at the shut door and pick up the bags from the Apple Store and leave the changing room area. "Rh
I wrap my arm around her waist as we make our way up towards the house, I can already hear the loud thumping music resonating from inside - luckily there aren't any neighbours close by or else this party would be shut down very quickly. Amelia tilts her head to rest on my shoulder as we approach th
If they confirm what he's talking about, then I could potentially be on board. He keeps his word and we're done in relatively quickly and I depart back inside to find Amelia. She's not where I last saw her, and I'm struggling to find the group of girls she was with as well. "Hey stranger" A tall bl
I grab a drink from the bar and scan the room again to try and find her. She's not anywhere to be seen in the small area where people are dancing, there has to be somewhere else where they all are. Fuck, I've got to stop letting her out of my sight like this. Over on the other side of the room there
"Wanna give one a go?" I suggest to her with a small grin."Might be a bit premature, don't think Max is the marriage type quiet yet" She responds with a quiet giggle, then catches herself as we all stop and gape at her. She hasn't mentioned Max in that context in a very long time. Behind Poppy, Fra
"It's stunning sweetheart, absolutely stunning" My mum comments excitedly as I allow my hands to rest at my sides, my reflection making my heart race quickly. I'm wearing a wedding dress. Maybe not the wedding dress, but a wedding dress none the less. It all seems insane to think that I had spent th
Fran, Bianca and now Sarah are at the racks, perhaps browsing for me or for Fran, who recently moved to London and is flat hunting with her boyfriend Zayn."They have wedding dresses at charity shops? I can't tell if that's bleak or romantic" Poppy comments quietly to me as I sit down beside her."
"You are referred to as exactly what you are, a man, while I am referred to as my relationship to you, a wife. Like the only identifiable thing about me is that now I am your wife but you still get to be a man in your own right" I explain. It's something that's always irked me while watching TV show
"You forget we had sex in a bookstore?" Rhode leans in close and murmurs to me, heat rising on my cheeks instantly. One of my wilder moments I would say."Did not forget that, but I'd rather not have to explain that story to, well anyone" I say with an embarrassed giggle. I definitely told at least
"Please, take it" He states in a soft tone that makes butterflies flit around my stomach. "When?" He adds with a little more urgency."How about, before the years end?" I suggest. It's early October now so going into the colder England months, it's not exactly going to be extraordinary weather but t
"Thank you" I mumble against his lips, brushing my nose against his. His hand lingers on my hip as I come down off of my tiptoes, the wind blowing some of my hair into my face."I'll support you either way, it's up to you" He softly states, his eyes never leaving mine as his hand leaves my hip and t
"Hey, you remember yesterday when we had the family over for lunch?" I say just as we approach the small coffee stand near the fountain at the centre of the park. It's run by a father and son out of a truck that normally attracts a large crowd of locals but today seems a little isolated, supposed we
"To be honest, I feel anxious about taking her out on my own" Rhode states honestly as we wait at the corner for our crosswalk light to turn green. It's a surprising admission that immediately gets my attention."You've never mentioned anything like that" I express as I put a hand on his arm while h
