Forever True (The Story of Us) (2 page)

“Lower.” I commanded. When the insecurity left her face, she let the dress drop fully to the floor. I closed the distance between us and ran my hands up and down her hips and around the globes of her luscious ass cheeks. I pulled her closer to me so that she could feel my rock hard erection against her. “When I said I loved you, I meant all of you. You're as beautiful now as you were the day I first laid eyes on you.”

I knew she felt insecure about her body and that she hid herself from me. She has talked about how the faint lines on her stomach and hips she received from carrying each of our daughters bothered her, or how some of the perkiness has left her breast. But all I saw was a woman I'd built a life with and who has given me two precious children. God willing, I would plant another one in there very soon.

“I want you off birth control.” I growled in her ear, my dick growing impossibly harder at the thought of coming inside of her and leaving my seed. I heard her draw in a quick breath before releasing it.

“Ok, Alex.” She replied.

I reached up and palmed her heavy breasts with one hand while rolling a thumb over her nipple with the other hand. When I pulled a stiff peak into my mouth, she gasped while running her fingers through my hair and held me close. I alternated between licking and sucking them both until she writhed and moaned against me. Finally, I pushed her back onto the bed and let my eyes feast on her. The way her hair fanned across the pillow, the flush of arousal that ran from her cheeks to her chest. How she held her legs open in invitation. The wetness glistening between her thighs was too tempting not to taste. I lowered my head and inhaled her before I delved into her sweetness with my tongue.

Perfection.

I loved doing this to her and the way she responded to me with such want and abandon. I licked and nipped at her until she was coming on my tongue, and I savored every bit. When her legs relaxed and rested on my shoulders, I kissed her quivering folds and made my way up her body. Over her abdomen, along her ribs, between the valley of her breast and up the hollow of her collarbone.

“I want you so much. Are you ready for me, baby?” I knew her answer even before she nodded. My girl was always ready for me. When she undid my belt and unzipped my pants, I was grateful for the relief as my cock sprang free. She wrapped her hand around the shaft while her thumb circled the tip where pre-cum was already forming. I couldn’t wait anymore. I wanted to do this slower but was finding it difficult to hold back.

“Baby, I’m going to blow before this even gets started. I need you.” When the tip of my cock found her entrance, I couldn’t resist pushing inside.

“Please, Alex.” She moaned. That was all I needed to hear before I slid completely into her. Her warm walls instantly clamped down on my cock.

“Fuck, Court.” I felt my eyes roll back as I seated myself fully and held my position for several moments. If I didn't take a second to gain control, I knew I would explode. Her fingernails lightly raked my back as she rocked herself back and forth against me. “Baby, I love the way you feel around me. I could stay here forever.”

“You can. You are mine forever, and I'm yours.”

She gasped as I pushed myself as far as she could take me. I pulled her legs to wrap around my waist and was able to go in just a little further.

“Oh, my god…oh, Alex. That feels…” She moaned and moved her hips under me.

“Perfect. You feel so perfect.” I kissed her deeply as I thrust in and out. “This is how it will be. Just you and me. Forever.” I made sure to meet her eyes so that she would see that I meant every word.

“Yes, yes always. I love you.” Her eyes were heated with passion and filled with love. I missed seeing that.

“I’m never letting you go. I will fight for you. You will always be mine.”

I was such an idiot for pushing her away in the first place. It hurt like hell to think that she had chosen someone else, and I didn’t know how to deal with it. I know now that the situation wasn’t what I thought, and I realized after it was too late that things between us didn’t have to end. I vowed always to listen to her, even if I don’t always want to. I will listen because I can’t be without her.

I moved my hips in slow circular motion so that I could hit all of her inner walls, and I could feel her muscles begin to tremor. She was close.

Thank fuck.

I kissed her and continued to thrust in time with my tongue; a move I knew could make her come instantly. And I was right. I knew my girl. Her pussy began milking me, and I came with such force that I couldn’t breathe.

“Unh, Courtney. Fuuuuck.” I groaned as my orgasm seemed to go on and on. When I opened my eyes and was able to finally draw in air, I saw the most beautiful face in the world staring back at me, satiated and smiling.

“God, I love you.” I nuzzled my nose into her neck and felt myself harden again. It was going to be a long night. I was addicted to being inside of her and wasn’t planning on kicking the habit any time soon.

Our twenty-four hour honeymoon was almost over. As we sat at the airport waiting for our boarding call, I relaxed into the arms of my husband while he rubbed tiny circles on the small of my back. My thoughts went to last night and how we spent it celebrating our reunion. After only a few hours of sleep, we got up, and went directly to the airport to catch a mid-morning flight home.

“I’m going to grab a magazine. Do you want something, baby?” He pointed to the tiny gift shop several yards to the left. I shook my head, and he gave me a kiss on the lips before he walked away. I didn’t miss the way two girls who looked to be in their early twenties eyed him appreciatively as he passed by them.

That’s right, bitches. He’s mine.

I had to admire him also. He only got sexier with age. How was that even fair? He hasn’t gained an ounce of weight in ten years. His muscles were firmer, and his tight butt still looked amazing in jeans. My cell phone buzzed in my purse, and I reluctantly pulled my eyes away from the view to see that DeeDee was calling. I cringed for a second because it had been two days since I last talked to her, and she had no idea about Alex and me. I felt the excitement build in my chest because I couldn’t wait to tell her.

“Hello?” I answered cheerfully and smiled wide.

“So, how’d it go with Will? I’ve been dying to call, but I wanted to give you space. I thought you would've called me by now.’

“Well, he and I aren’t a thing as it turns out.”

“Really? What happened? Does Kendra have something to do with it? She does, doesn’t she? I knew she had a thing for him.”

“What makes you say that?" I laughed, happy to learn that I wasn't the only person who picked up on the change in Kendra. I knew I was a bit tipsy, but I caught on. It made me wonder if Will did too.

“Please, it was so obvious, Court. I know all her moves. The minute she saw him that night she was all over him. When she’s really into a guy, she doesn’t drink as much. I apologize for my fucked up cousin. She's from my mom's side of the family, and you know how crazy they are.”

“Dee, it's fine. Trust me. I'm not even mad, in fact, I'm ecstatic. Will is a good guy. Maybe he would be good for Kendra.”

“I’m sorry, hon. I was hoping things would work out with him. He was such a hottie.” Just as Dee finished her sentence, the announcement was made over the intercom that our flight was boarding.

“Court? What was that? It sounded like an airport. Where are you? Are you at the airport?” Alex was walking back to the boarding area and waved me over while he stood in line.

“Um, Dee. It’s kind of a long story, and we are about to get on the plane.”

“Ok, just give me the bullet points then. Start with clarifying who you’re referring to when you say “we” and where “we” are going that requires a plane?” I took a deep breath as I reached Alex’s side.

“Say hi to Dee.” I held the phone out to Alex.

“Hi, Dee.” He said, and I pulled it away quickly.

“Is that Alex?” Dee screeched and began asking a million questions just like I knew she would. “Wait a fucking minute! Why are you and Alex together? Why are you getting on a plane? Where are you going? When will you be back?”

“We are in Vegas and boarding a plane to come home.”

“Vegas! What the hell are you doing in Vegas?”

“Getting married.”

“Married?” She shouted loud enough for everyone around us to hear. Alex and I both began laughing.

“Yep. We are an
us
again.” I confirmed. “But, Dee, I’ve got to go. We're almost to the front of the line. I promise I’ll call you tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow? Oh, hell no. Call me when you land, Courtney Turner. I mean it!” I promise to call her as soon as we landed because I could never resist her requests. “Oh, honey. I am so happy for the both of you. Oh my god. I can’t believe it.” Her words came out choppy, and I knew she was choked up, which caused me to tear up a little.

“Me either. I’m so happy, Dee.” I smiled up at Alex, who was holding my hand and giving the agent our boarding passes. He gave me a deep dimpled grin that melted my heart. I’d forgotten where I was and what I was doing for a second until I heard Dee’s voice through my clouded brain.

“You better call me and fly safely. Love you.”

“I will. Love you back.” I pressed end on the phone and let Alex pull me down the walkway to the plane that would take us back to our life, our girls and our home.

“How’s your brownie dinner, girls?” I smiled over at Liv and Jordyn, who both had chocolate smeared all over their cheeks.

“Delicious.” Liv mumbled around a mouth full. Alex and I went immediately to pick the girls up from Macy’s house after our flight landed and took them out for a choco-lava brownie dinner.

“Daddy?” Jordyn looked up at her father with a thoughtful expression.

“Yes, baby girl?”

“Are you coming back to our house after this?” My heart broke a little at her question. While we’ve told the girls that we are a family again, they still had a hard time understanding what that means. We’ve explained to them that Alex and I are married again and even showed them pictures. Which, by the way, turned out to be a mistake because Liv was pretty upset about not being a flower girl. We tried to make them understand that it was a special thing that Alex and I wanted to keep between us and that we promised to have a big party soon.

After Alex had paid the check, we headed towards the bathroom so that the girls could clean up. Just as I was about to walk into the washroom with them, my phone buzzed in my purse. I retrieved it expecting it to be Dee harassing me for more details. I didn’t expect to see Will’s name flashing across the screen, and I stopped walking. My eyes immediately went to Alex, who was staring at my phone; stone faced. When his gaze met mine, I knew he wasn’t happy. I made sure the girls were at the sink before stepping away from the door and into the hall outside the bathroom.

“Alex, he doesn’t know. I need to tell him. The sooner, the better.” He stared at me for a few seconds before nodding his head once. I hit the answer button on my phone just before it rang off to voice mail.

“Hello?”

“Courtney, Hi.”

“Hi, Will.” Alex’s expression turned pained, but he didn’t even attempt to move away. 

“Is everything okay? I expected a call from you, but it’s been a few days now and…” His voice trailed off with uncertainty.

“Everything is fine.” I smiled up at Alex reassuringly, which made his expression soften just a bit.

“Do you want to get together tonight? This is your week off, right?”

“Look, Will, I think you are a great guy, and I don’t want to continue to lead you on. I’m sorry, but I can’t see you anymore.” I decided to get it over with and just rip the band-aid off. There was no sense in wasting a lot of time with small talk.  Will was quiet for a moment.

“Is it because of him?” I knew who he meant, the hurt evident in his voice.

“Yes, we are back together and happy. I want the same for you. I hope you can understand.”

“Yeah. Um, okay. Cool. Congratulations or whatever.”  He snorted, and his tone confirmed that he in no way felt cool about anything I’ve just said. For the first time, he was actually showing his age. “Yeah, so I gotta go. Take care, Courtney.” Click.

Gah.
I prayed that was the last heart I ever had to break.

The giggling from the girls in the bathroom began to grow louder, so I poked my head in to tell them to dry off and come out.

“Are you okay?” I asked Alex, apprehensively. He gave me a small smile and nodded.

“I will be.” Just then, the girls burst through the doors interrupting the moment. Liv and Jordyn sprinted away causing Alex and I to call out in unison. “Wait for us.” When we smiled at each other, he gave me a wink and grabbed my hand as we walked out to catch up to our daughters.

Week One of the new Alex and Courtney.

"What are we going to do with all this stuff?" I looked around our cluttered garage which was now full of boxes that Alex brought over in three...yes, three full truck loads from his place. He simply shrugged at me as he unloaded another box from the back of his Expedition.
