Chapter Twenty Two

L
ater that night Paige and Bobby were in bed, in each other’s arms as the breeze floated through the room cooling off their skin. Paige was tracing patterns on his chiseled chest with her fingertips as Bobby played in her hair. They talked about the day on the boat and the lessons James insisted she have on sailing since her father is a fisherman and her boyfriend loves to sail.

“Babe,” Paige said. Something had been on her mind all day after the all the talk about Nathan’s sister.

“Yeah,” he replied.

“Are Marcus and Rita really close,” Paige asked turning her face up to look at him. “I mean closer than the rest of you guys.”

“I guess you could say so,” Bobby said furrowing his brows. “Their closer in age than the rest of us guys, they’re seven years apart. I guess you could say Marcus is closer with Marie, too. But when Nathan and Rita’s mother passed I think things changed.”

“Oh my God, I didn’t know their mother passed. I mean he has never mentioned her but I never wanted to pry,” Paige said sadly. “How old were they?”

“Rita was only sixteen but Nate was twenty six. The whole family took it hard. Rita locked herself in her room for weeks and wouldn’t let anyone in. It took sometime before we figure out that when we couldn’t find Marcus anywhere it was because he was climbing up into her bedroom,” Bobby laughed and shook his head.

“We thought he was off partying and hooking up but he was taking Rita food to make sure she was eating. Then he was whatever she needed, a shoulder to cry on, someone to talk to. They were really close after that, if he wasn’t away at college he was home with Rita and Marie.”

“That’s so sweet, he must really care for her,” Paige said and watched for Bobby’s reaction.

He nodded and ran a hand through his hair. “I think Rita had a crush on him at one point but Marcus knew Nathan and I would kick his ass if he tried something with her,” Bobby chuckled.

“Do you think he returned her feelings?”

“I don’t know, I was just coming out of school then and I really wanted to make a good impression with dad. So I was at the firm all the time or home looking to find that extra edge,” Bobby shrugged.

“Rita is gorgeous, I don’t think it impossible, but I don’t think he would have acted on it. The last time they saw each other she was nineteen. She’s been engaged to Anton for all this time and started planning the wedding last year.”

“They haven’t seen each other in six years,” Paige gasped, “after being so close?”

“Rita never wants to come home,” Bobby sighed. “I think he has tried to see her a few times when he was over there but if Rita doesn’t want to be found or if she doesn’t want to do something it’s not going to happen. Sort of like someone else I know.”

“I wonder who that could be,” Paige teased.

“I think I worry more about Marie being so far away from home than Rita. Not just because Marie is my blood, but Rita is so strong. She can find her way back from anything. I think she is going to get through whatever is going on with her,” Bobby paused and sighed again.

“I just think whatever she is looking for maybe here, at home with her family. I really think she needs to come home. It’s not that simple but I plan to do everything in my power to make it so.”

“I love the way you are with your family and your friends. The way you talk about them and the way you are with them, it’s amazing. I wish I had that with my sister,” Paige said as she cupped his face.

“Camille has mentioned a few times that you have a sister, but I’ve never seen her in the pictures in your office,” Bobby looked at her curiously.

Paige laughed and tilted her head at him. “If you have seen all the photos in my office you have seen her. We are identical twins. I don’t think I have any photos in the office of us together but she is in a few without me.”

“So there is a carbine copy of you out there somewhere. The men of this world never stood a chance did they. Every photo in your office that I have seen have this face,” he ran his thumb across her bottom lip, “and it is absolutely stunning.”

“You couldn’t possible have noticed every photo in my office,” Paige beamed at him.

“When will you understand that I am interested in anything that involves you? I have studied those photos so many times when I have been in your office. You were so busy rattling off facts and details that you wouldn’t have noticed the way I watched you or scanned your office while I listened to your voice,” Bobby rolled their bodies so he was hovering over her.

“Is that so,” Paige panted as he nuzzled the side of her neck.

“I want to know everything about you, every inch, every detail, and every nuance. I want to know every thought and feeling. I want to know every hair, everything that makes you happy, sad, angry and so turned on you want no one, nothing but me,” Bobby said gruffly as he took her, beginning to learn more.

Chapter Twenty Three

“G
ot you,” Paige exclaimed causing Bobby and Camille to look up from their laptops. “Bobby, where’s that fax Tim just sent over?”

“Camille, can you bring that over. I placed it on the desk next to you,” Bobby said as he got up and move to Paige’s side.

“Here you go,” Camille rushed over and peered over Paige’s shoulder at the computer screen she was looking at.

“They forged the documents. These are the originals from Mr. Oreeso. See the seal and the date,” Paige pointed to the fax. “Now these here are the ones the attorneys submitted as evidence. The signatures are off and the seal is dated after the original documents. The key to the case is sitting back in our office. This one is as good as wrapped. Mr. Oreeso was right they’re trying to steal his company.”

“Baby you are a genius. Our team has had this document for weeks and you just wrapped the case in less than a half hour. With an email and a damn fax, I fucking love you,” Bobby crooned and lifted Paige off the floor, spinning her in his arms.

Paige laughed and threw her arms around Bobby as he planted kisses all over her face. This case was huge and to find such a small mistake on the plaintiff’s behalf was a gift of epic portions. Mr. Oreeso had said over and over that his son in law and his company were making this whole case up to push him out of business. The story was all over the news.

“When we get home I’m treating you to whatever you want. I can’t wait to tell dad about this,” Bobby hooted.

“Bobby,” Paige said in a small voice.

“Yeah, Baby,” Bobby answered anxiously at the sound of Paige’s voice. He quickly placed her back down on her feet and noticed she was unsteady. “Are you okay?”

“Just a little dizzy,” Paige mumbled. “I think I need to sit.”

Bobby helped her to the couch and sat with her brushing her hair from her face. “I think we can call it a day. Maybe surfing this morning wasn’t a good idea. We had a long day and night yesterday,” Bobby scanned her face.

“I’m fine, I just got catch up in the moment with you. You’re stronger than you think,” Paige teased. “I’m going to go up and take a shower and lay down for a bit.”

“I can carry you up,” Bobby offered and stood.

Paige stood and smiled. “I’m fine.”

Bobby pressed his lips and searched her face again. “I just need to sign some things for Camille to send out and I’ll be up,” he relented.

“Okay, see you in a bit,” Paige smiled and kissed his cheek.

“I love you,” Bobby kissed her forehead then placed a quick kiss on her lips.

“I love you too,” Paige said coyly.

~B~

“Baby,” Bobby called into the room as he unbuttoned his shirt. He thought Paige would be napping by now.

Paige stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body and one in her hand. Her hair was wet and wavy around her face and shoulders. Bobby stopped what he was doing and just stared at her. She looked like an angel. He crossed the room and stopped in front of her reaching to take a lock of her waves between his fingers.

“Wow, this is what your natural hair looks like,” he mused as he combed his fingers through her wet locks. He smiled looking pass her at all her hair tools and products on the bathroom counter. He kissed her temple. “You are so beautiful. Will you wear it like this for me?”

“Are you serious,” Paige frowned and reached to touch her hair. She hadn’t worn her natural weaves since she was a girl. She was so used to straightening it right after she washed it.

“Please,” Bobby smiled brighter.

“I guess,” Paige shrugged. “It would save me some trouble if we’re going to go out in the water again.”

“Thank you,” Bobby beamed with a boyish smile. He wrapped her in an embrace and rubbed her back. “How are you feeling?”

“I’m fine. The shower helped. I think I will still take that nap, but I want to go for our walk you promised me this morning when I wake up,” Paige purred.

“Anything you want,” he placed a kiss on her lips, “I’m going to shower and I’ll join you. I think it is all catching up to me too.”

“Okay, I’ll just clean my things up and get out of your way,” Paige turned to collect her things but Bobby reached for arm and stopped her. “No rush, take your time.”

Bobby stepped into the bathroom and started to undress in front of her, while giving her a sexy grin. Paige turned for her things before she forgot about that nap and ended up in the shower with him.

~B~

“This place is so beautiful. I’m glad I came,” Paige sighed as they walked hand in hand.

“I’m more than glad you came,” Bobby said and winked at her.

“This all seems so surreal. I’m afraid that when we get back home I’m going to wake up and find it was all a dream,” Paige said as she pushed a hand into her wild locks.

Bobby stopped and pulled her against his chest. “Only thing you have to worry about when we get back home is if we are going to wake up at my place or yours,” Bobby told her and kissed the wrinkle between her brows. “Stop worrying Paige. I’m not going anywhere. I love you. Nothing is going to change that.”

“I want to hear you say that after you’ve lived with me and met my family,” Paige teased.

“Any family you come from has to be amazing and I was kind of hoping we could figure out whose place we’re going to rent or sale. I don’t ever want to spend a night without you,” Bobby said impishly as he swayed Paige in his arms.

“Really, you want to move in together. Isn’t this all kind of fast? We’ve been a couple less than a week,” Paige gulped.

“I’m not trying to scare you off. If you want to keep your place, we’ll just alternate between our places for a while. I can live with that,” Bobby said nervously. He didn’t want to push Paige to hard and he had a feeling he may have just gone too far.

“Can I think about it,” Paige said looking up at him through her lashes.

“Of course,” he sighed in relief. Paige reached up and kissed him passionately. “I have a question for you.” Bobby decided to change the subject to take the pressure off.

“Okay, let’s have it counselor,” Paige teased.

“On your profile for the club, um, your preferences,” Bobby winced. “You didn’t want to be kissed on the mouth but you’re an amazing kisser. I love your lips, why no kissing?”

“I didn’t know I would be kissing you Bobby,” Paige laughed. “Kissing is personal and intimate. I didn’t want to share that with a stranger.”

“So the no kissing was not because you don’t like it,” Bobby said with a naughty grin.

“Bobby, there are a lot of things I put on my don’ts list that I would only do with my boyfriend,” Paige purred with a saucy look in her eyes.

“Is that right,” Bobby breathed, pulling her closer.

“Yup, it certainly is, lots of things that I would only…do …for… my man,” Paige punctuated her words with a kiss to his lips, his jaw, his neck and his chest as she lowered herself down his body and unfastened his shorts.

“Paige,” Bobby croaked out as he quickly looked around the beach. “Baby, I don’t think you want to do that here.”

“Yes, I do,” Paige purred and wrapped her hand around his girth pulling him free of his boxer. “Do you trust me?”

“Yes,” Bobby breathed while looking down into her eyes. Paige flicked out her tongue to tease the moisture from his tip. He groaned at the sight encouraging her. She swirled her tongue around the tip before pulling it into her mouth. “Paige,” Bobby groaned out as his head flew back.

Paige hummed as she sucked him in as far as she could and wrapped her hands around the rest. He was too large to palm with one hand or pull all the way into her mouth, but she eagerly pumped her hands up and down his length as she worked the tip with her mouth.

Bobby slipped his hands into her wild waves and locked his fingers in her hair. His hips involuntarily started to thrust forward as he gave into the feel of her mouth sucking and working him all the way to the back of her throat. When her teeth unsheathed to tease his tip he growled and tightened his hold on her hair, his girl knew him so well already. He loved it.

“Oh Baby, that’s so good,” Bobby groaned and locked eyes with Paige as she looked up at him watching him come part from her gifted mouth and her amazing skills.

She cupped his balls with her moist hand and massaged them as she increased her speed, bobbing, sucking, slurping and humming. It was all music to Bobby, driving him insane. Paige rolled her tongue around his girth as she pulled him back into her mouth and he knew he couldn’t hold on any longer.

“Baby, I’m cumming,” he gasped and tried to pull out of her mouth. Paige shook her head at him reached for his buttock holding him in place, as she switched her angle and working him for all he was worth. “
Fuck
,” Bobby bellowed as his head fell back and his seed shoot down the back of her throat.

Paige kept working him as his legs trembled, drawing out every drop and licking him clean. She looked up at him with a naughty grin as he popped free of her mouth. Bobby legs gave and he collapsed to his knees. Paige looked up at him with a wicked smile still on her face. Bobby laughed and shook his head at her grabbing her face and kissing her hard.

“I want to make you cum,” Bobby groaned into her mouth and reached for the zipper on her shorts.

“Babe, I think a storm is coming,” Paige giggled. “We should go back.”

Bobby looked up and grunted at the clouds in frustration. He made quick work of fixing his clothes then stood. On queue the rain drops started. Paige got to her feet and Bobby lifted her and tossed her over his shoulder.

“This is not over,” he slapped her ass and laughed, taking off for the house.
