Pieces of Me Pua Ramona (read me a book txt) 📖

don’t want to wait. I’m meeting with everyone at the jobsite to make plans. I need you both to take her out while we set things up tomorrow, and I’ll text you when everything’s ready.” I say.

“Where should we bring her?” Mama says with excitement in her eyes.

I smile. “My backyard.” I say goodbye to both the mother’s and I set off on my way to meet up with everyone. I’m going to ask her to stay. I am ready to spend the rest of my life with her.

Chapter Seventy

Sina

I woke up and he wasn’t there, but the memories from last night made me blush. He made love to me, and it was something so new to me. It was nothing I have ever felt before. He didn’t rush me instead he took his time loving me not only physically, but emotionally. Eli made me feel beautiful inside and out. I believed with my heart that he loved me because I felt his tears on my chest next to my heart. I should be freaking out that he didn’t wear a condom, but I didn’t care because I needed to feel all of him. I didn’t want anything between us. He made love to me a few more times and each time that he did, every single cut, every single scar that I have carried with me for years didn’t matter anymore. His every touch replaced all the bad memories that I held on to. And every single time he whispered “I love you”, the missing pieces of me were being replaced with the pieces of him. Sigh. I love him. Eli’s my safe place, my home. I wasn’t sure if he was home, so I got out of bed and threw his shirt on. I also needed him to tell me to stay. The house was empty, so I went to the kitchen and saw that he left me a note:

Beautiful;

I hope you slept good babe. I have a few errands to run, so

If you need anything call me. Even if it’s for a kiss. I made you

Some coffee too. I love you Moony!!

P.s. I loved waking up with you in my bed and I plan

on waking up to you for the rest of my life.

Sigh. I kiss his note and stick it on the refrigerator and pour myself a cup of coffee. I grab my phone and decide to go sit out in the backyard. It’s pretty cold, but I don’t care because I’m in love, plus I freaking love his backyard. I snag one of the covers that’s on one of the chairs and cover my legs with it. I turn my phone on and send him a text:

Me: I woke up to a cold bed ☹ But thank you for making me coffee, I love you!

Hurry up and come home. I freaking miss you.

Xoxo

My love: I’ll be home soon. I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!!!!!!

Me: Sigh. Blushing.

My love: <3

He’s perfect. I’ve been cheated on, beat, and sexually abused and through it all something inside of me still held on, and kept me going. Life has been crazy, but if anything I have learned that there will be people who’ll try and do anything to break you and cut you from the world. But we’re given a choice to either fight our way out, or allow the ugliness to keep you from existing. Everything happens for a reason they say, but I am just grateful that God, my family, friends and Eli never gave up on me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. My life was beautiful. I’m not sure how long I sit outside for but my phone starts buzzing with a text.

Mama: Family meeting this evening at six. Don’t ask me why, just be here please.

Me: We’ll be there when Eli gets back.

I’m not sure what it's about so I don’t know how I’m supposed to be feeling right now. I just hope that it isn’t anything bad, because I have reached my limit of bad news. I drink the rest of my coffee and head back inside to get ready for this family meeting.

Chapter Seventy-One

Eli

Everyone was on board with my plan and I was ready to get the ball rolling. I wasn’t too worried about Luka, Daniel, and Reese because they knew I was going to ask their sister to marry me, they did threaten to beat my ass if I hurt her again. Megan and Mona were giving me shit about it then gave me their blessings. Becca was happy for me, Michael took it a little harder and I wasn’t surprised. I was glad that Emma was there, I needed to know how she felt about it before I started assigning everyone their duties.

“Emma, how would you feel if I asked your mother to marry me?” I ask her when I get to the office.

Her eyes go so big that I’m afraid that they’re going to pop out of her head. “I would be so happy. I don’t want to go back to New York because I don’t want to leave you or anyone else” she says. Yeah, this little girl owns me just as much as her mama does.

“So, is that a yes?” I ask.

She jumps and I catch her. “Yes, yes, yes. You can marry her.” She squeals.

I hug her, then kiss the top of her head. I set her back down and give her a little bag. “I got you something.” I say as I hand it to her. Everyone watches as she pulls out a jewelry box.

“I love it Eli,” she says. She removes the ring out of the box then looks at me. “Can I put it on my necklace?” She asks while pointing at the necklace with Baby Eli’s prints on. “That way you can be close to my heart too.”

My heart explodes and I feel my eyes
