Forever You Lynn, Sandi (best novels to read in english txt) 📖

Do you understand, Miss Lane?”

I asked as she started to laugh.

She wrapped her arms around me as tight as she could and met her mouth with mine. I responded,

but quickly broke the kiss. I was excited for her to open the last present.

“You still have one more present to open,” I said as I handed her the last box.

“You spoil me,” she said.

I took her hand, brought it up to my lips, and softly kissed it. “You deserve to be spoiled.”

She opened the box and looked at the tickets. She didn’t say a word; she only looked at me with

tears in her eyes.

“Don’t do it; no tears,” I commanded. But it was too late; they had already started to fall. I took my

thumb and gently wiped her tears from her eyes. “I know your dream is to go to Paris; I saw it on the

list that you hid in your desk, and as soon as the doctor says that it’s ok to go, we’ll be on the first

flight there for however long you want to stay.”

She climbed on my lap and straddled me as she cupped my face in her hands and stared into my

eyes. “Thank you for all that you’ve done for me. You’ve made me the happiest person in the world,

and I’m never letting you go.” I smiled as I ran my finger along her face. I took her wrist and brought

it up to my lips as I softly kissed the infinity symbol on her bracelet. “It will always be forever you,” I

whispered. She leaned in and brushed her lips against mine. We stayed in bed until the afternoon, and

Ellery showed me how grateful she was.

***

Later that night, I arranged for a limo to pick us up and drive us to the swank bar that Mason and

Landon had planned for Ellery’s birthday. It was an eventful night of talking, laughing, and drinking.

Our waitress was trying to flirt with me and didn’t care that Ellery was right there next to me. When

we were about to leave, Ellery excused herself and went to the restroom. While she was gone, the

redheaded waitress came over and whispered in my ear. “I would love to have your cock in my

mouth,” she winked.

I looked over her shoulder and saw Ellery coming towards her. The angered look on her face told

me she had enough of this girl. She walked up behind her and tapped her on the shoulder. I started to

get nervous because I know Ellery, and she doesn’t put up with any shit.

“Excuse me, lady; what the fuck do you think you’re doing?”

“Listen, bitch; if you’re doing all three of them, then there’s no harm in letting me have a taste of

this juicy one,” she smiled at me. My look turned to panic as I saw rage in Ellery’s eyes. I was going

to stop this or she might end up in jail.

“Who are you calling a bitch?!” Ellery yelled.

I stepped out of the booth as Mason and Landon sat there with smiles on their faces. I grabbed

Ellery’s arm. “Come on let’s go,” I said as I quickly escorted her out of the bar with Mason and

Landon following behind us, laughing. I kissed her on the side of her head, “I can’t take you

anywhere.” She turned her head and gave me a stern look. “It’s not me; it’s you and these damn

women you attract.” I laughed as I picked her up and carried her to the car.

We arrived back at Ellery’s apartment. Celebrating her birthday with her was the best day of my

life, except for the day I found her standing in my kitchen. I walked into the room with a 12 inch round

cake, beautifully lit up with 24 burning candles. I set it in front of her and watched her smile as she

closed her eyes, made a wish, and blew them out. Her sweetness and innocence swept me off my feet

and left me with a feeling that I never knew I was capable of. Her smile, her laughter, and the way she

played with her hair when she was nervous were some of the things I loved most about her.

I handed her the knife to cut the first piece of cake, and she took it from my hand with her delicate

fingers. I stood there and stared at her as she cut each piece with finesse. She looked at me with her

ice blue eye; eyes that were mesmerizing and full of life.

“What are you thinking about?” she asked.

A smile fell upon my face as I answered, “I was just thinking about how much I love you.” The

words I was never able to say before, now flowed freely from my lips as easy as loving her did. She

leaned over, put a dab of icing on the tip of my nose, and laughed. She wiped it off and held her finger

to my mouth as I took it inside and licked it slowly. I saw the fire in her eyes like I do every time she

looks at me.

I can’t extinguish the fear that resides in my heart with her illness. I don’t want to believe that she

won’t get better, but there’s a tiny part of me that is scared shitless that she won’t. I put on a brave

front for her because she needs me.
