Doctor December: An Older Man Younger Woman Romance (A Man Who Knows What He Wants Book 71)
Page 8
“Good, because I know that wine won’t be able to hold a candle to your sweetness,” he says.
I let my head melt into the pillow and I close my eyes, but I don’t see colors, but I do see stars.
I see the star of my dreams when my head is up in the clouds and I see stars from the way his tongue is moving already.
“Seeing any colors?” he asks.
“Just one so far.”
“Which one?” he says in-between licks.
“Red…the color of my heart, my life, my love.”
He looks up at me from between my legs and then his big body slides back up in line with mine before he comes in from behind me, spooning me as we both look out the window.
Declan’s tongue is truly magical, but what’s even more incredible is his ability to read me. As much as I wanted to “see colors” right now I just want to be held by him and feel this moment.
To count my lucky stars before he shows them to me in a different way.
“It’s so beautiful out there in those mountains, isn’t it.”
“It is beautiful, but it could never compare to the girl whose name means beautiful, Bella.”
I roll my neck back and his lips meet mine as he holds my kiss with a panoramic view of Patagonia just out the window.
But the only thing I can see right now is red…the color of my heart, my love, my life.
Him.
“I love you,” he says as his lips separate just a fraction of an inch from mine.
“I love you,” I say softly.
And then our kiss resumes, so long that I lose track of time and fall asleep with his mouth on mine as he holds me in his arms.
Just where I belong…forever.
EXTENDED EPILOGUE
Declan
Ten more years later
“And then I was running after my puppy named Rusty. And then I tripped. And then I got this boo-boo,” the little girl named Jennifer says as she points to her knee.
“Oh no!” Bella says, raising her palms to her face.
“Uh huh,” the little girl says as she nods.
I look at the sheet her parent’s filled out and see that she’s five-years-old. It makes sense that Bella is so good with kids, considering we have three, so far, of our own.
“Can I take a look?” Bella asks.
“Yes, Doctor December,” she says.
It makes me so proud to hear people call her that. Doctor December. It’s the same thing they call me, because of course we share the same last name, and after eleven years she’s a doctor now too.
“Whoa!”
“Yeah, it hurts,” Jennifer says.
“I’m going to make it all better but first I need to make it hurt just a little, okay?”
The girl nods.
“Okay. This will sting a bit but I’ll be quick, and then you can pick out a bandage, okay?”
Jennifer nods again.
Bella dabs a cotton ball onto the top of a bottle of alcohol and rubs it on the girl’s cut.
I watch as she grits her teeth and tries her hardest not to cry. And she doesn’t. Little kids are so tough, especially some of these little girls we see. It makes me proud to know my kids display the same resiliency.
“Okay, great job!” Bella says and high fives Jennifer. “Now, let’s see which ones we have to choose from.”
Bella opens a plastic box which has a bunch of different bandages, but before she even has a chance to dig through them to show Jennifer what choices are available her hand is in there like it’s a cookie jar ten minutes before dinner time, grabbing the Aladdin one.
“Can I have this one?”
“You sure can. Want me to put it on?”
“I can do it,” she says.
I just shake my head. These darn resilient little girls. I love these little tigers.
Jennifer gets all fixed up and on her way.
“Five o’clock already,” I say looking at the clock.
“Today flew by,” Bella says.
“It sure did. Wonder how your dad is holding up with the kids.”
“Well, he’s got them for a couple more days and I think today was their zoo day. I bet they were a handful today.”
“Speaking of a handful,” I say as I put my hands on her breasts and lean in for a kiss.
“Doctor December, are you trying to…examine me?” she says.
“Is this against doctor patient relations?”
“I’m not sure how that works when both parties are doctors.”
“Hmmm,” I say. “Neither do I.”
I grab her by the hips and set her up on the examination table as our mouths devour each other’s.
We’ve been together twelve years now and I still can’t get enough of her.
And right now we’re both about to get the doctor fantasy.
That’s the way it works when you marry your perfect partner…your equal…and make her your own and she does the same to you.
There’s no better fit in the world for either of us than the other.
Doctor December and Doctor December…together forever and ever.
I may have been found in December, but I really found myself when I found her.
And now we share the same last name and a beautiful home full of kids.
Kids that we “doctor up” when they fall.
Kids that make our hearts beat so loud and proud you’d never need a stethoscope to hear them.
And that’s exactly what life, and being a doctor, is all about. Keeping the human body running so we can spend as much quality time as we can with the ones we love.
Lucky for me I’ve got the perfect family to love always.
My beautiful family and it all starts with my beautiful Bella.
