I sighed as I realized my ramblings were continuing.
“Want you to be with me. My woman. My girl. My wife.” My forehead touched hers as I gazed into her glassy eyes. “This time, you don’t even need to run over my bike to get my attention. You get everything. Just say yes.”
Her eyes were no longer holding the tears but her face was wet with all of her emotion. That terracotta skin was a nice shade of red and she never looked more beautiful.
“I’m doing the ugly cry,” she whined. “Shiz, are you serious?”
“Do I fuck around about shit like this?” I asked.
“I don’t know what to say,” Avery said as she looked around the humongous place. “I, just...I...”
That was when I cut her off and said, “Just say yes.”
My woman sighed a long and deep one, then she whispered, “Yes, Shiz.”
That was when I dropped to one knee, pulled the box from the inside of my cut and opened the box for her. It was big as shit, but she was worth it. Every fucking cent.
Avery screamed in excitement, then she started jumping up and down.
“Fuck, fuck...” she exclaimed. “I think I’m in shock.”
Looking at Avery from my position below her, I was the one in awe. She was beautiful, smart, crazy as hell, talented, and she loved me. Shit, I didn’t know if I’d live to see forty, but being with her until my last dying breath was worth it. She was worth everything and I’d fight any enemy, devil or hell itself to stay with her.
“That a yes, sweetheart?” I asked.
“Of course, it is.” She mumbled. “Yes, I’ll marry you.”
Fuck me.
As calmly as I could, I slid the ring on her finger, rose and kissed the hell out of her. It was frenzied and desperate, but then she pulled away.
“What?” I was still holding onto her.
“Shiz,” Avery exclaimed. “Somebody might walk in.”
“Avery, I purchased the property. Nobody is walking in here,” I told her.
“You already purchased it? Oh my gosh.” She let me go. “This is going to be our house. Where we raise our kids. Oh, Shiz.”
She completely abandoned me and the hard-on I was getting from the kiss and began to circle the place with thoughts and ideas about what should go where.
“Avery,” I called. “Where are you fucking going? My dick is hard and you’re talking about a sectional sofa.”
I was gesturing to my cock as the steel rod laid on the side of my leg. Very visible to any eye.
“Oh, honey,” she smiled and kept moving around like I hadn’t said a damn thing.
“Fuck this,” I said more to myself and took off my shirt.
I followed her to the empty room that would probably be a huge ass pantry. She had already left that area, so I yelled out, “Avery, where are you?”
A moment later, I heard, “In the kids’ bedroom.”
Fuck me.
That sounded so fucking good, I nearly ran to wherever her voice originated from.
When I found her, she was twirling around in a smaller room with damn near stars in her eyes.
“Oh, Shiz,” she sighed with more tears. “It’s beautiful. I love it.”
My body froze for a moment, as it seemed to be déjà vu. Then she sauntered up to me ran her hand across my chest and said, “I could never repay you.”
“Just marry me, Avery.” I told her on an absent mutter.
She smiled, then rose up to kiss me, but then she stopped dead center.
“Wait, what’s that?” Avery pulled back to look at my chest.
A little taken back from the disruption, I turned to her and looked to where her eyes were focused. It was my new tattoo.
“Shiz, that says my name.” Avery observed as her fingers hovered over the ink.
“Yeah, babe.” I nabbed her wrist and kissed it gently. “Going to be my wife and you’re already my life.”
She smirked and said, “What if I would have turned you down?”
This time, I laughed.
“I would have worn you down, stalked and bribed you. Just fucking moved in with you. Seduced you. Impregnated you and drag your ass down to the courthouse,” I told her.
Avery began to dissolve into giggles of laughter.
“You would do that!” she exclaimed.
“You already know I would,” I shot back.
“Well, I love it.” Avery focused back on the tattoo. “You’re my heart beat too.”
That was when my woman, slid to her knees, tugged on my jeans and began to show me what her mouth was capable of. Avery never disappointed as she had me fucking her face, then her pussy against the wall of our future kid’s bedroom.
We had to christen the place in a variety of ways. Once we left and made our way to Pepper’s – Kylie made an announcement over the loudspeaker.
“Hey Manor, the Guardians just want to show our love to Avery and Shiz. He proposed, and she said yes!” she screamed, but not over the crowd who absolutely lost their shit. She looked our way and said, “This one is for you two.”
Avery had more tears in her eyes as she listened to her friend, sing I Will Always Love You in our honor. Her hand wrapped around my bicep, and I let her. She was so deserving of someone that was good and would love her. I planned to spend my life, proving that I was that for her, our kids and our future. Judging by the noise that the Pepper’s crowd was making, they knew it too. This was home and it was family. Even after leaving for six months and coming back, it didn’t stop. The love, support and friendship.
At that moment, there was no fear of our enemies, our trials or even the shortcomings. We’d get through it, like family does. My woman, first, club second and everything else would be figured out when it was time.
One year later
I walked into the backyard, to see Avery swinging on the porch with our little girl in her arms, breastfeeding her. Her eyes were low, on our daughter and there was nothing but love to be seen with that view. I strolled to my woman, as she peeked up at me with a smile on her face. Abagail was asleep and there was no sucking happening. So, I scooped our bundle and went to let her rest in the crib before I joined Avery back on the porch swing.
Apollo had decorated our yard, so it was just what my wife wanted. The other ladies were mad at Apollo, because they were jealous of our expansive, state of the art, backyard.
“Can she stay that little forever?” Avery asked as I pulled her into me, while we rocked on the bench.
“No, sweetheart,” I smiled as her head landed on my chest. “She’s going to grow up, start dating and then I’m going to start shooting.”
“Oh shit,” she chuckled. “You sound like my dad. Who, by the way, is coming to kidnap Abagail. Like tomorrow.”
“I know.” I mumbled in her heir.
This had her pulling up to sit straight and staring at me in awe.
“You know?” she asked.
“Yeah, I told him to. We need a break. I’m taking you out.” I moved her run-away curls out of her face. “I’m not arguing about this, Avery. We’re going for a long ride. You’re going to wear that skirt I like, on the back of my bike, then I’m gonna fuck you on it with those heels digging in my ass. That’s final.”
She scoffed, then folded her arms over her chest.
“That sounds sexy and all, but he’s not taking my daughter. They have to go over the rules and regulations for her. You don’t understand, she’ll be cussing when she comes back to us. My dad has a foul mouth. And my mom will have her ready to fight all interracial wars. Believe me. She’s militant.”
I burst out laughing at her assessment of her parents. She wasn’t wrong.
“That sounds good to me. Wars need to be fought and I curse like a sailor. So, she’ll be a cusser, no doubt. Fuck, you do too.” I reminded her.
“We can’t in front of Abagail,” Avery explained.
“Good luck with that shit,” I said as I put her on top of me. “Tomorrow is happening, even
if I need to drag your ass with me.”
Avery looked at me in the eyes and pouted, right before she added, “I don’t want to leave her.”
Tears threatened to come to her eyes, but I kissed her nose and said, “Yeah, but we gotta do it. You gave me the world, Avery. I lived to see it. We’re here and if this is a dream, baby. I’m going to ride this mother fucker out. With my main girl and my little one. Understand me?”
“Yes,” she said with her bottom lip poking out. “I’m riding with you.”
“That’s my girl.” I pecked her lips again. “Love you so fucking much.”
“Who would have thought...” Avery mused against my lips.
“Yeah, the crazy woman who ran over my bike,” I reminded her. “I’d marry her, have a baby with her and never let her go.”
“Right,” she laughed as she turned over her wrist to look at her tattoo of the same one that I have but my name is written with the heartbeat signal at the front and back, etched in a heart.
“That’s forever,” I remind her.
Avery taps my chest, where my tattoo is, and said, “I know, Shiz. Even though it feels like a dream, I’ve pinched myself too many times, so I know it’s real.”
“Yeah,” I reply with our foreheads touching. The sun went into hiding until the next day, shadows cast over the yard with acoustics and solar lights embedded within the design and we stayed there, on our dream porch, in each other’s arms until Abagail started to cry. Then, like any family, we scrambled to get to our dream baby, in our dream house and continued to live our dream life.
Tomorrow, we’d take our dream ride, on the same bike that started it all.
The End.
I hope you enjoyed the crazy Avery and Shiz. They are super cute.
