Shopping done, us women go our separate ways. Tammy drops me at my house and I spot Craig and Pooh in the garage through the open doors. I walk that direction, carrying my shopping bags, and Craig comes running. I brace as he crashes into me, giggling. I lean down for some hugs and then we walk together to the garage where Pooh is standing beside his bike smiling at us. His smile has the ability to turn my insides to mush and my girl bits to dampen.
I stop when I’m chest to chest with Pooh and he leans down and gives me a taste of his mouth. Yum. He pulls back but keeps his face close and asks, “Buy me something sexy, baby?”
I grin instantly because, yes, I did! But he’s got to wait until Craig is asleep to get a glimpse of his gift. I enjoy watching his eyes heat up knowing I put that look in them. Our moment is broken when Craig pipes up.
“I’m standing right here!”
We laugh and put some space between us. Pooh ruffles Craig’s hair and Craig rolls his eyes at us.
“Ask her, Pooh! You said you would. Please?”
“Ask me what?” I question while looking up at Pooh.
“Craig wants a ride on my bike. You okay with that?”
My first gut instinct is to scream no long and loud and then grab Craig and run. But my common sense knows that Craig is safe with Pooh under any circumstance.
“Are we talking a ride around the block or to Sturgis and back?” I ask, jokingly.
“Around the block, Pips. Geesh,” Craig exclaims while rolling his eyes at us again.
“Helmet? You can’t ride without one,” I tell Craig and watch his face fall.
“Damn it!” Craig groans.
Pooh reaches down and opens one of his bike’s saddlebags while grinning at Craig. He pulls out a child’s helmet and it matches his own except in size. Craig’s squeal of delight is earsplittingly loud. He rushes to Pooh’s side and waits impatiently while Pooh places it on his head and fastens it. Craig whirls my direction and the smile on his face melts me instantly. I know by the look on his face that it will be hell trying to get him to ever remove that helmet.
“You look so handsome! You two will be getting a lot of female attention so make sure Pooh behaves and comes back here for dinner. Okay?”
“Will do, Pips! See you later!”
Pooh picks Craig up and sets him on the bike before he mounts the bike behind him. I pull my camera out of my purse and start taking pictures before switching to video mode. My two guys are too cute sitting on the bike with matching helmets. I continue videoing them as Pooh speaks quietly to Craig about how to ride and what not to do. Craig nods his head enthusiastically and his grin grows when the bike roars to life.
After they turn onto my street and disappear from sight, I set my bags down on the steps and walk outside and position myself near the street. I want to video them coming up the street, so I get their faces. A few minutes later, I hear the bike and when it hits my street, I start filming. Instead of pulling back into my driveway, Pooh drives by slowly while Craig imitates Pooh and gives me a two fingered wave. His giggles can be heard over the bike’s engine.

After getting ready for bed, I walk to the open bathroom door and lean against the doorway. Pooh is in bed, leaning against the headboard, and has the covers just touching his hips. There is plenty of naked skin to ogle while standing here, so I take a moment to do just that.
“Get over here, woman,” Pooh growls when he spots me in my new lingerie. I take my time getting to his side of the bed and smirk down at him when his eyes finally leave my clothing and rise to mine.
“This is only a part of your surprise,” I tell him quietly.
“Nothing else I need, Pips. You, in that nightie, is all I’ll ever need, babe.”
I pull my hand out from behind my back and drop three silk scarves in his lap. They are the same dark wine color as my baby-doll nightie and matching barely-there panties. Pooh draws in a deep breath and, before I know what he’s up to, grabs my hips, swings my body over his, rolls with me and I land on my back with him on top.
“You okay with what I want from you tonight, Pips?”
“More than okay, baby. Give me anything you want, because with you, I’ll want it all too.”
Best night ever!
Pooh
Since the morning that Cal showed at Pippa’s, things have been quiet for her, New Horizons and the club. And it’s making me nervous. It’s always been my experience that shit always hits the fan after a period of letting your guard down. I’m not letting my guard down in the least. Luckily, my club brothers are being tolerant of my continued vigilance. They take turns hanging at New Horizons when I can’t be there to ensure that Pippa, Tammy and Craig are safe. I owe them huge but I know they will never ask for payment for something like that.
Pippa has set up appointments for Craig with Bella’s child psychiatrist and I think that’s a great idea. We want to get ahead of any problems he may have with his mom abandoning him and his dad abusing him. He seems like a well-adjusted kid, considering all that’s happened, but we want to have someone trained watching for any underlying issues that we may miss.
