They nod, returning to their boyfriends as we head toward the bar we loved to hang out at.
Chris squeezes my hand tighter, and I glance up at him. “We’re finally here, pretty girl,” he says with a smile.
“We are,” I reply, thinking of all we’ve been through to get here. “So, what happens now?”
Chris stops, his hands cupping my face as he looks at me with his beautiful brown eyes. “I’ve loved you for half of my life, Gabi. And now I’m ready to love you for the rest of it.”
Epilogue
It’s the little things
Four years later
My girlfriend is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever laid eyes on.
Seriously, the first time I saw her, she changed my life. I was twelve, obsessed with Spiderman and video games, and then there she was, and everything changed. I loved how carefree she was, never a worry in the world. She made me laugh, smile, and she turned my world upside down. It didn’t take long before I found myself stumbling over my own feet just to be near her.
I fell in love with her long before I even understood what love meant. I was just…hers. Always hers. From the moment I met her, it was always Gabi for me, even if she never saw me the same way.
And sometimes I still pinch myself, unable to believe that the girl of my dreams is here, naked, in my bed.
I playfully poke her cheek, a smile spreading across my face when she groans.
“One more minute,” she mumbles, grabbing her pillow and covering her face with it.
One more minute, my ass. Gabi would sleep all day if she could. I pull the pillow away from her face, and press my lips to her cheek. “Baby, you need to wake up.”
She groans again, burying deeper into the covers, and then I feel a sharp pain in my leg.
“Ow. What the—” I narrow my eyes at Gabi. “Did you just kick me?”
“You were disturbing my sleep,” she mumbles, her eyes still closed.
I chuckle, shaking my head. “You need to wake up.”
She lets out a mixture between a groan and a whimper, her face contorting. “Why?”
“They’ll be here soon,” I remind her.
She groans louder and shakes her head. “Send them away.”
I sigh, my hand smoothing up and down her back. She snuggles closer, and it might even be making her sleepier, but I can’t resist.
“I don’t think they’d appreciate that,” I say with a chuckle.
“They’ll understand,” she murmurs, shifting slightly so I can continue rubbing her back. “I really need to sleep. You kept me awake all night.”
I scoff out a laugh. “Me?” Unbelievable. Says the woman who rode my cock for hours to the point where we needed multiple water breaks, before she hopped back on.
She doesn’t say anything, realizing she’s wrong, and I let out a sigh. “Fine. Just so you know, they’ll probably end up eating all the pancakes.”
Her head shoots up, eyes widening. “You made pancakes?”
I smirk, knowing exactly how this will go. “Maybe.”
“With chocolate chips?”
“Of course. What else?”
