DANTE
After I take a quick shower,I walk Lunchbox one more time before he passes out on my chest on the couch.
I take out my phone and watch Essence in the bathroom looking through a small bag. When she starts huffing and puffing, I laugh.
She’s looking for her birth control. Unfortunately for her, her sister drives like a law-abiding citizen.
I, on the other hand, don’t.
I was speeding and weaving through traffic to get to her sister’s house before they did so I could look for her pills. Luckily, they weren’t hard to find, and I barely made it out of the house right as they were walking in. I grabbed a pair of her lace panties on the way out so I can have something else of hers until she decides to come back to me.
ESSENCE:
I’m not sure how you managed to get here before us, but I know you took my birth control, asshole. You really can’t wait to have more kids?
ME:
No. I can’t.
She doesn’t see my text, though, because she falls asleep right after sending hers.
Thankfully, Lunchbox is such a heavy sleeper that he doesn’t wake up when I lay him down onto his little bed that I bought him this morning. Now that he’s going to be living here, I want him to be comfortable and have everything he needs. When Essence comes back, we’ll finally be able to start our new life together, and the two of them won’t ever have to want for anything again.
I’m not a rich man, but I can provide for them as much as my salary will allow.
Starting with Essence. The other day, I went to visit a friend of mine who owns a used car lot downtown. I’d wanted to buy her a brand new car, but I just don’t have the budget for it right now. My friend gave me a great deal on a sedan that’s only five years old, and after driving it around myself, I know she’ll be safe in it.
Yawning, I get into bed with the panties I stole from my flower. My cock hardens again at the thought of her and everything we did tonight. So, I wrap the delicate lingerie around my member and jerk myself off, coming quickly from the friction of the fabric on my sensitive skin. When I’m done, I lay the nowsoaked piece of fabric on the pillow next to me and fall asleep to the image of her beautiful face.
CHAPTER 35
ESSENCE
Matthew wakesme up the next morning by jumping into my bed and shaking my arm.
“Aunt Essyyyyy,” he whines. “Wake up and come play with me!”
I groan and try to cover my head with the comforter, but Matthew quite literally plays tug of war with me. He’s surprisingly strong for being so little, and in the end, I surrender.
“Okay, okay. I’m awake,” I say with a laugh, reaching out to tickle his belly. He giggles and jumps off the bed.
“Come on, Aunt Essy!” Without waiting for me to get up, he turns and runs out of the room.
I have to peereallybad, but I don’t know if Ebony is awake yet, and I don’t want Matthew running around the house by himself. Getting out of bed, I put on a sweatshirt and go into the living room. Ebony is sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee and scrolling through her phone while Matthew plays with his blocks.
I sit down next to her. “Good morning,” I say quietly.
She doesn’t look at me as she says, “Morning? It’s almost noon.”
Her tone is curt, which means she’s still mad at me. I can’t say that I blame her, though. What I did was wrong, and I should have thought about that last night. I was too wrapped up in Dante and how good he was making me feel that I put my sister and nephew in a bad position.
“I’m really sorry, Ebony,” I say quietly. “What I did last night was stupid. I didn’t mean to do that to you and Matthew.”
Ebony sighs and sets her cup down on the coffee table. “I’m not mad at you for what you did, Essence. I’m just disappointed,” she says gently. “I’m not shaming you for wanting to spend time with Dante, but that could have been done some other time.”
I nod. “I know.”
We sit in silence for a moment, and then she looks at me with a cheeky grin.
