I step into the bedroom and look around for DJ. I don’t find her, but I get an idea. I pull out my phone and put on some music.
When I look up, she appears from the bathroom in her panties and the crop top from earlier. As I focus on her, I realize it’s not the same tee. This one has Brooklyn printed across the chest.
I break into a grin. She has this dreamy smile on her lips. The ring looks great on her.
She sobbed even more after I placed it on her finger. A perfect fit. DJ hasn’t stopped smiling since I proposed.
Actually, that’s not right. I didn’t miss how happy she was to be up at bat. We’ve talked about why she had to give softball up. I wish I could kill Oland again.
“Where are the girls?” she asks, looking around.
“Laoise insisted on taking them for the night. Tried to clobber me, she did.”
DJ begins to snicker at me. Her face lights up with her laughter. My heart swells to see the joy in her eyes.
How could I love this woman any more than I already do? She makes this life worth living. If she asked me to walk away from everything just to be hers, I would.
“What’s that look about?” she asks as she crosses the room and wraps her arms around me, placing a kiss against my chest.
“I’m looking at my fiancée. I’m in awe of ya. I always knew there was something special about ya.
“Now I get to watch that magic every day and with each day ya show me yer more amazing than I thought the day before,” I say as I wrap my arm around her.
“How did I miss it?” she breathes in almost a whisper.
“Miss what?”
“That look. Ya’ve always looked at me that way.”
“What way?” I knit my brows.
“It’s the look I’ve always associated with love. The way Angus looked at Mum. How yer da looks at yer mum.
“I never noticed it before, not before my eighteenth birthday. Now I can remember all the times ya looked at me with that look. It’s been in your eyes for years,” she murmurs.
“I’ve loved ya for years. My DJ, my love.”
“Cole, I need to tell ya something.”
I cover her lips with my finger as “Ordinary” by Alex Warren comes on. I don’t want to lose this moment. This song says all the things I can’t find words for right now.
I dip my head to press my forehead to hers. When our lips connect, I feel like she breathes life into me. The connection is more powerful than it’s ever been.
She runs her hands up my sides, bringing goose bumps to my skin. I continue to consume her lips as I turn her so her back is to my front. Then I move my lips to her neck and plant a slow trail of kisses against her soft skin.
Reaching under her crop top, I then palm her breasts and groan into her mouth. We continue to kiss as I knead her mounds. She whimpers into my mouth, causing me to pinch her nipples.
Releasing one breast, I glide my hand down the center of her body, over her belly, and shove it into her panties. I find her wet for me already. Groaning, I push my fingers into her.
She lifts on her toes and starts to rock her hips. It doesn’t take long before her legs start to shake. I drop to my knees and peel her panties down her legs.
Not able to help myself, I nip at her ass as I smooth my hands up and down her thighs. Pressing my hand to the center of her back, I bend her over so I can feast on her. When she begins to circle her hips in my face, I growl and slap her ass.
Adding my fingers to the party, I eat her pussy until she cries out and her knees buckle. Getting to my feet, I then lift her into my arms and carry her over to the bed.
Once I place her down gently, I shove my sweats down and climb onto the bed with her. DJ moves swiftly and takes me into her mouth. I sit my ass on my heels and reach to lift her hair out of the way.
“Fuck, baby. Just like that. Take your time.
