He chuckled as he stood to leave.
“I’ll just say when love is involved, people are determined to protect themselves and/or others. But you know that already.” That had me snorting because that was my situation for sure.
I thought about Johnni potentially being caught up in some shit and I didn’t want that.
“Ay, give me a day or two to get copies of everything.” He was up and headed to the door.
“I appreciate you.”
“Yup, no worries.”
I put my attention back on completing payroll and the schedule but my mind was officially all over the place. The amount of people invading our little bubble was growing by the minute, and even if I didn’t care who knew, Lourdè would.
But that wasn’t my only concern. It was whatever BK now had on this fuck nigga.
The vibration of my phone broke my train of thought long enough to see Johnni had texted me.
Queen Lou: When you said safehouse I didn’t think I would be alone. How soon until you’re back?
Me: I’m finishing up now. I’ll be there within the next two hours. So you and baby need anything?
I had Bone on her at nights since not even a fly got by him.
Queen Lou: Just you, Chief, see you when you get home.Six little words that held so much weight had me packing up to end my day, making a few stops on the way.
An hour later I was walking into the beach house to music playing and the smell of food.
“Lou?”
I got no answer so I made my way through the house until I came upon Johnni in the living room with a blanket laid out on the floor along with a whole picnic setup like our date on the beach, except the TV had some type of PowerPoint presentation titled Queen Lou and Chief’s wedding.
“What’s all this?” I asked, even though I had an idea.
“We did the ring and cake and potential venue that day, but we need centerpieces, flowers, the menu, invitations. Oh and honeymoon destinations. I figured I could show you what I came up with.” I chuckled while I set everything down except the roses for her. I passed them to her awaiting hands, then took off my suit jacket.
“Chief, these are beautiful. Thank you.” She closed her eyes and took a sniff.
“You’re welcome, baby. Oh yeah, you’re already on honeymoon ideas? That must mean you’ve picked out the date to officially become mine.”
She nodded. “I’m already yours, Chief.” She flashed the diamond ring still sitting on her finger.
“You did all this and could’ve just said you missed me, Lou.”
“I missed you and didn’t like how we parted this morning. Can I show you how much I appreciate you for being my man and taking up for me against the big bad wolf?” she asked while crawling over to me. When she did, I noticed she didn’t have any panties under the noticeably short black night dress, which had my dick responding instantly at the sight of all that motion her ass had going on back there.
“And how do you plan to do that?” She got on her knees as she shot up at the perfect angle for my hardening dick.
“By giving you a hug. Did you know there are different ways you could hug someone?”
By now, Lourdè was unhooking my belt and my pants. I stood there admiring her while I played in her loose curls.
“Uht uht, I had no idea, baby. Tell me.”
“There are friendly hugs that typically involve one arm or extra space between you and the other person. Then, romantic hugs, those are nice. You get hella close, like this.” She wrapped her arms around my legs, pulling my groin to her face. I trembled at the slightest touch of her mouth on me, even if it was through my pants.
I gripped her hair tightly in my hand.
Lourdè moaned as she rolled her eyes.
