Chapter 18
Ellie
It’s Wednesday already, and we just got home from work.
We are in the kitchen prepping dinner and waiting for Cole’s mom to arrive.
I am so nervous to meet her. Not only am I meeting her for the first time, but we are going to be telling her we are expecting.
I feel like I am going to vomit any minute now, and I don’t know if it’s nerves or said baby.
I called my gynecologist to try to get in so we had an ultrasound picture for when we tell her, but they can’t get me in until the beginning of next week.
Cole has been trying to distract me all afternoon, since I told him I was nervous.
He says she is going to love me, but what if she doesn’t?
Just as everything for dinner is set out, the elevator pings with its arrival at our floor.
My anxiety is through the roof, and I feel like I am going to be sick.
Cole rubs my back as we walk toward the elevator.
The doors open, and his mom appears, and she smiles at Cole and gives him a long hug.
“Hi, Mom,” he says to her. They finish hugging, and he turns to me. “Mom, this is my girlfriend, Ellie.”
“Hi, Ellie. It is so good to meet you!” She is grinning ear to ear and leans in for a hug.
“Hi, it’s so nice to meet you too,” I say to her.
“I would say I’ve heard so much about you, but my son here likes to keep me out of his private life.” We both laugh at that.
“Mom, I just hadn’t met anyone worth taking up your time,” Cole says.
“Well, I’m excited to get to know Ellie,” Cole’s mom says warmly.
“Dinner is getting cold, let’s go eat,” Cole says.
We go to the table, dish out the meal, and start eating. “So, tell me about yourself, Ellie,” Mrs. Simmons says. I start telling her about my parents, where I grew up, school, and anything I can think of. Our conversation flows easily, and I find that I enjoy talking with her
A little while later, we have finished dinner and taken care of the dishes, and now we are lounging in the living room, talking. Cole looks at me, and I know he is ready to tell her about the baby. I nod, allowing him to tell her now.
“Mom, we have something we want to tell you,” Cole says.
“OK,” she says hesitantly.
“Well, I don’t really know how to tell you. So I am just going to say it.” He laughs, and I laugh with him because it is like how I broke the news to him. You never know how to share something unexpected like this.
“All right …” she says.
“We are going to have a baby,” Cole says.
“Oh! That’s great, son! I’m so glad you two are making plans for your future. It’s always good to talk about what you want early on in your relationship!” she says.
Cole and I glance at each other, then he looks back at her. “Uh, no, Mom. I mean, we are having a baby now. Ellie is pregnant, right now.”
It’s quiet for a minute before she says anything. “So I’m going to be a grammy?” she asks, smiling.
“Yeah, Mom,” Cole says, smiling back.
“Oh my goodness!” She jumps up and pulls us up with her, and we are spinning around as she hugs us. Suddenly, I feel like I’m going to be sick.
“OK, Mom. I think we should stop spinning Ellie around, she is looking a little green.” Cole laughs.
“Oh, Ellie! I’m so sorry. Sit!” she says, helping me sit down. “Let me get you some water.” She hurries into the kitchen.
Cole is smiling at me then he rubs his hands across my cheek. His hands feel cool against my face, so I lean into his touch.
“Thank you,” he whispers to me, and I look up to him, smiling. He leans down and kisses my forehead. Then his mom comes back, carrying a glass of water for me.
“Thank you, Mrs. Simmons,” I say to her as she hands it to me.
“Oh, please. You are having my grandbaby! Call me Mom! Or Claire if you are not comfortable with Mom.” She smiles at me.
“OK, I will.” And I smile back at her.
“Are you feeling better?” Cole asks me.
“Much.”
“I’m just so happy!” Claire says, hugging me tight.
“OK, Mom. Let’s let go of Ellie before she gets sick again,” Cole laughs out, causing both of us to laugh.
We settle back into the living room again and talk for another hour before Claire has to leave. We get up and walk her back to the elevator.
“It was so good to see you, son. Congratulations again on the baby,” Claire says to Cole as she hugs him. Then she turns to give me a hug. “And it was so good to meet you, Ellie.
“Thank you for making my boy so happy. I’ve never seen such happiness on his face,” she whispers while we hug. We let go, and she smiles at me.
“We will have to get together again really soon,” she says to both of us.
“We will, Mom,” Cole says as I say, “Definitely.”
She leaves, and we go into the kitchen and clean up the rest of the mess from dinner. Then we go into the living room to relax until we get ready for bed.
“See, I told you she would love you,” Cole says.
“Yeah, I loved her too. She is so sweet.”
Cole smiles and then pulls me closer to cuddle. We finish the episode of the show we are watching and then go to bed.
Cole
When we finally go to bed, Ellie falls asleep instantly. I’m about to doze off when my phone vibrates on the bedside table. I reach over and grab it, and it shows a text from my mom.
Mom: I’m sure you are probably asleep already, I didn’t want to wake you by calling.
But you need to know, I am so proud of you son.
You have done so well getting ahead in your career and now you are finally building your own family.
I always worried that what your father did to us would deter you from creating a family of your own, but I see how you are with Ellie and how happy you are that you two will be having a baby and it warms my heart. I love you, Cole.
Cole: Thank you, Ma. She makes me very happy. I haven’t been the same since I met her. I love you too.
I finally relax in bed. I never thought I’d ever settle down, but now I have the woman of my dreams in my arms, and not only does my mom love her, but Ellie is also having my baby.
I don’t know what I did to earn all this.
But I’m not going to take it for granted.
I just need to figure out how to talk Ellie into living with me and to tell her I love her. Time to come up with a plan.
The next day after work, Ellie and I do not have any plans, so we are hanging out around the house and relaxing.
It will be the perfect chance to show a glimpse of us living together, and tomorrow when we go out to dinner, I plan to finish convincing her to move in with me after telling her I love her.
Now that we’ve eaten and cleaned up, we’ve decided to spend the rest of the night watching a movie.
We go into the living room and sit on the couch.
After a few minutes of scrolling, Ellie says, “I’m going to go put on something more comfortable so I can relax more.” I continue to look for a movie while she goes in the bedroom.
Finally I find a movie. It’s ready to go, and I’m just waiting for her to come back to the couch to press Play.
I am scrolling on my phone waiting on her when she comes out of the bedroom wearing just panties and a tank top.
The tank top is tight on her skin, and she isn’t wearing a bra.
I cannot take my eyes off her as she makes her way to sit beside me on the couch.
She hasn’t looked up from her phone since she walked into the room, so she hasn’t even noticed how hard I am for her right now.
“Hey, I just got a text fro—” She finally looks up just as I am adjusting myself to try to find some relief from my raging hard-on.
Using my eyes, I make a trail from her feet, up her leg, over her thighs, up her stomach.
I linger on her breasts until I see her nipples harden, and then I make my way up to her face.
Noticing how pink her cheeks are, I finally look into her eyes, and I can see she needs me just as badly as I need her.
I lean forward to grab her hand and pull her down on the couch so she is straddling my thighs.
She grinds herself on me, and it takes all I have not to come right then.
She lets out a little moan as I trail kisses from her chest and up her neck.
I grab a fistful of her hair in each hand and pull her head back, and she moans, grinding on me again.
“Fuck, Ellie Girl. Do you feel what you do to me?” I ask her.
“Mmmm.” She moans again.
“You just had to come out here in this, didn’t you?
” I drop one of my hands from her hair to pinch the side of her tank top between my fingers.
I trail my hand up from where it was holding her tank top and over one of her nipples and circle it.
Then I pull the tank top down so I can get a taste of myself.
“Oh, Cole,” she says around a moan.
I lift her and shift so I can lay her down on the couch, and then I position myself between her legs. I pull her panties off and toss them across the room. Then I take my finger and rub between her thighs. “Look how ready you are for me, baby.”
“So ready.”
“What do you want?” I really want to know how she wants me. I love talk in the bedroom. I think hearing her tell me what she wants me to do to her alone would make me come.
“You. Just you, Cole.”
“Tell me, Ellie Girl. I want to hear you tell me what to do to you. Every. Single. Thing.”
“I want you to put your mouth on me,” she says as her cheeks start turning pink again.
“Where? Here?” I say, leaning down and kissing her shoulder.
“That’s a start.”
“Tell me exactly. Everything you want.” I continue kissing around her neck and shoulders.
“I want your mouth everywhere. My mouth, my neck, my boobs, my stomach, my pussy. Everywhere, Cole.”
I trail my kiss up from her shoulder up her neck and then her mouth.
It starts out as innocent kisses, but by the third peck, it’s getting more intense as both of us seem desperate for more.
I finally release my mouth from hers, then lay her down and start trailing kisses all the way to her pussy.
When I get there, I linger and look up at her.
She looks so sexy spread out in front of me.
Her head is thrown back over the pillow, and her eyes are closed, but that won’t do for me.
“I think you are forgetting something,” I say, getting her attention. She looks down at me with her lust-filled eyes. “There we go. Don’t forget, eyes on me while I take care of you.”
She keeps her eyes on me as I lean down and start circling her clit with my tongue.
She fights her eyes closing as they try to roll back in her head.
She reaches down and grabs my hair between her fingers and pushes my face into her even more.
She starts riding my face while still shoving me into her, and I moan around her clit.
“Oh, Cole,” she moans out.
I don’t know how this woman continues to get me harder than I ever have been before every single time we are together, but how much she enjoys me between her legs like this has me about to burst. I need to be inside her before I make a fool of myself like a teenager. I start to pull away, and she groans.
“It’s OK, Ellie Girl, I will take care of you, I promise. Roll over and get on your hands and knees.”
I start unbuttoning my pants and take them off.
By the time she is where I want her, I am undressed.
I kneel behind her and ram myself into her.
She starts in on her loud moans, and I am so close already.
I reach around her with one hand and start rubbing circles around her clit while I use the other to hold her hip to stabilize us.
“Mmmm, Cole,” she moans out again.
“Yeah, baby?”
“You feel so good.” She starts pushing herself back into me more, meeting my thrusts.
“Yeah? So do you. You take my cock so good.”
“I love the way you talk to me when you are inside me.”
“Oh, I know, Ellie. I can feel how much you love it. You squeeze my cock even harder each time you like what I say.” Just as I finish my sentence, she is squeezing me so hard I think I am about to black out.
I thrust harder, and I continue circling her clit with my fingers.
We are both so close. A moment later, we climax together, and we both flop down on the couch.
I’m lying on top of her still because I’m not ready to be done touching her.
“I don’t know how that gets better and better every time,” she says, her voice muffled from talking into the couch.
“I don’t know, either, but I can’t get enough of it.
” My cock twitches in agreement, causing her to moan again.
“You better stop with all that moaning before we have to go again before we’ve even had time to recover from this round,” I jokingly threaten, and she laughs.
I kiss the back side of her shoulder and slowly pull out of her.
“Come on, I’ll go get a bath started for us.
” I grab her hand and lead her into the bathroom.
