Chapter 43 - Spencer #2
It’s a daunting road ahead, but we’re both committed.
I won’t be his legal guardian at this stage, that’s Andie’s role to fulfill, but I plan to love and raise this little boy like he’s my own.
Where we’ll do that is a conversation we still need to have.
But once we have that. I think Andie will really understand just how far I am willing to go for her.
Sitting on the bed with wine in hand and the bottle on the bedside table, we pick at the charcuterie board that we made. The room feels cozy, intimate—a safe space for the conversation we need to have.
“Are we ready to address the real question now?” I ask, taking a sip of my wine.
Andie downs her entire glass like we’re in a race. I mean, I know the tension is there, but I thought the whole reason we set things up like this was to be a bit more relaxed.
“Ready,” she says as she refills her glass, the wine sloshing dangerously close to the rim.
“I just need to know, where do you want Henry to be raised?” I ask and her expression goes slack. She was probably expecting me to ask when we want to move him to Chicago.
“Where do I want to raise him? What do you mean?”
“Just that, Andie. Where do you want to raise him? I can do my job from anywhere. I don’t have to be in Chicago, so if you want to move back here, I’ll move back with you.”
I built my business to allow me the freedom to go where life takes me. So, my answer is simple: I go wherever Andie goes, and if she wants to raise the baby near her family, then I will pack up and move.
“Spencer, you live in Chicago. Your friends, your brother, everything you have is in Chicago. We’re going to raise him there.”
That was not the answer I expected.
“Are you sure? All your friends and family are here. Your house is here. Don’t you want to be near your family?”
“Spencer, that is exactly what I am doing. You, Maddie, Elle, and even Evan are my family. Sure, my parents and my sister are here, but I don’t want to raise him here.
” My mouth falls open, and I can’t get my eyes to settle on a single object in the room.
“I want a fresh start in a city that I have grown to love. I can sell the house, that’s not an issue.
I no longer have a love for this house anyways. ”
She has overcome every obstacle, every self-doubt, every negative influence, to do not what others want but what she wants for herself and Henry. She finally recognizes her worth and is putting her needs first.
Pride swells within me when I realize this because it’s hard to come back after people put you down and hurt you. She is more determined than ever to create a happy life. I simply get to be blessed with being part of it.
I’m so moved by her strength, her resilience, her determination to forge her own path that I can’t help but stare at her in wonder. I remove our wine glasses and the charcuterie board from the bed, taking her by her hands to stand her up.
“What are you doing?” she asks, noticing my gaze.
“What . . . what are you looking at?” she asks after a long pause, my eyes lingering as they continue to outline every part of her body.
“The most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.” Pulling her in, I press her body against mine, peppering her neck with kisses until I work my way to her collarbone.
“Spencer, there are guests here,” she protests weakly, her body already melting into mine.
“So, then you’ll just have to be quiet . . . right?” I continue planting kisses as my hands slowly lifts her shirt above her head.
I make my way down her body, softly kissing a trail to her hips. One button and one zipper is all that remains, holding me back from all of her. That’s quickly rectified as I inch her pants down and help her out of them.
Placing her body softly on the bed, taking my hands and sliding them up her thighs, spreading them for better access.
She lets out a gasp as my tongue slides up her center.
Her body is already squirming from the pleasure, begging for more.
She’s so reactive to me and my touch that it just fuels my urges.
Continuing to lick and tease the sensitive little bud, I add to her enjoyment by sliding two fingers all the way into her, curling them upward. “Oh my god!”
She’s not quiet at all, as she’s crying out through her building pleasure. Her fingers find my hair gripping it tightly as she squeezes her legs around my head, as she pops her hips up, forcing me deeper. I will gladly drown in her sweetness and die a happy man.
My fingers are trapped as she’s clenching around them, pulsating with her release. The minute her body relaxes, her grip does too, allowing me to pull away as I come up, positioning myself between her legs.
I give myself a few strokes, readying to slide into her. A smirk crossing her face as she watches.
“Don’t stop.”
“Don’t stop what, Sweetheart? This?” I give a few more pumps.
Her mouth drops open curling her bottom lip in, biting it. “Yes, that. Don’t stop.”
Her lust for more overcomes her, never taking her eyes off my movements, she climbs onto her knees. I watch—wondering what her next move will be. She opens her mouth, silently begging for me to finish into it.
The minute she takes me in her warm mouth, I feel myself tightening, wanting so badly to let go.
The feeling of her tongue swirling around the head of my cock makes it difficult to not give in to my release right now.
Her moans and hums around my shaft are addictive.
She must feel it since she takes her free hand and cups me gently, sending me over the edge.
It’s an experience unlike any I’ve had before. She pulls away after I fill her mouth with my cum. She gazes directly into my eyes as she licks every last drop with a look of pure satisfaction. I’m undone. This woman will be my forever.
“That was fucking perfect, baby.” I cup her face, sinking my lips to hers.
As I continue to stare at her, all I can think about is how even though she doesn’t know it yet, someday I will make her my wife. The thought alone fills me with anticipation for our journey ahead.
Everything that’s happened—meeting Andie, falling in love, now adding a child to our lives—it feels like the universe has a plan for us. And I will willingly let it take us where we’re meant to go.
