Coffee Mess

Worth The Wait

After putting a condom on, he gets on the bed again, standing on his knees, while I lift my pelvis and move closer to him. He understands what I intend to do, so he sits on his legs and I straddle him. With one hand, I place him at my entrance and with the other, I grab him by his shoulder to keep my balance, as I lower myself on him, while he holds me from my hips. I slide down slowly, looking at him, with my mouth open. When he's all in, I let out the moan I was holding and put my hand on the back of his neck. He starts moving slowly and when we find our pace, he leans in kissing me, moving his hands up my back, to the back of my head, and into my hair. I drop my hands to his chest and drag my fingertips to his ribs, fighting his tongue gently. After a few thrusts, I start moving my hips too, a little faster than him, so he gets the message and matches my pace...

The next day I wake up pretty early to feed the baby and to prepare my famous salad and a pie to take to Logan's mom. After I'm done with that, we get the kids ready, get dressed ourselves and leave.

When we arrive, Carly, Sanna and I help Lisa, Logan's mom, to set the table, as the guys are outside talking and playing with the kids.

"Baby? Savina is hungry and my nipples are no use for her..." Logan says, walking in the kitchen with the baby that cries bloody murder

"Mine will fall off any day now, though" I say indignantly, washing my hands and after drying them well, I take her and go to feed her in Lisa's bedroom

When I come back, the table is ready so I sit down with everyone, putting the intercom thingy next to my plate so I can hear Savina if she wakes up.

"Is she still waking up every 2 hours?" Carly asks me

"Nuh. Once she's asleep, she's out for 3 and a half hours straight since the 5th week"

"That's so Logan... He might have been difficult to put him to sleep, but once he was out, he was out for good" Lisa says

"Thank God for that, because I don't think I could go through what I went through with the twins. I mean, we were sleep deprived for nearly a year. Logan gave the exams to be a detective with actually zero sleep for 3 days, I was sleeping at work...it was an absolute nightmare"

"I remember you, you had lost so much weight. We were so scared" Scott says

"Exactly. I was so anxious about it, but thankfully she took after my king" I say, looking at Logan and then we lean in, kissing

"Thank God we have 2 boys and I'm not Prince Charming anymore" Logan says and we all laugh. After that, we start eating

After cleaning the table with the intent to bring out dessert, I go to the bathroom. When I get back, I see that they have been waiting for me to start eating the dessert

"Aww, guys, you shouldn't have waited" I say as I sit back down

"Well, Logan made us" Shanna says and I look at him puzzled

"Why is that?"

"Because I want to say something" he says casually

"Ok, say it because I've been waiting for the dessert since yesterday"

"Trust me, it's worth the wait" he says and turns his whole body to me, taking my hands in his

"Sandra. We've been together for so long. And I don't mean only the 10 years we've actually been together, but I mean the whole 17 years we've known each other. Even when we lost each other for 6 years, we were still together; At least that's what I understood when we found each other again. I think you know how much I love you, how much you mean to me and how much I love our family, these 10 years we've been together and those 4 that we have started building this family. I love that my parents and my siblings loved you since day one and that you're always happy to spend time with them. I love how you make every room you enter brighter. I love how you tease me and I fall for it every single time. I love that sometimes you're grosser than me. I love everything that makes you who you are. You are my world, my soulmate, my greatest weakness, but also my greatest strength. My best friend, my biggest fan, but also my worst judge. You have made me feel things I never knew existed. You make me weak in my knees every time you smile at me or call me Loggie. On the other hand, you make me wanna punch a wall so many times that I think I have mastered self-control to the point that I could be the next Budda or something like that. You drive me crazy and I so effing love it"

"Logan, what are you doing?" I ask confused when he stops to get a deep breath

"Something I wanted to do since the day we decided to be in a relationship"

"Logan, we've talked about this..." I whisper, looking at the others with the corner of my eye

"I know, I know. I know we said that marriage is a social construct that isn't supposed to change anything and that half of the marriages end in divorce, so doing it won't really do anything for us, but I think we've been together long enough to know that we're not gonna get divorced and that it won't change anything between us. We know that it's the real deal. And I really want to call you my wife and you to call me your husband, and for you to have a shiny ring to show off and smile when you look at it, remembering how I proposed to you in front of the most important people in our lives"

"No offense, but neither Jess or my dad are here..."

"We're here sweetie" my dad says and I turn my head towards the voice, only to see Scott holding his phone with the screen towards me and Logan

"We wouldn't miss it for the world, dummy!" Jess says from Shanna's screen

"Of course you were all onto it..." I say, rolling my eyes

"Problem solved, right?" Logan asks, playing innocent

"You're a little minx" I say, slapping his arm

"I am. I'm a minx, I'm a crazy s.o.b, but I'm also still madly in love with you and I want to put a ring on one of those fingers that know exactly where to push when I don't even know. Those fingers that know how to tease me-" puking noises from Jess and his siblings interrupt him for a moment "Hey, shut up! Like you don't do it too" he scolds them and I laugh with their reaction

"Ok, ok, I think we all got it" I say

"Right! So," he takes a small velvet box out of pocket "Sandra Williams, will you do me the honors of making an honest man out of me?" he asks, opening the box...
