Mrs. Aird (Belivaird) (Book 2)

Chapter 3: Troubled mindset

"Fuck!"

I could feel my knuckles turn white from gripping the bed sheets. My whole body was shaking and my heart was beating right out of my chest. I gasped for air as I felt the pressure build up between my legs. Every thought I had before was surely gone by now.

I loosen my grip on the sheets and I felt Carol crawl up to me. I look at her as she hovers above me and smiles at me. I grab her face and pull her down to me and savor her kiss like it's the last thing I'll taste.

After we pull back, we don't say a word to each other but just stare into each other's eyes. It still amazes me how I get so lost into her ocean of blues and I can't seem to find my way back to shore.

I finally come back and smile at her, "You're amazing,"

She giggled and it was the cutest thing ever and my heart exploded. "I've had experience," she winked, which caused me to turn every shade of red, which made her laugh. She leaned down and kissed my nose and I pulled her to me and wrapped my arms around her.

She laid her head against my neck and we laid there, not saying a word, and I loved these moments. Not necessarily the sex, I still like that, but it's the moments that doesn't involve anything but being with each other.

Just laying in each other's arms, not saying a word, is the best feeling there is, because I know that she's safe, and I'm safe, and nothing can hurt us because we have each other's protection.

The thought that was gone before, surely came back and I couldn't ignore it this time. "Carol,"

She made a noise and I patted her back to indicate for her to look at me. She lifted her head and looked at me as I looked at her, "I need to tell you something, but I don't want you to freak out," she gave me a look but I ignored it as I took a deep breath, "I saw-"

I was interrupted by the sound of my phone. I picked it up from the bedside table and saw Richard's contact name appear on the screen. I looked at Carol and told her to hold on.

"Hello?"

"Terry! Hope I'm not interrupting anything."

I looked down at Carol as she had her head back on me. "Um, a little bit, but what's up?"

"Ok, so Steph and I have everything ready for tomorrow, and by the time Carol leaves for work, I will come by and we can go over everything,"

I nodded but felt stupid because he couldn't see. "Sounds good,"

I could practically hear the excitement in his voice, "Great! See you tomorrow!" he hung up and I put my phone back on the table.

I rubbed Carol's back as I laid there and thought about tomorrow. I'm glad to have Richard and Stephanie help with everything, because I couldn't do it on my own. I'm glad to have some help, and I really wanted this to be the best party ever.

Carol's birthday party.

She isn't really that into surprises, and I know that because I surprise her on her birthday every year, but it gets better because I love surprising her and the look on her face is what I love the most.

Every year, she's completely oblivious to the fact that when her birthday comes around, that I throw her a party, and I like that because she forgets that there will be a surprise party.

"Who was that?" she asked as her head was still laying on me.

I shrugged, "Richard,"

I felt her nod, "What did he want?"

I hated lying to her, but I had to in this case. "Just wanted to know what I was doing tomorrow,"

We lay there for a few minutes until she leans up and sits on me. I stare up at her as she's smiling down at me and I'm wondering what is going on through her head. She leans down and kisses me, but it's not a peck, it's a heated kiss that has my insides burning and my heart racing.
