I was never going to have it all.
Confidence.
Friends.
Or Love.
Not now. Not ever.
Until him.
A spoiled brat.
UOP's ultimate asshole.
The hockey team bad boy.
Damon Saint.
He hates me,
Or so I thought.
One night. One. That was supposed to be it.
Unt...

8 years later
I always thought I would end up single and lonley. For the rest of my life. She changed that. Hanna did. Crashing I to my world when I needed her even though I myself didn't know I needed her.
Now I have the best of both worlds. A beautiful wife and a daughter that is hell bent on getting her way no matter what I try and do.
I keep my position at the foot of Brinely's bedroom where Hanna is currently putting out 8 year old to bed. Or more so her and her partner in crime.
Her cousin. Damien's daughter. The two of them together is like an explosion waiting to happen. Not that I'm surprised at all.
"Sweet dreams, Princess" Hanna smiles as she backs away from the bed. "Goodnight, Mom" she smiles back. I honestly didn't realize how lucky I ss until these two came in my life.
I didn't know I needed them until they were here. Hanna has kept me sane and rightfully so. Her green eyes peer up at me with a slanted smile as she closes the bedroom door behind her.
"Spying on us are you?" she teases with a grin. I shrug but a smirk pulls on the corner of my lips. Of course I was. My eyes are always on them even when I'm told to give them some breathing room.
I can't help it I'm protective of my girls and I always will be. Nothing in this world is safe. I might as well start carrying guns because when Brinley hits teenage years I'm going to be fighting off boys from her side.
The same way I did in university with Hanna. Or more so I just told them if they didn't stay away from her I would break there noses. Not that I can threaten a teenage boy. I'm not against it but I'm sure my wife would have me by the balls.
She already does.
Gripping her waist I pull her into my arms with a smile. "You ready for teenage years papa bear?" she smiles brightly with a grin on her lips. I shake my head automatically. No way.
I don't even want to think about teenage years and Brinley in the same sentence. Boys are going to learn to stay away from her though that's for certain. Her uncles are psychos and daddy isn't to far behind when it comes to his baby girls safety.
I would kill the paper boy if I thought he was breathing near her the wrong way.
I never thought I would be the type of dad to think about killing anyone but here we are. I would do it. In a heartbeat to keep my family safe.
"Let's go to bed, Cinderella." I whisper bringing my lips to the nape of her neck and leaving soft kisses.
With that I lead my wife to our bedroom on the main floor. If I could redo the last 9 years of my life with her I would do it all over again.
Down to every single detail. One because it would mean she's here in my life and two? Well what I just said.
Hanna completes me in ways I didn't know I needed until she came into my life. She's my rock. My lifeline. And she looks like an eternity in my arms every night.
The woman I chose to love and the woman I continue to chose above everyone. She's mine and she'll remain that way. Even after death. She'll always be my one true love.
I don't need another. I just need her. Forever if I want and I do want it. Call me pussy -whipped but in ways I am because I'd follow this woman anywhere.
The absolute best thing that every fucking happened to me and I wouldn't change a thing.
