Penelope's POV

It's our date today! I'm so fucking excited. Let me just double check with Cherry about today.

Me
'Hey Cherry, just double checking
about today. You're in charge
today of the cafe, Lilly is opening
the cafe today. And George is closing
today, you sure you don't mind me

Cherry
'Yes doll, enjoy your day with your man, I got everything under control. Now go get some dick.'🍆😉😘'

Me
'Cherry I'm going to kill you tomorrow'

Cherry
"You love me, bye now'

Me
'Bye🖕'

I place my phone in my pocket and sigh. I walk out my door and go next door to knock on gray's door. I hear a door open but not gray's door. I already know who that is. "Oh hey neighbor! How's it going with Grayson? Is he single yet?" I sigh out loudly and turn around. "What do you want Lucy?" Her smile drops. "What I want is that man in that apartment but no, you just had to come up and snatch him" before I can open my mouth to answer her, the door behind me opens and I turn around to face him. "Lucy I'll never, ever date you or belong to you even if me and pen do break up, which we won't. I love her too much to let her go"

He turns to me. " Come in my love. I've got a special day planned for us" He gives me a wink and leans down and kisses me briefly. I hear a gasp behind me but I ignore her, his lips feel too good to stop but sadly he pulls away quickly. He grabs my hand and gently pulls me inside his apartment. "Bye now" He says to Lucy and closes the door on her. I giggle as he pulls me back into him and holds me tight against him. "Fucking finally, alone at last" he kisses my neck and I smile.

I pull away from him and walk into his room and sit down, facing him. He licks his lips as he looks me up and down. "My fucking god, you are so beautiful" I blush and smile. "I'm still not used to so many compliments even after four years of you doing this" He chuckles and walks over to me and holds my chin up, leaning down and kissing me softly but briefly.

"Better get used it, now that we are together, un-officially, I'm saying all the things I have wanted to say all these years without having a filter" I pout and he smiles. "What? Oh, you want another kiss, don't you" I nod. He leans down and kisses my cheek. "Wait until later" I groan and fall back on his bed. "You're being a bitch Grayson" He chuckles. "I'm being a bitch?" I nod. "Yes! You won't even give me a kiss, you finally get to kiss me on my lips and everywhere but you won't!"

He groans softly and go on top of me and leans down to my ear. "I do want to kiss you baby, but I'm saving all my kisses for our date and for when we are official" I wrap my arms around him and he goes next to me and pulls me on top him and we just hug each other. "I'm tired" He kisses my forehead. "Sleep, I'll be right here when you wake up" I nod and kiss his neck, his grip on me tightens. "Sunshine" He says with warning in his voice, I smirk and look up, feigning innocence. "What? I can't reach, It's not my fault you're a giant" He smiles and spanks my thigh not too hard. "Shush and go to sleep" I blush and move closer to him and I fall asleep.

Grayson's POV

She's so beautiful and she's finally mine. I thought she would never be mine. I smile as a giddy feeling rises in me as I remember Tuesday after she left for work.

FLASHBACK TO TUESDAY

I walk into my apartment and turn around. "I'll see you later sunshine" She smiles up at me and nods and leans up for a kiss, which I quickly lean down and meet her. Her lips are so soft, just as I thought. We pull away and she walks away. "Bye, love you thumper" I smile. "Love you too sunshine" I close the door and lock it. I turn around and walk into my kitchen. "Holy fuck!" I start laughing. "That really happened!" I start jumping up and down and laugh. "She loves me back! She loves me! Fuck yeah!" I stop jumping and grab my phone off my counter and I call Travis, it rings and rings until he picks up.
