14 - Nothing Else

I woke up the next morning with Steve's arm still wrapped around me and I smiled at this comfort and how content I felt. As I started to drift back to sleep there was a loud knock on my front door. I groaned and got out of bed realizing I wasn't dressed so I grabbed my robe, putting it on and rushing downstairs. I opened the door and saw it was Wanda standing there with Garrett.

"Hey..." I said confused.

"Sorry, John brought him over last night when you weren't home so we took him in with the boys. When you came home he was already asleep." Wanda said and I half nodded.

"Okay well...come on in buddy." I said and he walked in. He walked into the living room and turned on the tv.

"Sorry I didn't noticed the other car in the driveway until we were over here..." Wanda said and I just shook my head.

"It's fine. I will work on getting him out." I said and Wanda smiled.

"So who is it?" Wanda asked in a girly voice. Before I could answer Steve came walking down the stairs, dressed.

"Hey, good morning." Steve said walking up to me and giving me a small kiss.

"Good morning." I said. I then noticed Wanda looking.

"Wanda this is Steve, Steve my neighbor Wanda." I said and he shook her hand.

"Nice to meet you." Steve said.

I looked at Wanda and then back at Steve.

"Um...Wanda brought Garrett over. I guess John dropped him off last night." I said and Steve looked in the living room and saw Garrett sitting there.

"Why don't I go get us some donuts or something?" Steve asked. I smiled.

"Yeah that would be great." I said. Steve kissed my cheek and walked out. Wanda looked at me and waggled her eyebrows.

"So , you two have some fun last night?" Wanda asked and I just looked at her inviting her in and we headed to my room so I could get dressed.

"Listen, yes I did. I'm an adult and I finally found a guy who is sweet and caring and who cares for me and my well-being with John." I said and walked into my closet to get dressed in some jeans and a t-shirt.

"Listen, I'm happy you found someone. You deserve happiness. This year has been shit." Wanda said.

"And it keeps getting worse." I said as I was finished getting dressed and walked downstairs as Wanda followed.

"Come on you cant be talking about the arrest. Vision said it was nothing and dropped." Wanda said and I shook my head.

"Not that..." I trailed off and walked into the kitchen once I saw Garrett was okay and laughing at some show. I pulled an envelope from the one drawer I had.

"What's this?" Wanda asked. I nodded and had her open it. She read everything over.

"John is want to revamp the patch?" Wanda asked more in shock than anything but keeping her voice down.

"He is, I don't know why but he is crazy to think if I'm going to allow it though."

"Does he know it will come through you to approve?" Wanda asked and I nodded.

"He does. The day I got hurt, he found out a few days before that. He went to the bank to get it approved and they said since I was majority share holder they had to come through me." I said and Wanda groaned.

"Not that I want to mention this but do you think...John hurt you?" Wanda asked and I shook my head.

"No, John may be pissed about the majority holder thing but not enough to do that. Trust me I know my brother. He may be an ass, he may be gruff and just give off a shitty vibe but he wouldt hurt anyone." I said and Wanda sighed.

"Well I just want you and Garrett safe." Wanda said and I hugged her.

"We are, don't worry." I said.

"Well I better head home. We are taking the boys to the patch today. You gonna be there?" Wanda asked.

"Eventually I have to go talk to that woman who is getting married there. We have some designs to pick out and what she wants done. Would you be willing to help me set that up when time comes?" I asked and Wanda nodded.

"I would love to." Wanda said as we headed to the door. "See ya Garrett." Wanda said.

"Bye Wanda!" Garrett said and Wanda left. As she was walking out Steve pulled back in.

"Hey someone is bring us breakfast." I said and Garrett smiled at me.

"Your "friend" from last night." Garrett said and I rolled my eyes.

"I hate you sometimes." I said as we both laughed and Steve came walking up to the porch. "Hey." I said with a smile. Steve leaned in giving me another small kiss.

"I will never tire of that." Steve whispered breaking our kiss."

"Good because I don't want you to." I said and he smiled. He walked into the house and saw Garrett sitting on the couch. I walked into the living room with him.

"Garrett, this is Steve. Steve, my nephew Garrett." I said.

"Nice to meet you." Steve said.

"You dating my Aunt Autumn?" Garrett just asked.

"GARRETT!" I said annoyed and he just smiled at me. He was so much his father's child sometimes. I saw a lot of John as a kid in him when John used to be fun and could have a sense of humor.

Steve just looked and me and I groaned shaking my head.

"I mean...we havent discussed..." Steve said and I looked up at him.

"Are you wanting to?" I asked and he nodded. I handed Garrett the donut box and set the drink carrier down. I took Steve's hand and we headed to the porch. "You wanted to talk..." I trailed off.

"I just think what we have is really great Autumn, not even just because we slept together but because I always enjoy spending time with you even if it is only a few minutes when I stop into the pumpkin patch. Last night was amazing and I don't want to lose that feeling or lose you." Steve said and I smiled at him.

"I don't want to lose you either." I said with a smirk. Steve placed a hand on my check and slowly moved it around to the back of my neck as I placed my hands on his sides and he leaned down, passionately kissing me. I moaned in the kissing as I felt his tongue skim my bottom lip but then he pulled away with a small nip of my lip.

"So Autumn, you want to be with me?" Steve asked and I nodded.

"I do, I can't imagine anything else I could want right now." I said and he kissed my forehead.

"Me either." Steve whispered.
