Me and my Benj

Chapter 22

Michaela's POV
Today's the day. The day we hear my fathers verdict.

"We the people of the state of Florida find Mr. Brisbane, father of Michaela Brisbane, guilty of child abuse."

I sigh. He's finally going to be out of my life.

"Mr. Brisbane," the judge says "you are going to be taken into custody until your sentence is decided. Jury, the state of Florida thanks you for your services. You're dismissed." And with that she got up and walked out.

I ran into Mitch's arms.

"We did it!" I scream into his chest. "He's gone. He can't hurt me." I say crying tears of joy.

"Yeah baby." He says. I love it when he calls me that. "We did it."

He rested his chin on the top of my head. We sat there for a while in each other's embrace. We were the last to leave. It was silent. But a comfortable silence because I was with him.

~time skip to the house~

I walked hand in hand with Mitch to the house. Jerome was out with Nicole. He was doing okay after the accident.

It was just us. Tomorrow we were going to adopt Marianna. This was quite possibly the last chance I would get to be alone with Mitch. And I wanted to show him how much he meant to me.

We walked inside and I immediately crashed my lips onto his and he kissed back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and ran my fingers through his hair. His hands found their way to my waist.

This kiss wasn't like our other kisses. The other ones were just passion. This ones full of love. And lust.

He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around him. He slowly carried me to the couch and set me down. He hovered over me and just stared.

"What?" I ask him.

"You're just so beautiful." He says with a smile. I smile too.

I pulled him onto me and kissed him. I tugged at the hem of his shirt.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

I nodded and bit my lip.

"I've never been more sure of anything other than how much I love you." I say.

"I love you too baby girl."

There's that nick name. Oh I love it.

He kissed me again and I deepened it. I tugged at his shirt again. He sat up and removed it.

Soon we did it. And I mean it. It felt like a dream. A good dream. A very good dream.

Heyyyyyy babes. So I'm soooo sorry for how short this is but I needed to update and I thought it was time for them to be physical. Especially if they're engaged and about to adopt a kid. If you haven't already please check out my other book My Love

I love you all!
