Chapter 7

The girls decided on some annoying princess movie from Disney. Chris and I both laughed and put the food on the coffee table of the family room. Chris put our cookies in the warming drawer against my wishes, but whatever. Chris disappeared for a few moments before reemerging with a bottle of champagne and two flutes.

"Champagne ma' lady?" Chris handed me the glasses and he opened the bottle. He poured the champagne and served us pizza.

Rory and Lux sat so quietly watching the movie. I was partially annoyed watching this children's movie. Always selling the idea of marriage and true love and some perfect guy to sweep you off your feet. It made me feel uncomfortable. Why would the people from Disney brainwash little girls with this garbage. This was ridiculous. I was livid, but I wanted to cry at the same time. Felt like a reality check- I'm getting divorced because my husband was cheating on me for at least a year.

Chris must have noticed my discomfort because he physically removed himself from his spot on the couch next me. He didn't come back for several minutes. I was embarrassed that I came over to his house with my daughter and I was that uneasy about watching some stupid children's movie.

The girls were becoming sleepy on the couch after stuffing their faces with as much pizza and cookies as they could fit in their little mouths. Chris reappeared when the girls were nearly out cold. He put his arm around my waist and didn't move or say a word until the credits rolled on the television screen.

"Should we take the girls to Royalty's bedroom?" Chris asked me and I agreed.

We each picked up our daughters and walked them upstairs to Royalty's room. Royalty's bed was a lower version of a California King. Perfect for a well-loved little girl. Chris gave me a set of Rory's pj's and we both stripped our daughters and dressed them for bed before Chris tucked in both our daughters and gave them both a kiss on the cheek.

We closed the door and walked into the hallway. "Guess I'm sleeping over." I stated in a sing song voice.

"It looks that way." Chris smiled and  led me towards his master suite. It was ridiculous as was the rest of the house. There was a full library in his master room. I'm not kidding a full library. The only thing- half was filled with books- the other half was filled vinyl albums.

"This is really cool, Chris. I'm never jealous of anything, but I'm jealous of your library." I began pulling vinyl records from each shelf to look at his vast collection.

"Thanks. It's been a big project to put it together and really find everything I want." Chris smiled at me. "Do you want a change of clothes to get more comfortable?"

"Sure that'd be nice." I answered his question still checking out his collection of music.

Chris brought me a stack of clothing and before he could even tell me where the bathroom was I began stripping. I wasn't wearing slutty underwear so I didn't care. The last time I wore a thong was like forever ago.

Chris laughed at me, "Cute undies. You didn't want to get changed in private?"

I pulled off my shirt and laughed, "I'm not wearing slutty underwear so I don't think it really matters." I pulled on Chris' shirt and then pulled my bra off before picking up my clothes and putting it on a chair. 

After  spending an hour looking through Chris' entire library I became tired. "I'm tired Chris."

"Let's go lay down Ally." Chris and I walked into the main part of the master suite and I was floored by how gorgeous his room was. The bed was was a black wash wood that stood out beautifully against the grey walls. His grey rug was woven with wild sheep hair and so soft. The lighting was dim and romantic and provocative photos displayed womanly forms in the most enticing way.

"This is a dream," I uttered above a whisper as I stepped foot on the sheep wool rug. "Give me your interior designer's number because this is perfection."

"I don't have one. I did it myself, Ally." Chris responded as I climbed into his bed.

"Seriously? This is amazing." I crawled into his bed. " Why do you think the girls planned to make us kiss today?" I didn't even mean to make the words come out but my curiosity couldn't be suppressed.

"Royalty's mom was a very easy woman. She died on the surgery table while she was getting her breasts enhanced for a second time. Royalty was 1 year old and her mother died. She wants a mom. It was 100 percent her idea I assure you." Chris touched my hand and looked up at me.

"That sucks. It must suck to not have a mother." I responded completely understanding how Rory feels. "It makes sense that she wants a mom."

"My mom takes complete care of her when I'm working and out of town. She's been asking me for a mom for more than a year." Chris' eyes were twinkling again, but with sadness. "I wanna give her what she wants, but it's not so easy."

"Well there's that whole divorce thing I'm going through that is a stressful mess. It's not easy just cause you find someone to marry."

"About that. I'm sorry that you heard what Josh said about you today. That was gross." Chris wouldn't meet my eyes. "I'm not gonna lie. The day I met you in that bar and you asked to borrow money I- I thought you were so beautiful with a gentle spirit. You could've asked me to dance naked in the middle of the street and I would've done it. I want you to know right now that today was the best day I have had in a very long time. I want to touch you and seduce you until you only want me and you forget about the asshole that cheated on you. Royalty was wrong to try and get us to kiss, but I can tell you with absolute certainty that it is the best first kiss I have ever had." Chris looked up into my eyes twinkling again.

"This is a lot to take in. Like a lot and-"

Chris interrupted me," I understand you're getting divorced and trying to figure out how you and Lux move on. I just want you to know that I'll wait until you are ready. Even if you have to date other people to get your ex out of your system."

"Chris?" I asked him.

"Yeah?" He looked up at me.

"Keep me warm tonight?" I asked, or maybe I begged him.

"Always." Chris kissed my cheek and climbed into bed with me.
