Ever After

Chapter 9: Tradition

*One Week Later*

I gasp before moaning softly as he sucks a love bite into my neck. He holds me close to him and I tangle my fingers in his hair. He presses a gentle kiss to the mark that will start to form in minutes. "Mine." He nudges his nose against mine. "All mine." We kiss and the room falls silent. The sun was hours from coming up and we hadn't been to sleep yet.

"Jackie..." I speak softly and he hums. I don't say anything I just watch him with a smile. "I love you too baby girl." I snuggle close to him. "I don't plan on sleeping you." He pulls me closer but keeping the thin sheet wrapped around me. "Like anyone could sleep with you laying awake next to them." I bite my lip softly. "Can we order pizza?" He laughs. "I don't think anyone's still open love. It's...3 in the morning." I frown. "My tummy wants pizza." He laughs cupping my face.

"Let me see what I can do." He grabs his phone and he dials a number. "Hey Freddie it's Jackson. Yeah listen you don't know of any pizza places still open huh?" He listens for a second nodding. "Oh really? That's great. No no you don't have to. Well thank you. Okay." He hangs up. "Freddie knows a place. He's gonna get my baby some pizza." I lay my head on his bare chest.

"Who's Freddie?" He plays with my messy tangled hair. "He works for me. He's one of those guys who runs errands for me." I frown. "You didn't have to wake him for me." He lifts my face. "Though you are worth it I didn't. He stays up well into the night. Besides he is like devoted to me. He reminds me of my father. Always giving me advice and helping me when I have a problem." He looks up at the ceiling. "I miss him." I pout. "Maybe we should go visit his grave..." He shakes his head. "No no!" I frown. "Jackie I didn't mean to upset you." He presses a gentle kiss to my lips and then to my nose and then my head. "It's okay love. I just don't want to talk about it." I nod laying my head flat on him. He picks up a hair band pulling my hair into a messy bun.

I just listen softly to his heart beat and the way he breathes. "I'm sorry for snapping at you." I peck his chest lightly. He touches my face. "Hey?" I look up at him and he kiss me. Slowly but passionately and that kiss ends up with me pend to the mattress under him. "I love every inch of you so much." He says trailing his lips. I reach up grazing my fingers over his toned chest biting my lip. "Hey I got lucky too." He attaches his lips to my jaw and I take in a breath. "No where near as lucky as me." He bites down and I gasp. "Come on baby." He whispers and I let my breath go humming before moaning lowly. "Atta girl." He moves down to my collarbones and I grab some of his hair. "Jackie..." He glances up at me and I pull my lip between my teeth. He pulls back hovering above me breathless. "You look so beautiful." He whispers before smashing his lips to mine. I wrap my arms around his neck rolling so he's under me and my body's pressed to his.

He lets his arms snake around me. I trail my lips to that sweet spot in his neck. "Mr. CEO is gonna have a very nice hickey when he pops back up at work." He groans as I suck harshly nibbling softly as well when I pull back his neck is red and I trace my index finger down his bare chest. "What is it love?" I smile. "Look at us Jackie." I say holding the sheet to my chest. "I'm just fine with looking at you." I sit up on his lower torso. My panties and his boxers are the only thin material that is covering our bodies besides the sheet. "That's not what I meant Jackie." He smiles.

"Well I've got an amazing job, a gorgeous wife, a beautiful home, and the most loving kids anyone could ask for." I hum with a wide smile stretched across my face. "We made it Jackie." He holds my hips. "Of course we did baby. I told you we would." I huff. "We've been together for six years. You know not that I'm complaining but we've never celebrated...this." He smirks. "I think we've celebrated it enough for one night. Unless you're up for another round." I laugh. "That's not what I meant but no I'm good Jackie." He pulls me down against him pecking my lips. "I love you." I hum. "I love you too." He gets a text and he sighs. "Pizza is here." I jump up grabbing my bra from the floor and putting it on. I grab my robe and he steps in front of me when I go for the door. "What do you think you're doing?" I frown. "Going to get my pizza."
