Somebody to You

Ch. 29

Nick

I was waiting outside the restaurant with the limo, when Dee & Chloe came out. Chloe looked around for Joe & her forehead wrinkled when she didn't see him.

"Joe said he would meet you back in your room. Congrats sister-in-law." I smiled as I grabbed her in a hug. "You're stuck with us now." I laughed when I let her go.

"No turning back, now." She laughed, then hugged Dee. "I love you guys & I really hope you will stay together. I think you're amazing together." Chloe squeezed my hand before getting into the limo.

I watched the limo drive away, then turned to Dee & took a deep breath. "Now what? It's early. You want to go do some gambling?" I asked her.

"Well, I shouldn't waste this outfit. Or this hair." Dee smiled at me. "Or this makeup." She chuckled.

She was absolutely right. Her hair hung in sexy waves down past her breasts, that looked amazing in the tight black dress she was wearing. "You do look amazing." I said, then made a tasty sound with my tongue.

Dee shoved me, slightly, rolling her eyes. "Let's go have some fun." She said as she put her arm through mine, grabbing my arm with her hand. I led her to the casino that was next door to the restaurant.

Dee & I gambled a little & stopped when we were ahead a few hundred dollars. We took our drinks & went to sit at the bar, nearby. We talked about Joe & Chloe & their wedding, then I excused myself to go to the restroom. When I came back, I saw a man sitting next to Dee. He was facing her, leaning into her & I wanted to grab him & throw him off that chair. As I got closer, I heard him & his lame ass pickup line.

"Can I buy you a drink?"

"I'll be buying her next drink, buddy." I said, standing behind Dee. She glanced at me & rolled her eyes. The guy's eyes were wide as he cowered a little. My MMA bad ass persona never went very far. I could bring it back whenever I felt necessary.

"Oh, sorry, man. I didn't see a ring. My bad." His hands were raised as he got up & walked away.

I saw back down in my chair & Dee was watching me with a tiny smirk on her face. "He didn't see a ring." She snickered, taking a sip of her drink, after she flashed her hand.

"Funny." I chuckled as I lifted my drink to my mouth. "Was that some sort of a sign?"

Dee shrugged her shoulders, turning toward me a little & crossing her leg over her knee. "Just another example of why you get married. So other people know." Her eyebrows went up in a cocky manner.

I shook my head. "You really think he wouldn't have hit on you if he had seen a ring?" I let out a short but loud laugh. Dee just stared at me, her eyes rolling a little. "Look at you." I motioned with my hand to her body in that dress. "You're hot. Guys are gonna hit on you no matter what jewelry you have on your fingers."

Dee sipped her drink, smiling. "If you say so."

I leaned closer to her, my hand going to rest on the small of her back. I kissed her bare shoulder a few times. "It wouldn't have stopped me."

"Good to know you don't care about that kind of stuff. You don't care about the sanctity of marriage, I got it." She sighed, then turned away from me. "I'm getting tired. I'm gonna go to our room."

"This isn't our hotel, sweetie." I yelled to her as she started walking away from me.

She turned around, smiling as if embarrassed. "Oh." She giggled, then almost fell over. "I'm buzzed a little. You gonna walk me to my room?" She batted her lashes at me.
