UNEXPECTED ✰ COLIFER

Chapter 32 ✰ Her Handsome Cowboy

Colin's pov

The next morning I woke up with a smile stuck on my face. I opened my eyes and smiled, even more, when I saw Jennifer's head resting on my chest. She peacefully breathed in and out. I played with my fingers through her blonde locks and gently massaged her scalp. Just after my kidnapping, it was the only way to calm her down at night when she had her nightmares.

A smile appeared on her lips. 'Good morning handsome'

I pressed a kiss to her hair. 'Good morning beautiful'

She slowly opened her eyes and stared straight ahead, her finger circling over my abdomen. 'What are you thinking of?' I asked curiously.

'How frightened I was yesterday and how quickly you made me forget that'

I pulled her even closer to me. 'I'm sorry that had to happen.'

A faint smile appeared on her face. 'It's okay. I'm just glad you're still here'. She rolled over to her other side so her back was facing me. I rolled over as well and closed the gap between us by spooning behind her.

'When do we have to go back to the kids?'

I pressed my lips to the crook of her neck. 'Not today'

Her eyes widened. 'What? Why not?'

'My mom offered to babysit for some more days, so I arranged some more time at the hotel. That's why it took me so long yesterday but I wanted it to be a surprise.'

She turned in my arms and looked at me. 'Can't we stay here forever? Together in this perfect hotel room. Just you and me.'

I smiled as I wiped a strand of hair from her face with my thumb. 'We have children to take care of, Jen.'

She sighed. 'I know, but sometimes I miss the time we had with just the two of us'

I raised my eyebrow questioningly. 'Do you regret it? Would you rather have children later or not at all?'

She grabbed my face between her hands and stroked my stubble with her thumbs. 'The most beautiful man on earth is the father of my children. How can I ever regret that?'

I pressed a kiss to her head. 'Because you deserve the world'

Jennifer smiled as she crept closer to my body. 'You're so cheesy'.

I gave her a playful slap on her ass. 'You better watch what you say, lady. I can always change what I had in mind for today'

She pushed herself up and leaned on her arm. 'What are we going to do today?'

I quickly pecked her lips and stood up. 'Dress yourself in a long, not too tight pants and put on your boots.'

'What are we going to do, O'Donoghue? You know I don't like this' she muttered as she stepped out of bed and started gathering her clothes.

I grabbed the first long pants that I could find and pulled them on. While I was fastening my belt, I turned to her. 'Have I ever let you do something you don't like?'

She didn't answer my question right away but went on to find the right clothes. When she was dressed she looked at herself in the mirror. I stood behind her, wrapped my arms around her body and looked at her reflection. 'Perfect' I whispered softly in her ear.

'You look pretty good too, sir'

I looked doubtfully at our reflection and raised my eyebrow. 'Something is missing'

Jennifer looked at me in amazement. 'What is missing?'

'This' I said as I put a cowboy hat on her head and placed one on my head as well.

'What are we going to do, cowboy?' she asked as she wrapped her arms around my neck and looked intently at me. She knew only too well how she had to get information from me. I escorted her to the large window in our bedroom and opened the curtains. She looked at what was going on outside, but her enthusiastic gaze changed quickly. 'I only see two horses'

'Exactly'

She looked outside again and then back to me. 'Are we going to ride on those horses?'

'If you dare'

'Of course!' She said happily before she pressed her lips to mine. 'How did you know I wanted to do this?'

'Your sister gave me a little hint. She said that a trip with horses has been on your bucket list for years, but that you never had the time to do it. Now that we're alone I thought that a two days trip might be a nice thing to do.'

Her eyes widened in surprise. 'Two days?'

I nodded. 'We leave in fifteen minutes with a professional rider. Around the evening we set up a camp where we eat and spend the night. Tomorrow we will return to the hotel by taking a different route and we'll arrive back here in the evening. '

'And then we have to pick up the children?'

I wrapped my arms around her waist and let my hands slide to her ass. 'No, then we take a wonderful bath and make love all night before we pick up our little dragons. Sounds like a plan, right?'

'Actually, that sounds like the best plan ever' she said while sliding her hands under my shirt and gently kissing me. She deepened the kiss and pushed her body more firmly against mine.

'Hm, Jen... We'll have to leave in a few minutes' I mumbled between kisses.

She gently pushed me away. 'I know. I know. You're just... irresistible.' She leaned forward again to kiss me, but I gently stopped her. 'Jen...'

She pouted her lip. 'Colin... can't we leave a little later?'

'What do you want to do then?'

Before I could answer, I bent forward and threw her over my shoulder. A scream escaped her mouth. 'Colin! What are you doing?'

'As I said earlier, my lovely wife, we have to go. The cowboys are waiting for us'

She laughed hard as she slapped my ass. 'Come on horse!' she giggled as she slapped my ass a few more times.

I jumped up carefully and neighed. 'Oh cowgirl, I'm on my way!'

Before I would fall, I put her back on the floor. She wrapped her arm around my neck and straightened my cowboy hat with her other hand. 'One thing is for sure...' she began.

I raised my eyebrow. 'What is for sure?'

'You're my handsome cowboy'
