*ADOPTED*

*ADOPTED*~Eighteen~

Chloe soon came back to her very empty and lonely house with me being gone, but she and her new boyfriend made the changes in the house very quickly, then they both drove to the store and picked up her car that Criss left locked up after my attack. I have been staying with Criss and Johnny in Serenity now for almost 2 months, Everything was completely healed except my ribs they were still very sore from always rehurting them every time I moved the wrong way. Criss was the perfect nurse taking very good care of me, the two boys and juggling his career all at the same time. But it was official in my mind, that I was falling in love with him, especially after he came to my rescue so many times, and became emotionally attached to me during the times of nursing me back to health.

Inside I was worried about hurting Klayton's feelings knowing how much he loved and cared about me before he left on his tour, but Criss must have talked to him in a very respectful manner about our new evolved feelings for each other after what happened to me, because while I was laying down upstairs watching Godzilla VS Megalon while thinking heavily about him, Klayton called me and told me how sorry he was for leaving me when I was in that kind of danger, because he thought that bastard would be too chicken shit to ever try anything.

Then he told me that he was happy for me that I was with Criss, and he was taking very good care of me and AJ. I tried to say it, but Klayton told me I didn't have to say or explain anything to him, because he was ok with it, then he added that he hoped I didn't mind that he found a lovely girl while he was on tour and she really wanted to get together with him, and she really loved Pheonix. I kissed him thru the phone as I told him how happy I was for him and Pheonix both and hoped that it worked out for him because he deserved all the happiness in the world.

After we talked for hours until our phones died, Criss came up into the room and asked if I was ok, I shook my head yes as I smiled at him and asked him where the two boys were at because it was very quiet in the house. Criss chuckled as he said his mommy came and kidnapped both of them for the afternoon as he crawled in the bed with me where he kept looking at me with lustful eyes but staying very quiet then he put his head on my shoulder and asked me if I would be his because it just wasn't right that I wasn't, especially when everything was falling into place perfectly. He loved my son, my son loved him, his son loved me, and he knew I loved his son. Both boys got along perfectly...then he looked up at me and slowly stated that he was falling deeply in love with me.

I wrapped my arms around him as I told him thru the emotional tears, that I fell for him a long time ago, but I was just unsure about telling him knowing that our first reactions toward each other were somewhat on the hate, hate scale as a relationship. Criss kissed me on the cheek and said that was all in the past, and now what was important was our future together and that he was going to make sure that it turned out to be a damned good one. Now that I was free and clear from that bastard ex of mine since they caught his ass and put him in prison without the possibility of parole. I leaned closer to him and asked him to snuggle with me because I was feeling needy and lonely. Criss snickered lightly as he whispered in my ear that he wanted to do just a hair more than just snuggling and it was the opportune moment for it now that both of our boys were away for the evening on an outing with their grandma.

I told him not hardly, as I looked down at him, but he had the most devilish look on his face as he reached behind him and clicked off the lights I told him to behave as I tried like hell to see where he was coming from in the dark, but all I could hear was his awnery lil laugh. Then as he crawled into the bed with me and slid under the blankets, I reminded him that my ribs were still tender. I felt Criss's soft velvety lips kiss mine as he told me he wouldn't hurt me not ever. That was the last verbal word I heard from Criss. All the rest of his talking came from the body language he generously shared with me. He threw me in so much ecstasy just by his gentle touches and sweet kisses that my body didn't know how to respond. It was by far the most of anything I ever experienced in my life...and that was saying a lot knowing that I was married before and had a baby.

He was true to his words, not once did he hurt me, he did, however, spin me thru so many pleasures I actually became dizzy from his passion and desire for me and my body...but that was true for both sides, for I very much desired him and his body too. We didn't stop making love until we both passed out from emotional and physical exhaustion, neither one of us knew what time it was either, because it was in the afternoon when we started, but with the room darkened and the door shut we couldn't tell, but I don't think at that moment neither one of us really cared either. It was a solid fact after that moment of togetherness, I never wanted to leave him...we must have been on the same page because in a half-sleep state Criss whispered to me that he never wanted me to leave him, that we belonged to each other now and forever.
