Wicked Love (D'Angelo Russell)

17

Tuesday, May 1st, 2018

Today is our baby shower and I'm super excited. To know that we're having a boy, I'm ready to spoil him and shower him with thousands of kisses and tons of love. I'm in love with him already.

"I'm convinced that when he arrives, I will become invisible." DLo exclaimed.

"Aww DLo, you know I love you." I say.

He gives me the "there's more" look.

"But you're right, I'll love him too much to be paying attention to anything else." I say.

He rolls his eyes. I smile. I hold his head in my hands, kissing his lips.

"You know I'll be giving you just as much attention. You gave me this gift and I couldn't be anymore grateful. You made this possible. I love you so much Lo." I say.

He grins. I kiss him again and again and again. I smile as he closes his eyes, absorbing my kisses.

"You didn't shower me with these much kisses since we first met." He said.

"Really?" I ask.

He nods, licking his lips. He then kisses my chin, standing up from the stool he occupied. I move away from him, making my way into the kitchen. I smile as the memories of the early stages of our relationship came back to me. He knows just how to keep me happy.

Flashback: June 2017

"Let's see what we have here. We have a guy, interested in buying a house. Pet friendly, two story, spacious. Let's see what we got." Christian says, reading off the iPad.

I follow behind him as we make our way to the waiting area in the lobby. My eyes land on a guy, engulfed in his phone. He had weird looking hair, but when he looked up I realized how much it suit him. And how handsome he was.

My breath hitches as his brown orbs lock on mine. I gulp as he rises from his seat. His height intimidated me more than I wanted.

"Hello Mr. Russell, my name is Christian Holmes. Head CEO here at Harmony Realtors." Christian exclaimed, holding his hand out to greet D'Angelo.

D'Angelo shook his hand, briefly removing his eyes from my gaze. I finally caught my breath when he looked away.

"And this is Ariel Williamson." Christian introduces the two of us.

D'Angelo held his hand out to me. I shook it.

"D'Angelo Russell." He said.

I give a small smile, feeling my stomach churn at the feeling of his thumb massaging the skin on the back of my hand. I pull my hand away shortly after.

"She will be assigned to you as your realtor. She's one of our best. And since you two are around the similar age range, I figure she'd best know what interests you." Christian exclaims.

D'Angelo nodded.

"Looking forward to working with her." He replied.

I grip my iPad with an unconscious tightness. His gaze was making me very nervous.

"I'll leave you two to it. If you guys need anything just let me know." Christian said, before walking away.

Me and D'Angelo stood there in complete silence. Neither of us daring to mumble a word.
