His best friend

Chapter Twenty-Four

Rochelle POV

Yr 1970, Christmas at Graceland.
It's been years since me and Billy split, he refused to talk to me. Which I don't blame him, after I told him I was Pregnant and it wasn't his. I wouldn't talk to me either. Elvis Split things up With Priscilla and she moved back To Germany, there was talk about her in the papers about her writing a book about Elvis. Which Elvis did not like at all, but we couldn't do anything about it.

I had our baby boy in 1968, he turned 3 last week. He is the joy of our life's. We named him Aaron after Elvis's father. Life is good, actually life is perfect right now. Elvis has been on tour in the last year but tonight he comes home for Christmas and I couldn't be happier.

I put on his favorite Red blouse and paired it with high waisted white jeans. I got Aaron dressed in little slacks and a white dress top to match, he looks just like his daddy I thought, seeing him tumble around. Moments latter a knock appeared on the door, I practically stumbled myself running down the stairs.

I swung the door open and there stood Elvis, we almost matched as he wore his white dress pants and a unbuttoned Red dress shirt. I collapsed into him, as I started crying.

"Oh satin, did I miss you..." he stroked my hair as I breathed in his scent. He cupped my cheeks, and kissed me so gently I almost melted into his chest. He twirled me around and walked me inside Graceland. Greeting his family and friends, as they all gathered around him.

"Where's my boy?" Elvis shouted joyfully, crouching down to Aaron's level. He came tumbling out of he kitchen with a banana in his hand.

"Daddy!!" He ran into Elvis's arms, wrapping his tiny hands around his neck.  Elvis got up with Aaron in his arms, came over to me and wrapped his arms around me.

"God did I miss you." I whispered , a muffle came from Elvis I couldn't understand what he said. He Kissed me again and took my Hand setting Aaron down.

Elvis Led me outside Graceland to the stables, Snow fell on his beautiful dark brown hair. He grabbed both my hands in his, getting down on one knee.

"Elle , my life is complete with you and without you I can barely think... breath... and function... I never wanna feel that way agian without you. Will you Make me whole and complete and Marry me?"  Elvis's blue ocean eyes looked up at me, filling with tears.

I could barely think, and process what is going on. But I nodded anyway with tears streaming down my cheeks. He slipped a beautiful Princess cut ring on my finger. Then cupped my cheeks giving me a passionate kiss, that made my knees weak.

And I could say this was the best Christmas Yet.
