When it Happened *(Completed) EDITING

CHAPTER 57

The day has been beyond pleasurable as I've ever imagined. Joe has made today feel special. Surprising me with a naked lunch on a private yacht he rented. He's such a horny man, who would've thought. On another note, he did admit to having his own yacht, but that at the moment was being renovated. I won't lie as to say, It was a lot to process, but it comes with the territory, his lifestyle. It's who he is and what he has. I know easier said than done, but I"m going to have to try and get used to it somehow, when? I don't know. 

Come to think of it; I keep meaning to ask him about the damn Prius I thought he drove. This all feels real, but I'm so afraid of what the outcome will be when Lyla finds out. I'm only interested in what Lyla would think about all this, plus I'm still shocked by Krista knowing from day one.

Considering, I'm here speaking about how beautiful today was, but deep down inside; I'm a mess, I don't know how long this will last. What I went through with my marriage, his age, and Joe's history, I'm out of my wits. Will he love me forever? I'm 46; he's 25. Why me, I need to know. He's got a whole generation to find someone that can give him a family. 

That's my fear. I'm still mad at myself, telling Joe not to wear a condom. What was I thinking? He's too young, and I'm too old for children. If truth be told, I don't think he would want any, anyway I don't think. There's something else going on in his life, for him not to have had a commitment and to break off a wedding, something is questionable. Did he really ask Krista to let him accompany her to Lylas graduation party? So many thoughts and questions need answering, but he railroads them, and I've realized truthfully, so have I.

**********

As the day passed, lying next to Joe after a long romantic day, is starting to feel as comfortable as I thought it would be. This is sooo new to me. Our passion for one another continues to grow stronger and deeper with each day that passes. Yeah, maybe this is what we needed, after all. Yet, I know there's a long road ahead, but for now, I feel I hold the girl in me, to give him kisses, rub my nose with his, cuddle up in his arms as if we have been dating forever, free to do what I want with him, at home in his arms. Like we are right now. Laying naked. MMMM, I don't want this to end.

"Alix-are you nervous about something?" he asks, interrupting my train of thoughts, leaning in a kiss on my head, then scrolling through his phone.

"No, why?" I raised my chin up at him as if he knew something I didn't.

"Then why are you tapping your thumb on my stomach? He chuckles, and well, there it is, he did know something. WTF!!

"Joe, are you ever gonna stop asking me, when you know very well, why I tap my thumb." I murmured. And try to tickle him, smiling sheepishly.

"Alix no stop...ok I'm sorry," he flinches, grabbing my hand, gripping it tight. God, he's strong. "Ok, tough guy," I giggled and moved to the side. I reach over to the nightstand and grab my phone. 

"I'm sorry, it's just so cute to see you get all bent out of shape when I call you out on it," he laughs, getting a kick out of it. Haha, funny guy. 

"God, I love your laugh," I said as I looked at him as he's finding my nervous twitch funny.  I know it bothers him when I remind him that he needs to laugh more often. Not that I'm getting back at him, well maybe hehe, but in all honesty, he should. He pouts with a serious face. He's such a kid sometimes. That's the side I love to when it sneaks out at times. 

I look down on my phone. "I'm so surprised Anthony hasn't called, did you really email about a potential bid or did you threaten him of some kind," I chuckled at him as I went through my phone, but I didn't get an answer, I look up at him. And by the looks of it, he's not finding it funny.
