Scarlett

5 - Carson

Carson's POV:

Laying in the bed with her, her naked body pressed against mine, her leg swung over my waist, head on my chest, rising and falling with the motion of my breathing as she slept soundly, my hand running through her long dark hair as I watched her, held her, the feeling of her soft, smooth skin against mine was something I craved.

I fucking needed this, I needed to be inside of her, to reconnect with her in that way - to let her know how much I had missed every inch of her when I was away, shit I had wanted to lose myself in her the minute I saw her in the kitchen yesterday, but I knew I needed time with Logan too - I was willing to wait, especially when it came to that little boy. I loved her so much, both of them - and I knew I had a shit way of showing it - they deserved better - especially my little boy.

He was the greatest thing we had ever done, and Scarlett was an amazing mother to him - seeing her with him, the way his eyes lit up when she walked into the room or the secret smiles they shared together, of course I wanted more kids with her, shit I would have a whole football team with her if she would let me, but I knew I was fucking this up though.
The last 8 years we had been together I had gotten to do everything I had ever dreamed of, got to live the life I wanted with the woman I could only ever have hoped to have by my side, the last 5 of which I was at the top of my game, the only down fall was how much time I had to spend away from her and Logan.
I had remained loyal to the team the entire time, they had always been good to me and after the initial 5 year contract was up they re-signed me for another 5 - knowing this would take me out until it was time for me to retire from the game I took it. Lettie was always proud of me, loved that I was living my dreams, and with her fresh out of uni she was taking her place in her fathers company and she didn't even hesitate when I asked her to marry me,  but then less than 12 months after we were married, Logan came along and things with Scarlett changed - she wanted me home, hated me leaving and we fought when I was back.

I was still 2 years out from my contract with The Titans finishing and honestly I didn't know if Scarlett and I would even make it that long, I knew something was going to have to give eventually if I wanted this to work - and I did - I really fucking did. When I asked her to marry me I told her my dreams to have a big family, and damn it I still wanted that - a house full of kids - our kids.

I couldn't take my eyes off her as she stretched out in her sleep, her face burying further into my shoulder as she tried to prolong her sleep. Damn it she was so incredibly beautiful, I really didn't deserve her.

Let's not pretend for even a minute I don't mess around, Shit - I was away from home for fucking months at a time, living in a high rise apartment with a few of the other players and yeah, it quickly turned into a bachelor pad.
And while I was never a big drinker and wouldn't touch drugs if you fucking held a gun to my head, I was still a man and when the girls would come over dressed in next to nothing and start grinding on you - well it was easy to get sucked into it and I did. It had only ever been the one girl though, I just kept seeing her when I was away.
Amelia - she was gorgeous, long blonde hair, blue eyes, tanned skin - but wasn't Scarlett though and she knew what it was we had - for the past 2 years now she spent time with me at the apartment, kept her mouth shut and let me fuck her. She didn't want a commitment - not that I would give her one anyway - but the sex was good and she didn't get clingy afterwards. She knew I was in love with my wife and that I had a family back home, it always had been and always would be about nothing but sex between the two of us.

"Cage, where'd you go?" Her soft voice spoke to me but her eyes remained closed causing me to smile at her, she had called me Cage from the night we met. Carson was what she used when it was serious or it's how I would know when I was in shit.

"I'm here baby, right here"

"Hmmm, you're distracted"

"Just thinking about stuff baby"

Her eyes finally opened, her big grey eyes looking up at me,

"Wanna talk about it?"

"Yeah, I do" I rolled her over, pinning her against the mattress with my frame, her body fit perfectly under mine her legs on either side of my hips as I laid between them, Her naked tits pressing against the bare skin of my chest as I started placing kisses along her neck and down her shoulders, my hand training down her side and fingers stroking over her slit.

"Cage" She moaned, causing my already hard dick to throb,

"I'm going to break my contract Lettie" I whispered against her skin, smiling as I felt her hands on either side of my cheeks pulling my attention to her,

"What?"

"You heard me baby, I was on the phone to Dan when you got home today, he is the lawyer for the club, He said it will cost me but he is going to see what he can do, Ideally I will play out the rest of the season and then thats it"

"You're coming home, for good?" Her voice broke as emotion took over, her eyes filling with tears but a wide smile on her face as she looked up at me,

"Baby, I promised you when I proposed I would always do whatever I could to make you happy, for the last 8 years you have let me have every one of my dreams, Now I want to give you yours"

"Oh my god Cage, I love you so much"

"I love you to baby"

She pulled my face closer to hers, pressing her soft pink lips onto mine, her tongue sweeping across my bottom lip as she tried to take charge of the kiss. Smirking through our kisses as she gasped when I pushed my cock inside her wet core,

"Besides, maybe if I'm home for good you'll finally let me put a baby in here"

"I promise you Cage, you come home to us and we can have all the babies you want"

I groaned from the combination of her words and the feeling of her tight cunt wrapped around my cock.

"Careful what you say there baby, I might just keep you permanently pregnant" I pressed my lips to hers firmly as I thrust inside her, my fingers tightening on her hips as she moaned against my lips, pulling away from me and turning her face to my shoulder, she sank her teeth into my skin as she came on my dick. The tightening around my cock from her release milking me of my own as I filled her with my cum.

I supported my weight on my forearm as I placed soft kisses across her face, her face showing nothing but contentment and complete happiness as we lay in the aftermath of loving each other. My cock still inside her I was in no way rushing for this moment to be over.

"Is this real?" She whispered through her wide smile,

"Very real baby" I placed a soft kiss to her lips,

"Cage, I love you so much, you have made me so happy"

"You make me happy baby, I love you more than anything"

And I did. Scarlett and Logan were the only things in my life that truly mattered and it was time for me to put them first. I guess I had been doing a pretty crappy job of that especially these past 2 years but if I could pull his off I would have the rest of my life to make up for it. I didn't know what would happen, or what I would do once I finished out the season, I knew it wouldn't be without some sort of financial cost and there would probably need to be some sort of official announcement but I definitely was not the first player in the league to retire for family reasons.
I had some pretty serious conversations to have though once I heard back from Dan, I would need to talk to Markus the coach and the team and Amelia of course, not that any of that worried me - Lettie and Loges were absolutely worth it.
