After I Do (Knight #2) (On Hold)

Chapter 24

It's been three months since everything went down. It's been a very stressful three months, to say the least, between court dates and work, all I wanted was a break and the date Zoe was finally convicted  I was so relieved. 

A week after Zoe was arrested we moved back into the penthouse. I was still not excited about going back home because who would be after what happened here. After moving back I started to miss living in the suburbs near Marcus' family because during this very tramatizing time , I have really bonded wih them. 

And that led me to make the desision wth Marcus to move nearer to his family, early in our marriage he suggested we moved and I was against it  but I honestly wished I agreed to , maybe if I had said yes non of this wouldn't have happened but I coudn't be sure. But even if I had regrets , I'm glad I decided to do it now than never. So I week after we found a place , it was a five minutes walk away from where Sophia and James live and a fifteen minutes drive from his parents.

 A few days after we moved in. It felt so good to be back, I loved waking up in the morning to fresh air and beautiful silence instead of the busy city of New York. 

Today marks eight month of marriage, time flys so fast you know. I know to others this might not be a big deal because it's only eight months and nt a year but not for me. 

When I first agreed to this marriage, I thought that I would find something or anything I could use to get myself out before the marriage but that didn't happen. So I tried everything I could after the wedding to make him divorce me or a least give me something I could use against him and well that didn't work either. 

We have come so far, from me acting like a brat and threatening him to the both of us having a normal relationship. 

The way wasn't always easy, we fought, worked together , went through trama but still came ot together. I know I sound so cheesy but I do feel cheesy. 

I got out of bed , Marcus was absent so I knew he was already up.   I made my way to the bathroom and took a bath. I wasn't  feeling the urge to dress up so I got one of Marcus' T-shirt and an underwear. 

I was on my way to the kitchen to get some breakfast but I decided to see if  I could find Marcus first and boy, it was worth it.  Marcus  was at the home gym working out, is it just me or does a guy working out gives you butterflies. 

'Are you drooling" I heard Marcus ask and that's when  I noticed that I was standing here staring at him like a creep. 

" No I'm not" 

"Oh really" he said walking towards me, I slowly  back up

"No, no, no, your sweaty " 

"And" 

"No kisses " as I said that Marcus pulled me into a hug "your getting me sweaty " 

He let me go after a few minutes and ran upstairs laughing. 

"Marcus "  I screamed after him

Currently we were on our way to Charles and Ashley's house for their daughter Noelle's second birthday. 

We had a great time and so did the kids. 

On our way back Marcus took a detour and we were no longer going home. 

"Where are we going" I asked 

"Let's just say it's a surprise " 

"You know I don't like surprises" I said with a pout

"Stop  with that face "

"What face"

"That face" 

"Please , just tell me" 

"Okay, okay, you've been stressed out these past three months and I thought that since our first honeymoon was tragic. Ii thought that we could go on a second honeymoon to Figi. "

"Why did you tell me " 

"Because you..."

I can't believe him, doesn't he know that when a woman tells you to spill a secret she doesn't mean it.
