The Deal

Chapter 13: Back to Reality

Chapter 13: Back to Reality

Last night was amazing. Unexpected but at least I know now how it feels to have someone propose to you. To say we love each other would be a lie, we are still in the 'like' stage sooner or later maybe I'll be able to learn how to love Richard like a wife should. But this is not the day to think of the unpredictable future ahead of me.

"Stop moving.."

I looked over to see a topless man with hands tightly wrapped around my body.

"Richard..." I whined "Hmm.."

This is what happened the last time we shared the same bed. This is why I didn't want to share beds with anyone.

"Get your ass up now." I managed to say in between his tight grip. The silence was slowly killing me. I dont want someone to walk on us like this.

He looked so cute and peaceful. Enough of this Tori, you have to push him.

"Richarddddd...."

"Baby we'll do it later." He said half awake I can feel him smirking. this pervert creep. "Richard if you dont!"

"Good aftie kiddos!" The door swung open revealing my mom and my future mother-in-law.

I sat up resting my head on the headboard Richard's arm still wrapped around my waist how can he do this?

"Good afternoon mom good afternoon grace!" I smiled hands running through my morning hair trying to make myself look at least presentable. "Tori, call me mom."

"Tell your husband to put on his shirt and come down for lunch." Mom said in a serious tone but eventually gave up and laughed. Grace laughed at us while grabbing my moms hand leaving us alone.

How can they be that close? "WAKE UP SLEEPY HEAD!!" I hit his head one more time.

"okay okay!!! I'm up!"

They said never mess with a morning person but I'm a badass so I did the opposite.

I ran to the restroom to pee, see this is the downside of having a tiny bladder. That feeling when you just pee feels like you are free or its just me.

"Yes I see.." A man just spoke out of nowhere I didn't even had any idea who the man was talking to and then...

"OIIII!!! Get out!!" I was halfway pulling up my jeans when he walked in on me. "I'm sorry!"

Yeah sorry your butt.

Upon exiting I saw him standing on the side of the wall glued to his phone. I stepped on his foot and head my way down.

Why are there a lot of people here? It's not even the wedding yet and what more? "Honey, this is your aunt Lucy, Marcus' mom."

"Good morning!" I smiled and gave her a hug. *cough* "Afternoon" a voice corrected me. From what I heard it was Richard, the great.

I walked over to where the food was, this looked like a party. That I didn't know about. "Grandma!" I ran over to my grandma and almost tackle her to the ground good thing the chair stopped her. "Dear! You have to be careful!" She said in between laughs.

"Richard! Honey come here, do you remember grandma Carissa?" I looked to my right to see who she was referring too and indeed it was Richard. I mean this is his house after all.

But how come he knows my grandma? Have they met? I gave him a glance. "Background check." Richard whispered snaking an arm around my waist.

It must've been 3:00 or something when boredom finally hit me. I found myself drinking a watermelon shake before heading up stairs to go back to sleep. But someone grabbed me by my arm making me twirl around.
