High Priestess

4.5

When Stevie gets home from work, Lindsey is standing at the front door waiting for her.

"What?" She asks cocking an eyebrow and pulling off her black boots and discarding her purse.

"I have something to show you," He kisses her, "How was work?" 

"It was good, nice getting back into the swing of things." She nods.

"That's good, anything new or exciting at the store since you've been gone?" 

"Moon shaped turquoise, I had to take some home." She digs in her purse and holds it up to him and he takes it in his hands and fondles it for a while. 

"So what I had to show you...would you follow me, madame?" He asks.

"Mhm, after we let Roxy in." She points to the backdoor where the Chocolate lab is bouncing up and down against the glass.

"She knows better than that...ROXY!" Lindsey yells as the dog drops and just starts barking.

"Relax honey, she's just excited that her favorite person is home," Stevie smirks going to open the door. Roxy jumps up on her and places her paws on Stevie's hips like she normally does when Stevie gets home and licks her cheek.

"I missed you to Rox. Come on, Daddy has to show us something." She kisses the dog's head and rubs her ears as Roxy barks.

Lindsey leads her upstairs and pushes open the room that's down the hall from their's at the top of the stairs. Stevie steps in and immediately good energy surrounds her and she takes in the room, one hand falling to her stomach, the other shooting up to her mouth. 

The walls were a crisp snow white, contrasting the dark walnut flooring. There was a white crib in the corner of the room on a slant, one wall having a window on it, and a white armchair with a little pink pillow on it for feeding. The crib sheets are pink with white moons and stars on it. There was a pink fuzzy blanket draped over the side of the crib. They were standing directly next to a changing table at the entrance of the room. The changing pad was also pink with white moons and stars on it. The dresser was on the wall with the closet also white. There was a little pink hamper by the changing table and some baby toys scattered about. On the changing table directly was a grey stuffed owl. IN the middle of the room there was a pink carpet with white intersecting lines creating a diamond on it. But what struck Stevie the most was the little shelving unit above the crib. 

Roxy immediately found the carpet and started scratching her back on it, but Stevie stepped over and went towards the crib. She tried to reach up and grab what was on the shelf but she couldn't because of her height and she was getting huffy.

"Lindsey I want them." She whines.

"For what?" Lindsey asks.

"I need to know if you got the right ones and I need to transfer my energy to them and so do you." Stevie states.

"Well your energy is snippy and antsy right now, is that the energy you want to give to our baby?" Lindsey smirks walking over to her and kissing the pout off of her face. 

"Well no, but I'll center myself while you get them down please," Stevie begs.

"Only because you asked politely. Sharon and Robin helped me procure everything." Lindsey explains.

"Don't...use that word?" Stevie states.

"Why it's a good word." He pouts.

"It is, but I...well, I'll tell you later. Just get me those crystals." She states.

Lindsey had done well in the crystal department, but then again he did mention that Robin and Sharon had helped him out. The stones Lindsey had set up were Rose quartz which signifies unconditional love, and strong attachment. Then there was Pyrite which is good physical and emotional well-being. Next was black tourmaline which drives away negative energy. Lepidolite, which also wards off negative energy. There was a giant piece of blue lace agate which is the stone of Child Protection. Then there was Carnelian which is health and strength. 

"Oh, Lindsey it's perfect thank you." Stevie turns around and kisses him sweetly after they've transferred the energy. 

"There's one more thing...will you marry me?" He asks handing her a ring box. She looks at it her mouth wide, it was a gold ring and it actually looked like three welded together. All three of them had one single diamond in the middle of it. 

"Yes, yes I'll marry you. October 3rd, your birthday. Please, Lindsey." She begs.

"Absolutely." Lindsey nods kissing her again as she wraps herself around him.

That night as they were laying in bed, Roxy right in the middle of them, her head on Stevie's stomach at the same time that Stevie's head is on Lindsey's shoulder.

"Procuring is the only reason I met you." Stevie sighs.

"What?" He asks shifting slightly to allow her to look up at him.

"Lori Perry, she used to work with me...well I guess she still does, we gave her a job as a cashier at Divinity today. But she worked with me when I worked for Mick. We were secretaries together. I was trying to get extra money to open up my business and she said that the way she got extra money was by procuring for Mick. He would host these giant parties every Friday night, you know that but at said parties, the women that were wandering around were there for one thing and one thing only. Mick used them to seduce his clients. The men would approach them and they'd have to give them a hand or a blow job, usually dance with them and give them a lap dance. Do everything but have sex with them. So it couldn't be classified as prostitution which is why it wasn't brought up in the case. I procured with Lori one Friday night and the following Friday was when Mick decided that we were getting married. He wanted you to sign under him. He sent me to do the dirty work. He wanted me to procure you. Give you a blow job or a hand job, a lap dance, anything to make you want to sign with him so you could see me more. That first date we went on at the bar, was me trying to procure you, but Lindsey I fell in love with you on that date, and halfway through I decided to stop trying to appease Mick and I just wanted to get to know you." Stevie explains.

"I understand, but instead of looking at with a bad connotation-how, you met Mick. Look at it with a good connotation-how we ended up together. I love you, Stevie." He kisses her.

"I love you too."
