Falling for my neighbor

Day at the park

6 months later
Toni's POV

I smiled as I watched Cheryl push 6-month-old Rylan in the swing. The tiny girl giggled and squealed happily as Cheryl made silly faces at her.

Baby Yoda rolled around in the grass, playing with his chew toy. I watched as Cheryl picked up Rylan and carried her over to our blanket.

"My beautiful girls." I smiled, taking Rylan as Cheryl handed her to me. "She's tired, we should probably start heading out." Cheryl said.

"Okay, Bebé." I said. Before I could get up, I heard someone call my name causing Cheryl and me to turn in that direction.

I smiled when I saw who it was. "Taylor?!" I asked, standing up with Rylan. The small girl Babbled about something as she kicked her legs out.

"Oh my God! Toni, Wow, look how well you look." She smiled as she hugged me.

"Thanks, you look well too. How's Colton?" I asked, referring to her son. "He's in college now, he's getting a degree for science." She explained.

Cheryl picked up Yoda, taking Rylan from me. "Oh, my, how could I forget. This is my beautiful wife, Cheryl, and my beautiful daughter Rylan. And there is my handsome mutt, Baby Yoda." I smiled at my family.

"So nice to meet you, Cheryl." She smiled.

"Same, Here." Cheryl nodded but I could tell she was uncertain.

"Well, Uh, My baby girl has to go down for a nap, so maybe we can meet up later?" I asked, taking my phone out to get her Instagram.

"Sure." She smiled.

"So, How long have you and Cheryl been married?" She asked as we sat in Pops diner.

"For 4 years now." I smiled. "I still can't get over how beautiful she looked in that dress."

Taylor smiled, "I'm happy for you, T."

"Thanks, Taylor. That means a lot." I nodded. She smiled, "No problem. It's been kinda quiet without Colton around. So this is nice to have some company." She smiled.

"I'm glad you find company in me." I chuckled.

"So, Find anyone interesting since you moved back?" I asked, taking a fry out of the tray.

"Yeah, But they aren't available." She sighed. "It must be nice having a wife like Cheryl." She added.

"What do you mean?" I asked, raising my eyebrow.

"Well, I mean, she doesn't get jealous." She said.

"She does, it's just that she trusts me. Though, I'd never even dream about breaking her heart like that." I said with a sigh.

My phone beeped announcing that I received a message. "Wifey💍❤️"

I smiles before opening the message.

Wifey💍❤️: Rylan is asleep now, I'm making dinner, Any ideas?

Me: Ohhh, I really want your spaghetti and sausages.

Wifey💍❤️: Of course, Baby. I'll get to it. When will you be home?

Me: Sometime soon, Beautiful☺️

Wifey💍❤️: Okay, drive safely. I love you😘

Me: I love you more, sexy😩❤️

"Who's got you smiling like that?" Taylor's voice broke me out of my trans that all Cheryl. "My wife." I chuckled, "Just telling me that she's starting dinner. So I should probably get going soon." I said, putting some money on the table.

"Really? So soon?" She asked with a look of disappointment. I sighed, "Yeah, sorry."

"It's fine..." She nodded.

------

"Than we just talked." I shrugged as I wrapped the noodles around my fork before putting it in my mouth.

"That's great. I'm glad you had fun." She smiled. "So, Date night?" She added.

"Uh, Shit! I told Taylor I'd go over to help her set up her new TV stand. I could cancel-" I spoke.

"No, No need. I can wait, go hang out with your friend." She cut me off. I looked at her questioningly, "Are you sure, Bebé? You come first."

She shook her head, "It's okay, TT." She nodded. I smiled at the nickname she gave me.

"I missed that one." I said with a chuckle, wiping my face to remove spaghetti sauce. Cheryl smiled, squeezing my hand.

"I love you." I smiled, staring into her eyes.

"I love you more, " She whispered, tilting her head to give me a small peck. I smiled as we went back to eating.
