Part 60
A soft light cast a romantic glow throughout the bedroom. Chelsea was already in bed, AJ’s pillow pulled tight and the covers too. AJ leaned against the door watching her sleep. His heart swelled with love as he thought about the way she looked at him the first time they’d made love. He had to hold her.
Moving quietly, he sat beside her on the bed and brushed her hair to the side.
Her eyes fluttered open and she asked sleepily, “What took you so long?”
“We were talking….me and the guys. You should be sleeping, ‘Beautiful’,” he whispered as he fingered a strand of hair.
“I was waiting for you,” she replied as she took his hand. “Tonight was wonderful, Alex…thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
“You’re coming to bed, aren’t you?”
“I just need to change.”
“Don’t take too long, please.”
Leaning over, Alex placed a kiss on her lips. “I promise.”
AJ quickly stripped down to his boxers, cut out the light, and climbed into bed to gather her in his arms. After she had her head settled on his shoulder, he placed a kiss on her forehead.
“You and Dee seemed to get along tonight.”
“No need not to. We’ve reached an understanding. I don’t want her husband cuz I already have the man of my dreams,” purred Chelsea as she ran her finger down his chest.
There was a long silence as AJ played with her hair. Finally, “You were really okay with us singing to you?”
“I…” yawn….”loved it.”
“Then why won’t you let me sing to you at a show?”
“I don’t want that kind of attention in front of the fans,” answered Chelsea. “Promise me you won’t?”
“I promise, but I want you to know that it’s you I think about…especially when I sing “My Beautiful Woman”.”
Chelsea lay her hand on his stomach. “Always your beautiful woman.”
Silence once more…a long one in which both were lost in their own thoughts.
“Chelsea, I need to tell you something.”
“Sounds serious.”
“Sorta. I’m a little worried how you’re gonna react after the way you reacted to your mother’s news.”
“What is it?”
“I’m selling this house to your grandparents and mother.”
The silence was awkward but Chelsea finally said, “Where are we going to live?”
“We can find a place closer to Kevin so Annie doesn’t have to change schools….and all the decorations we planned we can have done in the new house.”
“Maybe a house with a yard so she can play outside.”
“Sounds like a plan. Are you okay with it?”
“Uh huh! Is that what you were doing this afternoon?”
“That was part of it.”
“Gonna tell me the rest of it?”
“Not yet.” Alex hesitated then asked, “Please tell me you’re okay with all this, Chelsea. I don’t want this to come between us.”
“Moving into the school district where Annie already has friends is good and I really love the fact that you’re looking out for her.”
“She’s gonna be my step-daughter soon. Of course, I’m going to look out for her.”
Chelsea rolled so that she was on top of him. “Alex, I love my grandparents and they tried to help me. It was my father who cut them off from me.”
“What about your mother?”
Chelsea shook her head, “Jury’s still out on her. It’s been nice having her around and Annie adores her.”
“But you still don’t know how you feel about her not helping you?”
“Alex, if she could walk away from Daddy after the wreck, why couldn’t she do that when he kicked me out?” Chelsea paused because this was a discussion they’d had before. “I’m just not sure I want her around permanently.”
“Don’t worry….it’s not like she’ll be living with us.” AJ touched the tip of her nose, “Besides….YOU have a degree to finish ….so I can have my own personal lawyer.”
Chelsea laughed, “I certainly hope you won’t need me as your lawyer.”
“Why?”
“Cuz I’m working on being a criminal lawyer.”
“You never know,” teased AJ. Getting serious, he said, “Chelsea, whatever you want to do, I’ll support you.”
“Thank you. I guess I need to call my professor and find out what I need to do to finish.”
“I have an idea. Why don’t we go to Virginia when I’m done in Orlando with the video and you can talk to him?”
“Don’t you have to come back here for promotional appearances?”
“I can spare a couple days.”
“Thank you, Alex.”
Chelsea settled her head back on AJ’s shoulder, her hand still on his stomach and gave a contented sigh.
“I’m glad you’re happy,” whispered AJ as he took her hand in his.
“I never thought I’d ever feel like this again, Alex.”
“I want you to always be this happy….and I want to make love to you now.”
Chelsea slid her hand down into his boxers grasping his hard cock. “I can tell!”
“Just having you next to me makes me hard,” rasped AJ as he tried to control his raging desire. There was a magic in her touch that reached to his soul. “God, you’re gonna make me cum like this.”
“So?” she teased as she moved her hand down to his sac.
“I don’t want to cum like this, ‘Beautiful’. I want to be in you…feel your satiny walls wrapped around me!” AJ smoothly rolled Chelsea onto her back. With ease, he slid into her hot body and began to stroke slowly. He took her hands, laced his fingers with hers and held them above her head as they made love. No more words were spoken but volumes were said as their eyes were locked, never wavering.
As she felt the tingle begin, Chelsea bit her lower lip and AJ knew. He let go of her hands and reached between their joined bodies. Without err, he pressed and immediately felt her response. Her eyes grew wide, her walls tightened, and her body trembled as her juices flowed. It was what he needed and he gave one last thrust before releasing his own juices.
Spent, AJ rolled onto his side and rested his hand on her stomach. “I love you,” he whispered.
Chelsea snuggled closer and sighed. “You are a gift from heaven.”
AJ started to answer but he stopped when he realized that she was asleep. Closing his eyes, he drifted off to sleep, the warmth of her body beside him.
