I had enough of her two timing ways.”
I lay my head down on his shoulder and stay silent listening to his explanation. His sandalwood cologne is calling my lips, I want to kiss him so bad right now, just his neck, just a peck. I know if I do story time will be over. “It took her six months to sign the divorce papers.” He pulls me up so we're face to face. “That's why she came over that night Sarah, she knew you were there. She had to. Why else would she come over that late. Like I said, for some reason she's out to get me. Please don't let her win baby, I couldn't take it. I'm sorry, so, so sorry I didn't tell you. I love you Sarah. Please say you forgive me?”
A big part of me wants it to be that easy, but the wounded part of me puts up protest. I still can't grasp the way he feels, or felt when he decided to withhold that information. If I was still married I would have made it a point pretty early on to tell him. I do understand him wanting to put the time with her behind him. I'm also well aware of the fact that it would have come up at some point. Especially with her scheming ways.
The look on his face while waiting with bated breath was hopeful. A slight smile playing on his lips, head tilted towards mine, he looks so good. My longing for him is only heightening the longer I stare into the depths of his baby blues. I gently pick Fenway up and place her on the other end of the couch so I can straddle Brent's lap. It makes me believe he knows how sexy I think it is when he raises one of his eyebrows at me because he's contantly doing it. No need for questioning me with words. He knows I'll give him the answers he's looking for.
Gently taking his face in my hands, I rub my nose against his giving him eskimo kisses. “Your lucky I love you and missed you so much. It's going to take some time to forgive you completely but I'm willing to try and I'm honestly not strong enough to stay away any....” He doesn't let me finish my sentence. His mouth is crushing down on mine, stealing my breath. His hands find their way to my breasts, pinching my nipples through the soft cotton. My hips instinctively move over his crotch, my center begging for connection. I've been waiting so long to feel this again, so why is my mind trying to fight what my body wants. His moans snap me out of my internal debate. “Wait!” I exclaim breathlessly.
“What?” He asks a look of surprise on his face. “I don't want to stop, I just got you back.” Looking completely vulnerable he strokes my hair, his chest rising and falling at a quickening speed that matches mine. “I need you.” He pleads with me and slowly starts to pull my face back to his.
Shaking my head I open my mouth only to close it again as I search for the words that I want to say. “If you have any other secrets now would be the time to tell me. I want no regrets with you. I only want to move forward, not backwards. I love you Brent, please don't keep anything from me ever again. Whatever happens I need to know you'll tell me. My heart couldn't take it again.” My head lowers, staring at his chest with the last of my words.
Crushing me to him he continues his petting, kissing the top of my head, he whispers, “Nothing else, I promise.” His hands travel down my back to the hem of my shirt, tugging it up and off with no struggle from me.
Sitting up, I stroke his face. “Promise?” I ask again, while he fingers the tops of my breasts swelling out of my bra, giving him one more chance to disclose anything that may come back and haunt us.
“I promise beautiful. There's nothing else. You know everything else there is to know about me. I also guarantee to never keep anything from you ever. Your my world Sarah, I was so lost without you.” He leans in and licks the edge of my lips, continuing up my jawline. His hand shakily takes hold of the back of my neck, fingers massaging my nape. When his mouth finally reaches my ear, he lovingly gives it a few nips,
