Aurora sat between my legs on the beach as we both admired the waves. My hand intertwined with hers. I rubbed her stomach, it most definitely has gotten bigger.
Way bigger.
Three weeks in Florida isn't a joke. I miss my bed, my job.
"Are you happy?" I asked her.
She hummed,"It doesn't get any better than this."
I swallowed. Maybe I should wait. Am I really nervous? Why? I've never been this nervous before. I can't do this, I should leave. I groaned, I can't, the government watches our every move at this fucking house!
I looked down the beach as my mother and Xavier played happily in the water.
As for Lucas, he was drunk and dancing with Mia to an unknown song. Wait a minute....There isn't music playing. Maybe they were dancing to the sounds of the waves.
I sighed, it's now or never.
"Then calm my nerves and marry me." I said in one breath.
She didn't respond. Oh shit, I'm about to faint. Why can't I breathe? Why did I think this would work when she is way older than me?
Answer me woman!
You have my kid but doesn't want to get married!? Calm down. Calm down. Calm down.
How can I calm down? I was literally breathing through my fucking skin. My phone started to vibrate, I picked it up. FaceTime from Lily.
Good! This could be my moment to get away. I pushed her up slightly and stood up. She tried to grabbed my arm but I snatched away and walked off.
She definitely heard when I asked.
Was I sweating? I giggled a little and wiped my face before answering the call.
"Yes? What is wrong?" I asked Lily.
She rejected me. Many women would kill for her fucking spot!
"Your house is finished." She said looking into the camera.
"Are you high? How did you get weed with you when the government have that place surrounded?" She asked.
I laughed and started to drink the juice. I could use a blunt. A wave of heat went down my back from embarrassment. I dropped the phone on the carpet, no way I was going to let her see me sweating.
I quickly wiped my face and picked the phone up.
"Cam...what's wrong?"
I laughed and shook my head,"Nothing wrong. I think I've been in this house far too long."
"Go to the park or something to get fresh air. They do let you do that?" She suggested.
I nodded.
"Then do that."
I sigh. This was too much, I'm not staying here another day after this one.
"I'm coming home tomorrow." I said then ended the call.
Grabbing my AirPods, I laid in the swing, outside on the deck facing the beach.
I texted her before she could call back.
One more favor, I need my motorcycle and truck from Outside of Aurora house. Tell the guards don't mention it to her, I need this done before tomorrow morning 🙃.
She read it,"Ok."
I turned the music up and closed my eyes. Maybe I should've stuck with Avery. My head is pounding.
I hate myself.
I should leave now.
I stood up as Lucas walked into the house. Going into the room, he weirdly followed behind me.
"What are you doing?" He slurred a little.
I laughed,"I'm leaving, right now."
He nodded and walked towards the door making me grabbed his arm,"Don't tell the others."
"I'm not going back out. I'm riding with you, meet you in your car in 5." He said before leaving.
I quickly packed my bags and ran down stairs. Oddly, Lucas was already in the car, sleep? I wasn't gone but six minutes!
He probably already had his bags packed. I got into the car and started it. Oh my god, I forgot this car loud! Before I could pull out the driveway, a black car pulled in front of me.
He jumped out as I let my window down enough for him to only see my face.
"Where are you going?"
I rolled my eyes,"To the store, two blocks from here, Can I do that without being fucking watched?"
He nodded and got back into his car. They turned around and went the opposite way. Well that was easy than I thought. My phone hooked to the radio as I got on the highway.
Turning the music up, I sighed as I looked at the gas hand.
Looks like I have to stop after all.
I pulled into the gas station and kept the car running. Going into the store, I picked up several bags of chips and drinks.
A energy especially for me. The drive was only about two hours but I still wanted it. I paid for it all plus gas.
I leaned against the car as it filled up.
Am I doing the right thing? Most people do what I'm doing after a rejection. Who doesn't? I quickly got in the car and turned the music back up.
Well, home here I come.
——
I smiled as I shot different people on Call of duty. I'm a goat at this game.
"Watch out! Watch out! Nevermind I got him." Lucas yelled through my headphones.
I missed this between us. Just staying at home, playing the game.
This Xbox was my happy place.
"Are we still going to the party tonight at six? If so, it's 5:00, I will have to get off to get dressed." Lucas said.
I sighed,"Ok, I'll meet you there."
After showering and washing my hair, I put on my black, kind of tight, slacks, red silk shirt and black suspenders. Braiding my wet hair, I used the blow dryer to dry it when I finished.
I'll take it down in the car. Grabbing my keys to my new Lamborghini, I'm obsessed with those by the way, I smiled as it purred loudly under me.
Before I could pull out, Aurora Mercedes Limo pulled in front of me.
I groaned and let my seat back. It's been days, now she just want to pop up again? I've been ignoring her messages and calls, I'm surprised she haven't showed up sooner.
A new message popped up.
Get in the truck.
I sigh,"I'm driving my own car. Let me the fuck out!"
Her driver put the limo in park and got out. Lucas jumped out with them shocking me. He told them something making them get back in.
He walked to the passenger side of my car and got in. After a moment, the limo pulled off with me going the opposite direction.
"Your mother is riding with them." Lucas said as he rubbed the car.
I nodded,"Let's take the long way, I have to take down my hair."
The closer we got to the building, the faster I started to undo my hair. So it, it looked way better than I expected. I looked at Lucas.
He had on the usual black and white with a tie.
Straighten my hair, we got out as the Valet opened our doors. After taking pictures we walked in the building.
It's was packed!
The waitress led us to the row with the women. And Aurora dad? I shrugged and sat down. This looks more like a concert. There was a stage.
Aurora sat on the other end of the row.
The seating was Me, my mother, Xavier, Lucas, Mia and Aurora.
A waitress sat a shot on the table beside me.
"I didn't order this." I told her.
She pointed,"Those women ordered it, enjoy."
I looked down and a woman raised her glass. I raised the glass as the waitress walked away. As the light started to dim, someone sat beside me and crossed their legs.
From her perfume I didn't have to guess who it was. She reached out to grab my hand but I pulled away.
I looked at her, she was glaring at the women who bought this drink. The woman immediately turned around. I sigh, even if Aurora and I break up, women would be afraid to date me.
A message came to my phone.
Why would she text me?
I love you.
I looked at Aurora and continued drinking my drink. If she love me as much as she say, why don't she want to marry? I cleared my throat and blinked away the 'sweat'.
As the night moved on, different singers performed. I looked at the time, 12:00am. They not tired?
I leaned over to my mother,"It's late, I'm going home."
All four of them was drunk so I don't think she really understood me.
"Im going with her, my driver will take you all home when you leave." Aurora said standing up.
I walked ahead of her. Who was she to invite herself into my car and house? We waited as the valet brought the car around.
"I'm going to your house."
We got in and I pulled off. See what I mean? The entire car ride was silent. This is too much silence, I cleared my throat and sat up straight.
I feel that alcohol coming in.
I got to get home. Oh shit, I laughed. My driveway was right there. After parking we both got out and walked into the house. I immediately sat on the couch and turned on the game, I feel good as fuck.
"Cameron?"
Nevermind! I forgot I was suppose to be sad.
"What?" I answered putting on the headphones.
Ok that came out harsher than intended.
"Are you sure you want to get married?"
Nope, not anymore.
I rolled my eyes,"Nope, don't worry about it."
Oh my god! Is it hot in here? Why was I losing breathe again? I got to leave here.
"You don't mean that." She hissed.
Then why fucking ask? I sighed. Why would she ask me that?
I kinda hate it here.
Well this situation. I hate this argument.
"Marriage is a big step from girlfriend and girlfriend. Especially with our age difference." She mumbled.
I smacked my lips,"Age difference? I've graduated college, own my own business, have my own house and cars. I think I'm grown enough to know what the fuck I want."
Slow down...
Don't let my mouth overload my ass, got it. I still wanted to marry her. Where did I get this urge?
"You haven't been through your whore phrase, your staying out all night partying phrase, for gods sake you've only slept with two women your entire life!"
I have to experience life more? I wasn't any of that when she met me.
I laughed,"You don't want to marry me because I'm not a whore? I have way more respect for myself."
"Three years with you isn't enough time for you to see I only want to be with you?" I asked her.
She nodded,"It is."
"Cameron I love you enough to marry you. It's just seem so unreal that you haven't stepped out of the relationship and not just sex wise. Especially like people your within your age group. You've been there through the drug bust, robberies, selling it and killing the ones who came to me wrong. I'm pregnant and the only thing I could offer you is Love, Sex, and food." She said softly.
Is my dick getting hard?
"What's better than that?" I groaned inwardly at myself. Why did I sound like a lovesick puppy? Because I am.
She sighed,"I'm sorry I didn't answer you sooner. I was still shocked. When you got up I knew you were leaving so I gave you a few days to cool off."
When did she say yes?
Im getting married bitches!!!!!
