“
We
need to get you packed and get you home,” he said.
They
hurried to her room. She packed everything up quickly. Most of it was
already done. He carried boxes out to the truck and made sure she
didn't lift anything. They took turns driving so they could get there
faster.
Brad
opened her door and helped her out. He opened his apartment door,
lifted her up, and carried her in. She laughed as she shook her head
at him.
“
Welcome
home, baby,” he said, as he kissed her in his arms.
He
put her down, took her hand, and walked down the hallway. Brad opened
the door next to his room and walked inside with her behind him. Her
eyes widened and she gasped.
“
It's
beautiful,” she said.
“
I
knew we would want to buy the stuff together and figure out where it
would all go. I couldn't wait. I had to paint the room. I hope you
really like it.”
It
was pink and white. There was a scene painted on one of the walls. It
had a tree and clouds. The room was awesome.
“
I
love it. It looks so good. Thank you so much,” she said.
“
I
love you two. I'm so happy to have you home. It was so hard not being
there with you. I feel so much better with you here.”
She
took his hand and pulled him behind her to his room. They stood in
what was going to be her room as well. She couldn't believe she was
really going to live with him.
“
I
am so excited to know that I will be falling asleep in your arms
every night and waking up next to you every morning. It doesn't feel
real. I love you more than you will ever know, Brad. I'm so happy
that we are going to be together. Do you know what I want right now?”
she asked.
He
shook his head.
“
I
want the man I love with all of my heart to make love to me. I need
you, baby,” she said.
He
wrapped her in his arms and claimed her mouth.
Two
weeks later, they were married. Two months after that, Rachel gave
birth to a beautiful baby girl. He was protective of her immediately.
She was definitely going to be a daddy's girl. They were a happy
family. Rachel couldn't wait to begin the rest of her life with the
man she had fallen in love with at thirteen. Her dreams really had
come true.
The
End.

Sea
of Love (Bachelor Billionaire #1)
Chapter
1
There
was a knock at Gavin's door. He grunted as he got up to answer it.
His four friends were waiting for him in the hallway.
“
I
know you aren't ready to sleep yet,” Heath said. “We have
all waited so long for this trip. We all work so hard, it's time for
some major partying. These women know nothing about us. The next
seven days is all about fun and relaxation. Let's get up to the lido
deck for the party.”
Gavin
knew once he was around all the noise and fun, he would get into it.
He shook his head and followed the guys down the hallway to the
elevator.
Gavin
Lucas owned a very successful technology company. He had worked at
his cousin Chris' company fresh out of high school. When the time was
right, Chris helped him start his own business. Gavin worked very
hard and was extremely proud of the man he had become.
He
knew the trip was going to be a lot of fun, but he also wanted time
to rest. There had been so much going on with his business, and he
wanted to clear his mind. When he went back to work, he wanted to be
fresh and alert.
They
walked out onto the lido deck and the party had already started. The
music was loud and the drinks were everywhere. The guys found a
waitress and their vacation was in full swing. Gavin waited for his
drink and then walked over to the railing to look out at the water as
the ship began to move.
The
water was so beautiful. It made him think about his time in Hawaii at
his Cousin Chris' house. He loved the blue color of the water and was
looking forward to the beach.
He
scanned the crowd and his eyes stopped on a woman sitting on a lounge
chair, reading a book. Gavin chuckled to himself. There was a huge
party going on all around her, and she sat there as if she were
alone. How could someone read like that, he wondered? There was
something about her. She looked nothing like any of the women he had
ever been with.
Usually,
women who came around trying to pick him up were dressed to impress.
They had their hair, makeup, and nails perfect while they strutted in
their designer clothes. Those women knew he had money, and that was
all that mattered to them.
Gavin
and his friends were from Pennsylvania, and the women around them
knew who they were. It was nice to know that on the cruise, he would
just be a regular guy. There would be no expectations of him from
anyone.
The
woman on the ship had on shorts and a t-shirt with flip flops on the
ground next to her. She had long, brown hair tied back into a
ponytail, a dark pair of sunglasses on, and no makeup. He liked the
way the woman sat there by herself, doing what she wanted, not
letting any of the noise and chaos affect her.
The
ship moved slowly as everyone screamed and shouted. Gavin looked out
over the water and felt a calm come over his whole body.
***
Becky
sat back in her lounge chair, on the lido deck, reading her book. She
loved the feel of the sun against her skin and the heat on her body
as she relaxed. She was so happy to finally be on her vacation. Her
things were put in her room, where she would spend the next seven
days. She planned on visiting the beaches and reading on the lido
deck, while relaxing every moment. It was loud as everyone partied
around her. She liked being among all of the noise as the ship took
its move into the beautiful water. She loved the thought of being on
the open water with nothing to see for miles. Becky had splurged the
extra bit so that she could get a room with a private balcony. She
planned to spend a ton of time using it. Maybe she would sleep out
there, with the breeze blowing through her hair.
She
was alone on the cruise, and that was the best part. Becky didn't
want anyone around to bother her. She planned on spending all of her
time alone. Her life was changing, and the vacation was a present to
herself to celebrate the beginning of her new life. She had recently
gotten out of a very serious relationship and decided on a new start
in a new location. Originally, she was from Michigan, but when she
looked for a new job, to go with her new start, the best opportunity
she found was in Pennsylvania. She had already made the move into an
apartment and had everything in place. Her new job would begin just
after her vacation was over. She was very excited about her new
beginning and her trip was the perfect thing to kick it off.
Becky
promised herself that she would not commit to another relationship
for at least a year. That way she had time to live for herself,
without having to be concerned with anyone else. She had too many
things she was interested in, to tie herself down to someone else.
She did not promise herself that she would avoid sex or one night
stands, just no relationships. She didn't feel like dealing with any
feelings for a long time. The cruise was the first thing on her list
of things to do. Take a vacation by herself. If she had brought
anyone with her, she would have to work around what they wanted to
do. Being alone, it was all about her and what she wanted.
