Giving You Forever (4 page)

Gotta love him!

Soon after taking our plates, the server returns with an array of exquisite desserts. As full as I am, I can always make room for dessert. Just as I lean over to study the tray, Nolan interrupts.

“They look delicious but, unfortunately, we’re going to have to pass,” he politely informs the waiter.

Um…

I look at him, confused.

“Don’t worry, doll. I’ve got dessert covered.” he winks.

Yes, I’m fully aware that Nolan can fill me with sweetness, and I’m definitely looking forward to him providing me with that later, but darn it, I wanted some of that cheesecake!

Giving him the lip, he laughs. “Don’t worry, baby doll, it’s not just my cock I was talking about.”

My eyes bulge out of my head as I look around to see if anyone has heard him.

“Nolan…”

Of course, he couldn’t care less if anyone had, but I do.

“Oh please. We’re young and in love. What do people expect?” He waves his hand like it’s no big deal.

“Yeah, but I’m sure they don’t want a play by play of our…” I look around before saying it quietly, “sex life.”

“Sure about that?” he questions with a raised brow. I look at him apprehensively as he points to an older couple sitting a few tables over. “I’m sure he’d love a play by play of what I plan on doing to you tonight.”

With my cheeks getting increasingly red, I shake my head as I answer, “You’re awful. Are you ready?”

“I’m always ready for you, sweetheart,” he flirts as he stands and takes my hand.

“You’re unbelievable,” I flirt back, standing face to face.

“Make sure you scream that to me later.”

Chapter Three

– NOLAN –

I feel like a goddamn pussy when we leave the restaurant, feeling the nervous butterflies coming to life as we head over to the second part of our evening. Between meetings and appointments, I’ve been working my ass off today. Not to mention kissing ass to get this surprise just right for Alexa. Thank god my sister helped.

Pulling into the back of my Kelly’s club where my old apartment is, Alexa’s face goes confused and I can see the worry form in her eyes. Let’s just say she’s not the biggest club goer anymore, and to be honest, neither am I. There does come a point in your life when you just are over that scene, and Alexa and I are there. But that’s not my surprise. My surprise is downstairs and nowhere near the club above.

“Nolan…seriously? I really don’t feel like doing this tonight,” she says as we meet in front of the car, clearly disappointed with where we are.

“Don’t worry, doll.” I kiss the top of her hand that’s now laced with mine. “It’s not what you think.”

Giving me an apprehensive look, but trusting me regardless, she follows me through the back door. We make our way down the basement stairs and stop in front of the apartment door.

“Before I show you what’s inside,” I start, pulling her close to me, “I want you to know how much I love you. You’re my life, and I want to be there for you all the time, but knowing that I can’t, this is
my
plan B.”

The warmness in her eyes and the sweetness in her smile returns with my words. The skeptical look that she was wearing outside has now been replaced with anxious excitement, eager to know what’s hidden behind the door.

Fisting my shirt and reaching up onto her tippy toes, she kisses me gently. “You’re so good to me,” she whispers.

Smiling down at the love of my life, I answer, “You may want to hold your thought until you see what’s inside. Remember, this
is
our storage facility now.”

She knows me better than that, though and knows that I most likely have done something special for her, so instead of being nervous she gives me her ‘yeah okay’ look instead. Grinning and gently pecking her forehead, I turn the key and let her enter first. The gasp she makes after getting her first glimpse is exactly what I was hoping to hear.

– ALEXA –

I didn’t really know what I was expecting when Nolan opened the door. All I knew by the look in his eyes and the heart melting grin on his face was that he had done something very sweet for me, but what I saw was
nothing
that I’d ever expected him to do.

Nolan has the whole living room and dining room area set up like a picture out of a wedding magazine. The ceiling is draped with beautiful white swags, different sized candles are lighting the room, stunning white accented flower arrangements are placed on the tables…I’m speechless. It’s over the top gorgeous.

“What do you think?” Nolan comes up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist.

Overwhelmed by the situation, and the fact that in between his crazy work schedule he did this all for me, I’m flooded with emotion. With tears filling my eyes, I tilt my head up to look at him as I say, “It’s beautiful, babe.”

He leans down to kiss me gently, and my hand rests on his cheek as he does. Releasing me from his hold, and turning me around to face him, he explains, “It kills me to know that I can’t be there to help you with the wedding planning, so I wanted you to know that I care and that I’d be there with you at every appointment and helping with every choice you needed to make if I could, but I can’t…so this is my plan B. This is my input and vision of what our reception should look like.”

The tears that have been welling in my eyes are now falling down my face. Just when I think that Nolan can’t get any more perfect, he does. What man goes through this much hassle to make sure his fiancé feels loved and taken care of? This one does. Mine.

“It’s perfect,” I tell him, turning back around and facing it all again.

Resting his hand on my lower back, he escorts me to a small single tiered cake sitting on a table that is blanketed with white and pink rose petals.

“This is my favorite part of it all,” Nolan says with an excited grin.

“The cake?” I question.

“This isn’t just any cake, doll,” he points out. “This is from Carlo’s Bakery.”

Are you kidding me?

“
The
Carlo’s Bakery? Like Buddy Valastro’s bakery…from Cake Boss?” I ask in shock.

His grin grows brighter as he nods his head yes.

“Yes, baby doll–
The
Carlo’s Bakery. This is just a little sample of the cake that he’ll be making us for our wedding.”

“How...? When…?” I’m at a total loss for words.

“I’ve got some connections.” He winks. “We’re all set. He has us scheduled for our wedding date. We just have to plan a day to go down to New Jersey to meet with him so that he can sketch out what you want.”

Having no words, and overcome with emotion, I leap into Nolan’s arms and push my mouth fiercely against his. With no hesitation, he lifts me up from my behind, letting my legs naturally wrap around his body. Our tongues glide with an immense amount of lust and passion as my hands tangle in his hair.

I’m so in love with this man that it takes my breath away.

– NOLAN –

With the amount of sulk she put up at the restaurant, I thought we’d at least get through dessert, but the way Alexa is showing her love and desire to have me right now...well, there’s no complaining on my part. My girl wants me hard and now, and I’m more than willing to give it to her.

Knowing that my old bedroom is stacked high with boxes and that the dining room table is covered with china more expensive than everything combined in this apartment, I set Alexa down on the kitchen island and start ripping off her clothes.

As soon as she gets my shirt and tie off, her mouth is on my nipples and her hands are down my pants. She’s so fucking hot right now that if I don’t get it together I’m going to blow before my cock even gets anywhere near her.

“Ahh…”

Alexa’s teeth clamp down around my nipple before pulling it into her mouth, soothing it with her gentle tongue. If this is what I get for getting her a Buddy Valastro cake, I’ll get her one every damn day of the week.

Holy fuck. She driving me wild!

When Alexa’s sweet little hands touch my rock hard cock, it’s my undoing. I grab her face delicately, but with authority, and bring it up to mine. With no second spared, my tongue slides into her mouth and claims what’s mine, tasting what I love. Alexa fists my hair with her hands, pulling my head back and giving herself full range of my entire neck. She claims it with passion, kissing and sucking the hell out of it, bringing me close to losing it. My girl is playing rough, and I’m loving every fucking second of it.

Moving her hands to my chest, Alexa pushes me back, shocking me with her force. With the most intense fuck me eyes ever, she hops off the counter and drops to her knees.

Holy shit. Marry me now.

My pants are already unbuttoned and hanging loosely on my hips, so in one swift movement my pants are down along with my briefs. Alexa grips my cock with one hand while the other clenches my ass. Glancing up with a sexy as hell smirk, she slides her sweet little mouth over my shaft.

“Oh yeah, baby doll,” I groan, taking a handful of her hair in my hands and gently guiding her head up and down my cock.

Between the moaning vibration from her mouth and the warm, wet softness of her tongue, I can feel the climb of ecstasy filling my body. Feeling myself flirting with the edge, I gently slide her back off of me. She glances up with a pleased grin, knowing how well she’s done. Although I’d love to just fuck the shit of her and see how loud I can get her to scream my name, tonight is supposed to be a reflection of our wedding night, and I want to mimic the sweet love we’re going to make instead.

Changing my body language from raging passion to sweet loving, I pull her body up close to mine. Our eyes melt into one another’s, and I’m immediately reminded of the immense amount of love that we share. Her mesmerizing green eyes burrow into mine and her breathtaking platinum blonde hair cascades beautifully over her silky creamed skin. Perfection doesn’t do Alexa justice.

Locking my mouth over hers, our tongues move slowly and sensually. Alexa’s hands run delicately up and down my spine as I slowly move her back to the side of the couch, then gently lay her down, covering her body with mine. My mouth slides along her jawline, down to her neck, then up behind her ear. The heat from my breath gets a sweet as hell moan from her mouth, making the desire to be inside of her rise even more.
