“Your phone number is the same as your old phone; you know the one you threw away?” he smirked. “Who just throws away their phone?” he shook his head.
I playfully smacked him on his arm, “I’m crazy remember?”
He laughed and kissed me on the head. I turned the phone on and instantly there were text messages from all my friends wishing me a happy birthday.
A text from Peyton read, “Happy birthday bitch, nah, you know I love you, call me soon, we have a lot to catch up on.” By the way have lots of birthday sex you deserve it.”
I shook my head and laughed. Connor knew how Peyton was so he didn’t even ask what she said, he could just tell by my reaction.
He took the phone from my hand and set it on the bed while he handed me the next box. I smiled as I bit my bottom lip anxiously unwrapping, excited like a child on Christmas morning, the perfect silver square box. I removed the top and inside sat a stunning silver bracelet with the infinity symbol encased in diamonds. I gasped as I ran my finger along the diamonds.
“Connor, I…I love it. This is the most beautiful gift anyone has ever given me.”
He took the box from my hand and took out the bracelet. He unclasped it and put it on my wrist. “I love you, not only for who you are, but for the person I have become because of you. This is my forever to you.”
The uncontrollable tears that seemed to plague my face recently started their trail down my cheeks, but were quickly stopped by Connors response.
“Oh no you don’t, there will be no tears on your birthday, whether they’re good tears or not; I forbid it, do you understand Miss Lane?” I couldn’t help but break into laughter at his commanding voice.
I wrapped my arms around him as tight as I could and met his mouth with mine. He responded, but quickly broke our kiss, “You still have one more present to open.”
I smiled as I leaned back on my pillow. “You spoil me.”
He handed me the long box as he smiled. I took the box and with the same finesse, I un-wrapped it like the others. I took off the top and stared at the voucher inside. I looked at Connor as my eyes started to swell.
“Don’t do it, no tears.”
I couldn’t help it this time, my emotions were too far fallen for inside the box were 2 tickets to Paris. As he looked at me, he gently wiped the tears from under my eyes.
“I know your dream is to go to Paris, I saw it on that list you hid in your desk and as soon as the doctor says it’s ok, we will be on the first flight there for however long you want to stay.”
I couldn’t believe he remembered what was on my bucket list from that brief minute he looked at it. I was overwhelmed at the love I was receiving from this man who not too long ago couldn’t bring himself to love anyone. I straddled him and cupped his face in my hands.
“Thank you for everything, I love you Connor Black,” I said as I kissed him and showed him for the next two hours how grateful I was.
The day was perfect. All days were perfect when I spent them with Connor. It didn’t matter if we were held up in a cave in the middle of nowhere, it would still be perfect. Mason and Landon were taking us to a swank bar in downtown Los Angeles for my birthday. They had it planned before we knew Connor would be here, but he was game and said it sounded like fun.
Chapter 34
We entered the bar as Mason pulled us through the crowd of people to a booth in the back. The side we sat on was the one with the stage and a piano; it’s the stage where the local bands perform. But there was no band playing tonight; it was a free for all for any patron who wanted to show off their talent on stage.
We sat in the round booth, Connor on one side of me and Landon on the other. A redheaded waitress, dressed in tiny black skirt that barely covered her ass and a tank top that was exposing her entire breasts, came over to our table to take our drink orders. Landon and Mason ordered a couple of martinis each and Connor ordered a scotch. I could tell Connor was uncomfortable because she was eyeing him up and down instead of taking my order, and he was afraid of another comment like the one at the seafood restaurant. He looked at me and could see me gearing up to say something, so he stepped in and put his arm around me.
“My girlfriend will have a glass of white wine,” he smiled at her. She looked me up and down.
“Oh, I thought she was with one of them.”
I shifted in my seat as Landon pulled me in closer to him. “Sweetheart, she’s with all three of us and you should see the things she can do to us at the same time, OMG, it’s incredible.”
She gave him a dirty look and walked away as the three of us did a high-five in the air and Connor sat there shaking his head. I leaned over and snuggled into him, taking in his scent that already was making me ache.
“Don’t be jealous sweetheart; you know I love you more.”
He laughed as he took his hand that was resting on his lap, placed it on my bare thigh and slowly moved it up my skirt, stopping as soon as his fingers reached the lace on my panties. My body shook and shivered as he grinned. The waitress brought our drinks and never took her eyes off me as she set them down on the table.
Mason leaned over, “I think she likes you.” I laughed and took a sip of my wine.
“Just stick to one glass tonight. I don’t think you should be drinking while taking that medication plus you have your injections in the morning,” Connor said as he moved his fingers passed the lace and was now touching bare skin. I jumped at his touch.
“Thank you for your concern. I will take that under advisement,” I said with gritted teeth.
Mason and Landon excused themselves as they saw a couple of friends across the bar. Connor smiled as they walked by, then took my chin in his hand and turned it toward him. “Do you want me to stop?” he asked seductively. My breathing started to increase as he lightly rubbed the area that was now pulsating for him.
“What are you going to make me do? Come right here in the bar in front of everyone?” I asked almost breathless.
He gave me that seductive smile and twisted my hips so I was sitting sideways facing him in the booth.
“That was my plan, but you have to act like nothing is happening.”
He gently inserted his finger as I bit by bottom lip. I looked around the bar to see if anyone was paying attention, but everyone was drinking, dancing and carrying on conversations. My skin ignited and my heart raced as he inserted another finger and began rubbing my aching spot with his thumb. “Oh fuck,” I said as I buried my head into his neck.
I wrapped my arm around him to make it look like I was hugging him as he moved his fingers in and out. “Why are you doing this to me?” I asked as he was starting to bring me to orgasm.
He brought his lips to my ear, “Because I like pleasuring you and I know you want it. You’re so wet Ellery.”
My body was preparing enter oblivion and he knew it; he could feel it. “Remember you need to be quiet.”
Easy for him to say; he’s not the one getting off in a public place, and it’s not so easy to keep quiet when Connor Black is bringing you to the edge of an orgasm. I tightened my hand around the back of his neck, digging my fingers into his delicate skin, my mouth was on his neck lightly nipping at it with my teeth; he started to groan. Game on, it was payback time.
My body reached the point of no return as I squeezed my eyes shut and buried my mouth deep into his neck and released over his fingers. I nipped on his ear lope which sent him over the edge. As soon as he was sure my orgasm was over he grabbed my hand and slid out of the seat.
“What are you doing? Where are we going?” I laughed as my legs were shaking uncontrollably.
He led me down a narrow hallway and opened a door that led to a closet. He led me inside and then closed the door. The room was dark and the only light that I could see was the light coming from underneath the door. He lifted up my skirt and pulled down my panties. I reached for his pants as he already had them half way down. My back was pushed against the door as he went down and joyfully licked my aching area. I ran my hands through his hair as he kept going around with his tongue, licking and sucking, making it unbearable to control myself. He stopped and inserted himself inside me as he positioned his hands on each side of me against the door and quickly moved in and out of me till he released and filled my insides full of his come.
