Page 70 of Be Your Forever
“Thanks, babes. She’s going to have the best life and even better people around her. You are going to play such an important role in this girl's life, Bri. I know she already loves you so much.”
I place my hand on her growing belly and whisper, “You’re so loved, baby girl. I can’t wait to meet you. Oh, and your parents are total horndogs, so be prepared to be grossed out.”
“Bee, stop that.”
“What? Am I wrong? All you have to do is walk around the house and Cas is practically drooling over you.” Avery snort-laughs and just shrugs her shoulders.
“I could say the same about you and Asher. You two go at it like rabbits.”
I flip my hair over my shoulder and toss her an innocent look. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Really? Does candle wax ring any bells for you?”
My face turns beet red, and I shift in my seat just thinking about that night. I called Avery the following day and gave her a summary of what happened.
“Oh, that? That was nothing.”
“Nothing, huh? Then why are you squeezing your thighs together and your pupils are blown?”
“I hate you.” I mock glare at her.
“You love me. Admit it, you two are just as big of horndogs as Cas and I.”
“Fine, you win.”
“Speaking of, howareyou and Asher?” She waggles her eyebrows at me, and I playfully push her shoulder.
“We’re good. He’s slowly starting to move his things in, and the sex? Avery, it's out of this world. The way he pays attention to my body? It’s like he’s committing it to memory so that he never forgets a single detail. I’m actually planning to surprise him later at work. I bought this silky, black wrap dress, and I plan to do my hair in big curls and wear absolutely nothing underneath.” I see Avery roll her eyes at me.
“Thanks for the details, Bri. I don’t think I’d survive without them.”
“Shut up. But seriously, though, Aves. I’m so happy. He makes me happy.”
“I’m so happy for you. You’re such an amazing, wonderful human and you deserve the world. I feel like I should threaten to chop his balls off if he hurts you. Ya know, like you did with Cas.”
“I still live by that threat, but go for it. Fair is fair.”
Avery and I scour Pinterest, creating endless boards of inspiration for her baby shower. My best friend isn’t one for extravagant things, so I offer to take as much of the load off her shoulders as I can. Iloveplanning shit like this, always have. And it feels even more special because it’s for my future niece.
I’m still reeling with the news that my bestie is having a girl. I’m putting together yet another Pinterest board when I realize it’s almost time for me to surprise Asher. I hop in the shower, making sure to wash and exfoliate every inch of me. By the time I step out of my scalding hot shower that even Satan himself wouldn’t be able to withstand, my skin is pink, but every inch of me feels as smooth as silk.
My body is thoroughly moisturized, my hair and makeup are on point, and I feel my body pulse with anticipation knowing my pussy is about to get destroyed by the man my heart can’t stop thinking about.
Who knew I’d be as into office sex as I am?
Well, okay. Office sex withAsher, specifically. This man has reignited my sex drive, and for that I’ll be forever grateful. Plus, this will be the first time I’m actually driving myself to the bar. What better way to celebrate that milestone than to have my man pound into me relentlessly? Everything seems to be falling into place, and I’m ready for what happens next.
Asher
I’ve been by to see Max multiple times, but this time is different. When Bri talks to her brother, I don’t want our relationship to override the conversation. I brought this up to Bri and she gave me the okay to talk to him about us.
Us.
It’s surreal to think that Bri and I are anusnow. When I walk into Max’s room, I’m surprised to see Cas.
“Hey, man, what’re you doing here?” I ask Cas.
“Well, Asher. Max and I are friends. And when you’re friends with someone, you hang out with them.” Cas smirks at me.Bastard.
