Only staring at me, she remarked, “Well shit, happy birthday to me, handsome.” Wiggling her eyebrows, she gazed at my elegant suit, similar to what Beast wore in the Disney movie.
I grinned, walking up the rickety steps slow and steady so she could get a good look at me. Nothing was better than turning Bailey on.
“What’s with the getup?”
Placing her gift beside the swing, I sat down next to her, and pulled her into my lap.
“I’m going to get you all wrinkly.”
“Like I give a fuck,” I rasped, needing the warmth of my girl in my arms.
She straddled my waist, not leaving any room between us. Grabbing her chin, I brought her pouty lips over to meet mine, kissing her like she was the only thing that ever mattered.
She was.
A soft moan escaped her lips into my mouth, making my dick twitch in my tight slacks.
“What’s gotten into you?” she breathed out against my lips. “You’re never one for PDA.”
“It’s my girl’s birthday.”
“That’s a mighty big package you have … does that mean I get everything I’ve ever wanted?”
I grinned, side-nodding to the present next to us. Knowing that wasn’t what she was referring to. “Go put it on for me, and you’ll find out for yourself.”
She smirked, puckering her lips. “Is it lingerie?”
“Fuck that. Like I would ever make you mine in this fucking shithole.”
“You’re the only guy I’ve ever met that can say something so romantic with the words fucking shithole in the sentence.”
“I live to please you.”
“That you do, Aiden Pierce.”
“Now go get dressed for me, Bailey Button. Not to be confused with belly button,” I teased.
“Ugh … how many times are you going to say that lame joke?”
“After today, who knows.”
Her eyes dilated and she bit her bottom lip. “Aiden, what are yo—”
“You’re wasting time.”
She grumbled, “Can I just have a hint?” Her hips rocked into my cock.
“Beauty, you’re dry fuckin’ the shit out of your hint right now.”
“Oh, I see.” She peered down at my tan vest, straightening up my gold tie. “We’re playing dress up I take it? Does that mean I’m Beauty?”
“You already are.”
She giggled, immediately reaching for the bag next to me. “I’ll be right back.”
“I’ll be waiting.”
Little did she know, this would be the last time she ever stepped foot into this sorry excuse for a house.
I sat there alone on the swing, swaying back and forth. Closing my eyes, letting my mind wander. Reflecting on how we got this far with all the obstacles we faced together and apart.
Every tear.
Every heartache.
Every disappointment and accomplishment.
That brought us together in the end.
Bailey was the best thing that ever happened to me. All that mattered was to make her happy, she was my sole purpose in this world. My gift sent down from my mother.
“You’ll find someone who will always be there for you.”
“I will?”
“Yes, I swear it.”
“How do you know?”
“Because, Aiden. I’ll personally send her your way. I promise.”
The sound of the door hinge tore me back to the present. I wasn’t nervous, hadn’t been up until this point. The second I saw Bailey emerge from the entryway moments later, wearing Belle’s gold princess gown, I nearly lost my shit.
She was stunning.
A goddess.
A vision that took my goddamn breath away.
Her long silky gloves went up past her elbows. Her brown hair was pinned up in curls on top of her head with the rest cascading down her back. The costume jewelry that hung from her neck and wrists reflected off the sun setting over the trees. Rendering me fucking speechless.
She was the spitting image of a Disney Princess. No longer the spunky little girl with pigtails, offering me the only food she had left all those years ago.
“This is too much, Aiden. Even for you.”
I twirled my finger, silently ordering her to parade around for me.
She blushed, hiding back a huge smile as she picked up the sides of her dress to sway her thin waist right to left. Spinning in a circle, letting the gown follow her every move effortlessly.
“Goddamn, Bailey … the things you do to me.”
She bit her bottom lip, “Ditto. So where are we going, Beast?”
I stood up, adjusting my cock in my slacks.
“Aiden!”
I was over to her in three strides, whispering in her ear, “I will never be able to watch Beauty and The Beast again without getting fuckin’ hard for you.”
She took my arm, trying to hide her bright red face in the crevice of my shoulder.
I laughed and kissed the top of her head, leading her down the stairs to my car. After helping her get in, I took one last look at her before shutting the door. Rounding the front of the car, never taking my eyes off her. I jumped into the driver’s seat, grabbed ahold of her hand, and slowly removed her left silk glove to place small kisses up her arm. Ending my wake right below her ear where I sucked her lobe between my teeth.
