Story: Someone Like You

I looked at Casimir and giggled.
“Sounds about right, Son,” Casimir stated. “Listen, we’re going to miss you. But I need you to take very good care of your nana and pa-pa, and your abuelo and abuela. You got that?”
Again, CJ bobbed his head, and his head full of curls shook. I had seen baby pictures of Casimir, and our son was the spitting image of his father.
“I’ll miss you, little big guy,” Casimir told our son as he kissed him once more. He turned back to me and instructed our son, “Give mommy kisses.”
I grabbed my baby boy’s face and covered it with kisses before I gave him one final sweet butterfly kiss.
“Good night, my sweet prince,” I told him as Casimir handed him back to my mother.
“You all have fun and enjoy your time,” Mama said as she juggled CJ from one hip to the next.
“We will. And you all have a safe flight home,” I told her.
“Will do. Oh, and Gigi and Cas?” Mama called out after she took a couple of steps.
“Yes, ma’am?” we responded as one.
“We’ll take two or three more of him,” she said with a teasing grin as she bounced CJ on her hip.
“Mama!”
“We’ll see what we can do, Mama Viola,” Casimir called out as my mama walked away, chuckling.
“Don’t encourage her.” I scolded him with a smack to his chest.
My husband grabbed me in his arms and pulled me close. Bending his head, he kissed my lips and asked, “When are you going to be ready to tell them about our princess on the way?”
He licked along the seam of my lips and grabbed my butt. Casimir pressed his erection at the apex of my thighs and made my body hum.
“After the honeymoon,” I moaned.
We learned that I was pregnant a month ago when I was only six weeks pregnant. This week, just as I turned ten weeks, we learned the gender of our baby. I didn’t want that to distract from the wedding, so we agreed to keep it under wraps for now. Our only focus now was our honeymoon and enjoying one another.
The plan was to return to our hotel suite tonight at the top of the beach, and tomorrow, leave for a private villa for the next week and a half.
My husband knelt and scooped me up into his arms. I released a high-pitched shriek, and our guests laughed, clapped, and whistled as I threw my arms around my husband’s neck.
Casimir carried me further down the beach, away from prying eyes. Their voices grew faint, and we were left with the sounds of the waves lapping at the beach.
“Elle, I love you now until the end of time.”
“And I will love you beyond this life and through the next one, Casimir.”
We stopped at the water’s edge, and my husband let me down. He bent his head, and with the water lapping at our feet, he slowly kissed me again.
My love for this man knew no bounds. I would risk it all for him again and again. For him, I would do it all again. My client. My friend. My lover. My husband. My forever.
The End
