Page 34 of Amelia's Daddy

I giggle for the rest of the afternoon on every ride until Daddy says it’s time to go home. It was the bestest day ever.

Chapter Fifteen

At the end of my first week on the island, I’m sitting in the bathtub playing one night while Daddy washes me. I’m chattering constantly, asking him questions about the daycare and what I can expect when he has to see clients.

Daddy is always patient with me, and tonight is no exception. He listens intently and answers all my questions, but he’s a bit quieter than usual. When he’s done washing me, he helps me out, dries me off, diapers me, and sets me on the floor in my nursery.

“I got you a new toy,” he tells me. He hands me a wrapped gift.

I grin wide. “Why?”

He shrugs and sits across from me on the floor, legs crossed. “I saw this and thought of you. No special reason.”

I tear into the paper and pull out a box. Excited, I open the box next. What falls into my hand is a set of nesting dolls. They’re bright rainbow colors like I love. “I’ve never had nesting dolls before,” I tell him.

“Open them.”

I open the first one and giggle when I find a slightly smaller one inside. It’s not surprising, just silly. “How many are there?” I ask.

“I don’t know. You’ll have to find out.”

I open another and another and another, laughing harder with each consecutively smaller doll. Finally I’m holding one that so small there’s no way I haven’t reached the end. I pop it open, but it’s not a doll that falls out. It’s a ring. It lands on the floor in front of me.

My fingers are shaking as I glance at Daddy before picking it up. “Daddy?”

“Is it too soon to ask you to marry me, Amelia?”

Tears form in my eyes and I shake my head. “No.”

He rises from his sitting position to take one knee in front of me. He eases the ring from my palm and reaches for my left hand. “Will you marry me, Amelia?”

I nod rapidly. “Yes, Daddy.” As soon as he slides the ring on my finger, I leap into his arms, knocking him backward so that he falls onto the carpet on his back.

He laughs as he pulls me over him. “I love you, Amelia. I think I’ve known that from a distance for a long time, but these past few weeks have solidified that feeling. I don’t want to let another day go by without making you mine.”

“I love you, too, Noah.” I straddle his chest and sit on him, lifting my hand to look at the ring. “It’s so pretty.”

He’s smiling broadly. “We don’t have to run to the justice of the peace or anything, but I want you in my bed, Amelia. I toss and turn every night while you sleep in that crib. You can still use it for naps, but from now on at night, you’ll sleep with me.” His hands rub up and down my back.

I plant my palms on his chest and grin. “I’d like that, Daddy. Maybe we should start that now.”

Daddy arches up off the floor, taking me with him as he rises to his feet.

I giggle when he rushes from the room. He wastes no time reaching his bed and dropping me onto the middle of the mattress from high enough that I bounce.

In seconds, he has my diaper off me, and he’s climbing over me. He looks down at me. “Are you ready for this step, Amelia?”

I flatten my palms on his pecs and up around his shoulders. “We’ve had sex before, you know.” It was at the doctor’s office last week. I’ll never forget it. “And I wasn’t a virgin or anything.”

He grins. “Yeah, but I told you it wouldn’t happen again until you were wearing my ring. Do you understand why, Baby girl?”

I shake my head.

“Because I already knew you would be the most important person in my life for the rest of our time on Earth. I also know that sex with you is going to be earth shattering every time. When we’re together, it means more than any sex I’ve ever had. You’re my life, Amelia. My Little. My woman. My world. I want to be certain you agree and feel the same way before I look in your eyes and slide my cock into you again.”

Tears run out of my eyes. His words are so sweet and filled with so much love. He’s intense, and I know he always will be when it matters most. “I love you,” I tell him again.

“I love you, too.” He bends down and kisses me. He kisses me often, but this time something is different. I can feel his love as he moans into my mouth and deepens the kiss.
