Page 5 of Not Afraid to Trust Again

When we entered my house, Elise took her shoes off at the door, went into the living room, and sat on the couch. I kicked my boots off at the door, put my hat on the table, and entered the living room.

“Here’s the remote. And you are lucky I already had some steak, or you would have had to get one from the store.”

She cut her eyes at me. “You mean you would have.”

She gave me a playful smile, and I shook my head.

“Do you want something else to go with it?”

“If you have some fries, I’ll take some.”

“I got you. Relax, and I’ll bring the food to you.”

She nodded, and I left the living room. Since I planned on eating steak for dinner, I already had some sitting in the fridge. I grabbed that and the fries from the freezer and got to work.

I took my time chopping up the steak and adding some onions to the pan. While that cooked, I put the French fries in the air fryer. I knew she was hungry, and I didn’t want to take too long to feed her.

I technically was on the clock, so I prayed no calls came through until we were ready to part ways, even though I was never ready to part ways with her.

I thought about her appointment while I cooked the food.

Hearing our baby’s heartbeat sent me into a range of emotions, and I wasn’t afraid to express that because that was how comfortable Elise made me feel.

I wanted to tell the world, but I would wait like I told her I would.

I couldn’t wait to see her belly grow as our baby grew.

Life was about to drastically change for us, and fast, and I needed to put some things into place before the baby came.

I wanted Elise and the baby to be taken care of, whether or not I was here on Earth.

I didn’t have plans of her being a single mother, but regardless, she wouldn’t have to worry about anything when it came to our baby.

“You want water or juice?” I called out.

My house had an open floor concept like my brother’s did, so she could hear me. When she hadn’t answered, I looked toward the couch and noticed she had fallen asleep.

I shook my head and chuckled. She looked so peaceful snuggled up on my couch, and the urge to ask her to move in with me hit me hard, but I wasn’t sure if she was ready for that.

If she wasn’t, I at least wanted her to be here more often, or I would stay at her house.

I would do whatever made her most comfortable.

Once the food was done, I put it on plates, grabbed bottles of water, and went back into the living room.

I placed the plates on the table and went into the small hall closet to get the dinner trays I used.

I had a table in my kitchen, but I hardly used it since I was usually home alone.

The only time I used that table was when my parents came over.

After setting the trays up, I put our plates on them then woke her up.

I leaned down and kissed the freckles on her cheeks.

“Elise, wake up.”

When she didn’t move, I kissed her again on the lips.

“Baby, wake up. The food is ready.”

She stirred and cracked one eye open. She looked like she wanted to punch me in the face until she opened the other eye, and her gaze fell on the food.

“Why didn’t you say the food was ready?” she asked as she stretched.

“I did. You just didn’t hear me because you were ready to fight me.” I chuckled and sat next to her when she sat up.

“Because I was sleeping so good. This baby has me exhausted already.”

“Here. Use this.” I passed her the hand sanitizer because baby girl wasn’t wasting any time eating her food. “My baby is making sure you get your rest, so you can grow him or her.”

She squirted the hand sanitizer in her hand then put some in mine. I watched her as she rubbed her hands together then shook them.

“Well, I hope it doesn’t stop me from working because I have to work as much as I can until the baby comes. Speaking of that, I know it’s early, but are you going to take some time off when the baby comes?”

I got distracted when she picked up her steak sandwich, took a bite, and moaned. I watched her for a few seconds as her moans continued, and she shimmied a little as she chewed.

“If that’s the reaction you’ll have every time I cook for you, I better start doing it more often. How am I supposed to eat with a hard dick, Elise?” My voice lowered an octave.

Her eyes darted down to my dick, and she smirked. I almost snatched the food from her when she took another bite and moaned again. This time, it was louder than the first one.

“So, you want to tease me and shit? Don’t worry. You’ll be paying for that when this meal is over.”

“I’m looking forward to it.” She winked then went back to eating.

I had to focus on the shit on the television so I could finish eating.

“To answer your question, yes. I do plan on taking some time off. I want to be as hands on as possible. I’m also going to add you to my life insurance.”

She looked in my direction, still chewing her food. “What? Why?”

I finished chewing the food in my mouth. My dick still hadn’t gone down, and she noticed when her eyes traveled down then back up to my face.

I smirked then answered her question. “Because I’m going to always take care of you and my baby. My job is typically safe, but you never know what could happen to me out there, and I don’t want you to have to worry.”

Tears welled in her eyes. “Thank you. I pray for you every day to have a good and safe day.”

If my dick wasn’t already hard, it would have gotten hard with her telling me she prayed for me. I didn’t think hard dick and prayers went together, but to know she cared enough about me to talk to God about me turned me on.

“Thank you. I don’t know if we are there yet, so I’m not asking if you want to move in, but I want you here as much as possible. Or, if you want me with you, I can do that too. I just don’t want to miss anything. Once the baby comes, we’ll figure out what to do then.”

“How about we alternate between your place and mine? I’ll even make a drawer for you,” she suggested.

“Oh shit. I’m getting a drawer?”

I did a little dance, and she cracked up. I loved the way her face lit up when she laughed. It made her freckles look brighter. I didn’t know if that would make sense to anyone else, but it made sense to me.

“You’re so silly. Anyway, I don’t want you to miss anything either. I still can’t believe we are having a baby.” She picked up a fry and put it in her mouth.

Happiness exuded from her, and in turn, it made heat radiate through my chest.

“I can’t believe it either, but it’s happening. We are going to be the best parents we can be because we both witnessed what it was like to have good parents.”

Both of our parents were still together and had been for years.

They might have had their issues over the years, but they didn’t let it break them like some of their friends had.

I had friends in school whose parents didn’t make it as long as mine did.

My parents always showed my brother and me unconditional love.

It didn’t matter what they had going on behind closed doors; nobody knew about it.

I admired them for keeping their private life private and for making things work.

“That we did.” She smiled.

We both fell silent as we finished up our food. So far, I hadn’t had any calls, which was good because I had plans, and I wasn’t trying to go back to work with blue balls.

“That food hit the spot,” Elise said as she rubbed her stomach. “It was so good.”

I wasn’t a professional, but I knew how to cook a few things.

“Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I got something I want you to do though.”

“What’s that?”

“Go get your sexy ass in my bed while I put this stuff in the kitchen.”

My dick was ready to go to its happy place. Her cheeks reddened as she pushed a few curls behind her ear.

“Okay.”

I gathered our plates as she stood. My eyes zoomed in on her ass in her jeans. Kanae was so damn fine to me. She wasn’t thick, but she had enough ass for me. Everything about her was perfect in my eyes.

When she was out of my sight, I took the stuff into the kitchen. I didn’t want to waste too much time, so I put everything in the dishwasher. After turning it on, I turned the kitchen light off and quickly walked upstairs to my bedroom.

My feet stopped moving when I entered to find her in the middle of the bed, naked as the day she was born. I noticed the slight pudge of her stomach, and my chest swelled. I was really gonna be someone’s father.

The sun beamed through the window, and it was too damn bright for my liking, so I closed the blackout curtains. Anxious eyes followed me around the room while I turned on the small lamp and took my clothes off. I needed to be able to see the faces she made every single time she came undone for me.

I got in bed but didn’t get on top of her like I wanted to. I sat next to her, and my dick jumped when I looked into her whiskey-brown eyes. They were filled with need.

“I’m going to give you what you need, baby. Do you trust me?”

“I do.”

“I want to try something, but if it makes you uncomfortable at any moment, let me know. Okay?”

An idea came to me as I loaded the dishwasher. The first time I tried to handcuff her, she wasn’t with it, but I wanted to try it again. I wanted her to let go of all her inhibitions and trust me enough to know I would never hurt her.

“Okay,” she whispered.

I reached into the bedside table and got my other set of handcuffs out. Her eyes widened, but she didn’t freak out, so we were off to a good start.

“Are you okay with this?”

She licked her lips and glanced around the room before she looked back at me.

“Yes.”

The strain in her voice almost made me change my mind, but I wanted her to learn to trust me more.

I leaned down and kissed her. Her lips always looked puffy, and they were one of my favorite things about her.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. I’m sure, Kyden.”

I smiled at her because I knew she was serious any time she said my name.

“Again, if you get uncomfortable, let me know. Tell me your safe word.”

“My what?”

We had never established or needed a safe word, but I felt it was imperative in this moment. I didn’t want to make any mistakes with this, and having her freak out on me again wasn’t something I wanted or needed.

“Safe word—a word that means I release you no matter what.”

Her teeth captured her bottom lip, and she glanced around the room.

“Um, cherries.”

I chuckled. “You sure?” She nodded. “Okay, cherries it is.”

I leaned down to kiss her again, then I grabbed both of her arms and held them over her head. She watched my every move as I put the cuffs on her wrists and locked them.

“You good?”

I was anxious to get inside of her, but I wanted to make sure she was good. She nodded.

“Good.”

I climbed on top of her, and my dick rested against her thigh. I leaned down to kiss her again. I could never get enough of her lips.

The kiss was slow and soft. Her eyes were closed, but mine were open, studying her freckles.

She was able to move her arms but kept them over her head.

Her eyes popped open when I took her cuffed hands into mine.

A second later, she closed them again as our kiss continued.

I used my free hand to run it down her body. Her skin was smooth like butter.

She moaned when I massaged her breasts. I broke the kiss but kept her hands in mine as I trailed kisses down her body. With each kiss, she moaned.

When I got to her breasts, I kissed each one before sucking on each nipple. I traced the trail of freckles from her chest down to her stomach. To me, they were like the stars leading to her galaxy. I didn’t need them to show me the way, but I still kissed over each spot.

Her legs opened wider when I reached the magic between her legs. I had to let go of her hands because I needed mine to open her treasure. Fat, wet pussy lips greeted me. I licked my lips before diving in.

“Shit, Ky,” she cried out as her hips lifted from the bed.

Kanae’s pussy was always so fucking fresh and wet. I held her lips open so I could attack her clitoris. The shit was big, and I loved it. I stuck two fingers inside of her and groaned when her walls tightened around them.

I removed my mouth and kissed each of her thighs as I continued to finger fuck her. When I felt her walls tighten again, I stopped.

“Ky. Why did you stop?” she whined, and it made me even harder.

“Because when you cum, I want it to be on my dick.”

I kissed her pussy and removed my fingers. They were soaked, and I licked every drop of her juices off them. I guess the saying was true about pregnant pussy, because she was wetter than normal.

I moved back up until we were face to face. I stuck my tongue out, and like the nasty girl she was, she sucked it, moaning as she savored the flavor of herself.

“Nasty girl.” I slid inside of her and bit down on my back teeth. “Fuck, girl.”

I leaned back and grabbed her neck. Her shit was trying to take me out, and I wasn’t ready for that yet.

She squirmed under me and smiled. With a firm grip, I stroked in and out of her.

Her mouth opened, but no sound came out as I pumped in and out of her with fervor.

She moved her arms but remembered that her hands were cuffed together, so she put them on my chest and rubbed up and down.

“Kyden.”

“Elise, I’m about to cum, baby.”

“Me too. Shit.” She tucked her top lip between her teeth.

I leaned down and kissed her with my hand still wrapped around her neck. My hips moved in slow circles, hitting every inch of her pussy. My grip tightened on her neck, and I closed my eyes to relish the release that was coming. I needed her to cum first though.

I felt it when she tightened and splattered her shit all over my dick and the bed. When she wrapped her hand around the front of my neck, my dick let off without warning.

“You know I love when you do that shit,” I said as my hips pumped into her. I wanted every drop inside of her.

I kissed her cheek and reached for the key to uncuff her.

“Do they hurt?” I asked as I massaged her wrists.

“No. I do need to use the bathroom though.”

I kissed her hands and released them. I got out of bed and helped her to her feet. While she was in the bathroom, I changed the sheets and got back in bed. I needed a nap before I had to get back to work. Even if I didn’t get any calls, I still needed to ride through the town to check on things.

When she came out of the bathroom, she got back in bed and snuggled next to me. I kissed the top of her head and closed my eyes. Hopefully, we could go another round before the day was over.
