This is my new fic. I'm still writing my other one, I've just be SUPER busy with all the SOLE 4th Anniversary stuff. The event is this weekend, so after that I should have more time to devote to both of my SOLE fan fics. I came up with this story when I first heard that Brandon was leaving the show. This is basically how I saw/wanted Cole's exit (then ultimately return) to go. This chapter is very MATURE. Believe me this definitely earns it's M rating, so just fair warning. Okay without further ado, enjoy! =)
As the morning light breaks through their bedroom window, Cole wakes up and looks over at the gorgeous woman sleeping next to him. He really does wonder how he ever got so lucky. He has the two most wonderful girls in the world in his life, actually three, counting his mom. He leans over and kisses Starr on her cheek, she stirs and turns over to look at him. "Hey beautiful."
"Morning," she replies sleepily.
He leans over again and gives her a short sweet kiss on her mouth. "How'd you sleep?"
"Perfect, I always do when you're next to me."
"Yeah me too."
"What time is it?"
"Like 8:00."
"I love Saturdays, we get to sleep in." He starts to laugh, "What?"
"I like how we consider 8 sleeping in."
"Well that is what happens when you go to college and have a child at the same time."
"Very true. Speaking of our amazing daughter, should we go wake the birthday girl up?"
Ignoring his question, "God, can you believe it? She's going to be 2 today."
"I know, it's crazy. It seems like just the other day you went into labor. Then at the same time when I think of everything that has happened in the past two years, if feels like forever ago, ya know?"
"Yeah, I do. We've been through so much, not only in the past 2 years but just in the last few months as well."
"Yeah, we almost lost each other because I was a complete idiot."
"I didn't help the situation much either. But the important thing is we made it through, together. I for one personally think we are stronger for it."
"So do I. And with everything that has happened in the past 2 years, one thing has remained the same, our love for each other, and nothing and no one will ever change that."
Starr smiles and just leans over and kisses him. "Okay, well we should probably get this day started. How about you go check on the birthday girl and I will take a quick shower?"
"Sounds good."
Starr gets up and heads into the bathroom. Cole gets out of bed and as soon as he hears the water running he takes out his cell and dials a number. The person on the other end answers, "Hey!"
Markko, sleepy, "Hey man, you are aware that it is 8am on a Saturday, right?"
"I know. Starr is in the shower and I just wanted to check in to make sure everything is set for tonight."
"Yes, I already told you, I took care of it all."
"Just making sure. I need tonight to be perfect."
"It will be, I promise."
"Thank you so much man, I owe you."
"No, you don't owe me anything. I just love to see the two of you happy again."
"Yeah, me too… alright well I gotta go check on the birthday girl. See you later on?"
"Yes, I'll be there."
Cole hangs up the phone. He was so excited yet nervous for the surprise he had in store for both Hope and Starr tonight. He walks out of their room and across to the other side of the apartment to Hope's room. One good thing about Markko and Langston moving out was that Hope did not have to sleep in the same room with them anymore, more privacy. He slowly opened the door and found his precious angel still sound asleep, which was a little odd for her. She is usually up and begging for food by now. He walks over to her crib and just watches her sleep. For the second time that morning he begins to wonder how he ever got so lucky. He had thought he lost her forever, so the fact that she was right in front of him sleeping and breathing is the greatest miracle in the world.
Then he begins to think about how he almost lost Starr this past summer. They both made huge mistakes and wound up falling for other people. Well not exactly. Did he develop feelings for Hannah? Yes, he did but it was more out of gratitude, she did try to save his life. He is happy that his mother was able to help the troubled girl and that her parents finally came around and took her back home with them. He really did care for her, as a friend. Then there was James. Good 'ole James. He thinks about how much he couldn't stand him at all. Could anyone blame him? He was trying to come between him and the love of his life. Starr admitted to him that she had feelings for James, which really bothered him. However, they were able to work it out. He realized that though she felt something for James, she loved him and that she was with him, and he had to hold on to that. They both decided to just focus on them, so that is what they did. He is so happy that they are to a point where James and Hannah aren't an issue anymore at all. They realized that any feelings that they felt for anyone else was just because they were going through a rough time but they never stopped loving one another. They are even to a point where Cole and James can be in the same room and have a civil conversation, which makes Starr's life a hell of a lot easier. He knows that Starr still cares about James, as a friend, and he as accepted that. Who knows maybe somewhere down the line James and him could actually be friends too. Cole, chuckles at this idea, then decided to let his angel sleep for a while longer, it is her birthday after all and she probably won't be able to get a nap in during the day.
He walks back across the hall and into his bedroom. He hears the shower still running and an idea pops into his head. He walks into the bathroom quietly, not that Starr would be able to hear him anyway since she is singing at the top of her lungs, which he loves because he absolutely adores her amazing voice. He strips out of his clothes and pulls back the curtain and steps in the shower. He sneaks up behind his beautiful girlfriend and wraps his arms around her, which causes her to jump. "It's just me babe."
"You scared me."
"Sorry, I just thought you'd like some company." He moves her hair to the side and starts to kiss her neck.
She smiles "If the company is you, then yes…. Where's Hope?"
He lifts his lips from off her neck and whispers in her hear, "She's still sleeping. I guess she decided to allow mommy and daddy some play time before she has hers."
Starr laughs at this and turns in Cole's arms, facing him and wraps her arms around his neck. "Well I'm just going to have to give her extra cake today for being so kind."
"Sounds good to me."
Cole wraps his arms around Starr tightly and pulls her in as his lips crash to hers. He slips his tongue into her mouth to deepen the kiss. Starr starts to feel Cole's erection grow as things start to heat up between them, which makes her want him even more. Cole removes his slips from Starr's and moves them down to her neck. Starr throws her head back, giving him easier access. Cole brings is left hand up to cup Starr's right breast while he moves his mouth down Starr's neck and chest to her left breast. While his hand massages her one breast, he flicks his tongue on her right nipple, and then begins to slightly suck on it. This causes Starr to yelp in ecstasy. Cole smiles at this, knowing that he is the only man that has ever made her make that sound. As Cole moves his mouth to her other breast to give it the same attention, Starr reaches down and grabs Cole's erection, which causes him to yelp in return. He looks up at Starr and she smirks at him with a raised eyebrow. As she starts to stroke him, he puts his hand over hers to stop the motion. She looks at him somewhat confused, and he whispers right over her lips, "We don't want to end this party earlier." He kisses her, this time nice and soft and sweet. Things start to heat up quickly and he turns her around and pushes her up against the shower wall. He then picks her up and she wraps her legs around his waist. He stops kissing her and pulls his head back to watch her beautiful face as he enter hers and their bodies become one. The feeling of pure ecstasy courses through her body and across her face. Cole leans back in and kisses her on the lips as he moves slowly inside of her. He moves his lips to her neck once again, kissing and sucking, as he picks of the pace of his motions. They are both close to the edge, he can feel it. She whispers into his ear, sincerely, "I love you so much." This causes him to lift his head and look her dead in the eyes, "I love you too." With that he brings his lips back to hers as they both reach their climax. Their kisses muffle their moans.
They stay in that position, him still inside her with her legs around him, for a couple minutes, until they finally come down off the high of their orgasms. Starr unwraps her legs from his waist and he backs up and sets her down on the ground. He looks at her and leans in and gives her a sweet, slow, deep kiss which literally takes her breath away. He pulls away slowly, and they just stare into each others' eyes, for what seems like forever, and smile. Starr breaks the silence, "Okay, I better let you finish up in here while I go and check to see if our little escapade woke our princess up."
Cole laughs at this, "Okay."
Starr goes to step out of the shower, Cole grabs he arm, and she looks back, "What?"
"I just wanted to tell you that I love you, again… and give you this." He leans in and givers her a quick peck on the lips.
Starr smiles up at him, "I love you too." She turns and steps out of the shower.
Cole continues with his shower with a huge grin on his face thinking, for the third time this morning that he is indeed the luckiest guy in the world and that tonight is going to be amazing.
