As the week progressed by Monique finished putting all her new furniture in her new home and was packing for her flight for Atlanta which was in 2 days. She called Ashley and Lauren to come over and keep her company while Corbin was at practice.
"Monique!" Ashley called out.
"I'm upstairs in the bedroom." Monique shouted back before seeing her two best friends enter her bedroom.
"Okay I must say that the house looks amazing." Lauren said looking around the big room.
"Where are you going?" Ashley asked as she sat on the bed and looked at the packed suitcases.
Monique pulled a few more clothes out of her closet and drawers and began stuffing them in suitcases.
"I got the part for that television show, and I have to leave in a couple of days for Atlanta." Monique said after taking a deep breath.
"There is a lot of buzz going around about that show and you haven't even started filming yet." Lauren said looking at her phone.
"Monique, Corbin's game is next week. You're not going to be there?" Ashley asked and Monique shook her head.
"Damn, that's messed up. Did you talk to him about it?" Lauren looked up at her friend.
"Yeah, and he was upset but he understood. I haven't been separated from Corbin for a long time ever since we got married and we been married for four years. (They got married late in their first year of college, if you guys were confused.)
"Really? It didn't even seem that long. When are you guys having kids?" Ashley asked.
"No time soon, we're just really busy." Monique responded sitting on her bed.
"You and Corbin would have some sexy ass kids, you guys are a good looking couple." Lauren said and Ashley and Monique laughed.
The next day Monique woke up with a note on the night stand.
Good morning beautiful, this day is all about you and me. Come downstairs and join me with some breakfast. Love your husband.
Monique smiled and got out of the bed and slowly walked down the stairs to the kitchen to see Corbin over by the sink with his back turned towards her. Monique stood by the doorway of the kitchen and stared at the beautiful creature standing before her. She admired the muscles on his arm and how his skin glistened in the morning. She silently walked behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist and kissed his shoulder.
"Morning baby, I got your note." Monique said as Corbin turned around and faced her.
Corbin wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled Monique close to him and began to kiss her on the lips softly.
"What did you cook?" Monique said once she pulled away and started walking towards the oven and began looking at all the pots and pans.
"I made you eggs, bacon, hot grits just like you like them and cinnamon rolls." Corbin responded showing her all of his lovely cooked dishes. "Sit down at the table."
Monique walked to the dining room and sat down in one of the chairs. Shortly Corbin followed with two plates in his hands and put one plate down in from of Monique. She took a whiff of the delicious meal before her and a smile appeared on her face. Corbin sat down next to her and began to eat as Monique just stared at him with a smile on her face.
"Baby eat your food before it gets cold." Corbin said looking at his wife.
Monique gently grabbed Corbin's hand, "you're a good husband you know that?"
Corbin smiled and took Monique's hand and kissed it. "I just want you happy."
They sat there and ate till both of their plates were cleared. "I'll go do the dishes while you get dressed because I am taking you out today."
"Corbin you don't have to do all of that." Monique said getting up from the table.
"But I want to, now scoot." Corbin said before walking into the kitchen with the dirty plates in his hands.
Monique ran upstairs and began taking her shower. She got out with a towel wrapped around her wet body and began to dry off herself and her hair. She then walked to her walk in closet and looked through her choice of clothing to wear for the day. She pulled out her outfit (I have a few looks on my bio page, you can check out the links there. I love fashion sorry.)
Monique heard water running and figured that Corbin was in the shower. She begins to spray on her perfume and then lotion her body. After an hour of prepping Corbin and Monique were both ready. They met back downstairs by the front door.
"You look beautiful." Corbin said kissing Monique and grabbing her hand. He then looked down at her shoes, "Babe, you wore heels?"
"Yeah, don't they look nice?" Monique smiled looking down at my shoes.
"They look wonderful but I wanted to go horseback riding. I packed us a bag with our swimming things so we can go to the beach later." Corbin said grabbing the bag on the floor.
"I'll be fine, I can ride a horse with heels on, and I did it before didn't I?" Monique winked at Corbin before walking out of the house, leaving Corbin astonished. (If you don't have a dirty mind at all then you will not understand that last line and the sexual content coming from it.)
They pulled out of the driveway and headed to Sunset Ranch Hollywood. Stopping at a red light, Corbin turned and looked at Monique who was making weird faces in her mirror.
"What are you doing?" Corbin laughed.
"Sorry, I'm going to miss you while I'm gone. We haven't been separated ever since we got married." Monique rubbed her husband's face.
The light changed to green and Corbin continued driving, "I'm going to miss you too but I'll call you and face time you every day."
Monique smiled and they continued driving until they pulled up to a dusty dirt road, reaching their destination. After finding a space in the not-so full parking lot, Corbin walked over to Monique's side of the car and let her out. She began to sniff the air and smiled.
"Smells like animals." Monique said and laughed.
Corbin held her hand as they walked into the ranch and signed up for some horses. Soon the instructor came out and took Monique and Corbin out back where all of the horses and ponies were. As they walked around Monique saw all of the horses in their stables. Some was picking their head out and some were lying down. There was this black horse that really caught Monique's attention and she walked over to his stable.
"This is Shadow, he's one of our oldest horses here and no customer ever seems to want to take him for a ride." The instructor explained.
"No one has ever taken him out?" Monique asked concerned.
"I do when I'm free but other than that no." The instructor informed us.
"I want him. Babe can we ride this one together?" Monique asked Corbin.
"Yeah if that's okay with the instructor." Corbin looked at the lady who nodded.
Monique began rubbing the horse's head and then moved back so that the instructor could take Shadow out of his stable. She opened it and told him to come out. Shadow slowly walked towards Monique and stood there.
"He's waiting on you to get on." The instructor said as she put the saddles on.
Monique grabbed the hook and climbed on top of the horse. Corbin pulled out his camera and then took a picture of Monique and the horse. He put his camera away and climbed on top of the horse sitting behind Monique and wrapping his hands on her waist.
The instructor gave them directions and showed them how to ride a horse. She then came out of the ranch riding another horse and they began to walk the trail.
"Baby this is really romantic, look at all the beautiful scenery." Monique said.
"I'm glad you're enjoying it. I just want to treat you with some fun before you leave." Corbin said before he kissed her neck.
"Corbin please don't kiss my neck. You know what that does to me." Monique said as she pulled her head away from her husband.
"Why not?" He asked before he placed his hands on her thighs and rubbed them.
He then began to lick her neck with his tongue. Monique tensed up because of what Corbin was doing to her but they continued riding. After almost an hour of riding, they returned back to the ranch and put Shadow back into his stable.
"Is it okay if I come visit him from time to time?" Monique asked the instructor.
"Yeah that's cool; he needs more interaction with people anyway." The instructor said.
The couple left and began heading down to BOA Steakhouse. "I don't stink." Monique smiled after smelling herself.
"I know you smell really good." Corbin licked his lips before looking at her.
They pulled into the restaurant and into valet parking. Monique saw the flashes from the paparazzi and they were taking pictures of her so she hid her head. The owner of the restaurant came out and shooed the paparazzi away as Corbin guided Monique into the restaurant. They were seated at a table.
"You okay?" Corbin asked his wife.
"Yeah I'm fine." Monique responded before their server came over and began to take their order.
"So tell me more about this show baby." Corbin said.
"Well it's about four best friends living under one roof and they're just going through life together. And my character is very headstrong and she knows what she wants in life, she has an amazing job working at a law firm and doesn't take any shit from anyone." Monique explained just as the food was coming.
"Do you know who you're co-stars are?" Corbin asked before taking a bite out of his steak. "No, I'm hoping that when I get there I'll find out."
"If you want I can drop you off at the airport in the morning before I head off to practice if you want." Corbin took another bite out of his meal.
"Yeah that'd be cool." Monique responded.
They enjoyed the rest of their meal laughing and talking until they decided that it was time to leave. Corbin paid the bill and he and Monique waited outside by valet parking to wait for their car. Monique turned her head and began talking to Corbin as the paparazzi started to snap pictures of them.
"Monique you look amazing tonight."
"Corbin how do you like being with the Lakers?"
"When are you two having a baby?"
It was question after question and all they did was smile and laugh with each other.
"Can we just get one picture?" One man asked as the couple's car pulled up.
Corbin wrapped his arm around Monique's waist and they smiled and took the picture before jetting off in Corbin's car. Monique looked at her watch and it read 5:00.
"I didn't realize we were out for so long." She said looking at Corbin.
"Yeah but there is one more place I want to take you." Corbin said and Monique looked at him as they rode in silence.
Corbin pulled up to the parking lot of a beach and got out of the car. He grabbed a bag from the trunk as Monique got out of the car and stood by her door. Corbin closed the trunk and walked over to Monique. He watched the wind blow through her hair as they began to walk towards the sand hand in hand.
"Oh wait a second." Monique said before she took off her heels and held them in one hand as she and Corbin walked through the sand to find the perfect spot.
After finding a spot close to the water, Corbin and Monique sat on a blanket watching all of the other families and people on the beach.
"I've always loved going to the beach." Monique said as she took off her jacket and stared at the water.
Corbin lay down on the blanket and Monique snuggled up next to him.
"You are the best husband any woman could ask for, did you know that?" Monique smiled at Corbin as she rubbed his chest.
"Well no I've never been told that before." Corbin joked before Monique sat up laughing.
"I love you a lot." Monique said as before kissing him passionately on the lips. "Let's go home."
Well I hope you liked it, this one was a little longer. I'll try to update some of my others stories tonight because I know you guys have been waiting but let me know what you think thanks.
