Sunday:
Tori ran up and wrapped her arms around Blake's neck and they melted into a long passionate kiss. "You won." Tori whispered happily when they separated.
"Only cause of you." Blake whispered gazing into her eyes and running his fingers through her long blonde hair. Press started to gather around and ask questions. Tori gave Blake's hand a squeeze and then she made her way out of the crowd.
About ten minutes passed and Blake joined the rest of the gang near the storm chargers van. Hunter's race was up so they all went to the sidelines to watch. "Go Hunter!" Peyton and Tori yelled loudly when the gate was released and the riders were off.
Hunter, of course, finished first in two-fifty division and like Blake had been was surrounded by press. But as soon as they were done with their questions he made his way over to his friends and loving girlfriend. Tori saw Peyton make a funny face at him and Hunter grinned. He shot a look at Tori and pulled the ring box out of his beg. Tori nudged Blake who was watching the next set of racers line up and he turned around to see Hunter walking over to Peyton.
Peyton smiled at him and was about to give him a hug when he stopped her. Tori saw Peyton become all sorts of confused until Hunter dropped down on his knee and opened the ring box he held. Peyton's hand went over her mouth in shock. Blake and Tori couldn't hear what was being said but a few moments passed and Hunter jumped up and hugged Peyton spinning her around. Peyton kissed Hunter passionately and then they released each other.
Tori watched Peyton as she ran over to her and Blake. "He asked me! He finally asked me!" This made Tori and Blake both crack up laughing.
Tori calmed herself enough to give Peyton a hug. Blake too hugged Peyton and gave her a small kiss on the cheek. "Welcome to our wacky little family."
After that Dustin was in his freestyle competition and placed second. While not being first it still qualified him for the next rounds in a week.
"We should go celebrate!" Peyton said happily.
"Uh some of us aren't old enough." Marah said.
Peyton looked at Tori. "We're old enough!"
Tori shook her head. "Oh know I'm not waking up with my head in a toilet. Thank you very much."
"Oh come on please! Just this once!" Peyton gave her pleading eyes.
Tori looked at Blake and he smiled. "If you want to I will and we can both wake up with our head over the toilet. Or trash can depending how far we make it." Blake joked.
"See Blake's ok with it. Come on Tori don't be a spoil sport!" Peyton said brightly.
Hunter came over from behind Peyton. "What are you trying to do?"
"See if Tori will celebrate. We can buy the boos and go back to the hotel and have a party of our own."
"Last time I had a drink it didn't go so well." Hunter grimaced at the thought making Shane and Dustin laugh lightly.
Tori took and released a deep breath. "Ok only a few shots." Tori said. Peyton jumped up and down giddily.
"Yeah!"
"I swear if you talk me into anything like last time I'll kill you." Tori said seriously.
Peyton through her hands up defensively. "All I said was tattoo you said lets go."
"Yeah well you still said tattoo." Tori countered playfully.
Blake stepped in. "Wait that's how you got your tattoo?" He asked. Tori nodded. "You never told me that."
Tori shrugged. "You never asked. I guess you should know I am kind of a happy go lucky drunk. Right Peyton?"
"I came for a visit about a year and a half after Nathan left and Tori took me to a party. She got so wasted and then I mentioned something about getting a tattoo and Tori jumped up and said let's go." Peyton explained. "At first I didn't think she was serious but then afterwards I knew she was."
"I fell asleep while the guy tattooed me." Tori said laughing lightly.
"I practically dragged her home. And then the next day it was like nothing happened." Peyton said.
Tori scoffed. "My lower back hurt like a son of bitch and you say nothing happened."
Peyton pursed her lips to keep from smiling. "Is it my fault alcohol is like amnesia on you?"
Tori frowned at her. "Which is exactly why I don't drink anymore."
"Girls." Hunter stepped in. "Look a few shots isn't going to kill anyone, but only a few." Hunter said looking between Tori and Peyton. The both nodded in agreement. "Bro?"
Blake nodded. "Yeah! So what are we waiting for let's celebrate my brother giving away his manhood to the woman he loves." He joked. Tori punched his arm playfully. Blake saw her playful stern stare. "I mean let's celebrate a happy loving engagement." He corrected himself sarcastically.
Tori rolled her eyes and her and Blake headed off to load up their truck and head back to the hotel. Peyton and Hunter said they would call when they got in from the store. "So is that what you did?" Tori asked as Blake drove back to the hotel.
"What?" Blake asked.
Tori smirked. "Gave away your manhood?"
Blake chuckled. "Nah I was only kidding."
Tori giggled. "Yeah you better say that."
"Why you gonna punish me if I say any different?" Blake asked sardonically. Tori glanced over at him.
"Well I did bring special sleep wear for you, but if you'd rather not…" Tori said casually. Blake looked over and smirked.
"I was only kidding Tor." He said quickly with a small smile.
Tori nodded and smirked at what control she so had over him. "That's what I thought." She said smugly. The rest of the drive was silent.
Later that night:
Tori wobbled through the door of hers and Blake's hotel room. As soon as she was in she kicked off her shoes and collapsed back on the bed. "Ok no more alcohol for me ever again." Tori laughed.
Blake lay down next to her. "It didn't kill you." He muttered kissing her neck softly. Tori grinned to herself as her eyes closed softly.
"Blake I'm exhausted please don't do that." Tori protested weakly. Blake grinned and rolled on top of her. Tori opened her eyes and saw Blake smiling down at her. "Blake…" Tori giggled.
Blake leaned down kissing her lips tenderly at first and then Tori opened and Blake slipped his tongue in caressing hers. Tori's hands slipped Blake's jean jacket off and threw it to the floor. Tori scooted further back on the bed so her legs weren't hanging over, and Blake followed her not releasing her lips. Blake's hands went up Tori's shirt lifting it off of her. Tori and he quickly removed their pants and got comfortable under the blankets of their bed.
Tori trailed kisses down Blake's torso and Blake sighed pleasurably feeling Tori's lips rim around him. Tori bobbed up and down on Blake for a while and stopped pulling off and kissing back up to his lips. Blake flipped Tori and kissed her neck passionately massaging the flesh with his succulent lips. Blake paused for only a short time as he thrust into Tori's warm opening. Tori arched her back upwards accepting him fully and taking all of him in while she released a string of harmonious moans.
Blake continued to vigorously explore Tori while he kissed her neck and his hands worked the tender flesh of her breasts gently. "Oh Blake…" Tori whispered heavenly in Blake's ear.
He pulled away from her neck and took her lips in a heated kiss. Tori groaned blissfully into the kiss as she felt sensations chorusing through her. It felt like an all to short eternity for her as they continued. Blake too was feeling the pleasurable sensations running through him. He couldn't help how much he wanted to be with Tori all the time, and she didn't seem to mind much either.
Tori broke away from Blake's lips gasping for air as her muscles began to spasm and tighten and her whole body tingled in anticipation. "Oh god…" She whispered very faintly in bliss as her eyes closed tightly.
Blake dropped to her neck and kissed there as he felt himself on the verge of exploding and not long after he did. Tori released at the same time and her whole body relaxed. Tori sighed both in happiness and exhaustion as Blake collapsed on top of her and then pulled out and rolled off of her. Tori was taken off guard when Blake grabbed her and pulled her over so her torso was somewhat rested on his and he could look into her beautiful eyes.
"I love you Blue." Blake said quietly giving her a quick peck on the lips. Tori smiled softly and kissed him with fervor and intense heat for only a brief moment.
"I love you too Thunderboy." She giggled. "Ok I'm a little loopy right now so don't hold this against me in the future, but god that was the best sex we've had since this afternoon." She joked.
Blake laughed. "Hey that's my line." He complained playfully.
"But I said since this afternoon, usually you say over all." Tori countered.
"Good point." Blake chuckled. "We should probably sleep now. It's late and I have practice in the morning."
Tori nodded. "Yeah. I'm exhausted." Blake loosened his grip on Tori and she snuggled so her head was rested on his chest and his arms were wrapped tight around her. They fell asleep content and comfortable together.
The Drive Home:
A week or so later:
Tori was in the center seat with Rox on the passenger floorboard upfront with her and Blake. "I can't believe you guys said no." Tori said.
"Well what they wanted us for would keep us away for months at a time. Sticking with Kelly we pretty much chose our own riding schedules." Blake said. Tori rubbed his chest affectionately and sighed.
"But Blake…"
"No buts. We decided together all three of us that we didn't want to be away from the people we cared about for months on end." Blake said affirmation in his tone.
"But…"
"What did I say about that word?" Blake teased. Tori sighed in playful disgust.
"Fine then I will just stop talking." She said smugly.
"Ok we don't have to go to the extreme here." Blake countered playfully.
Tori shook her head. "Obviously we do cause that word is a big part of my vocabulary."
"Ok you can say it as long as it has nothing to do with that sponsorship deal." Blake said giving Tori a firm squeeze in his warm arm embrace. Tori rested her head on his shoulder and then patted the passenger seat with her hand. Rox jumped up and rested her head on Tori's lap. Tori sighed contently petting Rox and resting in her husband's arms.
"Ok fine. I wont say anything else about the sponsorship deal. So have you guys decided about that article offer?" Tori asked. After all three placed first in their respective fields winning Nationals they were approached by a writer for down 'n' dirty magazine and offered an article on Storm Racing.
Blake nodded slightly. "Yeah we were thinking that we would probably do it. I mean Kelly's shop would get a lot of publicity that way and us. It would be cool."
"You know you could've had all that already if you had just signed with…"
"I didn't want to Tor. Factory blue would've kept me away from you and besides I wanted to finish college." Blake said. Tori nodded her head.
"I know it's just I feel like you're missing out on all these great things cause of me." Tori said. "Well partially."
Blake chuckled softly. "You are a great thing. I'm not missing anything. I have you and that is all I could want in my life. If I had an accident and was restricted to a wheel chair the rest of my life it would all be ok because I would have you with me."
Tori smiled and huffed a slight giggle. "If you say so then who am I to argue with that?" She said sweetly.
Blake kissed the crown of her head and things in the cab of the truck fell silent. Tori fell asleep with Rox's head rested in her lap and Blake's arm wrapped tight around her shoulder.
