Chapter 13

"What," Karen sputtered.

"Marry me Bane."

"You can't be serious," she said turning in his arms to face him. "This is out of nowhere."

"So," he said kissing her head. "I love you. We already live together. We make a great team. I want to grow old with you."

"I love you too. This just shocked me."

He started playing with her hands. "Are you going to answer me Bane?"

"Yes."

"Well what's the answer," he asked as he turned her head to look into her eyes.

"I just did." Karen smiled as he realized what she had said. Shouting a yes he picked her up out off the couch and swung her around in his arms.

"You make me so happy," Karen said as she kissed him deeply. "Where's my ring?"

"Ring," Shannon said nibbling on her earlobe. "What ring?"

Karen pushed him away and stood with her hands on her hips. "What a half assed proposal Moore! You ask a girl to marry you and you have no bling. What am I going to do with you?"

Shannon knew by the twinkle in her eye that she was playing with him. "Bling? A little ghetto are we tonight? Let me see what I have." Shannon walked across the living room to the fireplace mantle. He picked up what she affectionately called his ugly vase and turned it over. She laughed as a box fell out.

"How long has that been there?"

"A while," he replied coming back over to her. Bending on one knee he opened the box. "Karen Bane will you marry me?"

"Of course," she said with a smile as he slid that perfect princess cut diamond onto her finger. He pulled her down onto his knee and kissed the breath out of her.

"You make me happy," Shannon said when they broke apart.

"Well, you make me crazy so we're even."

Shannon swooped in kissed her again hungrily. Her arms wrapped around his neck as their bodies collided together. He brought his hands down and lifted her up by her ass making her wrap her legs around him.

"Want to celebrate," he asked huskily in between placing loving kisses along her jaw line.

"What do you think," she replied arching into him.

Shannon headed towards the stairs still holding onto her. As they reached the top of the stairs he slammed her up against the wall to help him brace her as he ran his fingers down the buttons on her shirt.

"Moore," she moaned out as he spread the material and lavished the top swell of her breasts with his mouth.

"You always want more," he chuckled.

"Always," she said as she pulled his head back by his hair. "Take me to bed."

"My pleasure."

Pulling her off the wall and setting her on her feet, he pulled her into their bedroom. Stripping her shirt off, he immediately went to unhook her bra. Not one to hold back, Karen grabbed his shirt and ripped it from his body. Moving together with hands roaming they fell onto the bed.

Karen moaned loudly as he took her rose red nipple into his mouth. She arched as if he needed encouragement. She ran her hands through his hair as one of his hands made their way to the juncture of her thighs. He began rubbing her against the denim of her jeans.

"Touch me," she gasped. He smiled as he straddled her thighs. He slowly traced a finger from her lips, down the center of her chest, running a circle around her navel, to the top of her waist band. With a sly smile as she groaned in frustration, he popped the button on her jeans. Slowly he lowered her zipper. Moving off her he pulled her jeans and panties off at the same time.

Shannon was dying. His hard erection was straining against the zipper of her pants. But he wanted to make this perfect for her. He ran his hands up her thighs and followed with his lips.

"Shan," she called out as he buried his head between her thighs. He lapped at her woman hood. She writhed against his mouth. "I want you."

Shannon moved up her body with kisses. As his lips met hers, he plunged inside causing her to gasp.

"I love you," Shannon gasped out as her walls tightened around him.

"I love you Moore," she cried out as the climax washed across her body. He soon collapsed on her as he reached her release.

Karen started laughing causing Shannon to pull himself up on his elbows and looked at her with a raised brow.

"So glad I can make you laugh."

Karen reached up and wiped a tear from her eye. "I was just thinking of something Beth asked today."

"Great, you were thinking of another woman after I make incredible love to you."

"No baby," she replied stroking his cheek. "She asked me today when we were going to take the plunge. Did you tell anyone you were asking me?"

"No," he said kissing her softly. "I knew you would find out if I said anything to anyone."

"You are so smart," she said kissing him as he rolled off her and spooned behind her. He kept an arm wrapped around her waist. With nothing more to say, they drifted off to sleep.

The next day, Matt's…

Karen and Shannon pulled into Matt's with smiles on their faces. They were running a bit late because Karen woke up and saw her ring in the morning light. Shannon had a feeling they were going to be celebrating for a while.

"What do you guys have planned for today," she asked as they got out of the car. She waved at Beth as they walked towards the house.

"Egg Duel Part Three," he said with a wink. Jeff and Matt came out of the house carrying a box full of cartons of eggs. Karen just shook her head at them and waved to Mike as he followed them with a camera.

"You ready to get yolked," Matt called out.

"Sure," Shannon said with a laugh. "But I thought I was the referee?"

"Matt decided we all should get involved," Beth said walking up to the couple. "Karen, if you want to, you can make your debut on the Hardy Show and pelt lover boy with some eggs."

Karen looked at Shannon who pulled a big pout on her. "I don't think I can hurt my boy here." She giggled as Shannon kissed her I gratitude. "But if it's all for the good of the program, I guess I have to." She yelped as Shannon slapped her on the ass.

"Dude," Jeff said slinging an arm around Beth. "She is going to hurt you now."

Everyone laughed as Karen picked up an egg and mock threw it at Shannon not realizing Mike had already started filming. Beth screamed when she noticed something twinkling on Karen's left hand.

Jeff and Matt turned to the girls as Beth grabbed Karen's hand and crushed the egg in it.

"You bitch," Beth yelled eyeing the new piece of jewelry. "You have something you want to share."

Karen laughed as Shannon stood behind her and wrapped his hands around her waist. Jeff and Matt were both clueless as Mike filmed on.

"Moore," Karen said looking up at him. "Do you have anything you want to share with nosy here and Dumb and Dumber over there."

"Hey," all three yelled at their nicknames as Karen and Shannon continued laughing.

"Well Karen agreed to marry me," Shannon told them kissing her on the cheek. Beth squealed and hugged the happy couple as Jeff and Matt covered their ears.

"Jesus Beth," Matt said trying to shake the ringing from his ears. "Karen you sure you want to do that?"

"Funny Mattie," she replied as he scooped her into a hug and passed her to Jeff who gave her a smacking kiss.

"Does this mean our three-some have to end," Jeff asked as he pulled away with a wink.

"Unless your joining me and Shannon, yes."

"Damn," Jeff said thumping Shannon on the back.

"Dudes, that is great footage," Mike called from behind the camera.

Karen groaned as the boys and Beth laughed. "I guess that's my debut." She bowed to the camera. "My name is Karen Bane and I love me some Reject."
