Chapter 8
"Mmm. That is yummy Julia." Dexter emphasised hilariously "taking one for the team" by eating the chocolate ice-cream cone she and him had been sharing. She was on my knee, babbling with mess all over her face while Dex had his arm around me.
"I'm sorry this isn't more special." I murmured, I had honestly tried to get a family meal organised but, with work, Julia and Dex asking me why Darcy wanted to know how much per head at Rouge (which, I managed to dodge spectacularly by subtly flashing my bra. Sex works!) I haven't had the time.
"Are you kidding?" "I haven't had ice-cream for dinner since I was five. Being here- with you- and her, that's all I could ever have asked for."
"Mmm. Happy Birthday Honey." I said through my kiss, stroking his cheek as he kissed my eyelids causing me to sigh happily.
"Ha. I love you." He chuckled "And oh! You!" He said as Julia crawled into his lap and he held us close. Julia laughed heartily and to the onlookers in Madison Park we were the perfect little family.
"Thank you for today." Dex says, as he snuggles into me when we are in bed.
"Anytime, Thaler." Beaming, I feel him kiss me, turn me so that I gasp and end up flat on my back. He catches my lips and leaves a trail of kisses right down to my core.
"Dex-"
It's his birthday yet he's the one making me feel, making me feel oh I can't articulate!
"I love you." He murmurs in my ear.
"I love you." I respond pushing myself up to kiss him eagerly, he kisses me back pulling me gently against him.
He stops for a moment to get protection but, he's soon back to me in wonderful time.
It's magic.
Being with him is magic.
