Allen POV

Maddie gets off my lap and to her feet before turning to me. I throw my legs off the side of the bed and Maddie steps in between them. She threads her fingers through my hair as I look up at her and grip her hips, pulling her body flush against mine.

"What're you thinkin' about, darlin'?" I ask Maddie before pressing kiss after kiss to her lower sternum, just below her breasts. Maddie straddles my lap and my eyes follow her until we're eye to eye once more. She leans in and presses a soft kiss to my lips.

"Just that I can't wait to finally start my life with you without anything holding us back. I know this is going to sound terrible, but once everything is settled and taken care of…I want to sell the house. I–I can't be reminded…I can't go back there. This is my home now, Allen. It has been since the first time you ever made love to me here," Maddie whispers.

"Then that's what we'll do. I can see it in your eyes; don't feel guilty, Maddie. They wouldn't want you to and I know that they'd understand. You gotta do what's best for you, baby and if selling their house is it, then that's what we're going to do. But you have no idea how happy it makes me to hear that you consider here home," I reply, running my fingers through Maddie's hair.

"That's because it is, Allen. You're my home. My lover. My rock. My best friend…my soul mate. You're my everything, Allen and you're the best thing to ever happen to me. You're my other half and I don't wanna go another day without you next to me," Maddie quietly rants.

To hear her say all of those things to me, it's just as amazing as when she first told me she loved me. I honestly never thought I could love her any more than I do now, but she just proved me wrong…again.

"You're not gonna go another day without me, baby. You wanna know why?" I ask her and tighten my hold on her rear as I get to my feet. Maddie silently nods her head as she wraps her arms around my neck.

"Because everything you just said…it's the same for me. You're my angel, Madison and there is not a day that'll go by where my love for you won't waiver; it'll only get stronger, baby. We will become stronger. Our bond will be unbreakable and the second you become Madison Jones will be the beginning of the rest of our lives," I whisper as I set Maddie on the counter and frame her face within my large hands.

Maddie meets my eyes as I rest my forehead against hers and press my lips with just the right amount of pressure against hers. "I love you," she whispers out and I provide her with a small smile that's filled with love.

"And I love you, darlin'. Always and forever. Now, come on. Let's get that shower in so I can feed my girl. I know you're hungry because you barely ate anything last night," I gently scold her and press a kiss to her forehead before turning on the shower.

It's a comfortable silence as Maddie and I wait for the water to warm up before stepping in. After closing the door behind us, we both step under the spray and I can't help but admire how beautiful she is. Maddie looks up at me and blinks the water droplets out of her eyes that had landed on her eyelashes.

I frame Maddie's face once more and descend my lips onto hers and ask for entrance by tracing my tongue against her lower lip. She quickly grants me access and it allows me to deepen the kiss, making it more urgent as I begin to kiss her harder…rougher…deeper, that Maddie is forced to hold onto me with the intensity I've made the kiss become.

My need for her grows stronger, that on it's own accord, my hand leaves Maddie's face and glides down her wet body, to the apex of her thighs. Maddie moans into the kiss when I dip my fingers into her wet folds and begin to stroke her.

"Allen," she breathes my name as she's forced to break the kiss.

"Talk to me, Maddie. Tell me what you want, darlin'," I rasp out as I begin to circle her clit with small gentle circle. It has Maddie whimpering and her hand shoots down to mine, pushing it further into her, causing her to cry out.

"I need more," she mewls as she claws at my forearm.

"Hmm…" I grumble out quietly as I continue to play with her, "do want Daddy inside of you. Do you wanna feel my cock stretch you out as I take you so fuckin' high, you won't know which way is down? Hmm, is that what you want, Mamma?" I groan out as my voice becomes husky with lust.

"God yes," Maddie whines out. "I want your cock so deep inside me. Destroy me. God, please destroy me," she whimpers and grabs my cock that it has me moaning, but it also has me turned on beyond belief because I never thought I'd hear Maddie talk so vulgar like that.

"Oh fuckin' hell, Maddie," I groan, thrusting into her tiny hand when I feel her begin to stroke me, providing just the right amount of pressure when she squeezes.

"Does Daddy like how Mamma is making him feel?" Maddie whispers seductively and I nod my head pathetically, until I snap out of the state her hand put me into. I remove her hand from me and as Maddie goes to protest, I gently slam her against the cold shower wall and it rips a gasp from her.

"Oh no you don't, darlin'," I growl out. "You wanted me to fuck you and destroy you, so that's what I'm gonna do, sweetheart," I snarl. I place Maddie's hands on my shoulders before leaning down to grasp her thighs and carefully, but efficiently slide her back up the wall.

"Hmm, much better," I rasp out when I trap her body against the wall with mine. "You don't know how ravishing you look right now, Madison. It's literally taking everything in me not to let my inner beast come out right now and fuck the living shit out of you because I know I won't be able to control myself and I don't wanna hurt you. I'd never forgive myself if I did. But I am going to. Fuck you, that is, darlin'," I promise quietly as I rest my forehead against Maddie's.

The quiet whimpers to leave past her lips has me grinning, but the kiss I press to Maddie's lips is nothing like the way I was just acting. It was soft, gentle, but filled with the passion I know she craves.

Without warning, I slip inside Maddie's wet and tight heat with a quick and forceful thrust. "Allen! Fuck!" She cries out and her voice echos off the walls, bouncing back to us. As I give her a few moments to adjust, Maddie's eyes meet mine.

"So goddamn beautiful. And you're mine," I say quietly and reach up to tuck some of the wet hair that got into Maddie's face. When I know she's ready, I pull out all the way, just to plunge right back into her slick walls. The moan that leaves Maddie has me doing it again, only this time I thrust back into her faster and harder. Her nails dig into my shoulder blades, but if I knew she couldn't take it…I wouldn't do it. But I know my girls limits and I'm gonna push them as far as I can.

I spread my legs some to get the leverage I need and begin to increase the speed and power of my thrusts. Maddie's jaw drops open and her eyes grow heavy with the lust and euphoric high I know she wants. I know she wants to forget everything. Even if it's only for a short period of time. So, I'm going to provide her with that distraction by giving her what she wants.

"Ohhh god, Daddyyyy. Feels so good. Don't stop!" Maddie moans and throws her head back against the wall. As I continue to keep up with the speed and force of my thrusts, I dip my head and begin to place wet kisses along Maddie's neck, letting my tongue caress her skin.

I break away from her neck, just enough to rasp out, "that's right, baby. I'm your Daddy and Daddy takes care of his girl who he loves so much," I say in Maddie's ear before I trace it's shell with the tip of my tongue.

I feel Maddie's grip travel into my hair on the back of my head and the force at which she pulls it, has me growling out my appreciation. The force she provides, has my head craning back slightly and I look into her eyes and see the want and desire to find her release shining through. "Harder…Allen. Fuck me, hard and fast," she demands me, quietly.

Without another word, I tilt my hips up and begin to pound into Maddie with quick and even strokes, making sure my dick hits her sweet spot every time I thrust into her. The sound of Maddie's loud cries and moans alongside our skin slapping together has my own impending orgasm creeping up on me.

"Come on, Maddie. Come on, baby. Come for me…come for Daddy," I ground out in grunts as my thrusts become rougher, but I continue to stroke that sweet spot deep inside Maddie. The one I know makes her legs turn to jelly when she comes hard.

"Ohh–ohhhh! Allennn, I'm gonna come. Oh fuck…oh shit! Please!" Maddie pleads, digging her nails into my back and with a few more thrusts, she cries out her release as her body shakes from the intensity. Her juices coat my legs, but the water quickly washes it away.

My release follows shortly after and my body stiffens as I come violently into Maddie, my seed coating deep into her walls. My frame shudders in the aftershock of my orgasm and it's taking all of my strength to keep my hold on Maddie strong.

I rest my forehead on her shoulder as we try to catch our breath and I can feel Maddie's fingers comb through my wet strands as she holds onto me tightly. I feel her lips press delicate kisses to my shoulder and neck as she whispers sweet nothings in my ear.

"Are you okay, baby? I can feel your heart beating through your chest," Maddie asks softly, moving her lips to my jaw before they find mine as I lift my head to look at her. "Are you alright?" She asks again and I place a kiss to her lips before nodding.

"Yeah, I'm good. That was just really intense," I chuckle.

I tighten my hold on Maddie so I can carefully pull out of her and a small whine leaves her mouth. As her legs let go of my waist, my hands glide up Maddie's sides as her feet find their place back on the floor. She looks up at me with a loving smile and frames my face, pressing a soft kiss to my lips.

"But you can't deny…the sex gets better and better each time," she croons. I grin down at her because I know she's right, but that also brings me to the next question I've been wanting to ask her.

"You are right about that, darlin'. But I do have to ask and please don't get upset with me when I do because it's been weighing on my mind for a while now," I begin and Maddie looks up at me in concern.

"What is it, baby?" She asks me, softly while resting her hands on my chest, letting her fingers play with the hairs there.

"I–I know you're going through a difficult time with everything that just happened so it seems almost inappropriate to ask, but with all the sex we've been having…all of it has been without protection and I release inside of you each time. With the look on your face, I know you know what I'm about to ask, but would it really be the worse thing in the world if you did?" I ask Maddie, timidly. Her mouth opens and closes like a fish and if the subject weren't so serious and life changing, I would have laughed at how adorable she looks.

"Allen…" she said solemnly.

"I hate it when you say my name like that," I interject softly…quietly and she looks back up at me indifferently after breaking all eye contact.

"Allen…" Maddie says my name more serious, "we only met 2 months ago. A month and a half of that we've been dating. We're both financially unstable and I haven't even moved out of my dead father's house yet and you wanna bring up kids?!" She exclaims and pushes me away from her, looking up at me like I've lost my goddamn mind. Maybe I have.

She storms past me and out of the shower, grabbing a towel along the way. I shut the water off, following closely behind and grab one of my own. "Maddie, babe! Come on…hear me out," I retort, wrapping the towel around my waist.

"What?! Allen. What?!" She screams, throwing the towel to the floor but refuses to turn in my direction as she gets changed. I can't help but stand there and watch her as she does, completely flabbergasted at where all of this is going. Idiot. You should have known she wouldn't take to having kids lightly this early into your relationship.

Maddie turns to me and the look in her eyes is one of impatience, and annoyance. Well fuck. "We both have income coming in and a lot of the stuff in your parents house that didn't have sentimental value, you can sell for extra cash. Besides, you were ecstatic when I told you that I saw you holding our child…"

"Oh no. Don't you dare turn this on me Allen Neal," she spits out and I flinch at the usage of my middle name included. That's when I know I've fucked up. "You know what. I'm gonna finish everything on my own today. I don't want you with me. I can't be around you right now. Find something to do. I don't care. Go pick up a shift at the shop. ANYTHING! But you're not spending the day with me," Maddie snaps, putting her wet hair up into a messy bun.

She detours back to the bathroom to brush her teeth, but soon after fled the bedroom quicker than I was able to comprehend and quickly makes her way downstairs. I follow behind her and watch as she buzzes through the kitchen. "Maddie, baby. Please. What about what you said to me not even an hour ago?" I counter and she stops dead in her tracks, then turns to look at me.

Maddie shakes her head at me, "that all stands true, but I still can't be around you right now. God knows you'll look at me a certain way and I'll end up pregnant. But hey, then you'll get what you want!" She smartly retorts with an eye roll and scoffs. "I'll be back later," she said and grabs her purse before slamming the front door behind her.

I wince at how loud the bang is and run my hand through my damp hair as I lean against the counter. "You really are a fucking moron, Jones. You shoulda known she wouldn't have taken it well," I scold myself, rubbing my hand across my face. I look to my right and see my cell phone sitting on the charger. I snatch it up and pull up mine and Maddie's text messages.

Allen: I'm sorry, darlin', just please be careful and come home to me safely. I love you, baby.

I send it and place the phone back onto the counter before trudging upstairs to get dressed. I honestly have nothing else to do since I did plan on being with Maddie today, so I guess I'll take her advice and go to the shop.

Less than an hour later I pull up to the shop and trudge inside. Luke is at the desk and he looks up at me with furrowed brows. "Hey man, is everything alright? Aren't you suppose to be with Maddie? Is she okay?" He asks back to back questions.

"Ha! Define alright. Yeah, she's okay and I am, but I fucked up and couldn't keep my big mouth shut so she's finishing the arrangements for her father on her own and here I am," I said with a sigh.

"What did you do, now? Or better yet, what did you say?" Luke asks.

Before I can answer, Karl comes bounding into the room. "I thought I saw your truck outside. What are you doing here? Where is Maddie and why are you in your work clothes?" He too, asking back to back questions.

I wanna snap on them for the multiple questions, but I know I can't because I'm the one who fucked up. "Well, with the amount of sex we have it's a miracle in itself that Maddie hasn't gotten pregnant yet because we never use protection. And I asked her if it would be the worst thing in the world if she actually did get pregnant and let's just say she didn't take to well to that," I explain and both of their jaws drop. Again, if the subject weren't so serious, I would have laughed at how comical their faces look right now.

"Yeah," I scoff out a laugh, "I'm a fucking idiot and she won't return any of my calls or texts, so not knowing where she is right now, is killing me."

Luke POV

I sit there and look at Al like he's lost his goddamn mind for even broaching that subject this early into their relationship. I know how serious they are and that they're in love, but Jesus, I didn't think even he would be stupid enough to bring up kids 2 months into their relationship.

"Dude, don't look at me like that. I know I fucked up. But I'm in love with her and I want to start a family with her. I'm 35 years old; if I'm gonna be having kids, it's gotta be soon," he said to me and I shake my head. But not at the subject at hand, but to clear my head and help my best friend in any way I can.

"I'm not…I'm trying to make sense of the whole situation so I can help you. I was about to start on the Mercedes in the garage. The engine light came on, so I was gonna look for the cause of it. Go start on that and I'll try and see if Maddie will talk to me," I tell Al and a look of relief shows up across his face.

"Thank you, man. If you're able to, I'll owe you big time. I just wanna know she's safe," he replies, worry coating his tone.

"I've got you, brother. Always," I tell him and he nods his head in thanks before turning to go into the garage. That leaves me to put my attention onto Karl, "did you need something Anderson or are you just here to bug me?" I ask him and he shoots me a sour look.

"Love you, too, dude. I said I saw Jones' truck and I got nosey, but now that I know how much of an idiot the goober is, I do feel a little better about myself," he replied and apparently Al wasn't out of earshot just yet.

"Screw you, Anderson! At least I've got myself a girl!" He exclaims and I snort at the exchange.

"Hate to say, but he's not wrong, bro," I say, looking up at Karl and he looks anything but amused. He grumbles his displeasure, making his way back into the garage. I shake my head at him in amusement and pull out my phone to text Maddie.

Luke: Hey, babygirl. I heard what happened between you and Al. He's a goddamn idiot for even bringing up the subject of kids, but I also know that he loves you more than anything and wants to start a family with you. Just let me know you're okay though, he's going crazy with worry not knowing where you are or how you're doing because you won't respond to him.

I send the text and with a sigh, get back to the paperwork I was focused on when Al showed up. Not even a minute later, Maddie replied back. Damn. She really must be pissed at Al if she is responding to me this quickly and not to him at all.

Maddie: Hey, Lukey. I'm okay and I'm at the funeral home, setting up a time when I can pick up my father's remains, then I'm gonna go to the house and grab my mom's ashes and whatever I can get into the truck. Unless anything else comes up, I'm heading home after that.

Well, it's a relief to know that she is okay.

Maddie: Please don't tell him where I am. Just let him know that I'm okay and that I love him, too.

Oh boy. Might as well go tell Al that his girl is okay. Walking into the garage, I find him buried deep into the hood of the Mercedes. I sidle up next to him and lean on the bumper of the car. "So do you want the good news or the bad news first?" I ask and he looks up at me with furrowed brows, wiping his hands off on the rag next to him.

"What do you mean bad news? Is she okay or not? Because if she's not, you better tell me where…" Al begins to rant and I tune him out until he's finished.

"Are you done?" I ask in exasperation.

"Luke, I swear to god," He threatens.

"She's fine, dude. She's okay and she told me what she was up to," I begin to tell him, but pause.

"Okay. And?" He asks, impatiently.

"That's the bad news part. She doesn't want me to tell you. She just wanted me to let you know that she's okay and that she loves you," I tell him and the troubled hurt look to cross his face makes me feel bad for him. I wish there was more I could do for him, but I can't.

"Are you serious?" Al asks, sounding defeated and I regrettably nod my head.

"I'm sorry, brother. I wish there was more I could do for you, but I don't wanna break her trust," I tell him and he nods his head.

"No, I get it. It just sucks. I hate myself right now. I just wish I didn't say anything earlier about it. This is our first big fight…argument? I don't even know," he said and I place a hand on his shoulder.

"Well, whatever you choose to do today, you have my support. If you wanna head home when you're done with this…" I say, patting the car bumper, "…or if you want to stay here and continue working, I'm okay with either," I tell him, getting to my feet.

"Thanks man. I appreciate it. Really, I do," Al replies.

"Anytime, brother."
