Chapter 55

"True but we're not breaking up so get that thought out of your head. I do love that you've considered me as the father of your future kids though."Hunter said winking at me.

He was very sure of himself and I didn't want to poop on his parade so I let him have his moment.

Hunter and I talked more about our childhoods as he made the pancakes. When he was done we settled in the dining table to enjoy them together. I had mine with strawberries and melted chocolate while Hunter took his plain. Orange juice helped us wash them done better.

"Have you thought about what you'll be doing now since your job doesn't start until April? That's a month away."Hunter asked me.

"Not really but I do have my gigs to keep me busy. They'll sustain me until I start working. I can even travel back home to see my parents for a while."I replied.

"That sounds like a plan but you can't go to the village for that long. I was thinking that maybe you can take driving classes and apply for your passport."Hunter suggested.

"I don't have money to waste on both of those things you just said."I replied.

"I know that's why I'm offering to pay. Listen to me before you start fighting me on it."Hunter demanded when he saw me get ready to argue with him.

I nodded giving him the go ahead to continue.

"I'll pay for everything now since you have the time but no extra money then when you get paid you can refund me."Hunter explained.

"Will you actually let me pay you back?"I challenged.

"Yes, I am a man of my word."Hunter promised me.

It was a good suggestion as always and he was right. I had the time to learn how to drive but didn't have the funds. I could pay him back as soon as I got my first paycheck. I'd also always wanted to learn how to drive and and it was good to have a passport just incase I needed to travel outside the country.

"Okay it's a deal but if you don't let me pay you back we'll have an issue."I replied giving in making Hunter smile.

He leaned over the table and kissed me gently.

"You'll return the money to the last cent and I'll take it back."He mumbled our lips brushing against each other.

I pecked his lips then pushed him away so I could finish my pancakes.

"These are delicious, thank you bear."I smiled at him taking a huge bite.

"You're welcome baby."Hunter replied winking at me.

After we were done eating Hunter and I cuddled on the sofa to watch a movie but I drifted off ten minutes in. Hunter carried me to bed and tucked me in getting in with me. I intertwined our legs together lying on his chest to get more comfortable.

"Goodnight bear."I mumbled with a yawn.

"It's five am in the morning."Hunter replied with a chuckle.

"Good morning it is then."I whispered stifling another yawn.

"Sleep now doll."Hunter demanded kissing my forehead.

I kissed his chest and closed my eyes drifting off to sleep in my man's arms on his big soft bed.

"Hunter seriously we're already running behind on time. If you don't put that laptop down right now and go take a shower I'll throw it out the window."I threatened glaring at him.

I'd just finished taking my shower to find him still working on his laptop, like he had been for past three hours.

"You were in there, what was I to do?"He defended his eyes still glued to his laptop screen.

"As if that's ever stopped you before."I replied with an eye roll.

"I love it when you nag me, you sound just like a dotting wife already."Hunter teased.

That statement was like a slap in the face! Nagging? Wife? I wasn't his wife and I wasn't nagging either.

"Do what you want Hunter, I don't care."I muttered turning away from him.

I retrieved my bag from his closet so I could start getting ready. I'd received a solo invite so I would be going to the party with or without him. I was a big girl and I didn't need to depend on him. Wife?! Fuck. That would wouldn't stop ringing in my mind.

"Hey what was with the tone?"He asked me but I ignored him.

"Baby girl."He called out again but I didn't reply.

I retrieved the dress I was going to wear, my underwear and shoes tossing them on top of the bed. My utility bag was already on the night stand so I zipped up my bag and tossed it back in the closet. I turned around and ran into Hunter's hard chest. I hadn't heard him get up from his desk. He caught me before I fell but I quickly stepped away tightening my towel around me.

"You suddenly went quiet, did I say something wrong?"He inquired.

"If I'd known not talking to you would make you abandon your work, I would have done it an hour ago."I retorted refusing to look at him.

"I'm sorry I'm making us late baby girl but I seriously needed to get that work done."Hunter apologized.

"It's fine."I replied with a shrug picking up my lotion.

"No it's not because I've made you angry and you're using your sad disappointed tone on me."Hunter said approaching me.

He took the bottle of lotion from my hand and squirted some on his hand.

"What are you doing?"I asked when I noticed him rubbing his hands together.

"Apologizing for making my woman angry."He replied placing his huge hands over my bare shoulders.

"I can do that myself."I said biting my lip to stop myself from moaning.

Hunter knew very well what he was doing to me.

"I know."He rasped out biting my ear lobe.

He kissed my neck as he rubbed lotion all over my hands, his bare chest against my back. I really tried to hold it in but I found myself tilting my head wanting for more and moaning his name.

"I'm sorry doll, forgive me?"Hunter pleaded massaging more lotion to my neck.

As much as it felt good to be touched by him I refused to let it go.

"No because you called me a nagging wife."I responded with a pout.

Hunter pulled away making me mewl in protest before he turned me around to face him.

"You can be my nagging wife anytime baby girl but I know how much that title pisses you off so I'm sorry. I love it when you care about small things like being on time to Brian's birthday. It shows that you care for me and for him so I'm sorry I called you a nagging wife."Hunter apologized looking into my eyes.

He looked really regretful for hurting my feelings and after such a heartfelt apology how could I continue being mad at him.

"It's okay you're forgiven."I replied smiling at him.

Hunter smiled back at me and kissed my forehead and lips softly.

"Thank you baby girl. Pick me something to wear while I shower."He requested kissing me once more before skipping away to shower.

I stood there for a minute dazzled by the man that Hunter was before I raided his closet to find him an outfit.

Hunter was a true gentleman. He had admitted to the fact the he had hurt my feelings instead of brushing them aside and sincerely apologized.

So this is how it felt to date a real man instead of a boy? I quite liked it.

After choosing Hunters outfit, something casual this time because I refused to let him wear a suit, I got dressed myself.

"Oh no! Definitely no. Fuck no!"Hunter cussed from the door way.

I hadn't even heard him leave the bathroom. I looked up from my crouched position as I had been tying my shoes to look at him. He was glaring at me, more like at my outfit, his hands crossed against his chest.

"Yes definitely yes."I grinned twirling around to show him my outfit.

"Baby girl if it was an intimate gathering of friends I would gladly let you wear that but it's a fully packed club full of horny males so no you're not wearing that."He said trying to reason with me.

"I'm not wearing it for them but for you and if that dent in your towel is proof enough the dress works so yes to the dress."I cheered picking up my loop earrings and putting them on.

"I'm always hard around you but that's not the point, baby for the sake of my sanity please wear something else."Hunter begged.

"I don't have anything else to wear."I defended.

"You know you do, you always over pack. And if you don't then find something from my closet."He replied making me laugh.

"You have got nothing but suits in there, it's a surprise I was able to find jeans. Bear you're acting like my dad right now. Can you please be my boyfriend who lets me wear what I want. I feel sexy in this and even if I have another outfit this is what I want to wear."I pleaded with him.

I walked up to him and put my hands on his chest looking up at him.

"Don't use the pout to manipulate me. It will not work."Hunter groaned.

I wasn't even pouting. Okay maybe just a little.

I was wearing heels making me taller so I was able to reach his lips without standing on my tiptoes. I kissed him softly, not to convince him but because his lips looked very inviting. They were pink and full tasting like his mint toothpaste.

"You can wear the dress but if anyone even looks at you wrong, don't blame me for what I do to him."Hunter growled.

"I'll be with you all night."I assured him.

"You better be. Now let me get dressed."Hunter demanded softly spanking my ass.

I gasped stepping aside to let him get dressed.

"Seriously baby, jeans?"Hunter groaned looking at the outfit I'd chosen for him.

"Yes you'll look good. Now hurry, the party started an hour ago."I rushed out grabbing things to put in my purse.

Hunter didn't say anything else as he put on what I had picked out for him without a fight.

Twenty minutes later Hunter and I were riding the elevator down to the garage. I looked at our reflection on the elevator's interior and liked what I saw. Hunter was wearing blue wash jeans, a white tshirt, black jacket and black Vans. He looked casual and delicious unlike his usual uptight CEO self.

I on the other hand was wearing a short white bodycon dress that reached mid thigh. It had long loose sleeves and a v-neck outline that showed a lot of cleavage. It didn't allow me to wear a bra so if you looked closely enough you could see my nipples. That plus the thigh high slit on one side was the reason why Hunter didn't like the dress.
