Chapter 17
Benjamin gave Amber strict orders to have Chloe get dressed up in one of her best dresses. He wasn’t one for suits and ties, but the restaurant required a certain dress code. In fact, Benjamin hated suits. It reminded him of the day of his parent’s funeral. He’d just finished putting on his tie, when he heard a whistle from his best friend.
“Look at you getting all dressed up.” Jeff said, choking back a chuckle.
“Fuck you, man. What about when you suit up when you go down to the bar on Friday nights?”
Jeff rolled his eyes, “I don’t do that.”
Benjamin raised a brow and asked, “Or, how about when you pour half the bottle of cologne?”
“Fine, you win. I won’t give you any shit.”
Benjamin turned back to the mirror and took a deep breath. He had dreamed of proposing to Chloe for years. He ran his hand through his hair and blew out a harsh breath. Benjamin glanced down to the small box and picked it up. He brought the box to his chest and silently prayed.
He whispered, “Please, say yes.”
Jeff clapped Benjamin on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, man. She’s going to say yes. Just don’t forget to make me the best man at the wedding.”
Benjamin nodded, “Wish me luck.”
Benjamin drove a few blocks, arriving to Amber’s house. Everyone but Chloe knew what was going on. For all Chloe knew, Benjamin just wanted to take his girl out to dinner. Little did she know, he had much bigger plans. By the end of the night, she would be wearing a shiny rock and his cock filling her up. Benjamin groaned when he felt his member harden under his slacks. He stood nervously at the front door and rapped twice on the door. Amber opened the door and widened her eyes in shock. She’d only seen him in a suit once in her whole life. Amber pulled him inside and hugged him. She leaned in and whispered, “Don’t be so nervous. Chloe loves you.”
Benjamin gulped when he saw Chloe coming into the living room. Amber picked out the perfect dress. Amber released Benjamin and stepped to the side. Benjamin took a few long strides, meeting her in the middle.
Benjamin rested his hands on her hips, kissing her softly. “God, you look so beautiful.”
Amber cleared her throat, “She looks like an absolutely breathtaking. Go on, you two get out of here. And Chloe, don’t forget to call me with the details.”
Benjamin turned to Amber and glared, warning her to keep her mouth shut. She raised her hands in surrender and chuckled. Benjamin held out his arm for Chloe to take, which she gladly took. He led her to his truck and helped her inside and rushed to the driver side. Chloe bit her lip and asked, “Benjamin?”
“Don’t bite your lip, little one. It makes me want to have my dessert before we even have dinner.”
“Why did are we all dressed-up if we’re only going out to eat?”
Benjamin started the truck and cupped her face with one hand. “Because it’s a very special night for us.”
“Where are you taking me?”
“Shhh, it’s a surprise. I promise you’ll love it. Do you trust me?”
She bit her lip and nodded, “Yes, Master. I trust you with my life.”
“Shit, you’re teasing me.” Benjamin groaned, his cock swelling.
“Please, tell me where we’re going.”
“Not a fucking chance.”
Benjamin drove to Maria’s and parked the car. He helped her out and pulled to his chest, kissing her forehead. “Babydoll, tonight is all about you. Anything you want is your… including my cock.”
“Benjamin.” Chloe whimpered as he ground his hips into her.
Benjamin stepped inside the restaurant and stopped at the front desk. “I have a reservation for Grayson.”
“Of course, Mr. Grayson.” She said, grabbing a few menus.
“Ben, what is this really?”
“If you’ll follow me.” The woman said, leading them to a booth. Benjamin and Chloe took a seat.
“We’ll have the Cilantro Lime Shrimp served with a side of Risotto and a salad. Also, bring out your finest bottle of wine.”
“Of course, Mr. Grayson.”
Within a few seconds, they had brought out a bottle and filled two flutes halfway full. Benjamin brought Chloe’s hand to his mouth, pressing a soft kiss to her knuckles. “This is only the beginning, Chloe.”
“Benjamin, what is going on with you tonight?”
Benjamin picked up his glass and said, “Let’s start the night with a toast.”
Chloe picked up her glass and raised it to his, clinking it against his. “To us.”
“To new beginnings, baby.”
Benjamin gulped his drink down to calm his nerves. He cleared his throat and gulped. Was he supposed to wait after dinner to propose, or do it right now? He couldn’t even remember how Jeff and Amber told him to do it.
He set his glass down, turning to face her. “Chloe Davenport, I’ve watched you over the years blossom into a beautiful woman. I’ve loved you since the day I saw you in your pigtails. There’s no other place I’d like to be right now. I’ve made you mine in every way possible, except one.”
“Benjamin?” Chloe asked, but got cut off by him pressing his fingers to her lips.
“Hush, baby. Let me do this right.”
Benjamin then, stood up and got down on one knee. He reached into his pocket and held out the box. “Chloe, will you marry me? Be mine completely, baby.”
Chloe nodded, tears welling up in her eyes. “Yes, Benjamin. I’ll marry you… I’ll be your wife.”
Benjamin took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her finger. Everyone in the restaurant cheered and clapped for them. Benjamin took her by the wrist and pulled her to his chest. “I love you, Chloe Davenport. I love you so damn much.”
“I love you too, Master.”
Benjamin crashed his lips to her mouth as she wrapped her arms around his neck. When they pulled apart, Benjamin whispered in her ear. “Babygirl, I’m going to fuck you so hard tonight. I’m going to take you in every hole… push you to the extremes.”
“Benjamin, I’m not wearing any panties.”
“I know and I fucking love it. Now, let’s eat. You’re going to need it to keep up with me.”
