Goof
When SIlvy said I had broken down her walls and wanted to give us being in a relationship a real try I was thrilled. No, I’m lying. I’m ecstatic. I’m ready to jump up and down shouting that Silvy was mine. I didn’t do any of that. Instead, I gave Silvy one or two or five of the sweet kisses she loves so much. I don’t care how I kiss her. I just want to kiss her. It is one of my favorite things to do to her. Definitely in the top five. And of all the places I like to kiss Silvy, her lips are in the top two. What was just sweet kisses turned into a slow drawn-out make-out session. I haven’t made out since I was in my early teens. We kissed and groped each other. We talked and Silvy giggled then we would make out again.
Silvy told me during one of our talks Silvy told me that I was only allowed to kiss her from now on. The look on her face when I told her she is the one woman I have kissed in years besides the kisses on the cheek I give the ol’e ladies. She did not believe me at all. Her eyes looked like they were going to pop out of her head. “ Goof, don’t lie to me. I have seen you with at least a hundred skanks over the years. And a few one-nighters.” she said. “ Babe, have you ever known me to lie to you?” I asked. Silvy shakes her head no. “ So you know I am not lying now. You have seen more women than I want to admit to. Not my finest moment in life. And we have a son I do my very best to make sure he never pulls some shit like I did.” I ramble.
“ The point is did you ever see me kiss any of them?” I asked. I needed Silvy to see the answer for herself. “ I’m sure I've seen you kiss them,” Silvy says but she doesn’t look convinced. I decided to help her out. “ I have kissed their cheeks, neck, and tits on an occasion. But my lips never touch theirs or their pussy. I made myself a vow to myself that I wasn’t going to kiss on the lips or eat a pussy unless the woman was special to me.” I told her. Silvy places her hands on my chest “ Well your lips have been on mine many, many times. Same for my pussy. If I believe your words. Which I do, I’m special to you.” Silvy said as she moved her hands up my chest to wrap around my neck as I hovered over her.
I smiled and kissed her quickly “ Babe, you are more than special. You are everything.” I said. That led to another round of making out. We went back and forth the rest of the night until sleep finally claimed us. I slept in the best place in the world. Wrapped around Silvy. My younger self was a fucking idiot to think having random pussy every night and drinking until I passed out was the life. This is the life, sleeping next to the woman you love. My hand was on her belly feeling our baby move around. I didn’t get it when I saw my brothers with their hands on their ol’e ladies' big bellies all the time. Now I do. I want my hands on her belly all the time. Hold it waiting for the next movement or just protecting it.
Next Afternoon
I had to stop by the club after working the morning at the dispensary. I had to drop off the payroll for Brick to do whatever he does with it. Then I planned on grabbing some lunch and going to the hospital to have lunch with Silvy. Imagine my surprise when I walk in and see Silvy sitting at the table in the back with Ace on one side of her and Gretchen on the other. Silvy was supposed to be at work. I had tunnel vision on Silvy. Nothing else mattered but her as I raced over to her. I dropped to my knees when I got beside her “ Silvy, babe. What happened? What are you doing here? Are you all right?” I asked looking her over to make sure there were no visible injuries.
Ace laughs at my side “ Give her a chance to answer you.” Silvy placed a hand on my hand that was on the chair. “ I am fine, Micheal. Turns out I’m supposed to be on half shifts.” Silvy said in a voice that calmed me instantly. She explained to me that her supervisor came to her today with her maternity paperwork and told her she should have been on shorter shifts two weeks ago but it slipped her attention. Silvy is also down to five days a week instead of six. And her maternity leave starts a week before her due date. That means she is off in three weeks. “ So since I got off early I thought I would surprise you here and see if you would like to go for lunch,” Silvy said.
I kiss her cheek and said “ I would love to have lunch with you. I just have to drop these papers off with Brick. You think about what you may want to eat. I’ll be right back.” I stood up as Silvy giggled “ I know exactly what I want to eat. I have been thinking about it since Ace told me about this place.” “ Oh yea. And what might that be?” I asked. With Ace, you can never be too careful. The last time he told me about a place it was a taco truck that made us all sick. I should have known better when I saw the rusted-out truck on blocks. Then there was the Irish Mexican fusion place. The food wasn’t bad there are just some things that shouldn’t be mixed. Like corn beef hash and stuffed jalapeno poppers. Gretchen loved it but was six months pregnant at the time.
“ I want barbeque and jalapeno, cheddar cornbread, and coleslaw,” she said. I can get on board for that. “ You got it, babe. I’ll be right back.” I said and walk down the hall to Brick’s door. I lift my hand to knock. Yes, I was going to knock and loudly. I made the mistake once. Just one of only half-ass knocking and opening the door before I was given the go-ahead. Never again. Ever. I walked into a live porn show featuring Brick, Gretchen and Speed. Now I pound on the door and wait to be called in. There is not a man in this club who hasn’t learned his lesson about walking into offices before being called in. Every couple has been walked in on at some point with Silvy and me being the exception. And I want to keep it that way. But back to what I was saying.
Gretchen stops me from knocking. “ Something wrong? Do I need to come back?” I ask thinking Brick may not be alone. “ Nothing is wrong I just needed to talk to you for a minute. Silvy said she isn’t working Sunday afternoon. We need you to bring her to our place. We are having a surprise baby shower for her.” Gretchen said. “ Thanks for doing that for Silvy. She is going to love it. What can I do to help?” I asked. Knowing the ol’e ladies there won’t be much for me to do. When these girls want something done they are quick and efficient. “ Yes, actually there is. Get in touch with Tony and Gena and invite them. Xavier is welcome too.” Gretchen said.
“ You got it. I will have Silvy there. Do you want me to bring anything?” I asked. I don’t care if it is a truckload of ice or juice boxes I want to help out. “ I can’t think of anything right now. If something comes up be sure one of us will give you a shout,” she said. Good enough for me. I was about to knock again when the door flew open. “ You trying to make a move on our wife?” Brick asked with his arms crossed against his chest. “ Hell, no man. One, I have an ol’e lady of my own. Or will very soon. And two, I am man enough to say I never want to go against Speed. Three, Gretchen isn’t my type. I have a thing for nurses. No offense Gretchen.” I said.
“ None taken. Now give the papers to Brick because I believe a certain very pregnant nurse is waiting for a barbecue lunch.” Gretchen laughed. “ Shit. Here Brick.” I said slapping the papers against his chest. I took off not paying attention if he got the papers or not. Gretchen yelled “ Don’t forget what I told you.” I raised my hand to let her know I heard her and headed to Silvy. I need to feed my woman.
