Chapter 26: Be My Valentine

“So Alexis, huh?” Dylan asks.
“Yeah, she's incredible. I love her.” Damn, it felt so good saying it out loud!
“So you're really giving up porn?” he asks.
“Yep.”
Dylan chuckles, “Wow, I never thought I'd see the day.”
“She just effortlessly does something to me. I have never felt anything like this.”
“She is your One. Are you going to marry her?” he asks.
“Yeah, yeah I am.”
“Good. Just don't fuck it up. Trust me, it wrecks you,” he says.
“I don't plan on it. She makes me a better man and I won't lose that or her. Are you seeing anyone?”
He sighs, “No, I messed up.”
“Then redeem yourself.”
“You are right. I think it is time for me to get serious and let the right one in,” he replies. “So, I was thinking it would be cool if the cruise went to Ibiza if it isn't already.”
“It isn’t, but that could be a fun time. I will send out a group text to see if the others want to.” I got out my phone and sent the text. Within minutes everyone was eager to add it as a stop on the tour. I swear that my friend group is a bunch of escaped mental patients. “Dude, we are going to have to watch Lynn.”
“Why?” he asks.
“Alexis let her see the group message I sent and our sister asked Luke to share a cabin with her. When I told her no, she said that there would be plenty of guys wanting to share.”
“Eww, that is our sister.”
“I know. I think Alexis meant well because she's open like I am, but we will have to watch her and Lynn when they are together. We can't leave them unsupervised.”
“Like now,” he replied.
“Shit!” We stand up and head inside. We find the girls upstairs in Lynn’s room. Alexis was asleep. I lay down beside her.
Lynn smiles as she talks softly so as not to wake Alexis, “I love her. She's really nice and great for you. I feel like her sister already. It's insane because we only just met, but that's how I feel.”
“Thanks. Yeah, I started falling for her during our first conversation. I love her, Sis.”
“I hope you don't mess it up,” she replies. I swear my siblings think that I am a fuckup. I am not, I just had terrible taste in girls until Alexis found me.
“I won't.”
“So you're just done with porn?” I nodded. “That's good and it is even better that she accepts you with a past like that,” Lynn says.
“Believe me, I know,” I said as I stood up. I scooped Alexis up. “Goodnight, Sis.”
“Goodnight and tell my new sister that too, please.” I chuckled as I carried Alexis to my old room. Alexis fits in with my crazy friends and my family. They are my world, not porn, and now Alexis is a part of that world too. I just need to figure out how to make it official. It is almost Valentine's Day and for once, I can't wait!
