Hallie’s P.O.V
“Hallie would you please hurry up we have been here for ages.” Penny groaned as I walked around the clothing shop we were in for the third time
“I know, I am sorry. I need the perfect dress for Deacon’s and I’s one year anniversary. I have the sexy things, need the other things now.” I said laughing
“Eww I do not need to talk about the sexy clothing you are wearing for my brother again, thank you very much.” She said screwing her face up
It was true I dragged her into the lingerie shop to get some new things for Deacon’s and I’s weekend away. I can’t believe it has been a year since we finally told each other I love you. It had been a crazy, amazing year. I am not gonna say it has been easy cause it has not, it took a couple of months for us both to adjust to being in an actual relationship, we nearly broke up a month into but we realised we couldn’t be apart, it has made us stronger in my opinion. I think we were both scared of how much in love we had fallen but that was then…this is now and this weekend we are celebrating our one year anniversary at the place I took him for his birthday last year, the place where I think the two of us started to feel more, the perfect place to celebrate.
“You are one to talk. I know what you and Cillian get up to in the bedroom.” I smirked winking at her
Penny blushed, flipping me off and walking away. I couldn’t help but chuckle to myself. I think sometimes Deacon and I being together is a little strange for her which is understandable.
I finally found the dress that I liked, the last thing I need for our weekend away. Probably a good thing, I have no hands left to carrying things. I may have went a little overboard in the lingerie shop…opps, not like Deacon will be complaining. Yes even after a year of an actual relationship the passion and the heat is still there between us…actually the passion and the heat has risen since then. The two of us still addicted to each other in the way we were when all this began.
“Finally!” Penny said throwing her hands in the air when I finally arrived outside where she was waiting for me getting very inpatient with me. I giggled, making her look at me with an unimpressed look on her face
I shrugged it off, linking my arms through her, both going to grab lunch before heading home since I was leaving tomorrow and still had to pack. I always leave things to the last moment.
“I can’t believe you and Deacon have been together for an entire year, well more of that but officially a year. I never think he had it in him.” She laughed
“What can I say I am awesome.” I smirked
“Yes…yes you are.” She said smirking back at me “It is not about time he officially makes you my sister-in-law?” she added
“A little soon for that do you not think?” I said shaking my head
She was always saying that or telling us we have to hurry up and make her an Auntie. She is lucky that Deacon and I don’t take her seriously, know she is only messing with us…well sort of, and think she would love if any of that happened but as I said it is too soon. Until me Deacon never exactly has an actual relationship never mind expected any more than that from him this soon.
“Hey you never know.” She winked
*************
Penny and I arrived back at Deacon’s and I’s place, tired from our day of shopping, think we both went overboard
“Is there anything left in the shops?” Deacon asked c*****g his brow at us
I headed over to him, dumping my bags on the floor, leaning in and kissed him before reaching into his ear
“Trust me baby if you knew what I had in these bags you would have no complaints.” I purred in his ear, Deacon growling at my words
Penny soon cleared her throat, making us stop before it went any further. Deacon grabbed me, pulling me into his lap, wrapping his arm around me.
“I missed you baby.” He smiled, placing a soft kiss on my lips
I melted into his kiss, smiling. Even after all this time his kiss still drove me crazy. Penny walked away, heading into the kitchen, clearly not wanting to see us kissing. Once we pulled apart from the kiss
“I missed you too my love. How was work?” I asked wrapping my arms around his neck
“Hectic. I am ready for our weekend.” He said stroking my back
“You and me both baby. Can’t wait to get away, only the two of us. Can you believe it has been year around?” I said
He took my face in his hand, stroking my cheek and smiled at me
“I know. It has been the best year of my life beautiful, can’t wait to share many more with you.” He said, resting his forehead against mine
“It has been pretty amazing uh? I am sure the years to come will be as just amazing.” I said running my fingers through his hair
“You two are too sweet it is sickening really.” We hear Penny giggle from behind us
Deacon flipped her off, reaching in to kiss me once again before we pulled apart. I snuggled into his chest, my arm around his waist, his securely around my body. I felt his heart start beating faster in his chest, the same reaction he has every time I am close to him.
“I love you baby girl.” He whispered, kissing the top of my head
I lifted my head from his chest, looking up at him, running my hand over his face
“I love you too my love.” I whispered back before snuggling back into him
“Did you two ladies have a good day spending too much money?” he chuckled
“Much fun big bro and worth every penny.” Penny laughed, Deacon shaking his head at both of us
Penny and I both flipped him off, Deacon pouting at us both. You would think he would be used to the two of us picking on him, he can never win against us, even with Cillian there Penny and I still win.
“Well I am gonna get going, get home to my own man, let you two enjoy your weekend. Have fun now…not too much fun. Love you both.” She said coming over, giving us both a quick hug before heading out
“We should probably get organised and get an early night since we leave early.” I said hesitantly pulling myself off his lap
Deacon was having none of it, he pulled me back onto his lap
“Or we could have a quickie then get organised.” He smirked
“Mmm baby I am sure I can do that.” I said smirking back at him
What can I say we struggle to keep our hands off each other? I swear I still fall in love with him more everyday…every second I spend with him. He was my forever, I had no doubt in my mind about that.
