Chapter 6: Now
1879 Words
I spent the night at the hotel with Seraphim because we decided to have a staycation to make her forget about her issues with Jude. Although I seriously think that she’s overreacting.
Judeas has been her man since the start of college. They have been through a lot and now, I don’t know why she’s suddenly thinking that her husband is cheating on her just because he just got colder.
I shot a text to my husband to tell him that we’re about to check out right now.
Me:
Sera will drop me off. About to check out in a moment. Miss you x
Not even a minute passed when I got his reply.
Isaiah:
Okay. I’ll wait for you at home. Take care, baby.
I bit my lip to hide a smile that’s about to come out of my lips. Every day, I am just so grateful to have an understanding husband. He always understands it when I have to spend time with Seraphim. Maybe because he knows that Sera and I don’t want to repeat the mistake we made while dealing with the issues of Tamara.
I sighed and looked out the window. Everything would have been different now with Tammy with us.
Seraphim just got out of the bathroom. There’s a towel around her head as she walked towards the bed. She narrowed her eyes at me before raising a brow. “What?” she asked me.
I sighed and hugged myself. “I’m just wondering how it would feel if we have Tammy with us,” I replied. We have already talked and cried about it last night and maybe that’s the reason why I am still feeling emotional this morning.
Seraphim gave me a look. “The last time I checked, I was the one who has issues,” she told me, trying to stop me from thinking of what-could-have-beens because it’s already in the past.
But then, if I have the power to go back to the past, I would save her no matter what happens. I would have not asked her to understand him more.
I sighed and looked out the window. “I miss her, you know,” I said.
Seraphim let out a heavy breath before walking towards me to hug me. “Me, too,” she replied as she leaned her face on my shoulder. “I wish she’s here with us.”
Tears brimmed around my eyes as we both looked out the window in silence. We have been standing there for a few minutes before we decided to move on and check out because I have a café to manage.
Seraphim dropped me off at home and we saw Isaiah waiting by the gate of the house. He looked like he’s been waiting for long because he kept on checking his wristwatch.
“Oh, Dr. Gonzalez doesn’t have an operation today?” Seraphim asked me while she drove towards the gate.
I shrugged. “He said he’ll wait for me to come home. Maybe he doesn’t have any patients,” I replied.
Seraphim stopped when she finally reached the gate and rolled the window down. She looked out at Isaiah who was already walking towards the car and waved. “I dropped her off safely!” she beamed.
I removed my seatbelt before looking at my best friend. “Do you want to go inside? Eat some cake? I’m sure the carrot cake I baked is still there.”
Seraphim smiled and shook her head. “I need to go to the office today,” she replied. “But thank you for being with me tonight. I don’t know if I ruined your plans with your husband…” now she sounded apologetic.
I scoffed and pulled her for a hug. “Why are you telling me that now? You should have just told me that last night!” I joked and she hit my back lightly. I laughed and hugged her even tighter. “If you feel like you need another wine night, call me, okay?”
She sighed and nodded. “I know. I’ll do the same for you, Lily,” she told me before nodding at the window. “But for now, go to your husband. He might be looking for you.” She smiled.
I looked out the window and saw Isaiah smiling widely at me and Seraphim. “Did you two have a good night at the hotel?” he asked us as I opened the door. Isaiah immediately grabbed my bag and slung it around his shoulder.
“Yeah, we did have a good time, Ice!” Seraphim beamed. “Sorry for k********g Lily last night!”
Isaiah chuckled. “It’s okay,” he replied as he looked at me and snaked his arm around my waist. “Just say hi to Judeas for me,” he said.
Seraphim’s smile faltered slightly before nodding. “Sure,” she said. “I better get going. Bye!” she waved and slowly closed the window before driving away.
Isaiah and I watched her drive away.
“Is she okay?” he asked me.
I sighed and nodded. “Yeah,” I replied. I don’t know if she is, though. But I hope I helped her relieve her stress from her relationship. “She’s just normally like that. She always panics.”
Isaiah looked at me and smiled. “What about you? Are you okay?” he asked me before kissing me on the lips. “I missed you last night,” he mumbled against my lips.
I narrowed my eyes at him. “Did you?” I whispered and he nodded with eyes brimmed with desire. I chuckled. “Are you not going to work today?” I asked him.
He shook his head immediately. “I don’t have any in-patients so I can be with you in café…” he trailed. “Or maybe we can spend the day here at home.” He wiggled his brows and I chuckled.
“I need to check the inventory,” I replied and he frowned. “But…maybe I can do that this afternoon,” I added and he chuckled as he hastily pulled me inside the house on our way to our room.
He immediately locked the door and grabbed my face so he could kiss me senseless. His fingers are buried on my hair as his tongue swiped my lower lip, firing me up even more.
My hands went to the hem of his shirt and started pulling it so I could remove it from him but before I could even do it, he bit my lower lip, making me moan in protest.
“Baby, do you want this off?” he whispered as his mouth went to my neck. He sucked on the sensitive spot and smiled at me.
“Hmm…” my eyes are closed as I grunted with his skillful lips on my collar bone. “Please…” I moaned as I felt my knees wobbling.
He must have felt it because he supported my waist and pulled me closer to him. “I want you so bad,” he whispered as he licked my neck up to my jaw to capture my lips on his once more.
“Oh, gods, Isaiah!” I held onto his shirt tightly as he resumed kissing me like he hasn’t kissed me for long.
He carried me to our bed and laid me there carefully. He looked down at me and licked his lips. f*****g hot. I can’t believe I still have those times when I look at him question myself if I am even worthy to be his wife. I still feel like he’s an unreachable star.
He groaned and removed his shirt from the neck hole with one hand before throwing it on the floor. He slowly crouched down and hovered on top of me. His eyes were fixated on mine as he bit his lower lip. “You’re so beautiful,” he whispered before leaning down to kiss me on the lips.
I tried to reciprocate his hot kisses while his hands went inside my shirt and instantly found the lock of my brassier. Without wasting a second, he removed my shirt and unclasped my brassier in a blink of an eye.
His lips traveled to my jaw while his fingers are fondling on my peaks, kneading and massaging like he’s been longing to do that for a long time. My head was all over the place and all we could hear inside the bedroom was my voice, moaning, groaning, whimpering and grunting in pure pleasure.
Oh, s**t!
I already lost it when he finally latched on my n****e and sucked it hungrily. I fisted on his hair and pulled his face even closer until I was satisfied.
But nothing is close enough for me. I wanted to feel him. I was lost in euphoria and ecstasy. I already feel like I am floating in the air but my body wanted more.
Isaiah’s hand went to my thigh and traveled up until it reached my wet core. “Ah, f**k, you’re already so wet,” he whispered as he delved his fingers into my slick hole.
I let out another loud moan as he started thrusting his finger in and out of me while his tongue twirled around my pebbled tip.
“Ah, please, Isaiah!” I told him as I slowly felt knots forming in my gut. “Please…shit! I’m almost!”
Isaiah suckled on my n****e harder as he pumped his finger faster in and out of me. I didn’t know what was already happening to me because I already feel like I am on the edge of heaven and pleasure. I was just moaning and shouting his name until I convulsed under him.
His mouth went back to mine and started kissing me torridly while rubbing my clit. I don’t even remember when he finally removed my shorts and panties. He just makes me wonder most of the time.
I locked my arms around his neck as we kissed like the world is ending tomorrow only to be interrupted by a phone call. “Your phone,” I mumbled because Isaiah didn’t seem to mind it.
“Later,” he replied as the ring subsided.
“What if it’s the hospital?” And just as I asked, his phone went off again. I hummed against his mouth and lightly pushed him off me. “Go and answer…” I told him even though I don’t want to stop.
Isaiah groaned in frustration before reaching for his phone by the nightstand. I immediately went inside the blanket, covered my body and watched the topless Isaiah try to stop himself from shouting at the person who called him.
He looked at me and I just smiled for him to not feel guilty about it. “Okay,” he told the person from the other line. “I’ll be there in a moment.” And then he dropped the call. He immediately walked to me and kissed me on the lip. “I’m sorry. I need to go to the hospital. There’s a five-vehicle rear-end collision.” He sighed and looked at me apologetically.
I smiled. “Sure,” I said and reached for his face. “Don’t worry too much about me. I’ll go to the café later.”
He frowned, still looking guilty. “I’ll treat you to a fancy dinner tonight,” he uttered like a promise.
I chuckled and nodded. “I’ll be expecting it, Dr. Gonzalez,” I said before reaching for his lips. “Now, go and be the doctor I fell in love with.”
He sighed and looked at me intently before finally smiling. “I’ll see you later,” he said before kissing my forehead. “I love you, Mrs. Gonzalez.”
“I love you, too,” I whispered before letting him go to work.
