the man walked in like he owned the place. His arrogance spilling from his pores. he glanced over at her mother and sister and herself with disdain. he clearly didn't like their presence. Connor groaned rolling his eyes to the back of his head. " I see you hired yourself a few nurses to care for you." his voice was dripping with sarcasm.
Connor looked at her then back up at the man. her mother stiffened as she turned to look at him. " dad what are you doing here?" the man stopped in his tracks as he saw Alexis' mom turn and look at him. Shock written all over him as he stared into her eyes.
" Emily?" the man looked at her and then at Connor. Alexis couldn't help looking between the two of them. Connor was not happy that he was there. Alexis could hear the anger in his fathers voice as he spoke. " what the hell is she doing here Connor?"
her mother's eyes went wide as she took in a deep breath. " mom?" Alexis was beside her ready to protect her. She didn't care if it was Connors dad or not. No one was going to treat her mom bad. Not even the man responsible for Connor.
" Robert. I'm glad you can come see your son before he was released from the hospital. " her eyes hiding something in them. pain? Alexis wasn't sure exactly what it was. She could see the discomfort in her mom as she spoke.
the man named Robert looked at her mother then looked away to Connor. something was definitely off. " if you will all excuse me I need to talk with my son. " the man did not take his eyes off of Connor. Alexis stood up looking first to her mother and sister then between Connor and Robert. She was unsure of what to do.
Connor looked at Alexis and nodded. " dad you have a few minutes. we are about to head home." Alexis and her family walked outside the door to the hallway. through the doors the man was yelling at his son.
"dad stay out of it. she is my girlfriend and I'm going home with them!"
" no I refuse to stand by and watch you throw your life away for some trailer trash!"
" no I think you are not hearing my words dad, I have no life without her. she is my future. I love her."
" this is not happening! what about law school?"
" I never applied. it's not what I want. you need to leave dad. I think you've insulted enough people in the short time you've been here."
the door flew open and Robert came out of the room. he took one look at the three women sitting on the chairs in the hallway. " I suppose you heard all that." Alexis looked up and shook her head acknowledging him. " little girl if you cared about that boy of mine you would leave him and let him have a future." Alexis looked past the man watching Connor try to wheel himself through the door.
" sir," she stood up squaring off with Robert. " with all due respect, " she felt her mother hold her hand. " kiss my..."
" Alexis!" Her mother nudged her stopping her mid sentence. she looked down giving her mother a small squeeze. clearing her throat she looked back into Roberts eyes.
" sir unlike you I only have Connors best interests at heart. And unlike you I actually care about his heart." she took a deep breath in feeling every bit of frustration running through her body." and unlike you I actually love that man sitting in there and know what a great future he has in whatever he chooses. it's too bad you can't see him for him. I hope some day you wake up." Alexis pushed past him and went to Connor in his chair. " Come on. let's get you home."
they all walked past Robert not bothering to even look back. Alexis was proud of herself for standing up to him but at the same time her heart ached for Connor. They drove home in silence none of them wanting to talk about what happened. her mother stopped by Connors place to get him in his house on the property. once the women got him on the porch settled into his wheel chair Alexis told her mom she would get him taken care of. they both watched as her mom and sister drove the rest of the way to the main house. A few minutes of awkward silence Connor spoke out. " you told my dad you loved me?"
" so did you." she smiled shyly at the man sitting next to her with deep ocean eyes. she walked behind him and started pushing him towards the door. " Come on lover boy let's get you inside and resting. " she pushed him towards his bedroom helping him on the bed.
" come lay down with me." Alexis looked at him and moved to the other side of the bed. she climbed next to him laying her head on his chest. " you aren't ruining my future. "
" your father is something special. " she groaned out loud. " I shouldn't have said that I'm sorry." he cupped her face with his hand and tilted her chin up to him. He was breath taking even bed ridden.
" I'm not sure my father knows what love is. he has always been incapable of it. today just showed me that I need to be home with you. " she sighed as she leaned closer to his mouth. she leaned up kissing him. " you know it's just my leg that can't hold my weight. so I get to do a lot to this beautiful body of yours that doesn't involve my leg. " he kissed down her jaw line to her neck.
Alexis moaned out as she felt the electricity from his kiss. " you need rest Connor not ..." she gasped as his hand lifted her skirt roaming towards her core. she felt the heat rising. "Connor" she whispered into his mouth.
she felt his fingers on her underwear pushing under the seam. she shuddered as he plunged two fingers into her core. she arched her back as her hips moved with his motion. " mmm you're so wet. I need to feel you all around me." he took his fingers in and out as she fisted his t-shirt in her hands.
Alexis cried out as her stomach tightened and her orgasm spilled over throwing her head back she let it take her body over. she watched as he slipped his fingers from her and licked them clean. Closing her eyes as he pulled her up on top of him. " make love to me lexi. " he pushed up sliding his pants and boxers down freeing his member above her core. he pushed aside her panties placing her right above him looking into his eyes as she nodded her head to give him the confirmation he needed. she slid down on top of him taking him in her fully. she felt him filling her completely and never feeling so full in her life. Alexis began to move up and down slowly at first then faster and faster as her need for him grew. his head went back as he grew harder inside of her. she felt herself squeeze down on his shaft and then screamed out his name as she exploded so hard all over him causing him to release inside of her. they rode the waves of pleasure over and over again until they were both completely spent and void of all energy. she fell to his chest with him still inside of her. " you are so amazing" he whispered into her ear.
she rolled to his side sliding him out of her. " you need something to eat. I'm going to go heat some food up for you." she helped him pull his pants back up as she slipped into the kitchen heating him up some dinner. " hopefully you like a good casserole because you have enough here for a month worth of dinner. now that you are the town hero everyone wants to feed you." she walked back into the room to bring his dinner. he was asleep lightly snoring as she talked. she stopped to watch him as she set the food down beside his bed. Alexis couldn't help but wonder what would happen when she left? would he wait for her to fulfill her dreams or would he expect her to give it all up and sacrifice what she wanted all her life? she knew she loved him and for the first time in her life she felt so full inside. It was all because of him. This stranger that blew into town and right into her life. she couldn't imagine what life would be like with him not in it. what was she supposed to do now?
