Chapter 10

Rune

Rolling out of bed, I stretch my back out and head toward the bathroom. It’s been almost six months since Christmas, and everything has been perfect. Cali and I have been busy house hunting and planning her dream wedding. The only thing left to decide on is a date, but every time we have that discussion, it ends in an argument, so I’ve been avoiding that conversation altogether. She wants to get married right away, but I want to wait another year to see how we handle living together. I know she’s already living with me, but it’s different in a giant house that’s always full of people. What happens when she asks to bring home a dog or cat? Hell, what if she wants to bring home a fucking bearded dragon? These are all conversations we haven’t had before, because Karrion would never allow an animal in the house.

“What are you getting into today, Sweet Pea?” I ask as she pops her head out of the shower to smile at me.

“The realtor called earlier, a house just went on the market and she thinks it’s perfect for us.” She says. “Do you want to hop in here with me?”

“If I ever say no to that question, bury me.” Pulling my boxers off, I step into the shower behind her and wrap my arms around her waist. “What’s so perfect about this one?”

“Well, Mr. Grabby,” she smirks up at me, “it’s got five bedrooms and three baths,” she starts as I snake my hand lower and brush against her clit. “A dining room that’s separate from the kitchen.”

“Sounds good so far.” I drag my nose along her neck, inhaling the scent of her body wash, vanilla and mint, my two favorite smells. “How many acres?”

“Seventeen.” She says, resting her head against my chest while I continue to circle her clit. She squeezes my arm when I increase the pressure. “And there’s a pond.”

“When can she show it?” I ask, feeling her legs start to quiver. I only meant to tease her a little, but I can’t stop myself when her gorgeous pale blue eyes meet mine. Grabbing my cock, I slide it through her arousal and slam into her. She cries out as I thrust into her at a fast pace, her tits bounce with the motion and I grab one, rolling the nipple between my thumb and pointer finger. “When can she show it, Cali?” I growl, pushing her torso forward so she’s bent over in front of me. I grip both of her arms, using them as leverage to pull her back against me.

“An hour,” she pants, breathless. “I’m so close, please don’t stop.”

“We better hurry this along, then.” I release one of her arms and she flops forward, placing her hand on the wall to steady herself. “Cum for me.” I demand, rubbing her clit the way she likes it.

“Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck.” She chants as her juices drip from around my cock. Her pussy squeezing around me is enough to send me over the edge. A few thrusts later, I fill her with my cum, a smile plastered across my face when she turns around. Pulling the shower head from its bracket, I quickly help her wash up before cleaning myself and turning the water off.

Once we’re dressed, we each grab a bagel from the kitchen and go meet the realtor. As soon as we pull into the driveway, I know this is the house for us. It has the wrap around porch that Cali wants, the driveway is big enough to have company over and not have to worry about blocking anyone in, and it has the perfect amount of trees around the property. We climb out of the car, meeting the realtor on the bottom step.

“Hi guys, thanks for coming on such short notice.” She smiles and shakes both of our hands before leading us inside, showing us around the inside of the house. Cali’s face lights up as soon as we step inside. We follow her into the large kitchen where there’s a small island, perfect for the two of us to have breakfast together. Following her back through the entryway, she shows us the living room, office and first bathroom before she opens the door that leads to the stairs. “The last owners had this door installed to keep the little one’s downstairs.” She informs us. “If you want to remove it, it’s a pretty quick fix.”

“It doesn’t bother me.” Cali says as we climb the stairs. There are two bedrooms on each side of the hallway to our right with a bathroom at the end. We turn to the left where the master bedroom and second office are. “This view is gorgeous.”

I step behind her, resting my chin on the top of her head, “It sure is, Sweet Pea.”

The realtor leads us back down the stairs and outside. We stop on the front steps and admire the house again.

“It’s perfect, baby, I think this is the one.” Cali claps her hands together and a smile stretches across her face.

“I think so, too.” Wrapping my arm around her shoulder and pulling her close to me, I kiss her temple.

“I’m glad to hear it.” The realtor chimes in. “Take the night and sleep on it, let me know in the morning if you would like to put in an offer, nobody else is showing this house until the beginning of the week.”

“Thank you, we’ll be in touch in the morning.” I tell her, shaking her hand. I lead Cali to the car, opening her door and closing it behind her after she slides in. On the ride home, we talk about the house, and all the design plans she has in mind.

When we get home, she puts her hand on my thigh, stopping me from getting out. “We need to set a date, Rune. Everything else is falling into place, that’s the last thing we need to do.”

“I still think we should wait a year,” I sigh, rubbing my hand down my face. “Let’s see how this goes. Buying a house together is a huge step, Sweet Pea.”

“I don’t understand why we can’t just get married already, we’ve been together forever already. What could a piece of paper change?” She flings her door open and stands, bending slightly, “Maybe we’re just not meant to get married, Rune.” She spits, slamming the door and walking inside. I relax my head against the head rest and take a few deep breaths, trying to calm my nerves. I don’t know where these temper tantrums have been coming from, but it’s like a switch flips every time we have this conversation. A few moments later, the front door flings open and Cali stomps back down the stairs, climbing behind the wheel of her car and speeding out of the driveway.

“I’m getting too old for this shit.” I mumble under my breath as I go inside, heading straight for my room.
