Building you up

Chapter 14

Chapter 14Tia’s pov

I got Deacon to bed, and Skylar and I cuddled up on the couch. I wanted to stay like this forever. Being in his arms made me feel safe and secure.

“Skylar stay the night.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes.”

I wanted to sleep in his arms. I was ready to take it to the next step. I knew that he never would hurt me. I know he loves me so why not take the next step.

“I love you Tia. I just don’t want to push you into anything you don’t feel comfortable with.”

“I am ready for this. Skylar you’re an amazing man. I love you so much. You’re the best thing that has happened to Deacon and me. If things start happening to fast, I will let you know.”

“Okay then I would love to stay the night. I keep extra clothes in my truck, so I will go get that and be right back.”

When I knew he was outside I did a little happy dance. My life was perfect right now. I was living on cloud nine. I was in love. I had security with in my relationship for the first time in my life. It felt really good.

Skylar came back in and we headed to my room. I put Deacon in the nursery tonight and turned on the video monitor, so I could still see him. I was nervous about him sleeping in his own room, but I need to believe he will be okay.

Skylar and I talked about our future, and what we wanted. It was nice. It seems like we both want a lot of the same things. He held me so tight. I had no doubts in my mind about him.

Tomorrow I couldn’t wait to talk to Layla about him. It was going to be nice having a girl’s day. I was beyond happy. Nothing could ruin this. Life was finally going my way. I was the one that could finally brag to her very happily taken best friend about how happy and in love I am with this super sexy and sweet guy. I was so excited. The fact that she approved of Skylar meant a lot to me. I just couldn’t stop smiling I was so happy. Layla said she could tell I was happy, and that Skylar is totally in love with me.

I looked over at this sexy man that is laying in my bed with me in his arms and felt content. I know my sister would have approved of him. She would be so happy for me right now. I felt a tear slip out of my eye from missing my sister so much. Deacon was the only family I had left now.

“Are you okay Tia?” Skylar asked.

“Yes, sorry was just thinking about my sister.”

“Beautiful you never have to apologize to me. I just wanted to make sure you weren’t having second thoughts about me staying the night.”

“I am glad you’re here Skylar was just thinking that my sister would be happy for me and she would approve of you.”

He pulled me closer to him and held me. He asked me about my sister and brother in law. I laughed and cried but it felt so good to talk about them. It made me feel like they were in some way still with me. I never wanted to forget them, and Skylar was helping me to keep their memory alive. It was just one more thing that made him such a great man.
