Touching the Heart of Ace
Chapter 54

I was not happy; I was not at peace.

There was a time in my life when studying was the only thing I ever did, and the only thing I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

That was old me. And I was not even close to that person, now.

I could not sit still if the class extended for a bit more; I had this immense pleasure when a lecture got cancelled or Hell decided we had done good and could leave a little early. My heart was not with me.

It was miles away; and the technology had not yet been developed enough for me to be at two places at once. And I wanted to be with my heart.

But for once in my life, I had someone to push me to study; who pointedly repeated that this was my dream and I had promised that I would give it everything I had.

Robbie.

Old me would have been so surprised; but I knew he valued my education. Even when we were not nurturing and treasuring a tiny precious human, Robbie never let anything hinder my studies not even himself. But still, for him, to remind me why I was here, sitting in front of a laptop for my heart to be online, was a big leap from his own old self.

Nothing was different yet not the same.

The college was the same, so was the faculty. I was still the youngest one among my peers. I still had to teach, dance and study. I did codes and projects. But...

Then again everyone had changed; the Little Angel who came in like a hurricane in my life, was twisting and turning everything on her way and making it all better.

One look from her gave me enough strength to walk through deserts, swim through oceans, and most difficult of all; sit here and study because when she grew up I wanted the moral right to tell her that, her education was too important to let a silly love to stand in her way.

This was me trying to be better; there was another part of me who was also trying his best to be better than he ever was.

Could anyone believe if I told that my mom, Jason, Frankie and even Uncle Fred had agreed with me to extend my break from studies because baby girl was too small and it was Robbie who dragged me to my Uni claiming this was what I had to do?

I attended the video call request in the first ring.

??Hi, Angel.??

??Hi.??

??Why so serious???

I sighed at the man who was trying to make me smile, but I could not squeeze one out. It was one of those days. I was replaceing it hard to bring up reasons to remind me why this was worth it.

??I am so proud of you.?? He stated, his hair wet from the shower, eyes tired and baggy, forehead a bit wrinkled with stress lines and I had never seen anyone more handsome than him. I missed him like crazy.

??What did I do??? If he was going to tell me he was proud of me because I was in Uni, I was going to hang up this call.

?? You have the most marks this term, with a considerable gap than the second.??

??I do???

??Yeah, Dean sent your score card to your mom and she forwarded it to me. Please be so surprised when they call out your name.??

I shrugged. I had done good; I was expecting anywhere in the first three positions.

??Is she still there??? I refused to look at him in the face.

??Yes. Something about, Cali being so hot.??

Janice was there. She had done her hiding from the reality, again. But I had begged Robbie to let her in. Every time we visited the doctors they told us how important, the presence of a mother was for a growing baby girl.

If it grew my baby girl healthy, I was going to make Robbie agree to it. They needed to be the loving parents in front of Lia. Janice did not actively participate in her upbringing; but it was okay, Amelia just needed to know that she had a mother and she was there with her in her home.

Doctors were optimistic, some moms took a little more time to warm up to their kids. Especially during her teething, sick days, kids wanted their mom??s presence. I needed my mom when I was sick, even now. So, my baby also needed her mom.

??Did I lose you??? Robbie tapped the laptop screen.

I could not help my pout.

What was that sound? Was Robbie renovating???Is someone breaking down walls???

He laughed. ??It is our baby girl.??

??What is she doing??? I asked in horror. Where was she? Why was Robbie laughing? Was my baby okay?

??Uhh... Killing my suitcase? I don??t know!??

??What do you mean by you don??t know? Where is she!??

Robbie shifted the laptop screen sideways.

And the Little Horror was smacking Robbie??s suitcase with a... wooden spoon? She gave the poor thing a rapid three smacks before squatting down and examining her handiwork. Not satisfied yet; as she stood up and smacked it again a bit more forceful.

??Little Baby...?? I called her and she did not even mind my voice; so busy ??killing?? her daddy??s suitcase.

??Liaa...?? I knew she knew that it was me and she did hear the warning in my voice.

She looked at me fast before smacking it once more, then gave me her full attention.

??Baby, what will I say??? She frowned, looking so confused when I knew she was trying to throw me off the loop, looking like she was too young to understand what I was saying.

??Baby...?? I was not Robbie and she needed to come up with better tricks. ??What will I say???

I calmly waited and she knew this time I was not happy with what she was doing.

??Nooo... baee... nooo...?? She answered guiltily.

God! Her baby bird voice. I wanted to smile and cry at her and kiss her chubby cheeks.

Focus! Ace! Focus!

??That is right. I will say ??No, baby, no.???? She stared at me a few more moments, before raising her tiny arm with the wooden spoon to smack at it again.

??Babe...?? I warned and she popped the fingers of other hand in her mouth, a little defiance in her stance.

??Mm.?? I warningly gave a short hum, when she turned around to look at the suitcase. ??Drop it.?? I gave her the encouraging stare, ??droooop.?? I extended the word so she would catch the seriousness of it, when she raised it higher.

She waited a few more moments but then let that spoon go just like and it fell near her tiny feet.

I wanted to kiss her so bad, so precious and a tiny daredevil. She was making Robbie run for his money and we three knew it quite well.

She raised her arms to her daddy to pick her up; one with fingers still in her mouth.

Robbie picked her up, kissing her neck and climbed back to the bed. Robbie lied on his side and made a circle with his hand, so Lia could also lie down and stare at me through the monitor.

??Baby... Princess, I told you you can??t mess with daddy??s stuff. It is not a toy.?? I knew she did not understand why, but she knew I was not happy with it. So that was a win.

She had thousands of dollars?? worth of toys in her nursery, playroom, my bedroom, in Robbie??s bedroom and his office... she also had a baby drum set, which even had animal voices, but what was she playing with?

Her daddy??s travel suitcase and a wooden spoon.

Speaking of which... ??What was the suitcase doing there? Robbie, it takes literally takes less than a minute for you to take it to the closet.??

??Sorry...??

??No, you are not.??

??Look what you did.?? He booped his child??s nose. ??You made my Angel angry at me.??

Grrr... Was I raising two kids???What about the wooden spoon? It belongs in the kitchen... you know...??

??She cried for it when I served Baby Angel dinner. So... what was I supposed to do???

I sighed. Learn to say no.

God! I would have my work handed to me when I went back in a few weeks.

??Da!?? Lia shouted. That was how Lia played with her daddy??s heart. Add a cute little ??da?? at the end, Robbie would give her a nuke to blow up his butt. That man was a sucker and Lia used it to her advantage.

The first time it happened, he could not even speak but pepper her faces with millions of kisses. He ran around frantically to buy her gifts so bad, but I managed to control him, so he would not buy another tonne of toys she would throw away for a wooden spoon.

That was how she got a Princess Throne in her nursery. With her first ??da??.

??Yeah baby???

I shook my head at how emotional Robbie got hearing the ??da??. She gave three pats on his cheeks and ignored him in favour of staring at me.

??Dayee.?? She pointed her finger at me. ??DAYEE!?? She screamed.

??Yeah, sweetheart that is your Davey.??

She frowned and stretched her hand to me.

I wanted to leap across dimensions and kiss that tiny palm. How could she be so mine when she was not?

Did she know that, I was literally waiting this whole day for her call me Dayee?

Robbie smoothed down her hair and kissed her, though she was busy staring at me.

How fast did time go?

She learned to stand on her daddy??s chest, learned to walk on my stomach, now look at her already talking and demanding things.

I dreamt of her going to college, sitting next to me and studying, yesterday night.

Horrifying!

Which was why I did not want to be here. I was supposed to be on that bed, watching her play, hearing her call for us, doing everything a daredevil would do.

She smiled at me, like she knew what I was thinking about.

I puckered my lips and pressed to the monitor. ??Sleep well, Little Baby.?? I lied down also, still looking at my adorably blinking baby who was nuzzled safely in her daddy??s arms.

He started singing Beautiful Things by Bobby Darin and we listened to his amazingly beautiful voice. A demon with beautiful voice was a mystery, and my Robbie was anything less than a mystery.

You wonder why the nightingale sings

Lovers have wings, people wear rings

I noticed he was not wearing his ring; he used to, for occasions when his wife was pregnant but ever since our baby came into our life, I had never ever seen that plain golden band anywhere.

I thought he would for mom??s visit but he had not even bother for that too. I figured mom would ask him why, but she never did. Mom still hadn??t removed her wedding ring, and she wore dad??s ring in a neck chain. She never took it off though some of her stylists recommended it when she wore gowns and off-shoulder dresses.

Lia rolled to her side and squished her face into her daddy??s chest and his beautiful voice cracked a bit and gulped before he could sing again.

Life is full of beautiful things

Beautiful people, too

Beautiful people like you

She was fast asleep, her fist securely holding his T-shirt.

??I will never let you go, my Baby Angel. I will hide you from anything and anyone who comes for you.?? Robbie pressed a small kiss on her head and slowly rubbed her back.

We waited for another 45 minutes before he slowly pulled himself away from her, gently placing a baby seal for Lia to cuddle on. He cut off his main monitor and took his laptop before coming to the balcony.

Life is full of beautiful things

Beautiful people, too

Beautiful people like you

He sang again, looking at me and gave me a wink. He sighed, knowing what I was going to say.

??Why do I have to do this? Jason is not getting his M.B.A. Why should I do this???

??Jason will do his M.B.A. I promise. When you come home permanently, I am sending him off.??

??Really???

??Really, don??t tell him that. Madam and I are already planning on that.??

??It does not matter, this is stupid.?? She was growing up fast and I was here, looking at her through this stupid laptop.

??Baby... you know you want to do this. Remember the day you told me about your dreams???

I did. It was one of my favourite days in my life. Mom had banned me to go to this expo because it was too far and she could not take me there and I refused to bring a body guard. Robbie had promised her that he could take me there and I remembered jumping on my heels begging for my mom to agree. I remembered hugging Robbie to death that day.

We make dreams come true, was the theme of the expo and he had casually asked what mine was.

Get my post-graduation as soon as I finish my graduation and then I would start my own company and surprise mom and Aunt Marie, then I would give free computer classes to adults with zero computer literacy and build smart classrooms for underprivileged students. It was a dream because it was before I had met Jason, before Robbie and I became a ??we??, before I was utterly lost in his attention and before... Lia became my whole dream and world.

Apparently I had asked him if he would help me build a company, because he was a successful business man and I was just ??me??. He had promised he would do whatever it takes, if I let him.

I remembered giggling and telling him if he let me make a choice, I would always run away. He would have to do chain me to chair and make me do it. Robbie might have taken my suggestion far too literally in different regions of our combined life.

Taking decisions and going after what I wanted was not what I did. I was so used to getting things without asking and when put on a spot, I would drop everything just like that. I never had a reason to chase anything, until of course, my baby girl came to my life. Now I was chasing for her time, her attention, her drooly kisses...

??Glad to know.?? That was all he had said at that time.

??My dreams changed.??

??No it hasn??t.??

??How do you know???

??Because I know you. You just pretend to behave like that is for the best, all the while hoping it is otherwise. The terrifying thing is you whole heartedly push yourself to believe that.??

Was I such an open book?

??To me you always are.?? I pouted and whined bad.

??But, Robbie, I want to be there with her?? with you... ??She is already growing up so fast and I feel like I am missing this whole...?? I waved my hands around like a buffoon to make him understand. ??Baby, I never said you don??t want that. But that is not your dream. Now we are working both of our as...?? He cleared his throat at my look. ??butts off for you to have that dream and... have our baby grow up with both of us.??

When he worded it like that, it was like his dream was our tiny family growing up together. Were there moments he forgot he was married to the woman who slept in the guest room?

One of the reasons I so badly wanted to be in Lia??s life now was because my time was running low, the moment she figures out I was just a... ??nobody?? then she would not call me ??Davey??. ??Hey, hey, hey... whatever you are thinking right now, stop it. Do you think I want you away from me? Do you think I am happy that I wake up every day without being able to see your feeding our girl? Do you really believe that, baby???

I sniffled.

??Sweetheart, it is only for some more time. Bear it with me. Please.??

??One whole year more.?? I mumbled out.

??No, a lot lesser than a year. Every other weekends you are here. Every project breaks, you will be here. Every holiday, every extra day you get by adorably blinking at the Dean, you are going to spend it with us, with her. Adding all up, it is just a few more months.??

It was not like he had not told me all this before. Every time he would say the same things a bit different way, making me believe it might not be that daunting.

??There are days I want to tell you to come back; there are days, I just want to literally take you with me.?? He never told me that. ??Then I think that this was one of the things you had ever asked me to do. Don??t think that I am okay with your not being here, where I could see you in flesh, touch you to my heart??s content. I am only... You don??t get to see you. You don??t know how you look so happy after learning a new thing, how ecstatic you get when you have this projects, presentations and whatnot. I do. I know you believe you are not happy to study but baby you don??t get to see your eyes like I do.?? I felt so bad. I knew how Robbie needed me, his ??emotion?? for me was so deep and I knew he might be missing me... my body at least.

??Do you think she will remember me when she grows up??? I wished I could take that question back. It was vulnerable and heart-breaking and... I wished Robbie did not hear that...

??No.??

I wished I could nod my head like I wanted to, I begged my head to move, but the pain was so hurting for me to move a muscle.

??For her to remember you, there should be a moment in her life without you. As long as I exist, whether it is here or in hell, I will make sure you two can never leave me or each other. So, no, Angel, she will never get a reason to ??remember?? you. Don??t make any mistake Angel, the only reason you are there, is because it makes you utterly happy. You are coming back; the moment you write the last of your exam.??

His eyes were unnervingly still and I knew he meant every word. And I prayed that he would never change his word. I wanted to go back there, to my baby, to Robbie, to my home.

My family.

I was hugging my knees and staring at his chest because I had these storms of emotions in my heart, with fear being the prominent one. I wanted him to tell me that he would take me back to his home and he

would keep me there till the end of time.

??Please look at me.??

I hid my face between my knees. ??Kitten.?? Robbie called again and I peeked, behind the bangs that had fallen in front of my eyes. ??I miss you so much. Lia, more vocal than me. But this is the perfect time for you to get that certificate of

P.G because baby, as she grows up it would be more difficult for her and you to cop up.??

??What about you??? Dammit! My whole mind and control was in frenzy. Why did I ask him that?

??I am used to missing you. And I know you will never get that far before I catch you.?? I blushed bright.

Robbie narrowed his eyes when he heard my bedroom door open and I wanted to stuck my tongue out. Did he forget about Jason?

Yeah, he wanted me to have a smooth transition back to college, so we were now sharing an apartment; Jason and I. I did not want to go through his travel charges, because it would be offensive. But Robbie was right, knowing I was sharing this apartment with Jason, though he would be absent for weeks sometimes, stops this loneliness creeping into me.

??Who was that???

??My boyfriend. I have told him that he can??t come after 9 p.m. but he is getting rebellious as days?? pass.??

Did he really believe that? Shoot! If this was the face he made hearing of my boyfriend, I would never dare to joke about that again. He looked demonic, a cold shiver of fear crept on my back for the life of my

non-existent boyfriend.

??It is Jason, Robbie, who else would it be???

?? Your boyfriend.?? He whispered.

I giggled at scary Robbie. ??Is this how you make people follow you? By growling???

??Works every time like a charm.?? He was still too serious.

??Come on, let us sleep.?? I persuaded and he put on the big monitor in the bedroom before closing his laptop and climbed to the bed. I frowned as he did not take Princess to her cradle.

I nodded to my baby and he shook his head ??no??.

Daddy and daughter were a serious threat to my tender heart.

They were close, real close.

For my birthday, I was planning to go alone as I always did to the cabin with my mom, we had discussed everything and Lia was giggling as I said good bye, and was really playful until she saw me climbing on

a car and she stretched her and frowned when I did not pick her up.

She got confused as the car started to take off the driveway. Robbie walked back to the house and she started wailing, and I saw her trying to jump off his hands. When she screamed like her heart was

breaking, I had asked to stop the car, and ran back to her taking her back to my arms.

She attaching herself to my body like a scared little monkey.

For the first time in our birthday history, I brought someone to our family cabin and my mom was never more ecstatic to see her attached to my chest, still refusing to let go.

Robbie had dropped us off without making a fuss until at night.

??Angel, opened the door.?? He whispered to his call.

??What???

??I am here, open the door. I cannot sleep.??

Should have expected that, but I was happy that he was here too.

??I am coming.??

He made a beeline to her cradle, staring at her making sure she was safe and poked her cheeks lovingly. It was so sweet and my heart soared.

??I missed you.?? He had cuddled to my chest, pouting and being so adorable.

?? You cannot. We came here only today.??

He lowered me to floor and proved that he had missed me.

??I should go.?? He panted on top of me.

??Stay. I will wake you up early in the morning.??

??When did Robert come??? Mom did not look that much surprised, which surprised me, when we both woke up and late and joined her for breakfast.

??Yesterday night. Daddy could not sleep well without Princess by his side.??

Robbie left sooner after giving me a birthday present, so he would not hinder our family time.

So, he should understand what I was going through, right? Who was I kidding, if Robbie had made up his mind, nothing less than my heart broken sobs would change his mind.

I muted my call, so if I turned around in bed the voice would not amplify and wake our Little Baby up.

Robbie was still on edge; it was a stupid joke but my man was equally stupid. He sat up fast when he saw me talking to someone and I wanted to pinch his nose for being this jealous.

Jason poked his head into the laptop and smile seeing my sleeping girl. He pecked my monitor as a kiss to her and waved at Robbie before leaving the room. I could visibly see Robbie??s muscles relax from here. A lesser man would have rolled his eyes.

My Little Baby had better control than that. She did not like my picking up any other kids or even touching them.

One time we went for shopping, Robbie was buying me something as a surprise and we waited on a bench for him to come back. Across us, there was a mother who was feeding her infant while her toddler

boy just roamed around in her vicinity.

I was surprised when the kid wandered off to me and stood between my legs, clutching on my knee and smiled.

He might have felt safe, seeing a baby on my own hand too. I waved at his mother to show her that he was here and it was fine. ??Hello, Buddy. Don??t you want to help your mommy? Go, see her. Go.?? I gently prompted but he laid his face on my knee and blinked. I patted his tiny head and this spoiled little Princess punched my

chest, frowning. ??Liaa... look... a baby, isn??t he cute? I think he is a prince. Are you a Prince, Sir??? He giggled and stared at my baby. Lia did not stop glaring, not one bit happy that a potential competition

was hugging on my leg, and tried to take me away from her.

She turned her face away when I poked her cheeks to smile.

Like daddy like daughter.

The toddler did not mind, he was happy to see another baby face than his own sibling. Lia almost broke my neck in her tight hug as she pressed my face closer to her body and glared at the child who was

blinking at her from my knees.

That was how Robbie found us and damn, was he confused, if he had another kid that he had forgotten about.

That adorable jerk.

He stood behind the kid and looked at him like a bug under microscope.

It was funny to see the boy turn slowly at the shadow and came in face with Robbie??s leg. He tipped his tiny face up and up and up... up... up... Robbie was the giant he had read on his bedtime story as the

kid??s mouth dropped from its hinges.

I kept a hand on his tiny back, so he would not tip off to the floor, trying to see Robbie??s face. His small body was arched as bow, and he had only seen his stomach yet.

Sorry Buddy, you have another few more feet to go.

It was amusing to see both of the steel greys in my life looked equally confused.

??His mother is over there. She is breast feeding.?? I informed and Robbie??s eyes searched for the mom in question and found her worrying a bit.

He nodded to her to ease up her worry.

Robbie looked back to his tiny admirer in annoyance, who still had his mouth open. ??You can??t wander off like that. Stay with your mom like this.?? He pointed to Lia who was standing on the bench, my

hand supporting her weight, so she would not dribble off to the floor.

The kid did not even look to our direction, still so fascinated with the real life giant he had found in the woods... well, shopping mall. Robbie frowned at the kid when his plan to set his daughter as an excellent

role model flew above the kid??s head.

Robbie blinked twice before pointing his forefinger for the kid to hold. The kid took his sweet time but finally decided to touch Robbie??s finger and he had a whole body shiver- almost gave my man a heart attack- before wrapping his fist around it.

I did not know Robbie had the patience to walk that slowly, for the toddler to feel comfortable with the pace. I followed them with Lia on my hip, who looked happy that her daddy took the competition away. ??Don??t wander off and don??t follow a stranger.?? Robbie shook his forefinger on the kid??s face when they had reached his breast feeding mom. At least his mom could make him eat all the veggies now; her kid had found how he wanted to look when he was an adult.

The toddler stood between his mom??s legs still fascinated about the giant. I waved at him when we bid them good bye and he shyly waved back; his mom thanking us.

??Mommy... so big...??

??Eats his veggies.??

Told Ya!

I did not know how long I was staring at my sleeping family with a fond smile plastered on my face. Apparently long enough for Robbie to fall asleep with his own satisfied smile, making him look a lot younger.

Every night I feel asleep thinking I was loving them to the maximum stretch of my heart but with every morning they would replace another unlocked part of my heart and pound on it until I opened it fully for them

and gave them the keys.

My desire to go back home happened a bit more earlier than I thought. Robbie and I were talking through video call as usual, Princess playing with her toy cutleries.

Then Jason came in with his absurd haircut, and gave me ruffle of my own hair before stealing my perfume. Robbie closed off just like that.

??When are you coming home???

I frowned. We had discussed it the other day, so I reminded him that.

??Or we could come pick you up now.??

??What? No...??

??Why not? I thought you wanted to come home.??

??I did. I do. But I had promised Liam I would take him to the planetarium.??

??He will understand.??

He would, we had gone there over a five time but he loved seeing the planets.

??What happened???

I asked and looked at the baby who had squatted down and babbling and feeding her Barbie. ??Eeee bae eee.?? She was fine, what was this about?

He persisted and I disapproved. ??I can come alone, you two stay there. Day after tomorrow looks good.??

??No.??

We glared at each other.

??Baby Angel, let us go see your Davey.??

She dropped her doll and ran to her daddy.

??Dayee? Dayee... Da? Whay???

??Not here, we go bye-bye and see him.??

She stood on the bed when Robbie picked her up to show me.

??Bye-bye... Dayee... bye-bye.?? She jumped around and Robbie had his arms extended if she decides to move towards the edge.

??No, babe. You two stay there I will...??

??Noo bye-bye? No Dayee??? She stopped her jumping and popped her thumb in her mouth, her eyes filling with tears.

Robbie looked frantic and I wanted to smack his insensitive ass.

??Dayee... da. Dayeeeeeee... Dayee whay??? She plopped on his lap looking expectantly at him.

??No Davey now, we go pick him up.??

She sniffled. ??No Dayeee???

Robbie looked guiltily at me. ??Angel...?? He begged.

I hated Robbie sometimes. He had no reason to drag her happy innocent mind to our business like this.

??Sweetheart...?? I called her.

??No Dayeee... Dayeee no bae...??

??What do you mean by I don??t want baby? Look at me, sweet baby, look at me.?? God! Her troubled eyes. ??Baby is all Davey wants.?? I blew a raspberry and she sniffled.

??Uhh... Dayee...?? She extended her arms to me.

??I will pack my bags. Robbie I don??t care what you do, don??t drag her to our mess. She is too young to understand everything we say.??

Robbie looked down guiltily to his child who was rubbing her eyes with two fists. ??We go see Davey, now, Sweet Baby Angel.??

??Dayee.??

I nodded with my lips so far stretched into a smile, so she would know I was happy.

Saying yes and no, left and right to a baby was not a healthy way to nurture them. But it was getting difficult when Robbie and I was not in the same page. We needed to sit down and talk, since she had started

to pick on our emotions and words.

***

??Does this...??snap??...fucking feel...??snap??...good???

Oh Dear God

I was shaking on his arms like a rag doll.

More...I was this close to spilling.

??Say it. Say how much you love my cock inside you.??

I nodded a ??no??.

I was not going to. I bit my lips hard.

He stopped. My eyes flew open.

My eyes were glazed with lust. I pulled him closer.

Please I wanted more. Please. I needed more. But he was not going to. He lowered me to ground.

The moment he left my body I felt coldness seeping in.

I wanted his warmth. I wanted him in me now. I tried to pull him closer. But he took a huge step backwards.

What?

My legs were shaking. I looked down. He was hard. Real hard and weeping. I was too. Why?

I bit my lips to stop myself from begging.

He left me wanting and walked inside. What was he doing?

I watched as he took a seat on the couch. He spread his legs and leaned back, closing his eyes.

He was still hard. He had not come yet. In the jet, he had me coming with his fingers but not him.

Now too.

My eyes which I tried not to look at him, betrayed me and was looking pleadingly at him.

Please.

As if he could clearly hear my thoughts he opened his eyes and nodded to his cock.

I gulped. He wanted me to fuck myself on him.

I tried not to look at him.

But...

I walked to him like I was in trance. I was.

He licked his lips and touched himself. That made me needier.

??So fucking gorgeous. God!?? He was salivating.

I lowered myself on him and tried to replace that same pleasure Robbie was giving me.

Something was missing. I could not get that feeling not matter how fast or slow I went.

I thrusted my chest to his mouth and he bit and nibbled and licked on my buds.

??Please.?? I whimpered.

He was still waiting. His hands on my hips. Why was he not kneading me!

??Bastard, please.?? He bit his lips but did not make a move.

??Please, Robbie. I need you to... Please Robbie...?? The moment I started to beg I found myself unable to stop. ??Give me more, Robbie...??

He growled and flipped me over.

YES.

He started thrusting like a man possessed.

Finally, this was what I was searching for.

??Look at you Ace. So fucking gorgeous. You on my cock. I could die happy. I could die happy now. For you. Can you not see; I could give anything you want. Anything. Angel.??

I nodded.

Only he could.

He started kissing. And I sucked on his tongue. I was that thirsty. For him.

My eyes crossed behind my lids, my legs spasm, my toes curling as I screamed his name over and over again.

As I reached my limit. Something felt different though. Where was my reward? Why was Robbie not falling on me? Why was he not panting and whispering my name?

I was confused.

I watched Robbie leaving my body once again.

He was still hard. He had not come. He stepped away and panted. He had not come.

He put on his discarded sweat pants, threw me his shirt and left.

He took a water bottle from the fridge and went to his office.

My heart started to tear. So did my eyes.

I tried to remember everything that happened before coming home.

He asked me who was in the apartment countless times. Searching every nook and cranny as I sat with a babbling baby, as she gave me so many wet kisses calling me Dayee.

And his words... he said he could give me anything I ever wanted.

Did he think there was someone else with us?

Did he think I was with someone else?

I took my laptop and went to Robbie??s office. He merely gave me a look of indifference and went back to typing on his P.C.

I walked to his seat and sat on his lap.

I would have been invisible the way he kept on doing his work.

I video called Jason.

??What??s up? Well, are you not guys look cosy??? I was still wearing Robbie??s sweat shirt. And he was naked waist up.

??What the heck happened to your head??? Robbie shouted.

Jason face palmed. ??Are you guys telepathic???

Robbie looked at confused.

??Exactly what I asked when I saw him. I meant it like he was crazy.??

??Thank you so much, Dave. For defending my choice of style.?? He replied dryly.

I rolled my mind-eyes. Jason has a cornrow for hair now. He thought he would look street smart. It did not. He just looked like Jason with cornrow. And it was not suiting him. I tried telling him that.

??Did you guys called me to make fun of my hair???

??No, was there anyone....?? I started.

??No one.?? Robbie replied. He tightened his hands on my waist and yanked me closer and situated me properly between his legs. He was still hard.

I looked at him confused. So did Jason.

??There was no one else.?? Robbie was looking at me.

??Seriously, guys, are you telepathic???

??Jason, get rid of that mistake that you call a hairstyle.?? He closed the laptop before Jason could reply.

Robbie pressed his lips on nape of my neck.

??What was that about???

??Nothing.??

I stared.

??I did not know Jason would get ugly like that.?? He forced a joke.

?? You thought he was someone else.?? I concluded.

Robbie nodded.

I sighed. I got on my knees and took out his hardness.

So red. So angry.

He must be in pain.

I swallowed him down the throat.

Robbie winced. I tried as gentle as I could. He must be really sensitive now.

I felt him petting my head. I hummed and took him out.

He was too big to keep on going without taking breathers.

I lapped, rubbed him on my face. Something Robbie found so hot.

And it did, his grip on my head tightened. He pushed himself in my mouth.

Too soon I felt his hot essence flowing. I made sure I drank last drop and licked the dribbles clean.

I was tired. I gently place my head on his thighs.

??Robbie...??

??Hmm?? He was smiling, eyes closed and breathing heavily.

He gently opened his eyes when I did not continue.

??It is okay to be angry, but...please do not take it out on yourself.??

He nodded still smiling.

??Promise??? I prompted.

He stopped smiling. ??Promise.?? He nodded.

I kissed his deflating cock and closed my eyes. I was tired.

I felt him picking me up.

Sleep overtook me as I coiled my arms behind his neck.

What a day!

??Robbie...??

??Mmmm...??

??We need to discuss about our fights in front of Lia.??

??Yeah.??
