Forever You by Lynn, Sandi (e novels to read txt) 📕

When we reached the office, the nurse took us promptly to the room. Ellery changed into the thin

gown and sat on the bed, waiting for Dr. Murphy. She wouldn’t even look at me.

“Are you even going to look at me?” I asked.

“I’m so mad at you, Connor Black, I could scream.”

I walked over to her and tried to take her hand, but she pulled away. “If you think I’m going to

apologize, then you’re in for a surprise because I’m not. What you did last night was unacceptable

and immature,” I said.

“At least I didn’t take the guy home and fuck him like you did with random strangers!” she spat

while staring me straight in the eyes.

“Why did I even bother coming here?” I asked.

“I don’t know, Connor; why the hell did you?”

Dr. Murphy walked in and looked at us. She could feel the tension in the room. “Hello, Ellery, Mr.

Black,” she smiled.

Ellery laid herself down on her side, and I sat on the edge of the bed, facing her. She looked at me

and pointed to the chair. “You; go sit over there,” she growled. I sighed and shook my head as I got up

and sat across the room. She wouldn’t even look at me when the first injection went in. She

whimpered like before until the second injection pierced her skin, and Ellery let out a scream. She

held out her hand to me, and I was by her side in a second. She clutched my shirt in her fists as I

wrapped my arms around her and kissed her on the head. “You are the most stubborn person that I’ve

ever met,” I whispered. She cried as Dr. Murphy gave her the last injection. I climbed on the bed

while still holding her and laid myself next to her. It felt so good to have her in my arms again. I kept

kissing the top of her head as she tried to sleep for the next couple of hours.

When Ellery woke up and we got the ok from Dr. Murphy, I took her home, and she laid herself on

the couch. “Are you going to be comfortable there?” I asked her, but she ignored me. I knelt down in

front of her; my eyes staring into hers. “Would it be ok if I gave you a kiss? I’ve really missed those

lips.”

I laughed as she clamped her mouth shut. I ran my finger softly over her mouth and up her cheek. I

leaned into her and softly brushed my lips against hers. It didn’t take long before she gave in, and her

lips joined mine. She parted her lips so my tongue had access to her whole mouth. The kiss was light

and soft. I broke our kiss and looked at her. I didn’t say anything at first. I just stared at her, taking in

her beauty and thinking about how much I love her.

“I’ve never loved anyone like I love you, Ellery, and no matter what we’ve been through, or are

going to go through, nothing will ever change the way I feel,” I said.

Tears began to swell in her eyes as she cupped my face in her hands. “I love you too, and I’m

sorry, again,” she started to cry.

“I think we’re going to spend our whole lives apologizing to each other,” I lightly laughed.

She sat up so I could sit next to her. I pulled her onto me so her head was resting in my lap. I started

to gently stroke her hair as she fell asleep. I pulled my phone out and sent a text message to Denny.

“I need you to be in California the day after tomorrow. That’s when I’m proposing to Ellery.

Make the arrangements for the rental of the beach, the dinner, and tent. It has to be perfect.”

“Don’t worry, Connor; I have Valerie and Claire helping. Everything will be perfect. I’ll see

you in a couple of days. Now, calm down.”

I carefully lifted Ellery’s head and scooted off the couch. I covered her with a blanket and went

into the bedroom to call Phil. He told me that the cops were holding someone in custody that fit the

description of someone lurking around the building the night of the fire. He told me not to worry and

that he’ll take care of things while I’m gone. Just as I hung up, Ellery came walking into the bedroom.

“I hope I didn’t wake you,” I said as she wrapped her arms around me.

“No, I woke up on my own,” she smiled. “Who were you talking to?”

“I was talking to Phil about something that happened before I came out here.”

“What happened?” she asked with concern.

I pushed her hair away from her face. “It’s nothing for you to worry about. It’s just business,” I said

as I kissed her lips. Her hands traveled down my back as she firmly grabbed my ass. I broke our kiss

and smiled at her. “What do you think you’re doing?” I asked.

“Just feeling that tight ass
