Justin grimaced. “Bella…”
“I’m just kidding. Look at you.” Bella gave his cheek a little squeeze, but she was upset because his cheeks had sunken. “You look haggard. Are you trying to make me feel sorry for you?”
Justin interlocked his fingers with hers and fell silent, the tear stains from last night still evident on his face.
After much consideration, he decided not to talk about it. Instead, he sealed her lips and engaged in a lingering kiss.
He would remember the hurt and pain for her and make it up to her for the rest of his life.
…
Carrie woke up to learn Justin and Bella were there. Her face lit up with joy.
She wanted to check on Bella, but Ryan held her from behind. “Give Bella and Justin some time alone, my dear wife. They had it rough.”
“Uh… But I miss Bella.” Carrie’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
“Don’t you miss me?”
Ryan turned his wife around to face him and gave her a sad look. “I didn’t sleep a wink last night. Don’t you miss me?”
“Uh… I see you every day.” Carrie looked confused.
Ryan pouted.
Oh, no.
Ryan was still in the honeymoon phase of the relationship, but Carrie acted like they were an old couple now.
Panicking, Ryan wrapped his arm around Carrie’s waist and locked tongues with her. Carrie melted in his arms.
Carrie drew back after a moment, a sliver of saliva trailing from her lips.
“Be good and see Justin and Bella later, okay?” Ryan’s fingers rubbed against her moist lips. He was pleased with her bashful and intimate response.
“Alright then.”
With the kiss taking her breath away, Carrie said meekly, “I’ll make Bella a cake. She has a sweet tooth. I’ll deliver the cake to her later.”
