Chapter 813: EPILOGUE 9 (VOLUME 4)

Reece – Anniversary Date

When the night of our anniversary came around, I went up to our room and found my Little Bunny laying on the floor with the babies.

“Zaley, such a big girl already. Look at you.” The babies were having their tummy time with their mommy. I just wanted to say ‘aww’ when I saw them there like that. I didn’t though, because I had work to do. I needed to pry her away from the kids and drag her out of the house. And thankfully, my reinforcements were already here. And by that, I mean they were following me into the room.

“Trinity.” I called out to get her attention.

“h.e.l.lo, Reece.” She already knew that I was here. She knew it the moment that I started to approach the door.

“Come on, let’s go.” I wanted to get right to the point. Quick and simple.

“Go where?” She finally turned to look at me with curious eyes.

.....

“Don’t act like you don’t know what today is, Trinity.” Mom called out to her. “Don’t leave the boy hanging. Get up and get going.”

“I know what the date is, and I know what today is. I told Reece happy anniversary, and I gave him his gift. So where am I supposed to be going.”

“We’re not going to do this again, Trinity.” Eve put on her stern voice, the one that I was told was used most often with Carter than anyone else.

“What is it I am doing? I’m just laying here with the babies for their tummy.”

“Your mother and I can do that, Trinity. You’re going out with Reece.” This was partially reminiscent of our first date too. No, our parents weren’t there, but she didn’t know about my plans before I picked her up from those exams that day. That date had been on a Sat.u.r.day and today was a Sunday, so they were both weekends too. I am trying to match it as best as I can.

“Oh, so is this another one of those dates where Reece kidnaps me and makes me see that I am entirely too obsessed with my children and now he is feeling neglected because he is my first child, so now he is being all childish and throwing a tantrum?” I can’t believe that they all laughed at Trinity’s quip. Those fiends. I was not acting anything like that. I was not throwing a tantrum or being childish at all. I was just being smart and had my backup with me from the start.

“Ha ha ha, no sweetheart, that is not it at all.” Mom couldn’t even stop laughing as she started to answer my Little Bunny. “Reece wants to take you out for your anniversary. The babies are old enough to be left with their grandparents for a night, and you two deserve some alone time.” Was that a smile I saw on my Little Bunny’s face? Yes! This is progress.

“Fine. Just let me get them into their beds and I will get ready.” She started to get up as she was answering us, but I had a response ready for her.

“No need. They can get the babies, Also, you don’t need to get ready, just come with me.” I held my hand out for her and watched as she just stared at me.

“I need to change Reece. I look like a mess.”

“You look fine. Also, it doesn’t matter since you don’t know where we are going. You can’t plan an outfit for it. So, just come with me and I will take care of everything.” Obviously, she was taking in my outfit and thinking that I was an idiot. I was dressed in a nice designer pair of black dress pants, a dark green b.u.t.ton up s.h.i.+rt (also designer), and four thousand dollar Italian shoes. I was dressed for going out. While my Little Bunny, in her yoga pants and baggy s.h.i.+rt looked like she was dressed for the couch. That was fine though, she could wear that to dinner for all I cared. It was just clothes.

“I am going to change.” She turned away from me and started to head for the closet.

“Nope.” I wasn’t going to allow it though. I walked over to her, picked her up, and threw her over my shoulder. Huh, look at that, I did have to kidnap her after all.

“Reece, you dog, put me down.” She thumped her hands on my back as she yelled at me.

“Nope, not a chance. I am taking you as you are. So just stop struggling, or I will have to get creative.” As I walked out of the room with her over my shoulder, I heard all of my reinforcements laughing at us. I didn’t care though. I was the one that got the girl and was taking her to dinner with me. They will see us late tomorrow morning.

Well, my Little Bunny didn’t stop her protesting until I got us down to the garage. I was just glad that the elevator in our tower went all the way down there so that I didn’t have to take her through the castle. That was a new thing though, it never used to be like that. It was an addition that I had asked for a couple of months back. And it was proving to be invaluable.

“Fido, you’re a savage.” She was laughing as she said this, so I knew that she was having fun regardless of what she said.

“Me, Reece, take woman on date. Me, Reece, savage caveman. Me, Reece, no know better. Me, Reece, loves woman.” I spoke like a stereotypical caveman from the movies and made her laugh as I shut her door.

“Oh help! I am being taken away by a barbarian. Help.” Her words were soft and nowhere near the level of a scream.

“Scream all you want, no one will ever hear you. Muahahaha.” Now I was pretending to be a villain. Anything that I needed to do so that my Little Bunny would keep laughing and seeing this as a positive rather than as a pain.

“Seriously now, Reece, why did you do this? Why didn’t you just tell me you wanted to go out tonight?” She was giving me a completely serious look. I knew she wasn’t listening that day.

“I did. When I planned this evening, I told you and you said sure. But I knew that you weren’t listening to me all that much. So, when it came the time to leave, I made sure that all of my bases were covered. And in truth, I totally knew that I was going to have to carry you over my shoulder to get you out of there.” I laughed at how right I was. It was kind of funny actually. I mean, to have nailed this as well as I did was kind of amazing. Then again, this was Trinity we were talking about, and that meant that it was pretty much a done deal from the beginning that I needed to kidnap her to get her out of the house.

“I am sorry, Reece. I didn’t mean to ignore you. I was probably preoccupied or tired. If I would have remembered that you wanted to go out tonight, I would have made sure that I was ready to go. Now though, I am a mess and there you are looking like s.e.x walking.”

“Well, I am not walking right now. I’m driving.” I started with a smarta.s.s comment. “But I appreciate the compliment.” Now I winked at her and she just shook her head.

“My point is that we will be completely mismatched while we are out for our date.”

“Don’t worry, Little Bunny. I have everything taken care of. And, even if that were true, which it isn’t, I wouldn’t care. I don’t care what you wear or what you dress like. I love you for you. I can wear the most expensive suit in the world, and you can wear your lounge clothes and I would still want to be seen with you. You are my wife. You are beautiful. And nothing else matters to me.”

For a moment, my Little Bunny was speechless while I drove. She just sat there staring at me. I could even feel her eyes on me as I made our way down the long and winding driveway. I didn’t say anything though. She was obviously thinking about something quite intensely.

After a moment I heard her take a deep breath and then let it out with a big sigh. Come on, Little Bunny, this is a date. Don’t look so down. Or well, don’t sound so down.

“How did I ever get lucky enough to have you?” She was sounding so sweet right now that I had to look at her. She was giving me a look that told me how much she loved me, and it stirred things inside of me.

“Well, let’s see. First, I fell on top of you at a party. And then, when I found you again later, I literally threw you over my shoulder and kidnapped you so that I could take you back to my place.”

“Huh. You’re right. So, you’ve been kidnapping me since the day that we met. And I actually fell in love with you. d.a.m.n! Juniper was right all those years ago. I have Stockholm syndrome.” She laughed then and so did I.

“Hey, what does it say about me that I fell in love with a woman who keeps calling me dog names? I think we’re both a little messed up here. But we’re meant to be so that is all that matters.”

Well, at least the date was starting out good. Thankfully.
