“Ana, what are you thinking? You seem so far away,” Jake asks.
I jerk my head towards Jake who looks worried. “It’s nothing. I’m fine. I didn’t realise I was in my own little world.”
I smile, trying to comfort him and I get back to finishing off the rest of my meal. I down my juice in one go, feeling the effects of a dry mouth after all that alcohol. Jake notices and dutifully gets up to refill my glass.
“Matthew, you want some more juice?”
He finishes off his glass and puts it on the table. “No thanks, Dad. If you don’t mind I’ve got an essay I need to finish off in my room?”
Matthew collects his plate and glass, and heads over to the dishwasher to load it in.
“Of course not, Matthew. Let me know if you need any help.”
He smiles heading out, as I gather up the other plates. I make my way to the dishwasher and load the rest of the dishes in.
Jake walks over to the inside of his jacket pocket and pulls out a wrapped long box.
“Ana, sit. I bought this for you. I saw it in the shop window and it had your name on it, so had to get it. I hope you don’t mind.”
Jake places the box on the table and sits down expectantly. I feel overwhelmed. He’s bought me a present for no reason. Does there have to be a reason?
I sit and trace the neatly placed bow on top of the wrapping with my finger. I feel sorry that this will all be messed up shortly. I unwrap the gift, seeing Jake’s expectant eyes upon me.
When I finally open it up, I gasp. Before me is a beautiful silver diamond encrusted Cartier watch. It must have cost him a fortune. I place my hand over my mouth and try to pull back the tears that are threatening to overtake me at any moment.
“Do you like it? Ana, please say something.”
He takes the watch for me and places it around my wrist.
“Jake, it’s the most beautiful gift anyone has ever given me, but I can’t accept this, it’s too much.”
He shakes his head. “No can do. I’m not taking it back. It’s yours, I want you to have it. Please don’t argue with me about this. You have to promise me you’ll wear it all the time.”
He looks stern like he’s ready for a fight, but instead I swing my arms around him. “Thank you, Jake. It’s the most amazing gift anyone has ever given to me. I love it and I promise I’ll never want to take it off.”
He squeezes me into him and sighs. “My pleasure, Ana. It looks beautiful on you.”
Chapter 21
The rest of the evening went on in eternal bliss from the beautiful present that Jake bought me. It was not so much the gift itself that made me giddy, it was the thought behind him getting the gift and what it represented.
We went to bed like the evening before wrapped up in each other’s arms sleeping soundly and peacefully. That is until the annoyance of the alarm came beeping through the room.
“Let me guess, is it 6am by any chance?” I sighed.
Jake presses himself into me and I immediately feel his hardness.
“I take that as a yes. How can you immediately be ready like this the second the alarm goes off?”
He nuzzles his head into my neck and gently nibbles my shoulder. “I guess it has something to do with the goddess of sex I have the pleasure of waking up to every morning. But if you don’t want me to make love to you this morning, then we’ll just cuddle.”
I grab his hand and move it down towards my forever wet pussy.
“Does that feel like I would say no to you?”
Jake hums in my ear. “Always so ready for me.”
Just like yesterday morning we made love careful not to make too much noise for Matthew’s sake. Then we got showered and dressed. Today I decided to wear a fitted grey dress and peep toe high heels, which Jake disapproved of and told me to take off.
“Jake, come on. It’s just a dress.”
He shakes his head. “I know, but you look so fucking hot. I just want to rip it off you and take you on the bed right now. I don’t want to have all the guys at work looking at you and thinking exactly the same thing.”
I shuffle over to the door and open it. “Jake, you’re being ridiculous now. Oh hey, Matthew, I didn’t see you there.”
I immediately turn a bright shade of pink as Matthew smiles at me. “My dad is being ridiculous? Who would have thought? Nice dress, Ana.”
I nod my approval and turn to Jake. “Well, thank you, Matthew.”
“I take it Dad doesn’t like it?”
Jake crosses his arms in distaste. “I’m not having my own son ganging up on me now.”
I try to quickly change the subject. “You’re up bright and early this morning, Matthew.”
