“Trust me Stan I’ll never do anything that would take me away from her so have no worries. Besides who said I was doing anything anyway? I’m just interested in making sure she’s safe and happy, covering her tracks so to speak.” He didn’t look like he believed me and that was fine, I never thought he was a stupid man and didn’t expect him to become one now. As long as he didn’t pressure me to answer any questions, which I wouldn’t do anyway, we were fine.
“Can I ask you something son?”
“What’s that?”
“Why my daughter? I know your family, know a little bit about you too; you could have anyone around here why a young girl with so much hanging over her head?”
“I thought I told you that already, my heart knows her, she belongs to me.” He shook his head at me as he stood from his seat and walked around his desk. “Thanks, for doing something that I couldn’t.”
“Don’t think of it like that Stan, we just came at it from two different angles. Your hands were tied because the law knew about you, they don’t know about me, and my resources. Besides it’s not about who does what as long as we get it done. You still coming up with us right?”
“Yeah I’ve already taken care of things here. I can’t believe my little girl is going off to college, that’s the only thing that was bothering me once we got her away from him. I hated the idea of her putting her life on hold but she was too scared.”
“Well now she isn’t, we’re not gonna let him win.” I clapped his shoulder as we headed out of his office.
I went back out to her and kissed her bye. “Be good baby okay, I’ll see you in a couple hours.” With one last kiss and a rub on her ass I headed for the door. “You and me are gonna have a chat later about that get up.” I threw the words over my shoulder and where as before she would’ve shied away from confrontation this time she blew me a sassy kiss and grinned. That’s my fucking girl.
I needed everything to be perfect for the upcoming weekend. I’d decided to give her her ring while we were away. I was still trying to figure out the whole wedding thing, I knew fuck all about that stuff. I couldn’t ask Josh because his shit wasn’t exactly conventional and I wanted Kadyn to have a girly type thing because somehow I knew she would want that. I also wanted her mother to be here so there was a lot that needed to be done in a short space of time. School was only a few short months away and I wanted the deed done before we left Sea Crest. Since I’m a male and a Steele at that there’s a safe bet that I’d muck shit up, so that’s what I was about to go hit mom up for now. I’m sure she would be only too happy to help.
I headed to the computer store first. Kadyn had left everything when she ran, afraid that he’d use that stuff to find her somehow. The phone she had now was an old throwaway type thing, which she thought might be safer. I’m not quite sure what happened there or why she decided it was too dangerous to use it to call her mom. I got her all the latest shit and made the sales guy very happy, I’ll leave the cases and other doodads to her and her girls since I know both Carrie and Nessa have some fancy shit that they wrap their stuff in.
I left the mall and headed for home my excitement growing the closer I got. I was about to change my life in a big way. I’m sure my family knew I was headed in this direction, but they had no idea how soon that would be. I wasn’t worried about them thinking that it was too soon, or that we hadn’t known each other long enough, mom and dad knew the deal. I was truly amazed though at the turn my life had taken. It was the best fucking rebound in history.
I barely got the words wedding out of my mouth when I got in the house before the screaming started and I was pushed aside, while mom and her crew took over. “Just make sure that she gets her colors and all that other happy shit. Don’t say anything about this until after I give her the ring okay.” I showed her the ring and she did that thing that I guess all women do. The tears began and then the three of them were cooing and telling me what a great job I’d done. “Okay give it back.” I wiped off their fingerprints and headed out of the kitchen where they were busy making one of their gastronomical messes. This was a good thing because that means I’d get the time I need alone with Josh to do what I needed to.
