Need Your Number: Chapter 35

July

Zane is outside mowing the lawn so that it is finished before he heads to training camp for the week. Tilly, our puppy, is sleeping in my office. Zane picked the name Tilly since that’s another word for fight in hockey. I didn’t mind, though, because it is a cute name. We found the most beautiful home on the outskirts of downtown. It has a decent yard and has four bedrooms with an office. We moved in last month and finally are completely unpacked. In May I picked out my wedding dress before I had to fly to train a football team’s social media team. So, it has been a very busy few months.

Once the lawn is mowed and I am caught up on work, we decide to have drinks by the pool. One of the best things about this house is the pool and yard. We are lounging on pool floats when suddenly I am in the water. I come up for air and feel Zane grabbing at my bathing suit, pulling one of the strings, and it falls open. I pull the string on the top, taking it off completely. He pulls me into him, and I wrap my legs around his waist. He tilts my chin up and we start making out. I grind against him, feeling him growing harder. He pulls the strings on my bottoms and they go floating away.

He buries his head into my neck, kissing me while he guides himself into me. I will never get tired of how amazing sex is with Z. Backing us up against the wall, I can feel my back scraping while he pounds into me. I grab a fistful of his hair as he reaches down to my clit.

“Fuck, Z, this feels amazing,” I moan into him.

We both climax before he pulls out but keeps holding me to him.

“I am going to miss you, sunshine,” he murmurs into my hair.

“I will miss you too, babe. But we will stay busy to fill the time. You with practice and me with work. Plus, I have a doctor’s appointment,” I say, hoping he picks up on the doctor’s appointment.

We have talked about wanting kids, and they say you need to give your body time off to get rid of the birth control and it can take around a year to get pregnant. I decided to come off now so we can start trying after the wedding.

“Doctor’s appointment for what? Is everything okay?” he asks, concerned.

“I am fine,” I tell him.

“Then what’s up?” he says.

“I am getting some blood work done and letting my doctor know I am going to stop my birth control,” I inform him. “

“What? Really? Am I going to be a dad?” Zane asks.

“Calm down, it will take some time and lots of practicing, but yes, hopefully in the next year we will be parents,” I say, smiling.

He twirls me around in the pool, so excited. This man is going to make an amazing dad.

We have dinner and sit out watching the sun set, having a glass of wine with the puppy playing in the yard in front of us. I can’t believe this is our life. We fought hard to get here though, and we deserve every ounce of this. I head up to shower while Zane finishes packing. Climbing into bed, he wraps me in his arms the same way he has done for months. Sleeping without each other sucks because this is our normal. I fall asleep as he sprinkles little kisses on my head.

The next morning, I wake Z up with my lips wrapped around his cock. “Good morning, sunshine. I love waking up like this,” he moans. I know he has to get up soon, so I make sure to use my time wisely. Twirling my tongue, then giving the tip a little suck before I take the whole thing. He wraps his hand in my hair and I take my hand, cupping his balls. I begin to choke as he fucks my mouth faster and harder. It’s not long before he is shooting cum down my throat.

I get up to head to the office and he gets ready to leave. He pins me against the wall, giving me an extremely passionate kiss. He pets the dog and heads out the door. I grab coffee and load Tilly up, and we head to our office downtown.

When I arrive, Celisa is at her desk on the phone but Tilly runs right to her. I head to my office to start my day. My computer is just turning on when Charlie walks in to talk about the three new teams interested in hiring us. Working with those two is amazing and it has been such a journey. “I got three interviews, including Stacy who was a student intern with the Penguins’ basketball team,” Celisa says.

“Keeping it local – I love it,” Charlie tells her. I smile and we all get down to business, focusing on our tasks for the day while Tilly runs around.

My business is taking off. We have five pro teams, four colleges, and one sports TV station on our client list. We don’t need to advertise anymore because our clients are walking billboards. I do miss my time actually doing the grunt work with the teams – filming, bonding, and editing. But the trainings I offer are making huge strides in sports media.

I even got the chance to work with the Savannah Bananas on a campaign to raise funds to help domestic violence survivors. It was sponsored by Converse and had an amazing turn out of professional athletes who came and donated. It was beautiful to see the turn out and have it sponsored by my favorite brand, alongside the inspiration for my career.

We order some lunch and while we are sitting in our conference room eating, someone delivers flowers.

Celisa reads the card out loud, “‘I miss you already, sunshine. I will see you soon. XOXO- your future baby daddy.’” Then they are both jumping up. “OMG, are you pregnant?”

“What? I am not pregnant. I said we could start trying after the wedding, but I have an appointment tomorrow to come off my birth control. He knew you would read the card and wanted to fuck with me,” I tell them.

The rest of the week passes without incident. My appointment goes great. I stopped my medicine yesterday. I am meeting Lucy and my mom tomorrow to go over some wedding stuff. Zane gets home tomorrow afternoon, which is the most exciting. I can’t wait to see him. I head to bed knowing tomorrow is a busy day.

Leaving my mom’s house the next day, I head home to start dinner. When I get home, I see Zane’s Jeep in the driveway. He got home early! I sprint inside to see him. He is standing in our bedroom, unpacking his bag, when I run over and jump into his arms.

“Welcome home, babe,” I murmur into his lips.

“Glad to be back, sunshine,” he says. Walking us to our bed he sets me down. “I believe I owe you for how you woke me up before I left,” he says with a wink.

He lifts my dress and loops his finger on the straps of my thong, pulling down quickly. He runs his tongue across my pussy lips.

“So wet and ready for me already, babe,” he says.

He licks me and sucks on my clit. It doesn’t take long before I am cumming on his tongue. Fuck, he is so good at pleasing me. We end up having mind-blowing shower sex before I go cook dinner.

The rest of July flies by and it’s now the first Friday in August. We leave for our respective bachelor/bachelorette parties today. I am excited as I drop Tilly off with Penny to be watched while we are gone. We are headed to Jamaica for the weekend, and the boys are going to Vegas. Getting back home from dropping Tilly off, Zane sets me on our kitchen counter, making sure we leave for our trips satisfied.

He moves my sundress up and slides my panties to the side.

“Such a pretty pussy,” he says. Then he bends down, licking me from top to bottom. I shudder from the stimulation with the cold counter and his warm mouth on me. Once he has me about to climax, I grab his hair, holding his mouth to me as I cum. He pulls back and smiles. “Delicious,” he says, winking. I go to sit up but he stops me.

“Be a good girl and spread those legs again, sunshine,” he moans, while he pulls his cock out, stroking it. “Touch yourself, baby,” he whispers. I reach down, rubbing my clit with one hand and my nipple with the other. I let out a quiet moan, then Zane is sliding into me. He fucks me hard and fast, making me have to grip the edge of the counter. He lifts me up and pins me to the wall, still inside me. He proceeds to rail me so hard you would think the wall was going to come down. He finally puts his fingers on my chin, lifting it and kissing me. We both orgasm as he kisses me on that wall.

Charlie, Celisa, Lucy, and I have an amazing time relaxing on the beaches. We drink and eat lots of food. I didn’t want anything crazy, and this was perfect. We don’t do any excursions, opting to enjoy spas and massages instead. On our last day we all get wasted on the beach. Those fruity frozen drinks really sneak up on you. We joke and laugh about how I swore I would never date an athlete after Justin, yet Zane roped me in. I brag about my life that will be forever filled with mind-blowing, body-shaking orgasms.

The girls and I reminisce on what this year looked like with the team, the girls nights, and everything in between. I do slip in my matchmaking plan with Lucy and Stuntz. She laughs it off. Celisa and Charlie chime in their support of my plan too. Lucy tries to change the subject to Charlie and Luke. Charlie shakes her head saying a girl can wish but she won’t hold her breath.

Monday morning comes way too soon as we board our flights back home. I am excited to see Zane and Tilly, though. I can’t believe our wedding is in one month.

The next three weeks fly by when we get home, with working and trying to make sure the wedding plans are finalized. Zane is acting like having sex is his new career. The man has fucked me on every surface of our house more than once. I am not complaining, but that keeps me busy at home. I am slammed at work with hockey and football starting up. I am working on wedding stuff whenever I can. I feel like this time leading up to the wedding is more stressful than it should be. I guess most brides feel like that, though. Zane is trying to help but he is so busy training for the season about to start. I tried not to travel much so I could be here handling things.

I am taking this week off to get ready for the wedding this weekend and then the week after the wedding off for our honeymoon. We are flying to Turks and Caicos and staying in one of those cute bungalows. It looks so relaxing out there, and why not spend some of our hard-earned money? Our bridal parties have been amazing at making sure that we have all the help we need. I am hoping that maybe something happens with Lucy and Stuntz. She has always had a crush on him, and weddings tend to bring people together. I saw how she looked at him when we had everyone over recently. He’s a great guy and I would love for her crush to develop into something more. This would be the perfect time for me to try and help them come together. I know I made some drunk jokes about wanting them to be together, but I do think they are a good match.

I spend the week making sure to get every single thing handled. I pick up my dress, leaving it with my mom. I get my nails done with Lucy. I pack my honeymoon bag and I supervise Zane packing his because he will forget something. I make sure I have Tilly’s stuff together for her stay at Penny’s house while we’re on our honeymoon. Zane and I pick up our marriage certificate at the courthouse. Then I make sure to put our rings in my day-of bag, or else Luke or Zane will forget them. I am making sure we are ready for our start of forever.

Friday morning, I wake up to Zane under the covers, lightly licking my slit. I fell asleep after sex last night, so I am naked already, which is convenient for him. I moan and he begins to lick my clit more. The feel of his beard on my thighs is extremely stimulating. He flicks his tongue on my clit, then switches to sucking on it while he slides two fingers in and out of me. I squeeze his head with my thighs, yelling out his name with my hand wrapped in his hair. While I come down, he lays back on the pillow and I climb onto him. I guide his cock into me, slowly riding him. I toss my head back, bracing myself with my hands on his chest. I bounce up and down while he plays with my nipples. When he is about to cum he smacks my ass, then starts rubbing my clit. We climax together.

“The next time we do this it will be as husband and wife,” he moans into my neck.

He gets up and packs his bags. He will be staying at the hotel next to the college where we will spend our wedding night. I help him get his bags loaded up, including my honeymoon bag. He also is going to take Tilly to drop her at Penny’s on his way.

“I love you, sunshine. I can’t wait to make you Mrs. Zane Miller,” he says before picking me up and kissing me like it will be our last kiss ever.

The way he wraps his fingers in my hair and uses the other hand to cup my ass, holding me up, makes my insides flutter. Him holding me like this never gets old, and I hope he never stops.

I tear up as he drives away, knowing when I see him again, it will be at the end of the aisle. The girls will be meeting me at the rink around eleven. We are getting ready in the locker rooms. I make a glass of wine and go relax in the hot tub as the sun sets. After some time in the hot tub, I head inside to shower and hopefully get a good night’s rest.
