Broken Dreams Stories 49
I woke up in bed again, completely confused about how I got there. My head was in Josh’s lap, and Drew sat on my other side, holding two fingers against my pulse; he was looking at his watch, and I could see his lips moving as he counted. When he was done, Drew moved my arm back onto the bed and, seeing I was awake, ran a hand across my forehead.
“Hi, angel, welcome back.” Drew smiled gently as he moved his finger before my eyes, ensuring they responded correctly. When he was satisfied that I was ok, he sat back. Jake slid my head onto a pillow and moved to see me better.
“What happened, and why did I pass out? I thought my concussion was gone.” I started worrying that something was wrong and I would ruin our lake trip.
you’re ok,” Jake promised, squeezing my hand to get my attention.
“Baby girl, you’re
“Angel, sometimes when you orgasm hard, you pass out. Jake called me as soon as it happened; you were out for less than five minutes. Your breathing and pulse are perfectly normal.” I nodded my head.
“So I’m ok; I’m not going to ruin the trip?” I asked worriedly.
“No, baby girl, I promise, and even if you were sick and needed more care than Drew could give you, none of us would ever blame you.”
“OK, is it ok for me to get up now?” I asked Drew. He told me it was OK to move around, and getting up, he walked to the end of the bed, picked up his first aid bag, and put away what he had pulled out.
“Come on, baby, let me brush out your hair, and then we will be ready to go.” Josh kissed me and then went into the bathroom, bringing out my toiletry bag. Sitting down again, he pulled me between his legs and carefully worked the brush through my hair.
“You’re good.” I complimented him when, ten minutes later, he had worked out the tangles, leaving my hair smooth and straight. He kissed the top of my head as lush put my brush away. Holding his hand out for me, I slid off the bed, and hand in hand, we walked out into the sitting area where the rest of the guys were waiting.
I spotted Mike sitting on the couch, and squeezing Josh’s hand, I walked over to Mike and climbed onto his lap; cuddling against him, I reached up and cupped his face. “I’m sorry for being a brat earlier,” I said quietly.” I promise I will behave better.” Mike wrapped me in a hug, smiling down at me.
“I know you will, honey; all is forgiven,” Mike promised. Helping me stand,” Let’s get going; checkout is in fifteen minutes.” Mike said, linking his fingers with mine. There was a flurry of activity around us as the other guys brought out bags; Jamie and Sean were in the hallway with a luggage cart and began loading it up. Mike and I did one final walkthrough, ensuring we didn’t leave anything behind. Sean, Patrick, and Jake had already gone down in the elevator. Patrick was checking us out, and Sean and Jake loaded the SUV. When the elevator let the rest of us out at the lobby, the SUV was packed and waiting by the front entrance. Everyone climbed in, and we were off.
Once we left the city behind us, I was glued to the window, watching the scenery go by. I had been to parks in the town before, but nothing compared to the miles of forest passing by us. We stopped in a charming small village for lunch and decided to pick up groceries since we were only forty–five minutes from the house. Sean waited with the SUV while the rest of us went into the small market, with Jamie bringing up the rear.
I took one cart, Patrick grabbed a second one, and we split up. I picked produce and things to make quick lunches while the others were responsible for meat and snacks. We quickly filled both carts, and after a trip down the candy aisle for extra chocolate, we were back on the road within an hour.
The closer we got to the lake, the more excited I got. I was bouncing in my seat like an excited toddler. The guys were laughing and teasing me, but I could tell they were excited, too. Soon, we were turning onto a smaller road; then we were finally there, Sean parked in front of the cutest house I had ever seen, and I immediately fell in love with it. The house was surrounded by trees and sat above the lake; I could see stairs leading down to the water from the back of the house. The house was the same shade of green as the surrounding forest, with a river rock decorating the bottom quarter of the house. The stairs leading to the front door were also made of river rock. We all piled out of the back, and I stopped to take a deep breath. The smell of pine and cedar surrounded me, and a cool breeze from the lake ruffled my hair.
“OK, this is the best place ever. Can we move here permanently and never go back to the city?” I begged. The guys all laughed as the look on Jamie’s face turned to one of horror at the thought. Jamie, A city boy through and through, was very much out of his element up here. I’m unsure if the man “owned anything besides business suites because that is all I had seen him in since we left the city. C
“Sorry, love, it would be a little hard to run our business from the backwoods of Main; plus, they that’s a lot more to deal with than the few inches we get at home,” I had to agree with Patrick on being more winter than I was ready to handle.

“OK, what about for Thanksgiving or Christmas? A Christmas up here would be beautiful.” I spun around in a circle, imagining ju ground to make it a white Christmas, with lights and a tree with presents.
“We will talk about it when it gets closer,” Drew promised. “It probably won’t be this year, though. Mike and I will be back overseas by then, and the military doesn’t give us time off for the holidays.”
“Wait, we won’t all be together for the holidays?” I gasped, staring at them in shock. Josh came over and pulled me to him, arm securely wrapped. around my waist; he led me to the back of the SUV, where our bags were waiting. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Baby girl, it’s five months away; a lot can change in that time, especially with the military,” Josh said, kissing me deeply and then handing my bag to e. I looked up at the house in front of me. This is something I would have to put a pin in for later. I would not let something five months away rain
my excitement.
