“Chase? Why did we wait so long?”

“I didn’t want to lose you, Val. Your friendship means too much to me. I was ready to forgo having sex with you just because I didn’t want to risk our friendship.”

“I felt the same way, Chase. I— you’re my best friend. I was scared, too.”

“I was only gone for three months to think that you almost married someone else,” I feel him shudder as he cradles me in his arms.

“Chase, I couldn’t go through with it,” I say softly. “I went to see Tony that morning to tell him. Then when I saw— what I saw, I called you because I knew you’d come. I knew you would rescue me, save me, because you always do.”

“And I always will, Beautiful.”

I look up at Chase, “I saw my motorcycle, by the way. It’s perfect. You remembered.”

“You’re my Bella, now.” Chase suddenly frowns, “Val, are you happy about the baby?”

“Yes. I had already decided I wanted this baby, no matter what. But I was scared. I didn’t want to lose you because of it.”

“I’m not going anywhere, Babe. Not now, not after one year, not after ten or twenty-five years. You’re stuck with me, Val.”

Chase kisses me as I wrap my arms around his neck. We hear the door open behind us.

“Well, I see you’re feeling better.”

Chase raises his head, “Carson, I’m gonna be a father.”

“Congratulations,” Carson smiles over at me.

The nurse comes in and hands us Chase’s discharge papers. She warns him, “We’ve given you painkillers that should last through the night, but tomorrow, you’ll be very stiff and sore. Take your prescription; it will help with the pain.”

When Carson drops us off at the house, we wave goodbye, and as soon as the door closes behind us, Chase turns and takes me into his arms.

He takes his time kissing me slowly and lovingly. He then starts to unbutton my shirt, and when he sees my hot pink bra, I smile up at him.

“I planned on meeting you at the door wearing only my lingerie, but when I got the call from Carson—“

“Damn, sorry, I missed that. Val, you know what I said about being willing to forgo sex to keep you as a friend?”

“Yes,” I say breathlessly.

“I may have been willing, but I’m awfully glad I don’t have to,”

Then we’re both pulling off our clothes. Chase turns and I gasp.

“Chase, you’re back. It’s already black and blue.”

“Yeah, but it won’t be stopping me tonight. I can still make love to my wife.”

I see the need and urgency in his eyes.

Once we’re at the bed, I lie back and pull him down on top of me. He immediately spreads my legs and surges into me. As soon as he’s in full hilt, he pauses, “Val, Babe, I couldn’t wait,” he states hoarsely.

“Chase, talk... later. Take me... Now,” I move my hips up to meet his.

“So demanding,” he laughs as I grab his butt and pull him toward me.

“Is this what you want?” He pulls out and then surges back in. “I wanted to make this last, but—“

Then he’s done talking, as he takes me and makes me his.
