For the Love of Lilly - Part 2, Chapter 5

Hey guys sorry it took so long to post. Hope you're all still reading, but here is the next chapter of Lilly's story. Here is a pic of Benny's parents, except I imagined his dad being a bit younger than the man in this picture.
*************************************************************

When I woke in the morning I stretched as usual, but after a few seconds I realized where I was and then only half a second after that to realize that Benny was missing, I quickly sat up and looked around then I saw a tape on the bedside table with a note on it.

'Put this in and listen to it, then follow the instructions and Lilly no arguments. Happy anniversary Baby I love you xoxo'.

I smiled not only because he knew me so well because I hated doing what I was told but also because he hadn't left me for some other girl. He loved me and this was part of the surprise he had planned for me. I smiled then I looked at the clock it was 10am the latest I had ever slept in. I crawled across the bed to put the tape in and it started with our song. I started singing along and laughing at all the memories it brought back, then when the song finished Benny's voice came across.

"Baby I wanted to let you sleep in but now you're awake go to my bathroom and have a quick shower and get ready. You will find the appropriate clothes in the bathroom and head downstairs and follow the clues."

I laughed and did as he told me I had a quick shower and found my jeans and T-shirt on the bench. I got changed and pulled my hair up in a pigtail, put on mascara and walked outside the room. On the rail was a card with two red roses on it. The card said-

'From the first time I saw you, I knew you were special, just at the time I didn't know how special... head downstairs.'

I walked downstairs smelling the rose and thinking how lucky I was to have such an amazing boyfriend who would do all this for me. Then I spotted the second card with four red roses on it.

'The first time you spoke to me, you probably don't remember what you said, but I do and I knew from then on I had to make you mine... walk to the front door.'

I did thinking about the first time I saw him, then I saw the next card this time it had six red roses.

'You are everything I could have dreamed for in a girl and more than I could ever hope for, you're amazing and I wonder what I did to deserve you... Walk out to the letter box, I think you have mail.'

As I walked outside to his driveway I wondered when he had time to set this up and what would be waiting for me at the other end. I was excited and suddenly couldn't wait to see Benny. As I reached the mailbox, I saw another eight roses on the top but I couldn't see the card so I opened the mailbox up and it was inside.

'Without you my life has no reason, for you are my only reason to live because to lose you will mean losing my heart and you know we cannot live without a heart... go to my car.'

I couldn't help but blush at what these cards said, I was so lucky because he loved me and I loved him. We had what some people spend their life searching for and even though we were young. It didn't matter, I was glad it meant we had longer to spend together. Once I reached the car I was holding all twenty roses still, they were beautiful. I couldn't see a card on the outside so I opened the car up and there on the front seat was four more roses and a card and the keys. Now I was confused where was I meant to be going.

'Without a doubt you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You have kept my feet on the ground and prevented me from being a spoilt brat, but you have given me more than that... Drive to 188 Buckham road Paling and I know you feel bad driving my car but don't worry.'

I was in too much of a hurry to see him to worry about driving his car, I only worried because his car was so much nicer than mine and I didn't want to damage it. But today I just wanted him so I drove off with the twenty-four red roses in the front seat. When I finally reached the address I saw three roses on the mailbox, but these were white. As soon as I saw them I found the card and grabbed the roses and put them in the front seat with the other.

'You have made me the happiest person in the world, no girl could ever take your place because the hold you have on me, on my heart is unchangeable and it will last forever, no matter what I will always and forever love you... Follow the road to the barn and your surprise is inside.'

I almost ran to jump in the car and I quickly started the car. After I have driven several hundred meters, I could see the barn. Now I was nervous and excited and I was a little worried so when I got there I got the roses out of the car and slowly walked towards the barn. Then I opened the door, it took a few seconds for my eyes to adjust to the change of light. Then I saw him standing in the middle of the barn holding one pink rose. I took a deep breath and walked towards him as I said-

"Hi, my name is Lilly. I look forward to getting to know you better. I think we will get along really well." He smiled.
"Hi Lilly, my name is Benny and I agree. I think we will get along extremely well." We both stared at each other as I took the last step towards him and I hugged him and he kissed me then he said-

"One red rose for each spectacular month we have been going out, three white roses for the three months we were friends first and a pink rose because you are the only girl for me." I smiled.
"Benny thank you so much. This is the best surprise ever and I love you so much." Then I kissed him again then he smiled and cheekily responded.
"Baby, I am not your surprise, you have always had me." He chuckled.
"What?" Was the only response I could think of.
"No baby look inside the stall." I looked up at him then to my left and there were two beautiful horses I gasped shocked.
"We're going for a ride." He said matter-of-factly.
"Really thank you so much, you're the best." I said kissing him again.
After we put the roses down in the other stable and I borrowed a pair of boots we saddled up and we rode off. We had a lovely ride and it was so romantic we. Even stopped by the creek for a quick swim after we got back, we hopped into his car. Roses and all and he drove to my house.

When I realized where we were headed I turned to him.
"Baby my stuff is still at your house. Can I come around later to get it and help your family with the cleaning up? Oh and do you want your presents now or later?" He laughed at what I said and turned to me and said, "Baby our date's not over. I just thought u might want to change and we will swap presents later. Okay so bring my present if you want." I smiled relieved it wasn't over yet.
"Okay, but Benny babe what do I need to wear?"
"Ummm, just a casual dress or something."
"Okay, are you going to give me any clues?" I inquired, he chuckled again.
"No way baby, I like surprising you." I scowled at him as we turned into my street.

"You know it's not fair. Today you have given me all these (I said as I pointed to the roses), a horse ride and you bought me a dress and then I am getting a present later and all I have given you is a present."
"Lilly, don't think about it ever. Just enjoy it okay, that's what you can give me." I smiled
"Fine but only cause you asked me." He laughed as he stopped the car outside my house.
"You coming in?"
"Yes let's go. I should say 'Hi' to Linda and Jeremy shouldn't I."
"Yes so you can explain why I have so many roses." We laughed then walked towards the house with his arms wrapped around me.

"MUM! DAD! I'm home." I yelled up the staircase.
"Hey sweetie, hey Benny! Did u kids have fun at the party last night?"
"Yes mum, it was great I met heaps of new people and we got like a million photos taken."
"You should have seen her, she was wonderful talking to everyone making new friends." I smacked Benny's arm.
"I'm sure was, she always is amazing."
"Stop it you guys are making me blush!" We all laughed.
"Hey mum where's dad?"
"Oh he is fishing with the boys this afternoon, then we're going to Freddy's for dinner and drinks. Oh by the way Benny tell your parents we're sorry we couldn't stay long."
"That's okay Mrs. Andersen, maybe next time hey."
"Definitely... so what are you kids getting up to today?"

"Well, since it's our anniversary, we're spending the day together. But Benny won't even tell me what we have planned will he... no." I said scowling at him but he just smiled then he squeezed my hand and kissed me on the cheek which made mum laugh along with Benny.
"Well I took her horse riding this morning and then I have something else planned for tonight." Then mum finally looked at all the roses in my hands.
"WOW they are so beautiful and there is so many of them?" I chuckled.
"Well I bought her three white roses for the three months we were friends, twenty-four red roses for each month we have been dating and one pink one because she is the only girl for me." Mum sighed.

"Lil baby you struck lucky with this one. He is amazing and romantic, you better not let him go." I couldn't help smiling.
"Mum there is no way I am letting him go anytime soon." I said as I wrapped my arms around his waist.
"Thank goodness for that." Benny said as he wrapped his arms around me and raised his head to the roof, mum laughed lightly.
"Well I forgot it was your anniversary. I was going to ask you to pick us up from Freddy's tonight, but I doubt you will want to leave your boyfriend and come get us" She laughed lightly again.
"Ummm not really mum but if you really need me too, I can come get you guys. I'm sure Benny won't mind, actually he will probably be glad to get rid of me for a while." We all laughed.

"Baby, I don't want to get rid of you ever, but I guess I can give her up for a little while so she can come and get you... actually I will probably come with her."
"No it's alright I will call Freddy and ask him if we can stay in his guest house. He only just added it and he did offer for your dad and I to stay anyway."
"You sure mum because we really don't mind?"
"No it's fine, but that means you kids will have the house to yourself." I couldn't help the red flush that crept into my cheeks and when my mum looked up she laughed and I hid my face into Benny's chest which made him chuckle as well. Then mum started walking off.

"Well I have to go call Freddy and if I don't see you two later have a good day and be safe tonight okay?" I almost choked mum and I talked about my relationship with Benny because sleeping with him for the first time was a big step and I wanted us to be safe. So I told mum and she was really relaxed about it and she didn't freak at all but it was still awkward when she brought my sex life up so casually and especially in front of Benny, who had started laughing. I stepped out of his embrace and playfully slapped him.
"Babe you know how much I hate it when she brings up my sex life."
"You mean 'our' sex life baby and don't worry I think it's cool how laid back our parents are about it."

"Benny babe I think it's awkward when mum brings up 'our' sex life so casually and I think it's even worse when your parents hint at it."
"Baby you know I love you but you need to relax it's good that out parents don't mind, if you want I can ask mum and dad to not bring it up?" I sighed and he started massaging my shoulders.
"No Babe it's okay. Sorry for getting all worked up. I just get embarrassed that's all." He grabbed my hand and started leading me towards my room.
"Well try not to baby everything would be so much easier if you didn't."
"Okay Benny I will try to relax about it, take a leaf out of your book hey?" He chuckled.
"Yes something like that."

I quickly grabbed my strapless summer dress and put my black bikini's underneath and grabbed my silver thongs and headband, then I quickly grabbed my beach bag and put Benny's presents, my wallet, a jumper and my phone into it. Five minutes later I step out of my bathroom and twirled in front of Benny.
"Is this alright baby?" He smiled as he walked over to me and wrapped his arms round my waist and kissed me greedily on the lips.
"Perfect Lilly as always." I kissed him again.
"How did I get so lucky you always say the sweetest things babe." He laughed.
"I'm the one who's lucky Lilly baby."
"That debatable." He laughed again "BYE MUM! SEE YOU TOMORROW!
"BYE LILLY! BYE BENNY! HAVE A GOOD NIGHT! TRY TO NOT WEAR YOURSELVES OUT!" Benny chuckled again as he looked at my face obviously waiting for me to rant about my mum mentioning my sex life, but this time I took a breath and grabbed his hand as I walked out of the door.

We were sitting in Benny's home theater and when the ending credits came on I stretch a little and sat up. Benny and I had been sharing one of the massive recliners.
"Baby can I please give you your present now?" He laughed at my pleading and finally resigned, since I had been asking him ever since we left my house several hours ago.
"You know I can't resist you babe so that is not fair when you give me that look."
"You have been for the last few hours." I said smiling as I walked over to my bag in the corner and fished out the presents.

"Barely baby barely." I laughed and walked back over to him holding the presents out in front of me, but when I reached him he looked at them then grabbed my waist and pulled me back towards him so I was tucked into his side with my head resting on his chest and his arms wrapped around me.
"Now that we're comfortable can you please open them?" He sighed.
"Okay Lil, but you really didn't need to get me anything." I snorted.
"Sure I didn't just like you didn't need to get me that amazing dress, or twenty-eight roses, or a horse ride, or..." He cut me off with a kiss.
"Okay I get your point and I'm sure I will love them." Then he started unwrapping them. First was his favorite after shave which I noticed the other day was almost running out,.I could feel his smile as he kissed the top of my head, "Thank you so much Baby it's just what I needed I am almost out." I chuckled.

"I noticed." He laughed again, then started opening his next present, which was a leather wallet from his favorite Surf brand.
"Baby it's perfect I love this style... you know me so well." I couldn't help but laugh as he hugged me closer for a while.
"Benny you still have one more present to open."
"Okay pass it here." He opened the third and final present which was a silver and leather surf bracelet.
"Oh my gosh Lilly I love it it's amazing, it's the exact one I wanted... hey I don't remember telling you about it?" I laughed softly.
"That's because you didn't." He just smiled and shook his head. "Did you see I had it engraved," I said as he started lifting it out of the box.

"Yes, I was just about to read that baby." He chuckled, the front was engraved with Benny and on the other side it had with all my love Lilly. "Wow it's perfect I love it thank you so much." He tilted my chin up to him and kissed me lightly and hugged me close, "I love you Lilly."
"I love you too Benny and thank you for everything." then he moved me aside and got out of the chair and smiled at me as he put all the wrapping paper in the bin and his presents in my bag, I couldn't help but ask when he slipped it over his shoulder.
"Benny babe what are you doing?" He just smiled as he walked over to me and put his arms around my back and under my knees as he lifted me up.
"I'm taking you to my room to give you your presents." I laughed.

"You know I am capable of walking don't you?" He laughed but didn't put me down
"I know but I want to carry you."
"Aren't you forgetting that your room is on the third floor and we're in your 'ground floor' as you like to call it, which means that there is three flights of stairs for you to walk up? So I think you should put me down." He just laughed.
"I love holding you and I think I can make it to my room carrying you because A) you're not heavy at all. B) I have had lots of practice carrying you and C) holding you makes me feel stronger." I sighed.
"How come you always know the right things to say?" He laughed as he started walking out of the door and towards the staircase.

"I don't, I just say how I feel when it comes to you."
"Well I love that about you, you make me feel wanted."
"I'll always want you Lilly." I suppressed a dreamy sigh and kissed his neck repeatedly.
"If you don't stop that I might drop you though." I laughed.
"Sorry Benny babe."

When we finally reached Benny's room he put me gently on his bed and dropped my bag on his night stand.
"Wait right here, I'll be back in a second."
"Yes sir!" I said then we both laughed and he turned and walked into huge cupboard, then suddenly my phone rang and I leant over to grab it out of my bag.

"Hello?"
"Hey Lilly how are you?"
"Hey Josie how are you? I'm good haven't seen you for ages!"
"I know it's been crazy you know how it is work and boyfriends." We laughed.
"I certainly do so what's new?"
"Oh nothing much I'm starting Tafe next week I'm doing a business course you know see how I like it before I go to uni and study it forever." We both laughed.
"That sounds awesome good luck with it."
"Thanks... oh that reminds me I called you to tell you how awesome you looked in those photos they're amazing."
"Ummm what photo's?" She laughed.
"I'm guessing that you haven't seen today's paper?"
"Ummm no I haven't."
"Figures." She laughed. "Well you and your boyfriends family are on the front page they are calling it the party of the year." I laughed.

"You serious?"
"I surely am." We both laughed again.
"I'll make sure I check it out thanks Josie."
"That's cool I just wanted to say you look awesome and to ask if your playing soccer next year?"
"Thanks and yes I'm definitely going to be playing how about you?"
"Heck yes!" We both laughed. "So captain when are we going to start training again?"
"I was actually going to call everyone tomorrow afternoon to see who's playing and stuff then I was thinking maybe start a training session either next Saturday or Sunday afternoon what do you think?"
"That sounds like a plan."

"Oh and Josie just so I don't spring it on you in front of everyone what do you think about being vice captain?"
"Really!"
"Well yes really." I laughed softly.
"That would be awesome you sure though?"
"Of course you worked so hard last year and I know you're going to work just as hard maybe even harder this year."
"Thanks so much Lilly, but I got to go now Sean has just turned up. I'll call you back tomorrow okay?" After Johnny and Josie broke up she dated another guy for a while then that ended and I introduced her to Sean a few months later, Sean played on the main team at our soccer club, coincidentally the same team as Johnny.
"Okay sweet say hi to Sean for me and I'll talk to you tomorrow bye!"
"Bye!" I hung up the phone just as Benny started walking out of his closet and towards me.

"Baby who was..." He was interrupted by my ring tone again.
"Hold that thought."
"Hello?"
"Oh my gosh Lilly."
"Babe you looked like wow."
"Sarah she looked more than wow she looked freaking amazing."
"I have to agree with Gerry there Darl." By now Benny had come to sit behind me on the bed and he had placed the gifts on the stand and was pulling me back against him, I put the phone on speaker and put it between my legs as a he wrapped his arms around me interlocking our fingers, I was looking at our hands while I talked to the girls.
"Hey girls how are you guys? I'm guessing you're talking about the photos in the paper."
"Ahhh yer" They said in unison.
"You know I haven't actually seen them." I laughed while I played with Benny's fingers and he kissed my hair.

"You crazy girl go get the paper and check them out!" Gerry said.
"Yer they are stunning and not to mention you're super hot boyfriend on your arm damn girl no wonder you spend all your time with him he's a babe." Cara of course would say that I was trying not to laugh and I could tell Benny was also trying hard not to laugh.
"Hell yer he is so fine where can I find one like him?"
"Jema when you find out will you call me and tell me so I can sign up for one too." This time I couldn't help laughing.
"You girls are funny you know." They all laughed as well.
"But seriously Lilly we have a very serious question to ask you because we know he is a fabulous guy who is kind, caring, sweet and blah blah blah, you know all the stuff you usually say about him but what's he like without a shirt?" I laughed and Benny let go of my hands it took me a few seconds before I realized that Benny was taking his shirt off, I couldn't stop myself from turning around to face him, and then I slowly traced over the defined outline of his ripped muscles.

"Ahhh, Lilly you still there?
"Maybe she's day dreaming about her hunky boyfriend shirtless." They laughed again
"So Lilly you going to answer our question?"
"Well girls I can tell you that without a shirt on his is the hottest thing around." I lifted my gaze from his chest to his eyes and smiled when I saw the mischievous look in his eyes
"So Lilly he's not all hairy and gross then?"
"No way Sarah he is totally ripped and gorgeously tanned and I think you could see his six-pack from a mile away." Staring at him shirtless made me want to see him with nothing on. He had the most amazing body and it helped that I was totally in love with the guy.
"Oh my gosh froth."
"Babe, I'm sooo jealous again."

"Gerry and Jema please wipe the drool of your mouth." We all laughed, then Benny got up and went and locked his door and shut his light curtain which made it hard for anyone to see in but the sunlight still lit up the room, I smiled at him knowing that we both were thinking about the same thing
"Oh come on Sarah just imagine it look at the photos imagine that shirtless."
"I know he is a babe that much is obvious." They all laughed again but I was to busy watching as Benny pulled my dress off over my head and just before he could undo my bikini top I pushed him back against the headrest and slowly unzipped his pants and after I took them off I dropped them next to the bed.

"Hey girls I'm sorry but Lilly and I are a little busy right now so she's going to have to call you back later or actually make that tomorrow unless you want a description of me pants free as well." I couldn't help laughing as the girls all gasped shocked and they started laughing, luckily Benny knew my best friends well enough to know that they wouldn't be offended or overly embarrassed by what he said-
"I think we can skip that description thanks for offering though Benny." Cara could hardly stop laughing.
"You two have fun we will wait till next time we hang out with Lilly for that description though thanks Benny." Sarah ended up laughing as well.
"Yer Benny it's not as much fun getting a description if you're right there with her... Although I have a feeling it would be a highly accurate one." Jema giggled along with the other two girls.

"Benny I'm sorry but I think we will wait until we get your girlfriend alone, it's more fun that way and also she won't be distracted."
"Thanks Gerry but you would be distracted to if you amazing boyfriend was on the bed with you showing off his sexy body and also he has been sooo cute today."
"Girl stop rubbing it in that your boyfriends a babe we already know that."
"Girl now you're teasing that you got a sexy man naked on your bed."
"Hold on why is he being cute today?"
"Jema, I'm not trying to rub it in... much, Sarah I never said it was my bed and we're not naked..."
"Yet." Benny added laughingly. "But if you girls don't hang up soon we will be and then I can tell you Lilly will be totally distracted." I slapped his arm and the girls giggled on the other end of the line.

"Oh and Cara he's being super cute today because it is our two-year anniversary." I smiled at Benny who was rubbing his arm in mock pain.
"Ahhh," they all chorused.
"Well girls I gotta go my little slap hurt Benny.
"Now she is going to have to kiss it better for me." Benny said in his little kid voice which made the girls laugh.
"Okay Darl have fun and Benny get over it you big baby." He laughed.
"Bye Cara." I said.
"Bye Cara thanks for being so kind to me." Said Benny and she laughed.
"Bye Benny, bye Lilly have fun with super hot naked boyfriend.
"Jema he's not naked."
"Yet, Lilly and I at least have the decency to wait till you guys are off the phone to start having hot....." I slapped him again which made the girls laugh. "Oww babe."

"Benny shut-up or we won't be doing anything." The girls laughed again and Benny leaned in and gave me a big loud kiss so he was sure the girls heard.
"I'm sorry baby you know I love you." I kissed him back.
"Yer and you're lucky I love you so much or else you would be in big trouble." Everyone laughed. "Bye, Jema."
"Bye Jema and thanks for getting me in trouble.
"Anytime Benny see you."
"Bye Lilly we'll catch up soon okay? Bye Benny and I would listen to your girlfriend if I were you. She is one strict ringmaster."
"Yes she can be but she is definitely a sexy ringmaster." I raised an eyebrow at him. "She also the kindest, most caring, amazing and beautiful ringmaster around." The girl let out a collective aww.

"Bye Gerry I promise we will catch up real soon okay!"
"Bye Lilly and Benny, you two have a good anniversary and try not to wear each other out too much and Lilly Darl we expected a full recap next time we all catch up." I groaned as the rest of the girls agreed with her, Benny just laughed.
"Well I had better make sure that the rest of the day goes perfectly so she has something good to tell you'll then." The girls laughed.
"Baby today has been perfect you don't need to do anything else."
"You're not getting out of it that easily... bye girls."
"Bye Benny." They said in unison.
"Bye girls I will call you tomorrow to chat sorry to bail on you girls."
"Darl anyone of us would do the same if we were in bed with our super hot boyfriend." we all laughed.
"Talk to you tomorrow."
"Bye," the chorused again then I hung up the phone and put it back on the night stand and Benny and I picked up where we left off.

"Babe you know I would love nothing more than to lie here with you all afternoon but we can't. I have something else planned remember?" He kissed me on the top of my head and started to move, but I hugged his chest tighter which made him laugh softly.
"Benny can we just lie here for five more minutes please?" He laughed again.
"How about a compromise?" I sighed.
"Fine what is the compromise?"
"You open your presents while we're lying here."
"Fine but only because I love you." He laughed and reached over to the night stand
"I love you to that is why I bought you these." I groaned.

"You know that's not fair, you know I feel bad when you buy me things but when you say things like that it makes me feel bad for complaining about feeling bad, which makes me feel double bad and then I start feeling bad because I sound ungrateful which is really bad."
"Lil sweetie you know that if I didn't know you so well none of that would make sense and you also said bad a lot." We both laughed then he handed his presents to me and said "Remember what I said yesterday, don't feel bad I love you and you love me which means it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks so relax." I sighed and reached for the first present.

"Okay babe I am relaxed." I started opening the first present and when I pulled the wrapping paper off I saw it was something from the jewelry shop. I held my breath when I lifted the lid. Once I saw what was inside I couldn't help but gasp, he had bought me the beautiful sapphire necklace we looked at yesterday. "Benny it is amazing it is so beautiful I can't believe you got it for me.... Thank you so much baby I love it." I quickly turned around and hugged him fiercely and gave him a long kiss on the lips.
"I'm glad you like it sweetheart but I think you should open you next present and give me a chance to relax otherwise I might 'accidentally' forget our plans tonight." It was only then that I realized we were both still naked and the way I had been kissing him would not have helped his 'situation' I laughed and rolled over so I was next to him.

"Sorry I got a little carried away." He laughed with me this time.
"You know I don't mind Lil baby it's just that I want everything to be perfect today."
"It has been and it will be because as long as I'm with you everything's perfect." He kissed me softly on my forehead.
"I know how you feel Lilly because it's the same when I am with you." I smiled and reached for my other present.
"Okay here we go I'm opening it." He chuckled.
"Yes you are aren't you." He said it in a mocking tone as he ruffled my hair.
"Benny now it is going to look like I have bed hair." I said as I slapped him we both laughed then I started opening my present when I took off the wrapping paper and saw another box from the jewelry store. I couldn't help but look at Benny who looked back at me with an eager expression on his face. I quickly turned back to the box and opened it. Inside was a beautiful sapphire ring that matched the necklace it was absolutely stunning; to say it took my breath away would be an understatement.

"Lilly do you like it?" I turned back to him he looked at me anxiously. "I mean if you don't like it we can take it back..." I put my finger against his lips to silence him then I looked down at the ring and back to him
"Benny I absolutely love it, it is amazingly perfect and I can't believe it's mine."
"You sure you're not just saying that darling." I rolled my eyes at him.
"You know me well enough to know if I was lying.... I love this ring and the necklace they are perfect it is almost as if you deigned them just for me." He sighed with relief.
"I'm glad you like them babe."
"I love them thank you so much." I kissed him lightly. "You think you could put the necklace on for me?"
"Sure Lil." Once it was on I couldn't help but run over to his mirror it looked amazing.
"Thank you sooo much I love it, it's stunning they are all amazing." He laughed and walked over to me.

"I'm glad you love them sweetheart, but you better get dressed, I have one last surprise for you." I groaned which made Benny chuckle as he hugged me from behind. I leant on him and he lightly massaged my shoulders. "Lil sweetie you know I do it because I love you right?" I sighed and faced him.
"Yer I know baby."
"Then what's the problem?" I laughed slightly.
"The problem is that you are so good to me and you always are buying me things and everything and I feel like I don't deserve you. I never do things like this for you or buy you heaps of things." He laughed and turned me to face him.
"Well you do so much more for me then you think you do and I don't need heaps of presents if you love me, I am happy to have you which is way more than I deserve anyway and I buy you things because they make you happy." I hugged him close.

"Being with you makes me happy and you deserve way better than me but luckily for me you are blind and think I am good enough." He held me at arm's length and stared into my eyes.
"I am not blind and I don't like you talking about yourself that way so how about we say we deserve each other and buying gifts for each is allowed." I laughed and he pulled me back into his arms again.
"Fine but no more for a while okay?" I felt his chest rumble as he laughed.
"Okay deal, but right now you need to go get ready!" I laughed and stepped out of his arms and towards the bathroom.

Our evening was perfect. Benny drove us down to the beach and we watched the sunset as we walked along the beach, then we had fish and chips for dinner. After dinner we came back to his house and watched a movie in his home theater then we headed up to his room.
"Baby I totally forgot I am going fishing with the boy's tomorrow afternoon... I can cancel if you want me to." I laughed and snuggled deeper into his chest.
"No you go fishing tomorrow and have a good time, this weekend has been wonderful thank you again." He tightened his arms around me.
"I'm glad you had fun, you sure you don't mind after all I promised that this weekend would be about us."
"It's fine. I have been meaning to get around to cleaning out my wardrobe anyway, so I can do that tomorrow while you're fishing." I felt him smile as he kissed the top of my head.
"Okay then I will drop you home after lunch tomorrow." I nodded and started drifting off to sleep.

Benny had dropped me home a couple of hours ago and I was in the process of cleaning out my closet. My hand touched something small and rectangular at the back of my closet. When I pulled it out I saw it was my old sim card the one I had used when I was dating Johnny.
