[STORY] MARRIED TO MR RIGHT(MMR) (Episode 16)

Episode 16.

“Cheers”
We all echoed at the same time round the dinner table.
We were having dinner at Alex and Jake’s garden tonight. They decided to give us our victory meal even when we tried to oppose the idea.
Actually, we were having the meal together.

They were almost like family now. we even decided that both families would be having dinner together from now on.
I helped Alex prepare the meal and damn, she is such a great cook. I overheard Jake saying that she once attended a chef programme in LA before they got married so it’s pretty obvious that she’ll be this good.
“To Brian and Ciara for winning the piggy race” Jake said causing us to laugh as, we clinked our glasses together.
“Damn. you guys were pretty good today. like a, pro” Alex said giving Jake a soothing massage on his shoulders with her hands.
“Yeah. we make a pretty good team” Brian said I smiled sheepishly
Jake poured more wine into our glasses. I was about to take a sip when Brian stopped me, grabbing it from my hands.
“What’s wrong” I ask

“No alcohol remember? have you forgotten what happened the last time?” He said staring intently at me.
“What happened last time” Alex asked tilting her head to one side as she tucked her hair behind her ears “Did you get drunk Ciara?” she asked waiting for an answer.
“Worse” Brian said as he narrated the entire ordeal to both of them. They ended up giggling.
“Wow who knew Ciara could be such a super woman” Jake teased
“Yeah yeah laugh it out. pretend I’m not even here” I say raising both hands in the air
“We’re only Messing with you. don’t take it too personal” Alex said nudging my elbow and I let out a low laugh.
“Yeah I know”
“but please let her off the hook for today Brian. I mean you’re here to help her if she gets out of control right” Jake said
“And what if we both get wasted?” Brian asked a logical question
“you’re man and wife so I’m sure you’ll both be able to handle it” Jake said putting a forkful of chicken into Alex’s mouth.
She kissed him in return.
So nice!
“It’s really nice to be here with all of you. today was a good day” Jake said and we shrugged.
“I guess it was” Brian said and we both took a sip.
God! this is such a good wine. I’ve never tasted anything like this in my entire life.
It’s made of natural grapes but tastes so divine.
I couldn’t help it so I kept on having more and so did everyone. The next thing I knew was that I started acting all silly and laughing at the silliest things whether funny or not.
I knew I was drunk but I didn’t want to admit it.
“What’s the time Jake?” I overheard Brian asking Jake who looks completely wasted.
I didn’t hear the rest of the conversation but the next thing I heard was “I better take Ciara home. she’s not feeling too good”.

I felt Brian hands holding me tight. He pulled me up and carried me in his arms inside the house. He closed the door once we were in.
” Brian let’s drink some more ” I tell him but he looks at me in disbelief. I knew he was drunk too.
“No Ciara. let’s go to bed.”
“But I want to have a talk and with my husband over some bottles please” I begged leading him to the couch.
We sat down and I poured some wine into the glass.
“Ciara you have to stop. you can’t control yourself if you keep on drinking like this” he warns but I only smile.
“Then maybe you should try to control me don’t you think?” I asked biting my lower lip seductively.
“Brian. do you think I’m pretty?” I ask. What was I even thinking now.
“Yeah a lot”
“And if you don’t love me then why’d you get married to me?” I said in almost a whisper
“I wanted to make you pay for what you did to me. you humiliated me Ciara. I had to get back at you somehow” he explains
“By marrying me?”
“you insulted my parents and made me look like a fool”
“Yeah” I giggled “I can’t believe I did it for people who never considered me part of their family.” I sighed.
“What are you trying to say?”
“I found out that I wasn’t their daughter. I did everything for them. including getting married to save their sorry asses. I worked my butt off to provide for them only to be tossed away like trash one day” I say as a tear slide down my cheek “It was painful. to realize that I was only being used. that I never had a right to call them my parents.” I wiped my tears with the back of my palm.
He wrapped his hand around my waist pulling me close to him.
I loved the warmth of his skin. everything felt so right.
“I’m sorry”
I heard Brian say.
“For what?” I ask clueless of what he was apologizing for.
“For everything you went through Ciara.”
“I know I’m not supposed to but I miss them. Believe it or not but they raised me. I owe them that much” I say resting on his shoulder.
“Don’t think about it too much. so you can let go later” he whispered to my ears.
it felt like a soothing massage to my skin.
I nod and he kissed my hair.
I raised my head to look at him. He gave me an intense look.
I was already feeling shy all of a sudden.
I mean he just kissed me.
This honeymoon is doing things to the both of us.
“Get up Ciara. let’s go to bed.” he ordered but in a low voice.
I got up from the couch, holding onto my head.
I was beginning to feel the wrath of the alcohol.
He pulled me closer to him and tried to take me to our bedroom.
He opened the door and led me inside.
The room was dim except from the light that shone from the lamp on the desk making it a possible for us to go all the way in.

He gently laid me on the bed. Took off my heels and my jewelry, then placed it on the desk.
“What is happening to me?” I ask no one in particular
he only smiles “you’ll be fine. you’re not used to alcohol that’s why I never wanted you to have some in the first place”
He reached for my blouse and unbuttoned it taking it off and throwing it on the floor.
It was his habit alright. he reached for my skirt and pulled it down my legs.
I had no time to feel self conscious so I didn’t put a fight with him.
He covered the blankets and then turned to join me on the bed.
My eyes were feeling heavy and I really wanted to sleep.
“Brian” I muttered
“Yes. what is it?”
“Come closer” I whispered hitting the spot I wanted him to sleep lightly.
He smiled “No”
“No?” I gave him a quizzical look “Why no?” I ask not sure why I did.

I was under the influence of alcohol so don’t blame me for this.
“You’re drunk Ciara so you don’t expect me to sleep next to you and plus, the Ciara I know would strangle me to death the next morning if she found me that close to her.” he explained
“You don’t like me do you?”
“I’m not answering that. just fall asleep already” he tells me but I stood up and walked to the direction of the bathroom. I wasn’t aware that I was just in my bra and panties.
I got to the bathroom and started making Puking sounds.
Just then, I felt a hand on my hair pulling it up, and the other rubbing my back softly.
It was Brian, no doubt.
When I was done, I washed my face stood up.
He carried me and walked back to the bedroom then placed me on the bed.
He joined me and I closed my eyes to sleep but it wasn’t possible so I just shut my eyes.
I pushed forward and placed my head on Brian’s chest.
He responded by pulling me closer to him and placing his hand on my Hips.
I loved his scent.
He turned his head to look at me. I felt his hand on my lips and the next thing I knew, he leaned forward and kissed me on my lips before closing his eyes and drifting to sleep.
