the cost is too high not to love

the cost is too high not to love by ssaarah on Polyvore

I heard footsteps basically running into the room when I came home from work, grinning as I saw my girl looking back at me appreciatively.

"Hi my love." She grinned, wrapping her arms around my neck and pressing her whole body against mine. Damn when she acted like this with me I felt like the luckiest man on earth. Who wouldn’t want to come home to Julia looking so happy? It was infectious. But then again I wasn’t really sure why she was home already…

"Hey. What are you doing here?" she shrugged in an easy way that proved how relaxed she was.

"I took half day off." I moved my hands to her waist and pulled her closer since she’d stepped away and I liked being able to touch her.

"Again?" I asked carefully. I was glad she was taking time to herself, and for me but I didn’t want her to get in trouble. Julia nuzzled into my neck and breathed deeply before speaking.

"You said I needed a break, I'm taking plenty baby."

"Didn't it feel alone here, without me?" I teased, hugging her close when she kissed my cheek.

"You have no idea." She said with a pout. "But I kept myself busy."

"Uh, sounds naughty." I grinned, getting hard just at the thought of my girlfriend at home missing me and taking matters into her own hand.

"No instead, I got my period." And fantasy ruined.

"Oh baby." I said softly, trying not to reveal my disappointment since I knew she was suffering more than me and I hated when she hurt. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm good." She reassured, her hands moving down my torso and teasing me just a little. "I want to show you something."

"Should I be worried?" I teased, but let her take my hand and lead me to our bedroom anyway.

There, on one of the white immaculate walls, was a large stripe of pale bluish taupe and then a light grey next to it.

"What do you think?" she asked quietly, sounding nervous.

“You want to paint by yourself?” I asked with a smirk knowing the mess that would cause.

“No.” she pouted and looked around. “Just the bedroom.” She gave me a slow smile before looking back at the room and god she was so damn beautiful it made my heart ache.

“I like the blue.” I said though I hadn’t taken my eyes off of her. She nodded.

“I thought you might.” She turned to smile and caught me staring at her.

“What?” she blinked and tilted her head as she reached up to cup my face. “Are you okay?”

“I'm cursing your damn cycle right now.” I admitted, shaking my head as I looked down at her. She widened her eyes.

“What?” she was obviously still stuck on the colors of the bedroom and rearranging and while I was excited for something new, seeing how happy she was to be with me again and how cute she was being all housewifey? I wanted to tie her to my bed and make love to her until neither of us could move anymore. As my thoughts swirled she seemed to recognize something in my eyes and gave me a slow sexy smirk that no woman could compare to. It was only Julia. She was made for me. Perfect for me. “Oh….” She bit her lip. “Sorry.” She even blushed a little at the heated look I was giving her. I laughed.

“It’s not your fault baby.” I wrapped her in my arms and had her straddling me as I sat on the edge of the bed, which in hindsight probably wouldn’t help my erection, but I wanted to be close to her.

 

“I can still take care of you….” She trailed off, a naughty look in her eyes as she slid off of me to kneel on the ground in front of the bed. And me. I shook my head, pulling her back up as I groaned.

 

“Hell no.” I said seriously. “I might be horny but I'm not selfish.” I kissed her lips, then realized how addicting they were and kissed her again. “I like the blue.” I whispered against her lips. “But you could have painted it with pink and gold sequins and I wouldn’t care as long as you were in bed with me.

"You'd change your mind when I'd become old fat and ugly." She joked but then tensed as if she was going to scare me away or something. She couldn’t do that again. She was stuck with me and I planned on proving that to her every day.

"Oh yeah because I'd stop look and you and stare at the walls only." I joked back, feeling her relax again.

"Exactly." she nodded as she slid her hands down my arms, "While you'll still be sexy and desirable."

"Let's make a deal, if that will happen, and I'm sure it won't but you're being silly so I'll make this deal anyway, I'll do all I can to be just as fat and ugly as you." Julia tossed her head back and laughed, a real silly laugh that made my heart ache for how much I just loved her.

"Deal baby." she said before kissing me again. "I'll start painting tomorrow. I want to be done by the beginning of the weekend."

"You have all the time baby, I don't want you to stress or get too tired." I smiled, running my hands through her hair to cup her head softly.

"Plus, I'll be helping you."

"Half naked I hope." She bit down on her lip and pushed my jacket off slowly.

"Don't you think I'll be too distracting?" I asked as her hands started unbuttoning my white dress shirt and her eyes moved down my body.

"That's the point." She grinned at me and pulled away regretfully, getting up to reach for one of my t-shirts. It was making me smirk since I knew she preferred me without instead but apparently it was teasing her too much to see so much of me. I loved that. “Will you be able to get some time off from work?" I nodded as I got up and took my pants off, putting away my dirty clothes before peeking a look at my girlfriend who was indeed checking me out without shame.

"I will. I already took the weekend off anyway since you said there was that party in the hamptons."

“Thanks baby I love you." She beamed at me and hugged me tight.

"I'm coming just to see you in a sexy dress at night and in a bikini the rest of time." I was honestly only half joking about that….

"You will." She grinned…."When will you quit your job?"

“When I get a new one?” I smirked, kissing her cheek. She bit her lip.

“Oh.” I blinked back at her and then narrowed my eyes.

“Baby…” I trailed off. “We promised this time to be honest. Say what you’re thinking.”

“I'm worried you won’t change because you’re scared.” She admitted, making a guilty face. I licked my lips.

“I am scared. But it’s because I don’t really know what I want, it’s hard to change.” She nodded.

 

“I know.” I reached for her and pulled her into my body, cupping her face.

“I wonder what it would have been like to be you and always know what you wanted to do.” She grinned.

“You didn’t want to be anything when you were a kid?” I shrugged.

“A fireman.” I replied, smirking as she bit her lip.

“You can be that for me….” She trailed off slowly and I chuckled.

“Deal…..but I'm not sure if it’s legal for you to pay me for that.” She grinned and ran her hands through my hair before ending around my neck.

“Maybe not.” I took a deep breath.

“I had an interview. With a sports agency. It’d be very similar to what I do now except with athlete’s instead of models.” Jules widened her eyes.

“Trey you’d be so good at that.” She replied seriously. I had to admit, the idea excited me, even though it was a change, it wasn’t that big of one, and I already knew a lot about it.

“I don’t know, it’s a similar job, but it’s also really different, I’d have to do a lot of training, and I don’t even know if I’ll get it anyways.”

"But you'd love it, right?"  I shrugged, pretending it was no big deal when instead it sounded like my dream job.

 "I guess so. It'd be a nice change."

"I'm sure you'll get it. You're amazing, they'd be crazy to lose the chance to have you."

"You're biased." I smirked, giving her a quick kiss to hopefully change the subject since it made me super nervous.

"I know you and how passionate you get with what you love and sports? It's definitely something you love." She pointed out.

"We'll see how it goes."

"Hey mister, I'm not done talking with you about your future." She tried to keep a straight face and I grinned, she was trying even though she knew it made me feel uncomfortable. "I say you quit your job anyway."

"No." I said stubbornly and shook my head.

"Why? You hate it and I'm sure you'll get a better one in matter of days." She protested, though it wouldn’t matter because that wasn’t happening. "And we don't need money. We have plenty and I make enough for two." I laughed.

“Yeah because I'd love to live with your money, right? Then what? You'd start wearing my pants too?" She grinned and I felt my chest hurt since even when I was being an ass she was sweet.

"No baby, they look good on you and on you only."

“I don’t hate it enough that I’d have to quit before I find something else baby. Don’t worry about me.” She pouted and I leaned down to kiss her lips. “What do you want for dinner?” I asked, letting her know I didn’t want to talk about it anymore. 

 

“Thai.” She replied with a smile as she leaned into my body. 

 

“Deal.” I grabbed the menu off the fridge and dialed, ordering all our favorites while she straightened up the living room. God I could watch her do anything. If there was a job that let me just look at her all day I’d take it in a second. “Sorry what?” I asked the guy on the phone, having totally dazed off. 

 

“$24.95, be there in 15 minutes.” He said sharply before disconnecting. I walked back to Jules and made her stop tidying, grabbing her waist and pulling her into me on the couch, holding her body close. 

 

“Mmmm.” She set her head against my chest and her hand splayed against my stomach. “You’re so warm Trey.” I grinned and reached down to kiss her forehead.

 

“What should we do tonight?” she shrugged.

 

“I like doing this.”

 

“We’re the same then.” I told her, pulling her harder into me. “But you don’t want to go out?” she looked up at me.

 

“You don’t have to go out with me every night to make me happy Trey.” She said seriously, worry etched in her pretty eyes. 

 

“I know I don’t but I love to make you happy.” I meant it to. I spent too much time resenting her and worrying about myself to remember that when I made her happy? I was happy too. “Plus I like going out with you.” I added, worried our break up had made her think otherwise. I loved to be out with my girl, to show her off, to get her all dressed up and have fun together. What I didn’t like was being ignored but I knew now she never really meant to do that either.

"I do too."

"Is it a yes then?" I asked as I tucked her hair behind her ear gently, staring into her pretty eyes but she shook her head.

“No baby. I want to stay home. You asking is enough for me, we can go out another night, but now? Nothing sounds better than you and I cuddled on the couch."

"Sure?" I asked and she nodded, "Okay baby, anything you want.” She grinned as she looked down at my body.

"Get something on, you're too tempting." I laughed at that and pat her ass before heading to our bedroom,

"This is what you get for having a hot boyfriend." I teased from the other room in a silly voice. I slipped into some sweats and walked back to the kitchen.

"Beer?"

“You just keep getting sexier.” I grinned, taking the bottle and moving my hand to the small over her back to pull her into me so I could kiss her hard.

“Stop teasing me Trey.” She pouted against my lips and I felt my body get frustrated all over again.

“Haven’t people figured out a way to get rid periods yet?!” Julia laughed.

“Yes. Knock me up.” I rose a brow at her and cringed.

“And deal with the hormones for nine months straight? No thanks.” She smacked my chest hard.

“Hey!!!” I scooped her up into my arms, setting her on the couch and kissing her forehead.

“I'm kidding. You’re not that bad.” I kissed her lips again and she grinned.

“I can be bad sometimes.” She winced but all I heard was the naughty meaning and groaned.

“Now who’s being a tease?” I asked, leaning in and biting her neck gently before kissing it. “Do you want to watch a movie?”

"Sure." I kissed her forehead and squeezed her against me. "You pick.” I took a swig of my beer.

"A porn?"  I choked and coughed, widening my eyes at her, "Jules!"

"What?!” Jules cheeks went pink and I smirked.

"I didn't know you were so naughty." I said, reaching up to cup her perfect breast and squeeze it.

"You did instead." She snapped, slapping my hand away.

"True." I nodded and leaned my head against the back of the couch, still looking at her with a slight smile.  “So porn?"

"We'd only get more frustrated." she sighed as she pouted, making me chuckle and kiss her again. Just being with her made me frustrated.  

"What about Harry Potter."

"God not again." I groaned and rolled my eyes.

"I was teasing you love." She said and turned towards me. "I got you a new shirt today." I finished my beer and set it aside.

"Why?"

"You needed a new one for the party. Actually no, you didn't, but I thought it would look great on you so I bought it. And you're welcome."

“I feel so spoiled I didn’t get you anything.” I smirked at her and she bit her lip.

“I got me something too.” I rose a brow.

“Oh?” she nodded and leaned her body into mine.

“I needed a dress didn’t I?”

“Will it match my shirt?” I teased and she made a face.

“Yes Trey, we’ll be the matching lovers in the Hamptons.” She shivered. “Eww. I can’t even say that without dying a little.” I burst out laughing and leaned in to kiss her nose.

‘You’re too cute.” She wrinkled it. “So what does it look like?” Jules shook her head.

“No! It’s a surprise I can’t tell you.”

“Give me a hint.” She tapped her finger against her mouth as she thought.

“Okay…..It doesn’t match your shirt.” She grinned at her silly joke and I rolled my eyes.

“That tells me nothing because I haven’t even seen my shirt.” She shrugged.

“That’s not my fault.” I narrowed my eyes on her and she grinned. “Fine. One hint. It’s blue.”

“My favorite.” I replied, pushing her hair behind her ear. “You look amazing in everything and you’ll wear nothing by the end of the night  so it doesn’t really matter anyways.” I grinned and pulled her into my lap to lean into her ear, holding her hips gently.

“Oh?” she asked, her scent seriously distracting me.

“You remember our place in the Hamptons baby?” she nodded.

“We go every summer Trey I'm not that forgetful.” I chuckled as I nuzzled her neck before speaking into it softly.

“You know the spiral staircase that leads up to the round tower that has all the floor to ceiling windows that overlook the water?” she nodded.

‘Mhmm….” She trailed off, waiting for where I was going.

“I'm going to strip off that blue dress on the stairs, then your bra…then your panties…so you’re naked when we get to that room.” Jules shivered in my hold and swallowed before she spoke.

“What about my shoes?” I shook my head.

“No your shoes stay on. They’ll stay on the entire time I make love to you up against that window, over and over again.”

“Trey….” She whispered and I pressed soft kisses against her neck before pulling back and grabbing the remote.

“So Harry Potter right? Which one are we on?”

“You're kidding me right." I shrugged, acting like it was normal to change the subject even though I was still uncomfortably hard.

"I'm not a big fan but you like it, so..." she shook her head, readjusting herself away from me.

"Not what I meant." She said dryly the frustration obvious on her face.  

"What then? And what's with the distance now?" I asked reaching for her again, not liking to be so far away, but she shoved my hand away, making me pout at her.

"I think we should get a house in the mountains." I just blinked at her, wondering where the hell that had come from. Not that it didn’t sound nice.

"Where is this coming from?"

"You know I love skiing." She shrugged and I just stared at her for a few more moments, wondering if she was feeling weird about us again.

"I'm confused."

"I think it's like when you're talking about having your girlfriend on the staircase and then you bring up harry potter." She said with a wide grin  and I finally understood her meaning behind the conversation, making me laugh.

"Oh. I got it now. Sorry baby, I didn't want to get too frustrated since I'm not getting any tonight." I replied, pulling her back into my arms tight.

"A girl can always dream."

"About harry potter?" I asked in a playful tone, holding her in my arms and loving every second. "Or about a new house?"

"About you." She smiled, tilting her head up to kiss me.

"I'm real baby." I smirked against her mouth, "And I meant what I said, us on the stairs is going to happen."

"Thank god." she whispered, resting against her chest. "I'd hate waking up without you."I heard footsteps basically running into the room when I came home from work, grinning as I saw my girl looking back at me appreciatively.

"Hi my love." She grinned, wrapping her arms around my neck and pressing her whole body against mine. Damn when she acted like this with me I felt like the luckiest man on earth. Who wouldn’t want to come home to Julia looking so happy? It was infectious. But then again I wasn’t really sure why she was home already…

"Hey. What are you doing here?" she shrugged in an easy way that proved how relaxed she was.

"I took half day off." I moved my hands to her waist and pulled her closer since she’d stepped away and I liked being able to touch her.

“I'm cursing your damn cycle right now.” I admitted, shaking my head as I looked down at her. She widened her eyes.

“What?” she was obviously still stuck on the colors of the bedroom and rearranging and while I was excited for something new, seeing how happy she was to be with me again and how cute she was being all housewifey? I wanted to tie her to my bed and make love to her until neither of us could move anymore. As my thoughts swirled she seemed to recognize something in my eyes and gave me a slow sexy smirk that no woman could compare to. It was only Julia. She was made for me.

“Hell no.” I said seriously. “I might be horny but I'm not selfish.” I kissed her lips, then realized how addicting they were and kissed her again. “I like the blue.” I whispered against her lips. “But you could have painted it with pink and gold sequins and I wouldn’t care as long as you were in bed with me.

"You'd change your mind when I'd become old fat and ugly." She joked but then tensed as if she was going to scare me away or something. She couldn’t do that again. She was stuck with me and I planned on proving that to her every day.

"You have all the time baby, I don't want you to stress or get too tired." I smiled, running my hands through her hair to cup her head softly.

“Thanks baby I love you." She beamed at me and hugged me tight.

"I'm coming just to see you in a sexy dress at night and in a bikini the rest of time." I was honestly only half joking about that….

"You will." She grinned…."When will you quit your job?"

“When I get a new one?” I smirked, kissing her cheek. She bit her lip.

“Oh.” I blinked back at her and then narrowed my eyes.

“Baby…” I trailed off. “We promised this time to be honest. Say what you’re thinking.”

“I'm worried you won’t change because you’re scared.” She admitted, making a guilty face. I licked my lips.

“I am scared. But it’s because I don’t really know what I want, it’s hard to change.” She nodded.

 

“I know.” I reached for her and pulled her into my body, cupping her face.

“I wonder what it would have been like to be you and always know what you wanted to do.” She grinned.

“You didn’t want to be anything when you were a kid?” I shrugged.

“A fireman.” I replied, smirking as she bit her lip.

“You can be that for me….” She trailed off slowly and I chuckled.

“Deal…..but I'm not sure if it’s legal for you to pay me for that.” She grinned and ran her hands through my hair before ending around my neck.

“Maybe not.” I took a deep breath.

“I had an interview. With a sports agency. It’d be very similar to what I do now except with athlete’s instead of models.” Jules widened her eyes.

“Trey you’d be so good at that.” She replied seriously. I had to admit, the idea excited me, even though it was a change, it wasn’t that big of one, and I already knew a lot about it.

“I needed a dress didn’t I?”

“Will it match my shirt?” I teased and she made a face.

“Yes Trey, we’ll be the matching lovers in the Hamptons.” She shivered. “Eww. I can’t even say that without dying a little.” I burst out laughing and leaned in to kiss her nose.

‘You’re too cute.” She wrinkled it. “So what does it look like?” Jules shook her head.

“No! It’s a surprise I can’t tell you.”

“Give me a hint.” She tapped her finger against her mouth as she thought.

“Okay…..It doesn’t match your shirt.” She grinned at her silly joke and I rolled my eyes.

“That tells me nothing because I haven’t even seen my shirt.” She shrugged.

“That’s not my fault.” I narrowed my eyes on her and she grinned. “Fine. One hint. It’s blue.”

“My favorite.” I replied, pushing her hair behind her ear. “You look amazing in everything and you’ll wear nothing by the end of the night  so it doesn’t really matter anyways.” I grinned and pulled her into my lap to lean into her ear, holding her hips gently.

“Oh?” she asked, her scent seriously distracting me.

“You remember our place in the Hamptons baby?” she nodded.

“We go every summer Trey I'm not that forgetful.” I chuckled as I nuzzled her neck before speaking into it softly.

“You know the spiral staircase that leads up to the round tower that has all the floor to ceiling windows that overlook the water?” she nodded.

‘Mhmm….” She trailed off, waiting for where I was going.

“I'm going to strip off that blue dress on the stairs, then your bra…then your panties…so you’re naked when we get to that room.” Jules shivered in my hold and swallowed before she spoke.

“What about my shoes?” I shook my head.

“No your shoes stay on. They’ll stay on the entire time I make love to you up against that window, over and over again.”

“Trey….” She whispered and I pressed soft kisses against her neck before pulling back and grabbing the remote.

“So Harry Potter right? Which one are we on?”

“You're kidding me right." I shrugged, acting like it was normal to change the subject even though I was still uncomfortably hard.

"I'm not a big fan but you like it, so..." she shook her head, readjusting herself away from me.

"Not what I meant." She said dryly the frustration obvious on her face.  

"What then? And what's with the distance now?" I asked reaching for her again, not liking to be so far away, but she shoved my hand away, making me pout at her.

"I think we should get a house in the mountains." I just blinked at her, wondering where the hell that had come from. Not that it didn’t sound nice.

"Where is this coming from?"

"You know I love skiing." She shrugged and I just stared at her for a few more moments, wondering if she was feeling weird about us again.

"I'm confused."

"I think it's like when you're talking about having your girlfriend on the staircase and then you bring up harry potter." She said with a wide grin  and I finally understood her meaning behind the conversation, making me laugh.

"Oh. I got it now. Sorry baby, I didn't want to get too frustrated since I'm not getting any tonight." I replied, pulling her back into my arms tight.

"A girl can always dream."

"About harry potter?" I asked in a playful tone, holding her in my arms and loving every second. "Or about a new house?"

"About you." She smiled, tilting her head up to kiss me.

"I'm real baby." I smirked against her mouth, "And I meant what I said, us on the stairs is going to happen."

"Thank god." she whispered, resting against her chest. "I'd hate waking up without you."
