Jaxson by K. Renee Page A

grab her hand and pull her the rest of the way to me. I wrap my hand around the back of her neck and pull her to me.  
    She watches my mouth and I know I’m teasing her again. When our lips finally touch, she drops the phone and lets out a breathy moan. God, this girl does shit to me that I never thought was possible.  
    She gasps and pulls away from me, grabbing the phone and saying sorry to someone. “Oh, my God. I am so sorry, Amie. I was a little distracted and dropped the phone.” She gives me a dirty look and I just grin back at her.  
    I hear her friend’s response through the phone and I smirk. “Are you with someone?” She has this high pitched voice that I don’t even know how Lyndley can keep it next to her ear. “You are, aren’t you? Were you guys just fucking like animals?”  
    I pull the phone away from Lynnie and yell out, “Yes, we were!” She stares at me with her mouth wide open and I see her frazzled expression. Her friend is yelling over the line, but it’s hard to make out what she’s saying. Lynd smacks my shoulder and takes her panties and phone from me. She hits a button on her phone and I’m pretty sure she just hung up on her friend.  
    She mouths out an asshole , and I mouth back, I love you . She looks almost ready to panic and I can’t help but watch her. She blushes and starts to look for her bra that I put on the floor last night. She bends over to pick up her bra so I walk over to her and wrap my arms around her waist and lean in to whisper, “I love you, Lynd. Always.”
    She surprises me when she turns in my arms and looks into my eyes. “I love you too. I never stopped.”
    My heart warms at her statement and I fall even more in love with her. She makes me happier than I’ve ever been, I don’t know what I would have done if she never came back to Texas. Maybe I would have gone to find her again, but who knows. I probably wouldn’t have been able to find her.  
    Her phone beeps, but she doesn’t even bother looking at it. Instead, she wraps her arms around my neck and places kisses all over my face while telling me that she loves me.  
    The doorbell rings at a shitty time and she freezes in my arms. She looks panicked and I want to know why. No one is going to hurt her while she’s with me. “Hold that thought.” I kiss her quickly and pull on the pair of jeans that I discarded on the floor. Making my way out of the room and down stairs, I open the front door and see Mike standing there.  
    “Hey Jaxson. I got the information you were asking me to get you.” I lead him towards the kitchen as I look over the paperwork. “Jax, are you really sure you want to do this? I mean, it’s gonna cost a fucking arm and a leg to bring her here.”  
    “Hell yes, I’m sure. I want my daughter to be buried in the same plot as the rest of her family. She deserves to be here with the people who love her most,” I hear her even though I’m sure she was trying to stay quiet. Motioning for her to come to me, I introduce her to Mike.  
    “Mike, this is Lyndley. This was our daughter.”  
    “Hello, Lyndley. So nice to meet you. I’m sorry to hear about your loss.”  
    I watch them shake hands and then Lynd looks over at me. “Mike is helping me get everything together so we can bring our little girl home.” I promised her that I would bring her home, and judging by the look on her face, she didn’t expect me to follow through on it. She has tears falling down her face and I pull her to me. Wrapping her up in my arms, I’m the happiest I’ve ever been. I’ll have our little girl in Texas with us and I get a second chance with Lynnie.  
    “Jax, I need to get ready for work,” her voice is a little off from the emotions, but I understand.  
    “Go shower and I’ll make you some breakfast.” She starts to walk away and I turn back towards Mike. “I don’t care what it costs me; I just want her here in Texas with her family. I want her buried in the
