Barry opens his eyes as he throws an arm over his face. The lights were blinding him. So, Barry’s hearing was back to normal, well, what normal was for a speedster. But his vision was taking some time to recover. Things were still a blur, but he was mostly able to walk on his own. Cisco, Caitlin and Wells all agreed that rest is what he needed until he could fully see again, and since he couldn’t help being The Flash, he decided to tag along with Len on the WaveRider. Not like he was out on the mission, he literally hung out in the ship. As the entire team was still out, Barry scrambles out of the bed and carefully starts to exit the Captain’s quarters. “Barry Allen, how are you feeling today?” Gideon asks as Barry holds on to the railing and walks to the bridge. “Fine, thanks, Gideon.” When Barry makes his way to one of the chairs, he sits. “The team should be back shortly.” And Barry nods. “Gideon, can you tell me what’s going on in Central City 2016?” Barry asks in a tired breath. “It looks as though the new elected Mayor has been brought to give his first public speech. Noah Rivera won the election last week.” Barry takes this in. “Rivera, where have I heard that name before…?” “Correct, Barry Allen. He was a mob boss back in 2001, but after going to jail for his crimes in 2011, he’s cleaned up his record and has been running for mayor ever since.” After hearing the news, Barry gets up from the chair and starts to walk carefully around the bridge.
"Ai is so darn cute and beautiful. I wish I could have her looks..." Courtnei stops talking once she realized what she said. "Ummm... I said nothing." She then goes back to playing with Clara.
Right now, I don't dare to breathe.
My life is yours in your gifted hands...
Winny had a cab drop her off near the beach. Ever since the accident with Tanzie, Winny didn't drive. She didn't know how long it'd take before she finally felt okay behind the wheel of a car, she just knew it wouldn't be any time soon. Her cast had been removed earlier that day, which made for a very happy Winny. Another thing that made for a happy Winny was a text from Trevor, asking her to meet him at the beach. It kind of took her by surprise, considering how he didn't like being near water. Either way, she wasn't complaining. The beach was one of her favorite places in the world, and the fact that it was mostly vacant made the gesture all more romantic. She wore a new sun dress, just above the knee with sandals to match. Although she wasn't one hundred percent sure what to expect from him, she had a fairly good idea. They'd talked about getting married and were both keen on spending the rest of their lives together. As she walked along the beach, she saw Trevor standing a little while's away near a very romantic set up, which she assumed was for the two of them. Despite the fact that the two had just broken up and gotten back together, she was set on spending the rest of her life with him. She grinned wildly, picking up the pace until she was only a few feet away. "Mr. Cohen, you've really outdone yourself..."
Rubbing his hands together, Trevor couldn't suppress the anxiousness that he felt as he waited for the love of his life to arrive at the beach. This was the day—the day that he never thought would happen, he was going to ask Winny to marry him. And even though they had already both agreed that it was what they wanted, he still felt a tad bit afraid of her rejecting him. What if she had changed her mind? Shaking the negative thoughts away, he buried his hands deep into his suit pants and felt the small box inside that held the engagement ring that he had just picked out a few hours prior with the help of Carol who was just a little more than excited. Smiling to himself as he heard Winny's voice, he turned his focus to her before pulling his hands out of his pockets and reaching towards her to pull her into a gentle kiss. They had only been broken up for a little over a week, but it had felt like a lifetime for Trevor. "A woman such as yourself only deserves the best." he smiled as he made his way around her and pulled out a seat for her. "You look ravishing by the way." he spoke into her ear.
Winny was honestly so impressed with everything. It was so beautiful, and it was difficult for her to process what was even happening. She'd always known that Trevor was a romantic guy, but this? It just blew her away. Smiling, she kissed him back. Pulling away, she took the opportunity to merely look at him. Her mind was racing. She wanted to know what he was thinking in that very moment, but was too afraid to ask. She sat down instead, smiling as he proceeded to compliment her. God, she'd never get tired of hearing him say things like that. "You look very handsome," she giggled, hands in her lap as she continued to watch him. While Winny loved to be spoiled by him, at the end of the day, none of it mattered to her. "I thought you didn't like the beach..." she noted, brows raised. "But then again, I guess we won't be going swimming," she said somewhat nervously. At that point, she was just looking for things to say in order to keep her mind off of what would more than likely happen that night.
Trevor could only smile as Winny complimented him. He didn't know how he had gotten so lucky as to have such an amazing and beautiful woman, but he wasn't going to question it either. Sitting down in the seat across from her, he turned in his seat slightly and motioned for someone in the distance to come towards them. "I don't." he stated as his eyes locked onto hers. Her bright blue orbs seemed so much brighter in that moment and he could only hope that was because she was truly excited about what was going to happen. "I know that you like it though so I figured this would be the best place to bring you." he smiled as Jay approached them with two plates of food that Carol had whipped up earlier. Trevor smiled with a nod of his head at his friend before he disappeared again and left the two alone. "Maybe that's something that you and Mia can teach me together—swimming, that is." he said as he picked up his fork and waited for Winny to start eating since he figured that was the respectful thing to do.
Winny looked over as Jay approached them, trying not to laugh as he set the plates down in front of him. She thanked him quietly, looking down at her plate and smiling. It was Carol's cooking, no doubt. She wondered how many people were in on it, but decided not to ask. "Well, thank you for bringing me. I love the beach. It's beautiful... romantic..." she trailed off, her eyes wandering over towards the water. Laughing a little at the idea of teaching him how to swim, she nodded her head eagerly. "Yes, of course. I'll get you floaties and everything!" Picking up the fork, she took a bite out of the food, chewing slowly. "Wow. That's really, really good. My compliments to the chef," she laughed, looking back up at him. "I'm really happy right now, Trevor," she said suddenly, setting her fork down as she reached over to grab his hand. "I just felt like saying that." She squeezed his hand once before setting it back down in her lap, picking up her fork, and taking another modest bite out of the food.
His eyes grew wide at Winny's words when she mentioned floaties. He could see it now in headlines everywhere, 'Rex of one of the world's most successful gangs learns to swim with floaties'. That would be a huge hit to his ego. "I think I would rather drown than wear floaties." he stated as he took a bite of his own food after his lady. Trevor couldn't help the genuine and almost childlike grin that spread across his face when Winny told him that she was happy. No one had really ever told him that and it felt good to know that he, for once, was the cause for that happiness. "Me too." he agreed as he squeezed her hand gently. Taking a few more bites, Trevor finally threw his own fork down and stood up, "I can't wait any longer...the anticipation is literally eating me up inside." he said as he walked over to her side of the table and turned her seat to face towards him. "Winny, I don't know why you ever approached me two years ago and I don't need to know but what I do know is that from the moment I first saw you, I knew that you were something special. I never dreamed that I would ever find someone that I care about more than life itself yet here you are. And I don't get why I got so lucky but I can't imagine my life without you so...even though this isn't as special as it could've been..." he paused to chuckle lightly before he bent down to one knee and pulled a black box from his pocket, "Will you marry me?" he asked as he pulled the box open revealing small yet beautiful diamond ring.
Winny ate in silence for a few moments. It wasn't awkward or uncomfortable. It felt nice, and the fact that he was there, sharing the moment with her, made it all better. Just as she was about to take another bite of food, she saw him toss his fork down and stand up. Her heart stopped instantly, and as he turned her chair to face him, her eyes widened. "Oh, my god..." she muttered underneath her breath, resting the palm of her hand on her chest in a feeble attempt to calm her nerves. Her eyes welled up as he delivered his speech, her mind unable to comprehend how she'd gotten so lucky with him. After everything that had happened when she was a teenager, she genuinely believed that no one would want her. That all of the good parts of her had been used up. As he got down on one knee, Winny's heart started back up again. "This is really happening," she said quietly, her voice shaky. Then he asked it. The question. The big question. The one that, despite the fact that she knew it was coming, caught her off guard. Gasping at the sight of the beautiful diamond ring, Winny was at loss for words. She just nodded her head for a few seconds before finally giving him an answer. "Y-yes. Of course. Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" she exclaimed, laughing through her tears.
Trevor let out the deep breath that he hadn't realized he was holding when Winny gave her answer and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as he grinned much like a Cheshire Cat before taking her left hand in his and sliding the engagement ring on her finger. It was real. All of this was real. Not being able to shake the grin off of his face, he looked up at her and caressed her cheek with his other hand before he leaned up to kiss her passionately. "I love you so much." he said as his lips brushed against hers before he pulled away completely and stood up still keeping her left hand in his. "That ring suits you. It's almost as beautiful as you are." he smiled as he leaned down and pecked her on the lips again before taking his seat across from her again. "I can't believe we're engaged...we're going to get married...you're gonna be my wife!" he exclaimed excitedly as he picked his fork up but quickly placed it back down on the table. "I'm too excited to eat." he chuckled as he stared lovingly at the woman across from him that was going to be his wife. Even thinking the word 'wife' seemed foreign to him but he loved the way that it made him feel. It was going to be him and her until the day that they died and he couldn't wait to spend the rest of his life with her. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you." he stated, reiterating exactly what his previous thought had been.
Winny watched as he slid the ring onto her left hand with the wildest smile on her face. Laughing as he leaned in to kiss her, she rested her hand on the back of his neck. "I love you, too. More than anything in the entire world," she murmured back, resting her forehead against his and closing her eyes. "The ring is beautiful... you did an amazing job." She held her hand out to get a better view of the ring. Winny felt dizzy. Happy. Excited. She felt everything, all at once. The high she got from drugs was nothing in comparison to what she felt in that moment. "We're engaged!" She repeated after him, nodding her head excitedly. Standing up from her chair when he said that he was too excited to eat, she walked towards him and sat in his lap, resting her left hand on his chest so that she could still see the ring. "I honestly don't know how I ever got so lucky with you. I've never been this happy before. I wish we could get married right now. Right this second." Winny finally looked away, her eyes wandering over towards the water. "Let's go walk by the ocean. We won't get in. I promise. It's just... I'm at one of my favorite places in the whole wide world with my future husband. I want to enjoy it. I want to remember this, and how I feel right now." She stood to her feet, holding out her hand for him to take. "Please?"
Still not being able to shake the smile from his face, Trevor watched as Winny got up and placed herself into his lap. Wrapping his arms around her, he stared up at her through his eyelashes never letting his smile falter. "Well, I kinda had some help." he stated referring to her compliment about him doing good with picking out the ring. "Carol helped me. She's like my mom so I had to tell her first." he shrugged as he rested his chin on her shoulder. "She was really excited, Win. I think she was just as excited as we are. She really adores you." he said as he placed a kiss to the skin on her shoulder. Suddenly, Winny stood up and he instantly missed the warmth and comfort that he felt but he smiled anyway and took her hand in his as he stood up. Interlacing their fingers together, Trevor led them down towards the water just as the sun was getting ready to set. "Let's get married this weekend." he stated out loud. "I mean, I want you to be my wife right now. I don't want to wait years and years like other people do." he said as he pulled Winny's hand up to his lips and placed a gentle kiss to the back of her hand. "I want you to be Mrs. Cohen as soon as possible. I want to start our life together and start our own family."
Winny was so happy to hear that Carol was just as excited as they were. Having Carol's acceptance honestly meant so much to Winny. She knew that Trevor loved the woman like a mother, and to know that she was behind them in their decision to get married was incredible. Winny tried not to think about her own mother, wherever she might be, and her father. Who would walk her down the aisle? Who would give her away? She put the thoughts to rest almost as quickly as they'd entered her mind. "I'll have to thank Carol. She can even help me plan the wedding," Winny said softly, squeezing his hand as they walked down closer towards the water. The sun was setting, the weather was perfect, and the love of her life was walking next to her. "This weekend, huh?" She stopped, looking up at him. "But we still have to tell people that we're engaged. And we have to find a house for us to move into when we're back from the honeymoon... I need to find dresses and arrangements and so much more on top of that. Babe... the only things I know for sure are the flowers and the color. That's it..." It felt like there was still so much that they needed to do, and it was already starting to stress her out. "You know what? I don't care. I don't care where we live. I'll find a white dress, you wear a suit, and we'll fly out to Rome."
"I'm sorry, Win...I'm not trying to rush you, I'm just excited." he chuckled as they strolled side by side down the beach. "I'm kinda worried about telling Parker though. I want him to be my best man, but...I don't know, the whole thing is going to be awkward ya know? I'm afraid that he might try to seek out revenge on me for what I did and I couldn't live with myself if he hurt you because of me." he stated sadly. He didn't want to, or plan to, bring up such a topic but he needed to get it off his chest and what better way to do that than to tell the woman he was going to marry. "But anyway, I don't wanna bring the mood down so tell me, what colors do you have picked out? Hopefully some that actually look decent on me." he smiled as he pulled her a little bit closer to him. "How are we even gonna tell everyone? We can't exactly gather all of them up and announce it because let's face it...most of them hate my guts." he stated as he scratched at the stubble on his chin.
Winny shrugged her shoulders. "No, let's do it. Let's get married as soon as possible. Because you know what? I'm excited too!" She giggled, bumping into him slightly as they continued on their walk. When Parker was brought up, Winny frowned. The blonde hadn't even considered what he would probably feel when finding out that his brother was getting married. "I don't think Parker would hurt me..." she bit her lip, trying to believe what she was telling him. "I mean... he's your brother. I'd try talking to him first, if I were you. He hasn't tried to kill you again, so that's a good sign!" Winny was actually pretty scared of Parker. Even when he and Tanzie were engaged, he didn't seem too fond of Winny, and she'd be lying if she said she wasn't worried about what he'd try to pull at their wedding. "Just yellow and white. Calla lilies are my favorite flower, so they'll match with the colors well. Is that okay with you?" She smiled as he pulled her closer, instinctively wrapping an arm around him. "I don't know... Can't we just send them an email or something?"
"So...it's settled then? We'll get married this weekend?" he questioned trying to make sense of it all. He wanted to make sure that she wanted that for sure though and that she wasn't just doing it to make him happy. "I want to do whatever you want, Winny but if we get married this weekend, we can still make everything work. We can get married, have our honeymoon then come back and search for houses. We can live at the mansion until then or hell, we can even stay at your apartment if you want. I don't care as long as we're together and then once that's settled, you can get into the swing of your new job." he rambled before his movements ceased and he turned to look out over the ocean. "What do you want out of life, Win? Like, what are your dreams? What's your dream job? Do you want children?" he asked as he squeezed her hand gently. "I want to give you everything that you've ever wanted so I really need to know these things. I don't want to continue with the cartel if it makes you unhappy...I never want to be the cause of your sadness ever again, I just want to be the reason that you smile even when everything else has gone to shit."
Winny leaned forward, pressing her lips against his gently and quickly before pulling away. "This weekend," she confirmed with a nod and a smile. Holding onto his hand, she walked a few steps ahead of him, listening to him as he asked her what she wanted out of life. Everything he'd just asked her was everything she was scared of. Sighing, she turned around, facing him. "I don't... um, I don't know..." she trailed off, avoiding his gaze. "I'm not really good at anything other than taking my clothes off or sleeping with people. I wasn't even in high school long enough to figure out what I wanted. As for kids...?" She paused for a moment, looking up at him. She canted her head to the side, studying his features as she wondered what their kids would look like. If they had any. "I honestly don't think I'd be a good mom, but I like playing with kids. So... yeah. I guess I could have kids." She reached forward, fixing the collar of his shirt, wondering why she hadn't just lied and given him some easy answer, instead of the stupid, complicated baggage that she came with. "The cartel makes you happy. If you're happy, then I'm happy, too. I just don't want you getting hurt, that's all. ...what about you? Your hopes, dreams, kids?"
Reaching up to scratch the back of his neck, Trevor stayed silent for a few minutes as he tried to think of the things that he wanted in life. When he was younger, he wanted to be a superhero but that was just some stupid childhood dream and after that he had never really thought of it much—he didn't have the time. Between all of the beatings and everything else, he didn't really have time to really plan out his future and back then, he didn't care to. "I don't know." he finally spoke but he didn't dare look at her. That was such a terrible answer but he didn't know what else to tell her. "For the longest time all I ever wanted was power—power and family, but I never really thought much past that because I didn't think that there was anything else for me. I hated Parker so much for choosing his wife over his family, but that was because I couldn't understand why. You made me understand..." he said as he finally glanced over to her. "I just want you and anything else that comes along with you is just a bonus. If I have you then I'll be happy for the rest of my life. I never had any hopes and dreams until I met you—you are exactly what every hope and dream in my mind is made up of."
Winny realized then that they both really had no idea what they wanted, other than each other. At least Winny didn't. "I'm glad I helped you understand..." she smiled, looking back down at the engagement ring. It'd never get old. "You know... those two years where we just fooled around... I didn't think you loved me. I always felt like I was the one who loved you more. But I think even back then, in the back of my mind, I knew that I was going to marry you." Winny rested both of her hands on the nape of his neck, her blue eyes suddenly filling with tears. "Who's gonna walk me down the aisle, Trevor? Who's gonna give me away?" Winny asked quietly, trying not to cry. She didn't want to be sad, but ever since she was a little girl, she wanted her daddy there, at her wedding. It probably wasn't going to happen. Winny's dad stopped caring about her a long, long time ago. She just never really came to terms with it.
"I tried to trick myself into thinking that I didn't." he stated honestly. He had messed around with more women than he would ever admit, but there was always that nagging feeling in the back of his mind that would take him back to Winny. At that time though, he knew that he wasn't capable of being in a relationship nor did he deserve to be in one. No one would ever love him anyway—or that's what he told himself at least. "But it was pretty obvious that I had deeper feelings for you than I even acknowledged at the time because I continuously bought you gifts just so you would forgive me for the stupid shit that I did." he chuckled with a shake of his head. "And I didn't do that with anyone else—it was just you. I couldn't figure out why then but it's crystal clear now." he smiled as he wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her into him. Her next questions caused him to swallow a sudden lump in his throat and he honestly didn't know what to say. "I—I don't know." he answered honestly. "Who do you want to walk you down the aisle? I mean—god, Winny. I just don't know what to say and I don't want to upset you, but...who's someone that you look up to? Maybe we can get them to walk you down the aisle. Or, we can just make it our own and Tanzie can walk you down the aisle or something."
Winny leaned in, resting the side of her face against his chest. She smiled as the memories rushed back. All of the times that they'd yelled at each other for the dumbest things. All of the times that Winny had left angry. "You did do some pretty stupid stuff. I actually think I have a present for every time you messed up..." she laughed a little, so incredibly thankful that things had worked out exactly the way they did. If they hadn't, she and Trevor probably wouldn't be engaged. "I want my daddy to walk me down the aisle..." she said almost childishly, her lip quivering. Pulling away, she looked back up at him, almost like a child waiting for a solution to a very big problem. "I... I can walk down by myself. I guess I just wanted my dad to be the one to do it. ...hey, you know what? Maybe I could go visit him super quick this week and see if he'll come. He might say yes," she said, trying her best to sound hopeful. "And maybe your dad can come too..."
Trevor honestly felt terrible as he looked down at his future wife and the tears that he could see building up in her eyes. He wanted her to have everything that she wanted on her special day, but he didn't know if getting her father there would be such a good idea. "Yeah—maybe we can both go see him and ask. Who knows, right? He might be able to make it." he smiled reassuringly as he placed both of his hands on either side of her face and wiped at the wetness underneath them from the tears that had escaped. "Please don't cry, Win. I'll do whatever I can to make sure that you get everything that you want, ok?" he said with a nod of his head. Trevor closed his eyes briefly when she mentioned his father again—he really, really didn't want his poor excuse of a parent there. "I don't know..." he trailed off as he looked away from her. "I just—I don't want him there. He honestly doesn't deserve to be there. Neither of my parents do." he stated, his tone becoming almost bitter at the thought of the both of them. He had loved his mother so much and she had just disappeared without a single word and left her children with that monster of a man that was considered their father. "The only parental figure that I want on my side is Carol."
Winny knew that her dad coming to the wedding was practically an impossible task, but she wanted to at least say that she tried. "I'm sorry. I don't want to ruin tonight," she told him, shaking her head. Letting out a sigh, she looked down briefly, trying to get all of the sad thoughts out of her mind. "Okay," she simply said, followed by a nod of the head. "Just Carol. It's our wedding, and we'll invite who we want to!" She said sternly, trying to make a serious face before laughing. They'd just gotten engaged, and she wasn't about to spend the night of their engagement upset over who was going to walk her down the aisle. It felt a little silly, honestly. Shaking it all off, she looked over at the water, wishin g that she could go for a swim. Holding onto his arm with one hand, Winny reached down and untied her sandals before tossing them off to the side. Walking over closer to the water, she let her feet get wet a little. "We should've brought your floaties!" She giggled, kicking her feet up a little, almost splashing him. Winny walked towards him, holding onto both of his hands with hers and tugging him towards her a little. "How mad would you be if I got your suit a little wet?" She asked innocently, batting her lashes.
Not really knowing what else to say, Trevor just nodded his head slightly as he watched Winny reach down and slip off her sandals. What was she doing? His unspoken question was soon answered though when she put her feet into the water before making a remark about his inability to swim. "I'm not worried about the suit." he commented as he planted his feet firmly to the ground while she tried to tug him towards her. "I'm worried about drowning." he stated, eyebrows raised. He wasn't afraid to go into the water just a little bit, but he always worried about the water pulling him under and taking him out further which would end up in his death most likely. "Please don't...I can't swim and I'll die if I go in there." he pleaded as his eyes bounced from hers to the water in full on panic mode. "What if the tide sweeps me up and takes me out far into the ocean? No one would find my body and I bet the sharks would eat my remains and you'd feel really bad." he said as he tried to pull his arms out of his suit jacket so that she couldn't pull him into the water with her.
Winny let go of his hands, folding her arms shortly after. "You're not going to die," she told him, skipping back into the water. "The water's calm right now. It's not going to pull you in or anything. I promise," she said, trying her best to convince him as she walked further into the ocean. She finally stopped when the water was at her knee, getting the back of her dress just a little bit wet. "If you want your future wife, you're going to have to come in and get her," she demanded, looking back at him with innocent eyes. She knew that he was really scared of the ocean and swimming, and the last thing she wanted to do was make this a traumatic experience. Winny just wanted him to come into the water a little bit. "I'm not that deep in. You can still stand here, see? And if I don't get pulled under, you most certainly won't either. The deep part is way, way out there. Kids get in here all the time. How are you ever going to teach our future kids how to swim if you won't learn?" She asked, brushing the tips of her fingers among the water. "Come on, it'll be fun!"
Trevor sighed as he watched Winny go out into the water and practically trick him into going in the water. Mumbling under his breath about how he was sure he was going to regret this, he bent down and removed both his socks and shoes before shrugging his jacket off and letting it fall onto the sand. Stepping forward, he let the water wash up to him and cover his feet before he stepped back again. "Good swim." he smiled, but he knew that was obviously not going to be enough. Taking a deep breath then letting it out, Trevor stepped into the water and let it go just above his ankles before he stopped. Telling himself over and over in his head that he wasn't a coward, he finally just sucked it up and walked out to where Winny was standing all the while looking around him almost frantically as he wrapped his arms around her waist. "Ok, I did it. Are we done now? Let's go celebrate or something. Carol will bake you cookies or brownies or whatever else you want...let's just get out. Plus it's getting dark and we can't have you getting sick right before our wedding, right?" he rambled hoping that something he said would stick and she would allow him to get out of the water.
Winny kept her feet planted, making absolutely no effort to move from her spot as she watched him get into the water. It brought a smile to her face. At least he was making an effort. She giggled as he wrapped both arms around her waist, shaking her head. "We're not done." She said, looking up at him and resting her hands on the back of his neck. "I want to kiss my fiance in the ocean before we go." Winny looked around, noticing that a few people were looking at them like they were weird. It was probably an odd sight. Him in a suit, out in the water, but she didn't care. Leaning forward, she smiled as she kissed him slowly, pulling away only after a few seconds. "It wasn't that bad, right?" She asked, holding him by the hand before walking back towards the sand. Once they were officially out of the water, she let go and picked up his suit jacket. She shook it a little, trying to get the sand off before picking up her shoes as well. "Let's go celebrate," she agreed, wishing that she'd brought a towel to dry her feet off with. Now they were going to be all dirty. "We have to go tell Carol that I said yes! And I have to try and talk her into teaching me how to be a good wife," she told him, grinning.
"Ok, ok...quickly!" he urged as Winny leaned in and placed a short kiss to his lips. "What? The kiss or getting into the water?" he teased with a small smirk before he gripped onto her hand tightly and followed her out of the water and back to the safety of land. "How should we celebrate? I mean, we can't have sex cause you're on about this whole waiting until our wedding night thing..." he paused to roll his eyes as he took his jacket from her and draped it over his shoulder. "I guess we should probably go home first and change out of these clothes...get cleaned up a bit." he suggested as he placed his hand on the small of her back as he led them up the beach. "You'll be an amazing wife with or without Carol's help...it's the cooking that she needs to teach you how to do." he teased trying to hide the chuckle that was just clawing its way out. "I can't wait to tell everyone that you're going to be mine forever and always." he stated as he leaned down to place a kiss to the side of her head.
Winny hit him playfully, trying not to laugh when he started to tease her. "You're ass is so lucky that I can't be mad at you right now!" She warned, bumping into him playfully as they walked further away from the water. "I don't want to have sex because I want it to be special on our wedding night! Besides, I didn't say we couldn't mess around. We just can't go past second base. Maybe third, if I'm feeling generous," she smirked at him, before looking away and biting her lip. Winny didn't always have the best self control, so she was honestly more worried about breaking the "no sex" rule than him. "Hey! My cooking is delicious!" She exclaimed, somewhat defensively. "I just never get to prove it to you." Winny wrapped an arm around him, resting her head on his shoulder as they walked. "When we're married, I promise I'll have dinner waiting for you everyday when you come home from doing super important cartel stuff." It was a promise she intended on keeping, too. While she did want to continue working, she also thought playing the role of a house wife would be so much fun. "I can't wait to tell people, either. I can't wait to plan this! I can't wait for our wedding day. I just... I don't want it to get ruined. Events usually end badly around here..." she frowned.
Trevor rolled his eyes once again playfully as Winny reiterated to him that she just wanted their wedding night to be special. He did too, but he was also a man with needs. "Fine." he sighed as he continued to lead them all the way up the beach until they reached his SUV. "You cooked for me once." he stated. "I believe you made me bacon, eggs, and toast or something like that." he said as he tried to rack his brain for the memory. Trevor smiled to himself as he pictured Winny taking on the role of the stereotypical house wife. He couldn't wait for them to be married with their own home and their own life. All he had ever wanted was to be wanted back and now it was all happening and he honestly didn't deserve it. "Oh, believe me, I know..." he trailed off as he opened the passenger side door for her and helped her inside. Closing the door after her, he made his way over to the driver's side and climbed in himself before he took a moment to really get a good look at his fiance. "You are going to be such a beautiful bride." he said as he leaned over to quickly peck her on the lips before he made himself comfortable in his seat.
Winny felt so happy, she was almost sure that something bad was about to happen to ruin it all. Never before in her life had she ever felt so safe—so at peace—with anyone before in her entire life. It was strange, really, considering how many people were afraid of him. "And I'll cook for you again. Maybe I'll make you pancakes tomorrow morning or something. You can have breakfast in bed," she grinned as she settled into the car, putting her seat belt on. Getting into cars still made her a little nervous, but she would never make the mistake to not wear a seat belt again. "And you're going to be such a handsome groom..." she smiled, kissing him back before leaning back in her seat, looking out at the beach one last time before they left. As she stared out of the window, she reached over to hold his hand, not wanting to let go anytime soon. "Should we write our own vows? Or just go the traditional route?" She wondered, shifting her position so that she was facing him in her seat. "And should it be outdoors or inside? I'm thinking inside because you can't ever really count on the weather. Oh! And I need to start looking at dresses. For the bridesmaids, too. And you... we need to find you a good tux," she said, rambling on and on as she made a mental list of what she needed to do.
Turning the key in the ignition, the SUV rumbled to life before Trevor pulled out of the parking space and headed in the direction of the Cohen mansion. Feeling Winny take his hand, he glanced at her with a smile before quickly focusing his attention back on the road before them since he definitely didn't want a replay of the car accident that Winny was involved in not too long ago. As they rode along towards their destination, Trevor couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed as his fiancee rambled off question after question for the details of their wedding. He hadn't really thought through all of the details obviously and it became clear fairly quickly that there was a whole lot more to it than he realized. "Holy shit—" he mumbled. "Who knew that planning a wedding took so much thinking. I thought we could just get engaged, go to a church and get hitched." he chuckled as he squeezed her hand out of pure habit. "I would really like to write my own vows at least. There's a lot that I want to say to you and a lot that I want everyone that comes to know. You are everything to me and I want to make that clear." he said as he raised their hands up and placed a kiss to Winny's. "How about we get cleaned up, have Carol make us something to eat and we can discuss all of this then, yeah?" he questioned, eyebrows raised as he pulled into the driveway and turned the vehicle off.
Winny would never get used to how loving and romantic he was sometimes. The whole night had been perfect, and when he told her that he'd write his own vows, she knew that he really did want this just as much as she did. "It's settled, then. We'll write our own vows. I have a lot I want to say, too." As they pulled into the driveway, Winny unbuckled herself, letting go of his hand only so that she could get out of the car. "Sounds perfect, babe." She got out of the vehicle, holding onto her sandles as she tiptoed her way up the driveway, trying not to step on any rocks or anything. "I hope Carol doesn't get mad at me. My legs are covered in sand..." she mumbled, trying to wipe as much of it off before going inside as she could. "Oh, you know what else I thought of?" She began, opening the door and letting herself inside. "We need to figure out wedding invitations and music for the wedding, and also-" she stopped herself midsentence. "Sorry. I'll stop. We'll plan it later. I'm just... really, really excited," she laughed, shaking her head as she turned around to face him. Looking up at him, she bit her lip, wrapping her arms around his neck. "We're getting married. Like... for real. Like, really, really, really. And then you're going to be stuck with me forever. Now be a good future husband and give me a piggyback ride up the stairs."
Trevor pulled on the handle of the door before he stepped outside and closed the door behind following along with Winny as they both entered the house which seemed to be empty. Trevor had honestly started tuning Winny out when she started to once again ramble about the wedding. It's not that he was intentionally trying to be mean or that he didn't care about the wedding because that wasn't true—he just got bored easily with such girly matters. Shaking himself out of his thoughts when he felt two arms wrap around his neck, he instinctively grinned down at the blonde when he saw the smile on her face. She almost looked like she was glowing and that made him truly happy. "I know. It's kinda surreal isn't it?" he said as he reached up to brush some of the hair out of her face. "I'll do you one better." he smiled as he bent down slightly and placed one arm behind her back and one arm underneath her legs picking her up bridal style. "The next time I'll be carrying you like this will most likely be on our wedding night. How crazy is that?" he questioned excitedly as he carried her up the stairs and into his room before he sat her down on the counter in his master bathroom. Leaving her side for a brief moment, Trevor walked over to his jetted bathtub and turned the faucet to let the water start feeling up before he turned his attention back to his lady. "Want champagne?" he asked with a quirked eyebrow.
Winny let out a playful scream as he lifed her up, giggling before nuzzling into the side of his neck as he carried her up the stairs. When he mentioned that the next time he'd carry her like this would be on their wedding night, Winny instantly got butterflies and pressed her lips against his neck. "It's super crazy, but I wouldn't have it any other way," she spoke into his neck, pulling away only to drop the sandals in her free hand off in his bedroom. When they got to the bathroom, she almost told him not to. That she'd just get cleaned up by herself, because she really did want to take the no sex thing seriously, but decided against it at the last minute. They could get in the bath and not have sex. It was possible. "I'd love some champagne. We are celebrating, after all, aren't we?" She crinkled her nose a bit, kicking her feet back and forth on the counter before reaching down and wiping them off one last time. She hopped off, sliding out of her dress and hanging it up on the door even though it was a little dirty from the beach. She leaned down, opened up the cabinets underneath the sink, trying to find bubbles for the bath. "Do you even have bubbles?" She frowned, a little disappointed as she stood back up to look in the other cabinets, hoping to find at least something to make the bath funner.
"That we are." he smiled as he started out of the room only to be brought back in when Winny called out to him about bubbles. "Tell me—do I look like the type of person who keeps bubbles?" he asked, a light chuckle following soon after the question. "I don't even use the damn tub, Win." he stated with a shake of his head. "I'll be right back." he called out as he took off jogging out of the room. Running downstairs, he quickly gathered two glasses and a bottle of champagne before he found Carol and ended up retrieving some bubbles as well. Saying his thanks to the older lady, he jogged back up the steps and into his bedroom where he made sure to shut the door behind him since Carol was up and roaming still. "Found some." he stated as he strolled into the bathroom and placed both the bubbles for the bath plus the champagne on the counter. Once his hands were free, he snatched up the bubbles again and walked over to the large bathtub where he poured a generous amount into the water before setting it aside. "Now—you get settled in there and I'll pour us some champagne." he smiled as he walked passed her and started filling up both of their glasses.
Winny shook her head when he said that he didn't even use the tub "If I had a bathtub like this in my apartment, I'd take baths every night," she muttered underneath her breath as he left, walking around the bathroom and hanging up a few towels for themselves later. Standing in front of the mirror, she tied her hair up in a messy bun, wanting to keep her hair dry while she was in the bath. When he came back with bubbles and champagne, she laughed. "You just can't have a bath without bubbles. It's like a sin," she told him, turning off the running water. She carefully took off her bra and panties, tossing them off to the side before walking over and feeling the water with the tips of her fingers. "It feels amazing," she told him before stepping inside of the water, instantly feeling relaxed. For the first time that night, her mind was free of all the wedding planning that she had to do, and instead her thoughts were focused on one thing: how happy and lucky she was to have someone like him in her life. "Come get in, babe. It feels amazing. Especially after just having been at the beach..." she trailed off, closing her eyes and sliding further down into the bath.
Trevor stopped pouring the champagne for a few brief moments as he watched Winny undress and make herself comfortable in the bath. This whole 'no sex until the wedding night' thing was going to be the death of him—he was sure. Breaking his stare, he finished pouring the liquid into both glasses before he grabbed one and walked it over to Winny. "Here you are, your highness." he smiled as he handed the glass over to her before walking back over to the counter. Quickly, he discarded all of his clothing before he grabbed his own glass and climbed into the bathtub making himself comfortable across from his beautiful fiancee. Taking a small sip of his champagne, Trevor watched with intrigue as Winny sunk down a little lower into the tub and made herself comfortable. "You're right—this does feel nice." he commented as he placed his glass on the side of the bathtub and leaned his head back against the side letting out a sigh of relief. Closing his eyes, he relaxed even more as the jets kicked in and moved the water in a soothing manner that practically put him to sleep. "I could seriously sleep in here..." he trailed off. Why hadn't he tried this before?
Winny opened one eye when he handed her the champagne, grinning widely as she took a quick sip. Glancing over at him as he took off his own clothes and got in the bath, she sunk down deeper in the water, hoping that the bubbles would hide the stupid smirk she always got when she saw him naked. "Are you relaxed? I am," she mentioned, sitting up a little in the tub. Reaching over, she rested both of her hands on his shoulders. "If you turn around, I can give you a massage..." When he mentioned sleeping, she sat up completely, taking another drink of the champagne. "Nu uh, nope. No sleeping. Remember how I said that we could get to second and third base? That moment is right now," she said giggling as she leaned forward to kiss him playfully. She knew it was probably a bad idea, but she didn't care. The jets definitely weren't helping her situation right now either, and she almost wondered if he did it on purpose as some stupid way to seduce her without actually trying. All she was sure of was that she wouldn't give in. At least not completely, and just because she'd established that no sex rule didn't mean she didn't want to fool around a little bit with her fiance.
Trevor was practically asleep when he felt the water shift and a kiss on his lips. His eyes fluttered open only for him to see Winny practically hovering over him with that smile on her face that she always got when she wanted something and in this case, it was him. And while he would have usually had no problem with that, this time was different because it wouldn't be ending in sex and that was upsetting. "What are you doing?" he questioned as he reached up and caressed her cheek with his thumb. Seeing her naked was always enough to get him excited but her practically teasing him couldn't end well. "It's not nice to tease, Win." he stated blandly as he dropped his head against the back of the tub again and closed his eyes. Maybe if he ignored her advances then he wouldn't have a reaction to them. "I'm already gonna have to deal with the day when we're older and you no longer have a sex drive so you should let me enjoy even having a sex life with you as much as I can before we get married." he said with a small smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. Maybe he could get away with tricking her into sex. She wasn't exactly one to have much self control so it was something that could actually work—something he was praying would work at this point.
Winny raised both brows, her mouth slightly agape. "I'm not teasing..." she said, her voice laced with fake innocence. Glaring at him as he leaned back and closed his eyes, she almost wanted to just give up and get out of the tub. But then he started talking again, and she smirked. "Oh, shut up." Rolling her eyes as he went on about enjoying sex together before getting married, Winny kept her eyes locked on his. "Everything feels different under water. Or at least, that's just what I've heard. And then all of these jets..." she trailed off casually, running her hands along his thighs slowly. The blonde was fairly experienced with sex and always wanted to try new things. Fooling around in a bathtub was one of those things. Wrapping her fingers around his cock, she bit her lip as she slowly began to slide her hands up and down. It was different under water. Slower. But she didn't mind. It was him that she was concerned about. "Oh, sorry, my hands slipped..." She pulled away completely, leaning back against the tub and closing her eyes as if nothing had happened. "Go back to sleep, babe. You looked kind of tired. I can finish up in here alone..."
Trevor was almost in a dazed and confused slumber when he was suddenly and quite unexpectedly brought out of it by a somewhat tingling sensation running throughout his entire body. The motion caused both of his eyes to pop open and he sat up quite abruptly only to see that Winny was leaning back against the tub casually. "What—the hell?" he questioned as he stared wide eyed at the girl across from him. "You can't just do that and then—then...not!" he exclaimed as his eyebrows furrowed together. "That's really mean and you shouldn't treat your future husband that way." he stated with a tilt of his head and a slight pout. "Maybe we can work something out..." he trailed off as he maneuvered his way towards Winny. He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him before he placed himself in her previous spot and pulled her back against his chest. "We've got to learn how to compromise anyway so, why not start now?" he smiled as he nuzzled his nose against her neck before planting a few butterfly kisses there then biting down gently. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Trevor walked his fingers down her stomach and across her waistline before he let them slide down her center with a little pressure hoping that would at least make her rethink her newly found celibacy.
Winny giggled a little at his reaction, canting her head to the side slightly as she watched him sit up. "Oh, no..." she frowned, trailling off. "The last thing that I want to do is be mean to my future husband. I guess I'll have to fix that." Following his lead, she leaned back against his chest, allowing her eyes to flutter shut as he kissed her neck. Then his hands were around her waist, his fingers sliding down her body. Opening her eyes and biting her lip, she tried to stay as quiet as possible. "Keep doing that..." she demanded with a whisper. Winny knew that staying in control would be difficult, especially since it had been so long since they were intimate together- probably before he'd faked his death. Arching her back so that there would be some space between them, she reached behind herself with one hand, resting it where it had been only moments before. She gripped him tightly, stroking slowly as she wondered if she could hold off any longer. She wanted so badly to just turn around and ask him to make love to her. Because, honestly, no one in the entire world made love as incredible as Trevor did. And the idea that, from then on, she would only be making love with him, left her breathless and excited for their journey together as a married couple.
Continuing his assault on her neck, Trevor's hips thrusted forward slightly when Winny started to stroke him once again. He wanted so badly to just make love to her, but he knew that there was a fair chance that it really wouldn't happen so he, instead, continued to slide his finger down her center before pushing the digit inside her and using his thumb to apply pressure to her clit. Biting down on her neck a little roughly, he let out what resembled a growl against her skin as she continued her slow pace. Not being able to handle what he would call teasing, he removed his hand from her completely before also removing her hand from him and turning her around to face him. Leaning forward, he placed a passionate kiss to her lips as he pushed her back to the opposite side of the bathtub, grabbed her by the waist, and hoisted her onto the edge where the window was. Leaving one of her legs dangling into the water, he placed the other one up onto the backside of the tub making sure that her knee was bent before he looked up at Winny through his lashes and smirked, "You'll be begging me to fuck you after this..." he stated as he dipped his head and let his tongue snake out over her clit briefly before replacing his tongue with his mouth.
Winny 's toes curled up as soon as she felt him slide a finger in, biting on her lip as her heart rate instantly picked back up. "Oh, god," she whimpered, moving her hips slightly as she urged him with her body to keep going. Instead, he did the exact opposite. Just as she was about to ask why he'd stopped, his lips were against hers and she was being pushed back. Looking down at him, she nervously placed a hand over her mouth. This was all happening really fast, and if they kept going, they wouldn't stop, even if it had been her idea to begin with. "Baby..." she started, watching as he nuzzled in between her legs. "We... the wedding..." she began, trying not to think about how amazing his mouth felt against her skin. "We ha-have to wait..." she managed to get out in between whimpers, though she was doing absolutely nothing to stop him. As his tongue swept over a sensitive spot, Winny sat up abruptly, closing her eyes and letting out a moan. She'd been worried only moments before about someone hearing her, but all that worry melted away in seconds. Reaching down, she ran her hands through his dampened curly hair, tugging on it as she grew frustrated with her body for giving in so easily. "Fuck me," she said, her voice high pitched from the orgasm that was on his way. "Do it. Right now. Hard," she begged, unable to stand another second without him inside of her.
Trevor only seemed to smirk more when Winny practically whimpered against his touch. She tried so hard to fight against her urges but it wasn't long before she gave in and as soon as the words that he had been waiting to hear left her mouth, he instantly rose up and grabbed her by the hips to lift her up off the side of the bathtub. Trevor kissed her hungrily as he took Winny's previous spot setting her down onto his lap as he continued his assault before guiding himself into her a little more roughly than he had intended. Pulling away from her lips, he placed both of his hands on either side of her hips and lifted her up slowly then pushed her back down onto him causing a low groan to escape from his mouth. He repeated said action multiple times before he moved one of his hands from her hip to the small of her back as he thrusted into her at a slower pace. His eyes met hers as he took a moment to just really admire the beauty that was before him. Even when her hair was a mess, she was still the most beautiful woman in the world and she was all his forever. Crashing his lips onto hers again in a passionate kiss, he picked up his face and thrusted into her a little harder and a little faster.
Winny didn't have time to think about their wedding night and how special she had wanted it to be. Instead, she focused on how amazing everything he did felt. With her lips pressed against his, the two shared a hungry kiss. It was incredible how satisfying that kiss alone was. Then, she felt him guide himself inside of her. It was unexpected and harsh, but she didn't mind it. Instead, she welcomed it, grazing her teeth along his bottom lip before she tugged on it gently. While he practically took control of the entire situation, Winny let her head fall back and wondered if she'd regret doing this later. As soon as his movements picked up and she had her lips pressed against his once more, Winny wrapped her arms around his neck to hold on tight. Breathing heavily against his lips, she grinded against him at a slow pace, trying to calm things down a bit. She didn't want to finish. Not yet, at least. She pulled away from the kiss only to look down, mouth agape as she watched their bodies collide. Unable to hold back the whimpers and moans that escaped her lips, she felt her body start to tremble and realized that she was close. Looking back up at him, she grabbed one of his hands and brought it to her mouth, grazing her teeth over his fingers in a feeble attempt to quiet herself.
A small smirk flashed across Trevor's mouth as he watched Winny put his hand to her lips in what he figured was an effort to quiet herself, but he definitely wasn't having that. He wanted to hear how good he was making her feel and he didn't care if anyone else heard. "I don't think so..." he stated in a near whisper as he pulled his hand away from her mouth. "Don't hold back. No one is going to hear you." he said trying to urge her on even though he wasn't exactly being truthful. There was probably a fairly good chance that anyone in the house could hear her, but he didn't care. This was his house and he was allowed to do whatever he wanted without having to worry about holding back or keeping quiet. Placing his hands back in their previous positions on Winny's hips, Trevor started to thrust into her again at a much faster rhythm than before. He could feel that he was close to his own release, but he wanted her to reach hers before him. Dipping his head to her neck, he let his tongue snake out and taste her skin before he bit down at the same moment that he applied pressure with his thumb to her clit hoping to send her over the edge.
Winny frowned when he pulled his hand away, trying to find some other way to keep herself quiet. When he said that it was okay for her to make noise, that no one would hear, she reluctantly nodded her head. Her moans were quiet at first, but eventually they built up. Feeling his tongue against her neck, Winny leaned her head back a little, her hips trying to keep up with the fast paced rhythm that he'd set. Her moans eventually grew louder and louder, and she could tell that if anyone was home, they would definitely be able to hear since even she could hear her own sounds echoing back from the bathroom walls. But that was the last thing on her mind. "Don't stop!" She cried out, wondering if what she said came out coherently or not. She ran her fingers through his hair, pulling on it as she felt her muscles start to tighten up. Letting out one last loud moan as the waves of pleasure washed over her, Winny wrapped her legs around him, not wanting to let go quite yet. "Oh, my god. We're only allowed to have sex in bathtubs now. New rule," she panted into his ear, her entire body still shaking.
"Don't stop!" As soon as the words left Winny's mouth, Trevor immediately picked up his pace knowing that she was close and before he knew it, he could feel her tighten around him before she found her release and he found his soon after groaning into the side of her neck as his body relaxed completely. His chest heaved up and down as he tried to regain his composure before he heard Winny speak again causing him to raise his head up and look at her. "Yeah...ok." he rolled his eyes with a smile as he kissed her gently, but with as much passion as their kisses shared before. "I guess we should probably try to actually get cleaned off this time." he said as he finally lifted her off of him and sunk back down into the bathtub. "C'mere." he motioned as he leaned back against the tub before pulling her to him and placing her back against his chest. "I love you so much." he whispered as he wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. And it was true. He loved her so, so much—more than he had ever loved anyone else and that scared him.
Winny smiled into their kiss, feeling immensely happy as she watched him sink back down into the tub. Her body was still a little shaky, so she welcomed the comfort of the warm water below. Leaning back against his chest, she rested her head on his shoulder, looking up at him and smiling. As he told her how much he loved her, she smiled, closing her eyes. "I love you, too... You know, I'll never get tired of hearing you say that..." she told him, resting her hands on top of his arms. It had been such an intimate night for the both of them. It wasn't just the sex, either. But the proposal all together. She was going to marry the man of her dreams—the man who she'd been hopelessly in love with for two years now. "I don't think anybody makes love as good as you do," she whispered, her eyes fluttering open to look over at him. "You made me break my promise to not have sex until the wedding night..." she raised both brows, but wasn't really all that bothered by it. How could she be, after what'd just happened? "Just promise me that our wedding night will still be spectacular. That it'll be perfect, even if we didn't wait."
Trevor smiled to himself at Winny's words. He would never get tired of hearing her say it either. No one had ever told him that they loved him more than his future wife did and he would never tire of hearing it. "Oh, I know." he teased with a small smile. "You better watch it or else you'll cause my ego to get even bigger than it already is." he said as he tightened his hold around her just wanting to savor this moment. He didn't want this to end, he just wanted them to stay in their happy little bubble forever. "Of course." he answered as he lifted his head up. "It's gonna be our fucking wedding night, Win! There's no way that it couldn't be special." he grinned. "Can I ask you a serious question without you getting pissed off at me? Because I don't want to ruin this moment, but I have to know..."
Winny didn't have the energy to argue with him about his ego. She knew that he was very well aware of how amazing sex with him was. Instead, she just shook her head and rolled her eyes. Listening to him say that their wedding night would still be special made her feel better about breaking her promise. Looking straight ahead, she lifted her foot up, using it to open the faucet back up and then closing it. She repeated this for several moments as she thought about what he possibly had to ask her that might make her mad. She didn't want their night to get ruined. "Um... okay. Now you're kind of freaking me out," she laughed nervously, looking back up at him, slightly puzzled. "What is it...?"
Trevor almost regretted even bringing anything up as soon as it had left his mouth because he didn't want to ruin the happiness that they had since it was on very rare occasions that they could be this happy with each other without something disrupting it. "Are you, even just a little bit, still in love with your ex?" he questioned hoping that there wouldn't even be a hesitation in her answer. Hoping that she was one hundred percent sure that she was in love with Trevor and Trevor only with no hindering feelings for someone else in the back of her mind. "Like, if the both of us were on the verge of death and you could only save one...which would you choose? Who would be the first person to pop into your mind without even having to think about it?" he asked. "I just don't want what happened with Tanzie and Parker to happen with me and you..."
Winny should've known what the question was before he even asked it, and as soon as he did, she wished that he hadn't. "Trevor..." she began, running a hand through her wet hair. "I love you, but you can't ask me stuff like that," she sat up, wondering if it was time to get out of the bathtub. "Look..." she began, looking back at him from over her shoulder. "I loved Christian. He was my first love. He was there when I was getting off all the drugs and he helped. He brought me back to who I was. The reason we broke up was because I was too scared to tell him that I loved him. I was too scared to show it." She paused, leaning back into him. "We are not Parker and Tanzie. We are Trevor and Winny. And I love you more than I've ever loved anyone in my entire life. The way I loved Christian is nothing in comparison to how much I love you." Winny grabbed his hand, squeezing it tightly. She meant every single word, too. Chris would always have a special place in her heart, but Trevor was who she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. "What about Kora? I mean... did you love her? There was no one else though, right? It was just me and Kora...?" She asked, looking up at him.
Honestly, he understood what she was saying and he really couldn't have asked for a better answer unless, of course, he were to ask her to lie but she was telling him the truth and he appreciated that so he just nodded in response. He gulped though as she turned the question around on him. Did he love Kora? "I was in a different place then, Win. I didn't get what love was and I didn't care to. I can't really give you an answer because...I don't know. I can tell you that I cared about her. I didn't want anything bad to happen to her and she did take care of me when you were off fucking Zach so there's that..." he trailed off as he let her other question sink in. Of course there were more women than just Winny and Kora, but he knew what she meant. Was there someone else that he messed around with like he did with them and there was. He just didn't know if he wanted to tell her or not because it didn't matter now. After a few moments of thinking, he finally decided to tell her the truth because they were going to be married which meant that trust was everything. "Yeah...there was." he answered as he reached over and grabbed Winny's discarded glass of champagne since he couldn't reach his. Throwing back the rest of it, he placed the glass back on the side of the tub before he turned Winny around to face him completely. "Sierra."
Winny rolled her eyes when he brought Zach up. "Are you always going to bring Zach up?" She asked, sitting back up. "I slept with him because you were mad at me about the warehouse party. I slept with Zach because you tried drowning my best friend, and I wasn't about to get in bed with you." She could already tell that if they kept talking about all of this, the night wouldn't end well. When she'd asked if there was every anybody else, she honestly wasn't expecting him to actually say yes. "What?" She asked, sitting up, all of a sudden feeling kind of embarrassed. "I asked you about Sierra before, and you said..." she trailed off, unable to grasp the fact that there was someone else. "Uggh! I can't believe this is happening right now. Tonight, of all nights." She stood to her feet, getting out of the bathtub and wrapping a towel around herself. "You told me that Sierra was only just a friend, and you lied!" Winny genuinely could not believe that she was right, and he had lied. "Seriously, when are all of the lies going to stop?" She asked, walking out of the bathroom and shutting the door behind her. Winny sat on the edge of his bed, shivering a little. The last thing she wanted to do was fight, but she was just so disappointed at the fact that he would lie to her.
Trevor didn't even have time to reply to any of Winny's questions or statements before the blonde had stormed out of the bathroom leaving him in the bathtub alone and slightly confused. He knew that he shouldn't have brought up the whole Christian thing but he did anyway and now it was going to ruin their entire night. Sighing to himself, Trevor gripped either side of the bathtub and pushed himself up into a standing position before stepping out into the cold air that currently inhabited the bathroom. Reaching into the tub, he pulled the plug to drain the water before grabbing a towel himself and wrapping it around his waist. Once it was secure around him, he placed his hand on the doorknob and pulled the door open to reveal Winny sitting on the edge of his bed. His face fell as he looked at her with disappoint clearly etched across her face before he made his way over to her and took a seat beside her on the bed. "The lies stop now, Win...that's why I'm telling you all of this. I don't want to lie to you anymore because we're getting married and marriage is built off of trust. I promise that I will never lie to you again, ok? Can we just forget about this conversation tonight and go to bed? I don't want to ruin our moment." he stated as he wrapped and arm around her willing her to budge.
Winny stood up the second that he wrapped his arm around her, walking over to his closet to get some clothes to wear. "If it were me, you wouldn't let me off that easy. You would be so mad at me, and you wouldn't forgive me anytime soon," she stated flatly, holding the towel around herself as she pulled out one of his shirts and some shorts. Walking back over to where he was sitting, she folded her arms, looking down at him. "I felt like the biggest asshole in the entire world for assuming that something was going on between you two. And you lied and said that nothing was there. Did you cheat on me with her? She came back from Paris or whatever and said she had a gift for you. And that you had to go to the bedroom to get it. So did you cheat?" Winny paused, turning away from him, knowing that if she kept looking at him she might start crying. "Did you love her? Are there more women that you hooked up with on the side? Maybe you have some kids I don't know about?" Winny unwrapped the towel, drying her hair off with it before throwing on his shirt and slipping into a pair of shorts. "I need to know," Winny sighed, hanging the towel up before finally climbing back onto the bed and sighing. "I'm just tired of looking like an idiot..."
Trevor kept his mouth shut and instead just watched as Winny walked around the room to find some clothes to sleep in. She had every right to be mad and he knew that, but he felt like she was overreacting just a tad bit. Then again, most of the women in his life were over dramatic in some way or another. Once Winny had finished drying her hair off with her towel and changing, she climbed back onto the bed as Trevor stood up and made his way over to his dresser. "Of course I didn't cheat on you, Winny. I would never." he stated as he pulled the top drawer open and grabbed a pair of boxers. "There were other women...just one night stands mostly then you, Kora, and Sierra but that was it really. And all of that shit was before you and me became an actual couple so it shouldn't even matter." he said as he pulled the towel away from his body and slipped the boxers on. "No, I didn't love her." he answered as he climbed back onto the bed and made himself comfortable on his pillow. "No kids. I was always extremely cautious with everyone...except for you especially here lately." he said as he ran a hand through his damp hair. "I swear that I've told you everything that I can think of...I won't lie to you or make you look stupid ever again." he promised as he reached towards her. "Lay with me, please?"
Winny watched him, listening to what he was saying and wondering if he really meant it. She didn't want to fight or argue on the night that they got engaged. The blonde just wanted to forget about it all and go to sleep, but she couldn't. How could she let something like that go? "Okay," Winny said flatly, still clearly upset but not wanting to talk about it anymore, knowing that it'd only make it worse. When he asked her to lay with him, she didn't object. She thought about the last time that she'd laid in that bed. It was when she thought he was dead and had spent days and nights just laying there, crying her eyes out. Getting underneath the covers, Winny faced away from him, reaching back to grab one of his arms and wrap it around her. She stayed quiet for a moment, just thinking about everything that had happened that night. There was no way she could go to bed mad at him. Not when they'd just gotten engaged. "I'm not mad..." she began softly. "I asked and you just told me what I didn't want to hear. Let's go to bed. I have to start planning wedding stuff soon anyway. Trevor, I didn't mean to ruin our night..."
Even though Trevor didn't believe what Winny was saying about not being mad, he didn't want to bring it up since he had pretty much just ruined their entire mood for the evening and he really didn't want to make it worse. Letting out a deep sigh, he made himself comfortable under the covers and cuddled up to Winny as she pulled his arm around her. Burying his face into her hair, he inhaled and smiled to himself, "Your hair always smells like vanilla, no matter what. I don't know how, but it's one of my most favorite things in the world." he commented as he pulled her as close to his body as possible. "No...I'm sorry. I was the one who stupidly brought up something that I shouldn't have. Let's just forget it and move on. I know that you're the only one for me and that I love you more than anything...even more than Carol's grilled cheese sandwiches and that's saying a lot." he smiled into her hair before he leaned up and placed a kiss to her cheek. "I can't wait until I get to wake up every single morning next to you." he stated.

"I can't wait until I get to wake up every single morning next to you." he stated.
Winny was trying desperately not to smile as he went on about her hair. She was still upset, but eventually gave in. Listening to him say and notice things like that about her made her feel special because they were things that Trevor and only Trevor noticed. "That's because of my shampoo, doofus," she murmured lazily, her eyes closed but the sound of a smile evident in the way she spoke. "It's okay," she told him quietly, reaching down to find his hand and twining their fingers together. "I forgive you." She giggled a little when he's said he loved her more than grilled cheese sandwiches, shaking her head a little. "You love me more than a sandwich? How did I ever get so lucky?" she teased, opening her eyes. "Tomorrow, I'm asking Carol to show me what her secret ingredient is for those stupid sandwiches." She squeezed his hand in hers, looking straight ahead at the wall. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. And I can't wait for you to come home to me every single night. I can't wait to cook dinner for you and pick out your clothes for work the next day. I can't wait to make love to you when I'm your wife, and I can't wait until we start trying to have babies, even if I don't think I'd be a good mother," she rambled on in a whisper, wondering if he was still even listening. "I just can't wait to grow old with you."
"I know that." he chuckled nudging her gently. "But it literally always smells like that no matter what you do. Today, for example, we were out in the hot sun, jumped into the ocean then fucked yet your hair doesn't smell any different. Do you not sweat?" he questioned, his words starting to slur together as exhaustion started to take over. At this point he really had no idea what he was saying and he figured that it didn't really make sense so he just closed his eyes and prepared to give in to sleep. When he felt Winny grab his hand, he squeezed hers gently before laughing at her next few statements. "Me neither, Win...me neither." he agreed. At the mention of kids, Trevor tensed up a little bit trying not to show how slightly uncomfortable it made him. It wasn't even that he was against the idea of having kids, it was just the realization that if they did have children that it would change everything. There would be no more cartel and there would probably be no more Parker. He was surprised when Parker had taken the news of him getting engaged so well, but if he were to get Winny pregnant then he was sure that his brother would lose it. Trevor was getting to have the life that his brother would have had if he didn't screw it all up and that really wasn't fair. "You would make a wonderful mother. You're kind, caring, and considerate...I think that's all a person could ask for."
Winny could hear in his voice that he was tired, so the conversation about her hair smelling good made her laugh. She felt him shift slightly, making her feel like maybe she'd said something wrong, so she stayed quiet for a bit. "...good thing we don't have to worry about having kids for a while. I'm on the pill. Since you clearly never seem to have condoms around," she said lazily, laughing a little. "But thank you... for saying I'd be a good mother. I think my mom was a good mother..." She yawned, sitting up a little to fix her pillow. "I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep, babe," she suggested, leaning down to kiss him briefly. Pulling away, she smiled down at him before laying back down to how she was only moments before. "Wrap your arms around me. Tight," she told him, knowing that she wouldn't be able to go to sleep unless she felt him around her. "I love you so much. Thank you for the best night of my life," Winny said softly, closing her eyes and getting comfortable. "Goodnight," she mumbled.
"I do actually." he stated as a matter of fact. "We just always have sex in random places so they're not on hand." he smiled into her hair before feeling her move around. Opening one eye to see what she was doing, he saw her fix her pillow before leaning down to give him a quick kiss. Smiling to himself as she made herself comfortable, he did as he was told and pulled her into his body tightly. "No, thank you. You've made my life worth living...I love you." he said as he placed a butterfly kiss to her shoulder. It was true...Winny gave him a reason to live, a reason to fight and for that, he couldn't thank her enough. She made him feel more alive than anything else in the world. "Goodnight, my beautiful fiancee." he said as he finally relaxed fully ready to drift off to sleep.
