The next day, Shea and Elli went for a drive to Shea’s old neighborhood. He showed her his old house, his old school, and then the place he learned to play hockey at. After seeing that the place was turning into a dump, Shea made a call to his accountant, telling them to make a donation to the rink. He’d be damned if the place he learned how to play man’s greatest sport at was going to be ran into the ground.
Cold day in hell.
After leaving his hometown, they headed into Boston for some shopping and to get some lunch. Once in the mall, Shea was starting to notice that Elli had a spending problem. He never noticed it before, but then again he never really went shopping with her. When she saw something she liked, her eyes would light up like a Christmas tree and she would gush as she explained the reason she needed that particular thing.
She was crazy; Shea had never spent as much money on one item as she did on shoes. He had the best of everything, too, but the girl sees a pair of thigh high boots and goes nuts and drops over $2,000 on them.
Crazy!
Shea stood beside her, shaking his head as she ran her little black card.
“What?” she asked, smiling at the lady when she handed her the bag.
“$2000 on a pair of boots?”
“Shea, they’re Gucci.”
“Okay?”
“I bought you some shirts, too. The boots were only $1500.”
“Only? And why are you buying me stuff?” Shea asked with an annoyed look on his face, he didn’t like her spending her money on him. He was supposed to spend all his money on her.
“Because I want to, crabby pants. Now come on, there are so many stores I want to hit!”
“I bet. Are we going to be here all day?”
Elli smiled sweetly at him, before running her hand down his chest, over his limp arm that was taped to his chest.
“I think they have an Intimacy here.”
“What’s that?”
“A lingerie store.”
It took Shea two seconds to comprehend what she was saying, and another second to grab her hand before saying, “Lead the way.”
After dropping more money than Shea needed to, they headed home. When they arrived back at the house, they sat down for dinner with his family. Afterwards, Elli helped his mom and Grace with the dishes. When she was done, she met Shea up in the room, where he laid on the bed as she went through all her treasures that she bought that day. She had promised to model some of the things for him, so when she got up, locking the door and stripping, he took in his fill.
He loved how she wasn’t shy around him anymore. She was starting to trust him more, which was great. He knew in his heart that she was starting to fall in love with him, too. She had to be, or he was going to go bat shit crazy.
It was that simple.
Shea watched as she slid the grey lace panties and bra set on that she had gotten at Intimacy. His mouth watered as she slid some knee high grey socks up her legs, before putting on the ridiculously priced boots that she had to have.
They were suede and had a sexy little heel on them, but still. $1500?!
When she stood up, placing her hands on her hips and looking over at him, with her hair falling down her shoulders over the top of her breast, Shea took in a breath, gawking over the beauty of her body.
Okay, maybe the boots were worth $1500, because they sure made her ass look amazing.
“Why don’t you bring that sexy ass over here, let me play a little,” he asked as she moved around the room, testing out the boots, he guessed.
“No way. I said I would model for you, not let you touch me.”
“Don’t make me get up,” he warned, but all she did was giggle.
“Don’t make me tell your momma.”
“Okay, that’s just dirty.”
Elli smiled sweetly before changing into another lingerie set she had gotten. By the end of her little fashion show, Shea was as hard as a rock, and Elli wasn’t going to help him out at all. All she did was grin as she left the room to go join his mom downstairs.
“Evil woman!” he yelled as the door shut.
Elli opened it back up, smiling over at him before saying, “And you love me just the same.”
Elli shut the door, and he groaned. It was going to be the longest recovery ever, and Shea wasn’t sure he was going make it. If he had to deal with the nagging of his mother, sister, and girlfriend, he should at least be getting laid while suffering.
Was that too much to ask for?
Shea decided it wasn’t too much, so he got out of bed carefully and marched his ass down stairs. When he entered the kitchen, Elli and his mom sat at the table, looking at some photo albums of him, probably naked.
“Okay, this isn’t going to work!” Elli and his mom looked up at him. Elli narrowed her eyes, as Jenna just smiled.
“What, honey? I was just showing her some pictures of you in college.” Jenna said sweetly, but he wasn’t going to let her distract him.
“That’s fine! But if I’m going to be nagged by all you women, I need some kind of release!” Shea complained, causing Elli to turned deep red as her eyes widened.
“Shea!” Elli yelled, as Jenna looked over at her, confused. When his mother caught on, she high tailed it out of the kitchen with a quick goodnight.
“Shea, really? I was spending some time with your momma! You couldn’t wait until I came back up there?”
“No, I couldn’t. I’m mad as hell. I want you.”
“Shea, you’re being loud!”
