Chapter 35

Tank

While Lilly is doing the test the new eye doctor needs I get a call from the realtor I have been working with. " Tank, I think I have the perfect house for you.It meets all the criteria you asked for. It is right at the edge of town so it offers privacy. Can you meet me this afternoon?"She asks. I look at the time and see we will be here at least one more hour. I explained to her I won't be able to meet her until early evening. I make the appointment and have her text me the address. I'm excited. After looking at several places that weren’t the right fit. I'm hoping this house is the place where Lilly and I will be spending the rest of our lives. I have her now and I will be dead before I let her go again. I still can't believe I wasted damn near a year.

Lilly comes out and says we need to go back to the doctor’s office to get the results. While waiting my poor girl is tapping her foot nervously. I place my hand on her knee and watch her lean into me for comfort. Most of the time I don’t think she knows she is doing it. Like it is a natural reaction to me. I wrap my arm around her and pull her as close as I can without putting her on my lap. Don’t get me wrong I want her in my lap with her legs wrapped around me but not in a doctors office.

“ Sorry to keep you waiting.” Dr. Ramerez says as he and Dr. Rodgers comes into the room. Dr. Ramerez leans against the desk while Dr. Rodgers sits down. Dr. Ramerez looks at Lilly. We all know she can’t see him but I like how he treats her like she can. “ Lilly, I have compared your first set of tests to the ones we just did. I can say with confidence that I can help you. While I can not return your sight completely. I can take away the light sensitivity and the black spots. Just by doing that it might help with the headaches you have been getting.” Lilly has been getting headaches? She hasn’t said anything about it. Of course she wouldn’t, she would suffer in silence. “ I might even be able to take some of the blurriness away. That will help you to define objects better. Instead of seeing blobs as you call them.” Dr.Rodgers says “ While you will still be legally blind. And you won’t be able to drive. This surgery could help you see better than you are now.”

“ How long is the surgery and recovery?” Lilly asks. “ The surgery itself is just a few hours and you will have to stay in the hospital overnight. The recovery is only a couple days to let your eyes heal from the incisions I have to make.” Dr. Ramerez says. That doesn’t sound too bad. “ Two more questions. I will be asleep during this because if not I’m not doing it. And can we wait until after my Halloween concert?” Lilly asks. Dr. Ramerez laughs “ Yes, you will be asleep. What concert are you wanting to see?” “ Oh no, I’m not going to one. I’m performing one.” Lilly says. “ You are performing?” Dr. Rodgers asks.

I take out my phone and pull up Harry’s website. Yea after Neil told me about it I started following it. I opened one of the videos with Lilly before her accident. I handed my phone to Dr. Rodgers “ Have a look.” I say. Dr. Ramerez looks over her shoulder. I hear Lilly singing and look at their faces. They are shocked and amazed. That is the look everyone gets when they first hear Lilly sing. Dr. Rodgers hands my phone back to me when the video is over but she never takes her eyes off the screen. “ It is my comeback concert and I really don’t want to miss it. A lot of work went into getting it set up.” Lilly starts to explain. “ Lilly it is fine. How about we do it the day after your concert? That will give you the weekend to heal up.” Dr. Ramerez says. Lilly smiles “ Really?” “ Yes, if you tell us where we can get tickets to the show.” Dr. Ramerez says. “ I’ll send you both tickets myself. Expect them next week.” Lilly says.

We set up the surgery and get the information on the guide dog program before we leave. I promise I will take Lilly to the program myself. Since Lilly is going to be my ol’e lady I want the dog to get used to me before anyone else in the club. I take Lilly out to the truck. I open the door and help her in but when I try to pull away Lilly grabs my hand. She motions with her finger to come closer. No problem. Lilly wraps her arms around my neck “ Thank you for being there with me Tank. I don’t know if I could have done it by myself.” I lay my forehead on hers. “ Lilly, as long as I breathe you won’t be alone again.” I lean in for what was supposed to be a quick kiss. But as soon as my lips touched the silky pillows that are Lilly’s lips it turned into so much more. I licked her bottom lips and she let me in without hesitation. She twisted her tongue with mine in a sensual dance and I was the lead. I kissed her until we were breathless. If we didn’t get out of here soon I was going to take her right here in the parking lot. I pull back “ Let's get you home.” Lilly lets out this cute whimper.

We pull up at the clubhouse. I know the first thing we need to do is see Viper. After that I want some alone time with my girl. I open the door to let Lilly out but I suddenly get a different idea. “ Lilly I’m going to turn around and I want you to climb on my back.” “ What? “ Lilly laughs. “ Just climb on my back sweetheart.” I feel her wrap her arms around my neck as she gets on. I carefully wrap her legs around my waist. I can’t ride her on my bike yet but this is just as good. I feel her tits rubbing my back as she giggles. I swear I can feel her body heat through my kutte. I have to fight myself to keep from groaning. But fuck having her wrapped around me feels good. It would be even better if she was facing me.

Walking in the club I know we were getting odd looks. Fuck them. Ace came up to me “ Hey Tank. What’s wrong with your back?” Lilly broke out in full blown laughter. Talk about music to my ears. “ Hi, Uncle Ace.” Lilly says. “ Hey, little bit. What are you doing up there?” “ We have to talk to Viper about what the eye doctor said.” She replies. “ Mind if I join? “ Ace asks. “ Sure,” She says. We get to Viper’s office, I knock. When he grunts’ Come In’ we go in. Viper looks up from his paperwork and smirks. “ So how did the appointment go?” We explained about the guide dog and I gave Viper the papers to look over. Then we explained about Lilly’s upcoming surgery.

“ Lilly, is this something you really want to do? The surgery.” Viper asks. “ Do you think I shouldn’t do it?” Lilly asks. “ Lilly, what I think doesn’t matter. I’m just making sure this is what you want. Whatever your choice is, we will be with you.” Viper says. “ Viper I thought about all through the testing. If this surgery and getting the dog can improve my life I want to do it. They said I could gain some more independence. Like going for a walk without having to find a prospect to go with me. Or walking across a room without worrying if I’m going to trip on something. Or take a shower without worrying I'm going to hurt myself. If that is the only thing I get out of this it is enough.”

When Lilly said she was worried she would hurt herself in the shower my mind immediately thought of all the ways I could help her with that problem. Taking a shower with her. Slowly washing every inch of her. Running my hand all over her to make sure I didn’t miss a spot. Watching the water slid down her. My tongue wanting to follow the path of the water. Fuck I do not need a hard on right now. Viper clears his throat. I look up and see he is grinning like he knows where my mind went. Fucker. “ Lilly, I'll be there the day of your surgery. And you will have a guard. We have a few leads but we haven’t got the guys behind the letters yet. “ Lilly nods. “ I get it. I need to get back to work. I’ll see you at dinner?” “ I’ll see you then. I’ll come up and get you.” Lilly gets up but I stop her. I lean over and kiss the top of her head. “ I’ll take you up sweetheart.” I pick her up and carry her out. Just as I leave I hear Ace say “ I see Tank finally got his head out of his ass. But if he hurts her I’ll kick his ass, brother or not.” Don’t worry brother, I am not going to hurt her again.
