  Yep. Should’ve listened to Adam.

  Erin and Sophia both look at me with murder in their eyes, scream and yell, while telling me it’s my fault and that Erin should cut off my balls and feed them to the birds. Adam laughs in the corner, and suddenly I feel pretty small so I keep quiet the rest of the morning and keep telling myself this isn’t Erin, it’s the hormones.

  It’s a little before noon and Erin’s sleeping on the couch. Watching her sleep is one of my favorite things to do. Being home feels good, especially coming home to my girl. Erin’s my first serious relationship, and I want her to be my last. Being with her makes my life better, and I want to make sure that she knows that. She’s more than my fiancée or the mother of our child, she’s the love of my life, and I vow to make sure she never forgets that. Every time I see her, I fall in love all over. I’m not sure where my life would be if I had never met her. Sitting down next to her, I stroke her cheek and hear her mumbling in her sleep. I lean down and kiss the top of her head. “Sleep well, baby.”

  I start cleaning and organizing the kitchen. I lean against the counter, cross my arms against my chest and watch Erin sleep. I turn my back to her to finish the dishes when I hear her talking to our baby.

  “Do you know how happy I am to have you growing in me? Your daddy and I love you so much, sweetheart.”

  Listening to her talk to our baby makes me smile. She’s going to be a great mom, and we’re going to give our baby everything.

  When I am done with the dishes, I head over to the living room and sit down beside her. She leans on me, and her breathing steadies. “Tell me a story.”

  Stroking her hair, I know what story she wants to hear. “One night the lonely boy meets the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen. She takes him by surprise and helps him out of his shy shell. They go out for sushi with their friends and later that night, they spend all night talking. The beautiful girl is actually really shy and scared of her life. She thinks she has to be a certain way but the lonely boy leans in to kiss her and tells her she doesn’t need to be that way with him. They share their first kiss and after that night, the lonely boy isn’t lonely anymore. The beautiful girl changed his world and now they’re engaged and expecting a baby.”

  Erin holds onto my polo and softly cries. “Our story.”

  “The best one yet.”

  We both sit quietly in the living room listening to our hearts beating and thinking about our future. We have an appointment soon, and I know Erin can’t wait to know for sure about her pregnancy.

  * * * * *

  We’re holding hands in the exam room, waiting for the doctor to come back in. Erin’s feeling better and has a bright smile on her face. Her mood is back to her happy self and the doubt disappears. Doctor Benson comes back in the room, with a smile on her face.

  “Congratulations, you two. Erin, you are definitely pregnant.”

  I bring her in my arms, and we both start laughing. “Thanks, doc.” I kiss Erin’s forehead. “I love you so much.”

  “I love you, too.”

  "From your blood work it looks like you're about ten weeks pregnant." Doctor Benson looks up and smiles at us, "Everything looks great, Erin." Erin squeezes my hand and we listen to her tell us some more information, and she reminds us to schedule our next appointment.

  A smile flutters my face and there’s a mix of fear and happiness. This child is going to be the best thing to happen to Erin and me. I think about everything that comes with having a baby. I don’t care if we have a boy or a girl. As long as our baby is healthy, life’s going to be great. I touch her cheek, so soft to my touch. Doctor Benson gives us a list of things to watch out for and what to do.

  Erin gets off the exam table, looking as beautiful as ever. The heavenly smile makes me weak in my knees. I’m turned on watching my girl and seeing how happy she is, carrying our baby. I run my hand down her back and feel her beautiful ass.

  “Stop!” She giggles. “I have to get ready.”

  I bring my lips to her ear and kiss the sensitive spot she loves. Her body melts into mine as I run my fingers along her belly. “Can’t wait to get you home and feel your wetness.” My lips kiss her neck and bring her closer to my body. “You are so sexy right now, do you know that?” She shakes her head. “I want to be inside you and feel how wet I make you.” Erin’s body shudders, and I love making her feel this way. “Come on, let’s go home.”

  “I hate you so much,” she seethes.

  * * * * *

  I have chicken in the pan-frying and vegetables steaming. I look over and see Erin on the couch watching a movie. “Babe, do you need anything?”

  “No, I’m okay.” She continues to watch her movie and ignore me.

  “What movie are you watching now?” I ask, leaning against the wall.

  “Safe Haven.” I walk over to her, start kissing her neck and massaging her thigh. “Connor,” she whimpers.

  “Hmmm?”

  Erin shakes her head and pushes me away. “Stop! Hello! Josh is on TV right now!”

  Stepping away with a hurt expression on my face, “I see how it is.” I go back to cooking while Erin sits on the couch laughing at me. Her laugh fills the entire living room and kitchen. Damn, I love her.

  I set the kitchen table and put out our dinner. Looking over, Erin’s wiping her tears and completely ignoring me.

  “Movie done, babe?” She nods, blowing her nose and letting out a sigh. I walk over to her and pick up my beautiful girl. She throws her head back and laughs.

  I set her down, and she kisses me gently on my cheek. “Thanks for making dinner tonight. It looks so good.”

  We both sit down, and I pour sweet tea in a glass for her and twist off the cap from my beer. Erin tells me more about her job, and the excitement on her face tells me how happy she is. I’m proud of her and am glad she’s happy.

  After dinner, we clean the kitchen and head upstairs. Erin starts yawning as she changes into my shirt. Damn, she looks so good. I slowly walk over to her and she raises an eyebrow, looking at me with her sexy blue eyes.

  “What are you thinking, Mr. Simpson?”

  I wrap my arms around her waist and lift her up, pushing her up against the wall by our bed. She wraps her legs around me as our lips meet. I spin around and lay her down on her back. My hand graces her stomach, ever so gently, finally reaching her sweet spot, moist and wet. “Always so ready for me,” I say, never taking my eyes off her. I slide in two fingers. “Keep your eyes open, babe. I want to see you come apart. I want to hear you scream my name”

  “Ohhhhh! Connor!” I slide my fingers in and out and kiss her neck, taking in her amazing smell. “I’m about to come, Connor!” She screams, coming undone around my fingers. Erin pushes me off and unbuttons my jeans. She pulls down my jeans and takes my cock in her hands. “Mmmm, I do miss you.” When I feel my dick in her mouth, I let out a moan and rock myself in and out of her.

  “Fuck, baby. That feels so good. Take it all the way in.” She does, and I’m about to lose my mind. I lace my fingers in her hair, grabbing it and holding tight. Shit, I need to be inside her. “Stop, baby.” I lift her up from our bedroom floor and put her back on our bed. I slide into her, hearing her sharp gasps. “God, you’re so tight.” I pound into her as she screams my name. In a few minutes, we both find our release.

  “Feel better?”

  “Mmmmm, so much.”

  I get into bed with her and hold her in my arms. Erin turns her head to me, giving me her beautiful smile. “I love you, baby. So much.”

  “Always, Connor,” she softly responds.

  Chapter Five

  Erin

  After a day full of meetings, I’m ready to go home and be with my man. He’s been texting me all day, telling me how much he misses me, and how he can’t wait to be with me again. I shut down my computer and walk out of the office. As soon as I walk out, Connor’s standing by his car, one leg over the other, waiting for me.

  “Babe, what are you doing
here?” I ask, walking up to him. I give him a quick kiss on the lips and hug him.

  “Just wanted to surprise my girl. Come on.” He takes my hand, and we walk a few blocks down, talking about each other’s day, and enjoying the time that we have together.

  “Surprise!” I look up and see that we’re at Barnes and Noble. I’m not sure how to react.

  “Umm, this is different.” Connor laughs and takes me inside.

  “I thought it’d be good for both of us to buy some books about being pregnant and what we should be expecting.”

  That’s it! He’s done it! I can’t believe I’m going to marry my Prince Charming. He’s so thoughtful and romantic and always thinks of me.

  “Awww, babe, this is so sweet!”

  Connor and I go stroll through the bookstore and buy every book about pregnancy that we can find. The look of excitement when we browse the books makes me so happy, and he keeps telling me how much he loves me and can’t wait to watch our love grow. His beautiful words make me love him so much more and it just keeps getting better.

  After buying out Barnes and Noble, we head to dinner and talk about what’s been going on. Connor talks about California and the projects. He looks so tired, and I just want him to feel better. I quickly change the topic to something a little less stressful and the smile on his face makes me weak in the knees.

  “I love you so much,” he says, taking my hand in his and rubbing small circles. “Having you in my life makes everything better, Erin.”

  “I love you too, Connor. I’m so proud of you.” I look down at our hands, and I can feel his eyes burning into me.

  “Erin, don’t.”

  “What?”

  He places his finger under my chin and gently lifts my face to meet his. “I know it’s rough, and I’m sorry. I wish I could be here with you every single day but soon baby. Remember, just have faith in us.”

  I let out a quiet sigh. “I’m trying Connor.”

  We remain quiet the rest of dinner. I can feel him looking at me, and I know he wants to make me feel better but now that I’m pregnant, I don’t want him traveling so much. He needs to be part of the appointments and to feel the first time our baby moves. I know I’m being selfish, but it means a lot to me that he is involved in all aspects of this pregnancy. I want to share and enjoy all the small moments with him as well as the bigger stuff.

  When we finish dinner, Connor and I walk out together with our hands entwined. We pass the car and before I can say anything, Connor tells me to trust him and just follow his lead. After a few minutes of walking, we turn to the beach, and I start wondering what he’s doing.

  “Connor?”

  “Do you remember the first time you brought me here?” I nod my head yes. “That was one of the best nights, Erin.” He walks closer to me and reaches out for my hand. “I need you to let go of your fears and find your way back to me. No more doubting us and being sad. I know you want me here, and I promise you I won’t miss anything.”

  Tears start flowing from my eyes and before I know it, I’m in Connor’s arms, and he’s holding me so tight, telling me everything’s going to be okay. I forget about my fears and doubts and finally relax in the arms of the man I love.

  I wake up and slowly stretch my arms, feeling so much better. My body is pretty sore from my multiple orgasms last night. Closing my eyes, I think about last night and start smiling like a fool. Riding him and feeling his hands all over my body, him gripping my hair and pulling back, mmmm, so sexy.

  I turn over on my left side and see Connor on his phone. It means so much to me that he sits there and watches me. I love this man so much, and I can’t wait to be his wife and start our lives with our baby. “Hi.”

  He looks up and smiles. God, his smile can make me weak in the knees. “Hi, baby. How you feeling?”

  “Better.” I sit up on the bed and reach out for him. I wrap my fingers around his shirt and bring him down to me. Our lips meet, and at first, it’s slow and seductive but I want more. I need more. The sensation of want and need for Connor builds inside me. I pull him down on top of me as I push up my chest to his. He grasps my waist tightly, and all I want is to feel him. “I need you, Connor.”

  A low groan escapes his lips. I gaze into his beautiful eyes as he slowly pulls off my tank top revealing my breasts. He licks his lips and brings his mouth to my nipple while playing with the other with his fingers. My breathing goes crazy with each suck. I bite my lip and close my eyes. The pleasure is too much, but I still want more. His free hand moves down my body and into my cotton shorts.

  “Tell me why you’re so wet, baby.” He smiles, going to my other nipple and playing with my clit with his fingers. He rubs it softly making me moan and screaming his name.

  I hook my fingers in his hair, urging him for more. “Because of you,” I moan. “Inside me now Connor. Please!”

  Connor pulls down his sweat pants, releasing his impressive erection. My eyes drink in the sight before me. I can’t ever get enough of his huge dick. He notices me staring, and smiles. Without saying anything, he spreads my legs and thrusts himself into me. I scream and beg him for more.

  “Connor! Harder! Yes, please! Fuck me!”

  He thrusts deep inside me. “Keep your eyes open, baby. I want to see you come.”

  “Connor. Don’t. Stop. Keep. Going!” I look into his eyes as he pumps faster and harder into me. He sits up straighter and pulls me closer to his body. I feel his hardness hitting the spot and making me close to coming. He slides his hand on my clit and rubs me fast. “Oh my God! Don’t stop!” I love everything he’s doing to me, and I don’t’ want him to stop. Connor’s dark eyes hold me captive. His cocky smile grows wider.

  “Baby, come with me. Now!”

  We come at the same time, and I swear I feel everything beneath me move. We both cry out in ecstasy from the amazing pleasures of our lovemaking. Connor falls next to me and wraps his arms around me. “I love you so much, baby.”

  I let out a giggle as his kisses trail from my cheek to my neck. “We love you too, Connor.” He rubs my stomach and smiles his stunning smile that makes me weak and breathless. My heart thuds against my ribs as I stare into Connor’s eyes. I’ve been let down so many times and thought love wasn’t for me until Connor. And now we have forever together.

  We finally get out of bed and get ready for the day. It’s Sunday today, so we’ll be having our usual Sunday dinner at Sophia’s dad’s house. Connor seems relaxed as he watches me get ready. He stares lovingly at my belly, and I gently touch it. I love the way he looks at me. I love that we created our baby, and I can’t wait until we’re be able to hold him or her in our arms. I look down and smile. “We love you so much,” I whisper.

  Walking down the spiral stairs, hand in hand, and walk out the doors into the September air. Connor opens the car door for me and helps me in. I shake my head. It’s annoying how careful he is with me, but when we’re in bed, it’s a completely new story. He opens his door and climbs in. The car starts and Connor’s hand rests on my knee. I turn on the radio and ‘Just A Kiss’ by Lady Antebellum is on.

  “Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight,” I croon to my fiancé. “I love you, Connor.”

  “I love listening to you sing, babe.” Connor squeezes my knee and smiles. “To the moon and back.” He takes my hand and brings it up to his soft lips.

  We get to the Burns’ house and Connor rushes over to my side of the door and opens it for me. I take his hand and we walk to the back yard, together.

  Sophia comes rushing over to me and gives me a hug. “Hi!”

  I hug her back. I love my best friend and everything we’ve been through together has made our friendship stronger. “Hi!”

  Sophia lets me go and I see her red face. I give her a face and she laughs. “Come meet Vander.”

  Vander? It’s about time I meet this new friend Soph mentioned.

  I look at Connor and he shrugs. We follow Sophia to the deck where Mr. Burns and Adam a
re at the grill talking and drinking beer. I nudge Connor and give him a smirk. I know he wants to be there with the guys. He gives me a quick kiss and jogs over. I turn to Sophia and wonder what she’s looking at, and then out of nowhere, I see a hot, tall, sexy guy walking from the pool house. He’s wearing cargo shorts and a white polo shirt. His muscles are beautiful and tight in all the right places. My mouth drops and Sophia looks at me smiling. We watch him walk… no, strut or better yet, glide toward us. I’m really not sure but it’s definitely not walking! He advances closer to us, and the smile on his face makes my panties twist in so many directions..

  “Hi,” he extends his hand out to me. “I’m Vander. Erin, right?”

  I nod yes. I can’t talk. This rarely happens.

  Snap out of it, Costella!

  Sophia loops her arm through Vander’s arm. “Yep, this is my best friend Erin. Vander, come help me bring out the rest of the food. Erin, ya coming?

  Vander opens the screen door for us and waits until we’re both in before coming in to help us. He starts getting the food and other necessities ready. “So Vander, how’s working with my dad?”

  A doctor? Oh my God! How old is this sexy beast? “Vander, you’re a doctor?”

  He smiles. “Not exactly. I’m pre-med, and Doctor Burns is my mentor.” He pops a carrot stick in his mouth, and my eyes go directly to his lips. “Oh, congratulations, by the way. Sophia told me the good news.”

  My eyes dart to my beautiful friend, and she laughs. “Yep, got my little one.”

  Vander strolls over to me and takes my hand. “Well, you’re a beautiful pregnant girl. I tell Sophia this all the time, but she never believes me.” He looks over at Sophia, winking.

  I know I’m engaged and pregnant, but honestly, who doesn’t like a little eye candy? I’m human! I know Connor looks and that’s fine with me as long as he doesn’t touch.
