Taking One for the Team (The Team #1)

CHAPTER SEVEN

"Hey, Sexy." I purred.

"Who is this?"

I scoffed, "Your joking, right, it's me, Ashley."

He sighed, sounding annoyed. "Ashley, lose my number, I've lost yours." And he hung up.

I heard the tell-tale click that meant he diconnected the call but I couldn't believe it. What's wrong with those boys today? Does he think he can resist me now that he has a play toy? I'll show him.

I hurridly got dressed and went to find the spare key to Alex's house that I stole the last time I was there.

I drove to his place in my hot pink mercedes and stripped. Leaving pieces of my clothing, except the thong, to lead him to his bedroom. From there, I laid out on the bed and waited.

Alexander

"Do you have to go?" I asked again.

Renee sighed and turned her head to face me. "I do." She said, "I took all yesterday off so I have to at least show my face today." She turned back around to look at herself in her wide bathroom mirror.

I wrapped my arms around her, resting my large hands on her belly. I snuggled my face into her neck, taking in her sugary scent. "I don't want you guys to leave." I emphasized the 'you guys' by rubbing circles on her lower stomach where she told me the baby rested.

Covering my hands with her own, "I know, I don't wanna be away from you either."

We stood in front of the mirror swaying back and forth, her eyes closed, my eyes resting on the reflection of her stomach in the mirror. Our moment was interrupted when her phone began to go off, playing some sweet melody. "Ugh, it's probably Me'shell, wondering if I'll make it in today." She tried to leave my arms to retrieve her phone.

"Tell her you won't be in." I said as I kept her in the circle of my arms.

Renee turned around to face me, eyes in a squint. "You can't possibly be this attached to me. We just met like yesterday!"

I pulled her back into my body, this time her front to my front. "I don't care how long I've known you. This feels right and I'm not gonna waste time just because of how long we've known one another."

She leaned up on her tip toes and kissed my mouth. When she pulled back her smiled.

I released her and followed as she headed into her bedroom.

"I don't wanna waste time either. But I need to know that you'll be here for the baby. Not because of how you feel for me but that if you plan to stick around and your there for the birth you'll never leave her, you'll be her dad no matter what." She teared up as she spoke and her voice because husky due to her throat clogging.

"This is my baby. Our baby. I'll be there for him or her no matter what happens to us.

"Thank you." She wiped her eyes, laughing with relief.

"That out of the way, get to work. We're having dinner at my house and I expect you yo spend the night so get be packed and at my house by 6:30."

"Yes, Sir." She saluted. "Text me your address."

"Will do."

I smacked her ass as she walked ahead of me out the front door and she squeaked with surprise. I could get use to this. "Bye, Baby." I rubbed her belly. "Bye, Little Guy."

"Or girl."

"Or girl." I chuckled.

I pulled her to me for one last kiss before opening her car door for her and watching her pull away. I followed suit and headed to my house.

I'd normally park in my garage and head inside from there, but this is a pit stop, I still have to go to my sister's place for an easy recipe and then to the store for the ingredients.

Opening the front door to my home, I immediately noticed the female clothes creating a path to my bedroom. I silently walked back outside and closed the door. Once there I pulled my Galaxy s5 from my back pocket and dialed Matthew who answered on the second ring. "What's up, Man?"

"I don't know. I just got home and found your girl's clothes litering my floor. I think she's in my room but I'm not going in there. I'm waiting outside my house, how fast can you get here and take her home?"

"The fuck is she naked in you house for?!"

"I don't know but you better calm the fuck down!" My response was met with silence. "I just came back from my girl's house and saw Ashley's clothes on the floor. I didn't know she was here because her car is nowhere in sight. So I walked my once happy ass back outside, angry as shit mind you, and called you. I'm not going back inside until she's gone so I suggest you hurry the hell up and get this bitch out of here so I can walk inside my damn house!"

I disconnected the call and paced in front of my car, scrubbing my face with my hands.

This is a bunch of bullshit.
