Maria Hudson, a twenty three years old writer in New York. Jake Adrian Vance, twenty seven years old and One of the youngest Billionaire's in New York. It was just a one night stand, she wasn't supposed to get pregnant, but she did. I guess the stars did not align in her favour. ~~~~~ "When were you going to tell me, you are pregnant." Even though I have not heard him talk a lot of times I knew that voice. ~~~~~ "You are good with words, I will give you that. But I don't think I need to remind you that it's our unborn child binding us together and that does not mean we should be together together." "Why not?" He asked as he took the first bite of his cake. "Because." "'Because?" He promoted. "Because I am not attracted to you." I rolled my eyes at him. "You think?" "I know so." "Let's find out, shall we?" He smirked at me as he stared at me and then placed his plate of chocolate cake on a table.
View MoreCome on Maria," I heard Joe's annoying voice, my best friend and also my roommate, "let's go out today."
I sighed as I rubbed my temples with my hands. "Joe," I called as I turned to face her, only to see her sitting in a weird position on her couch, "we have been arguing about this for about two hours now. When are you going to give up?""Never!" She answered and then groaned.I rolled my eyes at her and then proceeded to stare at my laptop screen. I have been trying to continue the young adult story I have been writing since last year, all to no avail. When I type about two sentences and I re-read that particular sentences they look weird in my head and then that leads me to deleting them and ending up with a blank screen all over again."You have been staring at that screen for the past three hours and I am very sure you have not written anything." Well, that is partially true.I groaned as I shut down my laptop and then turned to face Joe again only to see her already staring at him with one of her finger eyebrow raised at me, "Fine. We will go to wherever you want. Only because I have not written anything in my book and because you're my best friend.""Yay!" She squealed and then stood up from the blue couch to drag me away from the dining table where I was trying to update my book. "Come on, come on, let's go get dressed. Plus you might see one hottie to have a shag with." She winked.I rolled my eyes at her excitement but followed her anyway. I don't know what I would do with her.About forty five minutes later we were both already dressed. I picked- well, Joe picked the cloth cause she said and I quote, "you look stunning and hot combined together." I was wearing a red backless gown that reached my mid thigh coupled with black heels and she also did my make up.Joe wore the same gown I wore only that her's was green and she was with a heavy make up, though it fitted her perfectly. Joe had a nice shape, she had large breasts and buttocks making the cloth look nice on her body. While I was the opposite of her. Slim with average breasts and buttocks. We were opposites in everything. We never preferred the same stuffs. While I liked orange juice she preferred apple juice and while I preferred not eating boiled egg she loved egg, any type. The list about our differences could go on and on."I look hot." She said to herself as she twirled at the front of the long lengthened mirror."Don't I?" She turned to me but before I could reply she said, "never mind. It was a rhetorical question." Making me chuckle.
"The amount of confidence you have in yourself surprises me."
I said as I put the necessary stuffs I needed into my black shoulder bag."Someone has got to do the praising." She winked at me through the mirror as I shook my head at her."Let's go!" She picked up her white purse from her bed as we both heard the horn of the taxi from outside. "Fun time!" Joe screamed it but she deepened her voice making it sound manly as we entered the taxi. I am very sure the man was so perplexed for both of us.The cab made a stop and we both got down from the cab but not before thanking him and paying him. "Neon lights." The huge sign board read as it glowed in the dark with pink and blue lights."I heard about it at work when some of my colleagues were talking about it. I heard it's a young guy, well, not really young, about our age that owns it." She told me as she was pulling me into the entrance of the club.We passed the long queue of people standing at the the front of a huge black guy, the bouncer, as they presented their ID.
"I thought you said this was your first time coming here." I shouted over the loud music playing and thankfully she heard me."I didn't say that," she shrugged as we both took a seat at the bar. "You just assumed it." she smirked at me.This woman."Uh, please four shots please." She smiled too sweetly at the bartender and he returned the smile with a forced one.Poor guy.
"Stop flirting with him." I said as I hit her arm when the guy was already out of hearing vicinity.She placed her perfect manicured hands on her chest and then gasped. "I was not!" She said in a fake British accent.I chuckled, "you definitely was flirting with him. He looks younger than us though."The guy came back and handed us our drinks and went back to attend to some other people but not before Joe gave him a wink, "I doubt that." She took a sip."Yes, he definitely is younger than us." I chuckled and drank my whole drink at once."Whoa! Calm down there tiger.""You brought me here to have fun, that's what I am doing." I grinned as I downed the next drink."Nice. I like this spirit." She grinned and also took another shot. After about five shots each I pulled Joe to the dance floor both of us giggling and dancing together, well, that was until I felt someone wrap his hands around my waist and I could feel the person's hot breath fanning my neck. But I was too drunk to even care and that was how I got sepereated from Joe."She is going to make you both late on your first day of school." My mom gave me a pitiful smile as she handed me a plate of sandwhich and coffee.I gave her a grateful smile and then shrugged, "it's not the first time she will make me late on the first day of school," I adjusted the huge frame of glasses, "or any other day for that matter." I took a bite from the sandwhich."Arielle! You're going to make your brother late!" My mom shouted as she placed another plate of sandwhich and coffee on the island."I'm coming! Almost done!" She shouted back.That's what she said ten minutes ago.My mom sighed as she rolled her eyes and then proceeded to wash the dishes. "That's what she said ten minutes ago." My mom muttered as she continued scrubbing the plate under the running tap.I laughed to myself, we just said the same thing.
CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVENI was still excited about the whole engagement when I woke up in the morning. I woke up with a huge smile on my face."Baby." He called when I kept smiling at my hand where my ring was placed."Hmm" I answered not looking up."We need to talk" This, caught my attention."Is something wrong?" He shook his head No, "Everything is great we just need to make some decisions before the dinner tonight." He explained."Ok. What is it?" I asked."When do you want us to get married?" He asked me."I honestly don't care. Anytime you're ready" I answered honestly."Tomorrow then?" He said. I laughed."Really? Jake" I was still laughing."Just kidding. I just want to make you my wife so fast. I can do it now if possible." He said. "Pick any da
CHAPTER FIFTY SIXThe drive home was really quiet because I didn't know what to say. This is not me. I hate this new person that I am becoming. I've never been the insecure type. Why did the thought of wearing a dress so beautiful terrify me? Maybe because I did not want to embarrass Jake for his meeting tonight. Very close to the house Jake placed his right hand on my thigh and gave me a gentle squeeze. I turned to find him looking at me.“You're beautiful love and I love every inch of you” God no. Does he know what I was thinking?“Thank you” I forced out not wanting to act like this anymore.“I had plans for dinner as a surprise but we will just eat in today” He confessed. So there wa no meeting. I smiled.“I appreciate it, Jake,” I told him.“You’re the best thing that ever happened to me” My cheeks grew redder each second he complimented me. &nbs
CHAPTER FIFTY FIVE“Shouldn't we call your mum to bring the kids?” I asked when I stayed in each other arms.“She has them for a week” He replied, the vibration of his thick, deep voice tickling my ears.“I didn't pack their bag for a week Jake” I groaned not liking the idea of my children not being with me for this long. This would be the first time this ever happened.“I’ll do that” He offered. I laughed and got away from him.“Thanks for the offer but you and I both know that you wouldn't be able to do that,” I said standing up to walk to the bathroom. I winced in pain. I quickly sat back down.“Fuck” I mutter realizing how sour I am.Jake moved closer to me and placed his hands on my shoulders.“A massage?”
‘’Really?’’ I asked trying so hard to hide my excitement from him.‘’Yes love’’ He answered with a smile. He drops his hands to my waist letting them linger on my butt. I did not say anything about this because I really did miss his touch and having so much of his time like this. It should not be like this but I guess that’s what having children can do to you. I smiled as I looked up at him.‘’I love you so much Maria’’ He whispered with a look of pride in his eyes. I blushed so had under his gaze.‘’I love you too’’ I said back to Jake.‘’No, tell me you love me’’ He begged. I chuckled at his request but obliged.‘’I love you’’ I said to him truly. I really miss this, having him in my arms and just being with each other.
Yes, it went badly. I was supposed to spend thirty minutes max, but no, the woman decided to keep me for an extra hour and theiry minutes. I spent two fucking hours! Two fucking whole hours sitting in a coffee shop, with an old woman who I haven't seen since I was probably five or six. Now imagine eeveything that has happened in here life since then. She decided it was just the right time to tell me everything that has happened in her life, her make son's life- who is about my age range and her grandchildren life.I exhaled loudly as I opened my car door and then got out of the car as I made my way back inside the house with the huge brown envelope. I brought out my phone from my back pocket and then dialed my mom's number as I entered into the elevator."Hey mom.""Maria! How are you?""I'm fine. I'm good. I already got your envelope." I rested against the wall of the elevator as I pressed the button to the top floor."Oh t
