I look around, trying to find the guy from earlier. At first, I didn't see him but then I found him. I frowned realizing that he and another girl were making out in a dark corner. Oh well.
"Hey." JP comes up.
"Hey" I smile at him feeling the alcohol go through me. I was already a little buzzed. So as I'm standing here looking up at him, I have all kinds of feelings running through my body. And of course, he knew it.
"Let's dance."
I grab his hand and follow him out to the dance floor. At first, we are just swaying to the music, not touching. I needed to feel his hands on me. I step closer to him just as he grabs my hands and pulls them up and around his shoulder so they were wrapped around his neck. We sway to the music looking at eac
It has been nearly 2 months since that night at the club. Ever since that night, JP has been coming to my house every weekend. Some weekends we just hang out with the kids and then other weekends, we are kid-free and you know what that means. You are probably wondering how the emotional part of this is going. That part is very complicated. Of course, we are catching feelings with all the time we spend together but I refuse to become dependent on any man again. I know at any minute JP or myself could meet someone. No, I'm not looking. Is he? That I can't tell you. I don't ask because I don't want to know.Alyssa has been staying with her dad and Kasey a good bit. She tells me all the time, "Mommy, I love you but I want to go to daddy's." What am I supposed to do? Tell her no. Tell her I want her here with me? I think she likes going over there so much because Kasey keeps her niece a lot.
"When are you just going to give in and be with him?" Becca asks as we are sitting on the beach watching the guys and kids play in the water."I am with him. What do you mean?""Come on, Liv, you know what I mean. It's been a year and you still haven't given in to him.""I told all of you, I will do this on my own terms. Right now, I am enjoying what we have. I don't want to put labels on ... who is that girl?" I sit up looking out at this chick who currently had her hand on JP's arm.Becca sits up to look. She then smirks at me. "I don't know, but it shouldn't matter. Right?"I could feel the jealousy hitting hard as I sit back and try to act like it isn't bothering me.
"Good morning, Mrs. Price." I open my eyes to see JP lingering over me.I smile at him, "Good morning, Mr. Price."Flashback to the beach" I don't want to push you. I know what you said about us. I know you said no labels. But Liv, I don't want anyone else but you. We hand out. We go out. We have amazing sex." He stops and turns me so that I am looking at him. "We do everything that a couple does. Hell, we even have two children who are like sisters to each other. McKayla loves you. Alyssa loves me. Why can't we just make this official? I'm not asking you to become dependent on me. I know you can handle yourself. I know that better than anyone else. I love you, let's get married."
It has been almost 9 months since JP and I announced to our best friends and my parents that we were married along with me announcing that I am pregnant. Surprisingly, they were super excited that I'm pregnant. JP was the happiest of all. We were both hoping for a little boy and guess what? I am having a boy.You are probably wondering how Will and Maggie felt about all of this. Let's just say we were both in court fighting for custody of our children. Of course, JP and I won all the way around. They had nothing on either one of us. Which there was nothing to have on us, to begin with. We are both fit parens plus we are married. Therefore we have the girls the majority of the time but we still let them go stay with their other parent. We are not the type of parents to keep them away from their mom/dad."Mommy! It's time to get up. Me, J
"Come on Liv. I promise you look fine.""I do not look fine. You have put me in this tight-ass dress that is showing too much for my own comfort.""What is too much about it? You have nice boobs. Showing cleavage is a good thing. I thought you wanted to hook up with someone tonight? And as for your ass. Girl, you are thick as hell. Those guys aren't going to know what to do when they lay eyes on you."Turning around looking at my reflection I frown. I'm not your average girl. I have long black hair that reaches my waist. My eyes are a bright shade of green. Tonight I am a little taller because of the heels I am wearing, but normally I barely reach 5'3 in height. As for this thickness that my best friend, Becca, is referring to.. well let's just say I'm fat. I have a big ass because of
Every time the door of the diner I worked in would open, I would turn my attention to it just to see if it was JP walking in. It had been a week since the party. I am not sure why I would expect him to find me, but part of me was hoping he would."Are you expecting someone?" Becca bumped her arm into me."What? Why would you ask that?""Oh come on, I have noticed how every time it opens you quickly look over.""I don't know what ... " just as I was trying to finish my sentence the door dings. I look over to see him standing there. He smiles as his eyes find mine."Oh my god... Olivia. That's who? You have been waiting to see JP?""W
After JP dropped me off at home that evening, I ran upstairs to call Becca."Hey girl!" She answers her phone almost immediately."Hey. I just got home. I just wanted to let you know I was alive." I laugh"Where did y'all go?""He took me to some little ice cream shop that's about 30 minutes from here.""Awe, that's cute. Did he try anything?""Surprisingly, no. He was cool the entire time. We asked each other questions for a while, but then it got awkward when we got on the subject of sex. He wanted to know why I was so touchy on the subject of sex.""Did you tell him?"
For the next week, JP kept calling my phone, coming by my job, and showing up at my house. The second week I didn't hear anything from him. Then three weeks later, on Friday, as I am walking out of my school, I see his truck and him leaning against it. I groan but I walk up to him and stop. I cross my arms over my chest and look at him. Other girls are walking by looking at us and whispering. Seems like a bunch of these girls knows exactly who he is. Great."What do you want JP? Why are you here? I thought maybe you finally got it through your head that I do not want anything to do with you.""Look, I'm sorry. I did the one thing I told you I wouldn't do. I didn't take up for you. I ruined your night. I don't deserve to even have you as a friend but I still want to be your friend. I'm sorry I'm such an asshole."
