direction. “I have to say, Jack. You’re a better man than I am.”
“Oh for sure,” he agrees with a straight face before letting out a chuckle. “Seriously though, y’all just take care of my girls and I’ll be good. You don’t? Well, eye for an eye.”
“Fair enough.”
Chapter Five
Sophie
After we leave the doctor’s office, I wonder if Chase’s face will ever go back to normal.
He insisted on staying with me, laughing when I told him his new obsession with watching me pee was getting out of hand. When the doctor came in a confirmed that I was approximately five weeks pregnant, I thought he was going to kiss her.
Apparently, the antibiotics I’d been prescribed for my pneumonia made my birth control pills ineffective. After a thorough exam and asking me everything under the sun, she assured me that both our baby and I appeared completely healthy. Due to my previous complications, she scheduled my follow-up appointment for two weeks away. After a congratulations and a bottle of prenatal vitamins, we were sent on our way.
Once we finally ate, Chase and I headed back to the hotel to switch into the larger room Drake had set up for us now that we had JT. After we got to the new room, I’d attempted to go with him to grab the rest of our things, but he’d refused.
“Just sit your pretty ass down and grow my baby,” he’d insisted before handing me a remote and pressing his lips to my hair.
Since he wouldn’t let me help him at all, it took a couple hours to get settled. Luckily, Jack had kept his promise and taken JT to see a movie and get ice cream so he wasn’t stuck in the middle of the chaos.
While I thought it would be uncomfortable to talk to Jack about the baby, I found that it wasn’t at all. When he dropped JT off at our new room hours later, he hugged me carefully and kissed me on the cheek.
“I always knew you’d be an amazing mother, my Beautiful Girl,” he’d whispered into my hair. “I’m so happy this is happening for you.”
When he pulled away from me and saw my teary smile, he gently wiped my cheek clean and told me he loved me.
After watching some television and getting JT settled into his part of the massive, two bedroom suite that made me and Ana’s old apartment look downright dainty, I yawn my way toward our room.
By the time I make it to our bed, I’m exhausted. The combination of the emotional day I’ve just had and everything that’s happened over the past few weeks sweeps over me as my head hits the pillow.
However, as I watch Chase make his way out of our bathroom in his boxer briefs, the ripple of muscles covering his abs mesmerizing me, I get a sudden burst of energy.
As he switches the overhead light off, he rests on the edge of the bed beside me and begins setting the alarm. As my fingertips trace the edge of the elastic that sits low on his perfect waist, I let out a ridiculously long yawn, causing him to grin.
“Yep,” he smirks, his gaze meeting mine as he throws me a playful wink. “I have that effect on all the ladies.”
“You better not be affecting any other ladies,” I manage, pinching him teasingly as he sets my phone on the side table.
Letting out my favorite deep chuckle, his large hand splays across my stomach as he stretches out beside me. Bending his head slightly, he brings his lips to mine, kissing me gently.
“Don’t be jealous, Baby,” he whispers against my mouth. “I’m just joking.”
“I’m not jealous,” I lie, returning his kiss and melting into the mattress as he moves his hand under the fabric of my tank top and begins lightly caressing my skin. “I don’t care about those dirty skank bitches.”
“That’s my girl,” he chuckles, his upturned lips moving slowly down my neck.
As he makes his way to his favorite spot at the arch between my neck and shoulder, he gently sucks, pulling a low moan from my chest. His hand moves up slowly before finding my heavy breast and running his fingertips
