“What are you doing here? I told you last night after you made a stink at the field he was not going with you tonight.”
He crosses his arms over his chest. “He did his weigh-in, now he can come with me.”
“Why are you doing this?” I point around the field. “These are his friends. This is where he wants to be, and his team hasn’t been announced yet. The event isn’t over for another two hours.”
He shrugs his shoulders. “I don’t give a fuck. You complained I wasn’t seeing my kid, now I’m here to pick him up and you won’t let me see him.”
“That’s because you’re embarrassing him and pulling him from his events. Not to mention you’re only doing this because I’m seeing Jesse.” I stand my ground, but he steps closer and gets in my face.
“That is my son,” he growls through gritted teeth.
“Were you worried about your son when you left us high and dry to fuck Melinda?”[25]
Jesse comes running over and steps between us. “What the hell is your problem, man?”
“This is between Karen and me,” he growls.
“Not anymore. I told you she’s my girl now and unlike you, I defend what’s mine. I thought I already made that clear.”
Jason comes over looking between the three of us, sweat pouring down his scared face. “Mom, what’s going on?”
Jesse steps in to protect Jason if need be. He looks him in the eye. “Jason, do you want to stay here for the rest of the party or go with your father?”
He looks down at the ground. “Sorry, Dad, but I want to stay. We haven’t even been announced as a team yet.”
Brian looks angry, but now Trystan, Blake, and Derek are all standing around Jason protectively. “Fine, stay. You’ll eventually see that Jesse’s nothing more than a loser who couldn’t make it to the pros.”
Jesse laughs. “I made it farther than your sorry ass did. I played for Army. What did you do? I know you weren’t selected to play college ball.”
“Enough. You’re embarrassing us,” I demand.
Brian sneers, “You were always an embarrassment. Why do you think I left?” Poor Jason is on the verge of tears when Trystan and Blake finally tell him to leave or they will have him physically removed. Brian laughs. “See you at the games.” He turns and leaves. Half the field has stopped to watch the altercation that took place.
Jesse kneels in front of Jason and everyone backs away to give us some space. “Listen, Jason. Your father is angry that your mom has moved on. He doesn't mean the things he says. You’re a great kid, and you can’t let him get to you.”
Jason’s fighting back his tears, flexing his hands into fists at his sides. “Want to go for a walk?” I ask, but he shakes his head.
That’s when Gabe comes over. “Dude, was that guy your father?” Gabe sees the hurt on his face. “Dude, don’t stress him. This is our day. Come on.” Gabe puts a fist up and they bump. Jason hasn’t fully recovered, but he’s getting there.
“Thanks.” Jason gives him a small smile.
“Don’t worry about him. Go have some fun,” I encourage. Gabe puts his arm over Jason’s shoulder, and they walk off together. I can’t help but wonder what they’re talking about, but they both laugh and that’s when I know he will be okay.
As soon as he’s out of earshot everyone asks me if I’m okay, and suddenly my body starts to tremble. The adrenaline I used to get through that no longer exists, and I’m now a bit of a wreck. “I can’t believe he did that.”
“Me either, but we have to figure something out because if this is how he’s going to be, I’m going to put a restraining order on him through the league, and he won’t be allowed at the field,” Jesse warns me.
“I’m going to call my lawyer on Monday morning and let her know what’s been going on so she can handle it. He shouldn’t be able to just show up and demand to take his kid whenever he feels like it.”
“I agree, babe, but you’re right; you need to let your lawyer handle this. Clearly he is pissed that you’ve moved on.”
We hear a whistle blow and then Mike calls the coaches to grab their teams. “Go. I’ll be fine.”
“Yeah, we’ve got her,” Stella says, and the guys run off to gather the team.
“Listen, like you told Jason, today is about the boys. Forget him. There’s nothing you can do about it right now anyway,” Lori suggests.
I nod because I know she’s right, but it’s hard to get past his venom. You were always an embarrassment. Why do you think I left? I look down at my body, the body that Jesse worships, and I wonder what he sees in me.
“Come on, let’s go over here so we can watch the boys come out.” Misty pulls me from my thoughts, and we all move to the entrance where we were told the boys will come out.
“Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen,” Michelle announces over the mic. “I would like to thank you all for being here today. As you know, our boys and girls have been working really hard to get ready for next weekend’s season opener which will be played right here on our home field.” Everyone claps and cheers. “Now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for…” she pauses and the doors open. “First up we have our Tiny Mights and Mighty Mights cheer squad.”
The girls all come skipping out and waving. I see Grace and can’t help but smile. She looks so happy. She waves to me and runs off with the rest of the girls. Michelle continues announcing the cheer squads and then moves on to the teams. As each team is introduced, their team song plays in the background as the title is announced.
When she finally gets to the Junior Peewee, we all wait with anticipation. “Next we have our Junior Peewee division.” They will be introduced to DJ Khaled All I Do Is Win. The music starts playing, and the boys all come out dancing. The coaches are bobbing their heads, and we all start to laugh. Our guys look so funny trying to be cool with the boys, but the boys couldn't care less. They are thrilled with the choice of music.
They continue introducing the teams, and when they’re done they announce the raffle winners from the ticket sales they did during registration. Misty and Briggs are lucky enough to win the grand prize drawing of $200.
The remainder of the event goes smoothly, and a lot of people stick around to help us clean up when it’s all said and done. There was so much pizza left over we don’t need dinner for tonight because we were handed four boxes to take home. Thank God, because I’m exhausted and I need to save my energy. My man has made me a promise, and I plan on holding him to it.
I love that the house is quiet and we have it to ourselves. Now to take complete advantage of the situation. I creep down under the blankets and seat myself in between her legs. Pulling her panties to the side, my tongue splits her folds finding her nub. I suck it into my mouth, her hips instantly move, and I hear the hiss coming from her beautiful mouth.
“Jesse, what are you doing? The kids,” she moans in a hushed whisper.
I pull the blankets down so she can see me. “What kids? The house is empty, and I plan on using the time wisely.” I wink and return to my task. I kiss the inside of her leg before I devour her warm, wet pussy. Her delicious essence is running down her ass, and I have no desire to miss out. I lap it up, slipping my tongue inside her pussy fucking her with it. She’s struggling to maintain control, her hands pulling at the blankets as she’s on the verge of her first orgasm. Her hips buck and my name rolls off her tongue. “Jesse.” The sound goes straight to my cock causing it to twitch, but as much as I want to be buried inside of her I’m not done tasting her yet.
I look up at her from between her legs. “Ready for another.”
“Yes, come bury that cock of yours inside me.” She bites her lip bashfully. I’ve never heard her speak like that.
“In due time, beautiful. I need you to give me one more first.” Her eyes go wide, but when my tongue connects with her sensitive bud, they roll back and her head hits the pillow. I attack her clit, sucking it into my mouth and rolling my tongue over it while my fingers fuck her, hi
tting that sweet spot deep inside of her. She’s panting and rolling her hips.
“Jesse, I can’t…” Her words trail.
“Can’t what? Come?” I question. “Damn straight you will because I’m not stopping until you give me another.” My tongue connects with her clit causing her to hiss. I continue to lick her hard and fast. I know she’s close, her muscles are tightening around my fingers. I curl them inside her hitting that spot. It’s just what she needs. Her muscles tighten around my fingers and her legs begin to shake around my head, but I don’t let up until she’s screaming my name and begging me to stop.
“What’s wrong, love?” I climb up her body.
She pants, letting out slow, deep breaths, trying to calm herself. “That was amazing.”
I smile. “I’m not done.” Looking into her eyes, I slip my cock inside her and roll my hips. There’s so much I want to say, but I’m scared; not to admit my feelings for her, but afraid I’ll freak her out. Continuing my gentle thrusts, I rub my nose over hers, and our lips connect. She closes her eyes the second our tongues meet. I slowly pick up the pace, her thrusts meeting mine. I can’t help my feelings for her. I’ve always felt this way about her. “I need one more, beautiful.”
She wraps her legs around my waist and changes the angle slightly. It’s all she needs. Her muscles tighten around my cock, sending me over the edge.
I press my forehead to hers, staring into her eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Damn this woman can read me. “I love you.”
A small smile plays at her lips. “So why do you look so concerned?”
“Because I’m praying that doesn’t freak you out.”
She shakes her head. “Not one bit.”
“Good, because I think I’ve always loved you.” I press my lips to hers.
“Jesse…” Her words trail. She looks scared.
“Shhh.” I kiss her again.
The second I pull away, her words come out in a rush. “I love you too.” A tear runs down her cheek. “I hate that I didn’t listen to you. I put Jason and me through so much.”
“Baby, we have each other now, and that’s all that matters.” I lie beside her, running my fingers through her hair. “Our kids are amazing, and there’s nothing that says we can’t become a family when the time is right.”
“Do you want that?”
I smile. “Of course. Now that I have you, I have no intention of letting you go.”
She lets out a slow, steady breath. “I’m not sure if I should be relieved or scared.” She chuckles.
“How about we take it one day at a time?”
“Sounds good. What’s on the agenda for today?”
“Mom is out with the kids. They are going to go play a few rounds of mini golf and then she is taking them for lunch. That means you and I have some time to ourselves. We can do whatever you want.”
“I think we should start by moving this party to the shower.” She wiggles her brows at me.
“I like the way you think.” I scoop her up off the bed and carry her to the bathroom. I think it’s time I show her how fun my shower can be. I set her down on top of the counter. “Wait right here.”
“Damn, this is cold.”
“Sorry,” I say with laughter as I turn on the water ensuring that all the heads are on. When I’m happy with the settings, I pull her shirt over her head. Lowering my lips, I suck her hardened nipple into my mouth. She arches her back, pressing her beautiful breasts to my face. My cock is already begging for more, but I don’t want to take her here. My lips crash down on hers as I scoop her up and carry her into the shower, the multiple heads soaking us instantly. I set her down on the bench where a head is shooting water at her back. She looks confused until I grab the removable one and squat before her. “Open those legs for me, baby.”
There’s a button on this one that changes the pressure. I click it until I find the right setting. It hits her nipple causing her to flinch. I smile knowing she's in for a treat. I lower my lips to her nipple, sucking it into my mouth. Her head rolls back as I lick and suck my way across the valley between her beautiful plump breasts. I suck the other into my mouth, this time using the jet to hit that spot between her legs. She thrusts her hips forward and whimpers at the sensation. “Fuck, Jesse.” She opens her legs wider. “I need you to fuck me.”
I press my lips to her neck just below her ear. “In due time, baby.” I suck her earlobe into my mouth, kissing down her neck, through the valley of her breasts, and over her stomach all while water pulses over her sensitive bud. When I get down to her mound, I find her legs spread beautifully wide for me. I know by the way she’s squirming she’s close, so I replace the water with my tongue, slipping it deep inside of her. The water is now hitting her hard nipple and running down her body as my thumb rolls over her clit.
“Holy shit, Jesse.” Her legs clamp shut around my neck as her body thrashes from the intense orgasm that’s shredding her body. When she settles, her grip loosens and she starts to laugh. “I’m sorry. Are you okay?”
“Why do you ask... is it maybe because you just tried to choke me with your legs?” I laugh. “I can see the headlines now. ‘Man dies giving girlfriend orgasm’.”
She laughs. “That’s not funny and if it was that painful, maybe you should’ve backed off.”
“Hell, no. You taste amazing.” My lips crash down on hers. “It’s a good thing my cock is aching because I could go for more.”
Her eyes go wide. “I’m not sure I can handle more.”
I hold up my finger. “One more.” I stand her up and take the seat she was just in. She turns around so her back is to my front and then lowers herself onto me. She leans back against my chest. I grab her breasts and roll my hips. “Ride me, baby.”
She places her hands on my knees, lifts her ass, and slams herself down on my cock as I lift my hips meeting her thrust. God, we are so in sync with one another. We find our rhythm and keep the pace until her pussy clenches around my cock causing me to shoot deep inside of her. She collapses against my chest. “I’m spent, Jesse.”
I chuckle and reach up for the body wash I bought her. Squirting some into my hands, I rub them together creating a lather; running my hands up her stomach to her breasts, taking special care to massage them. Her nipples perk up, ready for more.
Leaving one hand on her breast, I slowly work my fingers down the front of her body to her clit. She flinches causing my cock to twitch. “Jesse,” she says with laughter. “Are you trying to kill me?”
I laugh. “Not at all. Just making sure I leave you satisfied.” I kiss below her ear. “I want you to think about me and miss me all week long, because Lord knows I miss you.”
She turns her head, and our lips connect in another heated kiss. “I do miss you, don’t ever think differently.” She presses her lips to mine and then stands, leaving me wanting more. I know it’s crazy since I just took her twice and gave her multiple orgasms, but I’m not kidding when I say I can’t get my fill of her. She looks over her shoulder. “Get over here and wash my dirty body.” She winks.
“Yes, ma’am.” I jump up and grab the body wash to continue washing her. “What should we do?”
She shrugs. “I don’t know. It’s Sunday and there’s really not much to do other than get ready for work this week.”
“How about I make you some breakfast, then we can just chill on the couch and be lazy.”
“Sounds good. I have a book I need to finish.”
When we finish cleaning up, we both throw on some comfortable clothes and head downstairs. I grab some veggies and egg whites from the fridge. “Do you have plans next Saturday night?”
“No.” She looks at me with her hands on her hips. “Jesse, I didn’t make plans before I started seeing you. Why would I make them now?”
I shrug. “Just checking.”
“Why?”
“We’re going dancing.”
Her brows shoot up. “Dancing?” she questions.
�
��Yes, I remembered how much you used to love to go dancing, so I arranged with Mom that she will be here with the kids while we go out.”
Her brows furrow. “Do kids include mine?” she asks with sass. “I don’t leave my kid with too many people.”
I step to her. “Of course it does. I wouldn’t make plans for us and not arrange something for Jason too.”
She closes her eyes and looks away, but I’m not having it. I lift her chin and force her to look at me. “I’m sorry, Jesse.”
“What’s this attitude for?” I keep my tone gentle.
“We’re just moving a million miles an hour, and I meant it when I said I love you, but I can’t forget Jason in this.”
I shake my head. “I would never forget him. He’s a good kid, and my kids adore him as do I.”
Her hands glide through my beard and around my neck. She pulls me down and our lips meet, instantly opening as our tongues connect. We’re like teenagers again, we can’t seem to keep our hands off one another. She pulls back. “You’re burning our breakfast.”
“Fuck.” I hurry over to the stove to rescue our veggies and barely make it. “I think I saved it.”
“Actually, I think it was me who saved them, but I’ll let you tell your story.” She winks at me and grabs some plates for the table. I chuckle and finish making our breakfast.
We’re both snuggled up on the couch, our legs a tangled mess. Jesse is running his fingers through my long dark hair while I try to read this book. I say try because he makes it difficult to focus. We’ve been lying here for over an hour now, and I haven’t even managed to make it through one chapter. I have to keep reading the paragraph over again because I get distracted. As much as I need to get this done, he is the best distraction there is.
A short time later the kids come walking through the door carrying bags of food from the grocery store. It appears Josephine was brave enough to take three children to the store with her. Jesse and I jump up to help her. “Mom, why didn’t you bring the kids home if you were going to the store?”
She chuckles. “I wanted you two to enjoy some time together, but I can tell you I will never do that again. I love them, but Lord help me that was a mistake.”
