Chapter 4
“Don’t you think you are overreacting a little too much?” Meg asked as she looked at Julie who was taking a large bite of her oatmeal.
“My husband told me that he is not going to sleep with me until he gets an ‘all clear’ from Dr. Solloway and there is no telling what she is going to tell him,” Julie answered.
Meg smiled and shrugged.
“Well, there is always something you can do about that,” she said as she grabbed the TV remote from Julie’s side and began flipping the channels. Julie looked at her as she took another bite.
“What are you talking about?” she asked.
Meg took a long deep breath. “Really? Do you want me to spell it out for you or something?” she asked. Julie shrugged and Meg rolled her eyes.
“Oral?” she said looking at her best friend. Julie felt her cheeks flush a bright crimson.
“Meg!” she said.
“Well, I had to say it outright. You were simply not getting it,” Meg said as she went on flipping through the channels.
“Well, right now I need a whole lot more than just oral,” Julie said in a
whisper, looking over her shoulder to make sure Consuela hadn’t heard her. “I don’t know what…maybe it’s the hormones but seriously I am as horny as…” she paused and shook her head. “I would screw three porn stars…at the same time,” she added in another whisper.
Meg smiled and nodded.
“I remember that feeling,” she said as she put the remote down on the table. “But you could take matters into your own hands too.”
“I need more than just an orgasm, thank you very much,” Julie said as her phone vibrated wildly on the couch next to her. She picked it up and looked at it, her eyebrow raised in confusion. “What the…this man has gone
completely insane!” she suddenly yelled as she dialed Steven’s number.
“What? What’s going on?” Meg asked looking at Julie who was now on her feet. She was pacing up and down as she held her phone to her ear. “I think you need to sit down, sweetie,” Meg said as she looked at her. She was
worried that perhaps Julie was getting too worked up, probably over nothing.
“Steven are you freaking kidding me? A nurse?” she asked when Steven finally picked up.
“Nurse? What nurse?” Meg asked as she looked up at Julie who was now ranting. Meg didn’t really hear both sides of the conversation but she heard enough to make out the fact that Julie was soon going to have a personal nurse staying over with her. And by the looks of things, she didn’t like the idea. “Sweetie…” Meg said again before she held Julie’s hand.
“Steven, this is not okay…I will not have this!” Julie said before she hang up. She threw her phone on the couch before she sat down.
“Stress levels need to be down, remember? Why don’t you just calm down,” Meg said as she rubbed Julie’s hand gently.
“I am trying to but I just can’t knowing that there is going to be someone in my house watching me like a hawk for…God knows how long,” she said as she ran her fingers through her hair. Meg smiled and shook her head.
“What? You are acting as if all this is amusing somehow,” Julie said as she looked at her.
“Well, it is if you are standing where I am,” Meg said with a smile. Julie looked at her and rolled her eyes before she sat down. “Come on, it is not as
bad as you make it seem. You will have someone waiting on you hand and foot. That sounds heavenly to me,” she said. Julie looked at Meg and shook her head.
“You don’t understand. Steven getting a nurse here means that I might not get back to work until I give birth. I don’t think he is only hiring her…or him for a few months,” she said.
“What makes you think that?” Meg asked as she looked into Julie’s eyes.
“Well, Steven and I have always had an insatiable appetite for each other. But now he won’t even touch me. Do you really think that he is going to leave anything to chance?” she asked. Meg raised an eyebrow and then
shrugged.
“You know what, just chill out and talk to him, have some alone time and then get laid for God’s sake because you are driving me crazy,” she said.
Julie shook her head and looked at her questioningly. “Yes, honey. You are driving me crazy. I mean, Steven cares about you and he went from not being able to have kids to a situation where he literally came home to being a potential father. You have to give him a break.”
Julie sighed. Meg was right. She was being irrational.
“But we will never be able to have any time alone ever again,” Julie said.
“And do you think when the baby comes things are going to get any better?” Meg asked. “This is your training manual. And I think it just began,” she added as she heard the doorbell. Julie sighed as she watched Consuela walk to the front door.
“Oh dear Lord,” she thought to herself as she looked at two men carrying in boxes of what she made out to be medicines. “Do I even need that much?” she asked in a low voice. She looked at Meg and shook her head. “I don’t think I can do this.”
“I wish someone had done this for me when I was pregnant,” she smiled. “Remember, this is about more than just you,” she added as she stood up.
“Where are you going?” Julie asked.
“I think your husband just got home. I need to make myself scarce for a few hours if not the whole day,” Meg answered before she gave Julie a quick hug.
“Leaving already?” Steven asked as he walked into the living room. There was a tall dark haired woman with him.
“If I stay any longer, I will be committing gross injustice to my apartment. Besides, my son is around this weekend so I have to go shopping. That boy eats like there is no tomorrow,” Meg said. Steven smiled.
“Growing pains,” he said. Meg shrugged. “This is Chloe. She will be staying with us for a while. Chloe, this is Meg. Part of the family.”
“Nice to meet you but I really have got to run,” Meg said with a smile as she quickly made her way to the front door.
Julie forced a smile as the two men walked towards the exit. There was a short hushed conversation between Steven and Chloe as the two men
walked past them. Julie stood up and walked to where Steven and Chloe were.
“Chloe this is my wife, Julie,” Steven said smiling. Julie looked at Chloe and forced out a smile once more.
“Nice to meet you. Can I get you anything? Water, coffee, tea?” she asked as she looked at Chloe.
“No, thanks. I just want to get settled in first,” she said.
“Consuela has your room all set up. I’ll go get her,” Steven said with a smile before he walked off. Julie looked at her new nurse and shook her
head.
“Would you like to sit down while you wait?” she asked as she led Chloe to the living room. “I’m sorry…I didn’t get a chance to straighten the place up. I didn’t know you…” she took a long deep breath as she sat down.
Chloe looked at her and smiled.
“It’s fine. There is no reason to go out of your way at my expense,” she said as she sat down. Julie looked at her and wondered what she was supposed to say. She wanted to yell out ‘I don’t need a nurse’ or something along those lines but she found herself tongue tied. “Listen, I looked at your medical file and honestly I am in awe. And I know that you might have your reservations but I can promise you, I am not here to tell you how to live your life. I’m just here to make sure that your baby gets a fighting
chance and that he or she gets to live,” she said. Julie smiled as her gaze fell to the floor.
“You know what, I’m really happy to hear that,” she said as Steven came back into the room with Consuela. She turned around and looked at Steven.
“Chloe, this is Consuela. She’ll show you to your room,” he said. Chloe looked at Julie and smiled before she walked away with Consuela. Steven took a long deep breath and walked to the couch before he took a seat next to her. He already knew that she was prepared to lash out at him. He had
even decided on what answers he would give first. There was no way she was going to just let him have it without hearing his part out. She looked at him and opened her mouth to speak but he was faster. “First, you have to hear me out,” he said quickly. She looked at him and crossed her arms on her chest.
“Okay. Go on,” she said as she looked at him.
“Baby, when the doctor told us that the chances of us ever being parents were slim, I admit that I was sad but I felt even worse when I saw how distraught you were. It was like having kids was your whole life and
thinking that you couldn’t have any was literally slicing you up inside,” he said. She looked at him and shook her head. “And then that day I came
home and you were acting all odd. I was stupid. I should have seen it…I mean, you always take wine with your dinner but that day you…” he paused and smiled before shaking his head. She looked at him and
wondered what he was trying to say. “That day, you made me the happiest man in the world and I was so worried that any little thing I did would put you and the baby in danger.” Julie’s heart softened. She had never seen this side of Steven. The soft side of him. “I will do anything and everything to make sure that baby comes into this world. And if that means getting you round the clock medical care, then that is exactly what I will do,” he finally said. She looked at him and smiled.
“That’s fine,” she said.
Steven gave her a questioning look. “What?”
“That was not what I wanted to talk about,” she said looking at him. “I wanted to talk about us. You and me,” she said.
Steven was even more surprised. “What about us?”
“Baby, I miss you…I miss us. I miss being intimate with you,” she said. He looked at her and shook his head.
“Baby, I can’t. I might hurt you.”
She shook her head and rolled her eyes at him. “That’s all bullshit and you know it.”
Steven looked at her and raised an eyebrow.
“What?” You know that you are the most important thing in my life, right?” he said as he looked at her. She took a long deep breath and shook her head. She was not really feeling like the most important…anything at that point. It was like her baby was now the only thing Steven thought about and it was not wrong. It’s just that she needed to know that having a family would not affect them as a couple.
“Baby, you treat me like a pariah,” she said. He looked at her and raised an eyebrow.
“A pariah? Isn’t that word a little too big?” he asked.
“No, that is exactly what I feel like…I dress up, get my hair done, put on sexy lingerie but you never even look at me like you want me anymore.”
“Why would you even think of that?” he asked as he looked at her.
“Because Steven, we haven’t had sex in God knows how long and even
when I initiate it, you look like watching a rugby game is more important.” Steven opened his mouth to talk but she put her hand up. “You don’t even like rugby,” she said matter of factly. She looked at him and brushed off a tear. “So, what? I’m supposed to wait for nine freaking months before I
suck you?”
He looked at her and shook his head.
“Baby, what if you have a miscarriage?”
“We are making love, Steven. Slow, sweet, passionate love. You are not screwing me into the bed or anything,” she said as she looked at him.
“There is no way you can guarantee that I won’t go hard on you. You know I can’t help myself, it simply just happens…like a weird force takes over or something,” he said. He shook his head and his gaze fell. “I just don’t want to hurt you, Julie,” he added in a small voice.
“Hurt me? Why would you hurt me?”
“I know that losing this baby would destroy you. I don’t want to see that happen,” he said as he held her hands in his. She looked into his eyes and nodded. She then stood up and pulled him to his feet before she guided him to the bedroom. “Baby, please…what are you doing?” Steven asked as she pulled him to the master bedroom.
“Do something for me, Steven,” she said when they got to the bedroom. “Just follow my lead,” she said in a low voice as she shut the door behind
them. She held his face in her hands as she looked into his eyes. She took a step forward and brushed her lips against his slowly, making him exhale
deeply. She pulled away from him and slowly began undoing the buttons on his shirt.
“Juelz…” he said again. He wanted to stop her but somehow, he let her
continue. She looked up at him when she undid the last button and slowly pushed it off his shoulders. Her eyes never left his as she ran her hands
across his chest. Feeling his skin under her fingers was a simple thing but it felt heavenly. She leaned in and kissed him again. She deepened the kiss as she sought out his tongue. She let her hands slip down to his waist and then to his belt. “Julie…what are you…” he said when he felt her unbuckle his belt.
“Follow my lead, baby. Just follow my lead,” she said as she pushed his pants off. She looked at him and gently caressed the bulge in his pants. Steven moaned softly and closed his eyes as she pushed off his boxer shorts revealing his big erect cock. She pushed him down on the bed and knelt in between his legs as she took his cock in her hand. She stroked him slowly
as she felt him getting harder in her hand. His eyes were closed as he felt the warmth of her hand engulfing his manhood. She slowly lowered her head and took him into her mouth. Steven gasped and moaned when he felt her hot mouth all around his cock. The way she was bobbing her head on his cock was almost too much for him. He was trying as hard as he could not to thrust into her mouth. She took his cock deep in her throat and then pulled her head away from him. She did this over and over until she felt her mouth getting full. He was cumming in her mouth. She sucked him as deep and as hard as she could, draining him of everything. She released him and dabbed the sides of her mouth before she got off the bed.
She quickly stripped down and got back on the bed. Steven looked at her as she straddled him. He was not so sure what she intended to do with a flaccid cock but he surprised even himself when he touched his cock and began stroking it. He was slowly getting harder and so soon after such a powerful orgasm. She looked at him as she went on stroking him, getting him harder with every stroke. She smiled when she saw that he was fully
erect. He was looking up at her as she lowered herself onto his waiting
cock. She entwined her fingers with his and bit her lower lip as she closed her eyes. He watched her cheeks flushing with desire as she rocked her hips
slowly on him. He slowly used his thumb to caress her hard nipple making her moan in pleasure. He was moaning as he caressed her invitingly smooth skin. She suddenly pulled him up and he slipped a hand around her waist pulling her close. He was slowly rocking his hips, meeting her own. He filled his hand with her breast and she bit her bottom lip as she felt her orgasm approaching. She looked at him and felt a shiver go through her body. This was it. She was cumming. She held on to him as he struggled to push himself into her tightening pussy. She let out a moan when she felt him smack her ass as she finished. It was one of the most fulfilling things
she had ever felt. He moaned softly when he felt her legs release their grip around his waist. She looked down at him as she panted and smiled.
“Following your lead sure is awesome,” he said in a whisper. She laughed and nodded.
“I told you so,” she said in a soft voice. She kissed him softly and rolled off
his hips before collapsing on the bed. She looked at him as he held her close.
“I have never wanted you as much as I want you right now,” he said in a low voice. She smiled and shrugged.
“I think we need to pace ourselves, Davenport. I am literally carrying your future inside me,” she said. Steven laughed and pulled away from her. She watched him as he held her knees and slowly spread them exposing her still wet pussy to him.
“I never said I wanted to be inside you,” he said as he got in between her legs. “All I said was that I wanted you,” he added as he lowered his head
and engulfed her pussy with his mouth. She moaned and closed her eyes as she felt him kissing her and licking her. Having him pay this much attention to her was almost too good…satisfying…erotic.
