Amara POV
…..
Sitting up on the bed I sit there in confusion.
What the hell just happened? Does Dimitri have feelings for me?
He was always having sex with a different girl in high school. He can’t have feeling for me. Sure he was always overprotective but I don’t think he actually likes me more than that..
I let out a sigh as I slowly get up off the bed and leave the random bedroom. Walking down the hall I go into the living room where Liam and Lucia are at.
I smile when I see Sadie sitting on the floor playing with Legos with Lucia and Liam sitting in the floor with her. They were helping her build a little house.
Listening to her babble as she hands Liam a Lego block I can’t help but be happy. She is using her words and communicating with them before she would just cry or want me all the time.
” Thank you, Now were are we putting it? here?” Liam asked holding it to the left side of the building.
Sadie giggles and shakes her little head, ” Nooooo.” She says as she points towards the middle of the structure.
” Okay, in the middle it goes.” Liam says as he places the Lego in the middle and pushes down until it clicks together.
Sadie giggles and babbles some more to them. ” Thank you for watching her.” I tell them.
They both stare at me and smile. ” It wasn’t a problem. However don’t try running off again Dimitri will rip Detroit apart to find you. He will also kill anyone that gets in his way.” Liam says giving Sadie a teddy bear that he took out of a Target bag.
” Not to mention we will kill to find you and her.” Lucia tells me in a stern tone before speaking again. ” What the hell were you thinking when you got in a car with two strangers!? Were you trying to put her in danger?!” Lucia adds as he raises his voice.
” I was thinking about getting her out of the cold. Those guys didn’t seem dangerous and I wasn’t getting a bad vibe from them. Also don’t raise your voice you will scare Sadie.” I tell him through gritted teeth in a calm tone.
” You weren’t getting a bad vibe!? Are you fucking kidding me!?” Lucia whispers yells at me.
Yeah, that probably wasn’t the best argument or a good thing to say out loud cause now I am hearing how dumb I just sounded.
” Well, I wasn’t!” I whisper yell back.
Lucia laughs and shakes his head, ” Unbelievable…” He says as he gets up and just leaves the room.
” He right, that was very stupid. You or Sadie could have been hurt or worse killed.” Liam tells me softly.
” I get that I took a risk trusting strangers but Dimitri was the one that grew his gun in a diner with Sadie sleeping next to me in the booth.” I point out to him.
” He had a silencer on the gun. If he shot those dumbass’s in the diner It wouldn’t have woke her up.” Liam says as he stands up.
I look at him in disbelief. ” It doesn’t matter if a silencer was on the gun. He was actually going to shoot people in front of her.”
Hearing Sadie babble happily I watch as she clings to Liam’s leg. He leans down and picks her up placing her on his hip.
” Yes, you are right he will kill in front of her. So if you don’t want her exposed to stuff like that I suggest you stop trying to run away.” Liam says as he starts to carry Sadie off.
They really aren’t the same boys I knew back in high school. They have changed so much in these past six years but I know they won’t hurt me or Sadie. However I don’t won’t Sadie traumatized by having people killed in front of her but I think he is bullshitting me. I doubt they would actually expose her to something that would traumatize her considering how they quickly took her out of the diner.
Following Liam as he walks out of the living room. ” Where are you going?”
” Looks like I am heading towards the kitchen to feed the baby.” Liam says in a duh type tone.
What a smart ass!
Rolling my eyes as I fold my arms across my chest. ” If you give her to me I can feed her.” I tell him watching as he pulls out a small bowl of baby food from the refrigerator.
He stares at me, ” She is old enough to start eating people food.”
” I know that Liam but my boobs hurt cause I have too much milk in them!” I blurt out and quickly put my hand over my mouth as I feel my face get warm.
Damn it!! I wasn’t meant to say that out loud.
Liam stares at me in surprise before he starts laughing. Which causes Sadie to start laughing along with him.
” It’s not funny! Now give her too me.” I say holding out my arms to my daughter. Only for Liam to shake his head, ” No, go pump the milk out of your tits. She is eating baby food.”
I glare at him as I watch him place Sadie in her highchair and straps her in. Sadie giggles and wiggles around in her seat excitedly.
She does seem very excited to have people food I guess I could still pump the milk into baby bottles and give it to her for bed.
” Fine.. but you are also changing her diaper since I am going to go pump.” I tell him as he just waves me off.
I swear they are worse than my mom.
A bunch of baby stealers.
Walking out of the kitchen I head up stairs to my room. Once inside I dig around in a few boxes before finding my breast pump. I dig around for another few minutes before I find the clean baby bottles. I place the breast pump and baby bottles on the bed while I kick my shoes off into the floor. Taking my jacket and shirt off I toss them into the floor next to my shoes before getting on the bed.
I hook the bottles up to the beast pump before I take my bra off.
Giving my breast a gentle rub I relax a little.
Man, my boobs are sore as hell getting rid of some milk will help not to mention that bra was freaking killing me.
Placing the suction cups on both my breast I make sure it is sealed correctly on both sides before switching on the machine and turning on the tv.
I let out a sigh of relief and close my eyes as milk starts filling both bottles.
I was so relaxed and relieved that the tightest in my breast was slowly fading that I didn’t hear my door being opened.
” Well, this is a nice sight.” A voice says causing me to snap my eyes open and stare at Dimitri.
He was leaning against my bedroom door with a shit eating grin on his face. I quickly cover myself up with a blanket and make sure I don’t bump the breast pump in the process.
” There’s this thing called knocking!” I snap at him.
” It’s my house I don’t need to knock.” He shoots back with that same shit eating grin.
Rolling my eyes I glare at him. ” You are still a pervert and last I checked this is my room! So you are invading my privacy!”
He lets out a chuckle, ” Still my house besides you are mine too.” He says bluntly.
My mouth drops open in disbelief. ” What do you mean I am yours?” I ask him.
Watching as he takes a step forward and walks over to the edge of the bed. ” You are mine to stare at. Mine to take care of and mine to do with as I please.” He says putting a lot of emphasis on the word ‘mine.’
” I am not something you own! And last time I checked we are just childhood friends!” I shoot back with a glare as I keep the blanket up over my breast.
” We are still friends until it becomes something more.” He says sounding so confident of himself. ” Either way you are still mine.” He adds with a grin.
” Did you take hits in the head or something?” I asked him confused.
He shakes his head, ” No, actually I didn’t. I was just stating a fact and I came to tell you that I was going to be gone for a few hours. So don’t do another disappearing act would hate to shoot a bunch of innocent people.” He tells me.
” That a threat?” I asked with a raised brow.
” Yeah, I guess it is.” He says as his grin that turns into a smirk before he walks out the door.
