I pace the length of the room and rub my belly. Maybe I should quit hiding and go downstairs. Sebastian is going to be here for a while, and I can’t avoid him forever. It just hurts that he rejected me, right after fucking me. I’m no slut, and that’s exactly how he made me feel.

In the bathroom I freshen up and smile at my reflection. My belly looks like I swallowed a volleyball. My reds shorts sit below my belly and show off my tan legs. My gray sleeveless tee is crop top style and shows off my belly. I put my hair into a braided ponytail, take a deep breath, and head downstairs.

Mom is sitting in the living room with Nicky watching Shrek, his favorite. He loves when the Ogre farts in the mud…boys. Of course, I always laugh along with him.

She smiles at me and I head into the kitchen to grab a bottle of water. I lean against the granite countertop and take a big swig from the bottle. Out the window above the sink, I see that Pete and Sebastian are talking while they stand next to the smoking grill.

I turn away and grab an orange out of the fruit bowl, peeling it. A moan slips past my lips as I pop a sweet, juicy piece into my mouth.

“Ahem.”

Whipping around I find Sebastian standing by the kitchen island. “You scared me.” I says as I grip at my chest.

He walks around the counter toward me. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean too.” Reaching out he places his hand on my belly, giving it a rub. “I was hoping we could talk. After dinner do you think we could go somewhere and talk?”

“Um… well I actually already promised Nicky we’d go get ice cream. You could come with and then we could drop him off and go somewhere and talk.”

Sebastian nods, “Yeah that sounds good.” He steps closer to me. “I’m sorry about last n—”

I cover his mouth to stop him from talking, but then quickly remove it. “We can talk about it later.” Walking around him, I toss the bottle into the trash.

Dinner is awkward to say the least, especially since I know, that my parents know that Sebastian is the father of my baby. Luckily for all of us, Nicky dominates the conversation.

Although, every time I look up, I find Sebastian looking at me, but I look away before anyone else notices.

Nicky finishes his food before any of us, and gets up, running into the house. Pete watches him go, and then turns back to us at the table. “How was it?” He signals to our plates.

“The chicken was great, honey.” Mom leans over, wrapping her arms around him. “You are the master griller.” She wiggles her eyebrows at him.

Sebastian makes a vomiting sound that has me laughing, especially when Pete slaps his brother in the back of the head. He points at me. “Don’t you dare laugh, little girl.”

That seemed to be what we needed to break the tension a little. “Have you thought of any names yet?” Mom asks.

I smile. “I’ve got a three that I love, but I want to narrow it down to two. Then I’ll decide once I see her.” My eyes flit to Sebastian and I feel his intense stare on me.

“Are you going to tell us what they are?” Pete asks before taking a sip of his beer.

“I’ve thought long and hard about it and I’m going to keep them to myself for now. Not to say that I won’t eventually give in and spill the beans, because you know I will.” I stand and start gathering up the dishes. Mom tries to help, but I tell her to sit and relax.

Just like that first night, Sebastian helps me bring everything in, and then loads the dishwasher.

Nicky comes into the kitchen ten minutes later with his flip flops on. “Time for ice cream.”

That’s our cue to go. I send him outside to say goodbye and then he comes running back inside, jumping into Sebastian’s arms. I turn away before he catches me smiling and then the three of us head out to my car.

Chapter 11

Sebastian

Nicky sits between Luna and I, eating his chocolate sundae with lots of enthusiasm. He smiles up at me and has a ring of chocolate around his mouth. I shake my head and smile as I grab the wet wipe that she holds out to me. “I’ll clean your face when you’re done, big guy.”

I wouldn’t say I’m uncomfortable with kids, but until now I’ve never really been around them.

He nods and goes back to eating. I look up as Luna is licking her ice cream cone. Fuck, my dick twitches in my shorts, but I will it to stop. Getting a boner in front of my nephew would be so fucking embarrassing.

I take a sip of my vanilla malt as an old couple walks by. The woman looks at us and smiles. “You’re a beautiful family.”

Nicky shouts. “Thank you.”
