“Well, the lady assured me they were real sterling silver. So far so good.”
“Anyway … back to my trip. The firm is sending me to Alabama for one of our big clients … some condominium project in downtown Birmingham. Do you want to go?”
“No.”
“Well, there’s another reason I asked you to lunch.”
“I knew it … what?”
He grins rubbing his finger across my arm. “I was thinking maybe we should try again … I know it’s been awhile and we’ve not discussed having children … but … I don’t know.”
I gasp, shrugging out of his reach. I squint at him. “Are you insane Eric? There is no way I’m getting pregnant.”
“You never know. Condoms aren’t a hundred percent.”Yes, he’s right, but with my IUD in place it increases the chance of not getting pregnant. “Well, maybe we should try. It’s been six years, Amelia.” I am not having this conversation. I cross my arms over my midsection, staring out at the boats.I wish I could sail away from all of this!Our waitress returns with our lunches.
The Mai Mai looks absolutely vile. I eat the veggies around it.
“Try the Mai Mai, it’s delicious.” Eric eats his with no regard for my disgusted face.
“I have no desire to eat dolphin.” I roll my eyes. “And don’t try to justify it by telling me it’s not Flipper.”
“I want to try again,” Eric blurts, “for a baby.”
“Well, I don’t!” My appetite is completely depleted. I just met the most amazing man of my life, and this idiot wants me pregnant and bound. “It was a blessing what happened six years ago. A damn blessing,” I hiss pushing my chair away.
“Just calm your ass down.” He looks around for the waitress. “Check,” he tells her as she approaches. I feel my anxiety building. Why is he bringing up this subject? Why is he wanting the check when he hasn’t finished his meal?
“Why are you asking for the check? You haven’t finished eating,” I ask, about to freak out.
“I have had enough.” His eyes are on me. “We need to head back to the inn.”
“Why?” He gives me a knowing look. “No, I don’t want to go back to the inn. I’m not ready to go back there.” He’s going to try to fuck me. I know that look.
He pays the bill and grabs my hand. “Let’s go.” I try to pull my hand out of his grasp, but he doesn’t release me.
“You’re hurting my arm, Eric,” I whisper as he practically pulls me down the street back to the inn. “Let go of me.” I’m jerking at his hands on me. He’s completely ignoring me.
He shoves me through the back door of the house kissing me on my neck, pushing me back against the wall. His mouth is harsh, covering my lips, demanding I kiss him. His breathing is ragged as he starts pulling at my dress. His hands claw up my body, squeezing my boobs. “You’re the sexiest woman on the face of this earth.”
I ignore his compliment, and he hastily unbuttons my dress. He kisses down my neck. “I want you naked.” This could be really hot if it wasn’t him. I close my eyes, trying to work up some sort of mood.
“Stop.” I pretend to be all breathy and turned on. “Wait. You don’t have anything down here.” He laughs as he kisses me.
“We don’t need to worry about that Amelia. If something comes from it, it does.” He reaches up under my dress, rubbing his hand around my ass. “I want you here and now … raw.”
“No.” I shove him back. “We can’t.”
He looks at me. “We can do whatever we like.”
“Stop it. Stop it,” I scream at him and shove him hard. He falls back, landing on his ass. He looks pissed.
“I don’t want to have a baby now or ever, Eric.” I can’t tell what he’s thinking. He pulls at my legs, behind my knees, making me fall to the floor with him.
He rolls over on me. “Why not?” He’s looking seriously into my eyes.
“Look around. I run this inn. You’re an architect. We don’t need kids.” He leans off me before our conversation can go any farther to answer his phone.
“Hello, yeah this is he.” He smirks as he looks at me. “Yeah we can do that.”
