I touched my stomach.
“I’m always honest,” Atlas said.
“That you are. Now can I be honest about something?”
“Sure.”
“I’m terrified at the moment. I have no idea what to expect from you, Atlas. Do you believe me? Do you believe this baby is yours? Am I…”
“Wait a second,” he said. “You’re having doubts about yourself right now? Is there anything I should know?”
“See? That right there.”
“You brought it up, love. I didn’t say a word about that. I’m not even sure if that thought would go through my head.”
“Yeah, right.”
“Hey,” he said.His voice a little deeper. A little more stern. A whole lot more sexy.“You texted me and what was the first thing I did? I told you I was coming over. To see you. To talk to you. Right?”
“Yeah, but to talk about what?”
“You haven’t given me the chance to do anything yet.”
“It’s not me,” I said.
I pointed across the apartment.
Atlas turned his head to see what I saw.
Which was Hannah sitting on the kitchen counter, her feet dangling, hands on the counter, her arms purposely pressing her chest together, adding just a little bit of extra cleavage. Not that she needed it.
The guys all looked at her like she was a meal.
They had finished off the bottle of wine already.
They were all monsters. Athletic, sexy monsters.
Big, beautiful hockey players.
“Fine,” Atlas said. “Then we’re out of here. We’re going somewhere else to talk. We’ll go to my place.”
“No,” I said. “Last time I was there you seduced me and got me pregnant.”
“I did… what?”
“Am I wrong?”
“Very wrong, love. I didn’t seduce anyone. You and I both wanted that to happen.”
“And you just stuck it in me without a care!”
“I figured if there was an issue, you’d tell me.”
“Right. My fault. Always the woman’s fault with these things.”
Atlas rubbed his jaw.
I was getting under his skin.
