Miranda went home and got ready to go out with Ben. She put on another stretch dress, that was grey. She straighten her hair and put on some jewelry. By the time she finished putting on her white shoes. She heard her door bell ring.
Miranda walked to the door and opened it up. Ben had on a white shirt and black jeans. He looked good. " Aww you brought me flowers. You didn't have to do that.. thank you." Miranda said grabbing them and taking them to the kitchen.
Ben watched as she bent over to get a vase from under the sink. He couldn't tear his eyes away from her backside. Pregnancy changed her body and Ben loved it. He noticed her hips got wider and her breast were fuller. She was a master piece before and she was better than Mona Lisa now. He thought it was so adorable that you could see her belly button poking out.
"Okay I just have to grab a cardigan and then I'm ready." Miranda said walking to her room. She grabbed a white one and her purse and she met him at the front.
Ben pulled into a sea food buffet. "Aww how did you know. I've been craving shrimp all day." Miranda said cheesing.
Miranda and Ben sat at the table and talked for hours. She apologized again for what she did multiple times, until Ben told her enough. He enjoyed talking to her and catching up along with clearing the air about tons of stuff. " Ben come on this side of the booth and sit beside me" Miranda finally said.
"I was trying to give you space. Seeing how this is our first day seeing each other after months. "
"I wouldn't mind if you didn't give me so much space." Miranda said as Ben moved and sat beside her. He then grabbed her hand and Miranda rubbed her thumb across his knuckles.
After they finished eating. Ben drove Miranda back home. He walked her to the door. " Come inside, you don't have to leave just yet." Miranda said as she unlocked the door.
She sat her purse down on the couch and she walked to the kitchen. " Do you want something to drink.?" Miranda asked.
" Water is fine." Ben replied.
She handed him the water and then walked back to the counter.
"Look Ben where do we go from here, do you want to Co- parent? How are we gonna do this ?." Miranda asked nervously." I want to be with you, Miranda." Ben said firmly.
"Oh no concern we will end up just friends." Miranda asked playing with the cap of her water bottle.
" Is that what you want." Ben asked looking into her eyes.
" No." Miranda said not leaving his gaze.
" Me either, look I don't want to be your friend. I have enough friends." Ben said walking closer to her until their faces were inches apart.
Miranda silently agreed as Ben leaned down to kiss her. He wrapped his arms around her and she threw her arm around his neck. Miranda's heart raced as they kissed. Ben was going to have to support the 3 of them because her knees were going weak. Ben broke their kiss and he made sure she was steady on her feet.
"Move in with me." Ben said
"I'm not moving in with you, that is a crazy Idea. We only been together, what a day? Not even an hour." Miranda replied taking fast." Just think about it " Ben said pulling her close and wrapping his arms around her waist.
"We need to take baby steps." Miranda said laying her head on his chest.
" We are wayyy past baby steps. We made a whole baby. Forget baby steps with us. It doesn't exist, a year from now we will be watching our baby take steps." Ben said laughing.
"You not a funny man Ben Warren." Miranda lightly hit the back on his head.
Ben and Miranda just stayed in the same spot. As held her and they swayed back and forth. Miranda felt her nipples harden and she looked down.
"Uggh my hormones are going crazy. We only established a relationship and hour ago. Is it crazy that I want you so bad right now." Miranda asked stepping back and looking up in his eyes.
