His Baby

Chapter 5: Seduction

We're leaving to go to his house so he can see Emma and play with her. I see him waiting outside when we finally get to his home.

He must be really excited to see her for the first time. He approaches my car, walks up where her car seat is buckled in the backseat and looks in the window.

"You can get her out if you want." I use my foot to close my door because my hands are full from holding my purse, diaper bag, and cell phone. He opens the door, takes the car seat out from the seatbelt, and then leads me inside his mother's house.

An hour later, he sings her to sleep and rocks her gently in both his arms. His voice is soft and angelic, and I could listen to him sing all day for the rest of my life. He gently sets her down in the car seat, then turns to me and bites his lip.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that? It's kind of creeping me out." With my legs crossed, facing away from him, I look over at Emma, who's fast asleep. "Want a beer or-?"

"No. Thank you for offering, though. But I'm breastfeeding, and I can't have any. You should know that. But tea or water would be wonderful." He gets up and goes into his kitchen, so I find the television remote and turn it on. I find my favorite cartoon comedy show of all time, American Dad.

Occasionally, I look over at him, and when I do, he looks at me and also winks at me. Every time the commercials come on, I look at Emma to ensure she's still asleep. Looking at her while she's sleeping makes me smile, and I can't even imagine what she's dreaming of right now.

"What do you like in your tea?"

"One spoonful of sugar and a spoonful of honey also. Thanks."

We finish our tea before Emma eventually wakes up. He sets the cup down and looks at me with a bit of a smirk on his face. He's really intimidating at this moment. He's taller, famous, more wealthy, and a few months older than me.

"Nathan, what are you doing?" He moves closer to me, reaching his arm out. His hand touches my upper thigh. He leans his head closer to mine till they're only inches apart. "To be honest, I did forget about you after school ended. But now I remember you. I remember you and how beautiful I thought you were that night..."

"I disagree. Just because we had sex once in high school and ended up having a baby doesn't mean we should be together. Not all marriages work...especially teen marriages."

"I didn't rush to say we should even get married... I was just saying I like you, Maya." He rubs his face as if he's frustrated then he looks at me. He leans back and puts an arm on the couch behind me. His arm slips down and wraps around my waist. I look up into his eyes and see they're filled with nothing but pure lust.

"Nathan, I-" He plants his lips onto mine and kisses me so hard I almost fall backward. His kiss is very entrancing and mesmerizing, and it's like I can't do anything else but kiss him. His hands slip beneath my shirt, then up my back. My heart is telling me to stop him from going any further, but my body doesn't feel the same way. My body wants his body on mine.

He's hot, but I don't know if I want to be with him. He slips in his tongue and immediately dominates my entire mouth. He leans forward, which makes me lie back on the couch beneath him. He's very seductive but not so subtle. He just jumps into kissing and touching me instead of taking it slow. "Stop. What are we doing?"

"Making out."

"I-I know, but is this going to lead to anything?" I'm kind of hoping it will, but also hoping that it won't. I need him. I need his touch, his kiss, and his body against mine all night long.

Wait. What am I thinking? I can't have sex with him again. I can't be with him. He's busy a lot, and he'll be away from me if we start a relationship. He'll just leave. I won't even know if he'll be faithful.

"Maya, I really like you. I want to be with you."

"If we get together, you'll leave with your band and never speak to me again because you'll always be busy. How can I trust th-" I look down at where his hands are. "...that you won't go out and party, get drunk, make out and end up having sex with some girl you don't even know? And maybe having her End up like me; with your kid."

"I want you to come with me."

"B-but what about Emma?" He tilts my head to look at him, but then he looks over at Emma and sighs.

"I don't know. I-I sort of forgot about her for a minute. Maybe she could stay with my mum and younger sister, and they'll love her more than anything."

If she does, I'll miss her. I can't be without my baby girl for very long, and it'd be too upsetting for me, and I'd cry all the time.

"How often would I be able to see her, though? She needs me." I watch her yawn and stretch her arms. "She has to come with us. I don't have a choice. If I'm coming along with you and your bandmates, she's coming too. End of discussion."
