"Final order of business before I let you go," My agent says to me pausing dramatically before she continues. "What did you decide about that movie? They are moving forward with the project and to be honest they have given you more then enough time to make a decision."

We have been on zoom for the past hour having a business meeting and I am anxious to be done with it and have been avoiding this topic.

"I know, I'm just having a hard time deciding." I confess.

"Whats the problem? The job is perfect for you and your career." She says, making it sound so simple.

"A lot of things. Its just... I don't know if I'm ready to go back to work so soon after having a baby, newborns are so much work and I don't want to miss anything." I tell her honestly before continuing. "Hero is another issue. The movie brings back bad memories for us so he isn't comfortable with it. Besides that, I don't to be away from him or take the baby away from him for a couple months either."

She stares at me like I have lost my mind and I know I have seconds to brace myself before she tells me exactly what she thinks. "We can arrange for the baby and a nanny to care for her to be with you while you are filming so you know that isn't a issue. As for Hero, has he even seen the new script?"

"No, he doesn't want anything to do with it." I confess.

"Well then you need to read it to him and tell him your taking the job. He can travel with you so you all are not apart, I will help you make the arrangements but you have to think about your career. How long until he takes another job and your stuck there with the baby, by yourself?"

She tries to say more but I cut her off not wanting a lecture. "Send me the information for filming, like the dates and locations and I will discuss it with him tonight. How long until I need to give them a answer?

"Three days. I will forward the information but please keep in contact with me about this." She pleads.

We say our goodbyes and I try to think of the best way to go about talking to Hero about the job and ultimately settle on seduction. 



I silently creep around the house checking on what Hero and the baby are doing, finding Hero playing video games in the living room and the baby sleeping in her own room. Not wanting to be seen, I rush back into our bedroom and undress completely before pulling on one of his favorite t shirts. The t shirt hits me mid thigh, hiding that I don't have anything on under it.

I grab the script as I leave the room, hiding it behind my back. I find him in the same spot on the couch but now he is swearing at the game under his breath so I know he is worked up. Walking in front of him I block his view. Before he can tell me to move I push his shoulders against the couch with my one free hand and straddle him, his shirt riding up my thighs and showing him that I am bare.

He licks his lips as he stares at my center, dropping his paddle to the ground, giving me all his attention. He grabs my ass with one hand and wraps his other arm around my back, feeling the script which makes him stop.

"We need to talk." I tell him bringing the script to my chest.
