Hollywood Hearts

Twenty One

"Look at you!" Charlie laughed as they got off the bus, but I grinned as Jorel came over and set his hands on my belly.

"Did you pick?" He asked and I nodded, smiling at him.

"Gianni Decker, since we're both Italian." I grinned and he laughed, kissing my head.

"Girl, you big!" Funny said and I smiled as Dylan carefully hugged me. When I winced as Gianni kicked my bladder again, Jorel looked worried as the guys stepped away.

"Fucking kicker." I whispered, making Jorel let out a breath.

"I told you she was a kicker!" I laughed and he smiled as he put his arm around my shoulders.

"Come on, we have our new house to get to for your welcome home dinner." I said and Jorel held the door open on the car for me, helping me in.

"God, girl! I can't fucking drive with how short you are!" J laughed as he readjusted the seat after everything was packed in and everyone was in.

"Sorry!" I snorted then we went home, but Gianni was moving around.

"Sleep, child!" I whispered, smiling as his hand laid on the top of my belly. When we got home, the women and children greeted their men, but I nearly sprinted for the bathroom to go pee again.

Jorel's POV
"Wait, you're six months?! So what, at Ava's birthday-"

"Technically, the same time I proposed." I said and Johnny chucked a watermelon piece at me.

"Dude, my bathroom-"

"Like Charlie hasn't already destroyed it!" I laughed and Perse giggled as Charlie shrugged.

"I expect that from him, but not you!" Johnny said then I grinned as Perse rubbed her belly.

"Hey, what about your piercing?" Danny asked and Perse sighed.

"Took it out when my belly began to grow, so it didn't tear." She said and I smiled, kissing her head.

"Good idea." Danny laughed then smiled as Reese came over, taking up residence on his lap.

"The kids are asleep, Randi is going to take them home to her place." She said and I sighed.

"Thanks, Reese." I said and she looked confused, but I glanced at Perse and she nodded.

"She's my tour wife, of-"

"Wait, you two were serious?!" Danny asked and Perse laughed as she pushed on my side to sit up.

"Yeah, serious! I mean, it's not like I have J to warm my bed-"

"Whoa!" Dylan laughed, but I glared at Perse and she grinned.

"Purely platonic, Jorel." Reese said and I huffed, drinking my beer.

"It's like sleepovers, that's it. Besides, we take care of each other when you guys are on tour-"

"All of us do it." Reese said and Johnny snorted his beer, coughing as we laughed.

"So all of our women just casually sleep together?" Charlie asked and Perse nodded.

"Platonically, we're all tour wives." She said and I smiled.

"Makes sense." Matt said then I eyed him.

"Come on, we're gone on average four months for each tour, they gotta have someone to support them during that time." He said and we finally agreed.

"I'm going to get dessert, I'll be right back." Perse said and Reese stood, helping Perse up.

"Thanks, babe!" She grinned, though my stomach churned as Perse went inside. I don't know why, but I felt like something bad was about to happen.

Perse's POV
I softly hummed to myself as I got the cake together then I reached into the cabinet and went to grab eight plates when someone rang the doorbell.

"Ugh, what now?" I mumbled and went towards the door, rubbing my stomach as Gianni kicked again.

"Little fighter." I mumbled and opened the door, staring at the girl that stood there. She was blonde with a gorgeous tan, bright green eyes, she had a cute button nose, was probably around the five foot three mark and weighted roughly a hundred and twenty pounds or so. Her most prominent feature was the small belly bump she had, I'd assume she was about three to four months along.

"Can I help you?" I asked, even as she looked around behind me, trying to see into the house.

"Excuse me, can I help you?" I repeated myself and she smiled softly.

"I'm sorry. My name is Lucille, I-I was trying to see if he was here." She said finally and I had to admit, she had a pretty voice.

"Who? I have people over, mostly guys, be specific or get off my property." I said and she softly laughed.

"You're Persephone Jones, right? I've heard about-"

"Talk before I call the cops." Knowing our luck, she was some crazy ass fan who stalked the guys, but I couldn't be sure considering most of the guys were either separated or single at this point.

"I'm looking for Jorel Decker." She said and I clenched the door tighter, scenarios as to why she wanted my fiancé running through my head, most of them involving alcohol and her pregnancy.

"Why?" I asked and she softly laughed.

"Down, future Mrs. Decker, he's just a close friend-"

"Babe?!" I turned and saw Jorel, but he swallowed hard as he saw me and Lucille.

"Lucy?" He breathed, something in his eyes changing as he stared at her. I slowly looked between them then recognized the look in his eyes.

"Close friend, yeah." I whispered and shook my head, leaving the entry way.

"Perse, wait-"

"DON'T TOUCH ME!" I screamed and heard the porch door open as I glared at Jorel.

"Don't fucking touch me! Deal with your mistress first!" I scoffed and turned, going to our bedroom and sitting on the foot of the bed. As I sat there, I couldn't help it as I finally started crying and set a hand on my stomach. How could he do this to us?! To Gianni and I?! I thought he loved us! I shook my head then went to the head of the bed, hugging my pillow and crying into it as I tried to figure it out. Is that also his child?
