Loved By The Ghetto (Urban)

Chapter 23

RECAP:

"You alright?" I turned around and Trey was at the door. I sat up and shook my head. He sat at the end of my bed.

"Does James run the police station?" I asked.

"Nah, he just used to work there. He was police constable."

"Oh."

"Yeah, why?" He asked. I didn't tell them what James said to me back at the station, I didn't want them to get worked up or worried.

"No reason."

"They loved him down there, he influenced a lot of their decisions. I guess he kinda still does seeing how everyone knew him already." That was true. It's probably how he gets away with so much. No not even so much, but everything he does.

"Mm." Trey left shortly afterwards and I was alone again. I slept briefly but awoke when my door closed.

I turned around and was met by a sight I thought I'd never see. Jake had one of my towels wrapped around his lower body. His hair was free from it's usual low ponytail and was cascading in luscious waves past his shoulders. He smelt good too, like fresh man. I watched him fumble around on the desk and realised he was looking for some cream.

"It's in the suitcase." I croaked. He looked to me and smiled. Oh God. His chest and abs were just looking divine. My lower area throbbed erratically and I moaned.

"You like?" He asked catching me staring. My eyes grew wide and I turned around making him laugh.

He dressed in some shorts and a t-shirt the boys had kindly offered him and got into bed. "You alright?" He asked from behind me.

"Yeah."

"You not hungry? You haven't eaten all day."

"I'm good thanks."

"Okay." I felt him staring at me.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Huh? Um, so you're done with Reuben?"

"For now. I mean it's only temporary. Why are you asking? It's only been a couple hours."

"So does that mean I've got a chance?" I giggled at his stupidity and turned around facing him.

"Maybe." I smiled.

END OF RECAP

I woke up to Jake's arm around me and yeah I liked it but I'm not one of them fast girls that hop out of a relationship and then jump into the next one a day later if you get what I mean. Pulling the quilt off me, I shuffled slightly and Jake grunted, pulling me into him.

"It's not time to get out of bed yet." He grumbled, his eyes still closed. I giggled.

"I need to go wee Jake."

"You can't hold it for like another hour?" he asked.

"Another hour? When you're pregnant, you can't hold anything honey." I replied in an American accent.

When I exited the bathroom, I met Sean on the landing.

"Your boyfriend still here?" he asked, rubbing his eye.

"He's not my boyfriend." I corrected him swiftly.

"Well he seems like he wants to be."

"How do you mean?"

"He was bare asking what type of boyfriends you've had and what type of things you like doing and shit." He yawned.

"Oh." was all I said.
