(Editing) Sold to Be His

Chapter 37

Shawn arrived yesterday and he slept all the time. Thankfully, today we can have a day together. I am putting my long hair into a side pony tail in front of the mirror. I see Shawn's reflection as he is putting on his gray long sleeve shirt over a white tank. I smile to myself and think how happy I am that he is back. He turns to me and smiles back. "Are you ready?"

I nod and stand, "How do I look?"

He stares at me from head to toe. I'm wearing black tights under a long black blouse with boots and a cute jacket. It is the end of January, so it is still cold outside.

"Great," he walks towards me with a smirk and wraps his arms around me. Though, I feel fat now. I feel how he needs to extend his arms more now to hold me. My stomach hits his easily now.

"What's wrong?" he asks. I look down, "I'm not that attractive anymore. I am so huge."

Shawn laughs and I eye him. What the hell? Why is he laughing? I step back and cross my arms, but I just feel fat! My arms are on my belly.

"Oh, Athena, don't get upset," he coughs his laughter away. "You look good and you are pregnant. This is something that needs to happen."

I roll my eyes, "I just feel weird."

"Well, don't, you look beautiful and I am still attracted to you," he smirks. He gets my hand and kisses it. "I'll prove it tonight if you like."

"No, it's fine, not in the mood anyways," I get my purse and walk out of the room. Shawn follows behind and gets my hand. "Really?" he asks as we head downstairs.

"Yeah, not today," I say honestly. I think the hormones are getting to me now.

"Okay, whatever makes you comfortable," Shawn kisses my cheek and we head out.

We have a casual date with lunch and a movie. We are walking around the mall now. I notice some girls, probably high schoolers, checking Shawn out at the register's line. I'm siting down on a mannequin stand as my feet got super sore.

Shawn notices them giggling and turns to them as he hands over a credit card.

One, a short redhead, smiles at him and waves. Oh man, this girl doesn't even have a chance with him if he wasn't mine. She is too young.

Shawn waves back and turns back to the cashier who gives him the card back and the shopping bag. Shawn nods to the girls as he walks towards me.

"Come on," Shawn offers me his hand, but I stand alone and begin to walk out of the store.

"Are you serious?" Shawn catches up to me and stops in front of me. He is grinning, "Why are you mad now?"

"Really? You are asking me that now?" I respond.

He shrugs, "I wasn't doing anything bad Athena."

"Hello? Flirting with those teenage girls who by the way are too young," I say.

He sighs, "Sweetie, why would I flirt with any girl if I'm married? I love you only. I was just fooling around with them. I know they are young, I just wanted to embarrassed them be-"

"Embarrassed them? See, you can even make up an excus-" he kisses me. His lips show dominance and devours my lips. I moan against his lips without even caring people might stare. He pulls away and touches my cheek. "I'm sorry, but you didn't have to worry or get jealous."

I roll my eyes, "I'm just tired. I want to rest."

He nods, "Let's go."

...

LATER THAT DAY

I open my eyes and see Shawn using his phone siting next to me. I sit and he looks at me, "You had a good nap?"
