Code Of Love

CHAPTER 4

Sky
The sunlight woke me up. I should have closed the curtains but I was so spent I couldn't even move and the stranger had to carry me to his bed. Ooh and he fucks good.

Where has he been all my life? That's what I mean when I say I want a man to fuck me till I can't walk. I opened my eyes and adjusted to the light.

He has a nice bedroom. You know the typical one where men have just a nightstand, a bed and a whole walk-in closet. The colors on the wall are white and his beddings are black.

"Just went to get us breakfast! I'll be right back." I saw a note once I was done getting dressed and guilt stabbed me in my gut. Why can't anyone just fuck and move on.

I can't date, it's something I promised myself a long time ago. I had to, otherwise I would end up like my mom. I looked at the note again and just left it on the bed.

He wants more and I can't give him that. Or maybe he always feed all his hookups, well not this one coz she's leaving. He's a handsome man, breathtaking even. I'm sure he has no problem on the ladies sector and will find one.

On my way out I bumped into a lady. A pretty one at that. She looked at me looking pissed. What's her deal? "Do you guys fuck often? Are you like his regular hookup when he's in L.A?" She asks.

"I have no idea what you're talking about lady. Would you tell that gentleman I left? I had to rush I'm sorry I couldn't stay and have breakfast with him."

"He's buying you food?" She asked shocked. "Which I'm not gonna eat so knock yourself out." I said and took the elevator down to the lobby.

This is one fancy place. I even feel out of place walking around here. I ordered an uber and took it back to our apartment. Liv wasn't there which means she either slept at Helena's or crashed with the guys.

I took a shower and got ready to go to the Laurent's house where I babysit. It's this cute lesbian couple that have the cutest kids I have ever seen. I love kids.

I always have since I was young. And I didn't have a problem taking care of Ava's mom's kids when she was gone. So babysitting was the right job for me.

I got tired of working at the regular bar that students go to. Constantly getting groped and man handled by jocks when they get drunk. So instead I have flexible shifts at the school café and babysitting.

Hey Sky." I had arrived at the Laurent's house. I could hear the twins yelling and their younger sister running around following them.

"Hope I'm not late?" I asked their mom. "No you're not. I have a night shift but my wife will relieve you at around 9. Is that okay with you? And of course we're paying."

She closed the door behind me and rushed after her young daughter who was trying to ride their dog like a horse. "Mommy, can we have a unicorn?" She said.

The dog ran very fast, no doubt traumatized after she literally rode it and yelled at it. Poor little dog. "Well we can ask mama if she wants another pet."

Lindsay and her wife, Sloane are the fucking cutest lesbian couple I know. They love their kids but more than that they're so much in love with each other it makes me feel bad about myself.

"No problem with working overtime. I love these troublemakers." I said. "Sky!" They all yelled and run to hug me. I hugged them back but picked Clarke up, she likes when I do it.

"How are you my little love. Did you miss me?" I asked and they all started talking at once filling me in on their weekend activities.

"And mama said if we're good to you, you will let us play our new game?" Keith said. "Okay Keith. I'll think about it but first, what time is it?"

"Study time!" They yelled. Long gone Lindsay and I slipped into the routine I have for them everyday. The pay is good, better than I could have asked for but despite that, I love these kids.

"What's wrong Clarke?" She had stopped colouring and her brothers were doing math they couldn't hear us. "Is it true mommy and mama will go to hell?" Well damn!

"Why would you think that baby? Talk to me." I cooed. I felt like crying, I hate seeing kids sad. Reminds me too much of myself.

"This kid in school said that my mommys will go to hell because they're married and I will go with them too. I don't want mommys to go to hell because of me. Please Sky don't let them. Can you return me to Target before mama comes home? If I'm not here, then they won't go to hell."

And then she started crying and it took everything in me not to fucking weep my eyes out. Who the fuck would say that to a child? If it wasn't illegal, I would fucking hit that child to the fucking moon.

"Look at me baby. Whoever told you that is just jealous because you have two mommys. Mommys are your superheroes right? Well that kid is jealous because they don't have two superheroes like you and your brothers."

"And two mommys getting married isn't a problem? It's cool. I wish I had two mommys like you baby. Then I would have two superheroes."

"You have only one mommy?" She innocently asked. "Well, my mommy is watching me from heaven, I hope so."

"Are you sad you don't have a mommy. I can share my mommys with you." Ooh poor innocent child. "I'm sad I don't have a mommy but that's okay. And if you give me one mommy, you won't have two superheroes watching you."

"Now finish colouring and we can bake cupcakes. Boys! Finish up math and then Keith you have to study science before having some screentime okay?" Keith groaned but agreed regardless.

I emotionally walk to the kitchen with tears in my eyes. I do some light house work and when Clarke comes over, we bake cupcakes. Afterwards we play in their backyard as we wait for the cupcakes to bake.

A few hours later, I fed the kids and we cuddled up watching Disney princesses. Clarke demanded and her brothers happily obliged. Then she slept 15 minutes in and I tucked her.

"Okay boys. Brush your teeth and then I'll tuck you in." I said. "Can you read us a story?" Kyle asked. He is the silent one mostly but don't let that fool you. He can be noisy and messy when he wants. "Well you two were good today so yes I will."

Few minutes into the story they were snoring and I switched on the LED lights and the door slightly opened just like they like. Then I cleaned up and by the time I was done, I didn't realize how tired I was.

Sloane was supposed to be here at 9 but she wasn't. A few hours later and she still wasn't back yet. So I texted Lindsay and asked her about it but she didn't reply.

Then she called. "Hey. I'm so sorry about this. Sloane had a last minute thing at work and now she's on her way to London and I have a night shift."

"Ooh." I said. I didn't know what else to say. "Please I'll pay you for your normal time today and if you stay over tonight and take them to school tomorrow I'll pay you 2000$ just for that."

"That's really a lot Lindsay." I like money, but 2000$ was like my salary for what, three or four months and a half? "Please Sky. Make that 3k. Please." I felt pity for her. "Okay no problem. Do you mind if I call a friend to drop off some clothes for me?"

"No problem on my end. Thank you so fucking much. You're a life saver." And then she hanged up. Liv dropped off my clothes and left in a hurry to hangout with her dad who was in town.

I slept in their spare bedroom with thought of my mother haunting me. Lately everything reminds me of her.
