Tempted

Chapter 17

A/n: Chris & Kayla in the M/M. 😊

Chris

"I didn't know that surprising you would shower me with so many gifts." Kayla blushed.

I forced a smile onto my face. "What's wrong baby?" Kayla grabbed my face. "It looks like you haven't slept in days."

"Let's go take the bags to the car." I mumbled.

"Christopher answer me." Kayla followed after me.

"Nothing Kay. Promise me you won't leave me." I popped the trunk.

"You're making no sense and you're scaring me. What did you do?"

"Get into the car, you're causing a scene." I mumbled. People who were leaving the mall started turning there attention towards us being nosey.

Kayla slammed the door shut as she got in. "Did you cheat on me again Chris?"

My head quickly shot up. "No baby, I ain't cheat on you." I grabbed her hand. "Kayla you know I love you right." I kissed her hand and she snatched her hand back.

"Stop beating around the bush and speak." She folded her arms giving me a evil look. I can tell she was getting impatient with me.

"You know my neighbor Nia?"

Kayla nodded her head.

"She's pregnant."

Kayla chuckled. "Okay congrats to her."

"That's not all." I scratched my head.

"What do you mean?" Kayla gulped.

"There's a possibility I may be the father."

Kayla shook her head at me. "I was so stupid to think you would change."

I grabbed her arm. "Baby I'm so sorry, I didn't cheat on you. I fucked her once and that was before we got back together."

"You're always sorry Chris. You just don't get it do you?" A tear slipped from her eye. "You told me you didn't want kids any time soon. I was suppose to be the one to have your first child, we were suppose to get married and have our own little family like we planned. What happened to that?" She cried.

"I didn't plan for this shit to happen. How the hell was I suppose to know we was going to get back together? I'm not even sure if the baby is mines yet." I sighed.

"You probably fucked her when I went back to New York, I don't trust you and I never will." Kayla grabbed her phone. "I don't want your gifts, keep them."

"Kayla, stop. I want to know where do we stand?" I took her phone from her making her look at me.

"Honestly I don't know. If that baby is yours Chris, I'm sorry but I won't be able to cope with it." She snatched her phone back.

I sighed as I started the car up. The car ride back to my crib was silent, I heard nothing but Kayla sniffles.

Nia

I nervously laid back on the doctors bed looking at the screen. I was waiting for the doctor to tell me the sex of the baby.

"Congratulations Mr. And Mrs. Perez, it's a girl." Dr. Owens smiled.

Mario bent down and pecked my lips. "Another little princess."

I forced a smile onto my face. "Will you be okay baby? I gotta use the bathroom I'll be right back." Mario asked.

I nodded my head. "I'll be fine." I watched him leave out.

"Dr. Owens, can I ask you something?" I nervously bit down on my bottom lip.

"Is it possible to get a paternity test while I'm pregnant?"

Dr. Owens gulped and she tucked her hair behind her ear. "Yes it's possible, are you interested in one?"

I nodded my head. "I haven't quite told my husband yet, I'm nervous but I need to know. I don't want to stress to much on it."

"Please don't honey, you don't want to hurt the baby. I can set you up an appointment at the lab. It'll take about 2 days for the results to come back."

I nodded my head. "Thank you so much Dr. Owens."

"No problem honey. Talk to your husband about it, you'll feel a lot better." She patted my shoulder. "I'll be right back with your doctor's report & my assistant will schedule you an appointment at the lab."

I nodded my head and Mario came back in.

"Hey you, how you feeling?" He grabbed my hand.

"I'm okay." I sighed.

"What's wrong baby?" Mario looked confused.

"Mrs. Perez, the lab has a opening for next Wednesday at 2:30 p.m." The assistant walked in handing me my paper work.

"That's fine." I agreed.

"Okay well I'll see you next check up. You take care." She gave me a warm smile.

"Thank you." Mario helped me up.

"What do you need to go to the lab for?" Mario asked.

"Paternity test." I blurted out.

"A what?" Mario froze.

"I said a paternity test." I sighed.

"I'm missing something right?" Mario side eyed me.

"Baby just wait until we get in the car. I'll explain."

"Don't baby me Nia. Who you been creepin' around with?"

"Chris." I mumbled.

"The neighbor. Really Nia? You like little boys now huh?"

"Mario stop it."

"Stop what? You fuckin' cheated on me Nia. I busted my ass for you and my kids, I gave you my all. Never in my life I cheated on you once. Women throw themselves at me everyday and I put them in they place because I know what I have at home. Excuse me I knew what I had at home." He yelled.

"I'm sorry Mario." I grabbed his arm as we got in the car and he yanked it away.

"Nia don't touch me man." He yelled as he drove off.

"Mario please forgive me." I felt a lump in my throat.

"How long were you going to hide this shit from me?" He banged the steering wheel as we stopped at a light. "Were you gonna wait until the baby be born and looks nothing like me, huh?"

"Stop it Mario there is still a possibility the baby is yours." I tried calming him down.

I sighed as soon as we pulled up to the house he ran inside the house. I followed behind him.

Mario grabbed a suitcase out the closet and started throwing his necessities in the suitcase.

"Mario." I yelled. "Why are you leaving?"

"I need some time to myself until we find out who's the father."

I nodded my head as I watched him pack his clothes. "Where are you going?"

"Don't ask me questions." He brushed passed me. "Tell my kids to call me if they need me."

I heard the front door shut and I laid back on the bed as the tears slipped from my eyes.
