Pregnant By The Playboy

39 ILAY

I walked in and took a seat next to River, and smiled at her. She smiled back awkwardly.

Uh....Ilay, this is Spencer, my friend and Spencer, this is Ilay, my....baby daddy". She introduced us while staring at the table.

My eye twitched.

"Did she just call me her BABY DADDY?! How could she say that! If she already told him about her pregnancy, that must mean that they're really close". I thought to myself.

"Hi, Spencer. Thanks for helping me look after her". I said, stretching out my hand for a handshake.

He scoffed. "Helping you? I look after her because I want to. It's got nothing to do with you. Wasn't hoping to meet you this soon by the way". He said rudely.

I watched as River ignored us and dug into her food. Spencer and I looked daggers at each other. I didn't want River near this guy, but I had no right to decide who she could hang out with.

River choked on the food while she was busy devouring it. I quickly sprung to action, and patted her back while handing her a glass of water. "You should eat slowly. Don't hurt yourself". I said.

I have no idea why I reacted like that. Perhaps it was the part of me that wanted to mark my territory, by giving her water before Spencer could.

She blinked her teary eyes at me as she sipped on the water. She looked so confused. She must be wondering why I was suddenly being nice and attentive. I smiled mischievously at her.

"So, how did you two meet?". Spencer suddenly asked while staring at me.

"I don't think that's important, is it? All that matters is that she's mine now". I responded.

"You asshole! You think she's a commodity? She's not yours. You can't get whatever you want just because you're rich. You don't know a thing about her. What's her favorite color? What's her favorite food? You know nothing. I've been with her and liked her since highschool". Spencer replied.

I scoffed. This guy was being so territorial, it made me feel like he and River were more than just friends.

"Well....that's a cute highschool crush story, but River is pregnant with my child now. That means she chose me and not you. That makes her mine". I said.

I noticed River was displeased with this argument, but still I had to let this loser know his place.

Spencer bit down hard on his lip as his face turned red with anger. "It's not a competition, you stupid jerk! Alright. Let's say you won this time. I'd let it be. But if you ever hurt River, I'd kick your wealthy ass so bad, you'd beg to be dead". He said.

I laughed. "Let me tell you, you've lost already, because that's never gonna happen". I replied.

"Oh really? But you already have a fiancee, so you want to fuck both-".

Suddenly, River slapped her hand on the table, cutting Spencer off. "That's enough! You both are embarrassing me. Everyone here right now can hear the nonsense you both are saying". She said to both of us with anger in her voice.

She got up, packed up her lunch,  and grabbed my hand. "Let's go home Ilay. I'll see you later at college Spencer". She said, as she pulled me out of the café and to the car.

I felt jealousy for an unexplainable reason. Seeing her so happy being around this stranger made my stomach flip. I was happy that she at least chose to go home with me in the end.

I had no idea how to let her know I was attracted to her. After all she'd leave after the baby is born. Perhaps it was best to keep our relationship professional.
