Paying the Price

Chapter 2: Paying The Price

I awoke to the desperate screams of a very hungry baby monitor. "Oh crap!" I exclaimed as I shot out of Harvey's comfy bed in nothing but my bra and shorts and ran towards Scarlet's room. It was conveniently right across from Ingrid's and painted a light pink color. I followed the baby wails to the crib. It only took a minute but it felt like years. Her cry was so down right heart breaking.

I felt around on the wall in search of the mushroom light switch. Once I found it, I switched it on and placed the baby monitor down on the small leaf table by the majestic crib.

The baby's room was paradise. Ingrid got this idea for a fairy theme and her dad was very willing to help his first grandchild be as spoiled as his daughter once was.

There was a huge fake tree inserted and the branches were filled with small lights that automatically turned on in the dark. A small door was at its base for when Scarlet could walk so she could play inside of its small enclosure. A small swing was drilled in the ceiling but it seemed attached to the tree. Her crib was a huge circular flower. It had leaves on one side for shelving. The pink walls were lined with sparkle and Disney fairies. It was magical and made me jealous every time I walked in.

Scarlet stopped crying for a spilt second when she saw me before returning to her ear splitting yell. I winced before I removed her from her crib and put a bottle on the warmer by the rocker. I placed Scarlet on the changing table and picked out a cute onzie that was made to look like a dress. I figured if me and Ingrid were going to look amazing tonight Scarlet should too.

After feeding Scarlet her fill of formula that had a distinct smell of baby vomit, Ingrid entered the room looking more like the old Ingrid than usual. She had her hair up in a sleek ponytail and stylish white lace button up dress. She still wore little make up but I hadn't seen her out of her big tee shirts and sweats in what felt like forever.

"Did meanie Maddie hurt my baby?" She cooed towards Scarlet. "Maddie you look half dead. Get your butt back to sleep. It's prom you need all the beauty sleep you can get. Oh and I ran by your house to grab your prom things. Your mom had them all ready. Isn't she the sweetest?" Ingrid pushed me out of the nursery and I stumbled toward Ingrid's bedroom. I don't think I could make my brain work enough to find Harvey's room again so I stumbled until I landed on what felt like Ingrid's silky bed. Sleep engulfed my wary mind.

I awoke to Ingrid's alarm belting a monotonous tune. I didn't know why she had an alarm set but it was strange and irritating as hell. I pounded the snooze. I tossed and turned before bothering to check the time. It read 2:37. I shot out of bed. Prom was at nine and I still had PLENTY to do.

I ran toward Ingrid's bathroom in attempt to freshen my self up before anyone saw me. I looked up to see Ingrid Brooke standing before me completely butt naked.

It's not like I haven't saw her naked before but after she had Scarlet she had been a bit more hesitant. Her body was still as beautiful as before. Sure it had a few stretch marks and was a little paler but in some weird way it made her look prettier to be more human and less perfect. Ingrid noticed I walked in but all she did was smile. She was wearing make-up again.

"Hey baby what took you so long?" Ingrid pouted before stepping towards me. "I guess I was really tired. Umm what are-," I didn't finish my sentence though because Ingrid pushed me to a wall and started kissing my neck. I froze but didn't push her away. "Maddie-Moooo I missed you. Never leave me again," Ingrid cooed before biting my neck slightly. It wasn't quite enough for it to hurt. She licked her teeth marks then pressed her freshly lip glossed lips forcefully to mine.

Her finger tips grazed my bra and shorts. I started to sweat. I couldn't be doing this! I had... Who was I dating? My mind was scrambled as Ingrid pulled off the remainder of my clothes. Ingrid slammed me into the floor and began kissing down my chest. I moaned as Ingrid pushed herself down to my sweet spot. Suddenly her nails dug into my back knocking a little more sense into me.
