·Back to Present, 4 Days later·
(Desiree's Pov)After our encounter this past Sunday night, things went back to the way have always been during the week. Marc promised to call me that morning before he left but of course he didn't. On weekdays, we're magically strangers all over again. Our time is only from Friday after 10:30 to early the following Monday morning. When it's not that time, he spends time with his girlfriend like he's supposed to but waits for her to travel out of state just so we can see each other again. Like I mentioned before, that never bothers me but now...-- it's kind of starting to.
I keep trying to remind myself that I am not his girl anymore and that she comes before me in that category. That's what happens when you allow yourself to be a side hoe to someone who you still love deep down. And when he comes over to show me love, it makes it even harder for me not to miss that feeling.
I don't think he even misses me when she's around...

"--Then I have to go meet up with Lesley for lunch, go to the shoot in Washington D.C. and still fly to Chicago for my interview with Lisa Breyes" she explained her plans for this weekend.
"Damn, that's a tight schedule. You sure you can do all that babe? Maybe you should just you know, stay home with me--" I said, bringing her to me closer by her irresistible hips.
She rolled her eyes playfully. "You know I always wanna stay with you baby and soon.....I'm going to have to..." she rubbed her soft hands against my cheeks.
"Why you say that?" I questioned.
"I uh--...I was going to wait to tell you after dinner but I took a test and it looks like we're pregnant" she smiled happily. ...fuck😶
I smiled too. Just to be as happy as she was, but deep down I knew I was fucked. Damn, what am I going to tell Dez and how is she going react after I do tell her. I should've seen this coming. Me and Lira were having a little too much fun on the weekdays, due to the fact that I didn't have access to the one I really craved at night. That damn sure wasn't Lira but she could still satisfy me in bed.
I don't know why I'm so stuck up Desiree's ass in the first place, I have a good woman at home for that. Sure she was busy and I am too but we always make time for each other. Lira is a model for magazines all over the shop and always has to be on the road some days since people want her in their articles. I don't blame them though, my girl was pretty nonetheless.
Lira💗
Lira is honest, beautiful, smart, talented, has a great body and yet I'm still f*cking around with my ex. Dez and I have been through so much already and I just hate to keep hurting her. I love her so much deep down and I'm a little...addicted to seeing her if I'm being honest.

ChickLitHe sighed lowly to himself. "I love you too though" "You don't..." I replied. "Why don't you believe me?" "Because you screamed it to me Jay, right after we conceived our daughter. I will never forget that...." I looked at him with tears pouring dow...
