Jaguars at Patriots
1 1/2 months since miscarriage
"Julian get back here!"I yelled as I chased him around the apartment. He darted around furniture and it was frustrating the hell out of me that I couldn't catch him, but I guess that's what I get trying to chase a Pro Bowl Wide Receiver.
"Nope, not until you agree to delete his contact,"Julian started running backwards just to tease me. The apartment was quite small so we had probably done at least 5 laps around the house. I was in shape but not as in shape as him so I wasn't sure how much longer I was going to last.
"He's just a friend, I haven't slept with him since Thanksgiving and you know that,"I panted and Julian finally stopped running planting himself on the other side of the island so he could run if I tried anything. I was just thankful for a break.
"I don't know Abs maybe you were sneaking out in the middle of the night while you were here."He was mock serious, but I could tell that he was actually bothered by Luke texting me.
This all started when Julian and I were laying on the couch watching a movie and my phone had gone off. I was comfortable laying on Julian so I asked him to grab it and see who it was. When he saw it was Luke he jumped up and held it over my head teasing me about why Luke had texted me. Even though he was teasing I knew that he was slightly pissed off that I was still talking to Luke.
"Babe come on, I've been here since the miscarriage. You know I haven't snuck out,"He sighed nodding his head and I crept around the counter towards him.
"I was just teasing,"He tried to convince me but I knew that he wasn't. I mean I would be pissed if he was still talking to his Victoria Secret models that he used to sleep with. I walked around The counter and held up my hands in surrender and he set my phone on the counter.
"No you weren't. Does it really bother you that I still talk to Luke? You do realize that when we were together we both talked about how we were in love with other people. We were together purely for sex and fun, not for a relationship,"I explained wrapping my arms around his neck. He sighed letting his eyes close.
"I just don't like the fact that I have to see him, with us doing the same thing and especially after that game where Luke and I got into the fight I guarantee that the Panthers will be on our schedule next year for ratings,"Julian rubbed his hands over his face. He was conflicted, he didn't want to have to be the possessive boyfriend who didn't let his girlfriend talk to anyone, but at the same time I slept with Luke and I'm sure Julian would be happy if I never spoke to Luke again.
"I know babe, I'm sorry. I met Luke weeks after we broke up and as soon as we started liking each other we broke up. We knew it wasn't fair to try and continue something when out hearts weren't in it. He's still in love with his ex girlfriend, it's one of the things we talked about when I was with him,"I tried to explain stepping closer to him and forcing him to look me in the eyes.
"I'm sorry for freaking out Abs. It's just killing me that when people ask about you I can't give them an answer other than she's my best friend. It makes people think that you are available,"he traced his finger over my cheek.
"Who's asking about me?" I jumped up onto the counter so I was sitting on top of it and Julian stood in between my legs.
He ran his hands through his hair before answering me,"The guys ask what's going on and every interview I do people ask me about you." I blew a long breath out of my mouth not realizing that people were so interested in our life.
