~Chapter Five~
It just kicked. I swear the baby just kicked.
I get on Google and have a look at when you should feel your baby kick for the first time and it's around the seventeen week mark but you won't feel it on the outside until about twenty weeks.
I'm sixteen a half weeks now. My stomach is swollen and I feel like a whale. I'm horny as shit which I also found out could be because I'm pregnant and all my hormones going wild.
Sam has been MIA for like three days and Butch won't tell me anything. Too bad if something happens with the baby.
Work hasn't been to bad I guess, I get to sit in with Phalipo today and only this morning, my boss noticed my pregnancy. I haven't told anyone who the father is yet, it could ruin my chance with Phalipo.
'Ready?' Gavin asks me. I put my phone away and stand with the file needed.
I follow Gavin to his office and take a seat beside him and in front of Phalipo.
Sam had given the heads up on the situation and we aren't to act like we planned it. In return for my help, I get his clubs protection.
Yeah, Sam and I argued about that one and he won. Like always. Cue the eye roll.
'Now we need find loop holes in this case, anything to keep you from prison again' my boss says. Phalipo and I look at each other in shock before I turn my gaze to my boss.
'What did you say?'
'I thought you'd figure it out by now' Gavin laughs. 'I manipulate the law dear'
'Oh' is all I can say and he and Phalipo laugh.
'Don't worry, you don't know a thing lady and you won't get in trouble' Phalipo tells me in his Mexican accent.
'Good' I say 'And don't worry, I wont say anything to anyone' I assure them.
'I know you wont' Gavin smiles.
'Business. How do we get me off the hook?' Phalipo asks.
'It'll be hard since you were caught robbing the place but it could also be easy to get you off' I say.
'Convince the jury you are sorry and are trying to change. Give them a sad story' Gavin shrugs.
The meeting goes like this for an hour before it's time for me to go home.
'Drop me at the club?' Brandi asks. I nod and then tell her about my boss.
'Sure he's a crooked lawyer' Brandi says.
'Yep' I pull into the club house.
'That's good right? More chance of helping Phalipo that way right?' I nod at her and she gets out. 'I'll let you know if I'll be home tonight' I nod again and she shuts the door.
I drive home and see Sam following on his bike.
When we pull up at the apartment, I get out and let him follow me up the stairs.
'How did the meeting go?' Sam asks closing the door behind him.
'Did you know my boss manipulates the law?' I ask him as I flick the kettle on.
'Gavin? No, I had no idea. This is good news right?' he asks me taking a seat at the table.
'I guess. It makes it easier to help him, we just have to convince the judge he's a changed man and it was a moment of weakness. Phalipo is thinking up a sad sappy story to feed the jury'
'This might work, when's his court day?' Sam questions as I make us a coffee.
'Two weeks' I sigh. 'I'm going, not as a representative but just see how it turns out'
'I'd come too but I'm not allowed near a court house unless I'm attending' Sam tells me.
'Yeah well as long as no one knows you're the baby daddy then we should be fine but if they find out, I'm toast on this case'
'You'll be fine' he tells me. 'How's the baby?'
'Fine, I felt it kick today' I smile. 'You won't feel it on the outside until about twenty weeks'
'What's it feel like?' he smiles
'Butterflies rolling around my stomach' I laugh. It was the best description i could give.
'We haven't talked about names'
'We also haven't talked about after the baby is born' I say. I had been worried about after the baby was born and what Sam would want verses what i want.
'I know' he stands and comes over to me, taking my hands gently 'I don't know how it's going to play out after the baby is born and you and I both know the baby won't be staying at the club house' he cups my cheek.
'At least there is no argument there' I laugh. 'You can come see the baby when ever you want and I will bring it to the club house but I can't let you have it over night alone Sam. I'm hoping to breast feed and I don't want to be away from my baby over night'
'I understand Scarlet, we will figure it all out when the time comes' he whispers.
'Why are you so nice? You're meant to be this tough ass gangster who kills people and deals drugs and god know what else but here you are, no fighting, no raised voices, you're being nice'
'I don't know if it's you or if it's this baby but all I do in my spare time is think of you and the baby. I worry about you a lot and I just want to be with you all the time' I smile at his sweet confession.
'I like it when you're like this. There's no arguing and you're vulnerable which makes my chest ache'
'Doll face, don't get emotional on me. I can't deal with crying girls' he laughs. I hadn't even realised I was crying until he wipes the tear away with his thumb.
'I'm sorry' I laugh feeling like an idiot. 'Pregnancy hormones' i defend
'Don't apologise Doll face' I never thought I would ever have a heart to heart with Sam, it's just not who he is and I think I may even possibly be falling for him.
He treats me different and it may be because I carry his child but it may be something else, he doesn't even know it.
'When I first seen you in that club, slapping yourself, I thought you were beautiful then. A little crazy but still beautiful but I never planned on keeping you in my life, I just wanted that one night and let me tell you, I was not disappointed' he laughs. 'I'm sorry for getting you involved in the life I'm in but I dont regret it' I smile at him.
'Me either' and like that, his lips are on mine. After recovering from the initial shock, I mould my lips against his and move them with his.
My hands find his hair and his stay on my cheeks, keeping me in place.
Holy shit, he is an amazing kisser. I'm glad I can remember this one and I now understand why I took him back here. I open for him when his tongue brushes against my lip and I let him explore my mouth before I explore his.
He isn't dominating like i thought he would be, he lets me savour his touch and he shares it with me.
He really does care.
I pull him as close as my stomach would allow me.
'Just like I remember' he breathes pulling back and resting his forehead on my own.
'Yeah, well, I don't remember but I assume it was like this and that's the reason we ended up here in the first place' I pant out.
'We never kissed until coming here' he laughs.
'Really?' I ask.
'Yes, after a few shots, I took you home because your friend had ditched and you invited me up but it was this exact same place where we made out for the first time' he explains.
'Oh' I say and Sam laughs stepping back. 'Were you drunk?' I ask.
'Not as wasted as you but yes, I brought you back in a cab and you told me to come up with you so I did'
'How did we end up making out? Did I throw myself at you because that could be really embarrassing if I did' I ask too scared for the answer.
'You asked for a good night kiss' he smiles.
'And we ended up in bed?' he nods.
'You did seem to be sobering up and I was sure you would have remembered at least one of the times'
'Nope, nothing' I sigh. I wish i could remember.
