Married to The Fame

Chapter 5

Mrs. Porter's POV:

I couldn't sleep due to the thought Nicole was still with Carina. I tucked in the kids a while ago and I got into bed because Nicole doesn't get off from work until midnight. Her shifts are brutal, sometimes even twelve hours. But, as I recall now, I don't even know if she slept while she worked for me. Nicole was just so good at it. She still is. The sound of the front door disturbed me from my thoughts and I immediately felt happy because I knew it was her.

A warm body fell onto the bed next to me and she wrapped her arms around me.

"Hey, sweetheart."

She hummed to the sound of my voice and I just smiled at the way we could make each other feel.

"How was your first day?"

"Well..." She hesitated for a while.

I turned around to face her.

"Well?"

"Carina is very... nice."

"Nice?"

"Yeah, maybe too nice if you ask me."

"What does that mean?"

"She kinda undressed herself in front of me." Jealousy flew right through my abdomen and all I wanted to do was take that bitch's face off.

"YOU SAW HER NAKED?"

"I didn't look."

"Oh really?" I jumped out of bed, not believing she didn't see anything.

"Yes, really. I kept pointing out that I'm married and I don't want anything to do with her. But I don't think she's going to stop. Carina likes me." Well, duh, what's not to like? Wait, no. She's mine.

"You can't go back to that job." I pointed out, clearly showing my jealousy because I knew she would just keep hitting on her.

"Diane, don't be ridiculous. I have a six- month contract and I have to do it."

"Then we will get you out of it. Georgia will find a way, she's good at that stuff."

"I can't do it, and you know it. Just give up. I will manage to cope with her." She stood on her knees and crawled towards me, grabbing my hand.

"How? I mean, she's so hot and great. Wouldn't you be tempted?"

"I'm offended. And not to the fact you just pointed out she's hot, for that I'm jealous. But the fact you think I would ever cheat on you. I mean, come on, how could I ever cheat on my Goddess?" Her words made me feel better. But that still doesn't resolve the fact that Carina Rye was hitting on my wife.

"You smug little..." I kissed the hand she held mine with and then I hugged her. We rarely just hugged, but when we did, it would be the most amazing thing in the world.

"I love you, love." My Australian girl whispered into my ear and then kissed me on the jawline.

"I love you too, Nicole."

...

I woke up in the morning after Nicole and I both just crashed last night. We slept in each other's embrace and any worries I had, were gone. At least for last night.

I was sitting in the dressing room while Tina was doing my make-up and we talked about my situation.

"I don't know, Tina. I trust Nicole, but Carina isn't that innocent. I know it."

"You just have to trust Nicole, it doesn't matter what that bitch is thinking."

"But Carina is so persistent and stubborn. She will not give up."

"How do you know that? Maybe she'll get tired of Nicole turning her down and just fire her or something."

"I just know."

"How, are you psychic or something?" Tina laughed at the thought that I was talking crazy. The fact was I knew Carina too damn well. But I just couldn't tell Nicole.

"Because... Carina and I used to be together."
