Bye bye baby (EDITING)

Mafias and necklaces

"I like you Zoe Alexandra Jones, I really do" I suddenly blurted out and for a minute I was nervous. Nervous that she will reject it. I was looking and watching her intently, she let out a small hum.

"I like you too, Max. More than the trilogy of 50 shades of Grey that you read, combined" she opened her eyes and she sat up not letting go of my hand on her belly and she repeat it that she likes me looking at me straight in the eyes. My tensed body suddenly relaxed from the relief. I moved closer and kissed her passionately. She let out a moan and continued to kiss her. I want to savor this kiss and her. I want to enjoy and feel this moment with her.

She broke the kiss and I looked at her speechless. "Sorry, but I'm started to get wrinkly from the water" she said laughing. I nodded and helped her stepped out of the tub carefully like a precious china doll. I helped her patted her body dry and I carried her bridal style in her room. "By the way I did not read the 50 shades of Grey" I said and she let out a rich laugh.

I watched her dressed and lather her body with lotion. "Can you please stop watching me! You can totally see my stretch marks and batman wing arms." She said and glaring at me. I laughed and walked closer to her "I know that you have stretch marks and flabby arms but it doesn't change anything on how I look at you" I said and suddenly hugged her.

"What? I looked like an orca?" She said like a child. "No, you are still beautiful, even with the stretch marks and flabby arms, beside I like you racked up baby" I joked and cupping her butt making the atmosphere change. I kissed her cheeks and lips to take the anxiety and insecurities away. I was glad that she accepted my kiss. "So lets get dinner, shall we milady?" I said and she nodded. "I forgot to tell you, we are going out. Wear a dress" I winked at her and left the bedroom.

Zoe's POV

When the door closes, I let my pent up thoughts and feeling burst out. A huge smile rose up on my face and my cheeks were red as an apple. I can not believe that Max said that he really likes me. It was different from before, the way he said it to me earlier was filled with emotions, sincerity and it was genuine. I know that he said it to me before but now I can feel it is true! I slapped myself so I can stop with my ramblings. It feels like I'm in highschool again and my date is waiting for me outside.

I scanned my closet and took out a peach lace dress. I put it on me and it was above my knees not too conservative and not too provocative. It emphases my bump because of empire cut of the dress and belt just in between my breast and bump. I think this is the last piece of clothing that will fit for this week hopefully for the next month. I slipped on a white pumps and grabbed my purse.

I walked straight to the living room and saw that Max was talking on his phone and he smiled. I frowned, who is he talking to that makes him smile like that. Now I'm starting to become a jealous cat. He turned his head to me and his smile went wider and he was in awe. He walked closer to me. "We are going on a date Ms. Jones" he said and he leaned forward kissing me on my cheeks "and you look wow!" He smiled "cat got your tongue Mr. Taylor" I smirked.

"I'm bewitched" he said and he lead me out of the apartment. He helped me get in the car and he seated on the driver's side "by the way, where are we going?" I asked curiously. "It is a secret" he looks like he planned it all out. The drive was silent, a comfortable silence and we pulled out in a restaurant.

Instead of entering the front door which is by the way already closed, we walked to the a dark part at the side of the restaurant. We passed an alley and a row of garbage bins, they were big where you can fit a body inside. Max was holding my hand and I spoke "if you are going to kill me, please don't put my body in one of those garbage bin, toss my body at the Hudson River, please" I sounded worried and squeezed his hand. He was laughing while walking "it is better than killing you baby" he joked and I punched his arms.
