There's No Way

Cheater

[Camila's POV]

"Baby, as much as I love having sex with you...I don't think I could go another round if I tried," a naked, sweaty Shawn panted as he fell back onto the bed. I sighed and kissed him tenderly.

"Sorry, baby. I knew I would probably get extra horny during pregnancy, but I didn't realize it was going to be this...insane."

"You're insatiable," Shawn laughed. "And for the record, I'm a big fan of horny Camila..." He kissed the tip of my nose. "...but unfortunately you being pregnant does not also boost my stamina." We both chuckled and soon enough we had fallen asleep for the night—our bodies exhaustion finally catching up with us.

The next day was our ultrasound appointment where we would find out the sex of our baby. I was still fully convinced that it was a boy, and Shawn held steadfast on the belief that it was a girl. It was a Friday, so Shawn had to work but he had taken the afternoon off so he could go to the appointment with me and then we could go home and spend the weekend celebrating. I spent the morning tidying up around the house because our realtor was going to show our house to a couple while we were at our appointment.

Around 1:00, I got in the car and headed to go pick Shawn up from work. When I walked into the reception area, Alice told me that Shawn's meeting was running a bit late but that he should be out soon. I nodded and took a seat in one of the chairs by the front desk while I waited for him. While I waited, two young women who I didn't know but looked vaguely familiar walked in from what I assume was their lunch break. I typically try not to listen in on other people's conversations but the lobby was so quiet it was kind of impossible not to.

"You know that new girl? Jenna? I hear she's hooking up with Mendes..."

"No way! How do you know? Spill!"

Yeah, bitch. Spill.

"Well there's always been a rumor going around in the office that he takes girls up to the storage room for quickies..."

"What? You're joking!"

Shit. There's been rumors about that? Did people catch on to us? Fuck.

"Well, the other day Camden and I went up there to get more printer paper and saw him and Jenna walking out which normally wouldn't be that out of the norm...but get this—they had the door closed."

"Why would they need to close the door unless..."

"Unless they were fucking? Exactly."

My blood began to boil, but the worst part is I didn't know what pissed me off more—the way that these mystery girls were talking about my husband or the fact that he may or may not have cheated on me. He would never cheat on you Camila. You know that. My rational brain knew that there was probably a totally logical explanation as to why he and this Jenna girl were in the storage closet with the door closed, but my irrational and hormone-ridden pregnant brain couldn't help but think about all the things he and I had done with the door closed in that storage closet and the thought of him doing those things with some other girl made my heart sink. He wouldn't. He could never cheat on you. Before I could think about it much more, he stepped into the lobby with a wide grin on his face.

"There's my favorite girl!" He immediately wrapped his arms around me as I desperately tried to swallow down the tears that I could feel trying to escape. "Are you ready? This is such a big moment...I'm so excited." I quickly cleared my throat to diminish any emotion that may have broken through my voice.

"I'm so ready." He grabbed my hand and we walked out to the car to head to our appointment. I tried to play it cool during the drive, but I knew Shawn was catching on to my short answers and lack of eye contact.
