Old Flames

Chapter 32

Amanda rolled out of bed and waddled downstairs to see who was knocking on her door. She knew exactly who it was judging from the time on the clock. She smiled and put a little pep in her step.

When she got to the door, she was a little disappointed to see it was Aaliyah. She sighed, usually Jayceon would come by to go walking with Amanda, but this morning it was aaliyah. The woman that ruined it all.

Sure Amanda was thankful for what aaliyah was doing for her, but she just wanted one thing and that was Jayceon. She missed him, she wanted to call him hers. She wanted to start a family with him, but aaliyah was messing that all up. She was ruining everything.

"Amanda open the door." Aaliyah banged on the door. Amanda sighed, she unlocked the door and opened it.

"Hey girl." Amanda said with a fake smile. Aaliyah smiled back, "Hey, you ready for your morning walk? Jayceon wanted me to come because he wanted to take JJ out for a boys day type of thing."

"Oh yeah, let me just go put on some decent clothes and I'll be ready." Amanda said. She was a little disappointed and felt like calling off for the day, but she knew she couldn't do that. She let aaliyah in while she walked upstairs to get dressed.

She washed up, put on a pink t-shirt and some yoga pants with her Roshes. She put her curly hair in a ponytail before grabbing her phone and keys off her night stand.

She waddled downstairs and saw aaliyah on the phone. She knew it was Jayceon from the way she was smiling. She scoffed before walking to the refrigerator and grabbing a water bottle for herself.

"Okay baby, see you later." Aaliyah said before hanging up. Amanda rolled her eyes.

"You ready?" Aaliyah asked. Amanda gave a fake smile before nodding her head.

The two headed out the apartment and outside to begin the morning workout.

Later that day Aaliyah was on the couch watching tv with Lauren and Niko. Her and Niko have became really good friends. He gives really great advice and he's good help around the studio and they hit it off pretty good.

"So how's everything?" Lauren asked as the tv went in commercial. Aaliyah shrugged, things have been neutral for her, her marriage is back on track, her baby is healthy, it's just one thing that is throwing her off and that's Amanda.

"I'm fine, but you know my woman's intuition is telling me another. I went to Amanda's earlier in replacement of Jayceon. Her vibe with me was weird, like she was hoping I was him. It's crazy." Aaliyah mentioned.

"Here we go with this crazy bitch again. And to think if this baby is Jayceon's you'll have to deal with her crazy ass for 18 years." Lauren mentioned.

"Look girl, don't stress yourself out over this. Just worry about you and your man and your baby. You know Jayceon only wants you, you have nothing else to worry about." Niko encouraged. Aaliyah nodded, he was right. Jayceon only wanted her, he proves it everyday, but that still didn't mean she wasn't going to bring it up to him.

Aaliyah didn't say much after that, and after a while, Lauren and Niko left. Aaliyah took that time to get up and clean before Jayceon got home.

After wiping down the coffee table and vacuuming the floor and washing up the few dishes, she was done. She turned off her tv and walked upstairs to shower.

After washing up, she got dressed in a black tank and some yoga pants with her fuzzy socks. Her hair was in a high ponytail and her face was bare of any makeup.

She walked out of her room and downstairs where she saw Jayceon walking in with jj and Amanda. She was curious as to why Amanda was here, but she was pretty sure it was another one of her schemes.

"Hey baby." Jayceon said as he walked over and kissed her. She smiled and kissed him back before taking a sleeping JJ from him.

"Hey Amanda." Aaliyah smiled, still curious as to why she's standing in his house.

"Baby Amanda is going to be staying with us for a little while. She gets lonely in her apartment and ya know since her due date is close, I didn't think it was a bad idea if she stayed." Aaliyah was pissed, but she didn't let it show. Instead she just nodded her head with a smile.

"Okay, well I'm going to go put JJ down." She said before walking off. Jayceon knew she was mad, but he'll talk to her later he turned to Amanda and told her to follow him. He showed her where she will be sleeping and gave her a few house rules before walking in his bedroom to see aaliyah bent over looking for something.

Jayceon couldn't help but stare at her nice firm ass.

"Liyah. Baby you mad?" Jayceon asked. Aaliyah didn't answer. Jayceon sighed, he walked over and grabbed her by the waist pressing himself to her.

"No Jayce move." Aaliyah said trying to push him away. She was mad and she wasn't up for sex, especially with Amanda in the house.

"Baby I'm sorry, I thought it was a good idea. If I knew you would feel like this I wouldn't have invited her to stay." Jayceon said, the look on his face was sad and pouty. He didn't like it when aaliyah was mad at him.

"I just wanted to talk about that first. I mean plus I have a feeling she wants you all to herself. This morning she didn't look to excited about mf being there and she kept asking about you..." Jayceon sighed.

"Baby I only want you. Don't worry about her okay?" Aaliyah nodded her head. Jayceon gave her a soft peck on the lips making aaliyah smile.

"I love you." Aaliyah said as she wrapped her hands around his torso.

"I love you too baby, more than you'll ever know." He spoke seriously. He couldn't wait to make her his wife, the love he has for her no other woman can compare to. He knew he was wrong for cheating on her before and he promised to never do it again because he almost lost her, and he can't risk that again.

Aaliyah smiled, she let him go and walked over to get in bed. Jayceon smiled as he watched her climb underneath the blankets. He grabbed some boxers for him to sleep in before going to take a shower in their joined bathroom.

When he walked out aaliyah was still awake. She couldn't sleep without Jayceon by her side.

"Cuddle?" She asked. Jayceon chuckled before walking over to the bed and climbing in. He wrapped his arms around aaliyah and kissed her shoulder.

"Goodnight baby." He whispered.

"Goodnight." Not long after the two were fast asleep.

Meanwhile Amanda stayed up watching tv and thinking. She really wanted Jayceon, she craved him and it wasn't fair that aaliyah had him. She doesn't deserve him, she doesn't deserve the house, the cars, the big ring on her finger, none of it. It was supposed to be hers, Amanda thought.

She sighed as she felt her baby girl kick. She placed a hand over get stomach and smiled, "Mommy loves you bug, and your daddy loves you too. And when you're born we'll be one happy family."
