“Noah!”
I kept a steady rhythm. Scarlett wrapped her leg around my body, pulling me deeper. It felt like we were becoming more attuned to one another—ready to move forward.
I fucked her. I made love to her. I was falling in love with her.
Scarlett’s arms wrapped around my back, scratching me. I continued pounding my pelvis into her, my shaft driving in and out of her pussy. We climaxed together, holding onto one another for dear life. When it was all over, I fell onto the bed next to her, bringing Scarlett into a tight embrace. I felt her warmth seeping into me and looked at her beautiful face as she fell asleep.Chapter Thirteen - ScarlettTwo Months LaterIt was crazy. One day, it was like a switch flipped in Noah’s head. He was happier, brighter, talking about his feelings and emotions. Ever since the night he invited me to his bedroom, it had felt like we were a real couple. Nothing was really discussed, but I started spending every night in his bedroom, and we got more comfortable showing affection around Livvy. Things were just looking up.
One morning, I woke up, and Noah was already out of bed. I heard the shower going, so I guessed he was in the bathroom. I could use a wash, so I got out of bed and quietly snuck into the bathroom. I could hear him moving around in the shower. I was getting excited thinking about climbing in there with him. I took off the small amount of clothes I had on before carefully pulling the curtain back, to avoid too much water escaping, and hopping in.
“Hello.”
Noah hadn’t turned to look at me when I stepped into the shower with him. He looked over his shoulder when he heard my greeting, smiling. Looked like he was playing hard to get. I rested my hands on the small of his back, bringing them up until I reached his shoulders. Wrapping my arms around his torso, so I could caress his chest, I gently ran my fingers over his wet skin.
“How did you sleep?”
“Perfectly,” I sighed, resting my head on his back.
Noah decided to turn around then, so I had to step back a little. We looked at one another for a few seconds before he pressed down on the top of my head, getting me down on my knees. His erect cock was at eye level. I licked my lips before wrapping them around his head, pushing my mouth forward. The shaft was smooth and thick, throbbing slightly in my mouth. I bobbed my head back and forth, Noah’s dick sliding in and out of my mouth.
Hollowing my cheeks, I sucked on his dick as well, wiping my tongue on the head to lap up some of the cum leaking out. I kept going until he came in my mouth, I swallowed as much as I could. Whatever leaked out of my mouth was washed away by the water. When the stream stopped, I got back on my feet and gave Noah a big kiss.
His body pressed into mine, and I could feel that he was still aroused.
I broke the kiss to look down, smirking. “We should probably do something about that,” I motioned with my eyes.
“We probably should.”
Hope had Livvy, so Noah and I were able to keep the morning leisurely. Hope would take Olivia every now and then, so Noah and I could spend some alone time together. Noah had left the bathroom, and I was sitting on the toilet, taking a pregnancy test. I had already gotten my period twice these past couple of months. It was starting to get to me. Noah wasn’t pressuring me or anything. In fact, he seemed really chill about the whole thing, but the thought still lingered in the back of my mind.
Enough time had passed, and I checked the test.
Negative.
My heart sank. I knew it wasn’t my fault, but I was still feeling the weight of the bad news. I washed my hands and went back to the bedroom, falling onto the bed. Noah looked over at me.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah… the test came back negative is all.”
Noah reached out for my hand, and I let him take it. “Are you sad?”
“A little but mostly frustrated. I just thought I’d be pregnant by now, and I’m just… frustrated. I don’t know how else to say it.”
He kissed my head. “No, no. I understand. I’d love for it to happen too, but you don’t have to worry because I’m here for you, and it’ll happen in good time. I’m sure. Let’s just enjoy the now.”
It was so strange seeing how much Noah had changed. He was calmer, and he had a great way of grounding me.
“It’ll happen when it happens,” I whispered to myself.***
It was a few hours later, and Hope was on her way to drop Olivia off. Noah and I spent the day lounging around and simply enjoying one another. I took his advice to heart. Having a baby wasn’t the crux of our relationship anymore.
