Always The Hero (Plot Twist, I'm Pregnant 2)

The girl was a brunette, of course. He always made comments about that—like I should change my hair color at his whim because we were together. I never thought it was a deal breaker.

Our bed smacked against the wall, and both of them were grunting like wild animals. He had sweat on his back, so they had been going at it for a while now. Why did I notice that? It was the last thing I should have been focused on.

“Fuck yeah, you like that, bitch?” He sneered at her, and I flinched because I never wanted to be spoken to like that.

She seemed to love it because she leaned up on her forearms and bit his lips.

“Yes, Daddy. Just like that. Harder. More!” She groaned like she was in the middle of a porn movie. Her pleasure didn’t even sound real.

And Daddy? I would have called him that—if he asked. Hearing it on her lips sent a shiver of disgust through me. The bottle of wine dropped from my hand, and it landed on the floor; the sound of it shattering didn’t even break the shocked daze I found myself in. Red wine soaked my feet, and the dark green glass flew everywhere. It almost cut my feet. I don’t even know if I would have noticed it if it did.

“Oh my god! Brian!” The porn star in my bed pushed my boyfriend off and covered herself up with my blanket.

Brian’s head snapped in my direction, and the color drained from his face as he pulled out of her, his cock wet, and rolled off the bed. “Lucy! I can explain, okay? Baby, listen—”

“Baby!?” The sex doll gave him a confused stare. “You said you were single!”

“I’d offer to introduce myself, but I know exactly where your hand has been. I’m Lucy. Brian’s girlfriend of ten years.”

“Ten…” Her eyes rounded, and her hand flies to her mouth. “I didn’t know. I’m sorry!”

She started to cry, big messy tears, and the only thing I could think about was how I needed to change the sheets again. Actually, I’d burn them.

“She’s nothing, baby. I promise. Listen to me,” Brian wrapped the sheet around his waist and walked around the bed, his cock was hard, and I could see through the white sheet that he wasn’t wearing a condom with this girl. “Janette,” he turned to the girl he had been having sex with. “Wait.” He tried to keep her from leaving by reaching out to her, but she got out of bed and bent down for her clothes.

His attempt to grab her arm resulted in her yanking it away. “You’re an asshole,” she said, tugging on her shirt. She had tears in her eyes, but it didn’t exactly break my heart.

I was obviously in shock. Still trying to process what I was seeing. The fact that he was in our bed with another woman—not even bothering to use protection.

“I can’t believe you. You liar! I don’t mean anything? After you’ve been fucking me for six months, Brian. Six!”

Having sex without protection was our thing. We were each other’s first. We were supposed to be each other’s last.

“Six?” The word left my lips on an exhaled breath. I glanced around the apartment and noticed how all of my things were put away and only his were out. I usually worked until midnight on Wednesdays. So this was what he did. “Get out,” I finally managed to say. I pointed toward the door, and my temper started to catch up with me as my chest rose and fell in rapid breathes from the effort of trying to hold myself together. “Get the fuck out!” I screamed. “Get out of my fucking apartment!” I threw his cologne at him, and the woman took the opportunity to dash out the door, only in panties and a t-shirt.

He dodged the cologne and held up his hands to try and placate me. “Baby, it wasn’t what it looked like.”

I grabbed the lamp and tossed it at him next. The bulb broke as soon as it

hit the floor. “So, you weren’t fucking her?” I threw the Rolex watch his father got him and it slammed against the wall, right behind his head. “You’re a real piece of shit!”

“You know I love you. It’s just been always you. You know? I slipped okay. I made a mistake—” He took a step closer.

“No.” I grabbed my jewelry box, lifted it above my head, and grunted when I slung it through the air.

“Lucy! Oh my god!” The wooden box hit his foot, and he collapsed to the bed, groaning and holding his toes in pain.

Good. I hope I broke them!

“—I love you.” His words came out as a whine. “I’m sorry. I never meant to hurt you.”

I pressed my palms to my eyes when they started to burn. I’m going to cry. It was all catching up with me now. “You never loved me. You have been cheating on me for how long?”

He didn’t say anything.

“How long!”

“A few years,” he mumbled, tightening the sheet around his waist.
