We had already said it all. Nothing else needed to be said.
Chapter Thirty-Nine
I washed up in the bathroom. As I felt his warmness seep through my entire body, I realized with a smile that even if I wasn't pregnant already, I would be soon enough if we kept at it. My hand went to my belly and I felt a tingle run through me, realizing that I definitely wanted it.
I took my time, and James was waiting for me when I came out. He was still naked, which was just fine by me.
“Do you need to use it?” I asked.
“I used the other bathroom,” he said. “Did you eat breakfast with Anne? I'm starving.”
I shook my head. “We just had tea. Did you want to go out and get something?”
He shrugged. “I can just order something and have it brought up here.”
“Room service? But you live in an apartment building,” I said.
He rolled his eyes. “Allie, I don't know if you knew this, but I'm really rich. This is a nice apartment building for rich people. We have what is called a 'concierge' which will take care of all of it for us.”
I crossed my arms over my breasts. “Hey, jerk face, I'm not brand new to the lifestyle. Your step-dad was pretty well off before you ever were.”
His mood seemed to darken a little. “I know. I also know that one thing we've got to talk about is how we're going to broach this topic to him eventually. I mean, whether you think of me as a brother or not-”
“I don't,” I interjected quickly.
He smiled. “I sure hope not. Regardless, I do think of your father as if he's my father. And I'm the son he never had. If he finds out about us in the wrong way...” He trailed off.
“Look, we don't have to talk about this right now,” I said.
“No, we don't. The thought of disappointing your father is upsetting enough to make my stomach sink, and I know I've got to get some food in me if I want to keep this weekend going smoothly.” He smiled. “What do you want? I'll call and order.”
We went back and forth on what to get for a while, finally settling on a Thai pizza from a pizzeria nearby. I had never had it but James insisted it was delicious. He opened up his laptop on the kitchen table and looked over it “I've got a couple emails and stuff that I need to take care of, do you want to just hang out out here?”
I gave him a naughty look. “Actually, I'll just get in that bed of yours again, if you don't mind.”
“I certainly don't mind at all. Don't get started without me,” he said with a wink. I giggled and started down the hall to his bedroom. “Hey, you.”
I turned back to him.
“You know, I hate to see you go, but I love to watch you walk away,” he said, his eyes moving back down to my ass. I laughed and kept walking, this time put a little extra sway in my hips just for him. It made me happy to be seen as so sexy by James.
I grabbed my phone and crawled under the 3000 count sheets on his bed. I quickly checked myFace for anything new. Nicole posted some pictures of her at a house party last night. Anne had some pictures up of last night's concert. Tessa hardly ever updated her status unless it was something important, but I wished that there was something that would explain her behavior on the phone earlier.
I pushed the thought out of my mind and went to my emails. An email from my dad asking how I was doing, since we hadn't talked since Christmas. He asked about the shopping trip that I took a couple weeks ago and I laughed, knowing that he wasn't really mad about it and that I had nothing to worry about. Still, I'd have to write him back some time soon.
Other than that, it was just junk. Without thinking, I went back to the picture I had taken on my phone earlier of the pregnancy test. Was it a line or wasn't it? I knew I wouldn't be happy until I took another test. I'd never be sure about this one. A few moments later, James walked in, and I quickly shut off my phone's screen and put it on the night stand. He was still naked, but now he was holding a pizza box.
“I got a pizza here for 'Al'?” he said, his voice sounding like he was reading the name off the pizza box.
I pulled the sheet up as I sat up in the bed. “Yes, I'm Al. You're awful cute for a pizza delivery man,” I said.
“And you're awful cute for an 'Al'. The pizza comes to twenty-one dollars. Plus tip, of course.”
“Oh my, twenty-one dollars? I'm not sure I have that much. I don't suppose you and I could come to some sort of... arrangement?” I asked, sounding as seductive as I could. I bit my lip and fluttered my eyelashes.
“Ma'am, this is a sausage lovers pizza with extra meat. You sure you don't have that twenty-one dollars?” James asked, setting the pizza down on the dresser and advancing toward the bed.
I let the sheet fall. James grinned as he continued toward me on the bed. He put his knee up on the edge and pulled the sheet off of my naked body, his eyes devouring me. I had never understood the appeal of the pizza-man porno until right now.
