It has been almost 9 months since JP and I announced to our best friends and my parents that we were married along with me announcing that I am pregnant. Surprisingly, they were super excited that I'm pregnant. JP was the happiest of all. We were both hoping for a little boy and guess what? I am having a boy.You are probably wondering how Will and Maggie felt about all of this. Let's just say we were both in court fighting for custody of our children. Of course, JP and I won all the way around. They had nothing on either one of us. Which there was nothing to have on us, to begin with. We are both fit parens plus we are married. Therefore we have the girls the majority of the time but we still let them go stay with their other parent. We are not the type of parents to keep them away from their mom/dad."Mommy! It's time to get up. Me, J

"Good morning, Mrs. Price." I open my eyes to see JP lingering over me.I smile at him, "Good morning, Mr. Price."Flashback to the beach" I don't want to push you. I know what you said about us. I know you said no labels. But Liv, I don't want anyone else but you. We hand out. We go out. We have amazing sex." He stops and turns me so that I am looking at him. "We do everything that a couple does. Hell, we even have two children who are like sisters to each other. McKayla loves you. Alyssa loves me. Why can't we just make this official? I'm not asking you to become dependent on me. I know you can handle yourself. I know that better than anyone else. I love you, let's get married."

"When are you just going to give in and be with him?" Becca asks as we are sitting on the beach watching the guys and kids play in the water."I am with him. What do you mean?""Come on, Liv, you know what I mean. It's been a year and you still haven't given in to him.""I told all of you, I will do this on my own terms. Right now, I am enjoying what we have. I don't want to put labels on ... who is that girl?" I sit up looking out at this chick who currently had her hand on JP's arm.Becca sits up to look. She then smirks at me. "I don't know, but it shouldn't matter. Right?"I could feel the jealousy hitting hard as I sit back and try to act like it isn't bothering me.

It has been nearly 2 months since that night at the club. Ever since that night, JP has been coming to my house every weekend. Some weekends we just hang out with the kids and then other weekends, we are kid-free and you know what that means. You are probably wondering how the emotional part of this is going. That part is very complicated. Of course, we are catching feelings with all the time we spend together but I refuse to become dependent on any man again. I know at any minute JP or myself could meet someone. No, I'm not looking. Is he? That I can't tell you. I don't ask because I don't want to know.Alyssa has been staying with her dad and Kasey a good bit. She tells me all the time, "Mommy, I love you but I want to go to daddy's." What am I supposed to do? Tell her no. Tell her I want her here with me? I think she likes going over there so much because Kasey keeps her niece a lot.

I look around, trying to find the guy from earlier. At first, I didn't see him but then I found him. I frowned realizing that he and another girl were making out in a dark corner. Oh well."Hey." JP comes up."Hey" I smile at him feeling the alcohol go through me. I was already a little buzzed. So as I'm standing here looking up at him, I have all kinds of feelings running through my body. And of course, he knew it."Let's dance."I grab his hand and follow him out to the dance floor. At first, we are just swaying to the music, not touching. I needed to feel his hands on me. I step closer to him just as he grabs my hands and pulls them up and around his shoulder so they were wrapped around his neck. We sway to the music looking at eac

This past year has flown by. In a couple of months, Alyssa will be 3 years old. Will, has moved on to someone else. He asked her to marry him last month. So now he is currently engaged. Does it hurt? Of course, it does, but I have become fine with just focusing on Alyssa and myself. Alyssa goes to daycare and I work in a doctor's office now. There are times where I want to pack up our things and move far away, but that's just not possible. For one, my parent's bought me this nice house for Christmas 2 years ago. Then, Will is here. I can't take Alyssa from her dad. The two of them have this bond that I can't even explain. Alyssa asked me a few days ago if she could go stay with her dad. I know she didn't mean permanently. I mean she's only about to be 3, but just her being able to ask me that broke my heart a little.The front door opens and Alyssa comes running in, followed by Will and

Every day for the past week now, Ethan has either called, texted, or come by my home. Me being the stubborn person I am, has been ignoring him. I don’t know what to say. He shouldn’t have even approached me that night in the club. He could have apologized and went on with his business. I almost kissed him for christ sake!My phone begins ringing once again. I look down to see Ethans name pop up. Well actually it says dick head.Sighing, I swipe up to answer.“What do you want from me?”“I just want you to give me the chance to explain everything. Will you please hear me out?”“Fine. I am about to head out to get something to eat. Meet me at Olive Garden in 30 minutes

“That was amazing.” I smile at Ethan as we begin to head out of the restaurant.“I’m glad you enjoyed it. And thank you for coming out with me. Are you ready to head back home or would you be up to doing something else?”I stop walking and turn to face him. “What did you have in mind? I don’t think there is much to do around here on a Sunday night.”Ethan smiles taking a step closer to me. I hold my breath as he is very close to me.“Well I can think of a few things we could do.”I manage to speak. “I’m not having sex with you.”Ethan laughs, “I didn’t say anything

The next day my friends jump all over me asking a million questions about Ethan. I didn’t give them a chance to ask anything last night, as I just wanted to have those moments to myself for at least a little while.“Who was he?”“What did y’all talk about?”“Are you going to see him again?”The two of them were throwing questions out left and right before I finally had to just tell them to shut up and give me a chance to actually talk.“His name is Ethan. He is actually the owner of the club. I don’t know if we will see each other again or not. We didn’t exchange numbers or anything like that so if he does want to see me again he has the resources to find me. I’m not going to chase him

For me sitting at home on a Saturday night is completely normal. I have a few friends but they are all into going out just about every night and partying. I go with them occasionally but for the most part I just sit at home and read a book. A book, especially a romance one, is my happy place. My friends keep asking me how I expect to meet someone and have some romance of my own if I just sit at home and keep my face glued to a book. I guess in reality it is easier to sit here and imagine me being the main character in the book instead of going on and having that chance of facing rejection. Rejection is something I am just not good at.Just as I am about to sit down on my couch and open up my current read, my door bell rings. I already know it is Jennifer and Kassie. I look down at my phone to see that it is 7:30. Yep they are right on time to begin their begging of the night.
