Lauren couldn't concentrate all through, she kept thinking about Lucious and what almost happened between them, and how he just went into hiding. She couldn't tell what he was hiding from, but somehow, she wish she knows, and she could help him ease all his problems.She noticed it was affecting her concentration at work."Why do I even care? She asked out loud, while trying to get a file to Doctor Carter. "Are you okay? He asked, after she dropped the file and is about to leave.Lauren was shocked. Does it mean she is that obvious that everyone around could see that she isn't okay? "I am fine, why do you ask? She inquired."I don't know, but you look lost, but if you say you are okay, no problems". trying not to sound too attached. "Try and check on the patient in ward five, before you leave for Houston". He tells her, and she nodded.She is permanently on morning shift, she will be around till Pamela resumes, before she leaves for school, and then she will retire home to face h
Weeks later, Lauren was already getting used to Lucious's constant temptation, of showing off his body, but never coming close to her. It was now boring and annoying to her, even though she still craves to have him close. But one major thing was that Lucious seem to be avoiding her since then. She hardly hear him tell her to come spend the night in his room, and she never bothered to be a caring nurse by going to him, she loves the fact that he was avoiding her. One early morning, as she was getting ready to go to work, Lucious showed up behind her, with a red eye. He looks sad, and she could tell.He looks like he has been drinking a lot, Lauren looked worried, and she forgot all about enjoying her freedom."Are you okay? The concern look on her face was charming. And he smiles."Yes I am okay. You have to come home earlier, there is a place, I would like you to go with me". Upon hearing him say that, Lauren blushed, even though she doesn't know where he plans to take her, she st
When they got outside, he was busy checking her out, with a concerned look on his face, that even got Lauren uncomfortable. "Are you okay? Did they touch you? I am so sorry, I had to tell Derick to come get me". Lauren looked shocked and she had to shift a little from him. "Is he really apologizing? She whispered."You say? He bent down to hear what she said, but she shook her head."I am fine, just that I was embarrassed, but thanks for coming through for me". She tells him, and he nodded his head. She has something else to say, but she decided against it, she isn't ready to spoil the mood, she might ask him now, and everything about him will change, which will in turn, hurt her, so she swallowed her thought. "Let's get out of here". He says. While they were at the back seat, he moved close to her, while Lauren moved away, getting close to the door, she doesn't want him to think she is being a baby. Even though she so wish, she could rest her head on his body."Why did you ch
Throughout the party, the look Lucious was giving her was causing her to blush. She didn't need him to say he likes what he sees, she could tell from his look and the way he was all over her. She smiled to the camera at will, and she didn't mind any other thing. Even if it is for the night, she was happy, and that is all that matters to her.Pamela called her severally, and she couldn't take her call, because she was in the company of so many prestigious people, and the place was also noisy, of she takes her call, she woukd end up shouting, and maybe not hear anything, but the moment she was able to get away from them, she went outside, where it is less noisy, to call her back. The way she was calling, she must have something important to share with her."What I am seeing is it real or some game your psycho husband is playing at? She asked as soon as she picked. "Don't worry, when I come to work, I will tell you all about it". Lauren tells her, and ended the call, as she could alrea
She started with her earrings, as she gently placed them in his waiting hands and he broke his eye contact with her, just to keep the earrings. Lauren was thinking he would stop her, but he turned back and started looking at her. Then she started off with the shoe she had Worn, gradually she was done removing almost everything except her dress, she was struggling with the zip, but Lucious turned her swiftly, though he paused, to take a good look at her flare in admiration, then he closed his eyes for a flit moment, and dropped the zip in a hurry, she didn't want to turn to face him, because she was almost naked, but he turned her back to face him. "Now you don't have anything stopping you from taking off the rest". He tells her, and she pulled down her dress from her left shoulder, followed by the right shoulder, and when she was left with nothing more, the dress found it way down, and she stepped out of it, while still looking at him. She was left with her bra and panties. They wer
That was all she had to say to get him to lose himself to her, like an angry tiger. He came back to her, and started kissing her lips again, this time with a much hungrier vibe. She felt she was going to lose her breath, and maybe die, if he doesn't stop, he was pulling her close, inserting his tongue inside of her mouth, causing her to suck on his tongue, while he kisses her desperately. She have never been kissed before, even in her dreams, the kisses were not this intense. He wasn't acting like himself, that is, running his hands round her body while he kisses her, Maybe those were the times, he wanted to just tease her and go away. But she likes it that way, so she decided to help him. She pulls his hands, and placed them on her breast. He fondled with them, folding them and caressing them, causing her to moan hungrily.Seeing her reaction to his hands on her breast, he asked. "Do you like it? and not waiting for her to answer, he went back to kissing her, she had to hummed h
Upon saying that, he started laughing. While Lauren felt like the ground should open and swallow her up. She quickly got a snack and a drink, and offered him, but he shook his head. "I think you need it more". He says, and she smiles,"Where is that boy anyways? I need to see him. He says looking around, he was expecting him to also come out the same way she did."He is sleeping". She says, thinking he would start leaving already, but that only caused him to laugh out loud. "That means you won the fight". He says with a smirk, and she opened her eyes wide, wondering what fight he was talking about. She hasn't fought with anyone. Seeing her confusion, he started explaining. "You see my dear, during sex, the one that is able to get up and get himself or herself a drink or a snack, is ready for her another round, but the one that falls asleep, is the weak one". Lauren closed her eyes shy, with her hands on her face, she couldn't look at him for a while, because of the crazy things he wa
Opening her eyes the next morning was because of the scream from Cynthia, she was so angry, seeing the both of them in bed. she couldn't stop screaming. At first, Lauren thought she was dreaming or something, she totally forgot about the door, so when she opened her eyes, it was Cynthia, standing by the door, looking as shocked as though she had just seen a ghost. That was when Lauren realized she had forgotten about the door and slept.Lauren quickly got up, and that caused Lucious who looked like he still needed to rest to get up too. He didn't try to cover himself up, he wore his short, and dragged Cynthia outside, shutting the door to give Lauren some privacy to get dressed."Are you insane? How dare you come to my house and scream like a mad dog. I will have to add some restrictions to that door, so that you are never allowed in again". Cynthia was stunned, but she still needed to ask."Why are you both in bed, naked? She asked, him, while Lucious robbed his eyes, to be fully aw
Lauren couldn't wait for him to meet her up, she started running down to greet him, even though he was signaling to her to be careful, she was so happy to see him, that she didn't notice the log in front of her, she hit her leg, just before reaching him and tumbled over, hitting her stomach on the floor, and passed out immediately.Lucious rushed her in panic, frantically trying to get her to open her eyes all to know avail."Please save the baby". She whispered, and that was when Lucious panic some more, then he realized, staying down wasn't the solution, he carried her into his car, and drove off to the hospital. If he had known, he would have just taken her call,she wouldn't have felt the enthusiasm of seeing him back that way.If he had known,the would have just stayed back at home, and they would have both spoken over the phone, she would still be standing.All these and more were his thought as the nurses rush her to the emergency room and wouldn't come out. He didn't know whom
Lucious didn't leave immediately. He hid behind an oak tree, facing the house, he took pleasure in watching and admiring how Lauren nursed her mother and tossed her to sleep, before coming to stand by the window. At first, Lucious felt she was looking at him, because of how she was smiling, but then, he noticed that she was the necklace he had gotten her. "She is thinking of me". he says, with a smile. He felt like going back to her, they could both sit outside the house till dawn, but that would be selfish of him, since she would be going to work and to school the very next day, if she doesn't get enough sleep, how is she supposed to focus the next day. He waited until she rubbed her eye in tiredness, he knew at that time, she is about to retire, but he still stayed back to watch her leave the window side, before he started making it to his car.When he got to his car, he sat, without touching anything for what seem like forever. His mind, a whirlwind of desire and emotions. "Why ar
"I want to go back to my house, and if you are not going to come with me, just because you got married, then, you can stay with your husband, I will go alone". Her voice were loud and very angry. Lucious knew that this time, he was not going to have the last laugh. Lauren turned to look at him, but he was quick to look away at his phone, he was too scared to see what her eyes held."But mother, it is still the same if you stay with us, we will all be together as one big. family. my husband has needs, I cannot just abandoned him? She says, trying to convince her again, but Mrs Fonder didn't look back at her, she closed her eyes, and pressed her lips together. Lauren saw that it was fruitless talking with her about it, she decided she should meet with Lucious instead, they could work something out.She met him half way, and one look at him, told her that if she say that thing she wants to say, it will break him, but she was shocked, when he looked up at her, with her smile on his face,
Lauren was initially confused as to why they didn't want her to leave the house. When she woke up, and looked around her, and didn't see Lucious, she didn't feel bad, she just felt he probably just stepped out and will be back soon, but after waiting for what seem like forever, she decided going to the hospital to be with her mother, would be ideal, but then, they wouldn't let her. she hates being held against her own will, it makes her feel like a slave. She also didn't want to disobey Lucious, since the guard wasn't rude, he was very nice actually, and he explained calmly to her, that the bosses needed her to rest. She touched her belly and smiled. While in her room, thinking about what their lives would be like, when their baby finally arrives, she heard a knock on her door, and came the guard's voice almost immediately."Boss says I should bring you to the hospital". She knew there was no way, he would allow her drive, but it was better than not allowing her out and all. She has
Going back to the hospital the next day, Lucious made sure, he didn't wake Lauren, he didn't want to do anything that would stress her, as a matter of fact, making love to her that night, had felt like stress, though he had wanted it so much, he still felt he was stressing her. He stayed up all night watching her sleep, When ever she seem distress, even while sleeping, he would become worried.The little insect that came close to her face, was immediately killed, when he could have shuhh it off. He didn't want anything coming close to her. As he walked into the hospital, he could only ask himself. "Is this what it means to be in love?He probably had never been in love, but he had been with Sydney, he loved her, he may not have known how to show it, but he surely did love her. Maybe we love differently, maybe it is a different kind of love. He thought to himself, as he opened the door to Mrs Fonder's room, he felt a new surge of hope, especially when the old woman smiled at him, and
When he stopped, they both had a long stare at each other, and then all of a sudden, they started laughing. They laughed so hard that Lauren soon had tears in her eyes."Why are you laughing? he asked, still laughing himself."I really don't know why I am laughing, I guess I am laughing because you are laughing". She replied, still having the smirk on. "What about you, why are you laughing? She asked him too, and he answered the same thing. telling her, he is laughing, because she is laughing, they both ended up laughing hard again, and holding each other close, and finally concluded, with a passionate kiss.They both left Mrs Fonder at the hospital with Pamela, while they went home, to cement what it is, they were feeling for each other.While on the ride home, Lucious tells her the complete truth."You know everything written about me in the papers are not entirely true". he says, as he kept stealing glances at her, while they converse. He wanted to make sure, she was having no doub
Mrs Fonder's eyes was wide open, looking at the troubled man in front of her. A man she has come to love, for the sake of her daughter. She couldn't tell, if his troubles has to do with her daughter, but she was willing to hear him, since he has been nothing but nice to her. Especially, since he seem to feel comfortable, talking with her. They have shared so many things, within the few hours he spent with her, and she has gotten to know, the sort of person she is.The doctor walked in, still having the same smile he had, when he announced Lauren pregnant. he handed him a tiny paper, and said his congratulations again.Lucious stared at the tiny slip of paper in his trembling hands, his heart pounding like a drum echoing in an empty hall. The words were simple, yet they carried the weight of a thousand storms. Pregnant. Positive. His breath hitched as he leaned back against the couch, the room suddenly too small, the air too heavy. He was going to be a father. Everything seem to be ha
Lucious was so scared, he didn't even take note of the waste all over his shirt, he carried her in a bridal style, and rushed her, following the lead of one of the nurse, that rushed to help out. The doctor was immediately called, and he followed her inside. Lucious wanted to go in, but he was stopped by a nurse."I am sorry, but you cannot go in with her" Lucious nodded, and stood outside, but he couldn't hide how scared he feels. He kept panting and pacing around the corridor, while waiting for the door to open. Anytime the door opens, he wants to know what is happening with her, finally the first nurse that had opened the door for her, to be taken in, walked out the door, and she had a smile on. She has been revived, we are running series of test on her, to know the possible cause of fainting, so you don't have to worry". She says, looking excitedly at Lucious, she even touched his arm seductively, but Lucious was too busy, with his thought, that thinking about what she just did,
Lauren slept on the floor, without knowing what the time says, she only woke up in the middle of the night. She couldn't quite explain why she was sleeping so much, even when she wants to keep her eyes open, she will end up sleeping. She grabbed her purse and headed down the stairs to the door, she needed to go and be with her mother, but she was stopped by a guard."What are you doing? she asked, surprised that anyone would stop her from going out in her house."The boss says, I shouldn't let you go anywhere, if you wake up late". he says, and she checked the time. It was pretty late, but she thought Lucious had already traveled, how come he still wants to dictate what happens in her life. He had told her anything can change, after five years, so she will have to live her life like a prisoner till then."So where is your boss now? She asked, folding her arms across her chest."I don't know, but that was the instruction given". he replied, and went back to his duty post. Lauren tried
