The next morning I awoke in Seth's arms. Stretching I looked at the alarm clock on the nightstand seeing it wasn't even 8 am yet. As much as I wanted to snuggle back up to Seth I needed to use the restroom. Laying flat on my back I looked over at Seth and felt my heart catch. I needed to get my ass up cause laying in bed with him I was catching feelings. Who the fuck was I kidding I had already developed feelings for him.

Sliding out of bed I went to the restroom before heading to my own room. My clothes were scattered from the bedroom to the main room and I couldn't help but laugh as I picked them up piece by piece. Seeing the phone laying on the coffee table I walked over to pick it up and saw that Seth's phone was lighting up. I couldn't not see the name that flashed on the screen, Tina, as in Christina. Shaking my head I grabbed my phone and walked into my room.

I refused to think about if what Seth said last night was true or not. For now, I would concentrate on t

  • Broken Promises   In the Club

    I stared back at my reflection in the mirror, the girl staring back at me had clearly lost her mind. I really didn't want to go to a club, I didn't do clubs by choice, and I had a feeling something bad was going to happen tonight. I had straightened my hair taking my time doing it right so it was perfect, I took my time with my makeup ensuring that it was flawless.Pulling down the hem of my dress I frowned as I slid on my heels. Closing my eyes I took a deep breath, I wasn't ready to go out and face Seth. I was nervous to go out and meet him. I knew it was stupid I mean I had worn this outfit to a damn club in Dallas, but for some reason, it was different this time. Looking in the mirror one last time I opened the door and stepped out into the main room.Seth was wearing a pair of creased down jeans and a starched white t-shirt. As he looked up I stopped walking frowning, "if you can wear that, why do I have to wear this dress."Seth grinned at me biting his bo

  • Broken Promises   Going Home

    Sitting with my legs crossed on Seth's bed I tried not to cry. Saturday had arrived out of nowhere. Friday we had been lazy and stayed in bed most of the day, and now this morning I sat watching as Seth packed his bags. His flight left a good 3 hours before mine. I would have rather been the one to leave first, I think it would have been easier, for me at least. I knew it was time for me to check back in with reality, but I didn't want to. I was content to stay in this hotel room with him forever.Seth looked up at me as he zipped his bag closed, "why are you over there pouting?"I frowned at him, "because I'm going to miss your ass that's why."He grinned at me walking to the bed and sat slightly in front of me, "I told you I would wear you down."I rolled my eyes leaning my head against his shoulder, "you will call me tonight right?"He nodded kissing my forehead, "yeah, you know I will see you again right? This isn't goodbye forever."

  • Broken Promises   In the Media

    It took me a good week to fully get over my time with Seth. I had walked around the house in a zombie like state for a while but Brooke helped to pull me out of my pity party. I started going back to the gym because I could get on the treadmill and run away from everything and everybody. The one plus was I was getting summer ready, although I wasn't sure exactly how much swimming I would get done in NYC. If I was home I would be in a pool every day. I didn't know if anyone in New York even had a pool in their back yard.March had started off pretty good, I had quit working at Brooke's dad's insurance office and was now working from home. For now, I was working from my bedroom, but I loved it. I had never thought people who worked from home actually did anything until I actually started. I stayed busy but it was nice to be able to set my own hours and work around my schedule.Seth and I talked either in text or by phone at least once a day. I still missed him but it was

  • Broken Promises   Wicked Games

    By the time my flight landed in New York, I had talked myself into believing that I was just here to look at an apartment. I had talked myself into believing that I wasn't excited to see Seth. My confidence was all built on a lie but it was one I had told myself enough that even I was starting to believe it.Flying wasn't bothering me anymore and I found my bags without too much grief. Seth had told me he would have a car waiting for me, I would have rather have taken a cab but I was kinda glad to see my name on a sign when I exited. Handing my bags to the driver I hopped in the back almost feeling like a kid. I mean in my opinion I should be sitting up front, not in the back.The car took off and I looked out the window, it wasn't raining but the sun wasn't out either. It was just an overcast day that left you wondering what it would do. Traffic was backed up but it didn't bother me. I was in no hurry to face Seth. I imagined all the conversations I would have with him

  • Broken Promises   This Could Be Home

    As much as I wanted to crawl back in bed and just lay with Seth after we got out of the shower he insisted that we go ahead and go look at the apartment so we would have all day Saturday to spend with each other. Frowning I laid in the bed with my head in his lap as he called Devon, one of his assistants, to get things in order. His fingers ran through my hair as we waited on Devon's call.Seth had already told me that Devon had gone and seen the place a couple of weeks ago and he would be the one with us today. It must be nice having money and people who would jump when you snapped. Frowning I realized that I seemed to jump when Seth snapped too. Maybe it was just his personality. Either way, I was ready to see what he had found that he thought I would like.We took precaution as we left the hotel, Seth had arranged for us to be picked up at the back loading dock. Once in the SUV he grabbed my hand and sat back as his driver pulled out into the traffic. "I think t

    The next morning it was obvious Seth was much more excited about my new place than I was. He was on my ass trying to get me to make a list of things I would need to stay at the apartment. Sitting at the bar I groaned laying my head down on the counter, "Seth really all I need is my bag, I mean it's not like I'll be there for more than a night."Seth was standing on the other side of the bar frowning at me, "you told me yourself you take your classes online. You work from home. Why can't you go ahead and move up here?"I arched my brow at him, "Umm besides the fact that Brooke would kill me? I mean I don't want to be up here alone Seth."He sighed walking over to sit on the stool beside me, "it's only two months plus I will come to see you as much as I can."Shaking my head I looked over at him, "all of my stuff is in Texas, Seth."He shrugged like it was no big deal, "so take your flight home, pack what you can bring with you, and anything e

  • Broken Promises   Leaving is Hard

    We made it to the apartment a little after 2:30. Walking in the bright living room I still couldn't believe that this was mine, well somewhat mine. Turning around I looked up at Seth grinning, "this place is even better than I remembered."He smiled as he carried our bags down the hall and deposited them in my bedroom. Walking in the living room I smiled as I looked out the windows, I was still in awe of the view I would be able to see every day. "Are you going to be able to keep yourself entertained while I'm gone?"Turning I nodded at Seth, "I do it every day besides you won't be gone long right."He shook his head no leaning down to kiss me, "a couple of hours at the most. I'm going to put some money on the counter, give it to the delivery guy when he drops your stuff off ok."I nodded at him, "ok, well stay out of trouble, if you know how." He kissed me once again before he turned around winking at me before he shut the door. I could

    My flight home had gone smoothly , the flying didn't bother me at all but the ride home always wore me out. Brooke and Christine were both waiting for me at the airport. I was bummed because I wanted to talk more to Brooke about what was going on. Brooke wasn't very talkative and it surprised me but it was still early for her so I let it go and instead talked to Christine most of the way home. I had a sinking suspicion that Brooke had told Christine who I had been in New York with. I couldn't prove it for a fact but something was off.

  • Broken Promises   Remi Nicole

    With Christmas behind us, the baby's due date was fast approaching. I was miserable now and Seth thought it was hilarious to bring up the fact that I seemed to wobble when I walked. If I thought I had been tired before I obviously didn't know tired.I had never put much thought or belief in the "nesting" stories I had heard friends talk about or read in books. But with two weeks before my due date, I found myself, going into full nesting mode. I organized and refolded or hung up all of the baby's clothes. Organized blankets by colors and patterns. Even the many boxes of diapers had been stacked in the closet by size all facing the same way.Seth had gone out of town for New Year's, he had asked me if I needed him to stay but I told him I would be fine without him and I was. I spent my time decorating rearranging or sleeping. My cravings were gone and now I had almost no appetite. I don't think my stomach had room for anything but the baby. Getting up and down was no easy

  • Broken Promises   Christmas

    December was moving way too fast for my liking. I stood in front of a massive Christmas tree that hadn't been there the day before frowning. I wasn't ready for Christmas, I had no idea what to buy Seth. I mean it's not like he didn't already have every possible thing he could ever want. I had given his assistant a list of things to buy for my family and friends and now I wished that I would have just gone and bought it myself. It took the fun away from Christmas.I understood why Seth didn't want me walking around shopping though, I was huge pregnant and didn't have that much longer to go. Turning the corner to the kitchen I grabbed a cup of coffee and returned to stand back in front of the tree. It was pretty, just not my style, not that I would have told Seth that. I had no idea how I could have managed to sleep through the house being decorated. It was only 9:30 which was early as hell for me to be up. I preferred to sleep till 10:30 or 11.Walking down the hall I w

  • Broken Promises   Thanksgiving

    With the baby shower behind us, I could now appreciate it for what it was. I think my apprehension had been from the disaster of my previous gender reveal. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulder and I could now worry about other matters, like spending Thanksgiving with Seth's mom. I had no real reason to worry about that but I didn't know what she thought about me yet.When the time came I was nowhere near ready. I had hoped my doctor would say I wasn't approved for travel but I wasn't so lucky. I knew I needed to be up packing my bags for our trip but I didn't want to get out of bed. I felt like I had just laid down. Seth his bags packed and ready before my feet even touched the ground. He arched his eyebrow at me, "you know if you would start going to bed earlier you wouldn't be so sleepy."I frowned at him, "if you would stay on your side of the bed I wouldn't be up all night."Seth threw my bag up on the bed as I made my way to the bathroom, I ign

  • Broken Promises   Baby Shower

    At 30 weeks pregnant, I was already over the whole pregnancy thing. My belly was huge and it was hard for me to even get up out of bed anymore. I didn't know if I could go another 10 weeks. I was tired of the "are you sure there is only one baby in there jokes." I was tired of people thinking my stomach was an open invitation to feel for the baby. I was turning out to be grouchy as hell in my last trimesterAlthough nothing had been said I had a feeling the "dinner" Seth was wanting to take me on tonight was actually going to turn into a baby shower. I don't know how I knew but I just did, he had been asking too many questions about things I knew damn well he didn't care about.It wasn't that I didn't want a baby shower, I just didn't want one today. I didn't want to get up, I didn't want to get dressed, I just wanted to lay in bed and sleep. I felt like we had just had the gender reveal and that had turned out to be a huge mess. Brooke and I had cleared the air but things

  • Broken Promises   Tired

    It had been two weeks since Seth had come back from New York and I was already for him to go back out of town. He had tried to talk to me about what had happened and I had refused to listen. He told me repeatedly that nothing had happened and I told him to stop talking about it.He had been glued to my side. Today was my first time out of the house without him.I couldn't believe I was already 26 weeks but at the same time, I couldn't believe I was only 26 weeks. I felt like I had been pregnant forever. Seth had wanted to come with me but I snapped at him and told him I was more than capable of driving myself. I don't know if he finally realized I'd reached my melting point or if I had just shocked him by going left. I didn't know and didn't care, all I knew was I could finally breathe again.Don't get me wrong he still left and went to the studio, he just never stayed gone long. If he stayed gone more than a couple of hours he would call and if I ignored his call

  • Broken Promises   Welcome Home

    My flight home had been miserable. I was tired and cranky, my flight had been delayed due to bad weather, and Seth and I had said our goodbyes in anger. Every time I felt better about our relationship something always came along to fuck it up. Was it a sign that we just weren't meant to be?Seth hadn't come back to the hotel till almost 5 am. I had never truly gone into a deep sleep so I heard him when he came into the room. I laid still listening for any signs of his movements or where he was. When the shower came on I grabbed my phone checking the time. I don't know exactly what made me do it but I got on Twitter and searched for Candace.It didn't take me long to find her. I felt my stomach drop and her last tweet, "when he has to leave your bed." It was short and there was no reason for me to think she was talking about Seth but I did. Pulling up Instagram I searched for her again, it was harder to find her but I did, she had the same damn thing posted there but wi

  • Broken Promises   Don't

    After Seth was gone I laid around most of the day, Brooke had called around lunch and I talked to her for a bit. We mostly talked about Dutch and his Twitter rant he was having for the day. I think she had realized that he still has some major growing up to do. The boy had no filter and no chill mode whatsoever.I ate a pretty basic lunch, a simple club sandwich, and fries had done the job. After googling restaurants I decided to try one called Republique, it was French and I had no idea if I would like it or not but I liked its picture. I figured Seth would veto it out if he didn't like it but when I text him he only responded with and ok.It was around two when Seth came back and I was still in the same exact spot I had been when he left. Walking in he shook his head, "looks like we will be flying out in the morning."I nodded at him as he sat down beside me, "that's fine with me, but what else?"I could see by the look on his face that he had more news

  • Broken Promises   What Makes You Happy

    Going to the club when you are pregnant is absolutely no fun. You can't drink, the music aggravates you and the baby, and people stare at you. I hate when people stare at me. I feel as if they are judging me and guess what they are. Now I know being with Seth causes lots of stares and unwanted attention, but being with Seth pregnant in a club brings so much more.Do you think the extra attention bothers him? Do you think he even notices? That answer is a giant no, not until you point it out cause you are uncomfortable and he acts like it's just everyday life, and I guess for him it is.So here I sit at a table beside Seth who is clearly on another level contemplating ways to make him take me back to the hotel. The whole atmosphere just wasn't what I was feeling. I had tried to stay home but Seth put on his sad face and I found myself agreeing like an idiot. Why couldn't he have taken me out to eat, these boneless BBQ wings were good but not what the baby was craving. I h

  • Broken Promises   Can We Not

    The first night in LA We just chilled in the hotel which was fine with me. Most of the afternoon had been spent watching tv with a good majority of the time the tv watching Seth. It didn't really bother me, I had finally got my rest and for the first time in a while wasn't overly sleepy.When Seth did wake up he ran out and grabbed us some burgers and Cajun fries. He was in a playful mood and as much as he aggravated me I couldn't stay mad at him. It seemed that was usually the case between us. He constantly found new ways to aggravate me or piss me off but he could smile at me with his goofy ass grin and I found myself smiling right back at him. It drove me crazy but I loved him.The next morning he had left early, when I woke up I ordered breakfast and took a quick shower before it arrived. As I sat and ate I decided to give Brooke a call. She surprised me for picking up after only one ring. I grew a little suspicious when she told me she was in LA. I had thought for s
