The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 27: Emma
We stood like little kids not knowing what to do as we waited for our bags. We'd left the plane like robots. Once in a while we would look at each other and smile. I didn't know what to say to him. "Hey Sebastian, it was great but we're back home now, so no more bumping and grinding. Okay?" Kent and Paul made all the noise. They were like little kids that had taken too much candy. They got ex-cited about every little thing. Whereas Sophia was quiet. She'd spent most of her time sleeping on the flight. Then as we landed and need-ed to get off the plane, she used me as a balance so that she wouldn't break her neck as she tried to walk in her three-inch heels. She was apparently even more tired than I was. We should have had a little girly chat, but I assumed that she wasn't in the mood for it. I knew that I wasn't because I'd started to feel anxious about everything, including Sebastian. I would glance at him, but he would avoid my stare.Finally we collected our bags and it w
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 28: Emma
As soon as we got to her place, Sophia invited me to come in. Just what the doctor had ordered. As I walked down her hallway I looked at my phone. There was a message from Sebastian and my heart skipped a beat. I thought for a minute that he would regret the way we had parted and want to say something more. Don't forget about my check-ups!Seriously, the man had gone from someone who didn't want to be examined to being obsessed in the space of minutes. Men!"Your brother drives me mad!" I screamed out as she passed me a glass of wine. It was a bit too early in the evening to be drinking, but the way I was feeling, I couldn't even think about telling her to take away the glass. I needed to get rid of this feeling right now."Steady on!" She laughed as she watched me fin-ish the glass in one go and then put it on the table. "I'm not giving you another glass if you want to get drunk.""Sophia why is your brother such a prick?"She shook her head and said, "About that. D
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 29: Emma
"Hey." I smiled at him as I entered the room. I had every x-ray and blood test booked for him today. We hadn't spoken since we'd landed in JFK and left the air-port like strangers. I'd sent him a text telling him about today and he replied back saying, he would be here. And he came. Just like he had said he would. I should have been happy, glad that he kept his promise. But I felt completely lost, because I didn't know how to behave now and by his shyness, avoiding eye contact as I walked through the door, I had a feeling that he felt the same. "I thought that you would be here when I got here," he whispered as I drew closer to him as he lay on the examination bed. "I just came in to make sure that everything's set up for you. I just organized the tests, and besides, Wen-dy's capable of doing them herself. I don't need to be here." I was rambling and looking down at the floor. Pathetic!"Besides Wendy explained everything, right?"He corrected me. "You mean Shery
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 30: Sebastian
"Hey little bro, how you feeling?" Sophia smiled as she walked into the room. That was the thing about my big sis; she always had a smile on her face. No matter how I was feeling, she had a way of making me feel bet-ter. "So-so." I tried to wave my hand, but between the blood tests, radiography and everything else that Emma had organized for them to do today, I was exhausted. "That good, huh?"I nodded. "Where's Emma? I've been looking for her every-where.""Dunno.""Oh," she said sadly. "So, did you guys talk?" I shook my head. "Well, I think that you guys should talk."She was the fixer, the one that tried to solve every-one's problems. I used to wonder as a kid if she had some magic wand that hid how she was really feeling inside. She must have felt sad occasionally. No one could be happy all the time. Or maybe I took all the miserable genes and she had only the happy genes. Sheryl stepped in and my heart skipped a beat. Part of me had hoped that it was
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 31: Sebastian
"So, what do you think about Emma then?" Sophia said from the back of the car. She hadn't even come to the examination room. It was as if she was hiding or something. "Is it because she's older or something? I just don't get it. We really connected in Vegas..." I was staring at the window and thinking about the fact that two days ago I was on top of the world in that room and then after Emma just did a disappearing act on me. I felt as if I had flatlined."You see, the problem is she's scared about losing her job," Sophia said and I felt as if I was listening to a broken record. Emma had already made that clear. Maybe this was some schoolboy crush. Shit, I had wanted her for so damn long, hadn't got her of my mind as a kid and maybe as an adult those thoughts had just transformed into lust.But if that was the case and it was really true, then how come I couldn't get her out of my mind?I felt as if I had used superglue on my heart and it just couldn't come off unless I did
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 32: Emma
I couldn't believe it. Dad had just phoned to say that all his problems were over and thanked me a thou-sand times. Thanked me for what? That was what was on my mind. I was exhausted, having been through every one of Sebastian's injuries and procedures over the years. I didn't want to miss anything. I wanted to make sure that the conclusion was right, and that he could play next season. Sure, I had gone a bit overboard and the conse-quences had I found something had run through my mind. There was nothing worse than finding out that an-other doctor had done a procedure incorrectly and being forced to flag it. It would have hurt not only their reputa-tion, but mine too. I could be seen as an underdog and the sports-medicine business was already so damn politi-cal. I did find a couple of red herrings, but after dig-ging deeper. I found nothing to be wrong with his treat-ment and his after-treatment, which was just as im-portant. He had gone to the right number of physiothera-pist s
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 33: Emma
"Hey," he must have said about twice. I had the reports in my hand. Ready to show them to him and give him a piece of my mind about him calling my dad and sorting out the debt. Now, I felt a different type of emo-tion, one that didn't sit well with me. I started to just let it rip until he said addressed the pretty blonde that was standing by his side: "Okay Zoe, if your mom needs anything then let me know." She nodded and smiled; she did the same with me too as she left the house. "Emma, are you okay?" he asked, and I felt stupid. Like a little kid I said, "Oh you got a new one al-ready?" I hovered around the door. Not wanting to go in, but just to give him a piece of my mind. But I couldn't. I didn't say a word as I stood there with one hand on my hip ready to give it to him. He'd used me. I thought that he cared. Shit, I even thought about my career and giving it up for him and in the space of one week he had found a replacement.I really was a fool. He looked b
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 34: Sebastian
She was scared-it was clear to me now. Zoe had come over to get her brother's ball. I suspected that ei-ther he had kicked it over or she had, just to get my at-tention. One hour later we were still in my garden later just trying to figure out which bush it was hiding in, and Emma showed up at the door. She had fire in her eyes when she saw Zoe. I should have told her then that it wasn't what it seemed, but some part of me thought that she deserved it. I had been calling her every day for over a week.Not one phone call back. The funny thing is that she actually thought that I was with Zoe. She didn't have a clue what she did to me. I wanted Emma, no one else. I hadn't wanted any-one else since I first saw her in the dorm. No other girl had made me want to commit. I didn't sleep around, but as soon as I heard the words, "Are we dating?" that was when I dropped them like a ton of bricks. But Emma was different.I couldn't get her out of my mind. Her dad had already calle

Four months la-ter...I woke up to an empty bed and pouted as I sat up, the sheets sliding off my naked body."Bastard," I grumbled, slipping off the bed. "You could have woken me up."I wasn't really annoyed with him, though. I knew he had an important game today or he wouldn't have woken up so early without me. I went to the bathroom for a shower, then hurried to get dressed. Picking clothes was becoming harder, though. For the moment, my dresses were still fine, but I knew I would have to buy some bigger clothes soon."You're growing really fast in there, aren't you," I murmured, rubbing my rounding belly.It had been a shock, finding out I was pregnant, for Mason and me both. It wasn't something we planned, we just got careless with me missing my contraception, but when the news came, I wasn't as against it as I would have thought. I had always felt uneasy at the thought of a little person growing inside me. Not so much because it would be uncomfortable or because I was w
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 49: Epilogue, Part 8: Mason
With a groan, I rolled to the side, so I wasn't crushing Sophia, hissing when my soft, sensitive cock slipped out of her. I kept my arms around her, rolling her with me, holding her close to my chest.My whole body felt exhausted. My chest wanted to heave for every breath, but I controlled it, taking in slow deep breaths to get my lungs to stop screaming at me. I probably stopped breathing near the end there.Shit, I really did let myself go if I can't even do this without breathing hard. Maybe I really should be going to my physiotherapy sessions...?I sighed as my eyes slid closed, my body relaxing. I couldn't remember the last time I was this content. I slept just fine when I was alone, in fact, I was asleep more than I was awake these past weeks, but it was often fitful. I went to sleep in a bad mood and woke up in a bad mood, making myself more and more depressed eve-ry day. Besides, having a warm body close again to me felt amazing."Mason?"I heard Sophia call my name,

I slumped back against the door as I panted, trying to catch my breath. My legs felt weak, the one I had around Mason's hip trembling. I knew I couldn't keep the stance I had for long, but Mason wasn't moving, ei-ther, and he was still inside me, so I couldn't bring my-self to move."Are you going to move or what?" I huffed once I caught my breath, pushing lightly over his shoulder.Mason took a deep breath, then chuckled. "Yeah, I'm moving."Slowly, he pulled himself back. My breath I hitched as his softening cock spilled out of me, Mason letting out a hiss."Sensitive?" I guessed.He nodded, sighing as he reached down to tuck himself back into his pants."Are you gonna let me go, too, or...?" he teased, arching an amused eyebrow.I moved my leg from around his hips, holding on tightly to his shoulder as I put my foot on the ground. It was a good thing I was holding onto him because when I got both feet on the ground, my legs buckled."Shit."How long had it been sin
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 47: Epilogue, Part 6: Mason
Fuck.Sophia was one of the last people I wanted to see at the front of my door because I knew how stubborn she could be when she put her mind to it. I didn't want her there for a lot of reasons. I was embarrassed at how I'd let myself go, at how quickly I'd changed in such a short time. I also wasn't ready to face the world and people again, and I didn't know if I would ever be ready. Hell, I hadn't spoken to my own family yet, and I didn't see that happening any time soon.What do I do...?When I decided to lock myself away, I'd had a plan. And in this plan, once I felt I could pick myself up and give life a try again, I would reconnect with the peo-ple I was currently pushing away. If I had to be honest to myself, Sophia wasn't only on the list, but among one of the first people I would reach out to, besides my parents and even above my best friend. Sophia was Sebastian's sister, but if she really stopped talking to me, I knew that bastard wouldn't help me. No matter how
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 46: Epilogue, Part 5: Sophia
He flattened his lips and looked away. I wasn't sure whether or not to be relieved. On the one hand, he wasn't trying to push me away, but on the other, he wasn't exactly inviting me in. Could I assume he was wavering? Or would it just make it easier for him to send me away when he wasn't looking at me?I sighed audibly, and he turned back to look at me. His expression wasn't any more inviting, though."Have you been eating okay?" I asked. "And I mean a real, homemade meal, Mason. I can cook you dinner?"It was the only thing I could bribe him with. I wouldn't make chef of the year, but my food was good, and Mason never had a problem with my food.He didn't answer immediately, raising my hopes.Then he killed them just as quickly when he shook his head. At least, until he spoke."I don't need you to cook for me, Sophia. I'm fine with what I have to eat right now.""Take out?" I guessed. "Frozen foods?"His gaze moved away at the latter, and I frowned at him. I was tempt
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 45: Epilogue, Part 4: Sophia
I was a little intimidated by the glare Mason had aimed at me, but I wasn't going to back down. Besides, I knew he wasn't going to hurt me, anyway. Not just be-cause of our past, but because he wasn't the kind of guy that got off on beating other people up, even when they were annoying."I came to visit you," I said, tilting my chin up and giving him a stubborn frown. "Now move aside and let me in."He let out a little, sardonic laugh. "Aren't you a bit forward for someone that just came to visit?" he chal-lenged, not moving an inch. "Make me move, Sophia. It's the only way you're coming in here."I frowned at him. I hadn't forgotten he was about as stubborn as I was. It was the only reason I had left him alone this long when I knew he was doing something stupid. Too soon and he would just send me away again, too long and I might be late in providing any sort of help.I might have waited too long already, I thought to myself in worry.He didn't let me see a thing inside befor
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 44: Epilogue, Part 3: Mason
It would be a lie to say I didn't mind. I wasn't in the mood to see anyone, but how long had it been since I left the hospital? I had been alone in all that time, and I'd been a people person before. I had a feeling being alone was only making me even more depressed, but I didn't feel like doing a thing about it, either. I had friends, and if none of them were going to reach out to me, in my current condition, I didn't have the confidence to be the one to reach out to them."Now I really need that beer," I grumbled to my-self, leaning forward, bracing my hands on the couch to push myself up.With a grunt, I rose to my feet. I stayed in place a little, but that was just because I'd been sitting too long. I'd moved to the couch with a six pack because I thought it would be enough for me. I'd been sitting since I woke up sometime mid-morning, and I hadn't moved much in the hours since then. My ass must have fallen asleep, because it ached a little, too, and I winced as I rubbed it and

Two years later...It was still fucking daytime, but with all the cur-tains closed and windows covered, the room looked dark. Not that I gave a damn what time it was outside, because I didn't plan on leaving my home.There was a part of me that was angry for locking myself in, and feeling sorry for myself. I still wouldn't leave the house, though.I didn't have the courage to leave, after all. Not anymore."Fuck, this is boring," I grumbled, drinking the last of my beer, then crushed the can and tossed it in my trashcan. The can went in, and I smirked, but it quickly dropped with a sigh as my eyes turned back to the TV. "If they're gonna show this kind of play to people, they at least need better players."Like me, I thought, then cast that thought away, too. It was a dangerous thought to have for me recently, but sometimes, I couldn't keep myself from wishing.I was watching a football game, and it was already in its last quarter. I wasn't on either side, but the team on t
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 42: Epilogue, Part 1: Sebastian
We were walking down the tunnel from the locker room. It was the final game in the season. Just like Emma had said, nothing could go wrong. I was fit, and nothing was holding me back. The vacation was just what I had needed. Time away from here and to spend more time connecting with the one woman that I had loved practi-cally my whole life. She said that we had moved too fast; that we needed to take it slow, but love waited for no one and as I headed out into the bright lights of the field, I thought about her sitting in the stadium carrying our child. She was going to be a mom; the last few months had been hard for her. She was used to being a doctor. Worrying about her career and now she didn't know what was going to happen to that. I had kind of had an idea. She had been going to meetings, even conferences just to keep herself busy while I had been at games and practices. The idea of be-ing a stay-at-home mom felt too small for her. Something that she had never considered, but
