The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 37: Sebastian
"God, I can't remember the last time that I was this happy," I said as I grabbed my sister. Mom was having a barbecue to celebrate her being cancer free. I offered to do it at my house, but she wanted to do it at home, Wwith the family. I could tell that Emma and Mason be-ing invited made them both feel part of the family. Then again, Mason comes to every damn family event. People used to laugh and ask if he was my girl-friend; he was the only person that would come with me to an event that I would show up with more than once. Every girl I did bring, and there were very few, only came once or twice and then no one saw them again. No one bothered asking if they were coming back. I had a reputation and not a very good one. But, I had a feeling that they knew Emma was different. Besides, handing in her notice hadn't gone down very well. I felt like a shit, making her do it. I wanted to go with her, but she said that it wasn't a good idea, that it would mean that she could prob
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 38: Emma
"Hey girl, you okay?" Sophia said as she picked up the phone. We were due to go on vacation the next day and I was going insane with so many things going in and out of my brain. Maybe it was the pregnancy hormones that had me all messed up. So many things had happened in a short space of time that I needed to talk to someone. Anyone that wasn't Sebastian that is. Call me self-ish for not wanting to talk to him about it, but up until now I had felt that we had gone from just establishing our relationship to me having to make a whole heap of sacrifices. I didn't know if I could add another one to the list. "Yes, could we meet up? I just need to talk to you about something?""Why are we whispering?"Oh because, your brother's in the next room and I'm going to make up some story about why I wanted to leave the house. Gosh, I couldn't even leave the house without permission. This whole thing was nuts. He was taking over my mind, body and soul..."Emma, are you there?"I nodded
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 39: Emma
"Hey, I thought you would be late." I smiled as I reached the door of Starbucks and Sophia just happened to be in front of me. I still hadn't looked at my phone; I was too scared to see what it would say. "Well, I had to come early. My baby brother is practically in tears thinking that you're going to leave him or something. That's not what this is about?" I shook my head. I wasn't going to tell her on the doorstep of Starbucks with customers behind us that I was pregnant. So I did my little fake laugh and said, "Let's go in and talk.""Phew!" she sighed with relief, but she still didn't have a clue what I wanted to talk about. How could she be relieved?I thought about making up a story and then just leaving, but I was in too deep. I had already realized that I had upset Sebastian by leaving so abruptly. Now So-phia was scared that I was going to leave Sebastian and all the while my phone was in my hand and I kept think-ing, just look at the damn message and find out what
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 40: Emma
It was our first vacation together and I knew that he was going to ask what was wrong. He kept going on about it on the way there. Subtly hinting about me not having my period for the last two months. What is it with men?Why don't they say exactly what is on their mind? He asked if we should stop at the store on the way to the airport, because I forgot to pack something. I ignored him, pretending that I didn't know what he was on about. I could see the disappointment on his face when I said that there was no need. Was he upset, because he knew? Or was it the fact that I didn't tell him?The season was starting and he needed to get his head back in the game. He had been jogging and doing exercises with Mason when he had managed to get out of bed. Which hadn't been often. The thing is I knew that I wanted to be with him. There was no doubt about that in my mind, but the thing that got me was the fact that we had moved so quickly.Kind of too quickly!I had to think a
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 41: Sebastian
I had wanted to spend the whole two weeks in the room. But I drew the curtains, grabbed my clothes and left. She was calling after me, screaming my name. I couldn't believe that she had been so selfish. All this time she had been keeping it quiet, because she was thinking of getting rid of it. This was our first official fight and I hated myself for behaving this way. After all, a woman has rights too, but what about the guys? I had millions in the bank. I could have hired someone to look after the baby if she wanted to go to work. So be it. I had never thought about being a dad until now, but the whole idea that I could potentially have been one and never known about it, made me fucking angry. "Don't go."I ignored her plea. I opened the door and left. I couldn't talk when I was angry; all the things would come out the wrong way. The best thing to do was to be on my own. I felt as if I was going to explode. I didn't make it far before she was behind me. I had just reached 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
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 43: Epilogue, Part 2: Mason
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 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

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,
The Quarterback's Baby Chapter 48: Epilogue, Part 7: Sophia
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
