“Yeah?” He turned around and saw her sun tanning, mentally thinking she needed it.
“Hey sweetie.” He leaned down and gave her a soft kiss, sitting down on the edge of her chair.
“Oh, it’s sweetie now?”
“It’s always been. Why would you think other wise?”
“I talked to Julie.”
“And? You’re gonna believe everything she tells you?”
“When it’s about you and you’re little cozy family, than yes! I thought you loved me but you’re off pleasing HER!”
“Terri, HER is my ex wife, the mother of my children! I can’t just say screw you in front of the kids! Geez.” He stood up, running his hands through his hair. “You know, I came out here to make peace with you, to try and s

“Nick and I are going to dinner. A romantic little place when we get to New York. I guess you can see the city and how gorgeous it is. He bought me this elegant evening dress. Plus this ruby studded broach!” I rolled my eyes at Kris who was sitting across from me. Why I thought it was a good idea to come down to breakfast this morning was really beyond me. Every female was here and Terri just had to sit with us and was currently telling Leigh about her big plans. Kinda sad that I knew what they were for I had helped him arrange the whole damn thing.“When are you going Terri?” Kris asked, glancing down the table at her.“Oh, in a few days, when they get a break in their touring. It’s the only day he has off,” Terri gushed out.“Wow. You’re taking time away from his kids?” I kicked Kris under the table, not needing Terri to be ticked off yet. Not that the mention of the kids would do anything. And the fact that she was cold hearted enough to want to ruin a day with Nick an

“Nick! How long have you been behind me?”“Not very long.” He smiled at her and then walked into the living room area, lying about what he told her. He had heard every damn word and he was going to make sure everyone knew just how low Terri was. “Why? Did something happen?” He tried to look concerned, but that act was getting hard to play.“Oh, no, nothing. Was just asking, that’s all.”“Oh, okay than.” He sat his bag down then went into the bedroom.“Uh, Nick, what are you doing?” Terri followed him, her brows crinkled as she watched him start to change.“Tamara and Thomas wanted a daddy day, so I’m heading to the park to play some ball with them.”“Is Resa going?” Nick pulled his shirt on and gave her a pointed look.“Resa, is by rights, my bodyguard. So, yes, Resa is going.” Terri chewed on her lower lip.“Can I go?” That made him pause. He was kinda hoping of spending the day with his family, or at least before the show. But then again, his ass would be on the line i

Nick turned as he heard the scream, his eyes opening wide, trying so hard not to laugh as he watched both of us slide on the grass and then finally land in the puddle. He glanced at Brian who watched as well, and then both of them finally crack up and rush over to us, trying to help us up.“Nicky, this is your fault!” Terri wailed as she tried to grab onto his arm.“How is it my fault? I told you to be careful!”“If we left earlier, we would have missed the rain!” She finally got her legs steady and rose up, the mud covering at least her lower part, and in that regard, she was lucky. But not me. Nope, I took a straight nose dive in and was covered head to toe.“Look, it doesn’t matter. We have got to get back to the hotel and into dry clothes! They can’t get sick and I don’t want the kids to either.” I started wiping the mud off as best as I could, feeling the daggers that she sent at my back.“I don’t like this being on me. Nick, help me wipe it off.”“I don’t have anything

Terri watched the retreating back and then looked at Nick, her gaze finally landing somewhere and nearly flipped.“What the hell has him up?”“What?” Terri stepped closer and made it a point of glancing down at his awaken package. “It’s nothing.”“Bull shit it’s nothing. Is that over Resa?”“No.”“Yes it is Nick. Are you playing me now? Is that it?”“Terri, give it a rest, I’m not. What would I have to gain by playing you? Why would I do it? If I wanted Resa, don’t you think I would have dumped you along time ago to get back with her?” Nick asked, crossing his arms, his brows lifted, silently daring her to challenge him. Finally, she saw the truth in his words and rested her hands on his hips.“I’m sorry Nick. I shouldn’t be thinking about things like that. You’re right. You wouldn’t have cheated on her if you still loved her. Or even wanted her.” She stood up on her toes to give him a kiss, hoping he would deepen it. And deep within himself, he knew he should, that he
What’s Mine, Stays Mine Chapter 1
How far would you go to find happiness? Would you lie, cheat, steal, seduce? What? Or, would you simply smile, nod your head and let all your dreams and hard work simply go? But, that would be for the sake of someone else’s happiness, right?“I want to marry her. I’m gonna marry her.” I plopped down in the chair and frowned into the phone. I had hoped he didn’t want me to say anything because I wasn’t sure I could. “Resa?”“Wow.” Damn, that was all I could say?“I want Tamara and Thomas in the wedding.” My eyes flew to the twins who were currently occupied by some show on Disney.“No. They are too young and wouldn’t understand.”“Resa…” But Theresa, or Resa to her friends, quickly cut him off.“Nick, please. Don’t subject your kids to that.

“Than why did you let him go?”“Look, it’s not a conversation I want right now, forgive me, LeighAnne,” I answered with a sigh.“I know and I hate to say anything. It’s just that you and he fit so well together, Theresa.”“I know. But, please, really, enough about that. Are you and Baylee going on the tour?” I absentmindedly picked at the blanket that was thrown over the back of the couch as I questioned LeighAnne.“Yeah, probably, why? Oh, are you working? Oh my gosh, yes!” she exclaimed, causing me to roll my eyes at her.“Woah, chill out there, LeighAnne!”“I’m excited now. I know Kristin wasn’t ‘cause she’s working, and Leigh was still up in the air.”“Well, will Mason go?” I ask of her; Mason being Kristin’s and Kevin’s son.“If Thoma

I tapped my finger nails along the table, waiting for the buzzer on my place to chime. I glanced down at my phone once more, checking the time. I jumped, even though I was waiting for that sound. I flung the door open, grinning as LeighAnne gave me a big hug.“Resa, I’ve missed you so much. We’re going to have a blast today.” I turned, seeing Brian stepping in with Baylee beside him.“Brian!” I squealed, quickly hugging him tightly.“Hey Resa.” I gave him another hug, then turned to Baylee and gave him a hug.“Hey auntie Resa. Are they in their rooms?” Baylee asked, referring to the two holy terrors known as my kids.“Yup, and they’ve been waiting for you!” Baylee flew down the hallway waving a bye in the ladies direction. I shook my head and turned my attention to Brian. “Are you sure about all of this?”

“Take the kids and go home.”“I can’t Nick. You see, I need to work, and so do you. And, I can’t leave two five year olds by themselves,” I crossed my arms as I replied, letting the sarcasm come through.“You’re kidding!” I glanced behind Nick to look at Terri.“Sorry, didn’t mean to intrude on your fun there. Nick does have to play the daddy role.”“You bitch! You did that on purpose! You…” she snarled at me.“Terri, shut it. My kids, I’ll take care of it,” Nick told her, giving her a look before looking at me.“Nick, there is no taking care of it. I have to work, you have to work, and no one can watch the kids. I know you can put two and two together.” Nick glared at the rest of his friends, who were all snickering. He grabbed my wrist and quickly ha

Terri stomped her foot as she slammed her phone shut, the talk with Julie upsetting her greatly. She knew that Nick was really out of her realm, so what the hell was keeping him here? With her? When he so badly wanted to be with his ex wife? Terri was not a fool, she saw the band that was on his hand again. Damn it! She knew she should have pawned it when she had the damn chance. She ground her teeth as she started pacing the room, her plans starting to unwind.“Not yet! He can’t go. I refuse to let him go. I just have…got to speed up my plans.” She did a quick turn around and flew to her room, looking at the pills. “If Nick wants to leave, fine. But I will be damn sure that I am taking him for everything he has. He will be stuck with me for the rest of his life.” She read the instructions than grabbed the laptop, logging onto the net. &ld

I paused, slowly swallowing, wishing I could make the simple connection between that woman and Terri. Yet, to my knowledge, no one had a clue. I cleared my throat and then placed a hand on each twin’s arm, looking at Nick.“We better go. I’m not getting them involved in this.” That snapped Julie back to attention and her eyes narrowed.“Does Terri know about this little outing?”“You know what Julie, not everything that I do has to be cleared by her, no matter what you, OR SHE, might think. Sorry. I have a life of my own and kids to take care of. Now, excuse me, I got to pay for these.” He held up the two outfits and we blew past her, her jaw dropping. Gosh, if it wasn’t Terri ruining a perfectly good and fun day, than it was her little goons or friends. I rolled my eyes as I followed Nick and the kids, stepping off to the side when he took out

“What are you doing?” Kris sat down next to Howie and glanced at his lap top screen.“I’m looking through a virtual yearbook from my high school days. When you click on the names, it gives you the info to some people, whatever they want posted.”“Hey, that’s a cool idea.”“There were a lot of people that I lost contact with that I would love to get to know again.”“You mean, so they could freak out that they know a Backstreet Boy?”“Aren’t you funny?” Howie rolled his yes at her but grinned. “We do have friends outside of the group.”“Oh, I know that. I met a couple of AJ’s the other night.” AJ lifted his head up from the hand he was holding and looked up.“Oh, Bob and Susie. She’s about ready to pop too. Dang, could you imagine popping out 3 kids at one tim

“But you have always said that you liked when woman wear your clothes. You said you found it sexy. And being that I felt so bad, it was comforting to be in your clothes.”“First of all, not every piece of clothing that’s mine on a woman is sexy. Second of all, I really don’t need you getting your sick germs all over the clothes that I wear. I can’t afford to be getting sick, thank you.” Nick stormed into the room, quickly followed by Terri.“Wait just a damn minute. You leave me when I need you and than I can’t wear your clothes.”“Uh, hello, I have a job to do! It’s not like I can sit here and cater to your every need right now.” She tilted her head and than strolled over to him, running her hands up his stomach and his chest.“You know, they say that sex can help get rid of colds.”“Not happening tonight.
