“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

Nick looked in the mirror of the hotel room as he gelled up his hair, his heart pounding slightly and his stomach flipping. Yes, he was nervous, for tonight, he was really going to have to play the role of a lifetime. He knew Terri’s plans; he saw the drugs there in her suitcase, even knew where she got them for his own two precious kids had over heard her. So, tonight, to make everything believable, he was treating her to a very special, very expensive dinner. He was going to romance her then bring her back here and make love to her. The whole acting part of this was pretending that he was in love with her.Oh, sure, when Resa started working again, he didn’t think he would change his feelings about Terri. But he should have known that he wasn’t in love with her. That it was lust. Hell, after 30 plus years, you would think he knew the difference between love and lust. When he started cheating, he knew it would break Resa’s heart, but at the point in time, he just didn’t care

Terri rested her elbows on the table, her head on her folded hands, her gaze lingering out over the city, in total awe by how beautiful New York City looked by night. “You have outdone yourself this time baby.” Nick looked out as well but turned his gaze to her as she spoke.“Why do you say that?” She took a deep breath and turned to him.“The other night, at the show, I may have caught you making out, with Resa.” Nick just lifted a brow.“Why would you say that?”“Cause its true. I thought you didn’t want me anymore.” She choked back a little sob and Nick had to smile, seeing that she was putting on an act as well. “Terri, had I told you that?”“No. At least not in so many words. But things have been so rough and rocky with us lately. Honestly baby, I don’t know where we stand. Or, that was, until you brought me up here. It’s such a beautiful spot. How did you ever find it?” Nick rested his arms on the table, knowing that he couldn’t tell her the truth, that the owner o

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

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
