I woke up today and found myself snuggled into Eric, it was embarrassing to say the least. Our legs were intertwined; I had my head in his chest and my arms around his waist while his arms large arms encircled me. It took me a good ten minutes to escape the trap that I had lain myself, I got up to the kitchen in my black lace nightie, It was delicately swaying around my hips as I took each step. I made a large breakfast consisting of pancakes, bacon, muffins and fruits by the time Eric had showered and finished getting dressed.
We sat around the table and began eating, " hey you are coming to the party today right?" I ask, " yeah, but we cant be too late since tomorrow afternoon you have an appointment." I groan, I had completely forgot, " I'll go with you if you're scared" he says smugly. " as if " I say, my eyes flit to the pool as a thought pops into my head, " do you ever use the pool? I used to go swimming every day in my parents pool."
"you see I'm too busy to use the pool since I have to do this thing called work" he says and I roll my eyes while biting into another watermelon chunk. I finish up and pick up my plate to clean it, I can sense Eric watching so I sway my hips a little extra. I stop at the sink and open the cabinet underneath it, and purposefully bent down in the most sexual way. I put the soap on the sink, but before I could actually clean anything a felt to hands digging into my waist. I gasp the at the sudden contact, he lowers his head to my ear and whispers " you are killing me with these damn nighties" . I could still feels his breathing labored on my neck as I further pressed my butt onto his erection. He groans lowly and flips me around, still against the kitchen counter, and says " careful, you play with fire and you get burned".
With that he left for work, this was the relationship we had developed. We talked like friends and then it randomly turned into these sexually heated moments that leave me out of breath. I didn't know what to make of it, but goddamn I need some sort of release.
I sighed as I discarded my thoughts, I cleaned up the kitchen and had done some other household chores. In no time the house was pristine, so I had changed and headed out. Honestly, I had only developed a love for cooking since I started living with Eric, I think its only because I miss my moms cooking.
I made my way towards Tris and Fours house with all the party stuff that I needed, I knocked the door with my ankle as I had hundreds of bags piled in my arms. Chris opens the door and I yell a "thanks" at her, I make my way to the kitchen and begin prep. Me, Tris, Christina, Four, and Uriah chat as we turn the apartment into the perfect party.
I just finished decorating the booze soaked cupcakes as Tris calls me into the bedroom to get ready. I was doing Tris' makeup as Christina asks me " so how's living with your ' man' ? did you sleep with him yet?", I scoff at her and reply " Living with him is actually quite decent, he is nice to me." "Eric? Nice? As if!" Tris mumbles, " Hey! Don't talk about my future husband like that!" I say playfully, " and yes, he is nice. In fact we already speak like we've known each other forever" . Christina rolls her eyes and says something about how naïve I am but I simply kick her chin playfully and continue on with the makeup.
We had finished hair and makeup, and I slipped on a short embroidered body-con dress. I did a once over in the mirror and strut out into the living room. The party was already in full swing, albeit it being only nine. I find Eric talking to my brother and march over to them, I plunk into Eric's lap softly and greet him with a kiss on the cheek. " That dress would look very nice thrown on the bedroom floor" he whispers in my ear, making me shiver. " If you like the dress you'll love what's underneath" I whisper back as I place a soft kiss under his ear, making him groan lowly. " You guys know I'm right here, right?" Alec says, I respond by flicking his forehead and giggling.
It was time for party games, we all gathered in a circle and I plopped down between Eric and Alec as the bottle was spun for truth or dare. Christina dared Tris to give four a lap dance, it was hilarious to say the least, someone had dared Alec to do a Keg stand- which he did perfectly. Then, at Uriah's turn, the bottle landed on me " You. Eric. Seven minutes in heaven" he said with a grin. " fine" I say with a smirk as I pull Eric towards the coat closet and close the door behind us. I can hear them scuttle around the door and laugh, Eric was grumbling. "Chill out, if they see some real action they might get off our backs." I say at him, " we have nothing to prove" he shoots back. I roll my eyes " just go along."
About six and a half minutes pass, and I hear them count down from ten. So I quickly push Eric to the ground before he reacts, I straddle him putting his hands on my butt. "what are you doi-" but before he could continue I start kissing him, just then we could hear the door open. Everyone was staring at us, jaws to the ground; no one really believed we were engaged until now. I whipped up off the ground and Eric slung his arm around my waist as we walked out, the crowd parted like the red sea. " Dude that's my sister!" groaned Alec, " you mean my soon to be wife" says Eric with a smirk. I was smirking until I saw Peter, he was shell-shocked to say the least, my eyes drop to the ground. I turn to Eric and say " babe can we go home I'm tired", he kisses my forehead as a sign of agreement. We go around the room and say our good-byes; the last thing I say to Tris' still shocked face is " I'll be by tomorrow to pick up my stuff."
Back home Eric and I sat in bed recapping the night and laughing at everyone's expression, " now do you see why I did that? It was hilarious!" I giggle. He just rolls his eyes and admits " yeah it was funny, and you were pretty hot" he smirks at me, " pfft, yeah whatever" I say throwing a teddy bear at him which he catches. We continue on this banter until both of us fall asleep.
I woke up the next day and started making breakfast as I remembered that I had an appointment today, it was only ten, I had to be there by twelve. So I continued on with breakfast, after I had finished eating I cleaned up and realized that Eric hadn't woken up yet. Poor baby, he works so hard so I let him sleep in and put some food in the oven for him. I went in for a shower and scrubbed my body with strawberry vanilla scented body wash, I felt good. I walked out of the shower to see that Eric had just woken up, " morning sunshine, I left breakfast for you in the oven" I say with a smile, " thanks" he gives me a sleepy smile.
I drop my towel in the hamper and open the closet thinking about what to wear, fully aware that Eric was staring at my naked body, I smirked- this is fun. I pick out a pair of black shorts and a black crop top, I put them on quickly realizing that if I don't move I would be late. I quickly kiss Eric goodbye and run out the door, only after I was halfway to the clinic that I realized my mistake. I kissed Eric, and not in public or for show but a real kiss "Oh my god" I exclaim to no one in particular as I touch my lips.
I walked over to the check in desk and checked in, " just one second ma'am, you can wait over there" she says. I turn to see Eric sitting in a chair waiting for me, " Jesus Christ! How the fuck did you get here so fast?" I say as I clutch my heart, he all but smirks at me and replies " you walk so slow, I actually walked past you. Also who still says 'Oh my god', what are you twelve?" I shove his arm playfully and sit next to him.
When we are called into the patients' room, my favorite nurse May greets me " Hey there sugar! How are you?" I smile warmly at her " I'm fine thanks, oh and this is my Fiancé Eric" , " Oh I know sweetie y'all are the talk of the town!", I hop onto the bed and she checks my blood pressure, then she continues brightly " so what are you in for today?"
" just some birth control", her smile doesn't falter as she asks " pills or shot". I opt for pills as I can control when I go on and off of them, she makes me take a mandatory pregnancy test-which I find ridiculous. I am definitely not pregnant, as we wait for the results me and Eric laugh and make small talk. Just then May walked in with her eyebrows scrunched, " sweetie…" she says " it says her that you are three weeks pregnant". We fall completely silent, I couldn't breathe. She then says something about fate and how she knows its too early for us to have a baby and how she understands, but I didn't move.
Our walk back home was silent there was palpable tension that caused distance between us, we walked into the apartment still silent. I walked into the bedroom; numbly changing into an oversized hoodie I stole from Peter and curled up under the covers. I stare up at the ceiling and think, I put my hand on my stomach and start sobbing.
