Jay unpacked the last of his suitcases, and put them away, in the back of the hallway closet that held all of his and Erin's travel luggage. He sighed, laying down and letting his eyes flutter shut as he felt his bed for the first time in two months.
His flight had landed a little under two hours ago, and Erin had already left for work. It was only ten in the morning, but felt like it was midnight. Her lunch was in an hour, and he planned on surprising his girl and bringing her lunch. He hadn't seen her in two weeks, and as soon as he opened the door and her aroma filled his nostrils when his head hit the pillows, he was home. It felt like heaven.
It was best with New York traffic, to head out now. After lunch he planned to unpack his belongings from Spring Training. The team had staff members who did do that, but he always loved being at the stadium. It gave him his life, gave him his fans, and gave him Erin. He knows he would have met her either way, but his career led him to his friends, who led him to the bar, who led him to meeting her.
He pulled into the parking lot of the school with take out in hand, and smiled as he saw kids lining up to go inside. That meant her lunch was just about to start. Jay checked into security, gaining a visitor's pass and giving the two security guards, whom he recognized one was a season pass holder, a picture and autograph. The elementary school Erin taught at was not a normal public one. This was the school closest to Jay, and that meant it was tightly secured due to the fact the majority of the children's parents worked for the city and state, and also the fact a school shooting had attempted to take place two years ago.
He found the room number, 310, along with a picture titled, Ms. Lindsay, and a picture of Erin on the wall to notify parents and students who's room they were about to enter. Just as he raised his hand to knock against the wooden door, the booming voice tore through his ears. "Jay! How have you been?" He smiled and gave Layla a hug. The two had grown closer over Spring Training. They were like siblings, and always talked. Especially over Spring Break, she would give him updates on how Erin was surviving without him.
"Wonderful, now that I'm back here and can see my girl everyday," He grinned, surveying her state, noticing the small bump that was slowly making its appearance. "How are you? How's the little one doing?" He nodded towards her abdomen where her hand was currently resting upon.
Her eyes brightened at the mention of her first. She smiled down at her stomach before looking at Jay again. "Great. No morning sickness yet. But I'm determined it'll happen," She laughed softly. "But, how are you and Erin?" The day Erin got back from the trip, she refused to talk to Layla about it, which ultimately meant something had to be wrong.
"We're good," Jay contemplated whether or not he should tell her about Allie. "There was only one problem. My ex girlfriend, Allie, she showed up and somehow managed to get me in a room and tried to kiss me. I realized what was happening and dashed." He stopped himself there, knowing he should wait to see where the conversation was going to go.
Her eyes widened and she shook her head, "Wait... as in the girlfriend, mysterious blonde, that disappeared this time last year from the face of social media? She's back? Does Erin know? How did you almost kiss her?" Her words came out as a machine gun, firing one right after another.
"Keep it down!" He hushed, pacing back and forth. "I don't know how it all happened. I guess I was so stunned to see her I was completely dumbfounded. And no, because nothing did and nothing will happen." He felt as if he betrayed her, but at the same time, nothing happened.
"Jay, listen, I don't know the extent of this old relationship, but I'd tell her sooner or later," Layla warned, knowing Erin had trust issues, and could easily see this as a sign of loss. And she wouldn't have that. "But, I'm not going to keep you waiting from seeing your girl, so I'm going to go feed me and the lil one. We'll see you tomorrow night for dinner, Jay." She nodded firmly before disappearing down the hall.
He went over the words just spoken to him clearly. I'd tell her sooner or later. Now was not a good time. She was at work. But that wouldn't stop him from talking to his favorite woman on the planet. And also hoping to seduce her into his will.
The way her eyes lit up when she looked up from her computer screen stretched his lips into a wide smile. She sprinted into his arms, and Jay dropped the takeout bags onto the desk and embraced her as the smell of her filled his nostrils. He was home. After two weeks of not seeing her, he was home. "Your home." Her raspy voice whispered as he lowered her onto her desk. He took the opportunity and gripped her hair, plundering his tongue into her mouth, relearning her taste. God, how he had missed her. So much. "I've missed you."
He kissed her even harder at her voice. He wanted to do nothing more than take her on her desk right then and there, but his dignity held him back, despite his member telling him differently. He held back, kissing the corner of her mouth and allowed themselves to catch their breathes. God, he loved her. "I've missed you too, babe." He passed her her takeout food, and she smiled at him gratefully.
She dug into her food, already eating her wrap, picking at the side of salad. "So, what's new?" She had barely talked to him within the past few weeks. Fourth quarter was coming up as third was coming to an end, and she had to finish all of her student evaluations within a certain time frame. And with Jay playing every game, they rarely spoke, and if they did, things got heated quickly between the two.
"Not much," He lied, referring back to his and Layla's conversation. "It's nice to have an off day. Will you be home early?"
Erin nodded, grinning from ear to ear. "Yes. I don't have any meetings tonight, and I also bought a new outfit that's sitting in the box at home." She arched her eyebrow.
Jay felt his pants tighten instinctively. "I want you so bad right now." What he wouldn't give to lay her on a desk and drive into her over and over.
"Then take me." She arches her eyebrow, her voice seductively whispering. Jay groaned, walking up to her, and cupping her face in his palms. He brushed his lips against hers, wanting to take his time. "Jay, the kids will be back in fifteen minutes, so I suggest you pick up the pace."
God, she was so affirmative. He loved it. Jay followed her orders, and pushed her up against her desk, the food being long forgotten. He hiked up her black skirt, having it bunch up at her hips, and he felt her moan as his fingers crossed her damp panties. He stepped out of his sweats, allowing them to pool at his ankles. He didn't want to waste anymore time. There time was limited. He flew open the buttons on her blouse in rapid time, taking the opportunity to unclasp her bra, and filling his hands with the creamy white flesh. He latched his lips onto one of her bare nipples, and watched as her head threw back, and her hips rolled towards him. God, he loved her. So much.
His other hand traveled down her thigh, ripping the silk blue panties she wore to shreds as his thumb went to stimulate her clitoris. "Jay!" Erin painted as she felt her climax quickly approaching. "Jay, please, god!" She trembled underneath his hands as he sped up the motions on her clit. His eyes looked down to where her hands were gripping the end of her desk. Her eyes were fluttered shut, and the sounds falling from her lips were heaven.
"The noises coming from your mouth sound like a fucking melody." He muttered. Another moan fell, and he had enough. With his other hand, he unzipped his fly, shoving his length out of his boxers. He turned her around, bending her over the desk, and rubbed his cock against her slit, allowing her to glisten his length. With one push, he filled her completely. Jay buried his face into her back, muffling the groans coming from his mouth. They fell into a steady rhythm, meeting each other thrust for thrust. Jay glanced at the clock, fastening his pace as he realized the kids would be returning in under ten minutes. His hand wrapped around her body, stimulating her clit. She gasped, and he felt her walls contracting against himself.
He whispered sweet words into her ear, and she came undone around him, and he was right behind her. "I love you." He stood up, twirling her around, pressing his lips against her forehead.
"I love you." She grinned as if she was a school girl. "So much." She straightened herself up as Jay did the same, and sat back down in her desk chair. "So much for the takeout." She laughed, tossing the food into the fridge.
"It was well worth it," Jay winked, kissing her again. "I'll see you at home."
Erin kicked her shoes off into the mud room, dropping her purse on the counter. She scanned the hallway, smiling seeing Jay's shoes scattered throughout the hallway. "In here, babe!" She smiled at his voice, and found him in the kitchen, stirring a bowl. "Hi." He set it down, kissing her cheek.
"Hi," She replied. "What are you making?" She asked, looking down into the bowl.
"Energy balls." He walked around the island, rinsing his hand and rolling them up into balls, putting them onto a tray. "There's granola, raspberries, and a few other ingredients. It'll give you energy and provides protein."
Erin laughed. Jay Halstead was the perfect man. He did everything. And she couldn't wait to tell him her news. "You're amazing." She pecked his cheek, beginning her path to the bedroom. "I'm going to go change." He nodded, and she hopped up the stairs, opening the bedroom door, sighing as she saw the note on her bed. Erin walked over, picking it up.
Erin-
I've missed you a million times. I was scared over spring training it would tear us apart, but it only made me realize how much I love you. You are my rock, been there for me these past six months. I can't wait to travel with you, marry you, have children, and grow old. I'll love you forever. I'll love you for eternity.
She felt arms wrap around her body as she set the note back on the bed. Tears sprang to her eyes. This was going to work out. He was it for her. "Jay," She questioned. "What on earth did I do to deserve you. She ran her hands up his chest, looping them around his neck. "I love you. You are it for me." He really was.
"And you are it for me," He replied, running his hand through her mane of hair. "Forever, Erin, forever."
So, yes this chapter was a little short. It's taken me a little to get back in the groove. Please review! There will only be eight more chapters of this story. I just uploaded a new book, "I'll Always Be Here". Go check it out!
