Chapter Two: Jealousy

"You must have the two most beautiful children I've ever seen," Jimmy complemented Manny. He was sitting on her bed holding Lily. Manny took her from him and handed Lucas over. She was changing their diapers.

"Thanks. I just love them to death," she told him.

"I can see why," Jimmy said. When he looked up to smile at Manny, he immediately looked away, embarrassed.

"It's okay, I'm used to people watching me feed them. There's nothing to be embarrassed about." Jimmy looked up again and this time couldn't bring himself to look away. Manny looked like such a natural mother, and he couldn't help but smile as he watched her feed her daughter. He was less than three feet away from her. When Lily was finished eating, Manny put her down on the bed and motioned for Jimmy to hand her Lucas, leaving her breast completely exposed. Jimmy blushed, but couldn't stop looking. Manny smiled at him and shook her head. She went back to feeding him, and didn't even hear anyone come down the stairs.

"Uh…what are you doing?" Chris asked. He came down into the room and all he saw was Jimmy staring at Manny while she breast fed their son.

"Feeding the baby," Manny said, an annoyed look on her face.

"But what's he doing here?" Chris said, pointing at Jimmy.

"Don't be rude. Jimmy has offered to watch the twins when I go to work. He's here to learn everything he can," she explained.

"No offense, but have you even had any experience with babies?" Chris asked him, but then turned to face Manny, without waiting for an answer. "He's learning by watching your breast hang out of your shirt?"

"Don't you have to go to work?" Manny asked, ignoring Chris' question. "We will talk about this later," she said.

"Yeah, fine. I just came by to get my shirt." He walked over to his dresser and pulled a work shirt out. Then he stopped by the bed and gave Manny a quick kiss. "Bye honey," he said to her, and kissed her again, this time taking a little longer and using his tongue. He was trying to show Jimmy that Manny was his. "Bye my little angels," he said, kissing Lucas and then Lily on their heads. When his face went by Jimmy's after kissing Lily, he glared at him. As soon as he was gone, Manny started apologizing to Jimmy.

"I'm sorry, he was being really rude."

"Nah, it's okay. You don't have to apologize for him. Now, how about I learn a little something about taking care of these two?" Manny had already finished feeding Lucas and fixed her shirt. She showed Jimmy how to change their diapers and let him practice. She also showed him how to change their clothes, explaining that he had to be as gentle as possible, and to never leave them on the changing table alone.

"If you need to feed them, there are bottles with breast milk in the fridge. You just have to heat them up for fifteen seconds in the microwave," Manny told him.

"Well, this seems easy enough," he commented.

"Now I'm going to leave you alone so you can see how it will be like. I'm just going to take a quick shower," she said and went upstairs. After fifteen minutes, Lily started crying uncontrollably and Jimmy couldn't get her to stop. He figured out that she needed another diaper change, so he put her on the changing table. He took her diaper off and wiped her, and then realized that there were no more diapers left. He picked Lily up and looked around for more. When he didn't find any, he made sure Lucas was safely in his crib, and ran upstairs to find Manny. He opened the door at the top of the stairs the same time Manny opened the bathroom door. She was standing there, completely naked, holding the towel in her hand. Jimmy nearly dropped the baby, but managed to hold on to her. Manny quickly turned around and whipped the towel around her. Jimmy got a long look at her butt before she got it on. She turned around like nothing had happened at all. Jimmy was blushing, but she ignored it.

"So what's up?" she asked.

"I'm really sorry Manny. I didn't even know that the bathroom was at the top of the stairs…" he began to say.

"Don't worry about it. With all the kids there are in this house, it happens all the time," she said, brushing it off.

"Um, okay. Well, uh…" he couldn't finish his sentence. "Oh yeah, I couldn't find any more diapers."

"There's a door off of my room with a bunch of boxes of diapers in it," she told him. She led him back to her room and showed him where they were.

"Thanks. And uh…I'm really sorry…"

"Just forget about it. I won't tell Chris either, don't worry." Manny pulled a box of diapers out of the room, opened it up, and put the diapers on the second shelf of the changing table.

"Wow, um…" Jimmy started to say.

"What's wrong?" Manny asked, turning around.

"Lily just peed on me," he said, pointing to the wet spot that was slowly spreading on his shirt. He had forgotten that she didn't have a diaper on.

"Oh man. That's never happened before," Manny said, laughing. She took Lily from him, put a diaper on her, and put her into her crib. Jimmy was just staring at the pee on his shirt. "Here, just take it off and I'll wash it for you." Manny helped him take his shirt off, and almost blushed when she saw his body. "You're in good shape," she commented.

"Uh thanks," he said, and suddenly felt very exposed. But all of a sudden, he lightened up. I did just see her completely naked, he thought to himself. Manny threw his shirt into the twins' hamper next to the changing table.

"Did you want to wear one of Chris' shirts?" she asked.

"Nah. It probably wouldn't fit." He was right, it wouldn't. He was at least three inches taller than Chris, if not more.

"You're right," Manny agreed. She sat down on her bed and patted the spot next to her, indicating for Jimmy to sit down. "You gonna tell Hazel that you saw me…well, in a compromising state?" she asked him.

"There's no need to. She broke up with me a little while ago."

"What? Why?" Manny asked, surprised.

"She found out that I wouldn't be going to college because of my therapy. We didn't think it would take as long as it did."

"That's really harsh. What did she think you could do? Learn to walk faster?" Manny asked angrily. She wasn't sure why that made her so mad.

"Yeah, well, I'm better off without her," Jimmy said confidently.

"You probably are," Manny agreed. Silence followed Manny's last comment, and she was just looking into Jimmy's eyes, waiting for him to respond. Instead, he leaned forward and kissed her, taking her completely by surprise. She leaned back, but not until he finished the kiss.

"I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have done that," he began to apologize. "I really shouldn't have and I should probably go," he said, starting to get up.

"No, you don't have to. It's okay, really." Surprising Jimmy and even herself, Manny pulled him back down onto the bed and kissed him. She lay down and pulled him on top of her without thinking. The sexual tension between them was immense, and she couldn't help herself. All Manny was wearing was a towel, and the babies were asleep. Chris was being a real ass to me today, she thought to herself. He'd never have to know…

A/N: You'll have to wait and see what happens in chapter three! I want five reviews until I update again. I also have to work on my story At Last.
