"You?"

Jay watched Emma giggle and felt his heart explode in his chest. She was so cute when she laughed. Her dimples were breathtaking and her eyes had that little sparkle to them. Even though she was basically laughing at him, Jay still found her irresistible.

When did this happen, he asked himself. When you first laid eyes on her...

"Yeah. Me."

Emma's face became serious. "You can't do that. Manny would definitely figure that something was up."

Jay shook his head. "It was her idea. She wants me to do this so you won't have to be alone. She asked me to do this for you and I want to. Not for Manny, for me and my baby."

"Stop saying that!" she scolded. "I say no, but thank you. I don't think it's such a good idea."

"Well I don't want Spinner Mason having any more to do with my child than is absolutely necessary. I'm taking you to those classes."

Emma saw the determination in the set of Jay's jaw. He was serious about this. He wanted to help her prepare for the labour and life after, as a new mother. It was the least he could do since she wouldn't let him be a part of his child's life afterwards. She felt her resolve fading. I guess if it was Manny's idea...

"Are you sure about this? It's not exactly like Media Immersion class," Emma warned. "They talk about labour and breast feeding. A lot of guys look for any way to get out of having to go."

Jay smiled widely. "Then I am very prepared, because I know a hell of a lot about breasts. In fact..."

Emma interrupted Jay's dirty rant with a finger over his lips. "More information than I needed, really. If you're offering because you really want to, then how can I possibly say no?"

Emma busied herself folding a basket of laundry her mother had placed on her bed. She saw Jay's face suddenly turn dark.

"What?" she asked, eyeing him intently.

"How are you?"

Emma shrugged and sat down on her bed. "Okay I guess. I'm a little queasy in the morning, but it usually disappears by noon. Be honest, am I getting fat? 'Cause some days, I feel really fat."

Emma pulled up her sweater to just above her belly button and tapped her tight stomach. Jay swallowed. There was nothing fat about Emma. She was perfect. He stepped forward, knelt before Emma, and placed a warm hand on her stomach. Emma was taken aback at the gesture, but fought hard not to falter.

"Does it move?" Jay asked, eyes on his hand, fingers splayed wide, still resting on Emma's stomach. He finally sat back on his haunches.

Emma laughed lightly. "Not yet. Around five months. So you didn't answer me. Am I getting fat?"

Jay took his hand from Emma's stomach and put it on the bed, beside Emma. He used it to hoist himself to his feet, so that he could sit down beside Emma. "You know you're not. You're just perfect."

The two sat, side by side, staring into each other's faces. Jay put all thoughts from his mind, leaned forward, and placed his lips on Emma's. They shared a slow, lingering kiss. Emma was left breathless when it ended and Jay had peeled his lips from hers.

"You can't do that again," Emma whispered, trying to sound sure of her convictions.

Jay leaned in again and swept Emma's lips with his own. "There are few opportunities for me to kiss you and those opportunities are about to get even fewer. I intend to take advantage when I can."

Emma couldn't help but smile. "You're impossible, you know this, don't you?"

"And irresistible?"

Emma rolled her eyes. She shot to her feet when she heard Manny's voice upstairs, talking to Snake and Spike. Jay continued sitting on the bed, as Manny came bounding down the stairs. She looked surprised when she saw Jay.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, eyeing him and then Emma. She sat down beside Jay and gave him a small kiss.

"I came to ask Emma about being her partner for her prenatal classes."

Emma nodded her head. She felt like she had 'cheater' written on her forehead. She hated lying to Manny and all of this sneaking around really wasn't good for anyone. Emma decided then and there that she had to distance herself from Jay, especially if he intended on pushing the envelope every time they found themselves alone together.

"But I told him that I already have a partner. Spinner offered to take me."

Jay shot an icy look Emma's way. "And I told her that even though Spinner is nice to offer, I make the better choice and she agreed."

"Well I'm still undecided," Emma lied.

Manny looked back and forth between her two friends. "Okay, well, whatever you choose, it's nice to know that you have people who are there for you."

Emma smiled, watching Manny hug Jay. Jay peered at Emma over Manny's shoulder. His look told her that he wasn't about to back down on this issue. Part of her felt very angry. The other part was glad beyond belief.
