Two months had passed. Riley was glad John was leaving her alone. She didn't think he would but she hadn't seen or heard from him since that day in her classroom. It was Friday. Jesse and five other students were going to New York City for a science fair. They were coming back Sunday afternoon. Riley was at lunch with Ashley.
"I still can't believe you're getting married." Ashley said.
"Neither can I sometimes." "This whole thing's been such a whirlwind." "I love it."
"I bet you do." "Jesse's great."
"I know."
"The big day will be here before you know it."
"I know." "I can't wait."
"Before you know it, little baby Riley's and little baby Jesse's will be coming."
"Not right away." "We've talked about having children though."
"You've probably practiced a lot to." She said smiling.
"Yes we have." "I told him about my other pregnancy."
"You did."
"Yeah it was painful to talk about but I wanted him to know." "I just hope I don't let him down when it comes to children."
"What do you mean?"
"I know my doctor said I'd be perfectly capable of having children." "I'm just worried that the surgery might've screwed something up." "What if my eggs are damaged?" "What if my uterus is damaged?" "What if the same thing happens like last time in another pregnancy?"
"You'll worry yourself to death thinking about things like that."
"I know I just don't want that to be the downfall of our marriage." "I don't want to be happy in every other way except for the fact that I can't have a baby."
"I'm sure everything will work out for the best."
Later that day Riley was going to the airport to see Jesse off. It was around four in the afternoon. Riley went up to the gate where Jesse was sitting with the students.
"I wonder who Miss Bennett is here to see." One of the boys said.
"Oh leave them alone Tommy." One of the girls said.
"We'll be right back." Jesse said.
Riley and Jesse went around the corner where the students couldn't see them.
"Have a good trip." Riley said.
"I will." "I'll call you when we land."
"Ok." They kissed. "I love you."
"I love you too." "See you Sunday."
"Ok bye."
"Bye."
It was nighttime Riley was watching TV. There was a knock at the door. She got up to answer it and rolled her eyes when she saw John standing there.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Riley asked.
"Is your fiancée here?"
"No."
"I wanna talk to you."
"John, I thought I made it clear." "I'm engaged, I'm happy."
"Riley if you marry him you'll be making the biggest mistake of you're life." "What you have with him can't compare to what we have."
"We don't have anything anymore." "All we had was a secret romance."
"We loved each other."
"Yeah, in secret."
"Want me to tell the whole world how much I love you?" John turned around put his hands around his mouth and shouted as loud as he could. "Attention everyone!" "This is Riley Bennett!" He said pointing to Riley. I-
"Ok, ok, ok." "You can come in." "Just shut up."
"Ok." He went in.
"I'll be right back." She went upstairs and came back down a few minutes later with John's sweatshirt. "Here." She said handing it to him.
"I wondered what happened to this." "You kept it all this time?"
"Don't flatter yourself." "I forgot I had it."
"Well you must of kept it for some reason?"
"When we were still together I used to hold it while I slept."
"You did?"
"Yeah." "I missed you when you were gone."
"I know the feeling." "I miss you now."
"John get this through your head." "I have a fiancée." She said holding up her ring hand. "We're getting married."
"We shared something way more connecting then you and him ever did."
"What's that?"
"Our baby."
"Our baby died."
"Yes but if it hadn't you know things would've turned out differently."
"I loved you." "Do you know how much it hurt me when you didn't stop me the night I broke up with you?" She said tearfully. "I wanted you then and you didn't want me."
"I want you now." He put his sweatshirt on the couch and went up to her.
"It's to late now John."
"I love you."
"Well I don't love you." He kissed her. After about ten seconds she started kissing him back.
"You don't?" He mumbled against her lips.
"Mm-mm."
"Then what is this?"
"A moment of weakness."
"Even when, we go upstairs?"
"Mm-hmm."
They went upstairs and into the bedroom. As soon as they were in the bedroom they were kissing again. They bumped into the dresser. John lifted her up and put her on top of it. She took off his shirt. He took off her pajama top. They kissed again. John kissed her down the center of her neck and continued down until he reached the center of her chest. "Ohhhh." Riley moaned. After a few minutes he came back up to her mouth. He lifted her off the dresser and stood her up. He pulled her bottoms off. She undid his jeans. He picked her up. Her legs wrapped around his waist. They moaned into each others mouths when he inside her. He moved inside her. "Oh my god." She moaned. "Again." He did it again. "Ohhhh." He laid her down on the bed and slipped inside her again. They started to move. They kissed. "Oh Riley." John groaned. "Ohhhh John." Riley moaned. "I've missed that sound." He said as he kissed her again. They started moving faster. "Uhhh, I love you so much Riley." "John." She moaned. "Tell me you love me Riley." "I love you, ohhh, ohhh, ohhh, my god, mmmm, mmmm, John." She moaned giving in. "God Riley." He groaned giving in.
Afterward John was holding Riley. They kissed.
"Can I spend the night?"
"Yeah but don't get used to this." "I'm still-
"Ssh." He kissed her. She kissed him back.
"Again?" She mumbled against his lips.
"Yeah, I need you again."
