Chapter 36
Callie
Today was our last day in Greece and we were outside. We spent an extra three days until Anthony decided to let me out. I had asked him what would I say when Crystal asked about Greece? He just rolled his eyes and said fine. We were at a quaint little cafe ,he was dressed in a dress shirt and Jeans . I couldn't help but stare at him.
“Don't look at me like that Callie”
“What I'm just looking at my husband”
“Yes but I see what's behind those eyes, baby . When we get back home you need to visit the doctor ”
“Yes sir ”
“What did you buy earlier?”
“I bought some presents for Crystal ,Jace , Marcy and your mom ”
“Thank you Love ”
“For what?”
“For being so Nice to my mom ,she adores you, she always has.”
“I like your mom she's better Compared to mine”
At the thought of my mother ,my heart hurt. She's lied to my dad about me and Jace. She didn't think twice before kicking us out .
“Callie don't do that , you're not at fault. She's an adult she did what she wanted”
“I know ”
“Don't think about it love . Have you already packed ? We'll be leaving as soon as we get back to the hotel ”
“Yes everything is packed”
We walked hand in hand back to the hotel. Then left for the airport. On the way back home I sat looking at him ,he was busy working.
Anthony
“I can feel your eyes on me baby Girl”
I was catching up on some important stuff ,I could feel her stare.
“I'll be working as soon as we get back home”
I don't see why she needs to work ,but I didn't want to Risk bodily harm by saying that. I knew she loved what she did and if I tried to stop her I'd never hear the end of it. “Do you have to work ? I mean…..”
The look that I got made me stay quiet. “Fine ”
“Anthony I know you can take care of me , but I need to be me .I need an Identity also ,I can't be known as your wife alone. I love my Job , won't you be proud of me if I'm successful?” Well shit ,she had a point.
“Okay Love , you can do whatever you want. I trust you and I'll always be proud of you .”
When we got back to our apartment ,it was extremely quiet so I called Jace.
“We're home and no one's here?”
“Umm yeah about that , well now that you're married Crystal and I decided we'll stay at their apartment so you guys can have your privacy ”
I shook my head and muted the phone . She came walking around the corner. “Where are they?”
“They wanted to give us space ”
“Do you want them here ?”
“Yes ”
“They get Jace in line , I'll go take a shower”
I Unmuted the phone. “Jace ,you and Crystal have two hours to get back over here with all your stuff. Don't make me have to come get you”
“But Anthony, you're married ”
“And ? Get over here or I'll send your sister to deal with you ”
She was in the kitchen making dinner ,I had given Ann some time off. It was quiet. They both showed up thirty minutes later looking sheepish.
“Dinner's in twenty minutes Guys”
Callie
They thought we didn't want them here ,we would need privacy. I mean Anthony wanted them here, I wanted them here.. I was in the kitchen making dinner when I heard the front door so I told them dinner in a few minutes . We sat down to dinner and it was normal , The way it usually is . After dinner Crystal and I headed to the balcony and left them alone. Something was bothering her , I could tell from her face .
“What's wrong Crystal?”
“Nothing ,why would you think something is wrong?”
“Because you sound different ,and you're not smiling like you normally do.”
“Umm I….”
I held her hand in mine. “You know you can talk to me”
“I had a miscarriage a few days ago”
“Crystal I'm sorry ”.She started crying ,I hugged her as she cried.
“Does Jace know ?”
“Yes ,he was so happy when I told him and now he's hurt”
“I'm so sorry , it'll be okay don't worry”
Anthony
Jace and I were in the kitchen having a drink ,he looked a bit different and something was off. “What Happened?”
“What do you mean?”
“Nope, that's not working with me. What happened while we were away? You're not acting like yourself”
“Crystal was pregnant ,she had a miscarriage a few days ago ”
“And ?”
“She's hurt ,she won't talk to me ”
“ Have your feelings for her Changed?”
“No ,of course not ”
“Then Fix it Jace ,go talk to her . Reassure her that nothing will change ”. He just looked at me.
“Go ”
A few moments later I saw Callie walking towards me . “What's wrong, wife ?”
“Nothing , Just sad Crystal told I'm guessing Jace told you ?”
“Yes , they'll be fine . They have both of us to make sure of that. You need to see the doctor tomorrow”
“Yes , I'll be going back to work too ”
“Hmmm ”
“Anthony ”
“Fine”
I know she wanted to work ,and nothing I said would stop her . maybe just maybe if I kept her pregnant that would .
“Why are you smiling Anthony?”
“Nothing love let's go to bed ”
Callie
I was nine months pregnant and happy. Crystal was six months pregnant. We gave up our apartment and so did Anthony . We had moved into a bigger penthouse ,where we all stayed. We had our own space which ensured privacy but open enough that we were still together. Crystal and I were still working ,Marcy had retired so Crystal and I did What we've always planned to do. We Started Our own clothing line and we were doing good. Which meant we made our own hours Anthony and Jace decided they needed to help with that.
Crystal and Jace were engaged and they would be getting married soon. We were home alone for the time being Anthony and Jace were out doing something . Everything Has been good between me and Anthony, the baby was okay and I was okay ,My hormones have been going nuts making me emotional at any given hour. Lately Anthony has been avoiding me , everytime we're alone together he finds something to do.
He comes to bed when I'm already asleep and leaves before I wake up and it is starting to piss me off . That's been happening for the past two week . I tried talking to him this morning but he ran out of the room saying he was late.I was sitting there on the bed waiting for him to get back.
Anthony
Jace and I were hiding out at my club. It was twelve noon and we were at the club .He didn't say why he was hiding but I figured it was the same reason I was. We've been happy but I could do without her damn antics, she's always up to some shit with my mother and Crystal . One day I walked into our room and found her on the top steps of a Ladder. I never moved so fast in my life. I Didn't yell at her ,I just looked at her in Silence then she started crying. I knew it was her hormones and she couldn't help it.
I told Jace what she did ,he didn't even have it in him to yell at her. We stayed there until three then went back home. The minute I walked into our room she was sitting on the bed looking at me .oh shit I thought she'd be asleep.I've been avoiding her for the last two weeks , I'm about to lose my mind , I don't have any more excuses. I’ve fixed everything that needed fixing, and the nursery was finished . She stood up and walked over to the closet. she was wearing these new stretchy things, that was all she lived in these days and this cute top that molds her round belly and my dick caught her scent.
I eyed her ass and cursed myself for being a sick fuck. She was ready to pop and all I could think about was how fucking hot she looked in her last month of pregnancy. Fucking setup. I want her all the time, but I’m so afraid to hurt her that I dare not risk it.Instead of my ardor cooling it only seems to get worse. She grows more beautiful everyday, which I would’ve never thought possible.
I’ve seen pregnant women before and none of them ever made me lose my shit. I just get a whiff of her and I’m ready to hump her ass like a stray mutt. She’s like a walking miracle or some shit. She’s carrying my kid, Started her own business. Works non stop then at night she rolls into bed smelling and feeling like the best of everything in my life. And I can’t have her.
Fuck she bent over to pick something up and those stretchy pants pulled tight across her fine ass ,I walked out of the room slamming the door shut .I stormed out the door to the private pool on the roof .A few hundred laps should do me good. I headed for the pool, stripping my shirt off over my head as I went. I kicked off my jeans when I reached the pool and dove in. I pushed myself until my arms started to burn.
When I pulled myself up on the side she was sitting there waiting for me. She held a towel out for me but I knew that’s not why she was out there. She was looking a bit pissed .Her tits were about to bust out her top and I put my head down and counted to five before climbing out the water. I wrapped the towel around my waist. I looked everywhere but at her.
“What’s wrong love? Is the baby kicking?”
She leaned back on her hands and everything was on full display. Now I was fixated on the vee between her thighs. My cock was starting to tent the towel so I sat on the chair next to hers.
“Callie, I'm talking to you.”
I’ve been on full alert since she started showing. I notice everything about her . She rubbed her tummy and smiled but there was still something in her eyes that I didn’t like. I can’t stand to see even a hint of sadness in her; it tears me up inside. Her pregnancy was scaring the shit outta me. I stay awake at night gritting my teeth and going through the route to the hospital over and over in my head. Once or twice I’ve made the dry run and had my Jace timing that shit ,he ended up laughing like a lunatic.
Her doctor and I are on a first name basis on account of all the late night calls every time she twitches. In short, I’ve lost my damn mind. Add the fact that every time I look at her I want to bury my cock in her so deep they’d have to pry me out of there with a crowbar and you’ve got quite the situation
“No, he's quiet right now, he's just missing his daddy.”
I reached my hand out to touch her tummy and swallowed when the hard smooth mound of her tummy moved beneath it.
“See, he's waiting for your touch.”
She covered my hand with hers and the love swelled so huge inside me I thought I would explode.
“What’s wrong, why have you been avoiding me?”
“Avoiding you?”
I looked over at her sharply.
“Yes, you always run whenever we’re alone together. The only time you’re around is when Crystal and Jace are there or your parents.”
“That’s because I don’t trust myself around you anymore.”
