Newborn Love (BWWM) (Interracial with Baby) Page 10

  Ashley did as she was told positioning herself on top of him and easing herself down on him slowly. The lower she went on him, the better the pleasure of her walls spreading to take all of him inside her. Ashley could not contain herself as she screamed with each riding motion on top of him as he grabbed and sucked on her breasts. Ashley could feel the stinging in her thighs from the intensity of the motion, but they were both close to coming so she planned to hold out until she made sure Adrian climaxed as she had already done earlier.

  “Oh shit, baby—I’m about to fucking come inside you,” he said.

  “Well under the circumstances, we don’t have to worry about pulling out so come hard in me, papi!” she reminded him.

  With that, Adrian came the hardest he had ever come during their lovemaking, with Ashley following right behind him with another orgasm. She fell forward exhausted and hot on top of Adrian while he continued lying back against the couch running his fingers along her backside.

  “See baby, that wasn’t so bad was it? Ashley asked.

  “Hell no! It was freaking awesome,” Adrian responded.

  “I wasn’t talking to you, baby. I wasn’t talking to my other baby.”

  Ashley lifted herself up to show she was rubbing her tummy. Adrian smiled and lightly kissed Ashley’s stomach and then pulled Ashley back toward him to lightly kiss her lips.

  “I love you so much, Ashley. I am the happiest I have ever been in my life and I can’t wait to show you what a great father I can be to our baby.”

  “I know, baby. You don’t have to convince me—I already know.”

  Ashley started to tear up but mostly from the fact that Adrian was starting to make her feel bad for not being completely honest with him. She just wanted him to stop talking like this, although he was saying the things she had been dreaming of him saying for so long.

  “I just want to be sure you know that I have always been faithful to you and honest with you, even if my actions and reactions to certain situations may not have always shown that. I have always loved you though,” Adrian said beginning to tear up himself.

  “Baby, I need to tell you something and I hope you don’t hate me for it. But I slept with Eric that night I found you at Lila’s house after the club.”

  Ashley could not bring herself to say anything else, although she had practiced over and over in her head many times before how she would tell Adrian the truth, whenever she got up the courage to do it. The reason she did not continue was because of the look on his face. His smile slowly crept away and the tears were now rolling down his cheeks. She knew that she had hurt him deeply, and that in return made the tears roll down her cheeks too. Neither of them said anything for a minute, and Ashley slowly lifted herself off of him and sat down beside him on the couch.

  “Baby, I’m sorry but I couldn’t go on not having told you the truth. I did it out of anger and hurt; I thought I was leaving you alone with Lila to do the exact same thing and when Eric showed up, things just sort of happened.”

  Adrian stopped looking at Ashley and started looking around her house as if trying to figure out where she and Eric may have had sex. Did they have sex here on this same couch? Did they have sex on this floor? Ashley could tell he had all kinds of thoughts going through his head but he would not speak.

  “Adrian, will you please say something?” Ashley said as she reached over to touch him on his arm. He suddenly pulled away, practically scaring Ashley although she kind of expected he did not want to be bothered right now. Adrian got up and started to get dressed again. “Adrian, baby, I am so sorry—can you please say something?”

  “Is the baby his or mine?” Adrian said after turning to face Ashley who was still sitting naked on the couch.

  “The baby is yours, Adrian. I wouldn’t have dared went this long making you think you were the daddy if you weren’t, not to mention telling my parents,” Ashley said as she stood up to face Adrian who began to back away from her.

  “So is that why you waited to tell them about the baby? What, were you and him sneaking behind my back trying to get paternity tests done to figure out if he was the daddy or not?”

  Ashley remained silent as she realized how her way of handling this matter did indeed seem deceitful regardless of how much she thought she thought she was protecting Adrian. She was actually being selfish and protecting herself more.

  “Adrian, I realize how bad this looks but even after finding out that you are the father I still came out and told you the truth just now. I had always planned on doing that at the right time, but there was never a right time—I was scared of losing you, baby.”

  “Ashley, I have to go. I can’t look at you right now. I can’t be around you right now. And I’m doing my best to not drive over to that motherfucker’s house tonight to kill him. I just need some time.”

  Ashley rushed to throw on her negligee so she could chase Adrian outside and try to stop him. He had already made it out to his car by the time she got to the front door but she realized they weren’t alone. Lila got out of a car parked across the street from her house. Ashley recognized the car, realizing she had recognized it on a few occasions. Adrian was just as surprised to see Lila as Ashley was.

  “Lila, what are you doing here?” he asked.

  “I came here to tell you the truth about your bitch and my man. They’ve been meeting up, even at the hospital. Why would they be meeting up there, huh?”

  That’s when Ashley realized that she had seen that same car in the hospital parking lot, as well as a few other times in passing. She realized that Lila had been following her. Before Ashley could even fix her mouth up to say anything to defend herself, Adrian jumped in. “Lila, this is old news. Ashley is pregnant and she needed to be positive of the baby’s paternity. She and Eric had been involved so she had to be sure. Eric’s not the father—I am, ok? So you need to go address your man. Please leave Ashley and my baby alone from now on, ok?”

  Lila stood in place speechless as Adrian got in his car, took one more look at Ashley, and then pulled out of the driveway. Ashley did her best to straighten up and play things off since Adrian defended her, but she was too hurt to even care at the moment.

  “Lila, is there anything else? If not, I would like it if you would please leave. Thank you.” She stepped back inside and slammed the door leaving Lila in the same spot looking confused. Ashley peeked back out the window to see Lila walking back across the street to her car looking defeated. Apparently, Lila had not figured it all out, but in reality Ashley was the one defeated. She stared at the couch, at the spot where she and Adrian had just made love. Just moments ago things in their world seemed so perfect, but now Ashley knew things would not be the same. It was just a feeling she had, and she ended up being right about that feeling.

  Adrian came back around almost a month later to talk to Ashley. He felt that they needed time apart because of all of the drama they had both experienced in the short time they had been together.

  “Ashley, I do love you, and I love our baby. But I think the best thing for our baby is if we get our own shit together first. You have trust issues when it comes to men because of what you’ve been through, and maybe you just need some time to yourself to sort those things out. And me, I have my issues too. I just need to get over this and learn to trust you again.”

  Adrian’s words hurt her deeply, but Ashley realized what he was saying was, in fact, true. They agreed to be friends and try to do their best to co-parent. They each told their families that although they had a baby coming, they had decided that they were better off as just friends. The only other person in the families who knew the complete truth was Carrie, and she had been praying for her sister and Adrian to one day get past all of the pain and reconnect. She had never seen her sister as happy as she had been when she was with Adrian, and she had a feeling in due time that everything would come together as it should. Carrie was still hopeful for the two of them, but she kept her feelings and thoughts to herself because she co
uld tell that Ashley still carried the pain of that whole situation.

  For the remaining months of the pregnancy, Adrian was by Ashley’s side as if they were a couple. People outside of the family would not have been able to tell the difference. When Eva was born on that lovely spring day, Adrian was helping her through the labor as well. He had even helped her paint the nursery and put things together in preparation of Eva’s arrival. Now as Ashley was walking trying to get Eva to sleep, she was trying to hurry up and get some rest before he came over so she could get her place in order, not to mention get somewhat cute. Ashley still cared for him very much, and she had done a lot of soul searching and praying over these last few months. She had gotten to a place where she had let go of the baggage that she had when it came to men and her relationships. Ashley knew that having a daughter meant that she needed to be an example for her. She needed to be a woman that Eva would be proud of and aspire to be like. Ashley thought about all of her experiences in the past with men, including the drama that she experienced with Adrian, and knew it was time to forgive herself for that and move on. The previous week Ashley had given Adrian a letter to take home with him. She told him to open it alone once he made it home. It was a warm, heartfelt one-page letter apologizing (this time in writing though) and explaining how she was content if she never had him back in her life the way she had him before, and even expressed that she just wanted him to be happy—even if that meant him being happy with another woman. Adrian never responded, and when he did call her it was to say that he planned on stopping by to visit with Eva. Ashley decided she would let him decide to bring up the subject of the letter, and go from there, but she did not have any expectations.

  Later that afternoon after getting Eva to sleep, taking a quick nap, and then getting some cleaning done around the house, Ashley was still in her lounging clothes when the doorbell rang. When she answered the door she was surprised to find Adrian and his mother standing there. Mrs. Cruz immediately pulled Ashley in for a hug after they both stepped inside. Ashley and Mrs. Cruz had gotten close over the past few months of Ashley’s pregnancy, with Adrian’s mom visiting often to help her prepare for the baby’s arrival. Ashley’s parents, as a matter of fact, had grown quite close to Adrian’s parents so it made Eva’s environment a very loving family atmosphere.

  “Mrs. Cruz! Adrian didn’t tell me he was bringing you. It’s so good to see you,” Ashley said after hugging her. “How are you, Adrian?”

  “I’m doing great. How about you?” Adrian asked as he reached over to hug Ashley as well, something that took her by surprise since it had been a while since he had shown her this type of affection.

  “I’m good. The baby is still sleep right now but I’m thinking she’ll probably be waking up within the next hour. Please make yourselves comfortable.”

  “Well, I’m not going to be staying. I came to drop mom off to babysit for a few hours.”

  “Babysit?” Ashley asked obviously confused.

  “Yea, you’re going with me—at least I hope you will go with me,” Adrian said as his mom headed out of the room to give them some privacy, smiling as if she was keeping a secret.

  “Well…where are we going?”

  “I want you to go get changed into something pretty to show off that beautiful figure of yours. We have a reservation at your favorite restaurant. We have some things to talk about,” Adrian explained.

  “Do we?” Ashley asked knowing that it had to do with her letter.

  “You told me that you wanted me to be happy right? Well I was happy when I had you in my life and I want us to sit down, just us two without the baby for a few hours, and see if we might have a chance at starting over. Is that ok with you, Ms. Dennis?”

  “That is more than ok with me, Mr. Cruz!”

  Ashley smiled at Adrian once more before dashing off to her bedroom to go get dressed. Ashley had awakened feeling like it was going to be an awesome day—just a feeling that she had. So far so good, and she could not wait to see how the rest of her story played out.
