Maddox

At Vincent's condo he shows us to our bedrooms. I follow him up the stairs and past some photographs of an older couple.

He stops and looks at them. "That's my Grandparents. This used be there place before they died. They left me this and their entire fortune."

Why he telling me this?

I smile. "They look happy. I want to look like that someday."

The Grandparents are hugging each other and they are looking at ea
ch other as the picture was taken.

Vincent takes my hand and show me to my room. "This is your room. You should get some sleep. We have an early day tomorrow."

I turn to him. "What do you mean we have an early day?"

He smiles. "I got us tickets to the player's lunch and we'll be sitting in the corporate box. We get to see the action from higher up."

"How did you get tickets?"

"My best friend works closely with the manager of the Tigers and I asked him for a favor."

I hug him. "Thank you, Vin."

He smiles. "You gave me a new nickname?"

"Yep, I hope it doesn't get used."

He kisses my cheek. "Sleep tight."

I open the brown door and enter my bedroom. There's a chandelier in my room, the purple blinds are drawn, there's a king sized bed next to the purple wall, on the other side of the room is desk and computer.

I walk to the cupboard and open it and I find myself walking inside. It's a walk in closet with heaps of shelves.

I exit the cupboard and turn to the last door in the room. I open it and come across the bathroom. There's a spa bath, shower and toilet in the room.

I look at the bath.

I need to relax.

I turn the taps on for a bath.

I look through my suitcase for my pyjamas and I take them to the bathroom.

When the tub is full I step into the bath and turn on the spa. The bubbles sooth my body and I fall asleep.

When I wake the water is cold. I drain the tub and get changed for bed.

I climb into bed.

Peyton and Madeline walk into my room while I'm getting changed into a pair of jeans and the Tigers jersey.

Peyton look at shirt. "You look great in the shirt. It reveals your bump."

I look down and it reveals the bump.

I hope Maddox likes it.

My Best friends hold my hand as we leave the house. In the limo my friends sit with their boyfriends and they make out with them.

I pull out my phone and tap away on the keys.

Someone clears their throat.

I look in the direction and see it was Vincent. "What?"

"That taping is distracting."

I smile. "You sucking my best friends face is disgusting. We're in a no win situation."

He rolls his eyes and place his hand on my best friends face and he kisses.

I take a picture of them. I put the picture on twitter with the #getaroom.

Vincent looks at me. "What did you do with the photo?"

"It's on Twitter, under hashtag get a room."

He laughs. "You're the annoying little sister I've never had."

The limo pulls in front of a glass building. The driver opens the door for us and we exit the vehicle.

Vincent holds Peyton's hand as she exits the car. I follow them to the sliding glass door of the club.

In the club we enter the function room. The Tiger's players are meeting fans.

Maddox is in a corner talking to woman.

She has her hand resting on his chest. She whispers something to him.

He looks around the room as if sensing someone is watching. His eyes lock on mine and they widen for a second before he looks away.

I can't move from this spot.

Vincent and Peyton stand next to me.

I hold Peyton's hand. "I can't do this." I begin to turn when a hand grabs me. I turn to see a tanned arm latching onto me. I follow the hand to a suit that fits perfectly on this man. My eyes scan the face and the brown eyes shine in the light.

He touches my face. "I'm glad you came, Sam. Can we talk outside?"

I nod.

He leads me outside and we sit on the chair. "I was worried you weren't going to come back to me."

I hold his hand. "I was going to come back for you, Maddox. I can't raise our child on my own and I don't want to. I need you, Mad." I place his hand on my belly. "This baby needs a father."

"I will be the best father for our child. You know my Aunt and Uncle don't approve."

I nod. "They told me that when I told them I needed to talk to you. They didn't want me to have your number as it would be a distraction to your game."

He stands. "Are you going to use me?"

Huh, where did that come from?

"Why are you asking me that?"

He paces back forth. "Your sister told me stuff about you and I don't know what the truth or lies. All I know for a fact is that I love you. I don't expect you to say it back, Sam. But, that's the way I feel."

"Everything my sister told you is a lie. My sister and family have been set out to destroy my life for a while. They succeeded in destroying and now they want to take you from me," tears are streaming down my face. "I won't survive if you go as well. I'm already barely holding on. The thing that's holding me together is growing in my belly. If you don't want me, Maddox, I'm going to walk out the door."

I wait for him to say something. When he doesn't I move to the door. I pull the door open.

"Stay, I need you." He pulls me into his arms. "I'm not going to keep pretending you don't exist. The last couple of months have been a pain for me. I didn't know if you were still alive. I need to go back inside. I want to tell everyone about my pregnant girlfriend."

He hold my hand and he stands in the middle of the room.

A photographer takes our photos. "Hello, Ladies and Gentleman. My name is Maddox Colt and I'm taken. I would like you all to meet my pregnant Girlfriend Sam Black."

"Hey," I hide my face from everyone.

He chuckles. "I never thought you'd get embarrassed."

"I don't like the attention."

The paparazzi ask questions about how we met and I let Maddox answer the questions. I don't want to talk to them. They will lie to make the story interesting to make gullible people to buy their stuff.

Peyton hugs me. "If you're uncomfortable with going to the papers Vincent can stop it."

I smile. "No, it's alright. People need to know that he's taken. It's a shame his name will be taken off the 100 bachelor's list this year.
