In the middle of the night he felt someone climb into bed with him

He felt two arms wrap around him, and realised it was Stevie

"Steph?" He turned to face her

"Yeah, it's me baby" she leaned it to kiss him

Lindsey sat up quickly, "You aren't going to touch me until I get some answers."

"What...?" She questioned, trying to hold him

"Is there a possibility that, that baby is Jimmy's?" He pointed to her stomach

"What?" She stared at him

"Could the baby be Jimmy's?!" He raised his voice

"Don't yell at me...I've just driven five hundred miles to get here!"

"Don't pull that shit right now. Tell me."

"Why are you asking me?"

"Stephanie! Tell me!" He stood up

"It's yours, Lindsey" she tried to hold his hand

"I want a paternity test."

"Are you serious?" She asked, hurt

"How do I know that you aren't lying to me?!" He asked

"Lindsey, please..."

"Stevie, no."

"What's he told you?" She asked

"Enough to make me second guess my feelings."

"Your feelings?"

"About being happy for this baby. I will not raise another one of his children."

"No! You are not going to do this to me again!" She cried

"What do you want me to do?!" Lindsey threw up his hands, "Jimmy said that you went to him because you thought that it was his! Which leads me to another question....how far along are you?"

"I don't know..." she told him

"Don't bullshit me." He pointed at her

"I don't know Lindsey, the test doesn't tell you does it!"

"Is it true though that you went to Jimmy?"

"No!"

"You better not be lying to me, Stephanie," he sat on the bed

"Lindsey...Please don't do this again

"I can't take this again, Steph."

"You did fine the first time..."

"Did you really just say that?" He shook his head in disbelief

"Linds, that's not what I meant..." she did her best to try and hug him

"I still want a paternity test." He put his hands up, not wanting her any closer to him

"You want me to go home?" She asked

"I don't know what I want."

"She's yours Lindsey"

"I can't trust that, I need proof."

"You believe him, over me?"

"No, but I know that you slept with him when you lived together, so that possibility always lingers."

"And what if it is?" She asked worried

"Then like you said, maybe it's best if we split up," he bit his lip

"Oh my god" she covered her face

"But since its mine, we have nothing to worry about, right?"

"Don't you dare, speak to me with that sarcastic tone!"

Lindsey stood up quickly, "Just tell me the God's honest truth!"

"About what?"

"If the baby is mine, did you go to Jimmy first, and do you really know how far along your are?"

"Lindsey..." she said exasperated

"Tell me right now."

"Lindsey we took that test before when we thought I was pregnant, and it said negative"

"But i didn't see the test myself."

"Oh so you think I was lying? Because your a better father than he is?"

"Why can't you just give me straight answers?!"

"Because your hurting me, Lindsey!" She had tears running down her face

"How am I hurting you?! You won't tell me whether or not that baby is really mine!" He pointed to himself

"I don't know!" She shouted

"You don't know?" He paced back and forth

"Well I know it's yours, but your convinced otherwise!"

"I need a drink!" He raced into the kitchen

"No! You are not drinking again! This always happens!" She raced after him

Lindsey spun around, "Are you a hundred percent positive that I'm the father, or are you telling me what I want to hear?"

"I'm almost certain!" She answered

"Almost?"

"Lindsey, please!"

"Please what?!"

"Stop it! Your twisting what I say!"

Lindsey sat down at the kitchen table, "I can't do this again, baby."

"You can't leave me, pregnant and alone again..."

"I'm not leaving you, I just want you to go get a paternity test."

"And then if it's his, you'll leave me, you've just said that yourself!"

"What do you want me to do?! I want a baby with you! One that is half me and half you!"

"I know! Don't you think I do!" She said

"How soon can we do the test?"

"Not for a while yet, they haven't even formed that well"

Lindsey sighed and placed his head in his hands

"Linds..." she placed her hand on his head

She could feel him trembling as he tried to hold in his sobs

He lifted his head up and his eyeline was right at her stomach

He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him, "I've decided to sign my parental rights over to Jen's sister."

"You what?" She pulled back

"She's got a nice house and is well off. It'll be good for him, he'll be able to go to a nice school and live in a good neighborhood."

"No Lindsey! That's our son! You can't do that..."

"I want what's best for him, Steph. I can't care for him!

"We, can care for him! We're together Lindsey!"

"I can't be selfish, baby."

"It's not being selfish! We can look after him fine!"

"But he won't have a good education or live in a nice house and neighborhood."

"Why not? Phoenix is nice!"

"I can't afford a nice house in a nice neighborhood!" He ran his hands through his hair

"There's plenty of room at mom and dads, Lindsey"

"I have more pride and dignity than to live with someone because I can't afford a house."

"But you'll have me, and Evie, David, and our baby" she told him

"I think that this is the right thing to do, Steph."

"It's not! That's my baby!" She cried

"He won't have to want for anything!"

"Lindsey, I want him!"

"I know she'd let us see him anytime we wanted."

"That's not the same! I won't let you do this!"

"I'm doing what's best for him! You don't think this breaks my heart?!"

"You can't give your son away like that! Imagine what Jen would say!" Stevie said, agrivated

"It's to her sister! Jen would want me to do what was right!"

"We can do this Lindsey! Jen would want your child with you, I know she would!"

"Jen isn't here! I can't say what she would and wouldn't want!"

"I can! And she wouldn't want this!"

"You never knew her!"

"But I'm a mother!"

"I don't even know if I'll be able to get him back!"

"We will! I'll fight with you!" She insisted

"With what money?"

"Linds...we need him..." she cried

"I don't want to break your heart, but we need to do this for him."

"Okay..." she said tearfully

Lindsey stood and kissed her head, "This will all work out."

"What if we want him back?"

"I know that Jen's sister would let us keep him for a few nights a week."

"I mean permanently, Lindsey"

"Of course we'll want him, but baby, this is what's best for him."

"So what your saying, is once you sign the rights over, that's it, we can't have him back for good?"

"No, we can't." He shook his head sadly

"Then don't do it...I'm begging you!"

Lindsey sighed and ran his hands through his hair, "Okay..."

"Okay?" She questioned

"I'll see if I can get in to see a judge today, now let's go back to sleep, it's the middle of the night."

"Okay, baby" Stevie walked to the bed and sat down

Lindsey climbed in beside her and laid down on his back.

Stevie went to cuddle him, but she felt him shy away a little

"Baby, talk to me," she kissed his shoulder

"I'm fine, just go to sleep"

"Hold me. I've missed you."

"Stevie, it's late"

"Sorry," Stevie rolled over and faced her back to him

"Steph, I'm sorry" he touched her shoulder

"It's okay," she mumbled

"No, it isn't" he pulled her closer to him

Stevie turned to face him and wrapped her arm around his waist.

"Forgive me, I love you" he kissed her nose

"Always, I love you too."

No matter how hard he tried, Lindsey just couldn't sleep

Stevie awoke, sensing his restless energy. "What's wrong?"

"I just can't sleep"

Stevie sat up and kissed his head, "What can I do?"

"Nothing baby, just sleep"

Stevie leaned down and kissed his lips, "I can make you some chamomile tea?"

"I threw all your teas away" he said embarrassed

"Why?" Stevie asked confused

"I was angry, and you told me it was over"

"You kept my clothes but you threw out my tea?" She chuckled

"Hey, it was cute! I didn't want to see it" he chuckled to

"Weirdo," she playfully nudged him

"You broke my heart"

Stevie stopped smiling, "Way to ruin the moment."

"I'm sorry, but you took me by surprise telling me it was over"

"I'm not arguing about this."

"I don't want to argue, I'm just saying..." he held his hands up

"Well don't say anything then."

"Sorry, just go back to sleep Stevie" he got out of bed and headed for the living room

Stevie didn't even acknowledge him, just rolling back over and falling asleep

Waking up a few hours later, she realised Lindsey hadn't come back to bed

"Linds?" She called out, sitting up in bed

She didn't get an answer

Stevie jumped out of bed and hesitantly walked into the kitchen

"Linds?" She called out again

She looked over and saw him passed out on the couch

Walking closer she found that he was holding one of Evie's toys, and David's blanket

Stevie kneeled down in front of him and kissed his forehead, smoothing his hair out of his face

He finally looked peaceful, pushing him over slightly, she climbed onto the couch beside him

She felt Lindsey's hand come up and comb through her hair with his fingers

"Hey, sweetheart..." he said sleepily

"Morning, baby."

"I'm sorry" he mumbled into her neck

"You have nothing to be sorry for. We are both under a lot of stress."

"You more than me" she added

"That's doesn't give me the right to be an asshole."

"Honestly, it's okay" she told him

Lindsey kissed her forehead and pulled her against his chest

"I love you!"

"I love you too, Steph."

"Is Evie okay?" He asked kissing her head once more

"She seems to be."

"I feel horrible for leaving her like that"

"I do too, but she is a strong girl."

"Yeah but Steph, she knows your coming back"

"You'll come back."

Lindsey brought her to him once more, and cuddled her tight

Stevie kissed his cheek repeatedly and nuzzled his neck

"You smell good" she told him

"Thank you, but to be honest I haven't showered in two days."

"You smell all musky, and manly...sexy..."

Lindsey bit his lip and smirked

"What?" She asked smiling

"I remember you specifically coming all the way to California for a reason."

"Hmmm...and what would that be?" She bit her own lip in return

"Forgotten already?" He shook his head

"You might have to...you know...give me a reminder"

"I can do that," he smiled and bit his lip

"Be my guest..." she said and smiled at him

Lindsey attacked her neck, slipping his hand up her shirt to rest ok his rib cage

"Bed...we've never done it there..." she said between breaths and moans

Lindsey nodded and picked her up, carrying her to the bedroom and laying her down

Laying across her, he took her wrists, holding them by the side of her ears with his own

"I want you so badly." He gritted

"Then take me...please god, take me..." she ground her hips upwards into his

"Fuck," he hissed, bucking his hips in return

"I needed you so much during that phone call..." she told him

"Oh baby that phone call will be nothing compared to this." He groaned

"What you going to do to me?" She bit his neck

"You'll see."

"Please...hurry and show me!"

Lindsey tore off her shirt and slid down her jeans along with her panties

Stevie was being impatient, writhing about in the middle of the bed

"Patience, baby."

"Just touch me already...I can't stand it!"

Lindsey slid his hand against her

"Like this?" He asked in her ear

"Uh huh," Stevie nodded

"Tell me what you want, baby"

"I want it hard." Stevie gritted

Lindsey took her by the hips and flipped her onto her front, then pulled upwards till she was on all fours

Stevie looked over her shoulder at him and bit her lip, writhing up and down

Removing his pants he climbed onto the bed and sat up on his knees, bending forwards and dragging his tounge the length of Stevie's back

Stevie moaned loudly, arching her back and pushing her butt towards him

Without warning Lindsey suddenly thrust completely inside her, first time

Lindsey realized that she wasn't wet enough, Stevie yelping and jumping foreword

"Shit! Baby, I'm sorry!"

"Baby, it's fine. I need some more foreplay."

Snaking his hand around her front his fingers met her centre

"Like this?"

"A little more, baby," Stevie moaned

Lindsey slipped his finger inside and massaged her clit with his thumb, he could feel her getting wetter

"You know how to make it happen quicker."

"Tell me..." he begged

"Use your tongue."

Getting up from the bed he got straight back on, this time laying on his back and scooting under her limbs, once he was lined up, he brought her down but the hips, and sucked at her gently

Stevie grabbed onto the headboard, "Oh God, yes!" She threw her head back

Squeezing her thighs, Lindsey's tounge did things she didn't even know it could do

"Fuck!" She grabbed her hair, "Shit, Lindsey!"

Moving her hands down she placed them on his that were on her thighs

"More...Lindsey, more..."

She felt one of his hands leave her thigh and trail down to her center, massaging her clit as he continued to use his tongue

"God, you know just what to do!" She squealed

Stevie felt like her insides were going to cave in as her legs could barely hold her up anymore

"I can't keep upright, Linds!"

Lindsey helped her slide down his body and lifted her up onto his member

Sinking down onto him she screamed and grabbed at the skin on his rib cage

"You want it like this?" He gritted

"Harder..." she moaned

Lindsey pulled her against his chest and thrusted at an incredible pace below her

Squashing her face into his neck she made noises, sounding like pleasure mixed with some pain

"You okay, baby?" Lindsey held the back of her head

"Mm" She continued to make the noises so he stopped for a second

"Baby, I'm not going to keep hurting you..."

"Why didn't you tell me to stop?" He asked

"Because it feels good..."

"You're hurting."

"It's fine" she told him, trying to get him to move

Lindsey but his lip and started to move slowly, hesitating

"Lindsey, just do what you were doing..."

"Promise me you'll tell me if I hurt you."

"I will!" She waited for him to start again

Lindsey pulled her back against his chest, wrapping his arms around her and thrusting faster

"That's it! Keep going, baby!" She held on tight

Lindsey was moaning and grunting her ear

"How's this for you?" She whispered to him

"Fucking amazing," Lindsey grabbed her butt, spreading her cheeks to thrust deeper

"You still doing alright?" He asked, barely able to hold out on his climax

"Yes." She panted

"From behind...please..." she added after

Lindsey rolled her off of him and turned her over, thrusting in from behind

Lindsey thrust hard, and physically moved her, almost tipping her over

"Linds, just be careful, there's two in one here" she giggled

"Sorry, baby," Lindsey bent over and kissed her back

"It's alright honey" she looked over her shoulder and smiled sweetly

Lindsey kissed her shoulder and thrusted a little slower

Leaning forwards very slightly, he hit an angle that made Stevie scream

Stevie gritted her teeth and rubbed her clit

"That's it baby, feel me" he said, grabbing her hips

"Yes!" She screamed

Moving her finger out the way, he snaked his arm round and replaced it with his own, adding pressure to her clit, and biting her shoulder

Stevie's mouth hung open as her head fell forward

"Steph...come..." he told her forcefully

Stevie moaned loudly and fell forward, her body flung through spasms

"Ride through it, baby!" He ran his hand up and down her spine

"I can't," she shook her head

Moving them round so they were both on their sides he slowly continued to slide in and out of her

"Yes you can, you know you can..."

He could feel Stevie shutter and jump against him

"Shhh...your more sensitive now than ever, baby" he held her waist

"I can't much more, baby," she sniffles

"Feel the pleasure in it" he once more brought his hand to her

Stevie closed her eyes and took it

"Tell me to stop if you don't like it"

"I'm so tired, baby."

"Okay..." he removed himself from her carefully

Stevie hissed and turned to face him. "I'll finish you baby."

"No, it's alright, I'll sort myself out in the bathroom in a minuet sweet"

"No, come here," she motioned for him to come closer and took him into her hand

"Steph, I said it's fine!"

Stevie looked up at him and removed her hand, "Sorry."

"Don't be sorry, but I can sort it"

"I want to."

"You've done enough"

"I'm sorry, baby." Stevie tried to kiss him

"I won't be long" he got himself up of the bed and started to walk across the room

"Baby, let me do it," she bit her lip, sitting up

"Just stay put..." he told her

Stevie laid down on her side and covered up with the blanket

Not long after she had settled down, Lindsey returned from the bathroom

He saw Stevie sleeping on his side of the bed

Sighing to himself he kissed her on the head and gave her belly a small light caress

Lindsey climbed in beside her and cuddled her against him, both of them stark naked.
