Jen.
It'd been a week since we came back from Australia and Justin had been taking a break which he deserved, going golfing and spending a lot of time with Sara. He had been amazing with her, getting up in the wee hours of the night, bathing her, and wanting to do everything. Today was the first time Justin was going to one of Sara's doctor appointments.
"I'm really nervous," Justin said putting on Sara's hat.
"What is there to be nervous about?" I asked.
"He's probably going to tell social services that were not taking good care of her." I laughed putting Sara's diaper bag together.
"Dr Troy is very kind and he would never do something like that," I said putting my cap on. I watched Justin put Sara in her carrier. I hadn't confronted him on what I found in his hotel room that day, but I was going to try.
"Lets go," he said walking down the stairs to the garage. We reached the car and he opened the door for me before walking to the back seat and strapping Sara in and getting in himself. The ride was quiet except for the radio. We pulled up in front of the building and drove through the side to the back way. He placed parked the car and stepped out, before jogging over to my side and opened the door before taking Sara out of the car. Then he lead us through the hall to the front desk.
"Good afternoon how may I help you?" The receptionist asked us as we walked up and Justin placed Sara's carrier on top of the desk briefly.
"Yes, my daughter has an appointment with Dr. Troy?" Justin said. The receptionist checked her computer.
"Sara Jones 1:30?" she asked.
"That's her," he said as she handed him the forms. I watched him take his role as a father and couldn't help but smile.
"You can fill out these forms and have a seat in our waiting area," she told us.
"Thank you," we both said in unison and Justin picked Sara back up and walked over to the waiting area. He handed me the forms to fill out.
"You feeling ok?" I asked, I took this time to try and get him to talk.
"Yeah why?" he asked scratching his head.
"You were tossing and turning all night. You want to talk about it?" I asked and he shook his head.
"I'm just still on Australia time," he answered and I nodded.
"Sara Jones!?" One of the nurses asked, causing us to both look up. We stood up and walked towards the nurse. "Right this way." The nurse lead us through the halls to a room with mint green wall paper with different animals. "Dr. Troy will be with you in a moment," She informed us and left, closing the door behind her.
I sat in the chair next to the examination table and Justin put Sara on the floor and sat in the chair across from me. My eyes turned to Sara who spit out her pacifier and waking up from her nap.
"Is that Ms Jones wailing like that?" A tall handsome black man walked in.
"Yes it is she just woke up from her nap," I said watching Justin trying to calm her down.
"You must be daddy, it's nice to meet you," the man said holding out his hand. "I'm Dr Troy."
"Same here," Justin said shaking his hand.
"Shall we get started? I can take her," Dr. Troy offered and held out his arms for Sara. He laid her on the bed and stripped her out of her clothes, which Sara didn't like. I reached over to touch her hand to give some comfort. Dr. Troy measured, weighed her, and checked her belly button to see if her cord fell off easily. "There is no need for a shot this time. She had her hepatitis shot at the last check up. I did notice her diaper rash on her thighs? Just use cotton balls and dab the area with warm water and use a barrier ointment that I will prescribe."
"Ok," I nodded.
"How are you bonding with her?" Dr. Troy asked putting Sara's pants back on.
"I sit and hold her all day and sing to her," I said taking Sara from him.
"What about you daddy?" the doctor asked, turning to Justin.
"Oh, well. I talk to her like a regular person and I hold her and sing to her," he said looking at her with a small smile.
"Jen I suggest that you use your breast as a pacifier. Some adoptive mothers feel that connection with their baby," Dr. Troy suggested. "Well I think that's it. We'll see you next month."
Justin thanked the doctor before hurriedly getting us ready to leave and heading out to the car.
"That wasn't so bad," I said as he opened the door for me. I sat in the car and he closed the door behind me not saying anything. He strapped Sara in and went around the car to get in. "Justin did you hear what I said?"
"What? No," he confessed and pulled out of the drive way and headed onto the main road.
"Justin I don't like it when you don't talk to me if something is bothering you," I said opening up for him to say something. He didn't say anything till we got home.
"I'm going to put her down," he said walking through the garage door.
"Justin, Please," I said knowing he wanted to tell me something.
"Jen it's nothing. I wish you wouldn't keep asking me," he snapped and walked up the stairs.
I went into the kitchen to check the messages and see what I could whip up. Justin was going to have a nice dinner. I listen to the messages to see that Kia called to say she would be over at 2:30 which was right around the corner. I looked into the fridge to see what I could make.
"Steak...broccoli...and baked potatoes," I said aloud to myself.
"I'm here!" Kia yelled through the house.
"I didn't hear the doorbell," I said looking up and preparing to marinate the steak.
"I made my own key," she said walking in and sitting on a nearby stool."How was doctor feel good?"
"Looking fine as ever, too bad I'm married otherwise I would so try and get with that," I said putting the meat in a plastic bag.
"Girl you still could you're on contract. It's not like your in love with him right?" Kia asked.
"Right," I said.
"Make sure you make enough. Trace is coming over," Kia said getting up and looking into the fridge.
"I didn't know I was cooking for two more," I told her in surprise.
"Well you know now," Kia said with a smile.
I was sweeping up the floor when I overheard Kia and Trace getting a little heated in the hallway to the garage. I sat the broom down in the corner and grabbed Sara's baby monitor and turned the volume down a little.
"What is going on between Justin and Jen is between them we don't need to get in...." Trace said but Kia interrupted.
"Jen is my business and I am not going to let that asshole run all over her and disrespect her and my god daughter. I don't care if they're on contract! That does not mean you play with people's emotions and feelings." Kia said angrily.
"I agree with you but.." Trace tried again.
"BUT WHAT?! JUSTIN SLEPT WITH THAT MAN LOOKING HOE AND I'M NOT GOING TO LET HIM GET AWAY WITH IT!" Kia yelled.
"Shhh.." Trace tried to calm her.
"Don't shhhh me," Kia said.
"Why are you being so hard headed? Just listen to how crazy you sound, do you care about Jen?" Trace asked.
"Of course."
"Then let her handle this, she's a grown woman," Trace told her.
"Well I'm not going to let Justin get away with it," Kia snapped and I quickly walked back into the kitchen so they wouldn't catch me.
I went into the kitchen drawer filled with cook books and looked under them to grab my evidence. This was the perfect place to hide them, considering the only time Justin ever was in the kitchen was when he was eating cereal or looking in the fridge for something to eat or making Sara a bottle.
"Justin!" I heard Kia yell through out the house and I just thought that if she kept it up she was going to wake up Sara. I walked over to the den and stayed behind the wall so they wouldn't see me.
"What?" Justin asked her, and before I knew it I heard a loud smack. I put my hand over my mouth to keep me from letting out a scream in suprise. "What the fuck was
that for?"
"You know very well what that was for," she hissed as Trace rushed in to the room and grabbed her from behind. "I knew you were good for nothing."
"Kia please," Trace hissed, "I thought we talked about this."
"Talked about what? Trace what is...." Justin began but stopped. "Shit. Look Kia I can explain...."
"You don't have to," I spoke up and decided to stop hiding and straighten it all out. I stood by the door, with my arms crossed. "I think Justin and I need to talk."
"Yeah," Trace agreed and grabbed Kia's arm, "We'll see you guys later. Come on Ki, they need to talk."
"But..." Kia began but Trace shook his head.
"No Ki. They NEED to talk. Let's go!" He snapped and dragged her out the room and past me, throwing me a small smile as they left. I knew Kia had no remorse for what she did. Once they were gone I walked further into the room and shook my head.
"Jen look I know what you're thinking..." Justin began I looked up at him, and uncrossed my arms from my chest holding the garment in my hands.
"Do you?" I asked and held up the thong in my hand. "I don't think you do."
"Jen let me explain," he began but I cut him off, what could he say to make it better?
"Do you remember these? I found them under your bed in your Hotel room. Who have you been laying down with Justin?" I asked and he just kept quiet. "SAY SOMETHING!!"
"It was a mistake," he replied looking up and into my eyes.
"You promised me," I whispered, with tears in my voice. "You promised that you wouldn't hurt us."
"I was missing you and Sara I had too many drinks," he tried to explain. "But I stopped it before it went too far."
"You're a coward," I said taking a few steps back wanting to get away from him. "You would have had more sympathy from me if you just told me. I gave you opportunity after opportunity to say something but you didn't. Did you honestly think you could keep this from me?"
"I never meant to hurt you or Sara," he said, trying to reaching out to me.
"I'm tired, I am so tired," I said turning away from him and walking out of the room. He quickly followed behind me.
"Wait Jen! Where are you going?" he asked following me.
"You're not in the position to ask me anything," I replied as he walked in behind me to see me pick up the phone and dial a number. "Mike? Yeah I'm ready."
"Ready for what?" he asked as I hung up the phone and pushed past him, making my way through the house and up the stairs to the bedroom.
"I'm leaving you Justin," I stated as we walked into the bedroom and he reached to grab my arm. I went around making a mental check.
"Leaving? But what about..." he began but I shook my head.
"The contract?" I answered, I shook myself free as he loosened his grip on my arm. "Don't worry about that. I will be back in a couple of days." I picked up one of Sara's toys.
"So that's it?" he asked me and I nodded, what else was there to talk about? "You're just going to walk away and not let me explain?"
"What is there to explain Justin? You've made your decision quite clear on what you want," I replied picking up Sara from her crib and grabbing her bag with my free hand as the door bell rang. I started walking out the room down stairs, Justin ran after me and managed to jog past me to the door, swinging it open only to see Mike.
"You're not taking them away from me," he told him, blocking his way.
"Justin we don't need any confrontation," Mike said trying to get past.
"Well I'm not moving," Justin confirmed and placed his hand on the door frame.
"Justin. Please," I pleaded from behind him, causing him to look over his shoulder at me and stepped aside to let Mike pass.
"Fine. But can't I at least say goodbye to my family?" he asked looking at Mike. Mike nodded and grabbed my bags from me.
"I'll be by the car," he said before walking away. Justin turned to me and pulled the blanket from Sara's face kissing her forehead.
"Bye Munchkin. Daddy loves you," he told her and looked at me. "I will fight for you."
"I know," I whispered sadly and turned away from him before he could kiss me and walked to the car to meet Mike.
After I left Justin I stayed with Mike and his wife for two days while I cleared my head, but part of me felt shame and the other part was asking why I should have been upset. I mean he was Justin Timberlake, womanizer, who was only attracted to women who were a size 2 and blonde.
I was laying in the bed with Sara, rubbing her bare back and wishing that her mother was there so I could ask for her advice. I couldn't believe that she was a month old and beginning to respond to our voices. Her skin color had changed to this honey brown chestnut color, and she had head full of black soft curls which I would run my fingers through, all day if I could. She had the biggest black eyes, and heart shaped lips.
"You're so beautiful," I whispered playing with her fingers. She gurgled and began to get fussy. "Hey? what's wrong?" She began a full on cry. "Ok let's try something new." I sat up and lay against the head board. I grabbed the pillow next to me and laid it on my lap, I picked up Sara and laid her on the pillow. I lifted my shirt up and pulled my left breast out of my bra and put it up to her lips, it took her a while to latch on but she eventually did. I had bonded with Sara many times but this time was different. For those fifteen minutes that she was with me I didn't think, I couldn't think of words to describe the kind of feelings I was going through. I smiled when her eyes began to close. "You sleepy Sara? I love you so much I just wish your daddy will get his head on straight." There was a knock on the door.
"Jen?" Mike asked behind the closed door.
"Come in," I said fixing my shirt and laying Sara on her blanket.
"Marcus is here and wants to talk to you," Mike replied.
"I'll be down in a minute," I said. He nodded and closed the door. I swaddled Sara in her blanket and got out of the bed and picked her up and headed down the stairs.
"Good afternoon Jen," Marcus said as I walked into the living room.
"Same to you."
"Jen you need to go back home and try and work it out with Justin," Marcus said getting to the point.
"I will I'm just clearing my head and trying to relax I don't like to complain but I have been working so hard with movies and the album...I just...I need some Jenny time that's all." I said.
"Well Johnny and I think it would be best if you go see him today."
"What if I don't want to?" I asked getting frustrated.
"Jen the holidays are coming up and we don't need you two being separated and rumors could start. Do this for Sara," he said. Now he was making me really making me mad.
"Oh please! Don't bring Sara into this. I think you've done enough with that," I snapped getting very upset.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Marcus I know about the contract that you and Johnny had pulled up after the accident. Justin told me," I informed him. What the hell was going on with people keeping secrets?
"It was Johnny's idea and I truly apologize," he said, he really looked remorse. I nodded. "Are you going to take up my offer?"
"Yeah," I said unsure of what I was getting into.
During my conversation with Marcus he convinced me to go back to Justin and try to make amends of the situation. I went upstairs, took a shower and got Sara ready. I changed into jeans, a red turtle neck and a black trench coat. Mike walked through the doorway and picked up my bags.
"Come on baby let's go," I said picking up Sara and snapping her into her carrier. Once we made it outside we were greeted by Kim, Mike's wife. "Thank you so much for having us you have a beautiful home."
"It was nice having the company," she said as we hugged.
The drive home was quiet and I was thinking of a way to punish Justin for what he did. Maybe I should stop feeding him? I can't take sex away considering we were never having it to begin with. No I think I'll give him the silent treatment that'll work., I thought to myself.
We pulled into the driveway, where Marcus helped me out of the car while Mike grabbed my bags. I unbuckled Sara from her car seat and knew she was due for a diaper change. Marcus lead me through the house and into the dining room where Johnny and Justin were sitting at the table.
"Afternoon Marcus. Jen," Johnny said. I nodded and smiled.
"I need to change her diaper," I said looking at Marcus. I didn't want to sit down and have a meeting right now, so much was going on. I just wanted to get out of there. Mike came up behind me with Sara's diaper bag and I took it before walking into the den. I laid Sara's blanket down on the couch and placed her on top of it, I unbuttoned my coat and laid it in the chair next to me. "Ok Sar-Sar, lets get you cleaned up." I took off her pants and looked inside her bag and pulled out a clean diaper, wipes and baby powder. As soon as I opened her diaper I caught a whiff of what was inside. "My goodness it gets worse every time." I laughed. I finished cleaning her up and put her clean diaper on when familiar lips hit my cheek.
"I missed you," he whispered in my ear. I decided to start giving him the silent treatment. He went and sat on the other side of Sara playing with her fingers. "Johnny called and asked to have a meeting today. Trace must have said something to him." Justin kissed the back of Sara's hand.
I put her pants back on and laid her on my shoulder before I got up off the couch leaving Justin in the room. All of a sudden I had changed my mind, having a meeting about our situation seemed much more nicer then be alone with him.
"Hey guys I'm ready," I said with a small smile.
Marcus pulled my chair out for me as Justin came in a few minutes later.
"Now that everyone is here we need to talk about the last three days," Johnny said looking over at Justin and I swore that felt like Deja-vu. "Justin told me what happened and I am very disappointed. I honestly don't blame you Jennifer for leaving...So it's up to you, would you like to continue or call it quits?"
"It's not like I have a choice, I'm going to loose Sara," I said.
"No you won't Justin will lose Sara," Johnny explained.
"What? Justin you told me that if we break the contract I would lose Sara as well. Or did you lie about that too?" I asked raising my voice.
"At the time I didn't know everything..." Justin began but I cut him off.
"Well if there's a next time, get your facts straight," I snapped angrily.
Throughout the rest of the meeting I had a serious head ache. I don't even remember what Johnny and Marcus said, I just kept my eyes on Justin the whole time. How could he lie to me about Sara?
After the meeting I went straight into one of the guest rooms with Sara. I laid her on the bed and took my heels off and laid next to her before I closed my eyes trying to get some much needed sleep.When I opened my eyes I felt a light touch on my cheek I tuned over and saw Kia.
"Hey momma, Sleep well?" she asked. I turned back over to see Sara awake and moving her arms. "She's ok I already fed her so she should be back down in a little while."
"How long have I been sleep?" I asked with a yawn as I sat up..
"When I got here it was about three hours ago," Kia explained.
"Three hours?" I guess staying up with Sara the past two days took a toll on me.
"You needed the rest," Kia answered.
"I guess I'm just so use to Justin being up with her in the middle of the night," I said and began to smile. "You gave him whip lash the other night."
"He deserved it. He needs to know that I'll do anything to protect my sister," she said holding my hand.
"Thanks where's Trace?" I asked.
"He and Justin went to go play some golf they should be home soon, are you planning on leaving him?" Kia asked.
"I haven't really decided yet, did you know that if I break the contract I get to keep Sara while Justin has to be 100 ft away from us?" I asked and Kia shook her head.
"What!?...No...that's like a restraining order," she answered.
"I know."
"He deserves it," Kia said.
"Yeah maybe," I said looking at Sara.
I was busy getting ready in the bathroom when I heard the bedroom door close.
"Kia did you forget something?" I asked and walked into the room and stopped in my tracks. "What are you doing here?" I gave him a couple minutes to answer. "Justin you need to leave." I walked over to the bed where he was sitting with his head in his hands and moved in front of him. "Did you hear what I said?" He reached out and grabbed my waist, pulling me close and laid his head on my stomach. "Justin Please..." I whispered and ran my fingers through his hair as he began kissing my stomach and nibbling it through the gown.
"I need you...I need you so bad," he said.
"Justin I can't..."
His lips moved up my stomach, in between my breasts, while his hand slipped under my night gown rubbing my thighs and I started to feel this warming sensation between my legs. He grabbed the back of my knee and pulled it over his lap, I leaned into him to catch my balance as he did the same with the other leg. I sat on his lap and felt his hard member poke through his pants and rub against my underwear. He began kissing my chest and pulled me closer, grabbing my butt to get better access.
"We shouldn't...be... Mmmm...doing this," I said between my moans. His hand slipped under my night gown over my butt and bare back. He kissed behind my ear and I lost it I became submissive to him. His right hand massaged my breast and kissed my ear, his lips moved to my mouth then he kissed me. I was completely turned off, his breath smelt like beer mixed with vodka. "Justin stop." He continued kissing my neck. "Justin I said stop." His hand pulled my breast out of my gown and pinched my nipple roughly. "JUSTIN STOP IT!"
Justin and I stood there looking at each other. I grabbed his hand and lead him to the bedroom and got him dressed and put him to bed. The next morning Justin had a killer head ache, which I knew was coming, but we didn't talk about what happened the night before. I didn't want to talk it was explainable.
For the next week we went about our business, talking only when we had to. I visited my mother for two days before Christmas eve. Justin and I decided to visit his family since he hadn't seen them in over two months. Sara and I boarded the jet Justin had planned for us and headed out to Memphis before I left to visit my mom.
After we landed Mike lead us through the terminal to the black SUV waiting outside. Mike helped me into the car and helped the luggage handlers with my bags. The ride was nice, I admired the Christmas lights, the snow in the night air, the whole ambiance was beautiful. We pulled up into the driveway to what I assume was Justin's home.
"We're here," Mike said as he turned the car off and got out. He opened my door and I got out, watching him grab Sara's carrier while I grabbed her diaper bag. Mike lead us up the steps to the front door and my stomach began to turn. I was so nervous about meeting his parents. Would they accept me? His father probably thinks I tried to trap him. I thought to myself. I rang the doorbell.
"You're awfully quiet," Mike said breaking our silence.
"I'm nervous..." The door opened before I could finish the sentence and I was face-to-face with an older looking version of Justin.
"You must be my new daughter-in-law. Come inside," the man said. He helped me take off my coat while a woman made her presence known.
"Well hello there, welcome to Memphis," she smiled.
"Hello," I said.
"I'm Lisa, Justin's stepmom, it's so nice to meet you," she said giving me a hug.
"It's nice to meet you too," I said smiling.
"I'm Randal, Justin's dad," the man said, opening his arms and giving me a hug.
"Nice to meet you Randal," I replied.
"Who is this?" Lisa asked looking behind me and going over to Sara.
"This is Sara." I said smiling.
"And you Sir?" Randal asked reaching his hand out to Mike.
"Hi I'm Mike Jen's bodyguard."
"Please don't mind my wife," Randal said.
"It's ok I'm used to it," Mike said sharing a laugh with Randal.
"I am so sorry, Lisa." She held out her hand.
"Why don't we go into the living room?" Randal said. Lisa took Sara from Mike and walked into the living room, I followed close behind. Lisa sat Sara on the couch and I helped her lift the cover off before sitting down.
"OH she is so beautiful. Lynn and Justin said she was gorgeous. I knew I had to see for myself," Lisa said unbuckling her straps and picking her up.
"Thank you," I said sitting next to her.
"Would ya'll like something to drink?" Randal asked sitting in the near by chair.
"No Sir I'm fine," Mike and I replied.
"Justin is feeling a little under the weather today," Randal said.
"He's been sleeping half of the day. I hope you two have big appetites," Lisa said.
"I know I do," Mike said. Sara became fussy so I reached into her diaper bag for her bottle.
"I can feed her if you would like. I know you want to see Justin," Lisa said.
"Thank you I really appreciate it," I said handing her Sara's bottle.
"Let me take you to Justin's room," Randal said.
"Come on Mike. I have a plate of fried chicken with your name on it," Lisa said taking Sara into the kitchen, Mike followed. I followed Randal up the stairs to see Justin.
"I'm not sure if he's up," Randal said opening the door. He ushered me in and I looked around and notice the bed wasn't made and had tissues all over it. The toilet flushed. "I guess he is up. I'll be down stairs if you need anything." Randal closed the door and I turned to look at the bathroom and a tired looking Justin came out blowing his nose. I couldn't help but smile.
"Hey you," I said, he smiled showing his pearly whites. He walked over to me but I took a step back. "This will be the only time I let you hug me when your sick." I wrapped my arms around his neck and his arms wrapped around my waist. I scratched the hairs on the back of his neck, it was a pretty long hug.
"I missed you," he whispered.
"I missed you too," I confessed. I felt his fever
through his clothes. "Justin you're warm." I broke the hug looking up at him and saw the beads of sweat on his forehead. He moved away from me and let out a loud cough. I rubbed his back. "Na Huh. You are getting in the bed and you're going to stay there for the rest of the night." I pulled him over to the bed and straightened up the bed for him. His hands stayed on my waist.
"Are you going to get in it with me?" he asked squeezing my hips.
"No," I said turning to face him. "Now get into the bed." I watched him get under the covers.
"I want to see my baby girl," he whined.
"You'll see her in the morning, if you're better," I said walking into the bathroom to get a wash cloth. I wet it with hot water and ringed it out before walking back into the room. "Move over." I sat on the side of the bed and rubbed the cloth over his forehead and arms. I pulled the covers back and lifted his shirt up to his chest when the cloth hit his chest he let out a small hiss. I couldn't help but smile.
"What are you smiling about?" he asked with a smirk.
"Nothing," I said.
"This is pretty," he said touching the diamond cross around my neck.
"Thank you, it's from J.C. An early Christmas present," I said and laughed at the look on his face.
"You know I don't like it when you play like that," he said playing with my necklace.
"I know." Before I knew it I kissed him on the lips. I stayed up with Justin for the rest of the night making sure he got the care that he needed. I finally got him to sleep with the help of Nightquill, then I went downstairs to check on Sara. Lisa was sitting on the couch holding a sleeping Sara.
"Hey," I whispered.
"She finally went to sleep," Lisa said passing me Sara. "Mike brought in your bags and her play pen." Lisa helped me with my bags and Randal brought up Sara's play pen/bassinet and laid her down. I was so glad I had put her pajamas on before we left. I got in the bed with Justin and his arm slipped around my waist. I grabbed his hand and he laced his fingers with mine and fell asleep.
I was sitting in the middle of the bed reading my script for a movie I was starting in January when Justin woke up. This was the first morning that he felt a lot better. His fever had gone but his nose was still red. Mike flew back home early that morning to be with his family for the holidays. Lynn and Paul were planing on being there later in the day. I could hear Justin talking in the hallway and it seemed like a heated conversation. He walked in, phone attached to his ear and Sara against his shoulder.
"Listen Johnny, we're not doing it," Justin said. "I don't care how much money is involved Sara is not going to be part of it. You're crazy if you think......" My ears perked up and I took off my glasses. Justin put the phone between is ear and his shoulder and gave me Sara.
"What's wrong?" I mouthed. He just shook his head and walked over to the window continuing his conversation.
"Johnny can we talk about this later...Yeah I will. I'll talk to you later...Merry Christmas to you too." He hung up and turned to face me.
"What's wrong?" I asked rubbing Sara's back.
"People Magazine want a photo shoot of you and Sara they're asking for 5 million," he said.
"Wow we're worth more than Brad and Angie's baby," I said laughing. Justin didn't find it funny."Come on Justin, I think we should do it..."
"Why?" Justin said interrupting me.
"Maybe doing this will take some of the pressure off the paps trying to get a picture," I reasoned.
"Having Sara on the front of a magazine is not going to stop the paps, trust me," Justin said walking back forth.
"Justin relax. We have plenty of time to think about this, enjoy the time with your family. This is Sara's first Christmas," I said smiling. Justin smiled back and came over to pick Sara up.
"I heard that Santa has lots of presents for you," Justin said kissing her nose.
Later in the evening Lynn and Paul came over and Justin's brothers came home after spending the night at a friend's house. They were in love with Sara, each of them took turns holding her but they really didn't like dirty diapers. I met Justin's grandparents, and they were very sweet and friendly and they loved Sara as well. I was enjoying the Christmas lights on the tree and didn't notice Rachel sit next to me.
"You look like you could use this," Rachel said handing me a glass of wine.
"Thank you, but I don't drink."
"Just a sip it won't hurt I promise."
"OK just a sip," I said taking the glass from her and taking a sip I put the glass on the table.
"Trace and Kia are getting pretty heavy huh?" she asked making conversation.
"Seems like it. Kia invited Trace to visit her family for the Holiday, right now I'm trying to keep Justin and her from killing each other," I said.
"Really? Hmm...." she said nodding her head. We turned to each other and starting laughing. Rachel was a fun girl to hang out with and I saw why she and Justin were close. I turned my attention to Justin, who was stilting at the piano with Sara, talking to her and playing with the keys. A small smile formed on my lips. "He's great with her, she was all he talked about before ya'll came." I nodded my head and watched Randal come over and take Sara from Justin.
"Rachel honey I need your help," Lisa said.
"Here I come! I'll talk to you later," Rachel answered standing up.
"Of course girl," I answered back as we pecked each other on the cheek and she went to help Lisa. I got up off the couch and walked over to Justin. I rubbed the back of his neck and leaned against the piano.
"Any requests?" Justin asked smiling.
"Ummm how about Amazing Grace? The Baptist version."
"You think I don't know that version?"
"Just play the song," I said laughing and began singing.
I rolled over on my side and was met with blue eyes staring back at me.
"Merry Christmas," Justin said and pecked my lips.
"Merry Christmas," I whispered kissing him back a little longer. I broke the kiss and a loud booming noise was heard down the hall.
"Looks like the boys are up," Justin said turning over to pick up a crying Sara. I looked over at the clock and it read 6:30 a.m. I followed behind Justin grabbing the back of his shirt as he lead us through the dark hall and down the stairs. We made it to the living room filled with paper wrappings all over the floor.
Justin and I sat and watched the boys open their gifts and Randal and Lisa joined us later. We all went to Christmas day service at the church and had dinner with the family. Two days later Justin took me around Memphis. We visited the Rock N Soul museum and the National Civil Rights museum which was emotional for both of us. We dined at one of Justin's favorite restaurants.
Justin was laying on the couch in the basement and we were enjoying American Gangster on bootleg, yeah that's right bootleg.
"Why are you sitting all the way over there?" Justin asked. I shrugged my shoulders really into the movie. "Come over here and lay next to me."
"Are you asking me or telling me?" I said staring at the T.V
"I'm telling you," he said. I looked at him and got up and laid next to him with my back against his chest he wrapped the blanket around us. Ten minutes later I felt light kisses on the back of my neck, I was trying to ignore them but I felt my eyes get lazy, his lips were so soft. I leaned my head back to give him more access, and his arm wrapped around my waist, his lips ran up my jaw and captured my lips. I slipped my tongue out lightly touching his. I smiled against his lips when I felt him shudder. He leaned over me forcing me on my back. I opened my legs and he eased between them. Our make out session continued for a couple of minutes till I realized where we were.
"Justin we should stop," I said breaking our kiss. He ignored what I said. "Someone might find or come looking for us."
"No they won't," he said pulling the blanket over us. I giggled and continued our session.
"Hey Justin!" Johnathan came running down the stairs and I pushed Justin off of me, causing him to land on the floor. I tried to fix my clothes before he saw me.
"Hey Jen have you seen Justin?" Johnathan asked.
"I'm right here," Justin said from under the
blanket on the floor.
"Sara needs her diaper changed and mom and dad are getting ready to go out."
"Ok I'll be there in a minute," he replied as we watched Johnathan leave.
"That was close," I said.
Justin got up, leaving the blanket on the floor and I bent over to pick it up when I felt this sting and a loud smack on my behind.
"I'll deal with you later tonight, Sexy Thang," Justin said huskily walking away.
"We'll see," I said to myself.
