Happiness floods me at his words, I want that too, but I know we shouldn't. And what about Eli - is Jack the kind of guy who would take on someone else's child?
“I want to carry this on too Jack - whatever it is - but what about dad? If he found out he could screw with your career, I know him, he'd do it in a heartbeat. He can be so cold. I found that out the hard way.”
“He doesn't have to know while we're figuring this out. No one really has to know. I’ll tell Denny, because well, I tell him everything, and you can tell Sophie because we can trust her, but that’s it.”
“I don't know Jack, my dad is pretty shrewd, nothing gets past him.”
He sighs “I don't want to give this up and I don't think you do either.”
I lean in and touch my mouth to his. “I don't.” I say softly
“We’ll be clever about it - but I want to spend time with you - with Eli too. I don't just want to sneak in when he’s in bed, I want to spend time with you both. We’ll tell Eli that I'm just a friend - he’s young - he won't read anything into it, he just loves me being around.”
“I don't know Jack, he idolises you. If this, whatever it is between us, doesn't work out and he’s gotten attached to you . . . I don't want him hurt. His happiness is my priority. No offence, but your record, you don't stick around long.”
“No, I don't stick around at all, I don't even go back for seconds but I'm throwing the rule book out of the window with you. I can't make any promises, all I can say is I won't willingly hurt anyone and I want to see where it goes.”
I think about it. I love how he is with Eli, he’s good with him. But with Bobby back on the scene, if he wants visits with Eli I have to be on my best behaviour, but then, I deserve to have a life, I'm allowed to have a relationship. A relationship with a self-confessed man-whore, super-bike racer with no responsibilities? Maybe not the best choice, but the heart wants what it wants - and it wants him.
I nod “OK. Let's see where it goes.”
His eyebrows shoot up. “Seriously? Jesus, I never thought you'd agree to it. Guess I must be pretty awesome huh?”
I slap his chest. “You're OK. It’s just your dick I'm after really.” I say jokingly
“Robyn! I think you're spending too much time with me. Now I'm hurt - you just want me for my body.”
I raise my eyebrows at him suggestively.
“Now Idefinitelythink you just want me for my body.”
I lift myself over him and straddle him, his eyes going wide. “What are you gonna do about that?”
I feel his dick twitching again between my legs, knowing it's getting ready for another round.
“Well, I do think that we should consummate this agreement, don't you?”
He growls and flips me over. “Abso-fucking-lutely.”
We get down to consummating the agreement and he makes me come twice. Awesome.
Chapter 18
Robyn
Elijah comes running in the next morning at six am - his usual wake up time. I’ve never needed an alarm. He comes in and jumps on the bed, I’m so relieved that Jack ended up leaving around three thirty but exhausted on a few hours of sleep. Early night for me tonight for sure. I feel like Snow White this morning, well, Snow White with huge bags under her eyes; the scene where she wakes up and has birds singing in her ear and a deer and rabbit run around her feet. I'm on such a high. The evening the three of us had, having dinner, him reading to Eli, and what happened after Eli had gone to bed. Jack wants to see me again. Everyone who knows him says how he never wants a relationship and I can tell he’s terrified that he wants to see me, but the fact that he’s giving it a go despite all that, makes me feel special.
I can't wait to go into work and see him again, even though it's only been a few hours.
I have breakfast with Eli and then get him off to school. Saturday tomorrow, I must book the aquarium tickets and we’ll go there early.
When I get to work there’s no sign of Jack in the cafeteria, I walk in and go for my usual coffee, the girl that works there, Geraldine, knows me by now.
“Morning hun,” I say to her
She looks up. “Morning Robyn. I have something for you.”
“Do you? What?”
