Scream For me

AARON

Jade was everything. I hadn’t thought I would feel this close to someone in such a short timehell, I hadn’t thought I would feel this close to someone… ever. Jade wasn’t like other women, and the world made sense when I was with her.

People always told me I would find someone. Noah had said countless times that I would find the woman for me and nothing else would matter anymore. After how Sabrina had screwed me over in more ways than one, I hadn’t believed it. I’d been more than happy to live my life without someone permanent in it.

Everything was different now.From NôvelDrama.Org.

We still had to figure out the logistics, of course. She was my nanny, and we still had to tell Ben what was happening. My stomach twisted at the thought. How would he feel about having someone in our lives? It had always just been me and him.

On the plane back home, Jade and I sat on either side of Ben. He sat between us, happily chatting away about his time with Alex.

“The snow was so high up against the window, we couldn’t even see if it was day or night!” he cried. “Uncle Jack said there are countries where they don’t even see the sun all winter long. Is that true, Dad?”

“That’s very true,” I said. “They live in total darkness for six months of the year.”

Ben frowned. “That doesn’t sound right…don’t they have lights they can put on?”

I laughed. “Yeah, buddy, they have lights they can switch on. Streetlights and lights inside and lights in the shops. The sun just doesn’t come up.”

“That’s weird.” Ben looked at Jade. “That’s weird, right, Jade?”

“It’s very weird, but I think the people who live there are used to it. You can get used to anything, and if it’s all you know…did you know there’s only sunlight during the other six months of the year, and the sun doesn’t go down? Even when it’s bedtime.”

I watched her as she tried to explain to Ben how it worked, and why the sun was so different in countries so far up North. I watched as he drank in everything she said and seeing them together made me smile. Ben looked like he could be Jade’s son. He had my eyesdark and pensivebut he had the same sandy hair Jade had. Of course, he’d gotten that from his mother, but the term mother had become relative to me.

A mother wasn’t necessarily someone who birthed my child. A mother was the person who put her all into him like Jade was doing.

Like I wanted her to keep doing for years and years to come.

When she glanced up at me, feeling my eyes on her, her eyes sparkled, and she smiled. Something passed between usan understanding, a warm knowing of what we were and where we were headed. I hadn’t felt this calm and comfortable in a decision I’d made for a long time.

After we arrived at the airport, I had a car take us back to the apartment.

When we opened the door, Ben ran inside and to the television.

“Hey, buddy, we need to get bags into the room and unpacked first.”

“Just half an hour, Dad,” Ben wailed. “We didn’t get any TV time at Alex’s house. Aunt Carol said we were going to get square eyes.”

I hesitated before I nodded. “Okay, half an hour, and then we’re unpacking. Deal?”

“Deal,” Ben said.

I turned to Jade, where she still stood by the door. We were around the corner where Ben couldn’t see us, and I stepped closer to her, running the back of my fingers down her cheeks. She looked at me with those warm eyes and a smile curled around her lips.

“God, you’re beautiful,” I said.

She blushed. I loved making her blush.

“Thank you for a great week,” she said.

“No, no.” I leaned over and kissed her. I slid my tongue into her mouth, and she sighed against me. I leaned my body against her, pushing the length of my body against hers, and my cock twitched in my pants, need swirling inside me. I wanted her naked and underneath me again. Or on top of me. I wanted her on her knees in front of me, her lips wrapped around my cock. I broke the kisswe would have plenty of time for that in the future. Right now, I had to focus on getting Ben unpacked and being back. “Thank you,” I finished the sentence I’d started before the kiss.

“I’ll see you tomorrow,” she said.

I nodded. She was on duty again tomorrow, picking Ben up from school, doing the homework drill, cooking…

“I want to see you this weekend,” I said. “I want to take you out on a proper date.”

Jade smiled and nodded. “I’d like that.”

“Good,” I said with a grin and planted one more kiss on her lips. “Get out of here before I drag you into the bedroom instead.” Jade giggled.

“Bye, Ben!” she called into the apartment.

“Bye, Jade!” he called back without coming to the door to hug her.

Jade walked to the elevator, pulling her wheeled suitcase behind her. I watched her goshe was delicious in every way.

She smiled at me one more time before the elevator doors closed, and she disappeared.

I shook my head, grinning when I returned to the apartment to watch some television with Ben. Tomorrow, she would come to be Ben’s nanny. This week I would try to figure something out so that I could either replace her as a nanny or we could figure something else out. It would take a bit of time to figure out the logistics, but I didn’t want Jade to be the nanny anymore. I wanted to bump her up to girlfriend status, which meant taking her off my payroll. I needed to be very clear about where we stood, and I wasn’t going to pay her to be mine.

That would just be wrong.

Someone knocked on the door, and I smiled.

“Did you forget something?” I asked, walking to the door. “Ben, you have five more minutes.” I pointed at the clock against the wall. “Check the time, and when your five minutes are up, I want you in that room. Got it?”

Ben nodded. “Got it.” He glanced at the clock before his eyes slid back to the screen.

I opened the door with a smile, but my smile faded when it wasn’t Jade in front of me.

My stomach twisted before it dropped, and my blood ran cold.

The woman before me was the spitting image of Ben, with sandy hair, bronze skin, and a curvy figure. She looked at me with cold blue eyes, and her lips were puffier than they’d been before.

“Hello, Aaron,” she said.

I swallowed hard. “Sabrina.”

“Are you just going to stare at me, or are you going to invite me in?” she asked when I didn’t move, frozen at the sight of her.
