Skylar was at the make-up station, her hair was getting curled there were other girls around her, and they were even some male models around as well and Jacob was liking it.

“I loved you in the Vogue spring shoot last year” the makeup artist said.

“Thanks, it was hot that day I kind of got a sunburn” Skylar said.

“What made you move this way last I heard you were in New York City?” the make-up artist said.

“I was but my mother got sick, and I thought it was the right time to come home” Skylar said.

“Oh, sorry to hear is she doing, okay?” the make-up artist said.

“Yes, she’s fine now had the surgery done” Skylar said.

“Well, I think you will rock this shoot and show those arrogant younger models whose boss” the make-up artist said.

“Yeah, there always that one girl that is like that and I know my friend Katie was like that when I first met her but after a while, she was able to show her other side which was way different” Skylar said.

“Katie? You mean Moi” Skylar heard a voice behind her.

Skylar turn around and laughed out, as she got up and gave Katie a hug.

“What are you doing here?” Skylar said.

“Well, Leigh called and asked if I would want to work with you, and honestly I was surprised that you moved this way” Katie said.

“I know sorry for disappearing, but mom was sick and needed surgery and wanted to be there for her” Skylar said.

“Babes, Ohh. Hello” Jacob said.

“Jacob this is one of my friends Katie and Katie this is my baby daddy Jacob” Skylar said.

“Your pregnant” Katie said.

Skylar smiled and nodded her head to her, and Katie squealed out and gave her a hug.

“Congratulations” Katie said.

“Thank you” Skylar said.

“And you take care of my baby girl” Katie said.

“You know, I am not only her baby daddy but also childhood best friend and lawyer” Jacob said.

Skylar chuckled and Jacob was giving her a side hug.

“Ladies we need you in a few” the photographer said.

“Well talk more during dinner?” Skylar asked.

“Okay” Katie said.

Skylar quickly got her hair and make-up finished and changed into her first outfit and the photographer called her, Jacob went towards the small set and watched.

“She’s amazing right.” Katie said.

“More then amazing, I feel bad for Avery” Jacob said.

“Whose Avery?” Katie said.

“Her boyfriend” Jacob said.

“Wait I thought you were the boyfriend” Katie said.

“No just a sperm donor and plus I am dating her boss” Jacob said.

“Nigel?” Katie said.

“No, Ethan he owns an art gallery” Jacob said.

“She’s still doing her art that’s nice I love her painting” Katie said.

“Hey what did I-Woah” Avery said.

“Oh, Avery you’re here” Jacob said.

“What shoot is this?” Avery asked.

“Lingerie” Katie said.

“Sorry, Avery this Katie, Skylar’s friend and Katie this Avery, Skylar’s boyfriend” Jacob said.

“So, you’re the boyfriend. Your hot, Skylar is a lucky girl” Katie said.

Avery nodded his head but was still looking at Skylar as she was modeling with the male model, Katie smirk as she saw this and went to Jacob and whispered in his ears as he nodded his head, the photographer was trying to tell the male model.

“You have to look in love with each other, look at Skylar how she shows her love with her eyes but also posing at the same time” the photographer said.

“Okay” the male model said.

“Why not take five and can I have Katie over” the photographer said.

Skylar nodded her head and got down from the bed and went back towards the back when she saw Avery, she got a bit shy.

“You’re here” Skylar said.

“Yeah, I didn’t know it was this kind of shoot” Avery said.

“Yeah, well it was at the last minute for me they want to get all the sexy clothes out of the way before I start showing” Skylar said.

Avery took Skylar’s hand.

“Well, I think you look amazing in the shoot” Avery said.

“I was a ball of nerves but now I am getting back in the habit” Skylar said.

Avery smiled and kissed her head out of know where.

“Well, I will be right here cheering you on” Avery said.

“Thanks, I have to get a touch up” Skylar said.

“Okay” Avery said.

Skylar smiled at him as a woman went up to her giving her a robe and they went back to make-up mirror, Avery watched her when he felt a tap on his shoulder he turns and saw the photographer in front of him.

“You are Miss. Skylar’s boyfriend?” The man said.

“Yes, he is this is Avery, and they are expecting their first child” Jacob said.

“Great, can you model I really need to get this shot but none of the models are showing the love like Skylar is.” the mand said.

Before Avery can say anything, the man started yelling out orders to some people came to him as Jacob looked towards Katie who was giving him a thumbs up and Jacob wink back at her.

“What are you guys doing?” Skylar said.

 “Nothing, you look sexy” Jacob said.

“Red for hot” Skylar said.

“I like the lace flowing down, is that a thong?” Jacob said.

“Yeah, weird but some people are weird” Skylar said.

“Well, are you getting back on the bed” Jacob said.

“Yes, hopefully this model can actually show his love on his face instead of just be boring, I am getting hungry” Skylar said.

“Go get them” Jacob said.

Skylar smiled and went back to the set as the Photographer was looking through the photo and talking to the male model that was working with Skylar.

“Look at this every photo you look like lust instead of love this is the love line for valentine” Marco said.

“Marco take it easy” Skylar said.

“Child if he doesn’t get this right, I will have to go with my back up” Marco said.

“Maybe we should do a shot with the back up and show him. Will that be okay with you?” Skylar said.

The model nodded his head.

“Okay, fine bring in the back-up” Marco yelled.

Skylar sigh out and went to the set she moved her hair back and looked up as Avery was walking towards her, Skylar smiled at him.

“What are you doing?” Skylar asked.

“I don’t one minute there was shouting next people were taking my clothes off” Avery said.

“Alright make love eyes” Marco said.

Skylar wanted to laugh but she went with towards the bed where they would shoot with Avery beside her, and they began shooting the frame.

“Okay face each other” Marco said.

Skylar faced Avery.

“You nervous?” Skylar said.

“No” Avery said.

Skylar smiled and nodded her head to him, as she was looking at Avery, she finally saw the love look that Jacob was talking about which in a result in her getting red in the face and shy as she was looking at him.

“And that’s a shoot” Marco said.

Skylar smiled at him.

“Alright next models, and Skylar thank you and your boyfriend for the help” Marco said.

“Boyfri-“Skylar was saying.

“Skylar that was just wonderful” Katie said.

“Thanks, but I have to go change now” Skylar said.

“You wouldn’t mind if I invite Ethan” Jacob said.

“The more the merrier” Skylar said.

“Want to wait outside?” Avery said.

“Yeah” Skylar said.

Avery helped Skylar as they held hands and went towards down the building, that they did not notice the paparazzi taking photos.

“Are you okay is little pea, okay?” Avery said.

He kneeled and held her stomach, Skylar was smiling at him.

“Just hungry” Skylar said.

At that moment, her stomach growled, and Skylar laughed and gave him a small push.

“Get up” Skylar said.

“Okay, sorry Pea have to go and feed you” Avery said.

He gave her stomach a quick peck and stood back up kissing her head, Skylar got shy and put her face in his chest.

“Hey love birds you ready” Katie said.

Katie and Jacob came out of the building, Skylar nodded her head and Avery wrap his arms around Skylar as they walked towards the cars.

“Get Tucker on the phone tell him we got some juice for the article, seems like Miss. Sky didn’t retire after all” the paparazzi said.

“So, when is the baby due?” Katie said.

“Well, I am about seven weeks now so that probably about January” Skylar said.

Ethan looked at Jacob and he looked at him too.

“Oh, hope it’s a Capricorn baby, like me” Katie said.

They kept talking even when their food arrived, they took about two hours before they all went their own ways back to the hotel.

“There is a pull-out couch” Skylar said.

“He can take my room; I will be having a night cap with Ethan” Jacob said.

“Night cap?” Skylar said smirking at him.

“Shut up, I will see you too later” Jacob said.

Skylar hummed at him, as he left, and it was just the two lefts.

“How far is the hotel from the restaurant?” Avery asked.

“A couple of blocks away” Skylar said.

“Okay, well I will follow you behind” Avery said.

Skylar smiled and nodded her head, as they both got into sperate rides and drove to the hotel.

“Which floor?” Avery asked.

“The penthouse” Skylar said.

Avery pressed the floor number and went up; Avery was holding Skylar and she felt comfortable as he was holding her.

“Are you full?” Avery asked.

“Very” Skylar said.

“Good, are you feeling tired?” Avery asked.

“Not without a shower first and probably watch a movie before bed” Skylar said.

“Okay, shower then movie” Avery said.

Skylar smiled and nodded her head, they elevator had stop and they went out as they walked to the room, Skylar showed him the room and Skylar went to her bathroom as she took her shower doing her thing quick. Skylar changed into her sleep wear silk tank top and shorts was a pink champagne color, she dried her hair and brushed her teeth before going out of the room, where she lotion her skin then she heard the tv on, so she went out of the room.

“What do you want to watch?” Avery said.

“Let’s watch what you like” Skylar said.

“Okay” Avery said.

Skylar grabbed a light blanket and sat down beside Avery as he was looking through the movie list and he picked Titanic.

“Titanic?” Skylar said.

“Yeah, I know it’s long, but I like it” Avery said.

“Okay” Skylar said.

Avery played the movie, about halfway through the movie Skylar was laying against his chest as they were watching it.

“Does this count as a date?” Skylar asked.

“I think it does” Avery said.

“Make sure by the end of the night you walk me back to the door” Skylar said.

Avery chuckled out.

“Does that mean your getting sleepy?” Avery said.

“Yeah, as much as I want to finish the movie, I’m getting tired” Skylar said.

“That would be little Pea talking saying mommy bedtime” Avery said.

Skylar laughed out.

“Come on darling let get you both to bed” Avery said.

“Cuddles?” Skylar asked.

“We can cuddle” Avery said.

Avery picked up Skylar and carried her to where she was sleeping at put her down and Avery laid down beside her as Skylar cuddle up to him and he was running his hand through her hair.

“Today, when Marco said you were my boyfriend” Skylar said.

“Jacob and Katie” Avery said.

Skylar groan out and shook her head as she placed her head in his chest.

“Sorry those two, I knew they would hit if off they can be mischief” Skylar said.

“It’s fine, I kind of like it” Avery said.

“What being my boyfriend or being called my boyfriend” Skylar said.

“Both. Can I?” Avery asked.

“Avery Willison, are you asking me to be your girlfriend?” Skylar asked.

“What you want to call this friend taking friends out?” Avery said.

“More like Avery taking Skylar out” Skylar said.

“Or we can just call it Single guy and Pregnant girl take out night” Avery said.

Skylar laughed.

“I will be the single guy” Skylar said chuckling.

“And I can be the pregnant girl, baby rub my belly I ate so much for dinner and the baby is really moving around” Avery said.

Skylar was laughing out.

“You want to carry this baby for me” Skylar said.

“I would but I have a different package then you and nobody would want to see a baby coming out of my p***s” Avery said.

“Ugh, your right nobody would want to see that.” Skylar said.

“So, what are we calling this? We just change the subject” Avery said.

“Honestly, I was surprised when they called you that today and it made me feel a bit comfortable and giddy” Skylar said.

“So, I take that as a yes” Avery said.

Skylar thought about it was she really ready for a relationship but felt too soon or was she just scared to move on. Avery can see the slight hesitation in her eyes.

“Was there someone else?” Avery asked.

Skylar looked at him with wide eyes, as he was looking at her, but his eyes were soft, so she nodded her head slowly.

“I guess I’m just scared and not ready” Skylar said.

“Did you love him” Avery said.

“Yeah, but guess love just wasn’t enough plus he was a playboy god I have the worst taste in men” Skylar said.

“Well, when your ready I’ll be here” Avery said.

“I can’t ask you to wait for me” Skylar said.

“You don’t have too, I want too” Avery said.

“Avery” Skylar said.

“Skylar it’s okay, I’ll wait” Avery said.

Skylar did not know what to say she did not even nod her head, and she just snuggle up to Avery as he began running his fingers through her hair, Skylar was thinking as she was laying there.

“So, are we just friends that go on dates?” Skylar asked.

“We are friends that cuddle and date with no title until you’re ready” Avery said.

“No title?” Skylar said.

“Yes, no title just friends” Avery said.

“We are some kind of f****d” Skylar chuckled.

Avery laughed out.

“Look at you Skylar Williams cussing” Avery said.

“I cuss, just not a lot” Skylar said.

“Well, I never heard before” Avery said.

“Okay this would be my fourth time since I cussed before” Skylar said.

“Really?” Avery said.

“Yes, what about you?” Skylar said.

“Oh, lots of times, I have a bad mouth but in front of a lady never” Avery said.

“Well, I have to see that” Skylar said.

“Get some sleep, you have a shoot in the morning” Avery said.

“Fine” Skylar said.

Avery chuckled a bit, and Skylar got comfortable, and she was able to finally fall asleep.
