Consequences Pt. 06

"Hey no-whip Jen," the shaggy haired barista said to Jen as she walked into the Starbucks. "Let me guess, tall caramel skinny latte." He paused dramatically and added "With no whip!"

"You got it," Jen said with a laugh. "Decaf too, okay?" She subtlety padded her tummy. She was trying to eat better for the baby. "What's your name anyway?"

"Joey," he said smiling.

"Okay, well hi Joey," Jen said smiling back. She walked over to the side to wait for her coffee. She felt a finger stab her back. She turned and saw Scott.

"You're a big cock tease," Scott said grinning. "Where'd you go after the pool?"

"Quiet okay?" Jen said. She got her coffee from Joey, giving him a quick smile of thanks, then she and Scott sat down at a corner table. "I had other plans," she said.

"Two nights in a row?" Scott said. "Are you dicking with me?"

"You're the one coming on to me," Jen said calmly. "If you don't like it, go away."

"I apologized to Mike about the video," Scott said holding out his hands in surrender. He leaned forward and put his hand on her knee. "Come on Jen we had fun in Vegas. I know you want me as much as I want you. I heard you and Allie did a show for Mike. I'm cool if he watches us. I'll be nice, I promise."

"It's not that easy Scott," Jen said pushing his hand away.

"Why not?"

"Because I said so," she said getting up.

"Bitch," Scott said. "You're a real cock tease."

"Bitch or cock tease?" Jen said with a teasing smile. "I've known guys like you all my life Scott. I don't feel sorry for you. You'll get your Google debrief report to me today right?"

"Yeah, sure, whatever," he said looking pissed.

She gave him a friendly smile and ruffled his hair. "We had fun Scott, let's leave it at that."

As she walked back to the office she frowned seeing Tom outside, catching a smoke with some other co-workers. "Hey Jen," he said with a friendly smile. He pulled out his pack of cigarettes. "Want one?"

"Thanks but no," Jen said stepping away from the smoke. "I'm trying to cut back."

"I get that," Tom said. "Can I talk to you a minute?"

Jen walked with him to the side, bracing for the worse. Was he going to guilt trip her again?

"Listen, I wanted to apologize," he said. "I've been thinking, replaying things. I was a real jerk trying to get you to leave Mike."

"Okay," Jen said warily. God, when it rains it pours.

Tom heard the skepticism in her voice. "I get you probably don't believe me," he said with a sheepish smile. "Here's the thing. You know my marriage with Adria cratered? I guess I got cynical about marriage. You did made it clear from the start it was only temporary. Looking back, I feel like a jerk for trying to break you and Mike up." He laughed. "You two have a strange relationship, but hey it works for you."

"Okay well, thanks Tom," Jen said still wary. "Um ... how's Tommy?"

"He's okay," Tom said smiling sheepishly again. "That's another thing. I shouldn't have guilted you about him. You were just being nice." He saw the wariness in her face and laughed. "I don't blame you, after what I did I wouldn't believe me either. I just wanted to get that off my chest, it's been bothering me." He started to go but then turned back. He looked her up and down and said with a smile, "You look incredible by the way."

Jen shook her head walking back to her office. Seriously? Both Scott and Tom on the same day? Whatever.

Mike had left that morning for London again. She already missed him. But she was busy. She had to finish her speech. Mike would get back later that week and then they were off to Penn State for Homecoming weekend.

"I heard you were back in my city," Darren said warmly, calling Mike almost as soon as his plane landed at Heathrow. "How about dinner on me again?"

They met the next evening. "How's Jen?" Darren asked. "Pregnancy's going okay?"

"Yeah," Mike said. "She's just beginning to show. A little morning sickness but not too bad."

Darren nodded a concerned look on his face. "How are you dealing with it?"

"I'm a lot better," Mike said. "Jim helped me think about it the right way. He told me it's like going to a fertility center. It doesn't matter who the sperm comes from, I'm still the father."

"Yeah, that's a good way to think about it mate," Darren agreed.

"So how're Jim and Stacy?" Mike asked.

"Mission accomplished," Darren said with a laugh. "They're off in Sidney for a year. They email me sometimes." He shrugged, his face suddenly melancholy. "I miss Stacy. Don't get me wrong, I'd never try to take her away from Jim. I don't love her, we don't have that kind of relationship. But it gets lonely sometimes."

"You don't have a girl friend?"

"I've had girl friends," Darren said. "But I like doing the bull thing, so those relationships don't last long." He laughed. "I know, you're gonna tell me to stop being a bull," he said smiling at Mike. "But that's like me telling you to stop being a cuck." He laughed. "No offense."

"That's okay," Mike said with a laugh back. "I've thought about Jen hooking up with Tom again – he's the father."

"You mean the biological father," Darren quickly corrected. "That dude's just the sperm bank. Don't forget that Mike, otherwise it'll screw up your head."

"Yeah ... thanks."

"As long as you keep that straight, you'll have a lot of fun," Darren said encouragingly. "A lot of husbands are really into that. After Stacy tested positive, she and Jim came over to my place and I fucked her. You should've seen the look on Jim's face. I've never seen anyone so turned on."

Mike nodded. "Another man fucked Jen on our wedding night," he admitted.

"Before you?" Darren asked.

"Yeah," Mike said. "Ricky ... her first lover."

"How many lovers has she had?"

"Three mostly," Mike said. "Ricky, Scott and Tom."

"I don't make that list?" Darren said with a laugh. "That's okay, I can tell Jen isn't into the big black cock thing. This Tom – what'd he say about Jen pregnant?"

"I don't think he knows yet," Mikes said.

Darren frowned. "Is he gonna make trouble when he finds out?"

"He got possessive with Jen at the end."

"Then why would you want Jen to hook up with him again?" Darren said. "That's playing with fire Mike."

"Yeah you're probably right ..." Mike said unconvincingly.

Darren studied his friend and grinned. "It's the risk that gets you hot," he said nodding. "I get it." He laughed. "Someday you have to tell me how you and Jen got together."

"It's a long story," Mike said smiling sheepishly.

"I bet," Darren said with another laugh.

"So your speech is this weekend?" Allie asked as she walked into Jen's office. She took a handful of M&Ms and flopped into the comfy chair across from Jen's desk.

"Yeah, are you going to the game?" Jen asked.

"Still thinking about it," Allie said with a shrug. "State College isn't my favorite place in the world." She found Penn State boring compared to the glitter and non-stop excitement of NYC.

"Yeah ..." Jen said looking gloomy over the prospect of going to a Penn State football game.

"Don't freak out Jen," Allie said knowing her best friend's melancholy wasn't about the relative quiet of State College compared to NYC. "It's only a football game."

Wanting to change the subject, Allie asked, "How's the pregnancy thing? You're not showing yet."

"These pants are a little tight," Jen said with a grimace. She was wearing slim pants, a tailored blouse and high heels. "I'm okay with it though, my body changing and all. My doctor says I can keep working out, to get back in shape faster after the baby comes."

"So ... you two are gonna keep playing your game?" Allie asked with an intrigued smile. "Vegas was outrageous even for us."

"It was kinda epic huh?" Jen said with a smile.

"So you ARE gonna keep playing?"

"Yeah, I think so," Jen said nodding. "Mike says he understands better now, a crush isn't love. So I don't think he'll get upset like before if I get attached to a guy for a little while." She smiled mischievously. "And it's fun."

"God Jen, I can't believe you two," Allie said her face part disbelief and part envy. "So who's your next boyfriend? That cute barista in Starbucks? I've seen you flirting with him."

"He's kinda young ... 19?" Jen said with a giggle. "He IS cute though."

"I told you we're turning into cougars," Allie said with a laugh.

"Not sure Joey would like this," Jen said putting her hands over her tummy.

"God you know his name?" Allie said with a delighted laugh. "You always get the really cute ones!"

Later Jen was in the break room making a decaf latte. She accidentally dropped the wooden stirrer and bent over to pick it up.

"Now that's a beautiful sight," Tom said behind her. The lacy T of her pink thong had risen above her low rise pants.

Jen stood up immediately and pulled her blouse down.

Tom grinned. "When'd you get a tat?"

"In Vegas," Jen said. "It's a henna though."

"It looks good on you," he said. "You oughta get a real one."

His comment reminded her of that time on the beach, when he'd fucked her on the sand under the stars. She realized he was remembering the same thing.
