“I’m selfish?” Julian pointed to himself, “Well, what about you, Miss ‘I can’t make up my mind’? Miss ‘Oh, Tc and Julian are fighting over me’,” Julian got up in her face as he tried to mimic her as best as he could.

Eve raised her hand and slapped him across the face and then turned and ran out of the weight room.

“Oh, yeah, that’s right, Eve! Run! Run like you always do!” he heard the front door slam, “Run like you always do…away from me,” he whispered and then picked up a barbell and threw it across the room.

Judy arrived an hour later.

“You know, honey,” she laughed, “It must’ve been some kind of prank,” she shrugged, “No one needed me in the ER.”

Julian smiled briefly and thought about what Judy had just said. A prank? Right after Judy left, Eve came. He closed his eyes and mentally shook his head. Eve had been the one that paged Judy, so he’d be alone when she came in and snuck up on him.

That night Judy and Julian went to bed, but Julian suddenly woke up to a feeling that just wasn’t going away.

“Eve?!” he hissed.

Eve was crouching beside the bed, massaging Julian’s manhood and smiling at him.

“I’m ba-a-cckk,” she smiled as her hand came out from inside his boxers.

Her fingers then walked up his abdomen and up his chest.

“Eve, what are you doing here?” he gritted his teeth, as he peeked over at Judy, who was sound asleep.

“Oh, I think you know what I’m doing here,” she stood and then laid on top of him.

“Eve, please!” Julian whispered.

“Okay,” she smiled before she captured his lips with hers.

Her tongue was the one to make the first move when she separated his lips and met his willing and eager tongue.

His fingers glided through her hair and down her back, but then stopped.

“Eve, no, no, we can’t,” he pushed her shoulders so her face would lift off of his.

“Are you sure?” she licked his upper lip, and then kissed his bottom lip, “Come with me, Julian,” she whispered as she stood, “Come with me…”

Julian sat up softly and quietly and then took a second glance at Judy. She was still asleep with her back to him. He’d been aching for Eve ever since she left him that evening…ever since she left him years ago. Julian took her hand and Eve led him downstairs. Just as they stepped off the last step, Julian pulled on Eve’s hand and yanked her back into his arms. He backed her up against the door and placed his hands on her breasts. As he kissed her, his hands pushed her breasts in an up and downward motion.

“Eve,” he breathed heavily, “I need you,” his hand moved to the knob on the door and turned it.

He led Eve into the weight room and shut the door behind him. Julian then backed Eve back onto the bench press. He slipped off his boxers and straddled the bench. Eve stretched out her arms straight up and Julian reached for her nightgown and lifted it over her head and threw it to the side.

“I love you, Julian! I’ve always loved you!”

Overjoyed at hearing those words come from the woman he loved, Julian gripped Eve behind her knees and tugged her onto him. Eve cried out as she felt Julian again for the first time in two years. He began thrusting at a fast and frenzy pace and took delight in the sound of Eve’s moaning. Eve’s hands soon found their way to the back of his hair as Julian pressed kisses up Eve’s body until his lips found her breasts.

“Yes, Julian, yes,” Eve’s fingers scraped along his back as she brought him down onto her.

Julian’s pace then slowed, as he buried himself in Eve, stayed there still, and then withdrew slowly, and then did it all over again.

Her arms wrapped around his neck and when he sat up, Eve came up with him and was now sitting in his lap. The two stayed still, and stared into each other’s eyes as they tried to catch their breaths.

“You know I love you, right?” he asked as his lips nibbled on hers.

Eve simply nodded as she began moving her hips. Her tongue darted out and Julian caught it between his lips and suckled it, and then the two got lost in each other’s kisses once more.

Eve hugged Julian to her and rested her chin on his shoulder as Julian planted kisses on hers.

“Mmmm, oh yes…yes,” she moaned out as she kept moving upon him.

“Julian, I heard some racket and wondered if…” Judy opened the door and found Eve and Julian in each other’s arms…naked! “Oh my God…” tears made their way down her cheeks.

Julian soon pushed Eve out of his arms and off of him and turned around to go after Judy, who had run out, grabbed her keys, and left in her car.

“Julian, where are you going?” she grabbed his arm as he walked passed her after he came back from upstairs.

“I have to go after her, Eve…I lov…” he stopped himself.

“You love her?”

“I have to go, Eve…I have to go,” he ignored her question and darted out the door.

Julian drove around to what seemed like forever when he spotted her car. He parked his right behind hers and stepped out and began walking around searching for her. Judy was sitting in the sand and was looking out into the water as she hugged her knees. From behind, Julian could tell she was shivering. He didn’t know if it had been because of the cool sea breeze, or if she was crying. He took off his light jacket and placed it over her shoulders and wrapped it around her. She looked up. Her eyes were now bloodshot from crying so much.

“I’m sorry, Judy…I’m so sorry,” he knelt beside her and kissed the side of her head.

She began breathing hard. Judy tried to fight back the tears, but she couldn’t; they came falling down.

“Judy, please don’t cry,” he pulled her into his arms and hugged her.

“Julian, I’m…I’m,” she turned away from him, “I’m pregnant,” she looked down.

Julian was caught off guard. He didn’t know what to say; he didn’t know what to do.

“You’re pregnant?”

“Yes, I’m sorry…” she stood and walked towards the shore and waded in the water.

Julian followed and turned her around to him.

“You’re sorry? For what?” he searched her eyes.

“For turning you away from me. If I hadn’t taken so many hours at the hospital…if I…”

“No! I’m sorry; I should have never betrayed you,” Julian shook his head, “Please forgive me, please? Judy, look at me,” he raised her chin, “I love you,” he kissed her, “I love you and our baby,” he smiled.

“No,” she shook her head and pushed him away from her, “No, you can’t love me,” she turned her back to him.

“Judy, honey, I do love you,” Julian turned her back to him, “What I did tonight was a mistake…a mistake that will never happen again! I promise,” he looked her straight in the eye.

“I’m not talking about that, Julian…”

“Then, what?”

“We’re not married,” she began crying again, “We were never married. I’m sorry, I lied to you, and I’ll understand if you don’t want to be with me anymore, but please, please don’t take my baby away from me,” she begged him.

“Take your baby? Judy, I know that we were never married; I never had amnesia.”

She gasped in disbelief.

“I just didn’t want to come back to my life here in Harmony, and then I…” he paused, “I fell in love with you. I want you, Judy,” he brought her close to him, “I want and need you and our baby,” he smiled and hugged her.

Eve left Julian’s home and walked across the street to hers. She had totally forgotten the little note she left Tc, and now he was sitting on the couch waiting for her.

“Tc, what are you doing u…” she looked to his hands, which had the letter in it.

“Why, Eve…where were you just now?” he said in a sing-song voice, “Oh, wait, I know,” Tc smiled, “According to your short little note,” he looked down to the letter, “You were across the street making love to your husband.”

Eve gasped in panic, but then she shook it off.

“Yeah, what of it,” she replied snidely and walked up the stairs, leaving Tc alone in the dark on the couch.
