Stephanie walked into the kitchen with a bag in one hand and a starbucks cup in the other.

"Antonia I brought you tea and clothes since I figured the boys didn't have either one for you" She smiled and held out both of the things to me.

"Thanks Steph" I took everything from her with shaky hands.
"I'm gonna go shower" I mumbled. Well that didn't make much sense.

"Your hair is wet?" Stephanie giggled and scrunched her nose up.

"Pool" Mike threw out "Yeah, I threw her in the pool this morning, she wouldn't get her ass out of my bed." I made a mental note to thank him when we were alone.

"You can use mine, Jaime's girlfriend is in the one in the hall." Tony said. I got up and followed him into his bedroom.

"What are we going to do?" I panicked once he shut the door behind me.

"I don't know. Shit, I thought this was going to be easier" He rubbing his face with his hands and sat on the edge of his bed.

"I don't wanna act like I hate you" I frowned.

"I know Ni I dont either but I have to figure things out first. I have to go now, we hate each other remember" he pecked me on the lips before running out of his room. I took my second shower today and Mike drove me home after so that Stephanie and Tony could be together today.

"Mikey?" I said as my fingers played with the radio.

"Yeah shortcake?"

"Thanks for the pool thing"

"Sure thing. I'd do anything to see you two together again. All you do is make each other happy"

"Mikey?"

"Mhmm?" he made a right into my apartment complex and parked his car in front of my building.

I took a deep breath and let it out shakily before I spoke. I had to tell him why I left.

"I got pregnant Mikey. That's why I left. Well, that's why Tony left. Then I left because I was afraid to stay. I should have told you Mike, I'm so sorry" I felt tears well up in the corners of my eyes, my voice breaking at the last possible second. "I was so scared you guys wouldn't want anything to do with me anymore."

"Hey, no, come on now. We love you, okay? Just because Tony's our friend doesn't mean we would support him on what he did. I know what happened Nia, Tony told me. Well he didn't tell me but I figured it out. And I think the reason that Vic got so upset when he saw you was because he felt hurt that you didn't trust us enough to stay. Don't worry about it. Now let's go watch Big Fish and cry."

And that's what I loved about Mike. He could take a huge thing and process it down so he didn't make a big deal out of it. He would spare me all the explanations and embarrassment that came with the situation at hand. It wasn't like he ignored it or anything, he just knew how much questioning I could handle at a given time.

It had been a few weeks since Tony's party and currently my feet carried me down the steps in my apartment, heading towards my front door that someone had started to knock on a few seconds ago.

"I'm coming I'm coming chill out" I groaned as I pulled the door open. Tony leaned against the doorframe smiling. "You're going to be seen one day" I rolled my eyes and sat on the couch as he followed me into the apartment.

"Oh no, she's at the salon until seven thirty today" He smirked, laying ontop of me instead of the couch.

"Tony!" I yelled from underneath him "Your fat butt is gonna crush me!"

"This couch is lumpy" He said wiggling around on top of me still.

"Baaaaaaabe" I whined.

"Ni? Hi baby! Didn't see you down there!" He rolled over so his chest was against mine. "it's so nice out, what are you doing underneath me?"

"Well it is one of my favorite places to be" I laughed.

"Oh really now" he smirked. I knew the look on his face all too well.

"No Tony"

"Why nottttt?" he whined.

"The same reason as two days ago. This lasts a week Tone, not two days."

"That's dumb. It should only take one day to be like'hey you're not pregnant you can move on with your life now' don't you think?" he mumbled against my lips.

"You're dumb" I giggled.

"Do you love me?"

"What? Tony I-" I began.

"Do you love me just answer the question. "

"Of course Antonio." I smiled at the man laying ontop of me.

"Then I'll be as dumb as you want me to be. Just as long as you love me"

"As loooooong as you love meeee" I sang beneath him.

"You're ridiculous"

"You're heavy get up!" my arms pushed his body away from mine, sending him crashing to the floor and me into a hysterical fit of laughter.

"You're not going to get very far in life by beating up your hot famous man you know" Tony groaned on the ground.

"I'll be sure to remember that when I have one" I laughed stepping over him and heading into the kitchen. "Why are you even awake it's like nine in the morning?"

"I came to see you duh" Tony wrapped his arms around my waist as I made put sugar and honey in the cup of tea I had on the counter.

"Tone..." I shrugged him off.

"What?" His eyes looked hurt when I turned to face him.

"This is getting ridiculous. You're not even trying to work this out Tony!" I let out a frustrated yell.

"Do you know how hard this is? Trying to figure out who I want more?" He shouted back.

"Yeah, I do! In case you don't fucking remember. I didn't take a month to figure it out though! I knew it was you I wanted!"

"Oh shut the fuck up! You still don't know what you want!" Tony screamed and followed me into my bedroom where I pulled my outfit from all over my room.

My palm made contact with Tony's face almost as soon as the words passed his lips, leaving him shocked. I'd never slapped Tony in our lives.

"You did not just smack me" He fumed.

"I'm pretty sure I did." I said through clenched teeth.

"You're fucking insane"

"How about you don't ever tell me I don't know what I want. I've always known what I wanted. Yeah I've fucked Mike! But you know what, I'm sure you've fucked Stephanie but you don't see me bitching about it!" I pulled my pajama bottoms off and replaced them with my shorts. "You just like to have someone else on the side! You need your options Tony! One isn't enough for you is it!"

"I need my options!? How about you! When are you going to fuck Vic? It seems it's only fair he gets a turn since he's the only one who hasn't!"

"Get out" I said quietly.

"I'm gone! I don't even want to be here with you!" He started heading towards the front door of my apartment.

"You mean you don't even want me! Just like our baby!" The words came out of my mouth before I could even think. Tony stopped dead in his tracks.

"Is that really what you think?" He mumbled.

"What else am I supposed to think Antonio" The anger was still present in my voice.

"I want you to think that I love you Ni, nothing else" He shook his head, grabbed his keys off the kitchen island, and walked out of my front door.



"Antonia, do you trust me?" Tony said as he hovered over my naked body.

"Of course Tony" I said breathlessly.

Barely a second later he guided his way into me, earning a light moan from my throat. With each thrust he gave, he got a little rougher. When he was certain I would be fine he went fast, squeezing my bare hips tightly. My arms went around his back and my nails dug into his smooth skin.

"Ni..." He groaned quietly.

I leaned up and pressed my lips to his softly, switching positions in the process. Once I was ontop I ground my hips against his. I felt his hand smack my ass roughly while the other gave it a squeeze.

"Tone!" I moaned as his thrusts met me half way, doubling our pleasure.

He leaned up and covered my mouth with his to muffle the moans. Everyone was downstairs playing fifa and if I was too loud they would hear me. He moved us both again so he was on the top for the second time. Tony's pace got even quicker then before and I was getting closer to my orgasm. The knot in my stomach got tighter and tighter.

"Fuck! Oh my god Tony!" I screamed as I felt myself unwind. He gave a few more thrusts before laying ontop of me and kissing the side of my head lightly.

"I love you Antonia" He whispered into my ear.

"I love you too Antonio" I smiled at the ceiling and let my eyes flutter closed, falling alseep in Tony's arms.


I pressed my back against my front door, sliding to the ground as the tears spilled over my cheeks. We couldn't do it the first time, what made us think it would work out this time around?
