Showing up
Rowan
+15 BONUS
I sit or the bench nervously as I wait for Ava. I know she’s going to be pissed, but I can’t help this intense need to be around her. This intense need to be there for her.
She’d refused to tell me the date for her next appointment, so I went ahead and got it myself. I know that makes me a fucking bastard because Lkeep pushing, but I am used to getting my way. And right now, what I want is to be by her side.
If I had my way, I would have gone and picked her up. Instead I decided to come here instead seeing as I’ve already gone against her wishes.
It’s been so long since I’ve been this nervous. The first and last time I was this nervous was when I had sex for the first time. I was thirteen and didn’t know exactly what the fuck I was doing. It had been terrible given I had blown my load within seconds, leaving the girl I was fucking unsatisfied.
Pushing those thoughts away, I focus on the door. I was a bit early. I knew I had to wait a while
before she arrives.
“Rowan? What are you doing here?” her voice pulls me from my thoughts.
I don’t know how long I’d been seated in that bench waiting for her. I’d been so focused that I had
missed her arrival.
I turn to face her and my breathe catches. She was so fucking beautiful. She didn’t even have to
try. How the hell had I never noticed this before? How the fuck did I think that she couldn’t hold a
candle to Emma?
Some might say it’s the pregnancy glow, but I fucking disagree. Emma did her make up every day.
She wouldn’t leave the house until she looked perfect.
Ava on the other hand didn’t have to try. I’ve seen her without make these past few weeks. With
dark circles under her eyes. Yet she never looked more perfect to me.
I clear my throat before answering. “I told you I’d be there for your every appointment”
I see a cloud pass over her face. She was pissed. Really fucking pissed. She was going to blow up
on me, but it honestly didn’t even bother me.
My eyes freely and casually run down her figure. She was wearing a figure hugging dress that not

After roaming her body, my eyes go back to her captivating brown ones. She opens her mouth and I know she’s about spew shit Telling me to leave. Before she can do that, I stand up, wrap my hand around her face, bring her body next to mine and kiss her forehead.
She freezes Her body locking as she’s stunned by my actions.
My lips linger on her skin for a little while. I know I should let her go, but this just felt so fucking right. It’s like she was always meant to be in my arms and she would have been if I hadn’t been so fucking foolish and stubborn.
I gently let her go. Her eyes were wide and her mouth dropped in shock.
“What the fuck Rowan?” she asks angrily when she recovers. “Why the hell did you do that?”
“Because I wanted to. So I did” I say with a shrug.
