An undeserved second chance Accident
At the touch of Ryan’s lips against hers, Becca felt as though her body had been charged with electricity. She had forgotten how succulent his lips were and how much of a good kisser he was, and now, she couldn’t stop kissing him. She knew that she should stop, that any of the kids could wander in at that very moment, but she could not for the life of her bring herself to stop him, not even when his hands left her face and trailed down to her neck and beyond.Ryan moaned into her mouth and changed angle, kissing her even more thoroughly, until Becca was sure that she would explode. She ran her hands over his muscled back, enjoying the hardness of his body underneath his shirt and reveling in the feeling of his warmth. They must have remained there just kissing and touching each other for ten minutes or more when the sound of excited giggles caused both of them to fly apart as though they were kids whose hands had been caught in the candy jar. She was backing the door, so she could not
An undeserved second chance Aftermath
The door was ajar when Tracy got there, so she simply pushed it open and stepped inside the room. The kids paused their conversation when she entered, and for a second, she just stood there staring at them and feeling incredibly stupid as they stared back at her. What on earth was she doing coming to confront little kids about why they were talking about her relationship? Still, she was already here, so she might as well say her piece.“Listen here, Emma. I know that you want your mom and dad to get back together, but honey, it’s not gonna happen, so you better get that into your head and let things be.” Tracy told Emma, trying to be as nice as possible.“They love each other and we’re going to be one big, happy family,” Emma replied stubbornly. The other two kids remained silent.“Oh, really? And whatever gave you that idea?”“Well … well, I see the way he looks at her. Also, I saw them kissing each other. Taylor and I did. They kissed for a long time.” Emma finished triumphantly.“A
An undeserved second chance Putting him in his place
Becca found Tracy hovering at the entrance to the hospital, looking nothing like the impeccably groomed woman that she usually was. Immediately the woman sighted Becca, she scurried over to her side and gripped her hands tightly, her pretty face streaked with tears, and spoke before Becca could. “I know that you must hate me, Becca. Hell, I hate myself too and I would gladly trade places with Emma if it were possible. I know you probably don’t believe me, but I swear that it was a mistake. I didn’t mean for this to happen.” Tracy said, sounding very sincere, but Becca was not in the mood to listen to anything until she saw her child.“Let go of me. I want to go see her. I’ve had the most anxious wait of my life trying to get here.”“Oh, sorry. Of course. I hear that she’s going to be okay.” Tracy said in a small voice, letting go of Becca’s hands as though they had suddenly caught fire.“Yeah. Ryan said so. Better hope it’s true, otherwise, you’re going to be very sorry.” Becca repl
An undeserved second chance Compromise
“To my utter shame, I cannot dispute the fact that I did indeed kiss you back, but the thing is that I got carried away by your story and I felt sorry for you. You can rest assured that it would not happen again. So please, keep your hands and lips to yourself from now henceforth.” Becca informed Ryan, sounding very convincing even to herself.“Ouch. There’s a first time for everything, I guess. I never thought the day would come when a woman would tell me that she only kissed me back because she felt sorry for me, but here we are.” Ryan said.“You must think the world of yourself,” Becca said in irritation, not doubting his words in the slightest. He was a hot man, and a very rich one at that. There was no doubt that there were droves of women who would gladly kiss him and even jump into bed with him given the slightest opportunity. She was not going to be one of them, however.“Actually, I don’t. I like to think that I’m a humble enough man. But it’s not a problem. I understand that
An undeserved second chance Startling news
Ryan and Tracy walked in tense silence to the hospital’s parking lot, where her car was parked. Although she had stopped crying earlier, she was beginning to sniffle once again, looking very small all of a sudden. Ryan felt a little sorry for her. Tracy was a good person, and she had gone out of her way to get the kids to like her, but Emma could be quite stubborn, and she had thwarted all her efforts. Still, getting wasted around the kids when she was supposed to be in charge of them was inexcusable.“I’m really sorry, Ryan. I swear I didn’t mean for this to happen. You must think that I’m a monster.” She began, holding onto his arm and staring into his face as though to convince him of her innocence.“No, I don’t. Mistakes happen, and I know you will not intentionally hurt Emma.”“Oh, thank God. I was so scared that you would think that I had done that to her on purpose. So you’re not breaking up with me?” She asked hopefully.“Why? Do you wanna break up?”“Of course not! I just thou
An undeserved second chance Bad news
The events of the day had drained Tracy out, so all that she was in the mood for as soon as she got home was a very hot bath and then bed. She ran the bath to be as hot as she could stand it and then got in to soak until the water got lukewarm. Ryan would most likely not come back until morning, but she could not blame him. As a matter of fact, she was surprised that things had gone as well as they did this night. Everyone agreed that what had happened was a mistake, and indeed, it was. Getting out of the bathtub, she wrapped herself in a clean towel and headed into the room that she shared with Ryan to see that her phone was vibrating. Somehow, she had put the phone in silent mode without realizing it. Wondering who the hell could be calling her by this time of the day, she was almost tempted to ignore the call. It was past four in the morning, after all. However, she reasoned that it might be Ryan, so she hurried to the nightstand where she had placed the phone and picked it up, on
An undeserved second chance Seeking advice
By the time Ryan woke up that evening, Tracy was not around, much to his relief. He freshened up and headed for the hospital, where Sandra was urging Becca to go home to rest while she stayed with Emma.“Aha, Ryan. There you are. Please convince this woman that she has to go get some sleep before she drops dead from fatigue. She can barely keep her eyes open.” Sandra said to Ryan as soon as they noticed him standing by the door.“I’m not that tired,” Becca said, immediately giving a loud, wide yawn that portrayed her to be the world’s biggest liar.“That yawn says otherwise. You can barely keep your eyes open, Becca. Come, I’ll drive you home so you can catch some sleep, freshen up and come back later. Or don’t you trust Sandra and me to stay with Emma?”“Of course, I do. Fine, fine. I’ll go home and get some rest for a while.” She conceded at last and got up to give a sleeping Emma a kiss. Ryan entered the room and placed the huge yellow teddy bear that he had bought beside Emma on t

“Don’t worry. Keep eating your food. I’ll answer it. Maybe it’s Dan.” Ryan told Becca, getting up and going to answer the door. A dark-haired, handsome-looking man whom Ryan had never seen before was standing there when he opened it.“Uh … Hello? I’m looking for Becca.” The man said, sizing Ryan up and down, the look on his face clearly stating that he did not like what he saw.“Who should I say is looking for her?” Ryan asked, and the guy opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, Becca appeared, beaming as she walked up to Ryan’s side.“Trevor!” She exclaimed.“Ah, Becca. Thank God! I was so worried. I’m sorry, but I came as soon as I could. How is Emma doing?”“She’s getting better, considering the circumstances.”“Hmm, so this is Trevor.” Ryan thought to himself, observing quietly as Becca took Trevor’s arms and latched onto it as though it was the only solid thing that she could find as she was drowning in a very turbulent sea. Trevor looked pleased with the attention he was
