Being Mrs. Simmons (Book 2) ✔

Chapter 4-I often get what I want.

"Oh no " The room was spinning around me and it kept getting worse and worse. "Dominic you have to stop." I managed, throat full of bile. My husband's lips were at my collar bone and he was determined to get himself some in the bathroom of this night club.
If he didn't stop I was gonna vomit all over him though. I knew this was a bad idea. This is why I never drank liquor. "Stop" I said again and pushed him away.
"What?" Dominic had a confused look on his face but I didn't answer him as I hopped of the bathroom counter and ran to the stall.
The entire time I emptied out the contents of my stomach my husband stood behind me holding my hair. Needless to say everything was a blur after that.
Some celebration!

I groaned when I came awake the next morning. My head was pounding with the beeping of my alarm clock. I let out another groan as I sat up in the cold dark room. I was naked under the sheets. In that moment I seriously hoped I didn't sleep with my husband. Had he used a condom? I don't think he thinks I'm serious about this whole not having a baby thing.
I shook my head clear and got up from the bed and made my way to the shower. My head was pounding and my stomach felt like I had a virus. I needed some Advil and some food ASAP.
After waiting thirty minutes just standing in the shower I quickly washed up and got out to get dressed.
I chose a black pencil skirt, a peach blouse and my stilettos. If I let my hair dry it was gonna be a frizzy curly mess so I braided it to one side before slapping on some mascara and lipstick.
I still felt like total shit when I made my way to the kitchen where I heard Dominic conversing with Creed.
"Good morning." Creed said as they both looked up at me when I entered. I smiled over at him as Dominic slid a plate of food in front of me and some Advil. He was the best.
"Where is Harper?" I asked after taking the pills with my coffee and digging in.
"She went to get the kids from your Mother's."
I looked at Dominic like he was crazy. "Well you should have gotten them. The boys are a handful babe." I replied, getting up to refill my coffee cup.
"She insisted." Creed said.
The three if us made small talk while I finished my breakfast and coffee. I checked my watch and got up. 7:30. I had to go.
"I'll walk you out." Dominic said as I was grabbing my things and he followed me out into the driveway. I groaned again at how fucking bright it was and slipped my sunglasses on. The medicine still hadn't kicked in so my head was still aching.
"You look amazing today." He said and pulled my body close to his. Surely he wasn't referring to the bags under my eyes. "And don't think what I started was left undone last night." He added before bending down and capturing my lips with his. What the hell was that supposed to mean? I knew there was a reason I was buck ass naked this morning.
I waved it away, that was a problem I would have to deal with later. I had to go to work.

"You look amazing today." Hadn't I already heard that today? I looked up from my desk and Mr. King stood in my classroom.
I chose to ignore that little compliment, smiling over at him. "Good Morning Mr. King." Was my reply and he stepped further into the room.
"Please, Amelia, call me Elijah." Who did he think he was? I didn't know him well enough for us to be on first name basis. Not to mention he really needed to stop flirting with me.
"Call me Mrs. Simmons, Mr.King" I said and he frowned a little. Maybe if he said Mrs. as much as he said Amelia he would get it through his head that I'm married.
"Do you realize you have sun glasses on? In the building." Mr.King asked and I almost cursed out loud. I had totally forgotten about that but my headache was still going strong. This guy seriously needed to go away.
I stood up just then and took my sunglasses off. "I went out last night, with my husband and some friends. I have a little hangover. These lights are extremely fucking bright. If you needed to know that. Now is there something you need or want from me because I'm sure you have a job to go do elsewhere? " I said, not meaning to sound like a total bitch. He had a smirk on his face as he walked towards me. I couldn't help but notice how extremely seductive that look in his eyes was.
"Maybe I just want you, Amelia. I often get what I want." Was his reply when he stood right in front of me. Was he serious?
I laughed as I looked up at him and shook my head. "I'm married Elijah. I'm in love with my husband. We have children. You really need to stop flirting with me..." My words trailed off as my eyes followed his, which were not on me anymore. My hand was resting on his bicep.
I jerked my hand away and got another smirk from him.
"You should really watch your mouth. What would a student think if they heard you say that?" It took me a second to realize what he was talking about and I remembered that I had cursed just minutes ago.
"I will remember that, Mr.King." I said and sat back down in my chair to look over my lesson book. "If you wouldn't mind I have students coming any minute." And with that he left. I took one more deep breath and shook my head again.

I'd done an exceptional job at avoiding Mr. King all day. In the halls, at lunch. I could not be around that kind of company, because knowing me, Honest Amelia, I would run and tell my husband. No one would like that outcome.
I did however tell Harper about it when I got home later that day. Dominic and Creed had the children out by the pool.
"What a coincidence, that's exactly how you met Dominic. You have a knack for pulling in teachers." She was saying as I told her about my 'encounters' with Elijah. I couldn't help but laugh at her comment.
"Yea, you're telling me."
"It's not like you're having an office fling or anything just meaningless flirting." She shrugged. Of course, I should have none she would condone something like this.
My eyebrows shot up at her. "Not meaningless anything because he is the only one flirting. If he doesn't stop I'm just gonna have to..." My words trailed off as I frowned at Harper who's eyes were not on me. Oh no...
"Just gonna have to what?" Dominic's voice came from behind me. I closed my eyes and counted to five, taking deep breaths.
"That's my cue." Harper murmured before getting up and leaving the room. Fuck my life.
Dominic walked into view with Sean in his arms. Oh great now our other child could see us argue. Perfect.
"Well?"
"Elijah. He works at the school. He just a little to friendly and it makes me uncomfortable." I replied hoping my words were safe enough.
"I was worried about Mr. Bratton firing you again but I guess that's not the threat." He said, moving Sean into his other arm.
"Threat? Anything but that. Besides I told him to stop, several times." I was so nervous my hands were clamy. Not because I was afraid Dominic would be pissed at me. But because I didn't want him going to the school and whooping Elijah King's ass. Yea he was pissed.
"Well if he doesn't stop I'll talk to Mr. Bratton. If he still doesn't stop...well." In that moment he had threatened Elijah's life. I watched Dominic put our son down so he could come to me. "You're mine...got it?" He asked and leaned down for a kiss. My stomach fluttered at his words.
"Always." He stared down at me for a second and what he had said this morning came to mind.
"So what you said this morning about not leaving anything undone..."
Dominic chuckled at me. "I didnt."
"Did you use a condom?" I rose my eyebrow at him, seriously hoping he would say yes.
"You know I don't do that baby. You should know." He said, glancing down at Sean who was sitting on the floor playing with a toy.
"Well did you...?" I left that million dollar question hanging in the air.
"I don't know. Maybe. You weren't the only one drunk." He shrugged. Before I could say anything he left the room.
Why did men have to be so complicated?
