Jake's Touchdown

Chapter Eleven

He tightened his grip around me as I whispered to him, “Let me go lay down with your mom. I am exhausted after the game.” He nodded as he let me go as he whispered, “You were awesome today.”

I chuckled as I slipped my sneakers off and my shirt as I pulled the covers to lay next to her, the woman I am falling for quickly.

She is becoming my life.

Fuck how am I going to tell her that she is danger because I am falling for her and that she is moving in with me to protect her and Tristian.

I woke up the next morning as Jake is wrapped around me.

I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him when I leaned into him and kissed his lips.

He kissed me back as he moaned and I heard Tristian, “Gross.”

I chuckled as I looked at Tristian, “Aren’t you suppose to be asleep.” He shrugged his shoulders, “I got enough.”

Jake looked up at me as he lifted his hand to my face as he traced his finger line across my jawline, “We have to talk.”

I heard Tiffany chuckled, “You two can go down to the café and get something to eat.”

I sat up, “How long have you been sitting there.” She laughed, “You two looked so cute together, I just couldn’t wake you.”

I rolled my eyes as I got out of the bed, “Like that would have stopped you.”

She looked at Tristian as he shrugged his little shoulders.

“What do you mean, you moved my and Tristian’s things to your house.” I yelled at Jake for not talking to me first.

What the hell was he thinking.

He grabbed my arm, “I am sorry. I should have talked to you first, but I panic.” I threw my hands up, “Last time I am trusting Walter with my keys.”

He shook his head, “Someone came up to me and told me that there is someone out to hurt you. I just wanted to protect both of you.”

I sighed, as I sat down with my coffee, “You got to talk to me first before making a decision like that and more when it comes to decision on where my son lives.”

He nodded at me, “I know. I am sorry. I promise to talk to your first.”

I placed my hand on the scuff of his jawline, “I understand that you are protecting us. And I love that you are. But these things we need to talk before making a big move.”

She was pissed at me rightfully so.

It look like she is forgiving me for moving her before talking to her, “So, you will stay with me once Tristian gets released.”

She sighed, “Since it is out of protection, I don’t have much of a choice.” I smirked as she snapped at me, “Don’t get too happy. I am still mad at you.”

I chuckled as I leaned forward to her, “As long as you are safe. You can be mad at me all you want.” She leaned her lips to mine as I felt her heat.

She is making so hard for me not to take her right now.

Damn this has been the longest time it been since I gotten laid.

I been having a dry spell for the past three months but now I have this beautiful woman in front of me, I need to touch her.

She pulled her lips away from as she tilted her head, “Your mother is going to be stopping by later today.”

I groaned at her, “Seriously.” She smirked, “She been here every day since you left.” I shook my head as that didn’t surprise me.

We walked back to the room when the doctor ran over, “We found a match.”

I turned towards the doctor as he reached Jake and I, “We did.”

I hugged Jake as I looked at the doctor, “Who?” He tilted his head as he looked up at Jake, “He been right here.” I looked up as Jake’s eyes widened, “Are you telling me that I am a match?” He nodded as he smirked, “He is a prefect match.”

The doctor and Jake walked to the doctor’s office to go over the risks and recovery time if he agrees.

I ran to the room with Tiffany as she looked at me, “What is it?”

I smiled, “We found a match.” Tristian sat up, “We did. Does this mean that we will get to go home soon?”

I nodded, “Yes, buddy that means we will get to go home soon. But it does depending on the match if they decided to do it.”

Tiffany looked at me as she asked, “Do we know who?” I shrugged my shoulders as Jake stood behind me, “Yup. It is me.”

Tristian jumped up and down as he yelled, “That means I will have a piece of you with me.”

I went over the risks and told the doctor I wasn’t worry.

He said that I would need recover time for about four weeks. I called Walter on my way back to the room when I got him clear it with the team. Tristian frown as I looked at him, “What is buddy?”

He tilted his head, “But that means that you will miss your games.”

I walked over to him as smiled at him, “I may miss them, but you will get what you need. The doctor is going to talk to the owner and set it up that I can return at the end of the season or next depending how well I heal. Which I am active so that means my recovery time may be quicker than most.”

Sage looked up at me, “I can’t ask you to do this to your career.”

I tilted my head at her as I walked over to her, “You are not asking me to do it. I am doing it. I am a match, and he needs it.”

She sighed as she placed her arms around my neck, “Are you sure?” I nodded my head, “Walter said that he can make sure that I don’t lose my contract and have funds available for me to take care of my lifestyle.”

My phone rung as I looked down to see it is Walter when I looked at Sage and answered it, “Please tell me you have good news.”

He chuckled, “You have one special lady there. Not only is Mr. Bradford allowing you to take the time off, but full salary will be giving to you and there will be a raise when you returned when you can.”

I tilted my head to the ceiling as I teared up, “But?”

He chuckled, “But if you can’t return in an event if this backfires on your ass. Mr. Bradford had locked you in the current salary for the rest of your life as long as you stay with Sage.”

I lifted my eyebrow at Sage, “Are you serious? He said that?”

He chuckled, “Oh he was serious. You are bond to her for the rest of your life.” I chuckled as I placed my lips on Sage’s forehead, “Well if that is all that I have do I think I can do it.”

He chuckled, “I knew you would. Tell me when the date for the surgery is.” I nodded as a tear ran down my face, “I will.”

He hung up the phone as smirked at me, “It is done. I am getting the time off for surgery and recovery time. And if I can’t Mr. Bradford is going to keep me on the payroll for the rest my life as long as I stay with you.” She tilted her head, “Please don’t tell me that you taking it?”

I wiggled my eyes at her, “Baby, you are stuck with me for the rest of my life.”

She rolled her eyes as I laughed and pulled her for a kiss while Tristian is jumping around as Tiffany tries to get him to calm down.

I shook my head as I can’t believe that one, we have a donator, two, it is Jake, and three, that he is accepting Mr. Bradford offer.

I don’t want him to regret this if he can’t play again.

But he ensured me that he will be able to play again but it is a matter of when not if.

He called all his family members and friends to tell them the news. He left for practice to break it to the team which they was all happy that we have a donator and that he was the match for Tristian.

He is going to play this home game then they are going to do the surgery that Monday morning. I am going to try to make them wait until Wednesday to give Jake time to recover from his game.

This is all happening too quickly. I am falling for him.

The way he treats me and my son.

I never had this before.

I don’t know how to act or think.

I am so screwed.

I am in f*****g love this man.
