Taming His Heart

KYLE

I don’t think I could be happier. Pearson is the first to notice the difference in me. He corners me in the locker room. “What has got you so fucking chipper? The coach didn’t have to yell at you once.”

I grin, I have been doing it so much the last week that my face hurts a little. “I am going to marry Danny.”

He looks at me shocked. “Really. Wow. Well congrats. How did you manage that one?”

“I begged. And convinced. Plus I don’t think it hurt that her dad punched me in the face.” I laugh at the last part.

He laughs. “Why exactly did her dad punch you in the face?”

“Because he found out she is pregnant.”

He nods. “I was wondering when you would find out.”

Now it is my turn to look shocked. “You knew.”

He shrugs. “Bridget is like her best friend. She told her, who told me in confidence. You know bedroom talk shit. You can’t repeat that shit. Even if you really want to tell the jackass father.” He cocks an eyebrow at me, daring my ass to challenge it.

“It’s weird, when I found out, I wasn’t scared or even pissed. All I could think was getting back to her. If I was scared of anything it was losing her for good. I am even pleased to know that she is having my baby.” I smile again.

A voice behind Pearson rings out. “Danny is pregnant.”

We both turn towards the voice. “Peters. Didn’t know you still cared.” I scoff out.

He looks sad. “I thought there might be more time. You fucked up so bad. I still haven’t gotten her to talk to me since then.”

I feel bad for him but at the same time, I am the one that had to deal with her losing him as a friend. She was devastated to lose him. Not that I can see why. “She still won’t. If she ever talks to you again it will be as a friend. She is going to have my child and be my wife, so it’s time for you to move the fuck on.” I growl.

He holds up his hands. “I wouldn’t fuck with your family. I’m not going to try anything with Danny again. I swear it.”

“Better not.” I give him the stink eye. Then I get a thought. “Were you really into Courtney?”

“Yeah, I mean after the change. Not before. She was a bit of bitch before.”

I nod. I totally agree. “She’s going through a lot right now. She could use a friend.”

He nods. “I don’t think Danny wants me just showing up though.”

“I’ll have her out of the house tonight.” I wink as I walk away. Maybe he can be the guy for Courtney. He’s not really a bad guy. I just didn’t want him to take Danny from me.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
