Still There For Me

Friday is here and I’m getting ready in my room with Vero, getting some quality girl time in. Plus, she went to school to learn hair and beauty stuff, so she’s more than willing to get me ready.

“I never get to do this anymore, I miss this,” she sighed, curling another piece of my hair.

“You can come over anytime you want to,” I laughed, bouncing Ty on my lap. Kylie was over on Sidney and I’s bed playing with a couple of Barbie’s. Kylie just stared in awe at what Vero was doing and didn’t take her eyes off of her. “Look at her watching you.”

“Can I do her hair after?” she asked, knowing how excited Kylie would get.

“Yeah, yeah. She’d love that.”

“You’re next kiddo,” she pointed the curling wand at her. Her face lit up and she went back to playing. “So what exactly is this even for?”

“Mario is launching a new foundation and it’s basically a dinner thing to get everyone together and can socialize and talk about what is going to happen. It’s basically like a meeting but a chance to say thank you as well.”

“And you and Sidney are going because?”

“Moral support, and he always goes to Mario’s stuff. Hell, he lived with him for how many years? They’re super close. Plus I think Sidney is going to contribute to the cause so I don’t mind going. I’m just going to be in the background as usual.”

“That’s no fun. You should shine bright like the star you are,” she giggled.

“As long as you didn’t say ‘shine bright like a diamond’ cuz I would have slapped you,” I laughed.

“I was going to but at the same time I knew you’d put the baby down and beat me up,” she joked. She was all done with my hair and touched up my make up, then allowed Kylie to sit in the chair to get her hair “curled”. The wand wasn’t on, she was faking it to make her seem special. Sidney came in and thought it was real and snapped.

“What the heck are you doing to my daughter?”

“I’m pretty daddy,” she flipped her hair like a true diva. That’s my little girl.

“It’s not plugged in, cool it Cindy,” I responded, passing Ty over to him so I could use the washroom.

We finished up and said goodbye to the kids and made our way to the restaurant. I wasn’t nervous but I knew Sidney was. It was a laid back thing and it’s not like he would be speaking to the press or anything. Well, there’s always that possibility but I doubt it. It’s Mario’s event, not his. We dropped the car off at the front and he walked me in. It was packed, and I felt myself getting over whelmed.

I of course, got offered champaign as soon as we stepped foot into the room and tried not to chug it down. We shuffled through the crowd and made it to the bar. Of course we talked to everyone who approached us or Sidney knew, so it took a while. He ordered us a drink, and while waiting we ran into an old friend of his.

“Sidney?” a feminine voice called out. He turned around and a smile came across his face.

“Oh my God, hey! How’s it going?” he asked, hugging her in a long hug. It was too long if you ask me.

“I’m good, you?”

“I can’t complain. What are you doing here?” What? Still no introduction?

“Mario invited me because he figured I could find some new clients here, what about you?”

“Oh I’m just here for moral support,” he replied. I nudged his back, hoping he’d get the hint. I hope she didn’t notice the nasty look I was making. “This is my girlfriend Ashley, Ashley this is Alexia, an old friend of mine.”

“Nice to meet you,” I smiled, politely taking her hand and shaking it. She was tall, blonde, green eyes and big boobs. You could tell she was fit but her hair and boobs looked extremely fake. Her make up was decent and showed that she really was naturally pretty. And confidence oozed out of her. Sidney would definitely be attracted to her, as would any guy.

“You too,” she said fakely, eyeing me up and down. Clearly she hasn’t seen a normal girl before.

“You still looking for work?” he asked her.

“Yeah, I was actually employed for a while but everyone is home because of the lockout.”

“I’m sorry, what do you do?” I asked. Strip?

“I’m a personal trainer and a massage therapist. What do you do?”

“I take care of him and the kids.”

“Oh right, I heard that you just had another one, congrats,” she looked up at Sid, not even paying attention to me.

“Thank you, they are quite the handful.”

“I don’t know how you do it.” Seriously? Sidney, you don’t spend 100% of your time with them. Whatever, I’ll let her think that. The two of them were catching up and I felt a tap on my shoulder. Nathalie, thank God!

“You don’t look impressed,” she giggled. She gave me a bear hug, and I didn’t want to let go.

“Oh just blending in with the background. How’s it going?”

“Same as you. Who is Sid talking to?”

“Some Alexia broad.”

“I can tell by that tone you aren’t impressed. Don’t worry, I feel the same way about a lot of girls Mario talks to. They know he’s married but they still throw themselves at him. When are you two going to get married?”

“I have no clue. I’ve been waiting but nothing yet. I don’t think we will for a while, because of this stupid lockout.”

“I know. It’s not fun at all. One day girlie.”

“I keep telling myself that too.”

Sure enough they continued to talk for a while and I left him completely there so I could go socialize and actually get to talk to people. Seeing as I wasn’t getting involved in the conversation between them. I felt an arm wrap around my waist and it was Sidney. Just in time for speeches.

“Oh now you want to talk to me?” I said in a bitchy tone.

“I’m sorry. I was caught up in the conversation and couldn’t get out. You know how it is.”

“Yup,” I replied, not wanting him to be touching me.

Of course people came up to him all night and I just stood there, but at least they acknowledged me. It wasn’t going to be a late night for us, since we were there at 5 and it’s almost 9. When we got in the car things were a little tense.

“How’d you like it?” I asked him.

“It was fun. You?”

“It was okay.”

“Did you talk to anybody?”

“A couple of people. They were all wondering where you went.”

“What do you mean? We were together the entire time.”

“No we weren’t. I left you with Alexia to talk and catch up.”

“Oh. I didn’t even notice.”

“I thought you wouldn’t.”

“I just thought you went to the washroom or something and that’s where you came from when I found you during speeches.”

“Well it doesn’t matter now does it?” I looked down at my phone, trying to ignore him.

“You doing okay?”

“Yeah. Just not feeling well.”

“Why didn’t you tell me? I would’ve gone by myself.”

“That’s fine, I had a good time anyway and it was nice to get away from the kids.”

“I miss them when we go out though.”

“I do too. At least we know Ty will be up by the time we get home.” Sure enough we came home to a screaming baby and an extremely frustrated Flower. “Can’t deal with the pressure eh Flower?”

“How the hell do you guys do it?” he shook his head. He was laying on the couch with the dogs on his chest. Once Sidney took Ty he settled down and he took him with him to the chair.

“Lots and lots of alcohol,” Sidney joked.

“Yeah right! You won’t even have a beer in the off season!” I joked.

“I’ve seen Sid get crazy, it’s funny,” Flower joked.

“Try dealing with it when he comes home,” I teased.

“We actually have something to tell you guys though,” Vero said, sitting next to Flower. I was on the arm of Sidney’s favourite seat. “We’re pregnant.”

“Oh my God! Congratulations!” I jumped up, hugging V. We of course we crying and the boys just man shaked. I hugged Marc-Andre and Sid hugged Vero with Ty in his arms.

“You’re going to have a friend soon!” Sidney cooed to Ty, who clearly wasn’t aware of what was going on.

“Now I can have a mommy friend here!” I laughed, wiping my eyes. I’m so happy for them!

After we celebrated and they went home. Sidney went to his office and booked his schedule.

“I am clear for the rest of the month,” he jumped on the bed.

“What do you mean?”

“I have no plans for any charities or anything.”

“So does this mean that we can have some family time?” I begged.

“Yes it does! I was thinking we could even try and fix the house up since we have the time.”

“I’d like that. What rooms do you have in mind?”

“Ty’s room, since he’s in Kylie’s old crib and she’s in a kids bed in the same room. So obviously her bedroom as well. Then I was thinking we could maybe have a little peaceful room for us to go to if we need to relax, kind of like a little spa room.”

“Yeah, the kids rooms need to get done fast because I hate that he wakes her up at night. And I guess we could make a little spa. Right now it’s just a massage chair in a white room with extra shit in it.”

“Think we could put a Jacuzzi tub in there?”

“I don’t see why not.”

“Could we have sex in it?” he winked.

“I just want sex with you,” I laughed. We’ve barely had any sex since we’ve been able to after Ty was born and it’s killing me. I’m not breastfeeding and I’m dying to be touched.

“Think we could now?”

“You’re the one who never wants to!” I laughed.

“Well yeah! I need to keep my aggression for when I’m on the ice.”

“But your not on the ice so take your aggression out on me,” I winked, seductively kissing him. Maybe this can make him forget about earlier.

I know the way he fucked me I did.
