A small gasp left my lips as warm kisses  were placed on the inside of my thighs. The whirling in my stomach had my heart racing and body shaking with anticipation. I whimpered from the demanding hands that squeezed my thighs securing me into position. Looking down I watched the black hair weave as the kisses got closer to my core. My fingers ran through the thickness of the hair just as contact was made.

My breath caught in my throat as my body was being subjected to countless amounts of pleasure which had me moaning.

My eyes closed but when I rolled them open, Zak was hovering over me, his eyes roaming across my face looking for some kind of sign. I whined at his slowness. Holding his ribs, I pulled on him gently trying to hurry him up.

He smiled before filling my body  making me moan loudly before looking down at ourselves.

"You're so fucking beautiful like this.." He whispered.

With no coherent words I simply panted up at him before moving my hands on his side and encouraging him to move.

His hips moved into mine, leaving me to run my fingertips across the broadness of his back and down his arms.

I licked my lips as my eyes fell closed only for the movement to feel different, I opened my eyes to see Nick. His stomach muscles contracting as he took firm movements.

"Fuck Scarlett.."

I reached up to touch his face, his lips pulled into a strained smile as his body worked on mine.

"I promise I'll do right by you." He groaned.

My eyes blinked and suddenly I was back under Zak who's fingers were moving my hair from my face. His pupils dilated as he looked at me in awe.

As he buried his face into my neck, I wrapped my arms around his shoulders. Feeling his muscles pulling and relaxing with every movement he made. His body worked like a fine tuned orchestra, working together to bring such beauty and harmony.

My body quivered and my arms moved as the body grew smaller, the back tattoo was gone and a smaller but firm body was against mine. The smell was different, a smell I knew...

"You feel so good." Nick moaned squeezing my breasts.

I clamped my eyes shut, arching my back up when I felt the muscle again. The gliding of large hands on my soft skin, I knew Zak was here again.

"Lettie..." He whispered breathlessly into my ear.

~~~

I jolted awake to the sound of laughter, my eyes scanned the room wondering if I had been caught in a bit of a moment but when I looked around. All I found was Avari sat on the couch watching the TV at the other end of the room.

Yawning I rubbed my eyes and pushed myself up looking at her.

"Ava baby?"

Her eyes snapped to me as a smile spread across her face "Hi mommy."

"Morning sweetie."

"Morning, mommy I'm hungry but Holly was in the kitchen and I don't wanna go in there." She pouted.

Nodding, I rolled out the bed and headed out the room. I tugged the lose hair tie from my wrist and fixed my hair into a messy bun as I crossed the lounge and entered the kitchen.

I didn't care for Holly or her opinions as I opened the fridge and pulled out eggs, milk and some bacon. Going into the pantry I pulled out what I needed and closed it gently with my foot before grabbing a bowl.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" A voice asked.

Stifling a yawn I carried on until a manicured hand slammed down on the pack of bacon. I lazily looked up to see Jessica Rabbit. "What?" I asked.

"You can't walk around in... in that! Look at yourself!" She hissed.

Lifting a brow I looked at my choice of clothes before hiding my smirk at Zak's reaper top. "I got his boxers on too. Wanna moan about that?"

Her eyes glowed green, and for a split second I wondered if she was an alien.

"Get them off and get your own on! How dare you!" She spat.

"Your eyebrows are wonky." I replied making her face falter before the anger took hold again.

I pulled the bacon from under her hand and continued on with breakfast until Zak walked in.

"Morning ladies." He smiled.

I rolled my eyes as Holly gushed over him, she was concerned about me stealing him, when in fact I was more concerned about my bacon! Or Zak's bacon if you really want to split hairs.

"Playing nice?" He asked from behind me.

"I am always nice, it's her. And why is she wearing your clothes?"

"Because she needs stuff to sleep in? It's only a top?"

"She has your boxers on too!" She argued.

"You do?" Zak asked from behind me. I paused and looked over my shoulder with a piece of bacon between my fingers.

"You want me to take them off?" I asked lifting his shirt to the waistband.

"No! You thirsty bitch!" Holly snapped making me shrug.

"Make your mind up." I replied moving my eyes to Zak. I noticed his clothing choice and felt my throat restrict.

"Like my new shirt?" He asked smirking as I struggled to swallow the piece of bacon.

"Y-yeah. It's nice."

Good freakin' god!

It fitted him perfect! The broadness of his shoulders stood out and his biceps look one flex away from tearing the shirt completely.

"Just nice? Avari helped me pick it." He  added.

"Well she has good taste." I nodded turning around mentally scolding myself for being so weak. How could I keep up the façade when he dressed so damn good! My baby has impeccable taste!

"She can't get it from you... Where's her father anyway?" Holly asked making my hands still.

"Holly." Zak warned noticing.

"I still don't like the fact she is in your clothes Zak. It crosses the line.. Don't you think?" She asked.

"I said she could help herself. I've never stopped you, just give it a rest already." He replied.

Once I knew the subject was off Avari's father, I continued on making pancakes.

I pulled out four plates and prepared them. "You made me breakfast?" Zak asked coming over.

"Of course.." I replied moving two onto a tray for myself and Avari.

"That's yours and oh. This is Holly's." I replied putting a stick of celery on a plate. "Enjoy."

"Are you fucking kidding me?" She asked as I got out cutlery and two bottles of water.

"You wanna fork with that Hon?" I asked as she glared at me.

"What's your problem.. Bitch? Not getting any dick?"

I felt Zak's eyes look to me instantly as I smirked. "Oh you have no idea... But whilst we are on the subject of my problems. My problem is my daughter hiding in a bedroom too afraid to get herself some food because you were in here. My problem is your breaking her toy, and your presumption that a girl has to play with girl toys! If she wanted a 'boys toy' I'd buy it! If she wanted to wear Boys clothing, I'd let her because I believe in letting a child express their own individuality without prejudice, close minded comments."

Her face looked at me in distaste. Clearly she had no idea when it came to children. "Whatever she should be more of a girl."

I smiled "I don't give a flying shit what you think. Enjoy the celery."

Picking up the tray I carried it out the kitchen leaving her open mouthed.

Returning to the bedroom, I had my breakfast on the bed with Avari whilst she held Peanut on her lap.

What I hated about myself, was that despite Holly being bitch, there was plenty on Zak's plate for him to half which I'm sure he noticed too. Yes spite everything, I still made her breakfast because I'm not a completely evil bitch....

At least not yet.

***

I took the tray back to the kitchen after Avari finished, she had cleared her plate which was good news as today was the day.  I knew she'd need a good meal and she loved pancakes.

"You should be more nicer to me." Holly spoke standing at the kitchen door.

I scoffed placing the plates into the dishwasher. Normally I would have washed them by hand but this cast prevented me from doing that. Zak needs rubbed gloves.

"Really?" I asked uninterested.

"Yeah, considering I know your secret."

"What's that? That I don't go to church on a Sunday? Or that don't finish the tube of toothpaste before opening another?" I laughed.

"No, the secret regarding Avari's father."

My smile faltered. "I- I don't know what you mean."

She smirked stepping into the kitchen "Really? Are we really gonna go that route? We both know she's nothing like Nick. And you were a slut but don't think I don't know about you and Zak either.. She has his eyes."

I frowned "No she doesn't."

"Don't lie, his hair too."

"Zak had brown hair as a child, it didn't turn to black until high school, but of course you'd know that. Right?" I asked.

She took a step towards me "How's he gonna act when he finds out his baby mama is shacked up in his house? Keeping his daughter from him like she's a dirty secret."

My lip quivered "Ava is not Zak's. And she is not a dirty secret!" I hissed.

"Who's her daddy then?" She sneered.

I approached her keeping eye constant. "Don't open a box you can't close.. Never ended well for Pandora." I warned.

"Oh my god. It's Devin's." She laughed stepping back.

My attitude slipped as I looked to the door to make sure Zak wasn't there. "No, she isn-"

"She is. Holy fuck. That's why you're running around here acting all sweet. If she's not Nicks, it leaves Zak or Devin, cause we know you were a hoe back then. So who's the Baby daddy?"

I glared at her wishing her dye job was flames!

"I'll give you until the end of the day... You tell Devin and Zak? Or I will." She growled flicking her hair and storming away.

As she disappeared, I unclenched my fists, I wouldn't bend to her demands. I won't fall to her command, because she's got a long way to go before she can harm me or my baby. And if she wants a fight, I'll create a war.
