A Bradford’s Mother’s Day
Part I
“If you would just let me-”
“No,” came the immediate reply that left Haley with no choice but to pout as she sat there, staring wistfully at the patio doors that overlooked the backyard filled with Bradfords enjoying what appeared to be a very lovely barbecue.
Licking her lips nervously, Haley opened her mouth and-
“Stop trying to ruin Mother’s Day for me, woman!”
Thanksgiving Negotiations: Part III
Thanksgiving Negotiations
And So It Begins…. Part I
“God, I don’t think that I could eat another bite,” Cole said with a satisfied sigh and a grin that turned into a wince as he curled up into the fetal position that had Jason narrowing his eyes on his son.
“You’re pathetic,” Chloe mumbled, shaking her head in disgust as she closed the notebook that she’d been reading… Read More
The Letter
“Damn it,” Jason said as he roughly rubbed his hands down his face only to sigh heavily as he sat back in his chair and found himself looking at that letter.
Goddamn it…
Telling himself that he needed to get through the rest of the applications tonight, Jason focused back on the application in front of him and…couldn’t stop thinking about Mikey’s letter. He’d been on the approval committee since he was promoted to Head of the History Department and this was the first time in ten years that he’d wished that he’d turned down that damn promotion.
He didn’t want to… Read More
Excerpt from Misunderstood and Chapter 10 of the Pregnancy Chronicles
“Definitely a mistake,” Haley said, slowly exhaling as she closed her eyes and tightened her grip on the bathroom counter while she waited for what she was really hoping was just Braxton Hicks to finish.
When the pain finally stopped, she released a shuddering sigh, moved to stand up only to decide against it and continue staring at the bathroom floor. Jason was definitely going to kill her, she thought, reaching up to push her glasses back up her nose as she stood there, debating her options.
She could continue standing there, hunched over while she waited for the next contraction… Read More
Chapter 9: The Pregnancy Chronicles
Maybe she should take up a new hobby? Haley thought as she laid there, wondering why Buffy couldn’t give Spike a real chance.
She loved Spike.
There should be a Team Spike, came the next thought that had Haley nodding as she opened Facebook and sighed with disappointment when she didn’t find a group dedicated to her favorite Buffy the Vampire Slayer vampire. That led to her considering starting a group for Spike only to decide against it since it sounded like a lot of… Read More
Pregnancy Chronicles: Chapter 8
“Are you pouting?”
“No,” Haley mumbled, knowing that she was damn well pouting and not really caring.
There was a heavy sigh and then, Jason was kneeling on the floor next to the couch, the same couch that she was now medically ordered to spend her days on until the end of this pregnancy.
“This is for the best,” Jason said softly as though she didn’t already know that.
When she didn’t say anything, mostly because she preferred to pout at the moment, he gently ran his fingertips along her jaw as he said, “This will be over before you know it,” lying… Read More
Chapter 7 of The Pregnancy Chronicles
“You don’t look so good,” Cole said around a mouthful of pancake while Jason sat hunched over the table trying to find the will to live.
“I’m fine,” he mumbled against the cool kitchen table as he glared at the woman responsible.
“Leave your father alone,” Haley said with a sweet smile that had his eyes narrowing dangerously on the woman who hadn’t followed her own advice.
She’d…
God, he didn’t even want to think about the naughty things that she’d done to him all night. Every time she’d reached for him, he’d prayed that it was the last time, but it never… Read More
Chapter 6: The Pregnancy Chronicles
For a moment, Haley considered trying to wake Jason up again, but…
Since he’d growled the last time that she’d tried, she decided that she should probably let him sleep. Decision made, she moved to climb off the bed only to end up biting back a groan when Jason cracked one eye open so that he could glare at her.
“I have to use the bathroom,” she said, weakly gesturing towards the bathroom door as Jason’s gaze quickly flickered towards the bathroom before landing back on… Read More
