"Again, you never quite answered my question. Why didn't you tell me?" Daphne looked up into his eyes, knowing she shouldn't hide anything from him, she decided to tell him the truth.
"Honestly."
"Always." Mark gently touched her cheek.
"I was terrified that you were going to get mad and leave me." She shook her head. "I figured if I did the leaving it wouldn't hurt so badly."
"Well, now you know where I stand...and I'm not leaving." He said it so she would believe it. She grinned as he kept cleaning up. He had started to say something else but for Daphne stopped paying attention and stared off into space.
Mark finished the kitchen and cut off the fan above the stove. Only when she looked up she noticed that he was talking to her.
"-okay?" he asked throwing a towel over his shoulder.
"I'm sorry baby, what did you say?" He smiled at her wondering where her mind was.
"I asked you if your parents knew about the baby."
"My mother took me to get tested, my father threw a party when we got the results...I think they're okay with it." She smiled. "What time is it?" Looking at his watch, Mark replied, "11:30."
"Shit." She stared at the clock. "I told Mina I'd meet her for lunch."
"How is she?"
"Good but today is the day she finds out I'm pregnant."
"Have fun with that one. You know, I've been meaning to ask you why you moved out."
"I moved because I told my mom I needed to learn to support myself." She stood up and stretched. "Although I have a nice little trust fund, I needed to do things for myself."
"You're doing a fabulous job." He smiled at her. "Eating healthy, taking vitamins, getting regular exercise...now..." he gave her a wink and she laughed out loud.
"Yeah, you're my own private instructor." Daphne walked towards the bedroom, she was going to lay out her clothes for the day. She made her way into the bathroom to turn on the shower. Setting it at the right temperature, she switched from the sheet to a towel. Her hair was falling down her shoulders and she tied it up quickly. The room was filled with steam and the scent of vanilla. Mark could smell it in the kitchen and he became rock hard. He knew what was going on in the bathroom. He was standing in the steamy bathroom in less than a minute. His shirt was off and his pants were next. Daphne wasn't even in the shower yet and she looked at the raging erection he was sporting. She cocked her eyebrow simultaneously letting the towel drop from her body. Mark kicked his pants off and strolled towards her. Before he could enter the shower with her she stopped him.
"You have to wait." She entered the shower. She kept the door open, then took her pink mesh sponge and dripped a little shower gel on it. The suds started to roll down her arm and she put the sponge to her body. Mark stood on the outside of the open shower door and watched as her body was covered in suds. She started by tilting her head back, squeezing the sponge so soapy water hit her throat and trailed down her breasts to the apex of her thighs. It looked so erotic. The white suds against her caramel skin turned him on to no end. She slowly circled each breast with the sponge making soft little mewling noises as she did it. He gripped his cock with his right hand. Daphne pushed the sponge a little lower down her body until she came to the juncture between her thighs. She stopped momentarily making sure Mark was watching her, then, slowly and deliberately she pushed the sponge between her thighs and let out a soft moan. Mark couldn't stand it anymore, with that last move he had both hands on his cock, and the moan sent him over. He rushed into the shower closing the door behind him. Knocking the sponge out of her hand he pushed her up against the wall, grabbed her ass cheeks and wrapped her legs around his waist. He watched as the water pooled in between their bodies then seep down the sides of their legs. Daphne pulled the clamp from her hair releasing the curls that covered her face, shoulders and back. Mark reached up to pull a handful of hair back at the same time he entered her warm body. She clawed at his back, kicking the shower wall on accident.
"Ouch." She said through a giggle.
"Foot okay?" he asked.
"Yeah, please fuck me!" she clawed at his back then kissed him deeply as he pulled out and pushed back in. He wanted to take her hard, but didn't want to hurt her. He held onto her hips in order to prevent himself from plunging any deeper. Daphne managed to raise her legs higher and that caused Mark to bottom out in her sweet pussy.
"Oh fuck." Mark moaned into her neck.
"I want to feel you everywhere, baby fill me up." Daphne whimpered and felt a coil tightening in her belly.
"Your pussy feels so good...so hot...wrapped around me...oh God!" Mark kept pushing deeper and deeper into her.
"Mark, I'm very close...your cock...I'm going to cum...cum with me baby!" Daphne arched her back and felt her pussy start the first spasms of her climax. Mark passionately fucked her through both of their orgasms. When the tremors subsided Mark released Daphne and let her feet touch the shower floor. They washed each others bodies and decided it was time to get dressed.

"Hey girl, I'm over here." Mina waved towards Daphne. Daphne decided to meet Mina at Justine's, a small café in the center of town. Mina and Daphne ate there frequently. Daphne sat her bag on the floor as she sat down.
"Hey Mina, how are you?"
"Um, I need to ask you that question...I haven't seen hide nor hair of you in almost two months!" Daphne sat back in her chair placing her hands on the table.
"Sorry Mina, there's just been some stuff going on." The waiter came to take their drink orders.
"Like?" Mina sat back in her chair with a not so friendly look no her face.
"Well, I told you about dinner with Marks parents, right?"
"Yes."
"Well, I found out he wanted to marry me."
"Wait." She sat forward. "He proposed to you...what did you say?" The waiter came back with their drinks. Daphne drank water, while Mina sipped from her martini.
"I didn't give him an answer." Mina grabbed her hand and looked at the ring.
"This doesn't look like an unanswered question to me..." Mina's southern inflection was showing. "My Gawd it's beautiful!"
"I just recently gave him an answer...because he found out that uh..."
"Uh...what?" Mina another sip. "What did you do Daph?"
"Mina...I'm pregnant." Daphne whispered. Mina damned nearly fell out of her chair trying to stand up. Both hands were on her hips when she replied.
"Daphne Marie Landry, what the hell happened to usin' a condom?" Daphne pulled her irate friend back to her chair.
"FYI, did use them...on the night at his parents, we didn't." Daphne looked around at all the glares they were getting.
"Why the fuck not?"
"It just happened and neither of us really mentioned it...you know, heat of the moment kind of stuff."
"If you weren't pregnant right now I'd throw my shoe at you..." Mina crossed her arms.
