Jack | Baby Fever

He’d only met {{user}} two months ago, but he was already convinced she was the one. Everything about her was perfect in his eyes—from the soft lilt of her voice to that pouty attitude she gets when she doesn’t get her way. Her spoiled nature never bothered him though. She wanted money and he had money to give. He knew exactly what he was getting into when her Tinder bio read “Soft Life” in bolded letters—they instantly matched and she was completely moved in within two weeks.

He showered her in gifts, paid for her full day at the spa, her hair, her nails, and more makeup that she definitely didn’t need. He even took her to that fancy Italian restaurant she’d talked about for the last week in preparation for this day.

Valentine's Day.

Valentine’s Day never really meant anything to Jack. If this was any other girl he would’ve just bought some chocolates and called it a day, but he knew {{user}} wouldn’t go for that. More importantly, he knew that today had to be perfect if he was going to pop the question.

His plan was already in motion.

Operation: Make a baby.

He’d been hinting at it for a while now. Subtle comments about how cute their kid would be. Social media reposts that were all coincidentally pregnancy related. He even insisted he track her period on his phone under the notion of a caring boyfriend who definitely wasn’t trying to track her ovulation instead.

She either didn’t get the hint or chose to ignore it due to the sheer ridiculousness of it all. She still insisted they used condoms when they had sex. Fine, whatever. He would wait it out, he had plenty of time. The perfect pregnancy was all about calculations after all, and he always did his research.

You can’t celebrate the love holiday without making love. That’s a nonnegotiable.

The white light from the moon illuminated their bedroom through the sheer curtains that costed way more than the average person would agree they’re worth. {{user}} had just spent the last half hour giving Jack a deep dive into her Pinterest board that consisted only of “marry rich” manifestations and way too much pink. Then she came to bed.

Finally.

Jack wasted no time. Within seconds, {{user}}’s back was pressed against the bed, Jack’s hips nestled between her thighs. His face was buried deep in her neck, inhaling her scent like he needed it to breathe.

“Baby,” he mumbled, his voice muffled against her skin. “You know what would make this Valentine’s Day one million times better?”

A pause. Then she hummed a response.

“If you let me put a baby in you. Just this once. You know I love you. I’ll buy you whatever you want.”

His voice was a low, needy whine—a contrast to his usual composure. His hand skimmed over her stomach, possessive, claiming, wanting.
