Taylor's POV
15Please respect copyright.PENANAfft6U9vaua
"My darling" Claire exclaims waltzing through the door in her trench and hugging me dearly, standing back she eyes the growing bump and smiles as I laugh and blush. I catch eyes with Jay over her shoulder, the broad grin on his face and an expression of pride. It's a work of a miracle that I managed to wash up and do my hair and makeup whilst Henry had been napping earlier. And further that I was able to change into the new dress that I purchased earlier from the mall, not many new moms can say that they picked up teething supplies and a Chanel dress in one outing. It was a splurge, but Jay is never concerned by money, Claire compliments me on the dress and smiles avidly. It turns out that I'm very much fitting into my new lifestyle driving my Mercedes around town and buying fancy designer items for myself. It's something that concerns me; both how quickly I have come to terms with throwing money away. And further that I am not adding to our financial situation and yet I am spending the money.

"You've popped" Claire smiles and I nod.

"Yes bump has grown, here I have a scan picture" I gush showing his mother. I fasten the bow on my gown and stand back watching her swoon over the small baby in my womb. Jay's hand brushes my back as he kisses my cheek and peers over my shoulder to take in the picture.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAwkhZeK64f9
"This one looks like a girl" she smiles and I nod looking up at Jay.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAWapBBAnTUu
"We cannot be sure yet" I say as he nods proceeding to ask whether I would like to do a gender reveal. We hadn't found out the sex of our first baby. Preferring to keep it a surprise.

"It's something I'm open to this time around" I explain and he nods stroking my hair back as Claire hands him the picture before walking over to the bassinet where Henry lays sleeping after his eventful day at the beach and his afternoon of baby TV. His blonde hair swirling over his forehead as he sleeps with his dummy in his mouth.

"What a beautiful boy, Jay he's the image of you when you were a baby" she smiles looking down at Henry as Jay rolls his eyes.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA1oRFpLMjMx
"He is teething" I begin. Softly as she looks up. I settle on giving her a de-brief on Henry and his current situation before she babysits. Jay ogles the baby scan picture before holding onto my waist.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAZb8KTyeaVh
"He's been fine today with cold dummies and teethers. However I have given him some pain relief before his nap. And a whole feed, he's in his pjs already oh and..." I begin as she looks at me softly and Jay proceeds to go and get ready, placing his briefcase on the table before he heads upstairs.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAcJBOniQYo3
"He can have one of the bottles when he wakes up. And more teething gel if necessary" I add and she smiles warmly.
15Please respect copyright.PENANARRvohbgmAb
"Wonderful" Claire says stroking my arm softly as I gaze down at Henry in his sleep suit. Jay steps out of the hall having changed into a pair of smart navy chinos and a white button up shirt. Eyeing his slicked back hair I smile reminding myself of our phone call this morning and blushing.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAhkyJ2NvhWZ
"Now go and don't worry about me and this little bundle of joy" Claire smiles putting her feet up on the couch and tuning into the flatscreen to watch a romantic comedy of some kind.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAnBDhaZdXIT
"I've left some food, I made a whole batch cook of ravioli please help yourself" I tell her as she shakes her head laughing.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA92DE1n16Vw
"Taylor you're amazing" she sighs as Jay nods agreeably.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAm5BzkGiUlD
"Thanks mom" Jay laughs as he grasps the keys and I follow him out to the hall wondering what car we will be driving around in. It's wild that we have that choice.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAtqafn9eZxv
Penthouses that are several storeys high require you to use the elevator whenever you wish to leave. Situated out of the main home and down a highly decorated hall is our elevator, for the sole use of our house. It leads to a private car port which contains all of the vehicles. Jay presses the call button and the doors open up in one swift motion, he motions for me to step into the large carpeted elevator first before he follows me in. His eyes watch me as he presses the silver button for the car park.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAF1wWZa8zZ8
The elevator lulls and begins to descend almost instantly his eyes lock onto me and I smile. Wrapping me up in his embrace he eyes the dress and grins.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAgszey85QI3
"It's beautiful" he whispers in my ear as I sigh, his hands play with my hair as he presses up against me in the lift. His cologne strong as he kisses my ear.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA9JyY6mlEsU
"I need you" he whispers as the elevator dings through the levels to the parking lot.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA9SgOG69jy7
"Right now in the elevator" I blush as he undoes his zip and smiles. During our antics we end up travelling up and down twice in the elevator from our home and to the parking garage before either of us realise the door has opened and closed again. Fortunately it's our own private elevator and so we do as we please in it without interruption.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAFgHonScR5B
"That was rather impulsive" I giggle as he presses the button once more for the underground parking and the lift lowers for a final time to the car port. He blushes turning to face me and kissing my lips.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAnbxhnl3UuK
"I missed you" he says simply as I giggle.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAyF0HAbb0cZ
"I missed you the entire day" I manage between kisses as he watches me intently.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAWpXerUFVb1
"Where are we going for dinner?" I ask him and he smiles, his eyes illuminating before me.
15Please respect copyright.PENANASAkZolxhVQ
"It's a fancy one" he smirks and I roll my eyes.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA0tcKK2cxyb
"You'll love it" he whispers as the doors open and he takes my hand leading me safely into the car parking lot. Pressing the button on the key he looks around at the many cars for the lights to flicker on one of them.
15Please respect copyright.PENANACoWL2adol6
"You didn't even pick a car!?" I laugh as he scoffs.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAvx9H1YkfdC
"Jay Gilbert Scott that is a sign that you have too many cars and indeed a spending problem" I laugh out loud as he walks us over to a white Ferrari.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAMp3YGatO7j
"Car roulette" he laughs looking at the doors open up like a spaceship. I climb into the beige upholstered seats and sit back as he practically straps me in.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAb2RxvS3Iaf
"You are completely correct, I do like buying cars." He giggles before walking around to the drivers side. The white steering wheel is a nice touch, however despite the absolute luxury I find myself watching him start up the car and thinking about all of the times we spent at university together when we wouldn't even dream about riding around in luxury cars. Or certainly it wasn't something I had on my list. I glance down at my wedding rings thinking about the time he rescued me stranded in the snow with Ross who had fallen off his bike. How he used to be, and how this aspect to him spending lots of money has always been there. How I ignored much of it whilst we were falling in love.
15Please respect copyright.PENANADfwl3NRPbe
"You okay" he whispers over to me as he reverses the car out and turns us around to the entrance. The Ferrari lets out a high pitched screech as he turns it and revs the engine. As if it wants to eat up the road, the car lurches to the gate.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAASLAeKIKzz
"Yes I didn't realise how low to the ground Ferrari's were" I say softly and he nods indicating out of our drive and heading toward the glittering lights of town. The many skyscrapers all set alight like beacons.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAVxs3CL4jXX
"Are you comfortable Taylor in your Chanel gown seated in our Ferrari" he chuckles and I smile briefly at him, the glee on his face as he lowers the window slightly and drives with his hand rested on the side of the door.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAhLiGPbum7h
"Jay" I say to him quietly before looking out at the palms, the ocean in the distance. I rest my eyes on my elaborate matching Chanel clutch bag holding my lipstick and my phone.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAKq9ocozXpz
"Mom amour" he says slowly, briefly watching me.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA2sq7CkG2Y0
"You know that without any of this..." I begin slowly and he shakes his head guessing what I had been about to bring up. The wealth that is endless doesn't come close to the love and intimacy we share.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAJElYCjZad2
"Please Taylor you're married to a CEO. I'm going to want to cruise you around in Ferrari's" he laughs as I look down into my lap.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA9ipaP7z90m
"That's not my point" I say as he balks slightly watching me, before rubbing my waist and the little baby bump, I'm gaining weight quickly. I had imagined whipping myself back into shape before falling pregnant again. However the continuous and natural gain of weight straight after my first birth, due to being pregnant again sometimes makes me wonder whether I'll ever be small and dainty again.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAuGzmzqVceX
"What's wrong" he whispers the glint of light removed from his eyes.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAI0MXtCDada
"Nothing is wrong, I just don't want you to think that you need to do this" I say sharply as he slows the car down slightly. A heave from his chest which tells me underneath the excitement hides his stress and worry.
15Please respect copyright.PENANApKXCn5HtvU
"Do I not make you happy?" He asks me quietly.
15Please respect copyright.PENANABn4JXau1eH
"Are you serious that's my whole point!" I object. My hormones have been making an appearance in the form of getting worked up over relatively small things. Small things like Ferrari's and husbands that feel like they need fast cars.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA7uU1DWIkdQ
"I don't follow, how could this be a problem? I love you and I love being here with you in our life. So what I'm a CEO and I have money. You were aware of the money before we married baby" he tells me and my anger only increases at him. He's acting obnoxiously and privileged I tell myself feeling my emotions swell uncontrollably.
15Please respect copyright.PENANADQRJGaWX3A
"Jay" I say as he looks at me confused.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAfyye39ayP2
"I know that you're a CEO. You've said it twice." I say slightly sulkily.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAnw0S95QLLF
"But before any of that I thought you were my husband" I tell him letting my words hang in the air as he indicates off of a ring road and into an underground parking lot. Most of the buildings seem to be built on tall structures in Dubai rather than on ground level. There are many high rise buildings, it's practically hell for any person with vertigo.
15Please respect copyright.PENANADvefKXwjkt
Silently Jay kills the engine to the Ferrari, it lulls to a stop. He strokes my thigh with his hand as I turn to him.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAhDYGRHql2F
"I'll always be your husband before I am anything else. Forgive me for wanting to take you out having been at work during the day and missing you." He says slowly.
15Please respect copyright.PENANATL5RVouv59
"It's honestly me I'm just hormonal" I blurt out as he watches me slowly.
15Please respect copyright.PENANA4JNvkHvszq
"I just meant that I don't want you to think I'm in this for that" I tell him and he nods.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAC0XIil0WWs
"I would never ever think that Taylor" he smiles before opening up the crazy car doors as I chuckle slightly watching them slide up into the air. He climbs out and walks over to my side as I look up at him he grasps my hand and helps me out of the car.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAmVjGDYAbAE
"You carried my first son and now my next child and I think so highly of you. I love you, I'm just trying to enjoy our lives together in between all of the crazy that has happened over the past few months. The fact that I can facilitate this lifestyle is a bonus that I only wish to share with you" he says holding me close.
15Please respect copyright.PENANAxlj2pMgHqq
"I love you" I tell him standing in the car park by our white super car. I brush his blonde hair back and ask him about his day as his eyes soften and he takes my hands in his own.
