Cold Showers — Chapter 63

As soon as Sebastian stepped into Jayda's apartment with the tubs of ice cream she asked him to buy, he was greeted with the aroma of his favourite food. For a while, he thought he had entered the wrong apartment. Then it hit him, it would be no other than Jayda that was cooking when she was meant to be on bed rest.

Seb groaned, making his way to the kitchen where he met Jayda, effortlessly doing her magic.

Jay's smile got wider as soon as she sighted Sebastian. She wiped her hands with a napkin, approached him, wrapped her arms around his neck, before standing on her toes and giving him a kiss on his lips.

"You were meant to be in bed." Seb accused.

"I took a long nap, I watched a movie then I was getting hungry so I decided to make dinner for us."

"You should have waited for me to come back to make dinner," Seb said.

"You've been taking care of me since forever. I just thought I should return the favour." She smiled.

Sebastian nodded. "In that case, I can't wait to taste the food, it smells so delicious." he kissed her lips.

"Feeling better?" He asked even when he could see it on her face.

"Yes love, thanks to you."

"How did your meeting go and how is Caleb?" She said.

Sebastian tried not to look tense as he responded to her question. "It was fine and Caleb is fine too. He sent his regards."

Jayda nodded, putting the ice cream in the fridge.

"Why don't you go take a shower while I serve dinner, it's almost ready." Jayda proposed.

"Are you sure? Don't you need any help in setting up the table?"

"I'll handle it, Seb. Be here in five minutes or else I'll start eating without you." She threatened after which she went back to her cooking.

Sebastian took a quick shower, changed and then made his way to the dining room.

The table was already set so he took a seat beside Jayda. They both held hands, Jayda said a short prayer and then they dug in.

"I just realized my birthday is weeks away," Jayda said before reaching for her glass of orange juice.

"Yes, Lilian told me," Seb said.

"You two are beginning to get pretty close. Is there anything else that the both of you have talked about that I don't know." She asked with an eyebrow raised.

Jayda chuckled, "I was just joking, there's nothing to be tensed about. I trust the two of you. Besides, I like it that you two are getting along."

Sebastian internally heaved a sigh of relief.

"So when did she tell you?" Jayda asked.

"The day she came to warn me not to hurt you. She said you never go out to celebrate your birthday and that I should make this one memorable for you. So how do you want to celebrate your birthday, Miss Wright?" He asked.

"I'm a pregnant woman so I can't go all the way to the club to have fun. I'll just celebrate it like the previous years, go to work, come back early, settle on my sofa with food and drinks by my side and watch TV till midnight."

"There will be a slight change this time because my birthday falls on Saturday so I'll spend the day being lazy."

Sebastian shook his head in disbelief at Jayda's reply. That was definitely not what was going to happen this time around. He was going to celebrate her birthday for her in a grand style.

Since Jayda was the one that cooked, Sebastian offered to clear the table and do the dishes while Jayda took a shower.

When Seb was done with the cleaning, he made his way to Jayda's bedroom and noticed she was still in the shower.

He reached for his phone. His heart jumped against his chest when he saw an email notification. The test results he has been waiting for had been sent to him.

While holding his phone with shaky hands, he opened the mail and went through it.

Positive!!!

Aaron was his son.

Sebastian exhaled and slowly took a seat on Jayda's bed. The test results have proven his instinct right and it was time to think about what next.
