“I’m not needy, Jade. I have to find a damn job. I have plenty to do. You don’t need to feel guilty. I’ll more than make up for it when you’re home. I’ll rub your feet after a long day, or maybe rub your clit with my tongue, whatever method you prefer to relax. And if I don’t get work right away, this place will be spotless and you’ll have a hot meal and a glass of wine waiting for you every night.”
“That sounds like heaven, but seriously, I feel guilty that you gave up your career for me.”
“Listen…it’s your time to shine, okay? You’ve already established a successful career. If it’s meant to happen for me, it will. Right now, I just want to be with you. That’s my priority.”
It was my time to shine. Seriously? Was he for real? I had never been with someone so selfless.
“I want to try to hook you up with an acting gig,” I insisted.
Tyler seemed adamant. “I won’t take it. I refuse to ride on your coattails. That’s not what I came here for. I’ll go on auditions, but I’ll get gigs based on merit.”
I scratched his stubble. “I don’t know what to do with you, Tyler Hennessey.”
He took my hand and placed it on his rigid cock. “I’ll give you plenty to do.”
TWO YEARS LATER
TYLER
It was almost show time. I was backstage with Jade, relishing my final moments with her.
There wasn’t one day that went by that I didn’t thank my lucky stars that she had chosen me.
Life in New York hadn’t been easy. My time, for the most part over the past couple of years, was been spent working odd jobs and auditioning in between. But the one constant was getting to sleep next to her every night. And that made it all worth it.
My fiancée was a natural born star. So, tonight was going to be a strange reversal.
“I’m so proud of you, Tyler. When you told me you wanted to start from scratch without my help, I thought you were crazy, but clearly, I should’ve never doubted you. Look at where we are.”
I was starting to get the jitters. “Are you gonna be okay out there?”
“Yes. I might have to get up to go to the bathroom a few times, but I’ll be fine. I’m so excited to see the show.”
“Well, knowing that my two good luck charms will be out there on opening night is all the luck I’ll need.”
I knelt down to kiss her swollen belly. If I thought my woman was the most beautiful creature in the world before, she was even more beautiful pregnant.
Jade had to stop performing a few months ago when she really started to show. She’d be taking a year off from Broadway to stay home with our baby boy. It was what she wanted. Around the same time, I got the lead role in a new show, The Vegas Project. Everything was coming together like it had been written in the stars.
My dream to perform alongside her someday had yet to be realized. But I knew one day it would happen.
The stage manager made an announcement, which meant I had to leave her.
I pulled her close. “I love you, Jade.”
“I love you, too, Tyler.” She started to walk away then blew me one last kiss and said, “It’s your time to shine, baby.”
