Badass Boyfriend Pt.4

Intro

"Silent Night….Holy Night….All is calm, All is bright. Round young virgin, mother and child. Holy infant so tender and mild. Sleep in Heavenly peace."

"Is that your favorite Christmas song?" Mark asked as he handed me another ornament for the tree.

I smiled at him, knowing it was the main song I had been singing since December started. We had been living together now for nearly two months and things were great. Neither of us heard from my mother or father, since we caught them screwing. I guess they were too embarrassed to show their disgusting faces. And to think, I was actually trying to get Mark to go back to a woman like her….

Anyways, things between Mark and I couldn't be any better. Not only had we become really good friends but he was taking a shine to the bun in my oven. When he first moved in with me, we went shopping together so we could pick stuff out for the baby's room. I had to admit, it was real adorable watching him roam the aisles trying to pick out the perfect stuff for me. When we were done, we went back to the house to begin working on the room. While he painted the walls light pink, I rested on the sofa in the den, reading a romance novel. After that, we got the crib put together and placed it in the right corner of the room. We then took our time putting away everything we bought.

Now here I stand only a few weeks from my due date and I feel big as a house.

"Yes it's my favorite song. Am I annoying you by singing it?" I asked.

He chuckled, "No but it would be nice to hear you sing something else."

I giggled and placed the ornament on the tree. "What's your favorite Christmas Song?"

He sighed, "To tell you the truth, I don't have one. I was never really a Christmas type of person."

I placed my hands on my belly and walked to the couch, "How come?"

He turned around and followed me, sitting down on the opposite side of the couch. "I'm not sure really. I guess to me, it's just another day."

I pulled my legs up onto the couch and sat Indian style. He watched me with a smile as I adjusted my legs under my fat belly. I then glanced at him and laughed, "Be quiet."

"I'm sorry, you're just so cute sitting there struggling like that. Are you about ready to pop?" he asked.

I sighed with a deep breath making him laugh.

"It can't be that bad." He said.

"Mark…you have no idea." I said. "Anyways I was thinking about inviting Phil's sister down to have Christmas dinner with us."

Mark's eyes lit up, "Sister…ooo…is she cute?"

I giggled and raked my hand through my hair, "She's pretty,"

"Cool because I refuse to have dinner with one beautiful girl and a rat." He said.

I roared with laughter, "Mark! That's so foul!"

"I'm just saying…" he said just before the doorbell rang.

I rolled my eyes wondering who could be at my front door. I really didn't feel like getting up at all. Mark glanced at me and then got up, "I'll get it."

"Thank you." I said before he left the room.

I heard the bell ring once more before Mark opened the door. There was no sound after that which kind of spooked me at first. I was wondering what was going on until I heard Mark heading back to the living room followed by someone. When he turned the corner he had a smirk on his face.

"Who is it?" I asked.

He looked down at his feet and then looked back at me, "Your early Christmas gift."

When he stepped out of the way, my eyes were instantly locked onto John's blue ones. He was standing there with a soft smile on his face showing off those pearly white teeth. He was wearing some black jeans with black snow boots and a white winter coat.

"Hey Kat."

I gasped and got up from the couch, nearly running into his arms before he stopped me.

"Let me take my coat off first…it's covered in snow." He said as he went to work unzipping his coat. Once it was off, he opened his arms and I stepped into them.

"I'm so glad to see you." I said as a tear fell from my eye.

He rubbed my back and then stepped back from me. "I'm glad to see you too…Merry Christmas."

I smiled, "Merry Christmas."

He looked at Mark who was standing nearby with a smile on his face, "Thanks so much for doing this for me. I'll repay you somehow."

I glanced at Mark, "You did this?"

He nodded, "I figured they would let him out early if I told them I would help him get back on track…and I wanted to give you something special for Christmas since you've been through so much."

I sighed and walked up to him. He wrapped his arms around me as I hooked his neck with one arm and stood on my tip toes. "Thank you so much Mark. This really means a lot to me."

He nodded against me and then released me. "No problem…here, let me take your bags to the guestroom."

John nodded as Mark picked up his two suitcases. "I'll leave you two kids alone."

I laughed as Mark went up the steps leaving me standing there with the man who loved me.
