My Future Family
Chapter One.
"Dimitri, PLEASE don't make me go out tonight" the dress I was holding flew at him, crumpling in a pile at his feet. A deep chuckle filled the room.
"Roza, we're going to dinner with your parents. I promise you that you looked beautiful in that dress." I crossed my arms over my chest clutching my robe even tighter around me. " I don't want to. " My cheeks filled with air extending them from my face. I don't know why he thought this was so funny.
Gliding across the room – having to step over the dress, he stood in front of me pulling my body close to him letting me take in the spicy-ness of his cologne. I could feel his hands soothingly run over my back, gently massaging me. I felt like I was melting. But I knew what he was doing.
"Stop trying to butter me up Comrade. I feel like a house right now, and nothing is comfortable. I just want to sit in my pajamas and eat popcorn on the couch. Ask them if we can go tomorrow?" I looked up into his face where his brown orbs stared back at me with an amusing shimmer in them.
"Im sorry Roza, but we have to go tonight and you need to get dressed. Lets see about something a little more comfortable for you than shall we? Not so dressy if that one is too uncomfortable." Taking his arms from around me, instantly I could feel the loss of warmth. His touch was what I craved for.
Being seven and a half months pregnant – all I wanted was him to hold me in his arms. I just wanted him.
In the next few moments he emerged from our walk in closet with a long piece of black fabric and a short sleeve t-shirt made of a silkier material. " This is a t-shirt and a long maxi skirt. Lissa put these in here knowing you were going to need them at some point . And on the bed is what she called an " Oversized Knit Cardigan" She called this an emergency outfit." I stared at him holding this clothing, analyzing it and I couldn't help but bust out laughing.
His cheeks rose with a red tint. Strutting over to him I leaned up and kissed him, patting the side of his cheek, feeling the stubble underneath my fingers. " I never thought I'd see the day of my husband picking out my clothes for me, and repeating " Oversized Knit Cardigan". How'd I get so lucky?" I laughed and he cleared his throat while I grabbed the items and walked to the bathroom to undress and change.
"Roza, why do you go into the bathroom to change, I have seen you , you know?" I still shut the door cutting him off.
I could only stare in the mirror as I opened my robe, revealing my protruding abdomen that was covered in lines – also known as stretch marks. I hadn't physically been with Dimitri since my stomach really 'popped' and when I had discovered my changing body I had become the insecure nineteen year old girl again. My age might be showing but I couldn't help it.
"I know you have comrade but I just feel more co-" now I was cut off by the door opening and my towering husband entering in. It was like de'ja vu all over from when he embraced me the day I received my wedding dress.
Quickly grabbing the edges of my robe I shut them tight again and spun around. " Get out. " I could only stare at him. "Please Dimitri, just get out for now. I need to change." He stood there and was now the one to cross his arms over his chest that now wore a white button up with a dark wash jean.
"What are you trying to hide from me? For the past couple of months you have done nothing but hide from me, changing, bathing – you cover yourself with every chance. Now please , tell me whats wrong?"
I could only stare and sigh trying to combine my thoughts "Please just get out Dimitri, later. We can talk later – I need to change so we can meet my parents. I promise I'll talk with you later okay? " I smiled at him and he gave a small sigh with a a reassuring nod. "Okay – you better." I shooed him from the bathroom and closed the door again – locking it.
Truth was, I didn't really want to talk about it.
I came from the bathroom dressed in the skirt and shirt, and it was actually comfy and I didn't feel like a whale. Who would have though Lissa would have thought so far ahead. She was the real MVP in this situation. I guess that's why we were friends.
After the hole fiasco with Mia and Lissa being unconscious she now lived with Christian fulltime. Before she only lived with him partime as we called it and had sold her apartment. And we were making wedding plans every waking second of the day. Today had been an exception because Dimitri was off for the day and we had dinner with my parents tonight.
Twisting my hair into an elegant ( not ) topknot, and framing my face with a few pieces of hair – I was done. I didn't need makeup for my parents and already had my mascara and eyebrows done. I didn't need anything more, and my skin had been clearer than ever.
The drive to the restaurant wasn't too long – and I probably would have complained the whole way there considering the seatbelt always was super pinchy across my stomach. But I mean I wore it but I didn't appreciate it. I wish I could walk sometimes.
My parents thought it would be fun to meet for dinner once in a while – and I hadn't seem them for a month and a half now. They were busy travelling around the world for business and pleasure, they checked on me once in a while and my mom was very excited for her grandchild – which I had never seen her so excited before. It warmed my heart.
Sometimes while thinking about my parents I often let my mind wonder to how Dimitri felt , how it felt to not have his parents around to see his children – nor his grandmother. His sisters were there – but it wasn't the same. He never opened up that door though, it was locker shut and even if I had learned about his parents relationship he never really went into any stories about memories with them. Even if they were painful I still wish he would tell me, but I guess I could be a hypocrite because I didn't want to open about other things as well.
My thoughts snapped shut as soon as my door opened. Somewhere in my thoughts we had arrived and Dimitri had parked and removed himself from the car and opened my door.
" Are you going to eat in the car Roza? Or do you want to join us?" Humour laced his voice and I just shook my head and unbuckled myself. His arms helping to hoist me out of my seat. Not necessarily hoist but close enough. I didn't even want to know what I looked like at nine months.
Walking up the steps I stopped abruptly causing Dimitri to stop and look at me worried.
"Are you okay? " I nodded and stared at the entrance. "This is the restaurant. The one we had our first dinner in right?" I smiled at him as he looked and looked back at me nodding his head. "Yeah, I guess it is. Huh, a little reminiscing are we? Remembering when you had your heart stolen the first time." And for the first time I watched Dimitri wink at me. His flirtatious side was showing.
Playfully hitting his chest I walked past him to see where my parents were. " Yeah , and I remember that skanky waitress too – lets hope she isn't here." I could hear his laugh and feel it wrap around me as I smiled and walked ahead.
OKAY. SO . I didn't want to write the scene with her parents just yet because I want you to find the little things and feel the emotion of them and what to expect and maybe play a little scenarios of your head. And I found that if I want to keep my chapters about the same length – not too lengthy but not too little than Ihad to split it up. HOPEFULLY you are excited to read this next installment.
Make sure to review and let me know how you think ~
