That night full of passion

That night full of passion 3

"Why had that to be as complicated?" was the first thing that Martha thought that day, when she arrived at home after being with Lionel in the back room of the Talon.
She went to her room, she got undressed, and she put herself in front the mirror. She caressed her nearly three-month-pregnance tummy, and she thought on how much she wished to have that little life in her arms. Then she touched that parts of her body where Lionel had kissed her some hours before, and she could still feeling his lips on her skin...
M: I love you so much, Lionel... but I can't ask you to renounce your happiness for this baby... - she whispered to hiself.
Suddenly, somebody opened the door...
C: Mum! Sorry I... - he fixed his look on her tummy.
M: Clark! - she sceared - What are you doing here? - she quickly took something to cover herself.
C: I haven't classes this afternoon, I listened some noise here, and I supposed that you was at the Talon... - he couldn't move his look away from her tummy - But, you weren't.
M: Right. I came back early, today... I didn't feel really well.
C: Of course you not... - he woke up of his trance moment - Mum... you're pregnant!
M: I'm not! - lied really bad, Martha.
C: Come'on mum, of course you are...
Martha sat down on the bed and asked Clark to do the same.
M: I'm nearly three months pregnant, son... - she smiled.
C: That's great, mum! Why didn't you tell me before? I don't trust Lionel too much, but... this is different, I will have a brother!! - then he relised that his mother wasn't as happy - What's wrong, mum? Isn't Lionel the father? Did anybody do anything to you?
M: Oh no! No son! ... don't worry about that... Lionel is the father.
C: So... what's the problem?
M: He don't want any baby now.
C: Does he say this to you? - asked being upset.
M: No... not exactly... well, he didn't know anything about this, yet... and he will not!
C: Why, mum? I'm sure he will be very happy of having a baby with you...
M: I'm not sure of this... he told me that he want to live his life now that his son is as old to take care of hiself.
C: But he said you without knowing anything...
M: It doesn't matter... I don't want to tell him, anyway.
C: And how will you keep this away from him, mum? Your tummy will be bigger soon, and he will come back in some weeks...
M: No... he's already here...
C: Have you seen him?
M: Yes, he came to Talon to visit me, he said he missed me a lot - she smiled.
C: You see, mum, do you see how do you smile when you speak about him? You have to tell this to Lionel. And if he don't want the baby, it doesn't matter, I will help you...
M: This is not the problem, Clark. I know that Lionel would take care about me and the baby. But he don't want a family, now, he want to have fun, and I don't want him to renounce to this from us.
Clark hugged his mother and then he put his hand on her tummy.
C: Do you know how much lucky have you been, little boy? - he said to the tummy - You will be the son of the best woman of this world...
Martha moved and started to cry sweetly, then she kissed his son cheek before he went out of the room.

That same day, at the afternoon, Clark went to see Lionel.
L: Hi Clark, how are you?
C: I'm fine Lionel, thank you. How was your travel?
L: It was good, but I missed you this too much.
C: Did you miss my mother? - this question surprised Lionel, but he answer it honestly.
L: I did. Too much. I missed her every day, every night, every moment... I couldn't take her away of my mind...
C: Can I ask you something?
L: Sure.
C: What do you want from her? What do you expect from her?
L: I love your mother, Clark. I would never hurt her, if it's this what you want to know.
C: No. I want you to answer the question... is she just one woman more in your-life-womel-list?
L: No! She isn't! She is THE woman of my life! I want to spent the rest of my life with her... but she doesn't seem to want the same as me.
C: Would you still wishing the same if being with her meant stay here, not more travels, not more work, not more adventures...?
L: Sure! I would still wishing the same even if that meant to lose all what I have!
C: In this way, meaybe you should talk with her... how about a dinner, in the farm, today? You both will be alone... she will be waiting you at eight o'clock... don't be late!!

Clark asked her mother to preppear a delicious dinner for the two of them that night. He also ask her to dress really pretty... he said her that they would celebrate her pregnance.
But at eight o'clock, somebody knocked the door, and then Clark said her that he should go out.
Martha, not understanding anything, went to open the door. It was Lionel, with a red tulips bouquet.
M: Lionel! What are you doing here?
L: Clark...
M: Oh, god! Ok. Come in... now I understand all this...
L: What?
M: Nothing - she smiled.
L: You look really pretty...
M: Thanks - she blushed - Are them for me?
L: What? Oh, yeah, the floweres... of course, they are for the prettiest woman of the world, and I thought this is you...
She blushed more, and took the flowers.
M: Take a sit, please, I'm going to take the dinner from the kitchen.

Clark still there, waiting her.
M: What does it mean Clark? I will not...!
C: Sure you will! He deserve to know it, mum. He love you too much. And trust me, he want this baby as mush than you...
He kissed her and disappeared, then Martha went to the dinningroom with the dinner.

Before start eating, Lionel served some vine in the glasses, but Martha said him that she will not drink vine.
M: Lionel... I have to tell you something...
L: What is it? Are you ok?
M: I'm fine, I'm better than ever - she smiled - This is something that I should tell you before...
L: You're worrying me...
M: Lionel, do you remember when you said me that you want to live the life now that our sons are old?
L: I do.
M: How about if they weren't... what would happened if our sons were childs yet, would you love me anyway? Would you stay with me?
L: Of course! We would build a family together, then, and that would be really nice... I can't imagine a better woman to have a family than you...
He hold her hand.
M: I'm pregnant.
L: What? - he surprised himself but he was smiling - You... you're pregnant? We're going to have a baby?!
M: Yeah! We are! - she was glad to see Lionel so happy.
L: Oh Martha, you're making me the happiest man of this world.
M: Really?
L: Of course! Oh my god! I'm being a father again!! I'm being a father with the woman I love!! Isn't this a dream becoming true?
He stood up and went with Martha. She still sat down and he hugged and kissed her.
L: Marry me, Marta! Be my wife to do a family of us!
M: Are you sure of this, Lionel?
L: Sure, I am! I never wished nothing more than this! Come on, what do you say, will you be my wife?
She smiled and kissed him.
M: I will.
Lionel touched her tummy and said to his future son...
L: Have you listened this, your parents are getting married! - then he look at Martha. She still sitting down and he was kneel down - I love you, Martha - he had tears on his eyes.
M: I love you too - she was crying, crying of hapiness because all that had finally found its happy ending.
