Chapter 3: Telling the Family.
Colby and Neysa were at her grandparent's house for a family bbq with her Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Paul and her mom.
They had just pulled up the driveway and were sitting in Colby's black Cadillac he turned off the car and took her hand in his and intertwined their fingers.
"Neys, are you ready for this babe?" He asked as he tightened his hold onto her hand.
"Not really but this seems to be the best option since everyone is here together" Neysa replied as she took his hand and kissed the back of it.
"Sweetheart, I am going to be by your side and I will tell them if you want me to" Colby said as he took his other hand and brushed a hair out of her face.
"I love you, how about we just do it together" Neysa said as she leaned over and kissed his lips softly, he opened her mouth a little wider and softly slipped his tongue inside and found hers and deepened the kiss a little.
When they entered the house they were greeted by Neysa's Grandmom Patricia and she hugged her tightly.
"It's so good to see you sweetie" Patricia said as she broke the hug and then walked over to hug Colby.
"I'm so glad that you got to come today Colby" Patricia said.
"Thanks Patricia, It's good to be here" Colby replied.
"Grams, have you seen my mom?" Neysa asked as she took Colby's hand and held on tightly.
"She was in the kitchen the last time I saw her a few minutes ago" Patricia said.
Neysa started to walk towards the kitchen and Colby followed and took a deep breath as they entered into the kitchen.
"Hi, mom" Neysa said as she saw her mom at the island chopping things for the hamburgers.
"Neysa" Lynne smiled as she walked over to hug her daughter.
"What about me?" Colby asked with a laugh as he stood with his arms up.
"You know I love you to Colby" Lynne said as she hugged him next.
"I'm glad you feel that way because like it or not I'm here to stay" Colby winked at her.
"He's a keeper" Neysa said as she hugged him from the side and wrapped her arm around his waist.
"I love you to babe" Colby kissed the side of her head.
"Where are Uncle Paul and Aunt Steph?" Neysa asked as her heart began to race a little. Colby could feel her nerves and hugged her a little closer to see if he could calm her down.
"They are outside with the girls" Lynne said as she went back to the island.
"Do you think you could go outside with us for a few minutes?" Neysa said as she looked to Colby for support.
"Is everything ok Neysa?" Lynne asked with some concern.
"Yes, we just have some news we want to share with everyone and might as well do it all at once" Neysa replied as Colby wrapped his arms around Neysa's shoulders.
They were all outside on the deck with Paul and Steph on the swing, and the other sitting on lounge chairs and at tables. Colby went over and sat on one of the gliders and Neysa beside him and took his hand and locked fingers with his so she could feel his strength he leaned over and kissed her and whispered "I love you".
"Ok, what is this news that you need to tell us?" Lynne asked as she took a sip of her drink.
"Well, I'm sorry that Peter is not here for me to able to share it with him but it seemed like the best opportunity to tell everyone at once" Neysa said as she took a breath and looked over at Colby who nodded his head. "As you know Colby and I have been dating for a while and we are planning on getting married at some point in the future. We discovered a couple of weeks ago that I am pregnant" Neysa said and then let out a big breath and put her head on Colby's shoulder not wanting to look yet at the reaction on people's faces.
"You're pregnant?" Paul asked as he wanted to make sure he heard her correctly.
"Yes" she mumbled into Colby's shirt.
"Ok, how far along are you?" Lynne asked with a look of disbelief on her face.
"8 weeks" Colby replied as he put his arm around Neysa and hugged her to his chest. "We didn't plan this and we were taking precautions it just happened" Colby said.
"What are your plans?" Paul asked as Steph was rubbing his back trying to keep him calm.
"Our plans are to have a baby" Neysa said as she lifted her head up from Colby's chest.
"I think what Paul is asking is, have you made any decisions on where you're going to live, school things like that?" Stephanie said as she looked over at Neysa with a smile on her face.
"Since Colby already has a condo, and his wrestling school is in Iowa I am going to move with him and after the baby is born I can think about going back to school or finish online or something" Neysa replied.
"Not everything is set in stone we have only had a couple of months to get used to this idea" Colby said as he looked around the room at the faces.
"I can't believe my baby is going to have a baby" Lynne said as she was sort of getting teary eyed.
"Mom, I will always be your baby no matter what" Neysa said as she got up and went over to hug her mom.
"Do you think Daddy would be proud of me?" Neysa asked softly as she looked at her mom with tears in her eyes.
"Your dad was always proud of everything you and Peter did and I know he would be proud of the young women that you have become you are a Oueltte and that means something" Lynne replied as she looked in Neysa's face.
"I am a Ouelette but I will be a Lopez soon" Neysa replied as she looked over at Colby and winked.
It had been a couple of weeks and Neysa had finally moved all of her stuff into Colby's condo in Iowa. It was taking some getting used to her new surroundings and learning her way around Davenport. They had to go and change her license and get her car tags for her BMW SUV that they had bought when she moved to Idaho. She had traded in her car for the SUV because she thought it would be easier with the baby. They found out a couple of days ago at her doctor's appointment that they were going to have a little girl, Colby said he was going to make sure that she was going to be a daddy's girl. They were in the bedroom that they were turning into a nursery; Colby had it as a guest room office before.
"I love the pink and purple walls baby" You are doing such a good job with the paint Neysa said as she rubbed her tummy she had begun to show a little with a round bump. She had on leggings and one of Colby's t-shirts that was actually getting tight. Colby had on some old nylon sports shorts and a tank top with his hair in a ponytail and a ball cap on backwards.
"I think we picked out the right colors to go with the butterflies" Colby said to Neysa as he walked over and stood by Neysa and looked at the walls.
"I can't believe I am standing in a soon to be nursery talking about pink and purple paint colors and butterflies with the WWE Champion" Neysa said with a smirk on her face.
"That's how this Champion Rolls" Colby says and he leans down and kisses Neysa softly he then rubbed her tummy "Daddy loves you baby girl" Seth said softly.
"I think I am going to go lay down for a little baby, I'm really tired " Neysa said as she yawned
"Good idea baby, you really don't need to be in with the fumes from the paint anyway" Colby replied as he kissed her softly.
