6 months pregnant
Erin woke up to the sun shining through the gap in the curtains onto her eyes. Opening her eyes she smiled lazily as she seen Jay already awake looking down at her running her finger back and forth over her stomach. Reaching up she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hands and tried to hold back a yawn but it was no use. Jay smiled at just how cute she was when she first woke in the morning. Leaning down he pressed a kiss to her lips and smiled against her lips.
"Morning beautiful" Grinned Jay
"MMM good morning….what happened to your eye?"
"He put up a fight when we went to arrest him. How was your night with Nadine?"
"It was good it got me thinking though"
"Yeah about what?"
Erin looked up at him and sat up leaning against the headboard as Jay to sat up facing her, he could see the nervousness in her eyes. Leaning over she grabbed a catalogue that was full of nursery things and set it on her lap. Jay looked at her confused as she played with the corner of the pages. Wanting to know what was going through her mind he took the catalogue out of her hands setting it on the bed and reached up tucking a stray piece of hair that had fallen out of her messy bun during the night behind her ear.
"Speak to me baby" Spoke Jay softly.
To him it might not seem like a big deal but to Erin it really was a big deal, she had never asked anyone this before nor wanted anyone to do it.
"So Nadia and I were looking at nursery things and we couldn't think of where to put it all. I mean if it was just one baby we could cope for a bit while we figured it out. But we are having two and I…..we can't cram two babies into a one bedroom apartment. Neither of us had room and I want them to have their own rooms like I never had so it got me to thinking….. I …want to buy a house with you…. My lease is up next week. We don't have to we can figure it out but i…i…just though"
Erin was cut off by his lips against her as he kissed her deeply.
"Erin Lindsay there is nothing more than I would love move it with you. MY lease is week to week since there is always a chance that I get called back to the Army. I could call a real-estate agent this morning as see if there is any house we could go look at"
Erin nodded with the biggest smile on her face and lay her hands on her large bump as Jay went up to call about house. Dressed in her boy shorts and spaghetti strapped vest top she padded out to the kitchen wincing at the cold laminate flooring beneath her feet. Deciding she really needed oatmeal she started to make herself some and bacon with eggs for Jay. The radio played softly as she sang along to the country channel.
Hanging up the phone that's how he found her as he walked into the kitchen. Her back to him at the stove barefoot singing away to herself. Grinning he snapped a photo with his cell phone and got the orange juice out pouring it into two glassed and made himself a coffee. Placing his breakfast down in front of him Erin leaned down pressing a kiss to his lips and sat down across from him. During breakfast he explained how the real-estate agent had four house that would be perfect for them and with the right plan not to coasty and they were able to go and view the properties today. So Erin called Hank to explain why they wouldn't be in today but he explained to her that if they were house hunting that he had something for her.
"Hanks on his way over with something for me" Said Erin hanging the phone up
"It that case we better go and get ready for the day"
Erin and Jay had literally just finished getting ready when there was a knock at door followed by Hanks voice calling her name. Shaking her head at the urgency he had in his voice she chuckled and opened the door letting him in. Hank smiled and kissed her cheek as he walked further in smiling at Jay as he walked out of the hall sitting on the couch. Erin sat down beside him and Hank sat on the arm chair to the side of them perched on the edge of the chair a white envelope in his hands.
"What's up Hank is this about Billy?" Asked Erin
"No no nothing like that actually about Camille. When we found out she was dying we…she updated her will she left both you and Justin something for when you bought family houses. I don't know how much it is she had been saving without me knowing just told me to give you the envelope." Explained Hank
Hank handed the envelope over to Erin who took it carefully opening it and pulled out the papers and gasped.
"Hank that thirty grand we can't take this" Said Erin
"You can and you will. I had a word with the lawyer and the bank the money will be in your account later morning or afternoon around one"
"Thank you so much Hank" Said Erin hugging him tightly.
"Yes thank you" Spoke Jay
"Don't thank me it was all Camille. Just get them babies a family home and take care of my little girl Jay"
"Yes sir"
Erin glared at him calling her his little girl. Hank needed to get to work so he didn't stay long he was in and out within half an hour and soon they were looking around houses trying to imagine what it would look like with their things in but all Jay could imagine was a beautiful Erin running around after two toddlers their laughter filling up the room. By the time they got to the third house they didn't need to look at the fourth one this one was the one, it was their house. They instantly got her to call and put an offer down.
The house on the outside was the typical American dream looking house. On the first floor was a large living room, a decent sized dining room, a massive kitchen with two French doors leading out to the porch to the big garden. In the middle of the very big kitchen was an isles where it was set up with chair around one half and a chopping bored built in on the other side. Of to the side was three steps leading down to a door the lead to a tiny hall with two door one for the utility room and one to the garage coming from the front of the house. It the perfectly sized hall was stairs leading up to the second floor. On the second floor closest to the stairs was the spare bedroom, it was small but big enough for a double bed, night stands a wardrobe and a set of drawers if they needed It. Next was the bathroom a big beautiful white and grey bathroom. It had a standalone bath a shower in the corner. Then it the master bedroom that had en-suit opposite end to the bathroom. With a bath shower combe. Their room was bigger than she was used to. It would happily fit her king sized bed and all her other furniture with plenty of room left. Down the hall one either side was two exact the same bedrooms. They were decent sized bigger than most children's rooms Erin thought. The agent put their offer of the asking price to the current owner and told them she would get back to them so they stopped to get some ice cream and headed home.
When they got home the person she had been dreading since New Year two months ago was standing leaning against her door. Jay could feel her grip on his hand tighten and he looked over at her concerned then followed her gaze to the man leaning against her door. If looks could kill then the look she was giving him would have by sure have killed him but unfortunately they didn't.
"What do you want" Snarled Jay
"To speak to my daughter" Grinned Billy
"Well I don't want to speak to you"
"Come on Erin baby don't be like that I'm your dad"
"Don't call me baby and you're not my dad, Hank is more my dad than you are now leave me alone I have nothing to say to you"
"Well I have something to say to you and I want to hear about my grand baby in there"
"I told you before I want nothing to do with you now leave"
Erin unlocked the door and walked straight through it without looking at him going straight into their en-suit bathroom. She could hear Jays voice telling Billy to go away and stay away as she leaned over the bathtub turning the taps on and pouring some bubble bath in. Hearing the door close and the familiar sound of Jays footsteps coming towards her she sighed in relief and pulled her clothes off turning the taps off and getting into the water. Jay walked in just as she sat down and sat down by the side of the bath. Resting his hand on her bump in the water he gently caressed her skin. Erin smiled up at him and closed her eyes as the water relaxed her muscles and relieved her aching back.
"You okay baby?" Asked Jay
"Yeah I'm just….I just hope we get this house. If we don't I really hope we have a house before the babies are born"
"We will baby"
Just as Jay was about to say something the house phone rang. Standing quickly walked out to the living room answering it before it rang out. Erin was curious as to who was calling the house phone because normally almost everyone called their cell phones. Either way her bath was making her to relaxed to worry too much. Closing her eyes she drifted off into a light sleep as she felt the water around her body and the feeling on the babies move about inside of her. By the time Jay was off the phone Erin was sound asleep in the bath.
Walking back into the en-suit he smiled when he heard the soft snored coming from her lips. Kneeling back down beside the edge of the bath he ran his finger down her cheek as her eyes flickered open and she smiled up at him. Grinning Jay pulled his clothes off quickly and pulled Erin to sit up before he climbed in the tub behind her. All her life Erin had never wanted to share a bed or a bath tub with another guy but now here she was moving in with one, sitting in a bath tub with said guy and six months pregnant with his babies.
"We got the house babe" Whispered Jay into her ear from behind her.
"We did" Gasped Erin turning around to face him, her speed sloshing water over the edge of the white tub.
"We did baby we got our house we get the keys the second Friday of next month"
Jay laughed at the excited look on her face as her lips crashed against his. Gripping her hips he kissed her with just as much passion and could feel his reaction to her. Good if she was going to be like this the rest on her pregnancy he was going to love it, I mean they had sex a lot more than most couples probably but now it was all the time.
