Chapter 10
Ricky's prov
Next morning came very quickly and I woke in bed with arms wrapped around my belly, sighing I tried to get my bearings, the last thing I could remember was that I dozed off from Braxs massage he gave me so I could relax. I pulled myself up nudging Brax.
"what" he groaned
"your arms" I replied
He slowly moved his arms and I sat up moving to the bathroom leaving Brax to sleep, I washed myself down and returned to the bedroom with a bra and singlet on and the towel wrapped around my waist.
"I wondered where you got off to" he greeted as I walked over to him, who was sitting up, his bare chest showing. I smiled as I walked over to the dresser pulling out a shirt and pair of jeans for the day, turning to face him I slipped the shirt over my belly, he watched my every move until I was fully dressed and stood as he sat in bed.
"are you going to stay in bed?" I questioned smiling
"I think I would be quite lazy if my pregnant girlfriend can get up and I don't" he replied flashing his cheeky smile "come here" he motioned for me to come over to the bed, I sat down "unless I can convince you to stay" he stated as he kissed my neck, giggling I tried to break away but couldn't
"don't think about it mate" I replied finally controlling my giggling
"ok well what do you have planned?" he questioned pulling away
"not much, but I would like a coffee from the diner" I replied smiling
"well I guess we can do that"he stated kissing me on the cheek before he got up and got changed
We left the house and walked down to the diner hands entwined, walking in I noticed bianca and Irene having a conversation.
"hey darl" Irene greeted as Brax and I approached the counter
"hey" I replied "what are you two talking about?" I questioned
"nothing" bianca quickly replied "hey brax" she greeted smiling
"ok then can i get two takeaway coffees please then Irene" I stated uncertain to belive if it really was nothing that B and Irene were talking about
Bianca's prov
"gosh that was a close one" bianca stated when the coast was clear "well can you help out, please Irene she deserves it"
"I don't know yeah its a great idea but she has been through so much with Brax" Irene replied
"please Irene just help me out" bianca begged
"fine, its a suprise though" Irene replied
With that I left the diner and returned to work
Ricky's prov
We sat on the sand, drinking our cups of coffee
"do you know what that was about?" I questioned as he looked up and smiled
"nah, I don't know" Brax replied and I nodded taking another sip from my coffee
"so how are you feeling this morning?" brax questioned
"good" I replied as brax leaned in kissing my lips
The time spent with Brax was shortlived but sweet, we had decided to have lunch at Angelos so Brax could check up on the books and because I was craving at least ten pizzas or at least thats what it felt like.
"hey what do you want to do tonight?" Brax questioned as we walked hand in hand over to the bar
"honestly, I would like to eat a couple tubs of gelato on the couch, whys that?" I replied turning to face him as he retrieved the books from the other side of the bar
"no reason" he replied walking over to the side tables, him and I sitting down waiting for our lunch order
Brax's prov
We walked home after a couple of hours spent at Angelos and I had decided that the family could get together and have lunch together tomorrow since it would be my last day and that I had heard rumours in the prison yard that they were looking at cancelling the next lot of home visits, which means that I would definitely miss out on the birth of my first child, I didn't know how to tell Ricky that I will not be there for the birth of our child which was heartbreaking, not only am I going to miss out on alot of its life but I cant be there for the birth. The home visits were a privillage that alot of us prisoners didn't deserve and some idiot had to go and ruin it for the rest of us, when we go home we are on home detention which means they can track us with chip or band on our ankles, and someone ruined it by using it to escape custody.
"hey would you be alright if we had a family bbq tomorrow?" I questioned, Ricky smiled in return
"that would be great" she replied and I leaned in capturing her lips before pulling my phone out to update everyone on the bbq.
Ricky and I sat on the couch as she cuddled in my embrace, drawing patterns on her belly as she giggled quietly.
It came up 6pm and I had gotten a reply from the boys agreeing to the lunch and successfully being able to swap shifts to make it, sighing in content I placed my phone back down on the coffee table before interrupting the silence.
"what would you like for dinner?" I questioned as Rickys attention switched from the tv to my question
"lasanga" she replied with a suspicious tone "whys that?"
"ok then, will takeaway suffice?" I questioned as she looked up smiling, taking that as a yes, Ricky sat up and I got up off the couch collecting the car keys from the coffee table
"be back in five" I stated, kissing her on the cheek as she got comfortable once again on the couch
Ricky's prov
Once Brax had left I got up to check the couple of voicemails I recieved earlier.
Two voicemails
Sighing I placed the phone to my ear as the first message started
Hello Ricky, this is Laura calling about the job offer please call me back asap
Thanks
I quickly dialled the number waiting for her to answer
"hello" a voice answered
"hi Laura, this is Ricky Im calling in response to the message you left"
"great, I just wanted to let you know that you have successfully been accepted for the trial"
"wow, gosh thanks so much" I replied smiling
"your welcome, you should thank my brother for raving about you, anyway I will email you the details"
"will do, thanks again, bye"
"bye"
I couldn't help but smile for a few minutes after the phone call, I had just been accepted for an awesome trial which was pretty something I had dreamed about, I placed my phone on the table before making myself comfy on the couch again.
Brax's prov
I had made my way to Angelos to pick up some lasanga and picked up some gelato on the way out of the surfclub, arriving home about ten minutes I shut and and locked the ute, walking in, meeting Ricky in lounge who was laying quietly on the couch.
"hey" she greeted as I walked in
"hey" I replied sitting next to her, handing her food over and both of us tucking in.
We sat contently finishing our food, once we had finished I had passed over some gelato that she wanted, laying in eachothers embrace we watched a movie before retreating to bed.
Ricky's prov
The next morning I untangled myself from Braxs hold and made my way to the ensuite bathroom, running the water to the shower, hoping in moments later, I let the hot water run over my body. Stepping out of the shower I partially dressed myself, walking into the bedroom where I thought Brax would be still sleeping, i was met with no one in the room, slipping on a casual flowy maxi dress before walking out to the kitchen where Brax was, leaning on the bench siping his coffee.
"morning" he greeted sliding a coffee across to me, reciprocating the greeting before taking a sip from my coffee
Later that day
Brax and I had preped the bbq and food and one by one we were greeted by each of the boys, B, Denny and Phoebe.
The rest of the afternoon was nice; the warm sun, the chatter and our loved ones, it was a great afternoon before the prison guard returned to collect Brax.
Brax and I cuddled in eachothers embrace on one of the sun loungers, watching on, it had ticked over to 12:00 and it would be a few moments before Brax was collected.
Bianca's prov
I had quickly made my way inside to retrieve some juice and beers for us when I heard a knock at the door, walking over I answered it and was greeted by what seemed like a cop but really was just a prison guard.
"Afternoon ma'am" the guard greeted "is Darryl Braxton here?" and I knodded in response
"he is out the back, follow me" I replied and I walked the guard through to the backyard
Brax's prov
The afternoon went better than I expected and I enjoyed spending time with the boys and the girlfriends especially on my last day.
We were all laughing with some old storys when the guard and B walked through, Ricky and I sitting up at the same time.
"Darryl Braxton" he stated and I got up off the seat "Im sorry to bust this up but its time to go" at the mention of those words I hugged the boys one by one and said bye to the girls before returning to Ricky who was now stood up.
I walked over hugging her the best I could whispering in her ear "look after yourself" pulling away from the hug I noticed she had teared up, wiping the tear away as her eyes darted from my line of vision to the ground and then back to me.
"I love you so much, remember that" I stated and she knodded before replying
"I love you too" she replied and I smiled at those words before capturing her lips leaving a sweet tender kiss there.
Looking down I quickly rubbed Rickys belly saying bye to my unborn child before looking up and saying my last goodbyes to Ricky
"I will talk to you every night, ok" I stated kissing the side of her head before uravelling my arms from her waist and turning and following the guard out.
How is the next few months going to be like?
And will Adam finally talk to the cops, even after 6 months of brax being in prison?
Sorry for the late update, but thanks for support and reviews xx
