Chapter 9:

"Gabriella Anna Soto. Will you Marry Me?"

Tears where flowing freely out of Gabby's eyes. She had completely broken down but somehow she manage to get out a yes along with the nodding of her head. Bo slipped the ring onto her finger and then took her face into his hand's and kissed her. He then took her into his arm and rocked her back and forth. After a minute or two Gabby pulled back and kissed again.

"Oh Bo," she said. "You have no idea how happy you just made me."

"Oh... I have an idea." Bo said in between kissing

Gabby rested her head on Bo shoulder and after a while of just talking and kissing she tried to hide an yawn. Bo kissed her forhead.

"Come on." he said. "It's bed time."

They got ready and went up stairs. Thought they had been going out for a year now they still slepted in different rooms. It was more or less to set a good example for Jessy-Bell if anything, but tonight they didn't care. Gabby got changed and went out to Bo's room for a goodnight kissed. Bo pulled her down onto the bed with him and flipped her over him onto the inside of the bed. She stayed there and Bo just covered them up and pulled her into his arms. Bo watched for a bit as Gabby played with her ring and then they both closed there eyes and fell off to sleep.

Time after that seem to fly by. It was the spring of the new year that they got married. Jessy-Bell was so happy when they explained to her what was going to happen between Bo and Gabby. To be honest the first thing she said was:

"So I can finally call Gabby Mommy now?"

"Of course..." Gabby cried. And sure enough from then on Gabby was Mommy. Bo broke down and admitted to Gabby that he had caught Jessy-Bell referring to her as Mommy when she was younger. He of course always corrected her because, well, back then he never dreamed they'd end up falling in love.

Jeffery and Shaunna was more then happy to be the witnesses at the wedding. Since Bo and Gabby both only had themselves family wise (Bo still couldn't muster the strength to go back to Hazzard) they decided to get married by the Justice of the peace with just the two witnesses... well Four if you count Jessy-Bell and Becky.

After the wedding life went on as it was. They lived together as a family, happy and content. All three of them. It was three years into the married that Gabby realized that after three years of marriage she hadn't become pregnant. This brought on some concern for her. It wasn't like they where trying but at the same time they didn't take any precautions in making sure they didn't. Finally one day she went down to see the doctor. She explained to him why she was concern. The doctor did a few test and sent them away. A few day's later the doctor called her back.

"Mrs. Duke. How do I explain this. From what I got back with the tests that we ran. We way your reproductive organs are set up in away that makes it difficult for conceiving."

"Meaning?" asked Gabby.

"Meaning that... the odds of you conceiving a child naturally is about 1 out of 1000 or more... I'm sorry." replied the doctor.

"Or more. So you're saying that the odds of me having a baby are the about same a winning the lotto?" asked Gabby now trying to hold back tears

"I'm sorry." Replied the Doctor.

"Um... A few years ago I had a miscarriage. I mean... So that was like... My winning ticket and it like...blew out of my hand or something?" asked Gabby frantly hoping that the doctor was wrong.

The doctor just lowered his head and looked up at her again.

"I'm afraid so." he replied.

Gabby just contained herself. She thanked the doctor and left for home. When she got home Bo was sat down reading the new paper. He had heard her come in.

"Hey babe. How did everything go at the doctors?" asked Bo

"Where's Jessy-Bell?" asked Gabby sharply.

Bo dropped his paper. He looked up to Gabby. He knew something wasn't right.

"Upstairs playing. Why?"

Gabby went over and sat next to Bo.

"I just found out that the odds of me having a baby are the same as winning the lotto."

"What!?" replied Bo. "But... When you where with Mike. You...."

"Yea...My one and only baby... and he killed it...." cried Gabby. Bo graved her and pulled her into his chest. Gabby cried the hardest Bo ever seen her.

That bastard! He had taken everything away from her. Her childhood, her innocents, and now her one and only baby she would ever have. He swore then that if he ever crossed Mike Hearts pather again he'd cause the man some real pain!

As Gabby was breaking down in Bo's arms, Jessy-Bell came down staris and seen her mother crying in her father's arm.

"What's wrong with mom?" asked Jessy-Bell

"She just got some bad new baby." replied Bo

At that Gabby lifted her head from Bo's chest and reached out an arm for Jessy-Bell. The little girl quickly ran to her mother and hugged into her.

"What's wrong Mommy?" asked Jessy-Bell

"Oh baby... Mommy just found out that she can't have any babies." replied Gabby.

"So I wont have any brothers or sisters?" Asked Jessy-Bell

"I'm sorry baby... but no." answered Bo as Gabby could barely speak with sobs.

"Oh..."Replied Jessy-Bell "Well... You still have me Mom."

Gabby pulled Jessy-Bell into a deep hug wrapping her arms tightly around the little girl and kissed the top of her head.

"I know I do baby. I know I do."

The three of them stayed there for so long until Jessy-Bell fell asleep in her mother's arms. Bo picked up the little girl and carried her up stairs and put her to bed. After he came back down stairs. Gabby was still on the couch. She looked up at Bo as he knelt down in front of her.

"You know if you want to have a baby... We can find a way. If we can't... well then we can adopt if you want another child. It's all up to you. I want what ever make you happy." he told her.

Gabby smiled.

"I know. Maybe. One day. I don't know when." she replied. "I was just so tore up about it cause... well the one child I could have was taken away from me. I don't. I wasn't even thinking about having a baby it just struck me funny that after three years of us being together... I just though that... well with the way we are... Well I just thought it would be know no time and we'd be having one."

Bo gave her a weak smile.

"Well when you're ready. Let me know and I'll help in anyway possible."

" I know. You know we have Jessy-Bell. She's 9. You're 29, I'm 26... there's lost of time yet I guess." replied Gabby. "Lets just play it one day at a time."

"Okay." replied Bo "Now come here I get you up to bed..."

And with that Bo picked Gabby up and carried her off to bed.

"Ahh..." cried Gabby "Careful! Don't drop me!"

"Drop you?" laughed Bo " Honey... What is there to drop? You're as light as a feather. Heck haft the time I'm afraid I'll break you, you're that tiny."

"Break me... Bo Duke have you been holding out on me?" said Gabby laughing though the tears.

Bo smiled.

"Maybe? It's only cause I love you don't want to hurt you." said Bo giving her the biggest puppy dog eyes he could muster.

"You better no... or I'll hold out on EVERYTHING." she replied

Bo stopped and looked her in the eyes and then swolled head.
"Yes ma'm!" he replied. And then cracked his devilish smile.

Gabby just laughed...
