Chapter 10 – Two Arrivals Part 1
~5 months later~
(Aniki's P.O.V.)
I am officially nine months pregnant, and due any day now. This made Jack more nervous each and every day. Since Rose is 5 months old; Rosto is working full time at the moment, Jack stays there until about nine at night. With Kora and I being so far along with our pregnancy there is nothing us could do.
Beka stays at home all day with Daniel and Rose. It was really cute to watch them all interact. She would be trying to feed Rose when Daniel would come up and offer to help. She would tell him he could help by cleaning up his bedroom and he would do it at once with a huge smile on his face. It made me realize what special moments I have to look forward to.
"Aniki, open up" Kora yelled as she banged on my apartment door.
"Hold your horse's missy," I said back as I rolled my eyes. I carefully waddled my way over to the door and unlatched it.
"What's up?" I asked with a smile.
"Elizabeth came to my door, and told me that Beka is on the way with the kids. Get ready, and well walk around the market before we walk down to the Rogue" She smiled brightly.
I just nodded my head yes, as I shut the door. "Time for me to get ready" I laughed to myself.
As I was getting myself ready I started thinking about how I haven't seen Beka and the kids in about three weeks because I can't do a whole lot with being pregnant. It was sad to think about but then I would think about how im due any day and it would take all the sadness away.
Within about ten minutes I walked out of the house and met everyone down by the building door. Daniel, Beka and Rose greeted me.
"How are my favorite nephew, his precious baby sister and my good friend doing?" I smiled.
"We're good auntie. Mommy took Rose and me on a walk over to Grandpa Tunstalls earlier" he smiled with one of his front teeth gone.
"Sounds like fun" I smiled, as I gave him a brief hug before he ran over to Grandma Elizabeth.
"It's good to see Kora and you. How are you two doing with being tied up at home for hours on end?" she asked with a big playful smile.
"Oh shut up" I whined lightheartedly. "We finally understand what it's like"
"All right you two, how about we go take that nice walk," Elizabeth said joking.
We all gladly accepted, and we started on our way.
(Beka's P.O.V.)
~30 Minutes~
We finally arrived at the Rogue. My Rosto had no clue that the kids and I were out to visit him. It would be a fun surprise. With him working all the time, I never got to see my baby anymore, and just lay in heaven with him.
I opened the doors for my Mom, Daniel, Aniki, and Kora since I had my spare key with me.
"Kora and Aniki go in Rosto's office and wait. I'll have Jack come and visit along with my hubby" I smiled from ear to ear as I looked down at my beautiful daughter and my handsome son.
The girls nodded their heads in agreement; mom held Daniel and I carried Rose as we walked out of the room.
I stopped my husband was on his throne talking to some of the towns people. It made me swell with pride. He is such a Gentlemen and he will always be mine.
I walked right up to his throne, as mom followed. I waited for him to finish talking before mom set Daniel down so he could go run to his father.
"Daddy" Daniel shouted.
Everyone looked around and smiled as they saw our son run to his father.
"Hey buddy. Where's mommy?" Rosto smiled, as he hugged our son.
"Hey baby" I smiled, as I walked over to him, and gave him a kiss on the lips.
All the guys in the Rogue cat whistled which made me smile widely as I pulled away from kissing my husband.
"Enough all ready. Just remember she's mine" he replied back playfully as he got off his throne, and walked us into his office.
"Hey Rosto" Aniki and Kora chimed together as they saw us enter the room.
"Hey. What are you guys doing here?" He asked happily, as he hugged his mom.
"Well Beka stopped over for a visit, and we decided to walk down here. Your father wants me to see if the kids, Beka and you can come over for dinner tonight?" mom asked with a smile spread across her face.
I smiled at my husband, looking at him in hope.
"I don't see why not. I'll shut the Rogue down early tonight. I'll be right back, I'm going to get Jack to let him know what's going on" he smiled, as he kissed my forehead on the way out.
"So after we hang out here for a little bit, lets go hang out with Clary and your father" Kora suggested.
"Sounds good. I haven't really hung out with those two in so long. We can stay there for an hour before we arrive back at the apartments" I smiled brightly, thinking how I would get to hang out with my father and my best friend Clary.
My husband walked in a few moments later. "The Rogue will close down in two hours. Jack and I will meet you girls up at the apartments ten minutes later. Does that sound good?" he asked, as he wrapped his arm around me.
"Yep. We're going to hang out with Clary and Daddy for about an hour or so" I smiled up at him.
"Sounds good, let me walk you girls out" he smiled as he kissed our daughter Rose on the forehead.
He walked us to the back door and said goodbye, so he could finish his work. I gave him a kiss, and walked with the girls to my father's house again.
(Rosto's P.O.V.)
I starred in awe, as my beautiful wife, and two kids walked away with my mother and our two good friends. I always loved the fact that Beka surprised me out of the blue. I wish I didn't have to close the Rogue by myself so I could spend more time with my family. Aniki and Kora were expecting any day now with their own children, and they wouldn't be able to run the Rogue for at least three to four months. So that means late nights for me.
Beka is so good to me, I apologize time & time again, and she tells me not to worry about it. She is so understanding and loving about the whole thing. What more could a man ask for, besides being married and having two kids.
I walked back into my throne room to finish listening the townspeople's complaints and arguments. I would be here for two more hours so I minus well do a decent job. I chuckled to myself at how boring that seemed.
~Two hours later~
I closed up the Rogue, and was heading home with Jack when I decided that I needed to buy Beka and my mother some flowers to let them know how sorry I was for not spending more time with them. I let Jack know, and we went our separate ways.
So I paid for the flowers, and then finished walking up to my parent's house. When I walked in the door, I saw my father, my mother, my son, and my wife holding our baby girl. They were all sitting in the living room talking.
"Daddy" Daniel shouted with happiness as he ran to me.
I gave my son a quick hug, and then went to my mother and my wife to give them their flowers. They loved them. So after that we finally started dinner. It felt so good to have a dinner with my family. It had been months since I got to do this since I had to close the rogue.
Beka and my mother made pork, mashed potatoes, and green beans. It tasted excellent.
"Kids if you eat everything up grandma and I made cherry pie for desert" said lovingly but with authority.
"Yes mom" my kids were saying, as there was a loud knock on the door.
"I wonder who that could be?" my father asked, as I got up and answered the door.
When I opened the door there was Jack standing there looking beyond nervous? "What's up man?"
"Aniki's water just broke. Kora told me to have you guys come over," he rambled out.
That did it, before I knew what happened. The ladies put everything away, and all of us including my parents walked fastly to their place.
When we got there Kora was sitting down on a chair while Aniki was lying on the bed.
My guess is my mother or my lovely wife was going to have to be the mid wife.
(Beka's P.O.V.)
"Ah good you guys are here" Kora stated with a sigh.
"What can we do to help?" I asked knowing how much pain Aniki was in.
"You are going to have to be the midwife since I can't help at all. I'll tell you what to do, and you follow the instructions. Is that okay?" she asked with hope.
"Of course" I smiled happy to help my good friend out.
So all the guys but Jack went out in the hallway and waited. I washed my hands and then walked over to them.
"Beka, first I need you to help Aniki change into a night gown," Kora stated instructionally.
So my mother in-law helped me grab one of her night gown's and I sat Aniki up as a I helped her change.
Once that was done I looked at Kora for more instructions.
"Next you need to have one of the guys get a big bag of ice, so she can chew on that as she is doing her la-ma's breathing."
I had Jack run out in the hall to tell Rosto to go get a big bag of ice. He ran back in a few minutes later letting me know that my husband would be back in ten minutes with a bag of ice for Aniki to chew on. I nodded my head in acknowledgement.
"Aniki, you need to take deep breaths in and out. You will be able to give birth in an hour or two" Kora said, as she used her magic to see when and how long it would be.
Aniki just nodded her head in agreement, and was trying to get through all the contractions. A few moments later my lovely husband walked in with the ice. I gave him a kiss in thanks, and then sent him back out of the room.
~1 hour later~
"Push again, the head is all ready out" I positively said, as she wanted to stop.
She gave me one more push, and then the baby was out.
"Congrats you two, you have a little boy" My mother n law and I said at the same time.
Aniki and Jack sat there with happiness as they looked at there little bundle of joy.
"What are you going to name him?" I asked excitedly as I bathed her son.
"Oh Aniki, you should name him Benjamin like we talked about since we were teenagers" Kora said happily. If she was able to jump up and down at this moment in time she probably would.
"I want that to be his middle name Kora. How about Corey Benjamin Doyle?" Aniki asked Jack with all the love in the world as she held her newborn son.
"It sounds good to me" he said as he kissed his fiancée on the head, and then held his son.
"Aww so cute" Kora was saying with happiness before a scream came out of her mouth. My mother n law and I ran over to her.
"Kora what's wrong?" I asked worried.
"I think my water just broke. Go get Eskren" She said squeezing my hand hard. Jack ran out into the hallway to go get his good friend.
