Chapter 12

Waking up the next morning, we hear the little cries coming from the monitor on the nightstand. "I got him momma." Creeper says. "I'll get his bottle." I say. I get his bottle and take it to the nursery and see Creeper talking to Lex while changing his diaper and Lex is just looking at him. "There you go little man. Daddy got that ass clean didn't we?" he asks and I can't help but smile. He turns to see me and I have the bottle in my hand. "You want to feed him and I'll start breakfast." I say. "Let's take the kid and go out to breakfast." he says. "I'll get dressed." I tell him before getting dressed. I get Lex ready as he gets dressed and we head out in my car to the diner. Sitting in one of the booths, I am on one side and Creeper, carrying the carrier, puts Lex on his side. The waitress comes over and says "He is so precious. How old is he?" I smile and say "He's a month old." She looks at me and says "Well, you have a beautiful little family." I smile at her and say "I do don't I?"

After eating, we head to the clubhouse so that Creeper can work. I am sitting on one of the couches with Letti and Lex when Taza comes over. "You look happy Mija." he says. "I am happy. Taza I don't think I've ever been this happy." I tell him and he smiles. "You know, I was talking to Creeper a little while ago and all he talked about was you and Lex. He's proud of his little family." he tells me. "Then he's going to be really proud." I tell them and they look at me confused. "I found out two days ago that I'm seven weeks pregnant." I tell them. "You haven't told him yet?" Letti asks. "No. I was going to but then everything happened with Lex and we were getting him settled in. Thought I'd do it when everyone gets off work and tell everyone at once." I tell them. "Letti, I want you to be holding Lex when I tell them because he's going to freak." I tell her and she says "I got little dude."

After everyone is done with work for the day they all come in for a beer. I hand Lex to Letti and Creeper pulls me close and kisses me. "I need to get everyone together." I tell Creeper and he looks at me confused. "Trust me." I tell him. "Hey everybody. My Old Lady needs all of us together." he says and everyone turns their attention to me. "You all know that we adopted Lex and I am so thankful for our little boy but there is something that I need to let you all know." I say and then I look at Creeper. "I'm pregnant." I say and Creeper's eyes go wide and he picks me up, crashing his lips with mine and says "When did you find out?" he asks. "The day before we got Lex but didn't get a chance to tell you before we found out about him." I say. "How far along are you?" Bishop asks. "Seven weeks." I say and Creeper kisses me one more time. Taking Lex from Letti he says "You hear that little man? You're gonna be a big brother." I look at my husband and our son and can't help but love him more. He puts one arm around me and pulls me close before kissing my lips softly. "Big family babe." he says. "Huge family." I say and we both start laughing. Lex starts crying so I take him and he snuggles into me and I can't help but smile. We have our little family.

Sitting at home that night, I have given Lex a bath and put him to bed and we are laying in bed and his hand is on my stomach. "I can't believe you're pregnant." he says. "I know and I know we just adopted Lex and he's still so little but…" I start rambling but he cuts me off. "We got it. I promise. We got this mama." he tells me and I kiss him softly before snuggling into him and falling asleep.
