Chapter 21
Henry's Pov)
I got off the bus at 3:30. Roland's mom picked him up today, so I was by myself. I got my key and unlocked the door. I walked inside locking it behind me. It was quiet. Nothing was heard. I put my bag down. "Mom?" I ask loudly. "Robin?" I was slightly confused. Normally, she tells me if she won't be home. I went upstairs to look. I go to her bedroom and open the door. I laughed a little. She was knocked out in Robin's chest, robin's head tilted to the side, and a book fallen open on his stomach. I walked in quietly. I went to Robin and shook his arm a little. "Robin...Robin..." I say softly.
He stirs a bit then opens his eyes. "Henry what are you doing home so early?" He asks.
Henry laughs a little. "Robin, it's 3:30."
"Oh crap. We have been sleeping since 10:30 this morning" he says moving the book.
"Wow, so you got nothing done in Brooklyn's room today." I say laughing.
"No, I definitely didn't." He says.
"Alright, well I'm going do homework. You should probably get her to eat something." I say.
"Yes, I should." He says smiling.
I walk out of the room, grab a water, and sit at the kitchen table and start homework.
Robin's Pov)
I can't believe we slept that long. I looked down at Regina who was still dead asleep on my chest. I smiled, but I had to wake her up.
"Regina...babe. You gotta wake up. Regina." I say moving hair out of her face. "Regina." I say shaking her a little.
She stirs and then wakes up. "What time is it?" She groans.
"It's 3:30, love." I say smiling at her.
"We slept that long?" She asks. "Ugh, I had stuff at work to do. I was going to go in for noon. That puts me behind." She says sighing.
"Babe, it's okay. You have time. How about I come with you and we can go right now. I'll sit with you while you work." I say smiling. "Then maybe you'll let me take you to dinner?"
"Hmmm, you're too cute to say no to." She says smiling.
"Good." I say smiling. I kiss her head. "Go get ready."
We get to her office around 4 and we don't leave till 6:30. She looks tired, but I'm hoping she still wanted to go eat. I had a surprise for her at Granny's.
"Okay, babe. I am done. We are still going eat right?" She asks walking up to me.
"We are babe." I say hugging her. "You are so cute." I say smiling.
She laughed. "No I'm not. I have this big round belly and I gained weight." She said.
"You're pregnant and you're glowing. You already look like a mommy. Do you know how hard it is to hug you." He says laughing. "Brooklyn is going to be a healthy little girl."
"Healthy and fat. I'm huge." She says looking down.
"Chubby babies are cute." He says smiling. "Come on, let's go get you some food." I say grabbing her hand.
We walk up to Granny's and she stops me. She turns around. "You did not throw me a party." She says.
"Actually, no I didn't. Mary-Margaret insisted on throwing you a baby shower. I told her that we were okay, but she did it anyway." I say.
"Ugh, I'm tired Robin. I just wanted to eat then leave." She says letting her head fall on my chest.
"I know, sweetheart. I'm sorry." I rub her back a little then thought of an idea. "How about we go in, you eat, then I'll ask David to bring the gifts to the house and you can open them later."
"But I didn't want people to be mad that I don't stay." She says against my chest.
"Regina, they have already been here an hour. They won't mind trust me. We can invite everyone to the house Sunday, I'll cook and we can invite everyone over for a barbecue. How does that sound?" I ask.
"Sounds good. But who is going to tell them?" She asks. "I'll do it. You linger out her for a few minutes then I'll tell them." I say smiling. I kiss her forehead and walk inside.
"Robin! Where is Regina?" Mary-Margaret asks.
"She is on her way, but she is exhausted. So, I was hoping we could move this party to the house Sunday. I'll cook and we can hold the party then." He says.
"Oh yeah I completely understand. Take a plate to her and tell her to go straight home." She says walking away. I smile and follow her. She hands me 2 plates and sends me out the door.
"What happened?" Regina asks.
"We have a party on Sunday." I say happily.
"You're the best." She says kissing my cheek.
"No, that's you. Let's get you home to eat." I say smiling.
After we ate, she laid on the sofa. She was so funny. She took off her pants and her bra. "It's hot as shit in this house. Ugh." She groans sitting carefully on the sofa. I walk in behind her with her water bottle. "Do you want to lower the temperature?" I ask handing her the bottle.
"Yes." She says whining. It was just so funny and she was so cute with her little round belly. Okay it wasn't little, but she was still adorable. I walk to the air and lower it. It kicks on and I walk back to her.
She is laying on the sofa with her shirt lifted to right under her breasts. She had one arm flung over her eyes and the other gripping the cold water bottle. I lean over the back of the sofa. "Babe, are you okay?" I ask trying not to laugh. She hummed a yes. Then I noticed she was wearing a thong. A black lace one. "Babe, why are you wearing a thong?" I ask curiously.
"Because these are thin and cool and I'm constantly sweating." She says. She stays quiet a few more seconds then looks at me. "Wanna take a shower?" She asks raising an eyebrow.
"Is Henry at Emma's?" I ask. She nods and I smirked. "Let's go then."
"Wait you gotta help me up." She says struggling to sit up. I laugh a little. I walk around and grab her hands. She lifts to her feet and wobbles a little. "Woah." She says laughing. "Ugh this sucks."
"One month babe. Then you will get to hold your princess." I say rubbing her cheek.
"I know. I'm just tired of being pregnant." She says sighing. "Can I have a back rub?" She asks.
"Absolutely. Let's head upstairs." I say pulling her behind me. We get in the shower, but didn't shower. We were talking, laughing, and kissing while our hands explored each other's bodies. We hadn't fooled around since the beginning of her pregnancy. So, it was fun just kissing her, touching her, and seeing her smile that made her seemed relaxed.
We were in the shower long enough for the water to turn cold. She pulled away from my lips. "That feels good." She says tilting her head back into the water.
"How about I wash your hair." I say smiling.
She grabs her shampoo and hands it to me. "You never have to ask." She says smiling.
I wash her hair and massage her head. She was enjoying it because she was moaning. She turned around so I could rinse it out. I rinsed it then bathed her. She had her head leaned back against my shoulder and started falling asleep. "Babe, you have to stay awake. I don't want you to fall." I say. She lifts her head and I hurry up.
Within 10 minutes, she was in one of my t-shirts and lying in bed. I filled her water bottle and put it on her nightstand. "Goodnight sweetheart." I say softly kissing her temple.
"Goodnight babe and thanks for tonight it was very relaxing and fun." She leans up kisses my lips then lays back down.
"You're welcome. Get some sleep." I say smiling. She closes her eyes and within minutes is sleeping soundly.
