Lexi-
Even though I wasn't doing anything but watching. I was feeling overwhelmed. Watching as the girls were fixing up the backyard. They said not to move, so I didn't.
"Ok everything is set up. We're gonna go upstairs and get dressed", Brie said.
"Ok, I'll just wait here", I told her.
She went into the house, along with Eva. I sighed. A pair of hands rubbed my shoulders. I rolled my head back and moaned knowing the feel of those hand.
"How are you doing beautiful?", Dean asked.
"My head is spinning. This is too much", I said to him.
He stopped and kneeled down in front of me, taking my hands in his.
"I know, but your family really wants to do this for you. At least your gonna be partying, the guys and I are going to baby school", he said.
I giggled.
"I would rather go to that than be here getting rubbed on", I rolled my eyes.
Dean-
She was almost eight months. Roman had let me in on a couple of things. This was them, that last few months he said she wasn't going to want to have sex at all, so don't even try. Walking is a must, keep her moving even though she'll get mad. Any little thing including the weather will piss her off, you'll be cold she'll be hot. Do anything and everything to make her comfortable even if you're not. She didn't mind when people rubbed her belly before, now its a keep your hands to yourself mood.
The only times I touched her belly was when she put my hand there. He also said to avoid the words, big, huge, whale, large, well just say any word that would mean fat to her. Demon pillow was still in our lives.
"Dean", she said.
"Yeah baby?", I asked.
"Try to get along with my brother. Please", she said.
"If he pisses me off", I stopped when I saw the look on her face.
She was mad. Crap.
"Ok, for you. I will", I said.
"No your not", she said, her tone angry.
"Babe, I'm sorry", I said.
I looked down at her hands. Rubbing my thumb on the top of her hand.
"No, I am. I'm sorry. Its just, I'm so tired and uncomfortable. All these people, makes me nervous and you're not going to be here to help me", she said.
She was on the verge of tears. I wanted to hug her but I didn't want to get my head ripped off.
"Dude what did you do?", Seth asked.
He walked over and hugged her. She hugged him back. I sighed.
"I'm sorry", was all I could think to say.
He let her go.
"You ok sweetheart? Want me to kick his ass?", he asked her.
"No its ok", she wiped her tears.
"Can I hug you?", I asked low.
She nodded. I took her in my arms, hugging her.
"Can I?", I held my hand over her belly.
She nodded, tucking a piece of her hair behind her ear. Placing both my hands on her. Smiling.
"She kicked", I said excited.
"She knows its her daddy's hands", she said.
"How? She can't see me", I said low.
"My heart", she said.
I looked up at her.
"Whenever I'm with you my heart races, your smile, your eyes. The way I feel, she feels it too. She knows", she said.
I smiled at her. Leaning down to press her lips with mine. Kissing her soft and slow. I leaned my forehead against hers.
"God I love you beautiful. I can't wait till I can make sweet love to you again", I bit my lip.
"Me too, I miss you", she whispered.
"Fuck", I mumbled.
"I'm sorry", she said.
I pulled away from her and stuck my hand down my pants as she giggled at me. I glared at her only making her giggle more.
"Dude", Seth said.
Roman and her brothers, along with Bryan were watching as I still had my hand down my pants. I finished adjusting myself, taking my hand out.
"What? You guys act like you've never had to fucking adjust yourselves", I said.
"Hey what did we talk about", she said.
"Right baby, I'm sorry, the language. I'm trying doll face", I said.
"I know", she said.
"You ready to go?", Roman asked.
"Yeah", I said.
I looked at her.
"We were gonna go to the bar after but I'll just tell them to come back here", I said.
"No baby you should enjoy yourself too", she said, placing her hands on my chest.
I moaned into her ear.
"Doll you don't know how fucking bad I want to fuck you now", I said into her ear.
She pushed me lightly.
"Go", she said.
"Fine", I said, raising my hands and walking backwards towards the guys.
I winked at her before walking out. I saw Brie with Lexi's mom.
"Hey Brie, take care of my girls. If something happens call me, please. Also watch how many people surround her, she's feeling a little dizzy already. I don't want her to feel overwhelmed", I said.
Brie placed a hand on my shoulder.
"I know Dean. She'll be fine, I along with Nikki, Riley, and Eva will not leave her side. I promise", she said.
"I know, I just worry", I said.
"Its ok. She will be safe here. She also has no clue about your surprise", she said to me.
"Good. I hope it works out", I said.
Roman patted my other shoulder.
"Lets go man", he said.
We jumped into my truck and went to the class. When we got there and entering the room, there were three other men there. They gave us a nod and we returned the gesture. Three other men walked into the room with babies, real babies.
"That's alive", I said to Roman.
"Yes Dean it is. Its called a baby", he said sarcastically.
"Please don't say we have to hold it. Please don't say we have to hold it", Seth was whispering.
"Ok, I'm Todd and this is my son Jay, he's one", Todd said.
"I'm Charlie, this is my son August, he's eight months", said Charlie.
"And I'm Kevin, this is my daughter Bailey, she's six months", Kevin said.
"We are here to help you learn how to take on a father role. To help your wife out so she can take a break while you watch your little one", Todd said.
"So how many of you have held a baby before?", Kevin asked.
Roman, Andrew, Bryan, and Jason lifted their hands, including the three other men. Crap, I said mentally. Kevin nodded, then looked over to me and Seth.
"You've never held a baby?", he asked us.
"Nope. I would usually try to avoid them", I said, hands stuffed into my pockets.
"Don't have the time", Seth said.
The guy laughed. Walking over to us with his little girl. I watched the little thing in his arms wiggle.
"You made it angry", I said.
"Does it bite?", Seth asked, eyeing the little baby.
We could hear Roman and the other guys laugh.
"You're both gonna be fathers?", he asked.
"Just him. I'm gonna be the godfather", Seth said.
"Well then, here", Kevin said, holding out his little girl.
"Woah, dude. Give me a second, um, what if I drop her? I don't want to break your baby", I said nervous.
"Take her", he said more stern.
The little baby smiled and looked at me. I swallowed hard.
"Ok", I mumbled.
I took her from him, still holding her out at arm's length.
"Ok, take her back now. I did it", I said to Kevin.
"Nope. Pull her in", he said.
I looked at him like he was crazy. She yawned.
"Here, she's mad", I said.
"She's not mad Dean. That's what babies do. Here, hold her close", Roman said.
He came over, pushing my arms in. He helped me lay her in my arms.
"Kinda like when your protecting a football, support her head", Roman said.
I looked down at the little girl in my arms, her eyes closing as she snuggled into my arms. I could feel my shoulders relax. A flash from the corner of my eye. I looked up.
"Sending this to Lex", Seth said.
Todd came over, handing Seth his baby. Seth looked nervous as hell, Lexi's brother helped him.
"How do you know how to do this?", I asked her little brother.
"I have nephews remember", he said.
"Right. What about you Jason?", he looked surprised I asked him.
"Um, cousins", he said.
I nodded.
"Bryan?", I asked.
"Same, nephews and cousins. It looks like your comfortable now", he said.
"A little", I said.
The rest of the class they tought us to change a diaper, mentally I said not happening.
"Why can't I just let Lexi do the diaper duty? This stinks", I said to Roman.
He laughed. The baby I was changing made a noise, smiled and then started making farting noises.
"Like they say, you don't know what true love is till you wiped someone's ass", Roman said.
I rolled my eyes.
"The person who said that was a fucking idiot", I mumbled.
They showed us how to sooth the baby and rock them gently. How to wrap them in a blanket.
"I don't think this works", I said.
The baby I was holding was crying. I did everything the guy said, but it didn't work. He took him back and rocked him. After a while it was time to leave.
"Was that so hard?", Roman asked.
"Yes", I said.
"That was awesome, dude I'm so ready", Seth said excited.
I rolled my eyes.
Lexi-
The party wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Games, food, and great compliments.
"Ok, time for presents", Nikki said.
They pulled me over to a chair, where the gifts were set. Eva handing me one at a time. It was mostly clothes and diapers. Little dresses and shoes. Brie stood up and brought a tiny bag over to me.
"Who's this from?", I asked.
"Dean", she said.
She took my hand and stood me up. Moving over to Nikki.
"Open it girl", Eva said.
I put my hand inside and I pulled out a tiny wooden polished box. Looking at them with smiles on their faces. They knew. I bit my lip and opened it. Sitting there was a ring, not too big and not too small. I could feel tears ready to fall. A voice I knew well spoke behind me.
"Marry me darlin?", he asked.
I turned to find Dean on one knee, holding white roses in his hands, while he looked up at me. I bit my lip again. Tears finally falling. I nodded.
"Yes", I said softly.
He was holding his breath, letting it out when he heard me say yes. Jumping up, he hugged me tight. The girls squealed. He handed me the roses and he took the ring out of the box, setting it on my finger. He kissed me.
"I love you so much baby", he said.
"I love you too. How did you come up with this?", I asked him.
"Roman helped", he said.
"You did a good job on the ring", I said.
"I had help with that too", he said, shoving his hands into his pockets, acting a little shy about it.
Everyone hugged us and said congrats. I thanked Roman for helping Dean, he just winked at me.
Alone in our house now, Seth asleep in his room. Dean and I were outside in the backyard on the bench.
"I saw the picture Seth sent me", I said.
"Aw man", he said.
"You looked comfortable", I said.
"That baby wasn't as small as ours is going to be though. The guy Todd said just not to be nervous, babies can sense it", he said.
I put my hand on my belly.
"She's kicking?", he asked.
I nodded. He kissed my belly.
"Peanut, I can't wait to meet you. You're gonna be as beautiful as your mommy. I know it. You're gonna be as smart and sweet as her too. I can't wait to hold you, I learned a lot today", he told the baby.
I giggled at his excitement. He continued to talk to the baby. I brushed my fingers through his hair as he did. He kissed my belly one more time, then looked at me.
"You ready for vacation? Monday's your last Raw till after the baby", I said.
"I'm more than ready. I miss you when I have to go", he said.
I leaned over and kissed his cheek.
