But one thing for sure he wanted to be there every step of the way right now her work was in Miami. And he was flying out to see her this weekend he still remember the day he found out was the best day of his life.

Flashback

She sat in the restaurant nervously tapping her foot on the floor waiting for him to come as she looked down at her watch. Rotating her neck not knowing what to expect they haven't even talked about that much less even thought about it.

But here they were and to top it off his mom and Aunt were coming her cousin was right she needed to g set her hormones in check because this man just caught her slipping. Sighing she didn't even have to turn around to know he was coming she felt it in her skin"hi pa ,hello Mama Ashford,Ms. Stella sorry to be crashing your lunch"Elle says.

As Curtis kissed her on the cheek"why didn't you just come by the house" Curtis says with a grin, I was hungry you know and I had a meeting with Dr. Warner" she answered.

"Baby you don't have to apologize your family "Henrietta replies, yeah you can call me Aunt Stella you know" Stella says. Elle smiled and nodded feeling overwhelmed but all Curtis could do was smile he was happy they liked her as much as he did, hey let me get me another chair" Curtis says.

When Elle jumped up "I will go with you be right back" she says as he took her hand, you didn't have to babe" he said. " I know but I really need to talk to you really quick before we get back to the table" Elle says as he flags down the hostess, okay what's on your mind baby girl" he says.

Just as she was about to speak "Curtis Ashford what's up man" the man says, oh hey Jay what's bro" Curtis says greetings the man with a high five as Elle sighs. "I figured that was you man my mom says you got married congratulations man about time what's it been 5 years or something "he said, oh I didn't marry Candace this is my wife Elena Ashford " he responds.

The guy looked shocked" I'm sorry I'm shocked I was sure that woman would have had dragged you down the aisle kicking and screaming if she could, it's nice to meet you Elena" he says with a wink. "Baby this is Jerome, Tommy, myself and him grew up together he lives in North Carolina now is it" Curtis says. "Yea I work for the arenas as an engineer"Jerome replies, hi it's nice to meet you" Elle says politely hoping they would hurry up this mini reunion they were having.

"Hey can you bring another chair to the table, oh moms and Aunt Stella is over there come" he says to the hostess then leading him back to the table.

Not noticing that Elle groaned then following them where they had another conversation touching Curtis arm"Pa I need to talk to you in private like now"she says, one second baby I promise ;you can get her scotch on the rocks with two white wine spritzers" he says. "Curtis it's fine I have a drink" she insists as Jerome talked to Henrietta and Stella , how's the family and everything I know your mom moved with your sister to Delaware"Curtis says.

Rolling her eyes she was going to snap" Curtis, Curtis, CURTIS COÑO MALDITO HOMBRE I'm pregnant" Elle said with a shrug. As the waitress brought over the drinks which he took and downed"I got your attention Now" she says with a raised eyebrow.

"I will talk to you soon Curtis,Mama Ashford,Auntie"Jerome says nodding before leaving. While all eyes were on Elle waiting for Curtis's reaction" you mean like a baby, baby" Curtis asked, No a baby Giraffe Curtis yes a human baby. You know what whatever I will talk to you later" she says getting up when he grabbed her hand.

Stopping her" Wait are you sure" he says turning her to face him, yes Curtis I'm a doctor,my sister is a doctor so is my mother. So Yes I'm sure and I know we haven't talked about this but here we are" Elle says crossing her arms. Just as he pulled her into his arms"okay do we know anything how long is the test legit" he says.

Glancing over at him"I Took several test one with a gun to my head long story but I'm sure. It's why I met with Dr. Warner to see if he can see us discreetly without your ex's brother in my business"she says. Shaking his head before yanking her towards him and kissing her" our business my baby is having a baby wow" he said with a huge smile on his face.

As his mom and aunt clapped before congratulating them he was still on cloud nine as they came into his apartment. Taking of her coat and her boots watching him in awe just the way he handled all of it. All he could do was stare "I still can't believe it there two of them in there. My mom and my auntie are going to freak twins my God I love you.

I want this Elle you me and them I know your scared but don't be it's you and me. And I know things are happening fast but I'm not going anywhere. I was thinking we need to help Sam find her baby daddy he should be here for this you know" Curtis says.

"Oh I didn't tell you her and Emy did try to find him she was told he's gone by his neighbors so it was nothing she could do he's gone" she says helping him take his stuff of as he continued to stare at the sonogram picture. "Babe I'm a cop and a damn good one at that but tonight is about us" he replied. Pulling her into his arms"I am a little nervous we just kinda jumped in with no reservations and i trust you wholeheartedly.

And that in itself scares me" she replies wrapping her arms around his neck gazing into her eyes. " Guess what" he says picking her up from her behind" What?" She asked. Walking to the couch" I'm not going anywhere" Curtis replied capturing her lips with his.

Then pulling her sweater over her head then removing his as well until they had nothing else on. Running her hands over his face"I love you" Elena said, I love you too he answers. Before entering as she gasped into his mouth and he hissed gripping each other with each stroke of his rod.

Lost in a world that was all of their own lost in each other as they often did. Not even hearing the knocking at the door as he picked her up still holding her to him. As she began ride faster chasing her end"shitt, babe stop fuck I'm going to fucking"Curtis says.

Flipping her over then pounding into her" OOOOH FUCK, FUCK, FUCK,Yes, Yesssss" Elle shouted as they bother erupted. Spilling his seed inside her womb"oh shit babe im sorry did I hurt you oh god I did I hurt the babies" he says. WHAT THE FUCK! Candace shouted from behind them making them both turn around.

Elle never budge as Curtis grabbed the blanket to cover her and him up as Candace shook her head. "I can't believe this is happening damn you move fast" she says while Curtis put his boxers on. "I can't believe y'all barged into my house uninvited" he said standing up.

Passing Elena his shirt as she shook her head" why am I going to put that on when you and I both know its going to come back off. Save you and I the hassle" she says with shrug laying back on the couch"you weren't answering our calls and In have the keys" Jordan said.

Running his hands over his face"first of all i don't have to answer your calls Candace. And second I was busy with My wife and Lastly snatching the keys from Jordan these are for emergencies only" he said pissed. "SHE'S USING YOU CURTIS FOR YOUR CONNECTION AS A COP HER FRIEND IS A DRUG DISTRIBUTOR.

AND YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE IT NOW THIS BITCH IS PREGNANT WHICH IM SURE SHE WAS PREGNANT ALL ALONG. WITH THE DEALERS BABY AND PASSING IT OFF AS YOURS DON'T LET HER PLAY YOU WE ALL CAN SEE IT BUT YOU. IT MAKE SENSE NOW WITH THIS QUICKY WEDDING AND EVERYTHING" Candace says.

"First of all I initiated getting married and second which isn't your business she's six weeks pregnant. Now you will not disrespect my wife again Candace we are over we've been over I am going to make myself perfectly clear. To the both of you we her and I got married because it felt right for us it was in the moment and spontaneous.

It was right I want to be with her because I want her I don't have to pretend to. I with her because she makes me feel alive that's was always your problem. That it had to be the way you wanted all the time and this is more of the same. Thinking she's using me because you always no more then everyone else and you don't.

You don't know Elena to make judgments on her character neither one of you do. And I guess who does I do"Curtis says raising his hand, so now y'all both can get out my house. Jordan I already told you that if you can't respect my decisions then I don't want you in my life or my children's lives good bye"he said .

Slamming the door behind them" you okay" Elle asked as he walked over to her" yeah you"he says. When she smiled" that was hot" she says making him laugh" oh yeah now where were we"Curtis said.

And that was two months ago she was almost for months and her stomach was huge. But he would never tell her that he loved all the changes they did a video message daily bit was difficult. Not being able to hold her in his arms like he wanted to or just listen to her breath.

They were dealing with it her parents helped alot too with the long distance relationship. As he walked off the elevator to her passing him "I will get back to you soon I promise love" Elle says hastily. When he turned to Ms. Ana "what's going on" he asked, she looked at him solemnly "Sam their going to deliver he babies now so she is going to do her job.

I have to go and help so I need you to call the house and they will call her mom"Ana says hugging him then walking away as well. When he took out his phone called the house "hey pops they need everyone down here Sam is having the babies. Wait what, when, what happen shit okay then let me know what I can do" Curtis says dropping in the chair.

Not noticing the man and the teenage boy sitting on the other side from him. Twenty minutes later the family rushed in"Curtis hey what's up" Olly asked, I don't know anything yet they haven't come out yet baby gir..." was all he got out when he saw his wife. " Nena" Manolo says as they all rushed towards her I...I...I... she" Elena stammered out before breaking down in tears.

In Curtis arms sobbing uncontrollably as her father kissed her on top of her head before walking away. Leaving everyone fearing the worst just then Karina came in with Her son's and Bianca. They looked around with Bianca's eyes landing on Elle when she began to shake her head.

"NO, NO, NO" the teenager said vehemently shaking her her before running to the door banging in it. " MOM, MOMMY YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME NOW YOU PROMISED, YOU PROMISED" she says. As the tears began streaming down her face getting Elle's attention. Kat and Olly took her in their arms"shush Chipmunk"she said running her hands through the girls hair.

"Titi she promised" Bianca said that's when Julian put his hand on her shoulder." Your mom is going to be okay she's bad ass"he says making her look up at him, what are you doing here" she asked. Just then Emelda came out trying to keep her emotions in check" Umm delivered both babies but they need a transfusion so please if you can help do so"

That's when Bobby got up from sitting next to Lana knowing how important they were to her. "I will help if i can these little people share my birthday" he said, she shook her head" what about my mom" Bianca asked." Mami is still working on her she isn't giving up so neither are we Nena your up" Emy says.

Who kissed Bianca on her head " I'm going to take care of your baby brothers I need you to stay strong" Elle said with a wink then leaving. Just as Emelda slid to the floor with her hands in her hair as another nurse lead the people who wanted to help away. Karina came and sat next to her cousin who rest her head on her shoulder.

Faith is unseen but felt,

Faith is strength when we feel we have none,

Faith is hope when all seems lost
