Firstly so sorry for not updating sooner, it's been crazy here and my writing has just dried up, nothing has been coming to me. It's ages to finish this chapter so I'm hoping that I can get back into this story.

Esme POV

The full force of what happened yesterday really hit Carlisle hard. I think I'm still in a bit of shock myself. Today was going to be interesting, as we have to go to give our statement, then back off to court to see if I need to testify again. It was awful. I felt like I was being attacked for not knowing the answers. I know that is what they have to do, they have to make out that it is possible someone else made the phone call but really, do they have to do it that way.

I let Carlisle sleep a bit longer, it was just after 7am. I went downstairs to start coffee and breakfast. I'm glad he has this week off he needs it. I got out eggs, bread and butter. I thought a light breakfast would be best.

I had just walked into our bedroom with breakfast, coffee and juice when Carlisle came out of the bathroom.

"Your awake, how'd you sleep honey." I put the breakfast on the bed and sat on his side of the bed and pulled him between my legs and kissed his chest. "Good morning."

His hands run through my hair, then cup my face. "I'm ok, are you ok, I was a little rough last night."

I take his hands in mine. "Honey, I'm fine. If you hurt me I would have told you." I kissed his hands. "Now, breakfast come on." We climbed back into bed and enjoyed it. After we showered and dressed we made our way to the police station. We gave our statement and we were back at the court. I was then told I may need to give evidence again. My heart dropped. Carlisle squeezed my hand.

The next few days were spent in court, listening to the case. I wasn't called again. Thank goodness, I don't think I could go through that again. It was nice to have Carlisle around for a while before he went back to work.

McCarthy didn't need surgery, they just cleaned and stitched up the wound. They only kept him in one night. Apparently he is a lousy patient. He wanted to come back to work the next day but Carlisle told him in that he was not to come back for at least 2 weeks and only then when he could fire a gun without it hurting. He was not happy.

The trial dragged on for another 5 weeks. Going over schedule time by 1 week. In the end the Ricci family were found guilty of murder, human trafficking and sex crimes. Each member was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. As for the rest of the Ricci family they were all under surveillance, one foot wrong and they would be brought up on changers.

The people that shot at us outside the court were from the Ricci family. Grandsons. They were due to sentenced next week. Hopefully they would plead guilty so no trial would be needed.

Carlisle was working harder than ever. I haven't seen him in 3 days. I managed to grab lunch with him yesterday but that's it. He's due to have 4 days off starting tomorrow.

I had been feeling a little off recently, tired more than usual even when I'm getting 8 hours a night. I haven't had my period either so I picked up a pregnancy test yesterday I'm planning on checking tomorrow morning. I'm not hopeful I think it must be the stress of everything. I'm not telling Carlisle as I don't want to get his hopes up.

Carlisle wasn't home when I went to bed, but he text me telling me he will be home by midnight. He told me not to wait up. I couldn't if I tried. I was in bed by 8.30pm and I think I nodded off by 9pm. I didn't even feel Carlisle get into bed. As I said I've been tired.

The next morning I was up and peeing on the stick to see. I never knew 5 minutes could fell like a lifetime. Carlisle was still fast asleep. After an agonising 5 minutes I looked at the stick and I saw two pink lines. I was in shock. I'm pregnant. I wanted to scream. But I didn't. Instead I got back into bed, laid down and snuggled into Carlisles arms.

"Honey, I've got something to show you." I whispered as I kissed him, I trailed kissed down his neck to his chest. "I know your tired but I need to tell you." I kissed and swirled my tongue round his nipple.

"Mmmmmmm Es I could get use to this wake up call, what's got you in such a good mood this morning?" He looked down at me but his eyes were half open.

I placed the test in front of his eyes. "What am I looking at here it's too early and I'm not awake fully yet." He rubbed his eyes. I let him focus on it for a minute. When he realised what it was he looked at me with a big grin on his face.

"Really." I just nodded. "Oh Es." He kissed me so hard on the lips I might have bruises. Then he hugged me with tightly. "Oh my god I'm going to be a dad. How are feeling, have you had any morning sickness."

"I feel fine honey." I cupped his face. "I just feel really tired all the time. I've got to get the pregnancy confirmed by the doctor but yeah, I'm good." We didn't get out of bed for the rest of the day, just cuddling and talking.

It was the following week I was able to get to the doctors, they did a blood test and yes I was definitely pregnant.

"I want to do a scan early just to confirm and see how many weeks you are and to make sure everything is going well." Dr Franco informed me. "Now you will see your midwife in the next couple of weeks and they will take over care from here, unless there is any concerns."

"Thank you Dr Franco." I walked out of her office with a big smile on my face.

I kept myself busy the rest of the day, Carlisle text me asking for details and I told him I would tell him when he's home. I had just put dinner in the oven when Carlisle came through the door. He walked straight over to me and grabbed me wrapping his arms round me and kissing my neck.

"So tell me, are you?" He was kissing behind my ear to my shoulder.

"Yes, I'm about 5 weeks along, you know when you got all cave man on me after the shooting outside the court." I turned in him arms. I then kissed him.

"Oh," was all he said. He had a shocked look on his face.

"She said I need a scan just to confirm everything, so I was hoping to book it for when your off." I took hold of his hands and kissed his knuckles.

"Yes that would be great love. I'm off Wednesday and Thursday of next week."

"Ok I will ring and get a appointment for then if I can. Right dinner will be ready in an half hour." He kissed me as his hands started to wander up my front to my breasts.

"Hey not now as I know how this ends and dinner will be ruined." That didn't stop him, he just moved his hands down to my butt.

"I only want a little taste." He kissed me again, going down my neck. He then picked me up and placed my on the worktop. I shrieked.

"Carlisle what are you doing." He kept moving down my body until he got to my skirt.

"I told you I want a taste." He then pushed my skirt up, pushed my thighs apart and started to kiss my lady parts.

"Oh god, that's not fair Carlisle." My eyes fluttered closed as my head fell back. My hands found Carlisle hair. He moved my panties out the way and started to use his tongue. He then pulled me to the edge of the counter, put my legs over his shoulders and went to town.

"Yes oh god, yes." My legs were trembling on his shoulders. "Yes I'm cuming , yes, yes." I just screamed out his name. He then rested his head on my thighs just kissing them giving me time to come down from my high. He then put my legs down and rested his head on my stomach. "I told you I wanted a taste and dam woman you taste good." I could see his lips shining with me. He sat up kissed me, it was very odd tasting myself on his lips.

"Now I'm going for a shower, have dinner then have you again." With that he walked out the kitchen and up to our room. I was left on the kitchen counter in shock. What had just come over my husband. I turned the oven off it would carry on cooking anyway, went to find him. As I walked into the bathroom, I could make out his naked form in the shower. Over the years he had added to his tattoos. He finally got his Rod of Asclepius but he got it down his back along his spine and oh god it was sexy. He also go my name and the date we got married over his heart.

I stripped off my clothes and opened the shower door. "What the hell." Carlisle turned to look at who had opened the door. "Es what are you doing?"

"What does it look like, I'm taking a shower with my husband and saving water at the same time. The look on your face when I opened the door, who did you think it was?" I was laughing now.

"Oh laugh it up women, now come here." He pulled my hand so I was facing him and also under the shower. "We haven't had sex in here for a while." He said as he kissed his way down my body, paying particular attention to my breasts and nipples.

"Oh yes my love." I had my hands in his hair as he nibbled and sucked at my breasts. He then grabbed my backside and lifted me up so I was flat against the shower wall. I still had my hands in his hair I loved running my hands through is hair, I wrapped my legs around his waist, I felt him use a hand to position himself at my entrance and then entered me with long thrust. We both cried out our pleasure. He thrusted into me like a piston, his head in between my breasts, mumbling that he loves me. My second orgasm was upon me before I new it. Carlisle was not far behind me. "God I love you Esme."

"As I love you Carlisle." Once we had both calmed down slightly, we washed each other, got out and wrapped ourselves in bathrobes.

"How about dinner now. I'm starving." Carlisle said as he opened the bedroom door.

"I'm not surprised your hungry, I'll just go dish it up." We both made our way downstairs, Carlisle got us both a drink, water for me and a beer for himself. Once we were both sitting down eating.

"I can't believe your pregnant, it's like wow. You know there are some foods that you can't eat right." Carlisle was going all doctor on me. I had to laugh.

"Yes I know, I was given a pack at the doctors to read. It has all the dos and don'ts. It also had anti natal classes in there and which ones we should take. I never realised there was so much to consider." I was making me dizzy.

"Well we will get through it together. I will get paternity leave and I'm sure your mom and dad will help out if I can't." He's planning way ahead, but it's nice that he is so excited. As we finished dinner we put the dishes in the sink then made our way back to bed, we spooned in bed and Carlisle put his hands over my stomach as we fell asleep.

Again sorry it was late, hope this made up for it being late.
