Chapter 8
Waking up the next morning, I wake up in bed alone. I lay there for a few minutes and hear the shower shut off. A couple of minutes later, Angel walks in, wearing just a towel again. I look at him for a second before blushing and burying my face under the covers. He walks over and moves the covers and says "Good morning Princesa." before kissing me softly. "Morning." I whisper. Still cupping my chin, he says "You don't have to be embarrassed. I belong to you mi amor. I want you to be comfortable with me." he tells me. He kisses me again and starts slipping on his briefs and then his jeans. He moves to the closet to get a flannel and I say "The green one. Please?" He looks at me and arches a brow. "I like that one on you." I tell him. He smiles before taking the green on off the hook and slipping it on. He walks over and kisses me before saying "Get dressed and meet me at the bar. I'll have chucky make you a plate." he says. "Thank you Angel." I say softly. His hand moves to my stomach before he moves his face even with my stomach. He looks at me and I nod. "Morning mi pequeno." he says before kissing my stomach.
A few minutes later, I walk out to the bar and see Angel sitting there and a plate in front of the stool next to him. He pulls me close and kisses me softly before helping me sit down on the stool and I start eating. It's eggs, bacon, fruit and some toast with some apple juice. After I empty my plate and finish my juice and Angel is still sitting next to me and hasn't said anything. I look at him and ask "Are you okay?" He looks at me and smiles softly and says "Yeah, I want to talk to you about something." he tells me and takes my hand and leads me to Templo. He sits in his chair and pulls me into his lap. "What is it?" I ask. He kisses my lips softly and says "I've been thinking. You know how I said I was hoping to bring the baby home to our home when they're born?" he asks and I nod. "Well, I was trying to find a way that you would start to be comfortable at our house before they got here." he tells me. "Our house?" I ask. "Si mi amor. Our house." he tells me and I smile softly and lay my head on his shoulder and ask "What did you come up with?" He kisses my temple and says "I was thinking that we start with you and I stay there one night a week and let you get used to the place and then work our way up to being there all the time." he tells me. I sit there a minute, thinking about things and say "I think I can handle that." I tell him. He tilts my head up and kisses me softly. "Angel?" I ask and he looks into my eyes. "I...um...just want you to know how lucky I am. You didn't have to do this but...I appreciate you and I want you to know how amazing of a man you are." I tell him and he kisses me softly and says "I'm the lucky one mi amor." before kissing me again. "Can we...stay at your...our house tonight?" I ask. "Yeah Princesa." he tells me.
That evening, I pack half of the clothes I have in my dorm and take with us to our house. Angel uses one of the trucks at the yard to take me since I can't ride. We pull up to this little house and it's perfect. He gets out of the truck and comes to my side of the truck to help me out and I look at the house. "I know it's not much but…" he starts and I say "It's perfect." He smiles softly and leads me inside. Once inside, he tells me "We have our room and there's another room that we can make a nursery but after pequeno gets here, when we start planning our next one, we can look for a bigger house if you want." he tells me. I walk over to him and wrap my arms around his waist and look up at him smiling. "Sounds like a plan baby." I tell him and he smiles wide before kissing me deeply and when we separate, we're breathless. He shows me around the house and when we come back to the kitchen, I say "Can I cook?" He pulls me close again and says "This is your house too mi amor. You can do anything you want and you don't have to ask." he tells me and I nod. I move to the kitchen and start looking through the cupboards and fridge to see what we have that I can make. "Can I help?" he asks. I look at him and smile softly and say "I'd like that." I tell him.
We start making chicken casserole and while we are cooking, we are talking and laughing. He's standing behind me, with his arms around me and both of our hands are in the mess of shredded chicken, cream of chicken and cream of mushroom. "This shit feels nasty." He tells me laughing. "I know but when it's done you're going to love it." I tell him. "I hope so." he tells me and we both laugh again.
When the dinner is done, we sit down to eat and I wait until he takes the first bite. He looks at me shocked and says "This shit is amazing." he tells me and goes for another bite. "Told you." I tell him, taking a bite of my own. We eat and just talk. After we eat and clean up, we put the dishes in the dishwasher and he says "I want to show you something." I look at him confused and he takes my hand and leads me to the spare room. He opens the door and I see walls painted in a soft gray with black trim. "Angel." I say as I see the crib against the wall. I look back at him and he says "Letty told me that you saw it when you were out with her the other day and that you fell in love with it." he tells me. I walk over to the crib and see there is a mattress and that there is a complete crib set on it with colors to match the walls. I look back at Angel and he walks up behind me and wraps his arms around me, his hands going to my stomach. "You like it mi amor?" he asks. "I love it." I tell him. I turn to face him and whisper "You truly are amazing, and you're mine." He kisses me softly and says "Completely yours." before kissing me again. When we separate, he shows me the rest of the things in the room. There was a box of diapers, some packs of wipes and some neutral colored onesies. I pick one up and it says "Papi's Little Angel" and I look at Angel and kiss him saying "You are the man I will love."
