Chapter 62
Two days later, Mercedes returned home from Orlando. She had enjoyed everything while there. Becky hated to see Mercedes go, but she knew Mercedes both needed and wanted to go home. Two of the reasons being Evelyn and Aaron. Becky understood that having just becoming a mother herself a few days prior.
Mercedes was very happy to see both her son and daughter on her return. Evelyn was very happy as well. Mercedes was very happy to hug and hold her daughter for a while. Colby arrived home just thirty minutes after his wife. Evelyn was just as happy to see him as she had her mother.
"I'm so happy to be home and have you in my arms," Colby said as he and Mercedes were in bed later that night.
"Me too," Mercedes replied. "I missed you a lot."
"Same here. Same here."
"I missed you a lot when I was in Orlando. I was very jealous of Becky. She had her husband and her baby. I wanted my husband and my babies."
"Very understandable," Colby replied.
"But I'm with you now and the babies are asleep," Mercedes replied with a wink.
"Oh," Colby chuckled.
"Mmm-hmm!"
Mercedes moved from her spot on the bed and climbed onto Colby. He sat up as he had been lying down.
"It has been too long since I had you too," Mercedes said.
"I agree," Colby said.
"But we're going to take care of that right now."
"We sure are."
Mercedes smiled. She leaned over and kissed her husband passionately.
The night was filled with a little love making. Which was what the two needed. They had not been intimate since Mercedes had Aaron. But the wait had been worth it. There was a lot of passion that night. And in just a few weeks the happily married couple would get an expected surpriseā¦
"Colby," Mercedes said, opening the bathroom door to her and her husband's bedroom.
"Yeah, baby?" Colby asked.
"You need to see something."
"Okay, I'm coming."
Mercedes grinned. She held a home pregnancy test in her hands.
"What's up, baby?" Colby asked as he walked into the bathroom.
"This," Mercedes said, showing him the pregnancy test.
Colby looked at it for a second. "Are you shitting me?"
"No! I'm two months late and I have been having the symptoms. This is confirmation."
"Well, there's nothing better than having a baby with you," Colby said with a smile.
Mercedes smiled. She hugged and kissed her husband. He happily returned the kiss and hugged her back.
Mercedes made an appointment with her OB/GYN. And a day later, she found out she was a little over eight weeks pregnant.
"I can't believe you're pregnant again," Colby said.
"I know," Mercedes said. "I'm so excited!"
"As am I. Maybe this one will be a girl."
"We'll worry about that later," Mercedes giggled.
Colby chuckled. "Like I said, there's nothing better than having a baby with you."
"I love you."
"Love you too."
