Part III:
Three month later;
Bosco moved more or less in with Faith. At first he went home at night to come back early the next morning. But after a while he just stayed over. Still they didn't do much other them holding each other at night.
Faith' couch was a little uncomfortable to sleep on, so she invited Bosco to share the bed, after the first few nights he stayed there. After the first night they woke up spooned together, it was a little tense, too fresh were the memories about the night in the hotel room. But it became a regular occurrence at night so they got not only used to it but enjoyed it. Every morning Bosco would give Faith a good morning kiss and stroke softly over her belly.
He showed as side Faith never knew he possessed. He was constantly there for her and tried to hold his temper under control for her. Every morning he made her a light breakfast while she was in the bathroom because of her morning sickness. He even helped her with things like cleaning up and cooking. But the best thing was, that he went out at all times of the day or night to get Faith what she currently was craving for. Something Fred never did, mostly because he was drunk all the time.
"How long do we have to wait, Faith?" Bosco was very nervous and paced back and forth in the waiting room.
"Bosco, it's just a check up. Nothing to worry about, would you just sit down."
He looked at her but continued pacing. Faith gave him one of her looks and uses a tone she had used countless times before, when she had to keep Bosco in check.
"Bosco!"
He immediately sat down. It was good to see that some things never change. No matter what the future would bring for them, they would always be Boscorelli and Yokas, partners, friends and a perfect match. Nothing could change there relationship, they would still be the same persons.
After waiting for about 20 minutes the doctor finally called Faith in. Bosco would stay outside during the pelvic exam. Faith knew he wouldn't like that part of the exam and neither did she, for that matter. Afterward Bosco was called in to see his child for the first time.
The doctor put some cold gel on Faith belly before doing the ultrasound.
"Everything is perfectly fine, your baby seems healthy and is the right height for the 16th week. Do you want to know the gender?", the old man asked kindly.
Faith looked at Bosco and silently told him that this was his decision. She would go along with what he wanted. She did this two times all ready but it was his first child.
"Yeah, thanks doctor", he nodded.
"It lies perfectly to see what it is. See that? It's a girl!", he explained.
Bosco and Faith smiled, the were gonna have a little girl!
Fifteen minutes they were outside and on the way to the 55th. Bosco had an arm around Faith and had pulled her close.
"I'm so happy! I never thought I would be a farther or that it would be with a woman I love!"
She looked at him. "You are happy that it is my child, too?"
"Of course, Faith! I told you again and again that I love you, I guess it's time you start believing it. I can't imagine having kids with anybody but you, I just didn't expect it so soon."
Faith was stunned. She knew he wanted that child and loved them both but deep down she was still scared of being hurt again like Fred did.
"Oh Bosco, I love you! So much!", she said and kissed him passionately.
Bosco was momentarily taken aback, this was the most intimate contact they had since the night there daughter was conceived. He hadn't expect her to kiss him so it took him a minute to respond. They stood in the middle of the sidewalk and kissed like there was no tomorrow. After the by passers called things like "Get a room!" they finally realised where they were.
"I'd love to continue this but I don't think it would by the right way to tell the guys about the baby by having them arrest us for making out on the sidewalk," he grinned and winked at her.
"Oh, I don't know. I'm pregnant after all, that must count for something! I can't help it anyway"
She leant down to his ear and whispered "You know that the sex drive of a pregnant woman doubles or more in the second trimester?"
She smiled wickedly before turning around. Bosco stood there for a few seconds with his mouth open. Was she implying what he thought she was implying? He didn't have the chance to ponder that question, Faith was all ready halfway down the street.
"You coming?", she called and grinned at him.
