Caught in the Wind: Chapter 15

Disclaimer: see previous chapters…

A/N: I was very disappointed with the amount of reviews I got on the last chapter. I know that I said I needed 5 reviews to get an update, but I don't want to keep those of you who reviewed waiting. From now on if I don't get 5 reviews I will not update. Other than that thanks for those of you who reviewed, and please R/R.

" You know it's been a while since we went out. I mean just the two of us," Kevin whispered giving Lucy a kiss on the ear.

" I know, It's just I've been really busy with school and all."

" What do you say we go out tonight, just the two of us? I get off at 6."

" It's a date."

" I'll pick you up at 6:30."

Lucy turned around a kissed Kevin on the cheek, " I can't wait. I love you."

" You two." He said as he left for work.

Lucy sat at the kitchen table running her hand through her hair. She had just gotten into NYU and now she was working on her midterm paper. What to write about? Lucy questioned herself as she let out a sigh. There were so many topics to choose from, yet it was still hard to choose. She paged through the events of her life in her head trying to see if there was anything worth writing about. Then she thought of Kevin and how they had met, and she thought of the fact that she was carrying their child. She let out a sigh and began to write…

I stood looking at him, breathless. The room seemed silent except for the sound of the two of us breathing deeply.

" What can I do for you…"

" Is Kevin gone?" Mary questioned peeking her head out of the bedroom. Lucy nodded and Mary walked over beside her, " So how are you feeling."

" I've been lucky. I haven't had any morning sickness."

" Have you told him yet?"

Lucy shook her head," We're going out to dinner tonight. That's when I'm going to tell him."

Mary nodded, " I can tell he's special to you. Luce. He's the one."

" Are you doing anything tonight?" Lucy questioned.

Mary grinned and twirled her hair between her fingers. Lucy could tell just from that that she had a date.

" Whose it with?"

" Ben."

" Ben, as in Kevin's brother. Ben as in the uncle of my baby."

Mary nodded, " That's the one."

Lucy let out a chuckle, " I should have known."

Mary let out a sigh and looked into her sister's eyes, " You know how you are always asking me if I believe in love at first sight?" Mary paused for a moment and Lucy nodded, " And I always tell you that I won't believe in it until it happens to me? I finally have experienced it. Luce, I'm in love."

" But you just met him."

" I know, but I can just tell he's the one." Mary said with a shrug, " You think he likes me."

" I can't say. Ben's picky."

" Well you said he had a crush on you."

" But that's different."

Mary hit her sister playfully, " What makes you think he would like you and not me?"

" I was just saying. Look, I have to go. I'll be back around 3 for my date with Kevin, so please don't use all the hot water," Lucy said motioning towards the door.

Cars speeded pass Lucy as she exited the apartment building. The streets were busy with people trying to get to work, and catching a cab was almost impossible at this hour of the day. Lucy raised her hand in the air as a cab zipped by her. It pulled beside her and she opened the door.

"Where to miss?"

" NYU please."

" Anywhere you like," he said starting up the car.

Lucy's eyes where planted inside her book, for she had a mid-term coming up later today that she neglected to study for. It was one of her math courses, so she was not too worried about it. The thing was though that she couldn't really focus on what she was reading. All she could focus on was Kevin and the baby she was carrying.

" This is your stop." The cabby said stopping beside the curb.

" How much do I owe you?"

" 24 dollars. Flat."

Lucy handed him the money and walked into the building to her first class. While she was in her last class of the day taking her mid-term her phone rang.

"This better be important." Lucy mumbled under her breathe as she answered the phone, " What's wrong?"

" Look outside."

Lucy looked out the window in the classroom to see a limo parked beside the curb, " Is this Kevin?"

" Yeah. Look, the limo is going to take you home and then to the restaurant."

" Ok."

" Miss Camden." the professor screeched taking Lucy's paper, " There are no phones in class. You know that. I'm going to have to give you an F on your mid-term."

Lucy gathered her bags and stood up, " Then I'm leaving."

She made her way out to the parking lot were she saw the limo waiting earlier. The windows were tinted so the people inside could see out but the people outside could not see in. I wonder what the limo and everything is for. I mean it's just a dinner. Lucy questioned herself as she entered the limo. Wait a second he couldn't?

Mary ran up the stairs to the apartment she, Kevin, and Lucy shared. It was only an hour before her date with Ben and she wanted to look perfect. She opened Lucy's closet and let out a chuckle. What to wear? She questioned herself. When she finally had picked out a red dress with beading she went to take a shower. After taking her shower she put her hair in curls and made her way to the kitchen.

" Mary, you there?" Ben questioned knocking on the door.

Mary walked over and opened the door.

" Ready to go?"

Mary nodded, " On minute she said walking to the closet and getting her coat."

" Here, let me get that for you," Ben said taking it from her hands and putting it on her, " You look beautiful."

" Thank you." And with that the two made their way out the door.

" I know this sounds stupid, but do you believe in love at first sight?" Ben questioned as he pulled out the chair for Mary and took her hands.

" I asked Lucy the very same thing earlier this morning." She sighed and nodded, " Lucy always use to ask me that when we were kids and my answer would always be the same. I'll believe in it when it happens to me."

" So you are in love with someone?"

Mary nodded, " Ben, I know we haven't known each other long, but I'm in love with you."

" And I you."

Ben stood up and took Mary's hand, " Come with me. I have a surprise for you."

A/N: I know that chapter wasn't as long as normal, but I wanted to get another chapter posted and it is getting late. Oh yeah, and if you were wondering Lucy's major in the beginning of the story is creative writing. Other than that please review. Remeber I need five reviews for an update. And look for the next chapter coming soon. What is Ben's surprise for Mary? And how is Kevin going to take to Lucy's news, and what surprise does Kevin have up his sleeve for Lucy? Find out in the next chapter.
