Abandoned Baby
Chapter 182
A few days later, the guys were staying over at Drew's and Bless' since the Scot invited them to the new house they recently moved into that Drew bought for them now that the new addition to the family soon.
While the guys were grilling and hanging out, Bless felt ill from the smell of the food and ran to the toilet to empty out her stomach. After she cleaned herself up and brushed her teeth.
She walked back to the patio laying her head on Drew's shoulder as he was watching the guys play with the kids.
"You okay?" Drew turned to the love of his life rubbing her back.
Bless nodded weakly against him resting as she grabbed his hand to intertwine it with her's.
Drew sat with Bless and stroked her hair back. "Babe, why don't you go in and relax?" He suggested since he knew his wife wasn't feeling good.
"I'll be fine sweetie. I just want to stay with you." She told him with a small smile.
Drew chuckled and kissed her head sweetly.
"Hey sweetie, you okay?" PJ asked Bless who looked a little pale seeing her sit out with Drew.
She nodded at the South African man. "I'm fine Peej, just sick to my stomach is all but I should be okay." She reassured her best friend with a small smile.
The Capetown man didn't look too convinced by the way Bless looked. There looked to be something off about her that she looked like she was more sicker than she normally was.
"Are you sure I shouldn't be worried?" PJ asked concerned over the well being of his female bestfriend.
"Peej, I'm fine. Really. You and the guys go play." Bless reassured she was fine from where she was sitting with Drew.
The Capetown daredevil nodded even though he wasn't too convinced and was worried why she ran in the house quickly when he saw her face turn a shade of green.
Drew smiled working the kinks around Bless' head and neck area massaging it.
"Mmmmm...that feels so wonderful hon." Bless cooed softly loving the feel of Drew's hands and fingers working on her sore muscles.
Drew smiled softly watching Bless close her brown eyes softly enjoying his gentle massage.
"Get a room lovebirds!" Stu chuckled seeing his two best friends relaxing together by the pool area lounge.
Drew laughed and playfully flipped the bigger man off.
"I'm going in for a nap. " Bless yawned tiredly standing up.
"You okay love?" Drew asked cupping Bless' cheek.
She nodded and smiled. "I'm just tired is all babe. You enjoy and hang out with the guys, you deserve a break."
Drew nodded planting a kiss on Bless' temple and gently stroked her stomach with his thumb.
"You and baby go rest." He smiled as she nodded going in the house.
Drew then returned to hang out with the guys.
"Hey guys." Drew walked over to meet the guys.
"Hey lad,where's little lass?" Stephen asked not seeing Drew's plus one beside him. Usually they were attached at the hip.
"Inside resting. She feels under the weather right now." The Scot told his best friend.
"I hope she's all right." PJ felt concerned for his best friend who wasn't feeling well.
"She'll be fine once she and baby gets rest." Drew blurted out as the few guys turned to him hoping they heard right. Did he just say baby?!
Drew blushed out big time he said the word baby to his friends.
"Lad, did you just say baby?" Stephen asked shocked if Bless was again pregnant.
"My best friend IS having another baby?!" PJ stood still in his place next to Heath.
"Me and my big mouth...Alright guys, Bless IS pregnant again." Drew revealed to the few that didn't know about her pregnancy.
"How is she dealing with the news of the baby?" PJ asked the Scot.
"She's fairly dealing with it well and we're going to work on things as we normally do now that there is a new addition to the family." Drew explained to the South African man on how they were dealing with the new baby on the way.
"So, are you excited becoming a dad again lad?" The Irishman asked turning to his best friend.
"I am. I'm going to help Bless as much as I can. "
"Wait, why aren't you guys shocked as we are?" PJ looked to Heath, Yuv (Jinder), and Stu (Wade) who looked normally chilled out while he and Ste were left out in the dark.
Heath chuckled beside him. "Bud, we knew this whole time. Drew and Bless came to us, Yuv and I and they told us."
"Bless was sick just a few days ago. I knew something was going on with her and confronted her about it. She told me that she had the same symptoms she had with Alex." The big Brit added.
"I knew before hand Bless was very ill and she didn't eat too much. I knew something threw me for a loop when she didn't eat because usually she's not a very picky eater. She had the same symptoms before with Alex when she was last pregnant. She told me then when she wasn't feeling well so I took her to Dr. Amann's to get her checked and to our surprise we found out she was pregnant." Drew explained to his South African best friend and the guys.
"I guess congrats to you and the lass man. This has to be a blessing that you and B are having another baby so soon." Stephen was pretty shocked and happy at the same time for the couple who were adding an addition to the family.
Drew nodded. "It is a blessing man. Bless and I always had the talk about having babies and making a big soccer team."
"Hopefully it'll be a little need a little princess around." Stu chimed in hoping Bless and Drew had a little girl around and seeing her dressed in cute dresses. They would protect her from boys if they would hurt her.
"I second that Shtu. I would love to have another little girl around. I wouldn't mind either if Bless and I have another boy to add to the family. We could teach him the ropes of our business and possibly love football."
The boys cheered to that. "Hell yeah man. It would be cool to teach the men some sports and get them into the game." Stephen added excited to teach his future nephew hopefully to play football with him and the guys.
The boys were hanging out and talking about Heath's family.
"Hopefully our kids will grow up and be the best of friends." The Scot hoped for their kids to be best buds growing up.
I hope so too dude. It would be cool to have our kids grow up together and beome best friends." Heath had to agree.
After Bless got her nap in, she was feeling better than she was previously. She got out of bed to check on the kids as she walked in the nursery to see Alex was still fast asleep. Next she walked in Catherine's room to see her asleep peacefully in bed holding Cubby close and sucking her pacifier before turning on the baby monitor just incase the kids needed her.
She smiled leaving the room to go check in the men who were downstairs near the pool lounge. Stu and Drew were manning the grill, Heath and PJ were doing laps in the pool, and Stephen was relaxing on the beach lounge chair.
She placed the baby monitor at a near by table before walking out and wrapped her arms around her hubby kissing his back.
Drew smiled when he felt arms encircle his midsection and the smell of lavender lotion tickled his senses knowing the love of his life had just awoken.
"Hey sleeping beauty, you sleep well?" Drew turned and pecked Bless hello which almost made her toes curl falling deep into his kiss.
She nodded looking up at him. "Like a baby." She told him with a soft tone.
"How's our little one?" He asked bringing his hand down to caress her still but small visible stomach.
"Pretty good daddy." Bless smiled enjoying the gentle caress on her skin.
"Good." He smiled pulling his wife flush against his tall frame.
"You hungry, Shtu and I are making hotdogs and hamburgers."
"I could eat." Bless giggled as the scent of the food they were making filtered around them.
"Glad to see you're awake sleeping beauty. You enjoy your nap?" The Preston man spoke seeing his best friend was awake.
"In fact I have thanks for asking Stuart." Bless giggled as she was leaning against her hubby.
"You seemed relaxed today." He happened to notice how relaxed she looked after a refreshing sleep.
She nodded. "I am today." She nodded feeling much better.
"Do you want one of each babe?" Drew asked Bless what she wanted to eat.
"Mmmhmmm..." She cooed nodding that she was starving.
After Drew and Stu manned the grilled, they started serving the food and snacks.
The boys shortly followed suit getting out of the pool since they too were as hungry as Bless after doing laps around the pool.
"Hey hot mama." The redhead Heath Slater greeted his best friend with a warm smile and kiss to the cheek.
"Hey red." She greeted the country bumpkin.
"Hey baby girl." The African man greeted her too with a hug and kiss as well.
"Hey wolf boy." Bless greeted the Cape Town boy ruffling his hair.
"Hey lass." Stephen walked over to Bless giving her a hug.
"Hey big guy." Bless smiled fitting into his embrace.
"So, how is my favorite mother to be?" Stephen asked as Bless' mouth dropped. She guessed Drew had spilled the beans and now the secret was out.
"Sorry baby, me and my big mouth." Drew apologized to Bless for letting the cat out of the bag.
"It's okay babe. They were going to find out one way or the other. To answer your question Ste, I'm good and yet happy." Bless told the big Irish man.
"How does it feel to be a mum again?" He inquired.
"Shocking yet a blessing in another way. I guess Drew and I got baby fever." She giggled as she put her hand to her still flat stomach.
"You little hussy,why didn't you tell me." PJ spoke up with a teasing tone in his voice.
"I wanted it to be a surprise but this one let it out of the bag." She pointed to Drew teasing her hubby.
"I'm happy for you sweetheart. You're going to be a great mother just like you are with Cat and Alex." The adrenaline junkie told her proudly.
Bless smiled as PJ embraced her with brotherly love.
"Did you find out how many weeks you are into the pregnancy sweetcheeks?" The country bumpkin asked Bless how far along she was.
"Dr. Amann told me two weeks in. I'll be in the third week soon into the trimester." She told him how far along she was.
"I'm surprised you're not showing much yet baby girl." PJ seemed to notice.
"This little one is small yet but I will start to get big by the next few months."
During that afternoon, Bless hung out with the guys and enjoyed the day having fun in the sun and catching up with each other.
