Thanks for reviewing.
I own nothing.
Ranger stared at me as I sat there. This must be the first time I have woken up without throwing up.
"Hi." I whispered to him in a raspy voice. "Babe." He replied. Ranger stood there for a minute before sitting down next to me. I slowly turned to him with my eyes really wide because we haven't talked about IT yet. We all know what IT is.
"We need to talk." He told me. Wow, four words out of Batman. I nodded slowly and out of no where he had his arms wrapped around me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and snuggled close to him. "So, you're pregnant. With my baby." Was that happiness I heard in his voice. "My life doesn't really lead the life for a family…." My heart sank. "But I will be there for everything." I smiled up at him.
We sat there on the bed for a while when I spoke up. "What about us?" I whispered scared to death.
"Will you be my girl. My girlfriend?" Ranger asked me. I pretended to frown and pretended to think.
"Only if I can call you Ric!" I told him and leaned up to kiss him on the lips. He responded and deepen the kiss by sneaking in his tongue in my mouth. I sighed happily as the kiss ended.
"We'll work, Baby. I promise." He called me baby! How unlike Ranger, Ric must be talking. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep with that promise in my heart.
Few hours later
I woke up and ran towards the toilet. Oh, I'm so shocked. Burg rolling of the eyes. I finally got up and made my way to the kitchen to drink some water. I saw a little woman in there working up some food. It smelt great and my stomach rumbled….in a good way. I scooted closer to smell the food. She quickly turned around and smiled warmly at me.
"Hola, Stephanie. I'm Ella, Ranger's housekeeper slash aunt." Ella told me in a wind whirl.
"Hi." I whispered and tried to peek around her at the food. I hadn't eaten anything solid in days.
"Ranger told me you might be hungry so I whipped up some food that is good for you and the baby but still light on the stomach." I smiled widely at her and sat down and did a look around the apartment. Ella set the good in front of me and started telling me stories about Ranger as a child. Ranger came back in and kissed my cheek and Ella left.
"I got a job for you downstairs." Ranger started. "You'll work part-time." My mouth dropped open. OH no he didn't. My eyes narrowed.
"YOU GOT ME A JOB!!!" I screamed at him. " WITHOUT ASKING ME!!!" First mistake for dating Stephanie. Don't tell me what to DO! Ranger frowned at me but I started walking out of the apartment.
"Babe." He said grabbing my arm and pulling me to him. "You can't be a bounty hunter anymore and I thought you would be happy working here. Also, I don't want any murderer going after you with our baby in there." he said rubbing my tummy.
"Okay." I mumbled to him hugging him.
1 month Later
"You have to go." Stephanie said simply.
"I made this 2 months ago." Ric said trying to reasonable with her.
"I know but still." Stephanie whined at her boyfriend.
"I'll be back before you know it. Hal and Bobby are on Babe duty." I rolled my eyes. I hate it when he put someone on duty for just little oh me.
"Okay." I sighed and walked him out the car with Tank waiting in it. He kissed me softly before leaving. I went to the fifth floor and went to my cube. I was bored after an hour of work. I went to the control room where Hal was.
"Hi, Hal." I said leaning against the wall. He looked at me then at Lester and then he sighed before getting up taking a set of car keys with him. I smiled and followed him. "Vinnie's office!" I want to see Lula and Connie. He sighed again as he pulled out of Rangman office parking lot thingy. I bounced into the office after getting there.
"YO! White girl." Lula cried out and came and hugged me. Connie came next. I think her hair knocked me out. "How's the Batcave?" Lula asked her eyes flicking to Hal.
"Its okay." I said leaving her in suspense.
"TELL US!" Connie yelled at me. I started laughing. I miss them.
"I only came for short visit! I got to go back to work." I hugged them good-bye and left them.
"STEPAHNIE!" I heard them yell at me. Hal started the car and I was still laughing.
The Next day
I was really tired today and not feeling to hot. I was at my desk staring off into space when Tank came in. "Are you okay?" Tank asked putting his huge hand on my forehead.
"No!" I mumbled.
"You're burning up. BOBBY!" Tank yelled the last part and Bobby came running. A pain shot through my stomach.
"AHH!!" I screamed. Bobby looked down and his face went white.
"GET A CAR! Stephanie stay calm. Come on we're going to the hospital." Tank picked me up. I silently crying.
"Make it stop." I moaned. Tank put me in back with Bobby. Tank got in the front seat and drove off before everything went black in my world.
