Okay, Fairly long and my apologies for the messy ending I just wanted to finish this chapter! :O
Also MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR 2011!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Another three months has gone by and I was so excited, me and Brick where going to an ultra sound appointment today, and we get to see our baby for the first time!
I had completely erased the previous months from my memory because I don't want anything to remind me of Milo and his 'crew'. Brick has barely left the house since I came back, and if he really does have to leave he makes sure that either one of his brothers or my sisters are hear with me. I mean yeah he's only looking out for me, but god damn it! I hate it when he comes over all overprotective! I take a deep breath to stop myself from going mad from being inside all the time.
On the bright side, I've been meeting all my deadlines for the Townsville Edits! Dexter has backed off considerably since I became pregnant and is now harassing some poor girl on the fifth floor! Jackson Johnson kindly paid for me and Brick to have a new wall fitted but me and Brick have literally just found a new little house that is perfect for us. We are moving in in the next couple of months, so I'm super excited about that too! That would explain why our tiny apartment has empty boxes hanging around.
I heard Brick from the other room and I turn the volume up a bit on the TV, I'm sat at home on the couch flicking meaninglessly through the channels. Brick was in the bedroom quickly finishing off some paper work from a recent case. I rested my head on the cushion and closed my eyes.
I thought back to the previous time we went to a baby scan but unfortunately the monitor was out of order, so we couldn't see him/her but we where assured that he/she is fine.
I thought back to recent tests from the professor and when we found out that the baby has super powers just like me and Brick had when we where younger. However because my body is just like any other human beings now, whenever the baby stretches or kicks me it really knocks the wind from my lungs; and can sometimes hurt.
Flashback
"Oh come on! You know I HATE crappy reality shows!" Brick whined from the side of me. We where sprawled out on the couch and I had just put on a singing talent show. The 'singer' on the screen looked in their mid forties, he was slightly over weight and his hair was seriously thinning. He grinned a toothy grin to the camera and started to sing.
It sounded like screeching and the guy thought he was really good! I burst out laughing while Brick narrowed his eyes at the screen.
"SEE! He can't even sing! Seriously Blossy you watch some crap... now come on! the big football game is on tonight" I turned to face him and cocked an eyebrow.
"Brick Jojo, I am your pregnant wife... now if you want to take this away from me... after being... stuck inside all day... well..." I had over dramatised the entire thing, I made my bottom lip tremble and had my hand on my chest. I had even made tears come to my eyes!
I caught it as Brick eyes softened and in a milli-second I let my act slip by letting a tiny grin catch the corner of my mouth. Brick immediately dived for the remote and we began trying to pull it out of each others grasp. "You little lair! And to think for a second I actually believed you... you've gotten better Bloss" he grinned, but I was still using all my strength to pull the remote out of his hands. Brick suddenly yanked it from my hands and quickly flipped channels to the football game. I huffed and jumped into his lap my legs at either side of his so I was practically straddling him.
"Give it!" I ordered and Brick grinned.
"That's it you are so bringing this attitude to the bedr-"
"BRICK!" I yelled playfully and went back to trying to grab the remote. Suddenly I felt a sharp painful jab to my stomach. I gasped and my eyes went wide, Brick had froze and his eyes where wide too he had his hands in the air with the remote still out of my reach.
"What the fuck was that?" He said in a low voice still in shock. I quickly climbed off him and sat back in the couch breathing deeply. I had really felt like someone had punched me, Brick was over me in an instant.
"What's wrong? Are you OK? Are you hurt? Blossom speak to me!" Brick yelled, I looked him in the eyes and grabbed his hand.
"The baby just kicked" I said, Brick looked shocked before a huge grin swept over his face, but then was covered with worry all at the same time.
"Did it hurt?" He asked, I barked a laugh and laid my head on the couch.
"Like hell! But he or she is very strong so it's to be expected" I say, Brick looks beside himself and I know he thinks he's putting me through this.
"Look Brick, I couldn't be happier the kicking is a good sign it just means that our baby wants us to know their there! You know? Like a little hello?" I says squeezing his hand, Brick shifts his eyes to look at mine and manages a small smile.
"Yeah?"
"Yeah" I smile, I pull him into a hug and I feel him rubbing my stomach; I smile wider and pull back to kiss him. He then pulls me down so I'm lying with him on the couch and drapes and arm around my waist protectively. He then grabs the remote and flicks the channel back over to what I was watching.
"I'm going to take his little kick as a sign he wanted to listen to really bad singing instead" Brick murmurs into my ear. I smile. Happy and content snuggling into my husband's chest.
"Come on Blossy we haven't got all day!"
I was snapped from my thoughts when Brick walked through grabbing the keys and his phone, I heaved myself off the couch and put my coat on.
"Come on!" Brick moaned.
"Brick, we have an hour and a half yet what's the rush?" I laughed, I walked out of the door while Brick locked it.
"I just want to see my little lad that's all" Brick said, I smirked and walked into the lift.
"And what makes you so sure it's a boy?"
Brick shrugged and held my hand. The door opened as we hit the bottom floor, and we where met with a whack of cold air. Well it was November. We stepped out of the lobby and the sidewalk was coated in ice, I gripped Brick's hand tighter. I hated Ice, I was always uncoordinated but Ice made my life 10 times worse! I heard Brick stifle a laugh and I glared.
"Can we take the car?" I asked.
"Car's in for a service, sorry Blossy but where walking"
"WHAT?" I stopped and yanked him back looking at him wide eyed. Brick looked confused.
"Brick I can't walk all the way to the doctor's!" I practically screeched, Brick looked really amused and continued walking with me trailing behind.
"It's not that far" Brick called over his shoulder, I caught up so we where walking side by side our fingers laced together.
"You know if I fall, the baby might get hurt" I said pulling out the big guns. Brick rolled his eyes.
"Blossom our boy has super powers I'm sure if you fall he will be fine" Brick said full of confidence.
"Seriously? What if she's a girl?" I say completely ignoring his original intent. Brick shrugs again and grins.
15 minuets later
We where just walking into the doctors office, Brick was walking behind me a bellowing laughing rumbling through his body. I stomped ahead my cheeks red and puffy and marched up to the desk, where a small plump old woman sat.
"Are you okay dear?" she asked me. I had a face like thunder and tried to make sure my glare wasn't that intimidating.
"I have a appointment for a ultrasound appointment" I say my teeth grinding together.
"Okay... name please?" She asks, clicking away on her computer.
"Blossom Jojo" I say through my teeth.
"Uhh uh and do you have any friends or relatives with you today?" she asked her eyes scanning the computer in front of her.
"No." I say simply, the woman looks up, when someone appears at the side of me
"What she means to say is yes" Brick says flashing a charming smile, I glare at him and turn in a huff to sit on the cold metal waiting chairs.
"Is she okay?"I heard the receptionist ask Brick, I didn't even look and just stared out of the window. I can not believe Brick laughed at me! I mean I slipped and all he did was laugh! What an in-conceded little bast-
"Hormonal pregnant lady, what do you expect?" Brick sighs, I grind my teeth together and narrow my eyes. I feel my skin getting colder but I stare outside to the passing traffic ignoring the sensation.
"So how are you in relation to Ms. Jojo?" she asks, Brick laughs.
"It's 'Mrs' and I'm her husband... the baby daddy" He chuckles, for some reason my mood drops and I feel really cold. I don't really hear anything and watch as snow begins falling outside, becoming heavier and heavier.
"Hey Blossom... Bloss? You okay?" My eyes are still wide and I snap them to look at Brick, I release a breath and I suddenly re-heat. I look around to see everyone looking outside.
"What's everyone looking at?" I ask, Brick looks confused and points outside, I turn and see a blizzard out the window. I let out a small squeak and my hand flies to my lips.
"Opps" I mumble, Brick turns and looks at me his eye brows knitted together then widen in realisation.
"You did that!" He hisses.
"Don't blame me! It was your darling baby boy hear!" I say back innocently, pointing to my stomach. Brick opens his mouth as if to say something when we are called in to the doctors room.
"Ahh Mr and Mrs Jojo, how are we? Well I hope" The doctor asks, he was a middle aged man with grey thinning hair and round glasses.
"Great" Brick says.
"Okay" I mumble, I then remember I'm about to see my baby and butterflies flood my stomach I grin and take my big coat off and hang it on the hanger.
"Well Blossom lets get you on the bed and if you would lift your shirt up that would be great" He asks, his eyes scanning over a file with my name on. Brick helps me on the bed and I pull my shirt up showing my bump, I lie back and roll my head to look at the monitor the doctor is setting up. I feel Brick lace his fingers through mine and I turn to look at him, he's grinning his mischievous smirk and I mirror him.
"Okay Blossom this might be a bit cold..." I hear a wheezing noise and ice cold liquid is squeezed onto my stomach. I jump and tighten my grip on Bricks hand.
"Easy" I hear Brick hiss, it was so quite however I had to strain to hear him. I look at my hand in his and forgot I sometimes became too strong. I released my grip immediately and apologised.
"Don't worry baby" He grinned putting his hand back in mine and kissing the back of it.
'Shot through the heart and your to blame, darlin' you give love a bad name...'
Brick suddenly starts patting his pockets down trying to find the source of the ring tone, I look at him my eyes wide, why the hell has he brought his work phone? Brick finds the tiny gadget and flicks it open.
"I'm busy" Is all he says before snapping it shut, he mumbles a sorry and stuff it back in his pocket. I was so focused on Brick I didn't register the doctor rolling over my stomach until he told me.
"And there is your baby"
I look to my right and Brick cranes his neck to see. I gasp and smile looking at the tiny picture on the monitor. "Whoa" I heard Brick, my smile is so big I feel like it's splitting my face but I don't care. Even though the picture was fussy my baby was perfect. I felt a rush of love flood my body and I vowed I would protect him/her forever.
"Can you tell what it is yet?" Brick asked before me, I had never seen him so excited he had a sparkle in his beautiful blood red eyes. The doctor ran the roller over a few times.
"Well there sat in a awkward position but from what I can see I pursume it's a little boy. Congratulations."
"WAH HOO!" Brick hollers, He grin and tears pool my eyes as I look at my little boy. I look at Brick who looks as if he's been given the greatest gift ever (well to be fair he just has.) Our eyes meet and I smile. Our lips meet and we kiss passionately.
The doctor packs up all of his equipment and says that we should come back for a check up in 2 weeks, he also hands us 7 photocopies of the baby. I thank him and we head out into the now ankle deep snow.
"So a boy, who would have thought?" I say grinning, Brick looks at me with a cheeky expression.
"Told ya" He says winking, we began walking when his god damn work phone blares again.
"For the love of- Hello?" Brick yells down the phone, he looks at the sky with a frustrated expression. I flick through the collection of photos taking my time to look at him. I was brought out of my thoughts by Brick's yelling.
"FINE! I'm on my way!" Brick snaps his phone shut "Stupid fucking-"
"Brick!" I say, He turns and faces me apologetically.
"Look some newbie has messed up an assignment in Canada and I have to go and sort it out, I'm real sorry Blossy" He says taking my hands, I don't blame him I totally understand, I mean I used to do the same it's his job.
"It's okay"
"Bloss, I think Buttercups in I'll take you there if you want?" He asks rubbing the back of his neck. I roll my eyes.
"Brick I'm a big girl don't worry!" I say but he doesn't look convinced.
"For my own peace of mind babe?" He pleads and I strongly stand my ground.
"... You could show her the baby pictures?" Shoot. He's totally got me there, I let my shoulders slump and he knows he's won and a grin spreads across his face.
"Fine"
