The next day we go to the hospital, Kim is sitting in a chair right next to Trini as she breast feeds. The AJ, Jenny, Emma and Amy are standing around her and cooing at the baby.
Amy: She is so cute!
Emma: As a button(Trini looks at Kim who smiles)
Trini: Thank you little ladies(looks at them)
AJ: How did she sleep last night Aunt Tree?
Trini: She wouldn't wake up to eat….she's a sleepy bear(looks at her daughter and rubs her cheek)I hope that she does sleep when we get home(looks at Kim)to her rambunctious big brother.(Kim nods in agreement)
Jenny: Trini, I just love her eyes and she has so much hair(Trini looks at her)If you ever need me to do it. I'm a pro at pig tails(points to her own hair)
Trini:(laughs)Thank you Jen! I'll keep that in mind(looks at Kim who giggles)Alright Rinny(looks at her baby who has detached)Time for a burp(quickly covers her breast)
AJ: Can I do it?(Trini looks at her)Remember I have a lot of baby cousins on my Dad's side. I know to watch her head and hold her close.
Trini: Ok
Kim: But come sit in my seat(Kim sits down and AJ takes her place)Ok Rinny(takes her from Trini and kisses her cheek)Are you ready to burp?(gives her to AJ and AJ carefully puts Rinny over her shoulder)Be mindful of her head(AJ nods and holds the baby's neck and head)
AJ: Hi Rin(the girls go over to AJ as she starts to burp her) Are you going to burp for me?(Kim steps back a little and sits down on the bed)
Trini: Hey!(Kim looks at her)What's wrong?
Kim: What do you mean?
Trini: I mean I know my best friend.
Kim: You definitely do(they hold hands)It's nothing bad….just weird(the baby burps and passes gas)Oh(Trini and Kim turn to them. All of a sudden a squishy sound comes out)
Amy: EWWW
AJ: Not cute!(makes a face)Not cute at all Rinny.(Jason walks in)
Jason: Hello ladies!(walks over to Trini and gives her a kiss)Hi honey!
Trini: Hey babe
Jason: I must be the luckiest man in the world.(smiles)I have all of my favorite little ladies in one room(the girls giggle)Where is my newest favorite?
AJ:(happily)Right here! (stands up carefully but quickly)Here you go Uncle J(passes the baby to him)Here goes your angel.(steps back)
Jason: Thanks Pumpkin(kisses the baby)Hi, my cute precious little(makes a face)stinky baby(looks at AJ and they laugh)YOU!(rocks his daughter)You're so wrong for this.
Trini: Jason(laughs)don't talk about your daughter like(The baby wiggles and more comes out)that(winces)OOO that's right baby let it out
Jason: Oh come on!(looks at her and smiles)Your brother didn't even do this to me(kisses her cheek)You better be happy you're cute(the baby opens her mouth)Yes, I know(looks at Trini)What have you been feeding her?
Trini: The eggs and bacon that you brought by this morning.
Jason: I can smell that(Trini laughs)Ok mama(walks over to the baby bed and lays her down)Diapers?
Trini: Directly under her(he nods, grabs diaper and wipes)
Jason: Take it easy on daddy Rinny(starts changing her diaper
Trini:(sighs)I can't wait to go home.
Kim: When are you going home?
Trini: Early tomorrow morning if everything goes good(there is a knock on the door)(calls)Come in(the nurse walks in)Hey Cam!
Nurse Cam: Hey! Coming to run hearing test on the baby.
Trini: Ok!
Nurse Cam: Where is she?
Jason:(grunts)Right here(throws the diaper in the change)
Nurse: Another poop?(looks at Trini who nods)How many today?
Trini: Um(looks at her phone)one moment(scrolls through the phone)this is her second.
Nurse Cam: Good(looks at Jason)need help?
Jason: I got it(looks at her)I know how to change a girl….I used to change their diapers(points to AJ, Emma and Amy)(mumbles) She is just a little more smaller and wiggly.(Kim giggles)
Nurse Cam: Ok Jas just let me know(looks at Trini)her feeding?
Trini: She just got off my right breast and feed for about 30minutes.
Nurse Cam: and the flow?
Trini: Its coming in a lot faster(smiles)and she's still not much of an eater so I've been pumping.
Nurse Cam: Great(looks at Jason)Hey not trying to speed you up but her hearing test is scheduled for today not next week(Jason looks at her. Everyone laughs)just saying.
Jason: Did I ever tell you that you are actually my annoying little cousin not favorite?(Cam laughs a little. Picks up his daughter.)Ok here she is(passes her to his cousin)
Nurse Cam: Blanket(he passes it to her)thanks(puts the blanket on the bed and place Trinity down)Ok sweet girl(wraps up the baby)There we go(picks her up and shows her to Trini)Say see you soon mommy!
Trini:(coos)See you soon baby.
Emma: Can we go Momma?
Kim: Well….(Trini gives Jason a look and he nods)
Jason: They can come with me Kim.
Kim: Ok(quickly)but listen to Uncle Jason understand?
Amy: Will do!/
Nurse Cam: Come on(walks out with the baby and Jason and girls follow. Jason closes the door)
Kim: They love her so much(gets up and sits in the chair)
Trini: Yes they do(smiles)Rinny is very lucky(Kim nods)Ok so what's going on?
Kim: So Tommy had a dream that I was pregnant.
Trini: Well(quickly)Are you?
Kim: Nope!(sighs)but honestly for a second I thought I was(Trini sits up)
Trini:(smiles)You did?!
Kim: Yup up until I was about to pee on a stick that morning but to my surprise there was my period!
Trini: Aww Kim I'm(gives her a look)am I supposed to be happy or sad?
Kim: Relieved! I mean I would've been excited….but then again we've only been dating for less than 6months. That would've been to soon(Trini smiles)
Trini: I agree my friend(moves hair behind her ear)So, what made you and Tommy think that?
Kim: Remember when we went to Rocky's new restaurant last month for my birthday(holds her arm up showing a diamond tennis bracelet)and he got me this?
Trini: How could I forget?(laughs)I think he took everyone by surprise. I still think Hays and Little Yellow had something to do with picking that.
Kim: Maybe(plays with bracelet)but(proudly)then again Tommy has always known what I liked.
Trini:(laughs)Yeah he has!(eagerly)So what happened that night?!
Kim: Well I thought…. an Oops(shrugs)I guess we both thought so….but didn't say anything about it to each other until yesterday. Which is strange(smirks)we tell each other everything
~~~Memory~~~
Kim and Tommy are in the car driving to Rocky's new restaurant. They are listening to music and dancing goofily. Tommy laughs at Kim and looks straight ahead.
Tommy: You're a nut(Kim laughs)
Kim: Just a little.(Tommy looks at the clock)
Tommy: I don't think we are late this time(looks at the road)Trini has been moving slower lately.
Kim: I doubt it(sighs)We're always late(moves a little)Why are we always late?
Tommy: I don't know(mockingly)Tommy, I have to do my hair just right.(looks at her)It's my birthday(Kim gives him a look. He smiles and looks ahead)
Kim: Haha(hits him. He laughs)(mockingly)Kim, come on don't you want company in the shower?(He looks at her)It's your birthday blah-blah(he raise an eyebrow at her with a smile)Yeah(rolls her eyes) that was you! If you would've gotten out of my way, I could've had more time to do my hair. I had to use wasted energy to fight you off(Tommy laughs and looks at the road)
Tommy: Well it is your birthday! And you just got off your cycle yesterday(touches her thigh)When was the last time you had birthday sex?
Kim: Mmm(squints her eyes)is this a trick question?
Tommy:(laughs)Not at all(Kim sits there and thinks about it)
Kim: I can't believe I have to think about this(blows out some air)Girls, were three (Tommy looks at her)I think that was the last time before I left Davis(he nods)and even that was awkward because we were trying to work on our marriage.
Tommy: Then my beautiful girlfriend you are due.(Kim laughs)
Kim: I don't think I am boyfriend(holds his hand)I think my sexual appetite for these past three almost four months has been fed(rubs his hand)plentifully(Tommy looks at her before kissing her hand)I have you to thank for that.
Tommy: MM! Well don't thank me yet(looks at the road)We still have until after dinner for you to thank me(Kim rolls her eyes and he laughs)Hey you want your birthday gift?
Kim: Tommy what birthday gift?…. You already bought me flowers, decorated our room, got me a card and took me to the spa. You even let me get a nap in. I don't need anything else.
Tommy: You deserve it!
Kim: You're sweet(reaches and kisses his cheek)but honestly I don't need anything else.
Tommy: Well I guess I'm going to have to return it! And I thought you would love it(Tommy looks at her and gives her pouty eyes)
Kim: Please take it back!(smiles)I have been "Wooed" enough!
Tommy: No you haven't(pokes out his lip)Let me "Woo" you Kimberly! Pleaseeeeee(Kim laughs)
Kim: Ok-ok what is it?(Tommy smiles and pulls over in front of someone's home)Why are you pulling over? You didn't buy me a house did you?(he gives her a look and turns off the car)Tommy we're going to be late?/
Tommy: We're just around the corner(Tommy lets go of her hand reaches over his seat)Ok close your eyes(Kim gives him a look)Close them(Kim sighs, covers her eyes and smiles)Are you peeking?(waves his hand in front of her face)
emKim:(sings) I am not.
Tommy: Good(pulls out a small box from behind his seat)Ok(opens the box showing a gold diamond bracelet)Open them(Kim quickly takes her hands down and gasp. Kim covers her mouth as tears start to form. Tommy looks at her with a smile)Do you love it?(Kim nods)Good I picked it myself(Kim laughs a little)Give me your wrist. I want to see it on you(Kim puts her wrist out and her other hand over her chest. Tommy takes it out and puts it on her)There prefect(looks at her and wipes away her tears)That's exactly were it belongs(Kim starts kissing him all over his face)(laughs)I'm guessing you love your surprise after all?
Kim: Do I?(gets out her seat and straddles him. He instantly holds her)
Tommy: What are you doing?(she starts kissing him on his neck)
Kim:(while kissing him)Thanking you(Tommy looks around)
Tommy: We are in a public neighborhood.
Kim: You have tints(unbuttons his shirt and starts kissing his chest)
Tommy: What if someone walks by?(rubs her back)and sees the car moving.
emKim: More of a thrill(stops kissing him)Adrenaline King(he looks at her amused and then looks at the clock)
Tommy: We're going to be late Beautiful
Kim: I'm the guest of Honor and its my birthday Handsome(kisses him)I can be late if I want too and I can have whatever I want to(grabs him by the collar)understand?
Tommy: Yes ma'am(Kim smiles and kiss him passionately)
Kim: Mmm(pulls away)Besides all I need is 10minutes
Tommy: Ten?(raises his eyebrows)
Kim: You'll get the rest of my gratitude later on after dinner remember?
Tommy: Oh yeah(Kim nods and kisses him passionately)Mm(pulls away)I have real quick question?(Kim looks at him)Do your birthday rules apply for my birthday?
Kim: MM(kisses his neck)Yes(he laughs)your birthday is my birthday. So I'll still be in charge(he gives her a look and she laughs. Tommy flips her over and is now on top of her)no (screams)Ahh(laughs)Tommy my hair!
Tommy: No ma'am I'm in cha(before he can say finish; Kim flips him back over and leans the seat back)(surprised)Never mind(she laughs)It's all you birthday girl(Kim grabs his face and they continue to kiss)
~~~Memory End~~~
Kim: and then within that 10 glorious minutes and a messed up hair due(hand gestures) Tommy went "boom" and I went "AH" and yeah(looks at Trini who is laughing)I wasn't thinking MOVE Kim….your on top, he is not wearing protection and this a rental car.
Trini:(laughs)Kimberly!(playfully)You were just so grateful for the bracelet.
Kim: Shamefully(they both laugh)
Trini: You better be happy GOD….decided not to listen to you and your birthday rules about having whatever you want. I don't think you wanted to have a baby.
Kim:(laughs)Not at all! I'm just happy that I took my pill before we left. I think that is what saved me in the long run(Trini laughs)I'll try to never be that irresponsible again.
Trini: Please try,(jokingly)because his birthday is next month(Kim reaches over and hits her leg)So how did Tommy react when he thought you were?
Kim: Calm! I think he was kind of wanting a kid….but I told him this morning "Tommy we've only been together less than six months. It's no rush for anything when it comes to our relationship" you know? I mean I just got divorced. If I got pregnant I know he'd want to marry me.
Trini: Yeah he would(pauses and makes a face)Wait, what's wrong with that?
Kim: Nothing(softly) it's just too soon(Trini nods)(sighs)You know he wants to marry me now?
Trini: Really?!
Kim: Yeah! We talk about it sometimes.
Trini: You never told me that.
Kim: Yeah because I never take it serious. I mean when we talk about it….we've been joking around. But ever since yesterday I've been thinking about how serious he might've been.
Trini: Well Tommy has always been serious about you two(Kim nods)He has never taken your relationship as a joke, not even in high school(softly)and I know Tommy would marry you at a drop of a dime. He loves you more than anything is this world.
Kim:(smiles)I know(leans back in the chair)and I love him as much as I love my daughters.(stops smiling)Do you think I should talk to him about what he wants for us?
Trini: Most definitely!...I think it's important that you do. You guys have been together for almost six months. You know Six months is….
Kim: Big I know(sighs)Yeah, I'll talk to him about it. Right now we're enjoying each other and I love that fact. But Tommy is almost 32, with no kids and has never been married(Trini nods)I don't want to string him along. He doesn't deserve that at all(Trini nods in agreement)So enough about us(smiles)What are you wanting to do for the welcome home party?
Trini: I'm not sure! I don't think I want one(Kim raises her eyebrow)But if I were to have one...I was thinking under sea party(Kim nods)
Kim: I'm listening(Trini keeps talking)
