My deepest apologies! It's been way too long hasn't it! Thank you for all the messages, alerts, favorites, everything. I can't tell you how crazy life has gotten or how blocked I've been. But I'm going to finish this along with my other two. Please enjoy and feel free to let me know how you feel! With love, Lady LP
For the next week we both kept our hands to ourselves. There was no telling what was happening in my body, if I was or wasn't pregnant. So instead of pushing the limits we cuddled and played around, everything we did before I left him. It was nice but we were both itching to know the outcome. So I snuck out of the garage and got three different tests. He met me at the house and kept giving me water. I was bouncing and rocking back and forth on my toes. The house was quiet; all I could hear were the waves crashing. He was reading and rereading the instructions. "Bri, you just pee and the results pop up." I pull the boxes away from him. I know he's nervous, I am, but I've dealt with this before. Grabbing his hand I run my thumb over his palm. "Remember, whatever happens, we'll deal." He nods and pulls me in for a kiss.
We had gotten calls from the team all week about Mia and Vince. The ole' Coyote was ecstatic and bought tons of baby stuff. It made Mia cry and she was hurt that she even doubted him for a minute. Chris said it just gave Mia an excuse to plan the wedding and baby showers. I told her Mia can't plan her own baby shower. Chris and I talked for about an hour last night and I told her all about our scare. I even cried a little, knowing how terrified I was the first time around. But she talks me through it and I feel like she's holding my hand. If it were Mia we would both be freaking out and the whole house would know. I told her to hurry up and set a freaking date already, I'll be there in whatever she makes me wear. She laughed and said that Hector bet her money I wouldn't wear a bridesmaid dress, but he's going to lose that easily. She's been family since Leon brought her home, tried to save my babies lives and kept my family together when I was falling apart. I'll do anything for her.
The timer we set beeps and I bite my lip not wanting to walk in there just yet. Suki is pregnant. Mia is pregnant. It'll be the baby boom all over again. Taking small steps I head that way. I can hear him behind me breathing and I reach for his hand. I hate comparing these things, but I know I would have never reached out for Dom's support like I do Brian's and he would have never freely given it. All three are set out on the counter, one flashes NEGATIVE, another has a blue dash and the last just says NO. I don't know whether to be sad or jump up and down. He pulls me down onto the floor with him and we just sit.
"I don't know if I wanted you to be pregnant or not. I'm happy and I'm sad, I can't describe it." Nodding with him I press my arm up against his. "I kind of can't wait to see our kids, but maybe right now isn't the time." He smiles and laughs a little. Quirking my eyebrows at him I wait for him. "You said you can't wait Let." Laughing out loud at his childish ways I kiss him sloppily on the cheek. I love how he can make me feel 17 again with just a smile. Pulling me off of the floor, he tosses the tests and we head back into the kitchen. He pulls out his keys and kisses me on the cheek. "Where are you going?" He grins and jogs towards the door. "Condoms!" I laugh out loud at his back as he runs down the steps. "Get a super pack!"
We spent the rest of the night making up for all the sex we didn't have and laughing about the craziness of our lives. But watching him sleep, I wouldn't change it for anything. Slipping on his shirt I tip toe into the kitchen and pick up my phone. He answers on the third ring. "Hey Le, catch you at a bad time?" I hear giggling in the background and Vince yelling something at him. "Your dog ate one of the toys Vince bought for the baby and he's saying we have to kid proof him. Mia thinks it's hilarious and Jesse said if he touches the dog, he's going get him neutered." I crack up at the craziness that still resides in that house. I miss them so much. "When you headed back Letty girl?" I smile at the nickname, missing it, him. "I'm going to talk to Brian about it, he's got to tie up some lose ends and then we're headed back." I hear his feet pad across the floor before his arms wrap around me, head resting on top of mine. "It'll work out perfectly because I have some sketches I want to have produced." He goes on about Mia wanting me to design some clothes for the baby, which she's already told me a thousand times. We talk for a bit more and Brian even has a little conversation with him. They talked a lot while I was away, but I didn't know how close they had become. Brian hung up, telling them he would get us out there by next week.
Licking my lips I kissed his chin and then his neck. "Nope, don't tease me woman." I laugh and he picks me up, placing me on the kitchen counter. His lips meet mine and his hands travel under my shirt. "You race Julius tonight." I nod, licking his lips and locking my legs around his waist. "That doesn't mean I can't get a little pre race action does it?" All I have on is his shirt, so I navigate his hand down my stomach and in between our bodies. "Does it?" He growls and attacks my lips. "Don't play with fire woman. We don't have nearly enough time to do that." He was right, even our quickies were drawn out. Pouting, I suck his bottom lip and nibble. "Fine, but you so owe me after I win this."
Detangling myself from him I go hop in the shower and ready myself for tonight. This was going to be a crazy race. Julius knew the streets of Miami like the back of his hand, and here they didn't do straight shots. I had gotten the scoop from Suki and she took me on some test runs. It's not bad and a hell of a lot more of an adrenaline rush. I'm excited to see how it'll all go down. Julius has been talking crazy shit ever since the race came up and he's a flirt. Brian laughs at him every time. The man is flashier than Mia and that's saying something. I'm ready and slipping on my shoes when Brian comes out of the bathroom pulling on his shirt. He looks hot and his stubble just makes him look yummier to me. "Will you be my trophy?" He pulls me up from the bed and scoops me up by my ass. "Anytime, anyplace." I stick my hands in his hair and tug a little bit. "Good cause after I win, I want you." Kissing him makes me even hornier than before and I'm ready to race now so I can get a piece of him.
