"San," Britt whines as I pepper her belly with kisses.
"What? Can a man who just found out his wife is pregnant show some appreciation?" I ask backing away before she can slap me.
"You're lucky I love you so." she says settling herself back into me.
"How about I take us all out to dinner tonight your choice." I suggest.
"Okay," she says smiling.
I lead her out of Swedish Hospital which is where my son, yes I have a feeling where going to have a boy, will be born.
Four days after we were married we had the house packed up and started our drive up to Seattle, Washington. She chose Seattle because her grandma lives up there and she wants to be close to some part of her family. I actually like it up here which surprise me. They actually have a football team which my lovely wife lets me get seasons tickets for Abe and me. Moving here was the best thing I've ever done okay second to marrying my Angel. It's been six months since we moved and we're finally settled down in our new house.
"San, daycare just called and Diana bit some kid again." she says tugging me towards the car.
"Great now we have to find another daycare." I grumble as we get into the car.
"Since you're working as the head of security for Microsoft maybe I should stay home with the twins." she says giving me a you're amazing look.
"Is that what you want?" I ask taking her hand and kissing it.
"Yes, I want to be home with them not having someone else always watching them. Maybe when they all get in school I'll go back to work." she says and I can't help, but fall even more in love with her.
This woman is amazing and I'm so glad she's mine. Though if she does want to go back to work I'll quit my job to stay home with the kids, I'd do anything for my family.
"I'll run in and get them." she says getting out before I can say anything.
I'm sort of glad that this daycare didn't work out. The head lady gave me the creeps; she was staring at me licking her lips. Since I've been with Brittany I get the creeps whenever other women stare at me. I love my wife and no other woman could ever replace her.
"Daddy, mommy says I start school in a week and no more care." Abe happily says getting into his booster seat.
I personally don't think he needs a booster seat after all he is five, but Brittany thinks he does and I want sex so I just agree.
"That's great little man." I say kissing Britt quickly as she gets back in.
We eat an early dinner at McDonalds because our three kids are screaming that they want Donalds. It wasn't the dinner that I want to buy for my family, but if it makes my kids and wife happy then I'm fine with it. We spent a good hour there and by the time we get home the twins are exhausted so Brittany puts them to sleep while I watch TV with Abe.
"We go to football on Sunday?" Abe asks climbing on my lap.
"Yes we are so you're going to have to wear your new jersey." I whisper wrapping my arms around him.
"I like here," he says yawning, snuggling into me.
"Good, so do I."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"I can't believe we're going to have another baby." I whisper rubbing her still flat stomach.
"Babe, I think after this we should stop." she whispers moving my hands up to her boobs.
"Okay,"
"Really?" she asks turning in my arms.
"Before I met you, I never thought I'd want kids so I'm fine if you don't want to have any more after our newest little pea." I tell her, it's her body so it's her decision.
It's true until I saw my Angel pregnant I never thought about kids.
"I love you so much." she whispers.
We just lay in bed, me holding her. It's moments like these that I love so much just that we're able to lay in silence together.
"You want to come to the game on Sunday?" I ask thinking it might make a wonderful family outing.
"San, I love you and your abnormal obsession with football, but I will never spend three hours in the rain and cold sitting watching that. That's something that only you and Abe want to do." she says.
I guess now that she says that I remember the one time I took her to a 49ners game. It was a disaster to say the least. She had me running around to get her all sorts of food and we had to leave at half time because she got bored.
"Your right, I will have more fun with just Abe." I say also remembering that we have the twins too.
"Of course I am. Now go put our son to bed so I can go to sleep I'm exhausted." she orders.
"Whatever you want."
I get up slowly giving her several kisses before heading out the door. Peeking into the twin's room I see that they're sound asleep so I move on to Abe's room. He has Dumbo on, but is sound asleep. I turn off the TV and tuck him in.
"Good night little man." I whisper kissing his forehead.
Watching him sleep I'm reminded of why we left Vegas. Sure it was fun there when I was single and before my Angel had Abe, but since he was born all I've wanted to do is leave. I want them to feel safe and to be kids not having to worry about someone trying to kill them. I especially don't want them to know what I've done.
"San, are you coming to bed?" Brittany asks.
"Yes Angel,"
I follow her back into our room.
"I'm glad you decided we should move." I whisper climbing in bed behind Britt.
"We both decided to move." she says turning in my arms.
"No, I wanted to move the moment Abe was born." I say leaving off when she finally decided.
"That's because big badass mob boss Santiago Lopez was terrified that he'd let his son down." she says pinching my cheeks.
"I don't want them to know what I did before you had Abe and I decided to give it up for the two of you." I say rolling us over so she's straddling me.
"Honey, I don't think you could let Abe down. He loves you more than anything." she says running her fingers along my abs.
"But what if he hates me." I softly say.
It's something that's always scared me, that one day he'll hate me and I'll have to leave my Angel. I would never force her to choose between him and me.
"Sanny," she softly says taking the sides of my face and forcing me to look at her. "Abe loves you and if we have to tell him about your past and mine then we will. But there is no doubt in my mind that he will never hate you. You're his dad and he looks up to you."
I start to smile when she starts talking about Abe looking up to me. She always knows what to say to make me feel better.
"You know I was terrified when I gave birth to Abe that you would runaway not wanting to deal with another man's son." she says wrapping my arm around her waist.
"I could never leave you."
It doesn't take long until she sound asleep on top of me. Sometimes I wonder why we even have a king size bed as she always ends up on top of me.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"San! Hurry up!" Britt yells.
I nearly fall over trying to get my pants on while going down the stairs.
"One of these days you're going to fall on your face and I will laugh." she says buttoning my pants and straightening my shirt.
"Usually you're removing my clothes not helping me get in them." I joke earning a quick kiss.
"Go make sure Abe's ready, he's in the kitchen. I have to get the twins." she orders.
I salute and she pushes me towards the kitchen.
Walking in I smile when I see Abe sitting at the table holding the paper up as he sips what I hope is orange juice from my coffee cup.
"What are you doing Abe?" I ask pretending to be mad.
"Being you," he happily says.
"Oh really, so what are you going to go to work for me?" I ask smiling at how big he's smiling.
"Can I?" he asks, his eyes so big and hopeful.
When he looks like this all I can think of is Brittany.
"You're just like your mommy." I whisper picking him up.
"Buts mommy says I like you." he pouts clinging to my neck.
"You are Abe, but you're also like her." I explain carrying him into the living room looking for Brittany.
I don't want to put him down. If I do then it becomes real, that my little boy is growing up.
"Santiago, put him down and take your daughter." Brittany orders holding out Diana for me.
I should have known that she wants me to take Diana. She's a handful and according to my mom just like I was, were as Natalia is just like Brittany.
"How's daddy's little girl." I coo tickling her.
"Come ons or I be late." Abe says grabbing both our hands.
"Yeah San let's go." Brittany teases.
I huff, but follow them out to the car. Britt must sense my hesitation in leaving cause as soon as we strap the twins in she wraps her arms around me and puts my hands on her stomach.
"Just think in eight months we'll have another baby." she whispers knowing exactly how to calm me down.
"You know I love the girls too, it's just….." I trail off no wanting her to think I don't want our girls.
"It's just he's our first born and a boy." she finishes.
She's prefect. There's no other explanation for it.
"San, are you going to drive or do you want me to?" she asks walking towards the driver side.
"No," I say pulling her back into me. "I'll drive."
Like hell I will let her drive while she's pregnant. Hey it's not my fault I'm over protective and often over barring according to my wife. I'll never get tired of calling my wife. Even after six months I still can't believe I get to call her mine for the rest of my life.
"Still such a gentleman." she softly says kissing me.
"I late!" Abe shouts.
"Let's get this show on the road." I say jumping in and starting the car.
"Finally," Abe huffs and Britt giggles.
The drive to the school is filled with Abe asking questions about what school is like and the twins babbling trying, I assume to be like their big brother.
Once there Brittany helps Abe out and straightening out his clothes while I put the twins in a stroller.
"Come on Daddy, our big boy wants to go to class." she says tugging on my arm as Abe tugs on my leg.
"Okay, okay," I chuckle at how excited my two blonde Angels are.
The teacher seems nice enough. Britts talking to the woman and I suppose I should have been listening, but instead I'm checking out the classroom. Gots to make sure my son will be safe.
"Santiago," Brittany says drawing my attention back to her. "You need to sign this." she says handing me a piece of paper.
I skeptically look at the paper making sure I'm not going to sign away my son's life.
"San, its just permission to release him to either your mom or my dad." Brittany sighs and I quickly sign it.
"Why?" I whisper handing the paper work to the teacher.
"In case they're up here." she softly says.
With all that handled I go back to scanning the classroom. It's not like I'm going to let Abe spend time without me or Britt without knowing who's going to be there.
"San, stop worrying so much. He'll be fine, look he's already made some friends." she says giving Diana a binky.
"But what if one of them hurts my baby." I pout disgusted with myself that I sound so weak.
"You had a background check done on all of the staff." she says pulling me out.
I huff, but allow her to pull me out after all it's not like I can't come back later under the guise of going to work.
