The Player's Losing Hand - (Love Island the Game FanFiction)

Chapter 16: Baby, Baby, Baby.....

Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is gonna change
I close my eyes
Begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything

With arms wide open
With arms wide open

Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything

"Damn, Priya really came through didn't she?" Henrik asked, impressed.... Popping the last bite of his sandwich in his mouth he took a long drink off his water bottle and looked down at Skye.

"Actually, yeah. she was AMAZING... I know she used to model, but I think she missed her calling as an actress. I feel 100% about bringing her in on the plan. She was livid at how Bobby manipulated so many of us, and once she found out about the baby she was adamant about protecting us from Bobby."

"So.... The IMPORTANT thing is, you feel confident that Bobby bought it?"

"Yup, completely... if you had heard the tone of his voice, you wouldn't have a doubt in the world." She answered definitively.

"And Priya didn't question the timing at all... I mean the concern we have about people wondering if the baby could still be Bobby's?" he asked hesitantly.

Skye looked up at him, worry etched in her eyes. Softly she asked, "Are YOU worried for what other people might think?... or... are YOU questioning if you're the father?"

"OH! God no! Skye, I'm SO sorry.... That's not what I meant at all!" Henrik apologized. "This is sooooo MY baby! No doubts whatsoever! And after what the Doc said with ovulation dates, and the fact that we were kinda not so careful with birth control those couple of times in the jungle..." he said tapering off and then sheepishly smiling down at her....

Henrik put his water bottle down and then turned towards her, cupping her face in his hands. "Please Skye," he said leaning in and softly kissing her... "please never doubt that I want this baby and I know in my heart it is mine. Okay?"

Skye smiled into his lips, reassured."Okay."

"So, about Priya though, did SHE question it?" he continued with his original question.

"Nope. In fact, interestingly enough, Priya is surprisingly quite knowledgeable regarding ovulation cycles. Seems she's done a fair bit of researching in case... well, as she's quite a few years older than us and wants to have children, she wanted to learn all she could about when her best chances at ovulation would be for her every month. So that when she DOES find the right guy, there will be less left to chance." Skye answered.

"Huh, really? Would never have guessed that about her." Henrik mused, "she always came off as a little too goofy to put deep thought into things like that."

"She'll surprise you babe... she's got layers." Skye quipped, then continued on with her explanation.

"Anyway, I told her that our OB already confirmed it for us, but if it made her feel more sure I had no issues with her running her own math. Based on my normal cycle information she worked it out for herself and agreed that based on ovulation days, you are indeed my baby daddy." She teased, giving him a quick kiss causing him to laugh.

"Okay baby mama," he smiled and captured her mouth in a longer kiss.

"I love you Henrik," she sighed against his lips.

"I love you to babe," he kissed her again, then leaned over placing his gloved hand over her belly. "And I love you too little bebis."

"Hen..."
