Stay- JJ Watt Fanfic

Chapter 12

LUCY’S POV

~3 MONTHS LATER~

"JJ!" I yelled out.

"What?" He said appearing in the doorway.

"I need help moving this box, it’s too heavy." I said.

"I thought you were done unpacking?" He asked picking up the box.

The move to Houston wasn’t as stressful as I thought it was going to be. JJ and I settled in quite nicely and had a routine. I loved running my own company. But mostly I loved the time JJ and I got to spend together now that I lived here. Our relationship went from complicated to mature in a matter of months and it was all thanks to the growing baby inside me.

"I am. Jackie sent this for the baby. I imagine she’ll be sending a lot more stuff for the baby before its even born and even after that."

"Our child’s spoiled already." He smiled.

My heart always skipped a beat when he said our baby or our child. He was very protective of my bump. Especially out in public. We didn’t want anyone to know and we did our best to hide the fact I was almost six months pregnant. It was starting to get harder to conceal given the fact that I was getting bigger all the time.

"You have any names picked out?" I asked. We’d been back and forth with names because we decided not to find out what we’re having until delivery.

"I’m drawing blanks on it again." He sighed.

"I thought of some I liked." I said.

"What are they?" He asked, sitting the box down in the semi finished nursery.

"Dustin James for a boy because it would be weird calling him JJ jr. all the time. And Sophia Marie if it’s a girl." I said.

"Marie is for your middle name right?" He asked, a smile forming on his face.

"Kudos babe. You remembered my middle name." I teased.

"Of course I did. I really like those names. If it’s a boy we can call him DJ." He said.

"You’re still holding out hope it’s a boy huh?"

"Don’t get me wrong I’d love a girl but just a son to carry on my name is something pretty awesome to think about. Regardless I want a happy healthy baby." He said.

"I’d be happy with either." I smiled putting a hand to my growing bump.

"Is the little Watt kicking?" He asked.

"Our child is going to be far from little considering the size of you." I joked.
