Frankie took a few seconds to register the words that came out of her mouth. 

"She's having my baby?" he thought. He jumped to her, pulling her in his arms, and kissed her hard on her lips.

"Brie, are you sure?"

"That the baby is yours?"

"No, that you're pregnant."

"Five pregnancy tests say that I am."

"I love you, I love you so much. And I already love this little bean inside of you," he said as he peered at her stomach. "I can't believe you have a little person in there."

"Frankie, you're way ahead. I doubt he or she even looks like a person right now. I'm only two weeks late, so about one month pregnant?"

"What happens now?" he asked cautiously as the realisation of their situation hit him. "I want you here with me. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

"I don't know yet. I don't know how I'm going to tell Joseph about this. Things are more or less over between us, but I don't know how he is going to take this," she said.

He kissed her. Softly at first. "You have no idea how much I've missed you," he whispered against her lips. She leaned forward and kissed him.

"I've missed you, too."

He stood up, pulling her with him. Her hands wrapped around his neck as he lifted her off the ground and carried her to the bedroom. He slowly laid her down on his bed and removed his shirt. He climbed over her, his hands on either side of her head, kissing her, and slowly pushed his tongue inside her mouth. She pulled him to her, pressing her body against his. His hand found its way to her thighs, slowly lifting her dress up as it slid up her body. She sat up and lifted her arms up, helping him take off her dress. She kissed him along his neck and shoulders as he removed her bra.

"You're so beautiful" he murmured as he stared at her almost naked body. He bent down trailing soft kisses down her neck and took her nipples in his mouth one at a time. She arched her back, lacing her fingers in his hair as he continued downwards, slowly kissing her stomach, down her naval. Pulling down her knickers, he spread her legs as his fingers found her core, his lips following soon after, taking her in his mouth. She gasped as his tongue swept against her clit. Her soft moans growing louder as he pushed his fingers inside her and suck her. Her legs  tightened around his shoulders as he got lost within her. She moaned beneath him, arching her hip pulling his head deeper between her tighs. She groaned with frustration as he pulled away. He needed to be inside. He quickly took off his trousers and boxers and crawled over her. His shaft standing hard. 

"Brie," he moaned against her lips as he slid slowly inside her. Her hips guiding him deeper. He rose slowly, before pushing back in. She held on to him as he moved over her. He kissed her deeply as he pushed himself in and out, their bodies moving as one. Their love consuming them. He felt himself slowly going over the edge just as she shuddered beneath him.

"I could kiss you forever," he whispered as they caught their breath, kissing her softly. He rolled on his back, shifting her to lie on top of him. She lifted her head up, looking at him, her arms crossed over his chest. "I love you," she smiled. "I'm sorry it took me so long to realise it."

"We have the rest of our lives, Brie."

"I need a few days to sort things out with Joseph."

"Don't take too long," as he kissed her forehead softly.

Two dats later, Frankie called Brianna.

"How did it go, love?"

"I haven't told him. I haven't found the right time to do it."

"Brie, there is no right time. The more you wait the harder it's going to be."

"I know, I know. I just can't find the right words."

"Ok. How are you feeling? Have you booked your doctor's appointment yet?"

"The nausea seems to be getting worse. I don't remember being this sick with Nicky. Next week I have an appointment. Are you coming with me?"

"Of course, I want to see our baby. Try and eat something light and get some rest. I'll call you later today. Love you"

Frankie sat deep in thought as he hung up the phone. He picked up his phone again and called his assistant Adam. "Hey, Adam, please clear up my schedule for today. I have some personal matters to attend to."

He picked up his car keys and left.

Twenty minutes later, Frankie walked up to the receptionist, "Is Joseph Miller in?"

"Yes, do you have an appointment?" she asked as she tried not to stare at him.

"No, I don't. But could you tell him Frankie Sims would like to see him?"

"One moment, Sir." She picked up her phone and dialed Joseph's number.

"Mr. Miller? I have a Mr. Frankie Sims in the lobby for you. Yes, Sir. Yes, Sir."

"Mr. Sims, Mr. Miller is currently in a meeting right now. He will be done in about ten minutes if you do not mind waiting for him?"

"Yes, that's ok. I'll wait, thank you."

"No problem, he will be down to meet you once he is done."

Twenty minutes later, Frankie was about to leave when Joseph walked across the lobby.

"Frankie," Joseph greeted him, "can I assume the purpose of your visit is personal?" he asked glancing at his watch.

"Yes, I apologise for not calling before hand. Can we talk?"

"Sure, we can go to my office."

They rode the elevator and walked to Joseph's office in silence. 

"Have a seat," Joseph gestured to the chair in front of his desk as he closed the doors and the blinds, indicating to his staff that he is not to be disturbed.

"So, what can I do for you," he asked as he leaned back in his chair.

"Look, I'm sure you know I am here about Brie."

"Yes, but I'm not sure why you are here about her."

"Look, we've known each other for a long time. I'm sorry things happened the way it did. I am. Honestly, I'd have punch the bastard that would have the audacity to seduce my wife. But I love her, I've loved her since university. And I never thought we would be were we are right now."

Joseph stared at him. He had no idea what Frankie was doing here. 

"Thinking about it, I should have punched you. Instead, I was a coward and took my anger out of her. But I still don't know what you are here for. It cannot be just to apologise."

"You have to let her go."

"Excuse me?"

"I know you two have a child together, but you have to let her go and be happy."

"Did she ask you to come here?"

"Actually, I believe she would actually kill me if she knew I was here. But, look man, she is so scared to hurt you again. After what you have done to her, I'm not sure why she would be, but that's just Brie."

"So, I see she told you about Lucy."

"Pretty much."

"All I asked was that we wait until Nicky was a bit older. She is free to see you. I told her that," he said tight-lipped.

"Joseph, she's going to have my baby."
