Roman's Little Sister

THIRTY-FIVE

          One Year Later...

"So how does feel to be married Mrs. McIntyre?" I ask Nia.

  "Oh my God, I can't believe it actually happened. It took me a long time to realize that I deserved his love. Thank you for reminding me." she replies as she hugs me.

  "Speaking of marriage, where are your hubbies?"

  "They're getting drunk with Roman." I respond turning and pointing to them.

  "Well at least they aren't trying to kill each other anymore. I think that's worth a toast don't you?" Nia grabs two glasses of champagne.

  "I can't."

  "What do you mean you can't? It's my wedding D., you have to drink with me."

  "I know, and I'll drink with you in spirit, but I can't actually drink."

  She did the glasses down and starts looking at me suspiciously.

  "Are you? No. Seriously, how far along are you? What did the guys say? Are they excited?"

  "Nia! Ssh. The guys don't know yet because I just found out this morning. I'm going to tell them tonight."

  "I'm so happy for you cuz. I call dibs on being the Godmother."

  I smile as she hugs me again. It's been a long and eventful year. It wasn't easy at first. Roman still gets a little uncomfortable around us, but I think he is finally starting to come around.

  It's late by the time the guys are ready to go.

  "Hi handsome, I could use an escort to my room."

  "And that's my cue to leave. Love you little sis." Roman says as he hugs me goodbye.

  "We'd be more than happy to escort you to your room Mrs. Ambrose."

  "Ambrose-Rollins dick. Why do you always leave that part out?"

  "Because your so forgettable Rollins."

  "Alright can you guys please stop arguing? It was a beautiful day and I don't want it ruined."

  "We're not arguing Darlin, we're just messing around."

  After we finally make it to our room, I go to run me some water, but I'm quickly followed by Dean and Seth.

  Dean is propped up against the door while Seth is leaning against the counter.
 
  "Are you going to tell us what's been bothering you today Sweetheart?"

  "What are you talking about?"

  "Don't play dumb Darlin. You hardly touched your food, you didn't drink anything except water at your best friends wedding. So whatever is on your mind just spit it out already."

  I turn slowly. I've never been scared of my guys. I am however scared of how they will react to this news. We never really talked about kids. If we want them. When we'd want them.

  I take a deep breath and look at them and blurt out the news. "I'm pregnant."

  I look to each of them trying to gauge the reaction.

  "Pregnant?" asks Dean

  I nod my head confirming what I had said.

  "How long have you known?" asks Seth.

  " I found out this morning. I'm sorry, I know we never discussed this before, but there it is."

  Seth closes in on me grabbing my face in his hands and kisses me slowly before pulling back.

  "Don't ever be sorry for giving us a baby Dez. We're a little shocked, but it's good news. Our family is growing."

  "You're not mad?"

  "Of course not."

  "Dean? Are, are you mad?"

  "No, Darlin. I'm so far mad."

  "I don't know which one of you is the father, I mean we can do a DNA test after the baby is born if you want."

  "No. It doesn't matter whose DNA the baby has. He's all of ours Darlin."

  I smile, relieved that they don't want to do DNA tests. They just want to be Dad's.

  "You do know that he could be a she though right?" I ask

  "Oh fuck me Dez. Don't put that shit out there. When we have a girl, she will never be allowed to leave the house. Ever!" Dean states.

  "Yeah, I'm with Dean on this. Our daughter is never going to be allowed to be out of our sights." Seth continues.

  "We'll see about that" I say laughing.
