I'm sorry (A James Hetfield story)

Metal Is Cool

"Hey look who..." Lars looked down and the up at me, he smirked, I gave him the finger.

"Stop." I snapped at Lars, then everyone sat around, still eating, maybe this isn't the best time to make an announcement, I chuckled to myself, Denise and I exchanged funny looks, I cracked!

"Everyone!" They were still eating and ignoring me, I got pissed! Denise put her hand on my chest. She kissed my cheek for a moment and brushed my hair out of my face.

"Hey!" Everyone froze and looked at me, that's better! Woah okay, ha-ha.

"Yeah?" Kirk said to me and gave me a funny look, Lars and Rob did too.

"Ah well, I would like to say um." Jeez Het, just spit it out.

"Yeah." The kids yelled at me; kids calm down.

"Well, what I want to say is, that uh, Denise and I are pregnant." Rob smirked at me and walked up to me and hugged both Denise and I, she blushed, and Rob kissed Denise's cheek.

"I told you!" Kirk gave Lars $10, hey that was a bet? I hit Lars and then he gave me the $10, to make it fair, Denise put her arms around my waist and held me close, she was like my man, ha! 

"No one is going to take me, remember earlier?" I mumbled to Denise and breathed on her.

"Yes." I put my hand on her belly and the babies kicked my hand hard.

"Oh, and we are having triplets!" I yelled at everyone, Kirk and Rob gave Lars each $5!

"Aw!" The kids all came up to Denise and I and hugged the both of us.

"Easy kids." I told Toni, Joey and Sammy, Lars came over to bust my balls.

"So, you're having triplets, how and the hell did that happen?" I rolled my eyes.

"Shit happened, I don't know." Lars took a step forward and hugged me, then he kissed my cheek too, alright go ahead, just once, Denise just stood there and laughed with me.

"Come on Lars, leave them alone." Kirk grabbed Lars by the hand, and they went to get some food outside, thank God, I love those guys, but they are too much for me, just wait for 5 more months, then people will be screaming, oh just the thought of it. I pulled Denise on my lap.

"I rather have you kissing me instead." I whispered into Denise's ear; she nodded yes.

"Did it bring you flashbacks of the Load days?" Yeah, it did, terrible!

"Yeah, the music was great but not the image." I was honest, Denise nodded yes with me.

"I agree, I miss your long sexy hair." Denise whispered to me; I nodded back with a yes.

"Yeah, I miss it, hey, ha-ha save that for the bedroom." I thought to myself more, as Denise said that I wasn't embarrassed, I just thought it was too cute, and I wanted it to be quiet. 

"Okay, how about some food?" Aw you don't have to, but come on, let's go see.

"Okay, but don't carry anything, let me." I got a plate, actually Denise handed me 3 plates.

"I'll take 2 hamburgers, with chips, a water with salad." Woah, okay but hey it's healthy. I sat Denise down at our kitchen table, I didn't really eat anything at the moment, I just got some ketchup and mustard, I sat next to Denise, and I rubbed her stomach, jeez those kids like food too I guess, I could tell which one was the boy, or there must be two boys because I felt double kicking. I looked at Denise and we both smiled, I looked into her eyes. 

"Hey whoever is kicking mommy, calm down, she is eating for four." Denise giggled, we smiled.

"Right, mommy is feeding you three also." After, they all calmed down and relaxed, finally.

"After, how about we go relax in our bedroom." I whispered to Denise; she rolled her eyes.

"We have a house full of people, we can't." But I want you. Damn you, Lars!

"But I want you." I whispered to Denise, she sighed, when she thought for a few moments. 

"I want you too, but can we wait, Please, for me." Sure, I'll wait. 

"Sure." I kissed Denise's cheek, and I went to get a plate of food. All of sudden Jason showed up out of nowhere, I rolled my eyes, got my food quickly and went back to Denise.

"New Kid! oh hi!" I rolled my eyes at the sight of Jason.

"Hey guys." Jason and his wife Patty smiled at Denise and I, ha-ha yeah whatever!

"What are you doing here?" Denise blushed at the sight of Jason.

"Heard you were having a party and Lars invited me." Well, I didn't!

"Fine, you can stay, eat and then leave!" Woah James, cool it. Jason walked away and got food.

"James!" Denise was still eating her chips; she licked her fingers and gave me a look.

"Well! He was hitting on you last time he was here, so what was I supposed to say?" Truth.

"Okay, you're right, my big strong man, who can kick other guys asses." Babe I'm eating!

"Ha-ha later for that talk, I'm eating baby." Good God! Now she wants me? 

"Okay, sorry but later I guess." We should get a hot tub or something.

"Yeah, you know what we need? A hot tub." Cool man!

"Why?" So, I can cuddle with you and be warm and toasty.

"So, we can cuddle and be warm, but that's after the babies are born." Right Het.

"True and okay." Denise placed her chair next to mine and we held hands, and looked into each other's eyes, we kissed briefly, someone almost lit the grill on fire, oh where the hell is Rob? I looked around, "Oh come on guys! You only have to attend to the damn grill!" I kissed Denise and went to find Rob, Lars or Kirk, that was supposed to keep an eye on the grill!
