What Happens in Vegas: Doesn't stay in Vegas

Chapter 35

I take some of you didn't like the cliffhanger...

Hopefully this will put some nerves at ease.

Also getting used to a new time zone sucks.

Ohh there may or may not be a reference to a book/movie series in this chapter.

Enjoy...

Carinas POV

Doctor Wilson nods. "Yes that can be confusing. The date is based on her last menstrual cycle not the date of intercourse. We kind of skip over that period of time."

I take a look towards Maya and exhale a breath that was caught in my throat. She didn't lie. She didn't play me. Everything I felt was real. Every touch, every smile was genuine. My heart beast fast. I don't think I have been more relieved than I am right now. It is my bambino. My Maya is carrying my bambino. I hold up the picture in my hand and can't help but smile. It's my bambino and everything is right in the world. I kiss her head and take her hand. My Beautiful innocent wife.

Maya hasn't spoken a word since the doctor's office. I wonder if she knows I didn't believe her. Damn it. I'm an ass for that. She has always been honest with me. I see her taking a breath. "Carina, you..."

I cut off her words before she can say anything more. "Maya. I am sorry. I doubted you back there. When the nurse said your gestational age, I was crushed. I thought the worst of you. My mind went to places it shouldn't have gone to. You are the best person I have ever known. I am so sorry bella."

She takes my hand. "I understand. I was confused too. I am glad you asked and thank you for acknowledging your mistake. You know, it could've turned out really bad between us if you hadn't said anything to the doctor."

I kiss her hand. "You really are an amazing woman. The best wife ever."

I love my Maya. It took me until now to realise it. The thought of not having her almost killed me. Why did it take me so long to figure it out? How could I have doubted her? How could I have doubted my love for her? I know she loves me wholeheartedly. There is no question about it.

She shows me every single moment of every single day. My heart beats faster as my revelation takes hold of me. I want to hear her say it. "Tell me you love me."

She squeezes my hand. "You first." I knew she would say that. If that's the way it has to be, I'll wait until the perfect moment. If I have to say it first then I will.

I kiss her hand then tickle her leg. "What's for dinner, my pregnant wife?" She giggles and pushes my hand away to stop the tickling.

She puts on her thinking face looking up towards the sky. "Mmm I could go for some pasta."

I nod my head with a smirk. "Italian it is then." Hopefully in more ways than one. Maybe later...

She finishes every bite of her dish and still orders Tiramisu. She offers to share with me, but I am full. She shrugs her shoulders. "Okay, Your loss then." Every time she takes a bite, she savours the flavours.

I give in a steal a bite. It does taste better than the last one we had together. "What is in this? It tastes different?" I take another bite and slowly savour the flavours.

She giggles. "They put amaretto on it. Good huh?"

I nod and take another bite, savouring it as well. I wash it down with her water. My drink would have clashed with the flavour. I stopped drinking alcohol outside of our home since with Maya and our little bambino in the car I am carrying precious cargo. She finishes her dessert but I want one more taste. I trace my tongue along her lips to which she opens up and massages my tongue with her own. "Mmmhmm delicious. I am in the mood to taste you now bella."
