My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 15

*Jazzy POV*

-One week later-

We were loading boxes up in the moving truck and in our cars. I was carrying a box downstairs and Santo took it from me. "Baby, I could have got it." I said. Santo kissed my cheek. "You're pregnant." He reminded me. I giggled. "I didn't forget. It would be hard to with all this morning sickness." I said. Santo smiled at me. "It'll be worth it." He said. I smiled and agreed.

"Santo!" I yelled from my room. He came running in my room. "What is it?" He asked. I giggled. "Calm down, I just need help getting the box off the top shelf." I said. He sighed in relief and got the box for me. It was the last box in my room and closet and bathroom. Santo carried it downstairs and put it in his truck.

We made sure nothing was left behind then drove to our new house which is in Statesville. It's right on the line of Statesville and Troutman. It's gonna take an hour to get there. Ray wanted to take the highway instead of backroads.

"Santo, I'm hungry." I said. He turned off the exit. "I know how to get to the house, I'mma get you something to eat. Then take the back roads. Call Ray and tell him." Santo instructed. I did as told. Ray said that was okay.

"What do you want, mama?" Santo asked me. I thought for a minute. "A honey mustard chicken wrap from McDonalds." I said. Santo nods. "Okay, anything else?" He asked. "Pepsi." I said. "And?" He asked. I giggled. "A cookies and cream milkshake." I answered. Santo nods.

He got me and him so food. I ate all mine in like five minutes. Santo had got the same thing as me. It took him a little longer to eat because he was driving. I cut the radio on and 'Say My Name' came on. Santo and me were singing along. I recorded him singing it. "Go, Santo. Go, Santo. It's ya birthday." I said. Santo chuckled and kept singing. He didn't realize I was recording, when he did, he stopped and laughed. "Don't post that anywhere." Santo told me. I smiled and kissed his cheek. "Only I get to hear you sing. And our kids." I said. Santo grabbed my hand and kissed the back of it.

"Jazzy, you okay, baby? You look kind of... I don't know how to describe it." Santo said. We were on the backroads driving to our new home. "Pull over." I said. He did and as soon as I opened my door, I threw up. It was on the side of the road and, thankfully, it didn't get on me or the truck. Santo slid beside me and held my hair with one hand and rubbed my back with the other.

"Okay, I'm good now." I said, after rinsing out my mouth. Santo helped me back in the car and closed my door. He walked to his side and got back in. Before I could buckle up, Santo pulled me beside him and buckled me up in the middle seat. He buckled himself up then wrapped his arm around me and kissed the side of my head.

We got home and I went to my room that already had the bed set up. Actually, my room, that I shared with Santo. Ray figured we may as well share a room. One, I can't get pregnant, cause, well, I already am. And two, Ray told Santo he has to take care of me when I'm throwing up and having mood swings. And three, we're having a baby. Of course, we're sharing a room. The baby's crib is going in here too.

-At Home-

"Babe?" I asked. Santo looked at me. "What's wrong?" He said, standing up and cupping my face in his hands. "Why do you love me?" I asked. He smiled and sat back on the edge of my, our, bed. He pulled me so I was standing in front of him and looking down at him. Santo put his hands on my hips and I put my hands on his shoulders as he began to talk.

"I love you, because, you're beautiful. You're smart, caring, loving, sweet, funny and you're my definition of perfect. I love you because you are you. I love you because you're the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. I love you because you are beautiful. You have a beautiful face, body and most importantly, you have a beautiful heart. I love you because you don't care if I'm broke or rich, ugly or hot. I love you because you aren't selfish and don't care about what's in my bank account or what I look like. You only care about what's on the inside. I love you because of that. I'm in love with you because of everything I just said." Santo told me. I smiled big as he continued looking in my eyes.
