Belle's P.O.V.
After I drove off, I kept thinking of what I said. I don't know what we are. Are we still boss and employee? Are we dating? Or are we just 2 people having 2 babies together? I want to know. I can't let what happened with Ben's father happen again. I won't let it happen again.
I don't want that to happen this time. 3 kids is hard to raise by yourself. Hopefully Brandon will stay and help. I don't know what I'll do if he doesn't. I get home 10 minutes later. I get out and Ben runs to the front door. I get there and unlock the door. Ben walks in and takes off his shoes and coat and puts them where they go. He's always good about keeping things where they go.
After he makes sure to put everything away before he ran to his room. I take off my coat and hang it up and close the door and lock it back. I take off my shoes and put them by the door to dry. I walk to my room and change. I change into jeans and a shirt and start walking to the kitchen. I see Ben at the bar doing his homework.
He does this all the time. I've never had to tell him. "Ben I'm going to start dinner ok. Let me know if you need help." I said and kissed his forehead. "I will mommy. I love you." He said and hugged me. "I love you too." I smiled. He's always been a sweet boy.
I start making dinner and Ben's at the bar in the kitchen. "So Ben how would you like little brother or sisters?" I asked. Ben looked up from doing his homework and looked at me. "I would love to have a little brother or sister!" He smiled. I smiled and laughed a little.
"Ben, honey, mommy's having a baby." I said. "You are?!" He shouts. I smile and nod at him. "Actually, baby, mommy's is having two babies." I said. "That means two brothers or sisters?" He asked. "Yes. You could have either 2 brothers, 2 sisters or a brother and a sister. They would be twins." I smiled. "Like you and Aunt Bella? Like Uncle Drew and Uncle Dylan?" He asked. I nod my head smiling.
He gets down and starts shouting and jumping up and down. I put dinner in the oven when the door bell rang. I looked at the time and see it's 4. Ben is too busy jumping up and down to notice. I wipe my hands and go to the door in my apron. I open the door and see Brandon and Bre. "I know we're early but we really need to talk." Brandon said. I nod.
"That's fine. Come in and the kids can play or something. Dinner isn't going to be done for a while." I said. I let them in and took their coats and hung them up. "Please take off your shoes and out them there." I asked pointing to where Ben and I have our shoes. They do as I asked and I go and clean up the kitchen. Ben is putting his homework in his backpack when I return. "Finished your homework?" I asked. He nods. "Bre is here. You two go play in your room. Ok? Just clean up when your finished." I tell him. He nods happily. "Of course mommy. I love you." He said and comes up and hugs me. "And I love my new baby brothers or sisters too." He said. I smile. He's really excited to be a big brother.
Bre and Brandon are standing in the doorway of the kitchen watching us. "Go play. We'll call you when dinner is ready." I say. Brandon comes and sits down at thee bar where Ben was. The kids ran off to Ben's room to play. "We need to talk." Brandon said. "About what?" I asked. "The babies." I nod. "And us." he added. I snap my head at him. "Us?" I asked. He nods. "Yes. Us." I nod and finish cleaning my mess. "Want coffee or tea?" I asked. "Coffee please. Black." He said. I pour him his coffee and I make my tea.
I hand it to him and I take my tea and go to the table. He follows me. I sit down and he sits next to me. He moves the chair to where he's facing me. "Belle. I want to be in the babies lives. I want us to be together. I want us to be a family. I'll adopt Ben. I'll treat him as if he's my own. Please." Brandon begged. What? He wants us to be a family? He'll adopt Ben? "I can't keep you out of the twins lives. Their your children too. As for us being together I don't know." I said unsure. "Please Belle. I'll do anything to show you I really want us to be a family. that I want us to be together. Please." He begged.
Should I give him a chance? "I don't know...." I said. I look into his eyes and see nothing but truth. I sigh. I blow on my tea and take a sip. "Fine. I'll give you a chance. But the minute you shrew up it's over. Got it?" I caved. He smiles. He leaves his coffee on the table and I set my tea down. He gets up and pulls my chair out. He helps me up. I give him a confused look and he picks me up and spins me around. I giggle and hold onto him tightly.
He puts me down and smiles at me. "You wont regret this. I promise." He vowed. I smile. I hope I won't. He starts leaning in. I met him half way and our lips met. Shocks went through my whole body. I smile into the kiss. He pulls back and rests his forehead on mine. He looks into my eyes and I can see happiness shine in his. My smile gets bigger. The timer in the kitchen goes off and I move out of Brandon's arms.
He grabs my hand and we walk to the kitchen together. I grab the oven mitts and pull the dish out of the oven and set it on the stove to cool down. "Brandon can you go check on the kids please?" I asked. He nods. "Of course baby. Anything for you." he said and kissed my cheek. He pulls my hand up to his lips and he kisses the back of my hand. I mentally melt. He's so sweet!
He smiles and goes to where he can hear the kids laughing. I sparkle cheese on our meal when the door bell rings. I finish and wipe my hands on a towel. I go to the door and open it. When I did I never expected to see who was at the door. I don't say anything. I just stare at him. "Baby who's at the door?" Brandon says coming into the living room with Bre holding on to his chest and Ben on his back. I look away from him and look back at the people who are here. "Kids go into Ben's room and stay there until dinner." Brandon said. He bends down and they let go and run to Ben's room. Brandon comes up and wraps his arms around me.
"What are you doing here?" He asked the girl. She's holding the hands of two little girls. She looks familiar. "I'm here to support my husband. What are you doing here?" She asked. "I'm here with my girlfriend, Anna." Brandon said in a hard voice. "What do you want?" I asked. "I want to see my son."
