Mine (Book 2 of the His Series)

Fifty-One

Ellie

Josh and Leo had left for Shellville to pack up our things, and so while they were doing that, the girls and I started painting the nursery.

"I can't believe I'm gonna be an auntie!" Brandi exclaimed, dipping her brush into a green canister.

"I can't believe I'm gonna be a mom." I sighed

I slapped the roll onto the wall and started spreading the paint over the white surface.

"Do you guys know what you're having yet?"

"We will next week. Appointments on Tuesday."

"You already know I'm coming to see the baby."

"I have a show that day. Sorry Els." Amber groaned

"It's okay, just come by afterwards, I'll tell you about it."

"I will. So, how are you feeling about the whole engagement thing? It's exciting."

"It's something to get used to. I honestly never thought I would be this happy so soon. My therapist must be magic."

"Or maybe it's all that Vitamin D you've been getting." Brandi winked

I blushed furiously and turned back to the wall.

"Ah, so you have been. How's he in bed?" Amber giggled while taping up the windows in the room.

"Phenomenal. But he's got the damn stamina of a Stallion. I swear sometimes I feel like I won't be able to walk the next day."

We all fell out in a fit of giggles and continued to paint. We spent about two hours painting before we asked more questions.

"And what about you Brandi, how are you an Josh doing? How's married life treating you?"

"It's great you know? It's nice to have someone to wake up to who kept his promise to still be there in the morning."

"Unlike Caine?" I asked her

"Yeah. You know he came by the restaurant the other day? Tried to tell me he was 'sorry' while my sisters were probably giving him 'the eyes'. It was so embarrassing. I was glad Josh wasn't there cause I know he would've kicked his ass."

"Why is Caine even talking to you? Didn't Josh tell him to get lost once before?"

"You see how well he listened to him? God, I don't know why he won't leave me alone. Obviously my sisters want him, why won't he go pester them?" 

"Cause men are jackassess. Caine does know you're married right?"

"Yep. I'm sure my sisters told him about it, probably thinking that now they could have him to themselves."

"I wouldn't put it past those bitches to try a Devils threesome every night." I scoffed

I know, I hardly knew her sisters, but from meeting them at the wedding, those bitches were vile. Ugh I despised them.

"And the worst part is? My sisters have always taken pride in making me feel inferior to them. They're twins and they're older than me. I wasn't even supposed to be born. I was a surprise for my parents, but never the less, they still love me. I guess my sisters were jealous since I'm the baby and my parents always doted on me. So they always berrated me with insults of how I should've been aborted or that I was adopted."

"They are so vile!" I protested

"I guess them sleeping with Caine knowing how I felt about him was just  another jab at me. But who cares right? I have Josh now, and I know he's not going anywhere. Though they have certainly tried to get him to stray too."
