In Another Life

Chapter fifty four: Vicy

I crossed my arms as I watched my husband talk with Mia's cousin, and her giggle. My blood was boiling as I chopped carrots with Mia, then accidentally cut my finger "Fuck" I hissed and she laughed "Vicy, I'm sure she isn't trying to steal C.C."
"Then why the hell is her hands on his chest at the fucking moment?!" I hissed which made her step away from me and Rikki laugh "Easy there, she might be trying to get him, but he wouldnt-"
"Rikki he hasn't even kissed me since we got here. I feel like I am losing him" I said, and Rikki sighed "Want me to talk to him?" He asked, I shook my head "No. But, expect a blow out later" I hissed, banging a pot down on the stove and putting in the vegetables as Rikki and Mia shared a look together.

I sat on the front porch cigarette in one hand and a beer in the other and saw C.C. walk down the porch steps and say "Bye!" I yelled "Where are you going?!" And he turned as he walked backwards through the yard "Uh, to buy a.. Turkey for Mrs. Kingsleigh!" He said with a smile and ran off.
I busted my beer as I set it on the porch, and stomped after him. I was pissed. I was mad. About to cry.
So, I am going to kick somebody's ass.
I followed him to a jewelry store, and watched as he talked with the jeweler from the window, I narrowed my eyes and watched him hold up something and smile paying the guy for it. When he walked out I watched him stuff a box into his pocket and walk across the street.

*C.C.*

"She is going to love it, C.C." Issac said, I smiled looking down at the ring "I hope so...I can't thank you enough for showing me that jewelry shop" I said "Its newnto Brooklyn apparently" she nodded "Yes it is, the engraving is unique she is going to love it" she said, as she handed me the box back.

*Vicy*

I opened the door to the room me and C.C. are staying in, and froze.
"Oh my God" I whispered.
He was holding Issac's hand, I put a hand to my stomach and ran down the hall "Tori! Its not what you think!" He yelled, and I shook my head as I went into the kitchen where everyone was, C.C. wouldn't cause a show in front of everyone, this I knew well.
So close to our fucking anniversary of when we first met that day in Brooklyn 1980.
Vicy cleared her throat "I have a announcement." Everyone looked at her as she smiled "I'm pregnant."
And hell broke loose.
