The morning light was shining furiously through the window making me cover my eyes with the blankets. I was beat. Yesterday after my scan, we celebrated Raj's birthday and he kept saying it was the best because of his 'babies' meaning me and our actual unborn baby. We danced, ate, and had fun all afternoon until some of us started crashing. Like me, I crashed second. And now I'm laying in bed, I'm guessing Raj carried me up here and changed my clothes. He is caring and loving. Every time I think about the first time we 'made love' I smile. It was the first time for me and the first time for him, the first time I told him I loved him and the first time he said he loved me back, the first time I felt alive in a long time, the first time I saw a future ahead of me. Now look at where we are, about to become life partners. I love everything about him. His smile, his laugh, his hair, his body, his... everything! I want to spend the rest of my life with him, and I will. We will have many kids and live in a big house. As I was thinking about my kids and who they would like, Raj wrapped his arms and leg around me like I was his prisoner. I couldn't help but burst with laughter. He winced and opened his eyes looking at me tiredly.
"Good morning sunshine" he said trying to smile away his tiredness.
"Good morning Raj, sleep well?" I said and looked down at his leg wrapped around me. He looked with me and unwrapped his leg and smiled at me.
"Sorry, in just over protective of my babies" he said smiling with his eyes closed. I laughed and he smiled as it looked like he was falling asleep again.
"Raj, we have important work today" i said as he pulled me closer to him.
"We've already got your scans done, what else baby?" He whined kissing my neck.
"Before we can have our baby, we have to get married... and before that can happen we have to get engaged" I said as I placed my hands over Raj's which were squeezed around me.
"It's been almost a whole month since our original engagement, how are we gonna get family here quick" Raj said as I wiggled in his arms.
"Well... why don't we go talk to our parents" I laughed out and heard Raj grunt before his arms unlaced from my body. I turned around and saw Raj shuffling towards the bathroom. I smiled and sat up kicking my feet over the bed. I walked to the closet and changed into a floral dress. When I walked out I saw Raj looking out the window and mumbling.
"What's wrong" I said walking over to him.
"Your sisters are here" he said pointing out my three sisters who were talking near the small gazebo. I squealed and ran out of the bedroom and down the stairs right outside. I ran over to my sisters and gave them all hugs.
"What are you guys doing here?" I said excitedly.
"We got a call from mom, something about you and Raj..." my sister Alicia started.
"About you being pregnant!" My other sister Sandra finished excitedly.
"When were you gonna tell us?!" My youngest sister Gracie squealed out as she pulled me into another hug.
"When you guys came for the engagement" I said pulling away from my sister.
"How'd you know who take it..." Sandra said staring at the ground.
"He was not happy at all" I sighed. I actually was really hoping that I could make things some what work with Sameer and at least be friends... but I don't think he'll want only friendship.
"So... we barely met your fiancé... or his siblings... when can we meet them... officially" Alicia said smiling. One thing to know about my sisters. They see something they like, they want it. I won't lie, Raj is hot... and his brothers are attractive. So meeting his siblings could be good and bad. My sisters started squealing and I felt a kiss being placed on my shoulder.
"Hey baby" Raj whispered. I smiled and turned giving him a real kiss. A quick one but enough for my sisters to freak out.
"Raj! We meet again!" Sandra said laughing a bit.
"Your gorgeous up close" Alicia said looking at Raj up and down.
"Shut up loser, he's Meera's." Gracie said nudging Alicia's arm.
"Nice to finally establish an interaction... instead of you guys staring at me" Raj said smiling at my sisters.
"We haven't really met your siblings either" Alicia said twirling her hair and smiling innocently.
"Wanna meet them?" Raj said raising his eyebrow but still smiling.
"Yes!" All my sisters responded at once.
"Be right back baby" Raj said kissing me and running inside. It was noon and there was no reason Raj's siblings wouldn't be up.
"He's a keeper" Gracie said winking at me.
"Does he treat you well?" Sandra said looking serious.
"Well? Yeah, of course. He treats me like I'm the only person that matters, he's soft and gentle with me, his words are caring and sweet, he's never forced me to do something I didn't want to do... I love him, I love Raj" I said feeling like I was gonna cry. God! When your pregnant... your hormones are all screwed up.
"Awe Meera!" Alicia said before giving me a hug. Soon all three of my sisters were hugging me and I felt like my life was complete. No mistakes, just perfect.
"Oie!" I heard Raj's voice from behind us and we all separated and turned around. Raj's sibling were all lined up like they were in the military. One by one my sisters jaws dropped. We slowly walked over to them and my sisters slowly regained their posture.
"Sandra, Alicia, and Gracie meet my brothers and sisters" Raj said and stepped aside.
"Hi I'm Sandra" my sister said shaking Arush's hand. I motioned Raj over towards me and nobody even cared. My sisters were to tangled up with Raj's brothers while Raj's sisters kept complimenting my sisters.
"Well, soon this will be how big our family is" I said giggling. Raj smiled at me and placed his hands on my stomach.
"Don't forget about our baby" he said sweetly. I looked up from his hands on my stomach and held his eyes in mine. Love. Love filled his eyes as he looked at me while a smile plastered to his face.
"You know," he started and placed his hands on my waist. "Sometimes having a brother or sister is good while growing up" he said pulling me roughly against him.
"Raj!" I yell whispered. He was smirking and it was evil... but I liked it.
"What?" He said innocently still smirking.
"You are so-" I started but was cut off by his warm soft lips. I couldn't resist him and wrapped my arms around his neck as his hands ran up and down my waist.
"Inside" he grunted as he picked me up. I laughed a bit by his quick actions but wrapped my legs around him so I didn't fall. He smiled at me as we started to go inside.
"Meera! What are you doing!" Gracie yelled but I nuzzled my head in Raj's neck and laughed a bit.
"At least they're thoughtful enough to get a room." I heard Kabir say making Raj laugh. As I was carried upstairs I could see my sisters and Raj's siblings smirking at us from the bottom of the stairs. When we entered the bedroom and the door was locked Raj placed me down and attacked my lips. Even tho I could tell he wanted me badly, he was still gentle and handled me carefully. I snaked my arms around his neck as he played with the zipper of my dress. I pulled away abruptly when my lungs were giving out. I rested my forehead on Raj's as he caught his breath with me. He smiled and I placed my hands on his chest feeling his heart beat.
"I love you baby" he whispered.
"I love you too" I replied smiling. As I was about to go in for a kiss there was an alarming knock at the door.
"Raj! Meera! Please come downstairs... now!" I heard Divya yell in a panicked tone. Raj spent no time in fixing me up and rushing out of the bedroom door with my hand intwined with his. As we reach the top of the stairs, the front door was wide open and something wet... maybe water? was dribbled on the dark oak flooring. Raj tightened his grip in my hand and walked slowly but paced down the stairs. When we reached the bottom, we dodged the small puddles of liquid dribbled on the floor. We started towards the front door and the second we walked outside my heart stopped beating.
"Why!" I mumbled to myself. I was scared. Raj was scared and was telling me by his body language. I looked over to see his facial expressions. When I did, I mean the very second I looked over... a fist collided with the side of Raj's face knocking him right into me. I wrapped my arms around him as I lowered myself down, now sitting on the ground I looked at the blood running down the side of Raj's head.
"Raj!" I screamed. I was terrified. What the hell was going on! I ripped a piece of fabric off his shirt and placed it on the cut bleeding on his head. Then I heard a car door slamming shut making me jump. I looked up and over towards the driveway. My heart racing with questions. I heard the person laugh evily and I held my breath as they spoke.
"Poor poor Meera, when will you ever learn" the person said behind two buff men. How'd they know my name?!
"Who are you!" I shouted feeling frustrated.
"Oh honey, I'm your worst nightmare."
