Pregnant By A Gangster

Ch.15 Right Choice

JOVANNY'S POV.

I slept over at Chanelle's house last night so we can talk about the whole living situation. It was definitely a long ass conversation. But we came down to a decision and now we just have to tell everybody and get all the planning started.

We both wake up and brush our teeth and all that then go downstairs. We go into the kitchen and see Stella cooking breakfast. "good morning you two" she says to us. "morning, what are you cooking?" Chanelle asks her. "I baked your favorite, Banana nut muffins, and I'm making breakfast croissant sandwiches with some Hashbrowns extra crispy on the side" she says.

I notice Chanelle look at her weird like she suspects something. "what?" Stella says. "you're making all my favorite things that I like to eat for breakfast, somethings up" she tells her suspiciously. "no!" Stella says in a high pitched voice. Chanelle just stares at her.

Stella sighs. "okay, you're mother told me this and I know you won't like it" she says. Chanelle looks at me. "you're uncles are coming over, specifically to talk to Jovanny" she says. Chanelle just stares at her like hell no.

"oh my god" she says as she covers her forehead with her hand. "did I miss something?" I ask. "my dads brothers and my moms brothers, they're, really protective, when we told them I was pregnant, they were gonna hunt you down, but they said they'd like, be chill if they sat down and talked to you" Chanelle says.

Great. Lucky me. I work with mob bosses and gangster all the time. Shit that's how my whole family is. But this is Chanelle's family, and the fact that they wanna talk to me cause I got her pregnant, intimidates me. "how many?" I ask her.

"my dad has 3 brothers, Emiliano, James, and Vinny, and my mom has 2, Fransisco and Carlo" she tells me. I exhale. "what time are they coming?" she asks Stella. "in about, 3 hours" she says. Chanelle nods. "you should go home and get ready after we eat, and I'll do the same" Chanelle tells me. I nod. We eat and finish our breakfast.

"don't be worried alright?" she tells me as she walks me out. "why would I be worried? 5 probably angry mobsters wanna talk to me cause I got their niece pregnant" I say sarcastically. She smiles. "they'll understand, it takes 2 Jovanny" she says as we get to my car.

"I'll see you later" I tell her then kiss her. "I love you" I say as I get into my car. "I love you too" she says. I go home and take a small nap before I shower. After I showered gotta start getting ready. I wanna dress appropriately so I put on a white t-shirt, navy blue cardigan, black jeans, and some white Jordans.

When I'm ready I spray cologne and leave back to Chanelle's house. I wanna be there before her uncles get there. I knock on the door and Chanelle answers it. She got ready too and just like always she looks beautiful. "hey come in" she says as she let's me inside. "my uncles called, they're gonna be here any minute" she tells me.

"I'm gonna tell them about our decision" I tell her. "I know Jovanny, and I'll tell my mom while you talk to them" she says. Then there's a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Chanelle's mom Lucina says as she goes to the door to opens it. First Chanelle's dad Victor comes in, then her brothers, and her uncles.

All five of them are those old school mobsters. Suit and tie with a gun and cigar probably on the inside of their jackets. They all have those New Jersey / Italian / Godfather accents.

All 5 of them smile a her. I can instantly feel that loving protective vibe they have over her. "you're stomach is getting bigger" one of her uncles tells her as they hug her. "how are the twins?" he asks. "they're good, growing, it's a boy and a girl, we're naming them Lucca and Ariyah" she tells him.

"beautiful names just like you" he says with a smile. "Uncle Carlo this is Jovanny, my boyfriend and the father" Chanelle introduces. "hello sir nice to meet you" I tell him as we shake hands. "nice to meet you too" he says. "and Jovanny this is my uncle Emiliano, uncle James, uncle Vinny, and my uncle Fransisco" Chanelle introduces me to the rest of them.

We all greet each other. "Let's take this to my office, Stella can you bring 10 glasses of ice and my bottle of Hennessy Cognac" Victor tells her. She nods and goes to the kitchen.

Victor leads all of us to his office. We all take our seats and sit. "cigars?" Victor asks as he pulls out a shiny wooden jewelry looking box and opens it. "these are the best Cuban cigars" he says as he gives each of us one. Once we've all lighted our cigars the conversation begins.

"so, Jovanny, our whole family couldn't be happier for Chanelle and the coming of these two kids, but we would all like to know what your intentions are with our niece" Emiliano tells me. "well, I do plan on staying in the business and mob and taking care of Chanelle and the twins" I tell him. "is she living with you?" Francisco asks me.

"yeah, actually we talked about it last night and we decided that it's best if, Chanelle stays here and I move in with her, she's comfortable here and especially since we're having twins, I want her to have all the help she can get from me, her mom, and Stella and I figured we can just stay here until the twins are 3 years old then we can get our own place and all of that, I don't want to leave her alone with 2 babies when I have to leave for business" I tell them.

I see a look of relief on Antonio, Sebastian, and Cesar's faces. "that's good" Vinny says. "she's still only 17, and I'm glad you're being reasonable about this situation" he tells me. I nod. "thank you" I tell him. We continue coversating and talking about the twins and the business. I feel better since now everyone knows our decision to stay here. I'm pretty confident about this whole situation.
