What Dreams May Come

Chapter Eight

It has been a couple of weeks. Me, Mike, and Vic have gotten into a routine. There is always someone with me at all times. I go to work on Monday and Fridays the rest of the time everything is done over the phone. Today I go back to the doctor for a sonogram and the results of all the tests that was done. I am currently sitting on the couch watching a movie waiting for Vic to get through with a band meeting. Everyone is locked up in Vic's office. I have to be at the doctor in three hours they better be done by then. I am so nervous about what the results might show. I just hope that the baby is healthy. I have really gotten attached to the idea of having a baby with Vic. I still haven't told Rachel that I am pregnant. I am going to have to tell her soon. I am going to skype her tonight after I talk to the doctor and know what is going on. I have completely lost interest in the movie I am supposed to be watching. I still haven't figured out exactly what I am going to do about me and Vic. I know that I still love him, but I still can't look at him without seeing him fucking his ex-girlfriend. I am not sure that is an image I will ever be able to forget. My heart still aches so badly even though we are somewhat on talking terms. I still can't for give him. Vic is trying really hard to prove that he loves me. I want him in my life and not just because of our baby. It would destroy me if Vic cheated again. I am so confused, hurt, and angry. I try so hard to not be so angry because Vic is really trying. Sometimes I even convince myself that I am not angry anymore, and then everything comes flooding back just like it happened yesterday.

Hey Em you want to grab a bite to eat with the guys before we head to your doctors appointment?

That sounds good Vic.

What do you want?

It doesn't matter I am not that hungry. Whatever everyone else wants will be fine. Vic I'm scared.

Me too Em, but everything is going to be okay whatever happens we will face it together.

Thanks Vic I know that I have been really bitchy toward you. All you have been trying to do is be there for me.

I can handle anything that you throw at me as long as you are giving me a chance. I love you Em that includes all of you even your bitchy side as you call it. I want a life with you Em. I want us to have a family.

I want that to Vic, but I am struggling. Every time I think I have gotten past it I have a flash back of you and her together, and everything comes flooding back. The hurt won't stop. I have this constant ache in my heart. I need you Vic, but it hurts so much to be near you. I just want to forget and let everything go back to the way it was. But the image is burned into my brain, and it is trying to destroy me.

I made the biggest mistake of my life because I was scared. I don't want to lose you. I want to show you something Vic says taking my hand and leading me to his room. I bought this right before I turned stupid. Vic hands me a black velvet box.

I slowly open it inside is a beautiful pearl and diamond ring.

I was going to ask you to marry me Em's. I still want to marry you. I would marry you right this minute if you would have me.

Something in Vic's eyes finally convinced me that he means every word that he has been saying to me.

Okay.

Okay what?

Okay I will marry you as soon as possible. I love you Vic, and I want you to be my forever.

Vic's hands are shaking as he slides the ring on my finger. Vic wipes the tears from my face and I do the same for him. Does this mean that I can finally kiss you again?

Anytime your heart desires I say before Vic's lips settle on mine.

Hey guys Oh what did I miss Mike asks?

She said yes Vic says. You want to be my best man? We are getting married as soon as it can be arranged.

What the hell happened in the few minutes that the two of you have been alone?

She finally forgave me Vic says.

I am suddenly starving for some pizza. You think that will be okay with everyone?

I am sure that will be just fine Em. We better go before we run out of time.

How did the meeting go?

We got everything straight. Let's go find my babies.

We left Mike standing in Vic's room really confused.

Hey everyone is pizza okay. Em had a sudden craving.

Mind telling us what the hell is going Jiame asks?

We are getting married Vic says before walking out the door and to the car.

When did that happen I thought the two of them were still working things out?

Don't know, but let's go find out Tony says.

Come on guys are the two of you going to tell us what the hell is going on?

I told you she forgave me and we are getting married as soon as we can.

We want details Jaime whines.

Some things are just none of your business Jiame Vic says.

But I am your best friend.

Actually Em is my best friend Vic says with a big smile. All you need to know is that I want Mike to be my best man.

And Rachel is going to be my matron of honor if she is still talking to me after I tell her I am pregnant. Vic it is almost time for my appointment we need to get going. We will let everyone know something as soon as we can.

Before we know it we are sitting back in a room waiting for the doctor.

Everything is going to be alright now I can feel it Em.

I really hope so Vic.

Okay Miss Waters. We have all of your test results and everything looks good so far. I want to keep a close eye on you just to be on the safe side, but I believe everything is going to be just fine. I want to see you in two weeks.

Thank you Dr. Black.

Keep the stress levels down, and just enjoy thinking about your bundle of joy.

Let's go celebrate with the guy's.
