My Sweetest Sin

Chapter 23

It's been 2 months since we moved back and it couldn't be more perfect. I'm just over four months and we finally got to the point where I'm starting to show so we agreed to tell the kids this weekend when the kids get in from Katrinas then tell Kay and Pop when we fly in on Saturday. Joe will be back home tonight he had to fly out to LA with Jordan and the boys for some press work. I'm completely comfortable at the house at this point now and I've learned my way around Tribeca, Joe going so far as even buying me a new car so when he was gone I was able to go and do what I wanted, most days I handled the everyday stuff and worked on school, I started back online, Joe has been so over protective with me being pregnant that he be happy if I just kicked my feet up all day but that's not me so we came to a happy medium and decided online school. I'm not gonna lie and say I'm not homesick at times, I miss Steph even though Jordan Jokes we are on the phone more than they are in reality it's probably true. I miss the crew so fuckin much I have moments were I miss my old life my life before Joe blew in like a category 5 storm. Would I trade our time together not for anything in this world but that little hood bitch is still there and some times I have a hard time keeping her in check.

I fell back against the couch with my MacBook and tried to focus I just couldn't and my phone buzzed
Joe: Hey My Bella
Reign: Hi My Boo what's good
Joe: finishing up last bit of press and we fly out in a few hours
Reign: What time do you get in
Joe: 7 at JFK
Reign: We Miss you, Logan called last night and I heard Katrina scream at him before hanging up his phone, all he wanted was to say goodnight
Joe: Bella I don't know what to do with her anymore
Reign: I'm so sorry baby, you just gotta let the lawyers handle it
Joe: I know it's just bullshit
Reign: I know
Joe: anyways nuff of her, how is the baby
Reign: fine
Joe: have you been eating and sleeping enough
Reign: Yes Joe
Joe: What my girls been up too
Reign: School mostly, Delynn FaceTiming with Draven whenever she can manage
Joe: Well I get the kids tommorow and we can have a short breather from Katrina
Reign: I know, so I got the girls and you already packed for Mass I just have to do me
Joe: Baby you didn't have to pack me I was going to pack you and me after I get home
Reign: It's Fine
Joe: Bella gotta run and finish this up, I'll see you in a few hours baby
Reign: See you soon Boo
Joe: Bye My Baby

I tossed the phone down on the sofa next to and headed to the kitchen my head was in no way into studying at this moment. I riffled through the pantry till my eyes fell upon it my pregnancy craving dill pickle Pringle's, they completely gross out Joe but it's like heaven to me. I grabbed a bottle of water and flopped on the sofa turning on the TV, my eyes fell upon a news story with the guys and the smile just grows on my face. He has seriously managed to get passed that wall. I couldn't wait for him to get back home, Val was going to pick him up at the airport but I called Val and said the girls and I were going to the airport to surprise him. Val insists on going just for added security Joe and I are not public by any means and the separation and divorce not known to public, we didn't know what kind of backlash it would cause.

The girls flew in the house a couple hours later and after homework and snack were out back playing with Duke well we waiting till 5 when we had to head out to JFK. I feverishly got the girls ready before I headed up into the room to get ready finally setting on a Christian Serinano dress Joe had got me last week and Jimmy Choo heels, "Mommy you look like a princess" Emma said with a smile. "Mommy can I ask you something""sure Del Baby""Is Joey gonna be our new daddy?" She floored me I never expected that question I know they all have grown extremely close to Joey as well as all the McIntyre's but I never thought they think of that. "Baby you have a dad""Yea I know but he is mean and he hurt you""I know baby""We love Joey can't he be our daddy", just then my phone rang all I could think was thank god", I grabbed my phone and answered quick. "Hello""Hey lil mama""what's up Val""y'all almost ready I'll be there in ten minutes""yep just come in doors unlocked""you seriously shouldn't do that ReRe""why anyone comes in Duke will chew there face off he is super protective when Joe isn't home and it's just me and the girls.""Still ReRe there are fans that know the address""Fine, does anyone know his flight is coming in""not a soul but us""good, let me finish up, I'm upstairs with the girls so like I said come in""be there in a few""ok bye""bye". I quickly finished my eyeliner and put on my Jeffree Star Unicorn Blood lip color since it was Joes favorite and just of bit of Chanel # 5 and I was ready and just in time too since I heard Duke bark and the bedroom door open a second later. "ReRe""Uncle Val!!!" All the girls screamed jumping on him. He walked over and hugged me "ready short stuff""short stuff really""Yea short stuff""Jesus yes I'm ready", I grabbed my purse and headed out locking up well Val loaded the kids in the van. The hour drive to JFK seemed to drag on and take forever, I just couldn't wait for Joe to be home.
