The Boy in the Band

So were having a baby

So that was it Joe knew I was pregnant. He actually seemed 

to be excited about it. Me  on the other hand I cant seem to shake the nerves and doubt that keep plaguing me.The hospital released me a short while later and we headed home. From the moment we pulled into the driveway Joe was just extra sweet and attentive me all I wanted to do was hit the couch and not think about it even for a few minutes, its all that has occupied my thoughts since I had found out. I grabbed the remote clicking on the TV settling in on Blue Bloods when Joe walked in. 

"baby girl we gotta talk"

" I know its just can we not right now"

"fine how about you relax Ill make dinner reservations and we talk then"

"OK"

Joe walks over leaning down kissing my head

"I know your scared but I promise it will be alright"

So she is pregnant, I didnt expect this but the truth is I couldnt be happier. I know people always seen me as the playboy, honestly thats why Donnie has that name for me because I really was but ever since Sierra come into the picture its diffrent. I always wanted kids, a wife the whole thing but I had a image to maintain and after awhile you just become that way. Its obvious that she is scared and has doubts but Im not going anywhere I just have to make her realize Im not going anywhere. When they discharged her they told us we have to get a doctors appointment soon so they can monitor her blood pressure and if it goes out of control she would be put on bedrest. As I look at her from the kitchen I really cant even put into words what I feel about her, I get we havent been together as long as say Donnie and Jenny but it doesnt make what I feel any less. I love her I love this baby.

I glanced up and see Joe watching me from the kitchen, he looks deep in thought makes me wonder what is going on in that head of his. Ive been thinking exactly how shitty ive been to him recently and he really doesnt deserve it, he really is good to me. I think its the stress of everything then finding out Im pregnant I snapped. He really does seem happy that were having a baby.

"So I made the reservations for 7"

"great, Hey Joey"

"Yea baby"

"Im sorry"

" For what"

"for being so nasty to you lately"

"baby its ok, I get it"

"no I shouldnt have took it out on you and hid the fact Im pregnant from you"

"Its alright baby I understand, why dont you just relax Im going to handle some business in the office, just holler if you need me"

"ok"

"I love you"

"love you too"

It wasnt long till I drifted off to sleep only to be woken up a few hours later to Joe rubbing my back

"baby....baby wake up"

"Mmmmm"

"baby wake up"

"Joey what time is it"

"6 we have 7oclock reservations"

"ok"

I sit up as Joe sits next to me reaching behind the sofa
