Colby Brocks Housekeeper

Chapter #61

After I said this, Elton's eyes got kind of wide.

"I mean, when the time comes, I would love to." He said. I kind of chuckled, he thought that we were trying to pull a prank on him.

"Okay, what if I told you that the time is now?" I asked. His eyes got wider.

"Are you being serious? Are you pregnant?" He asked me. I nodded, smiling at him. His face broke into a smile and he engulfed me in a hug.

"I can't believe this! You're going to be parents!" He said to me and Colby. We laughed at him because he said it as if we didn't know already.

"No way! We are?" Colby said sarcastically. We all chuckled at each other. I looked at Elton and saw tears welling up in his eyes. I gave him a soft smile and reached my hands up to his face to wipe away the tears.

"It's okay, Elton. There is no need to cry." I said to him. He returned the soft smile.

"You are having a kid. My basically daughter." He chuckled at the last sentence and so did I. Elton wiped his face of any tears daring to fall.

"I'm really happy for you guys. You are going to be amazing parents. I just know it." He said ruffling Colby's hair. Colby chuckled like a little kid and had a big grin on his face. Colby and Elton had drifted a bit when Elton moved out but when I got back from Ireland, Colby would turn to him for help. They got close again, which is great for Colby because he always admired Elton. Seeing them like this made me really happy. We sat and talked for awhile more. We talked about our kid but we also talked about other things. Soon, when it was late, Colby and I decided it would be best to head home. We said bye to Elton and he hugged us bye and kissed my stomach, saying goodbye to his granddaughter. We got in the car and started to head home. When we turned the car on, the radio turned on too. Adele was playing and I smiled. I really loved Adele. The song playing was "when we were Young" which I loved. I obviously started to sing.

"Everybody loves the things you do
From the way you talk
To the way you move
Everybody here is watching you
'Cause you feel like home
You're like a dream come true
But if by chance you're here alone
Can I have a moment
Before I go?
'Cause I've been by myself all night long
Hoping you're someone I used to know" I started to sing along with Adele. Of course, like all other songs, I was singing the best I could.

"You look like a movie
You sound like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young" The chours hit and I looked to Colby, grabbing his hand. He was smiling, he loved when I sang to him. As the song continued, I sang along with it. As the ending came, I looked back to Colby.

"Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time
That we might be exactly like we were
Before we realized
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless
Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old
It makes me reckless
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
When we were young" The song ended and Colby looked at me and smiled.

"Your voice was beautiful, as always. I love it when you sing to me." He said. I giggled.

"I know you do. That's why I do it so often. It makes you happy and that makes me happy." I said smiling. Colby looked at me, quickly cause if he stared that would be bad driving. (drive safe kids, a lot of deaths are caused due to unsafe driving. We can't have any of that now can we? Anyways go ahead Nancy...) Thank you, writer. Anyways, Colby quickly looked at me and smiled.

"You're so beautiful." He said. I blushed at his comment. He would often say this to me but I blushed every time.

"I am so happy that you are the mother to my baby." He said. This made my eyes widen and fill with tears. His voice was very genuine when he said that. It meant a lot. I was always afraid about being a mom because of how my mom treated us and then left. I was afraid I would be a bad mom. When Colby said that it made me really happy. It was also a bit of hormones mixed in with that. A few tears slipped down my face.

"I'm happy that I met you. I'm happy that I was fired from my job and I was your housekeeper. I'm happy that we have been through all that we have, even the heart breaking cause it brought us closer. I'm happy that we are married. I'm happy that you are the father to my child. I. Am. Happy." I spilled out to Colby. We had pulled up to our house by now and I looked at him. He was already looking at me. Tears in his eyes too.

"I'm happy too." He croaked out. I smiled at him and he smiled back. We embraced each other in a hug. We pulled away and kissed each other. It was a passionate kiss. The kind that's says "I really love you and everything about you". When we pulled away we rested our foreheads together and looked into each other's eyes. His deep ocean blue eyes had mesmerized me again. They always did whenever I looked into them. I remember the first day we met, I had gotten lost in his eyes and when he pulled me back to reality I was super embarrassed. Now it was a common thing we did. We would sit in silence and stare into each other's eyes. It was like reading a book of the others emotions.

"I love you." Colby said, finally breaking the silence. I smirked at him.

"Not as much as I love you." I said. He pulled away from me and scoffed.

"Yeah right. I love you to the moon and back." He said. I smiled.

"I love you more." I said.

"Fine I love you to the moon and back over a million times." He said. I rolled my eyes.

"I love you this much." I said holding up my hand and making the okay symbol with my hand. Colby raised an eyebrow at me.

"You love me an okay amount?" He asked. I laughed at him.

"No. It's a circle. A circle has no sides so it never stops. Meaning my love for you is forever and always." I said. Colby smiled at me.

"Where did you get that?" He asked. My smile fell a bit.

"My dad and I would do it to each other all the time. He told me about it one day and we did it everyday after that. It was our final words to each other. He was in the hospital bed and looked at me. He smiled as big as he could, which wasn't much, and held his hand up and made that symbol. He said 'I love you' and I held my hand up too. I told him 'forever and always'. His smile somehow got bigger and..... he passed." I recalled the memory. It played back in my head. Tears were falling out of my eyes again. I wiped them away and looked up at Colby. He was looking at the ground.

"Nanc-" he started to talk but I already knew what he was going to say. He was going to say how sorry he was and that it really sucks. I already knew that, though. I shook my head at him.

"It's okay. Let's just move on. Okay?" I asked. He nodded. I nodded back at him and stepped out of the car. We walked into the house and I went straight upstairs. Colby followed close behind. We got ready for bed and climbed in.

"Goodnight, bub. I love you." I told him. He nodded and looked at me. He held up his hand making the symbol.

"That much." He said. I nodded.

I hope you all enjoyed that chapter! A few things: the song I used is called "when we were Young" by Adele. I didn't use the full song so if you want to, you should definitely listen to it. Also the symbol thing I'm talking about is like this 👌🏼 me and my dad do this to each other all the time so I thought it was fitting for Nancy and her dad to do. Also it would be cute if Colby started doing it to Nancy. Anyway yeah that's it! If you enjoyed this chapter please leave a vote and comment. Thank you so much for reading! Peace out!
