Bora Bora Baby

Settling in

"Oh my gosh," Frida said as she plopped herself down on the couch. It had been a week since Benny got home, and Everyone was situated. Peter and Helene were going to leave that night, and Agnetha and Bjorn moved into their house. She put her hand on her stomach and leaned her head back. Her stomach had hurt all day and it was nearly 1:30 pm. "Peter!" Frida yelled.

"Yes mom, I was just packing my bags," he said after he poked his head out of the kitchen.

"Come here," She said. She took his and and pulled him right beside her. "I want you to know that you are welcome here whenever. And Helene too."

"Thanks, Frida. Really." He smiled as she face him a kiss on the cheek.

Frida smiled as she watched him walk away into his room. Frida decided to lay down and rest for a few minutes. After about ten minutes, she opened her eyes and saw Helene standing there. "Oh, hi honey," Frida said as she sat up. "What do you need?"

"Frida," she paused and then walked over to her and sat down next to her. "Ummm," she breathed. "I'm really sorry for the way I acted over the time we had together. I felt like you were trying to replace my mother, and it scared me. Then Agnetha made me realize how lucky I am to have you and Mom." Frida started crying, she didn't even know why, maybe because Helene likes her, or she was reminded of the past, or that Helene had to leave soon. "Will you forgive me?"

Frida wiped her eye. "Yes!" She great fully wrapped her arms around Helene. Then she released s little bit and looked at Helene. "Will you come and visit some time?" Frida asked.

"Of course," Helene smiled.

—At the Airport—

"Okay, both of you, don't forget to call as much as you can," Frida said as she gave Peter and Helene a hug. "I love you both, and I hope you can come again," she said truthfully.

"We will! We love you too!" Both Peter and Helene said. Then they said their final goodbyes, and Peter and Helene left.

Benny and Frida bother smiled, but Frida had a sad smile. "They left," Frida said obviously trying to hold it together.

"Hey, Hey! It's okay!" Benny said rubbing her back. "How about we go home and you can take a nice warm bath, then we can cuddle?"

Frida looked up at Benny and smiled. "You know me too well," she said as she gave him a hug.

—Back Home—

"Benny," Frida said worriedly at the bottom of the stairs.

"What, why aren't you moving?"

"I don't want to kill the babies," she said scared. "I couldn't stand loosing someone else in my life," she said squeezing his hand in fear.

"It will be okay, honey," he said as he stroked her hair. He stroked her face and kissed her soft lips. He then lifted her up bridal style, and she screamed in surprise. She laughed and kissed him again.

"Thank you," She said dragging out the last syllable in the phrase. He carried her up the stairs, her laughing the whole time. He took her into their bedroom and laid her on the bed. Frida sat up and looked at him in the eyes. They were staring into each others eyes, and Benny started to smile. Frida was confused, and it showed in her facial expressions.

"What?" She said smiling a little bit.

"You've got that pregnancy glow." He smiled widely. "You're so beautiful."

"Help me up," she said as she reached out her hand. Benny took Frida's and and pulled her into his arms. "Okay, okay," she laughed. "Enough lovey dovey crap! I wanna take a bath!"

"Okay," he said as he kissed her. She undressed and got her house coat that had her name neatly printed on the left corner. Benny had drawn a bath with her favorite bath salts and bubble bath. She walked in the master bathroom and looked at it. "Gosh I really love this house," she smiled and clapped her hands together.

"I do too," he smiled and looked around. It was a spacious bathroom with a big shower, huge bath, and sink, toilet, and counter.

"Help me in, please," she said as she took Benny's hand and stepped her foot in. She finally got into the bathtub and closed her eyes. She sat there stroking Benny's hand. She was in there for 30 minutes and Benny was watching her the whole time. A few minutes before she got out she opened her eyes, and saw Benny was watching her. "What are you looking at?" Frida laughed.

"I love you," Benny said still off in his own little world.

"I love you too," Frida said. "Can we go cuddle now?" She asked.

"My goodness, you're just like a five year old," he smiled. "Of course."
