Lethal Adults

Chapter 17

The next morning you could find King doing the same thing he was doing the night before, holding hands with his beloved wife. The nurses had been checking her and baby's progress all night long and thankfully she and the baby were ok. So much ok that the doctor had taken her off of the coma meds and now all she had to do was wake up.

He was thankful for his brother, Gamble, getting him a change of clothes because staying in a suit soaked in his wife's blood wasn't ideal. He showered the night before and changed into the comfier clothes before throwing away his bloody suit deciding he didn't want to keep reliving that night.

A few hours after sunrise his cousin, Blue and her husband Ricardo swung by to check on him and Naomi. Then a few minutes after their arrival Gamble and Andrea arrived. Aside from giving each other hugs the room was silent the only thing that made consistent noise was Naomi's heart monitor.

"I just can't believe that she is pregnant," King talked breaking the silence. Blue and Andrea exchanged looks both not shocked by the information considering the fact that they already knew.

"Blue, Andrea, did Naomi ever mention a child, I know you three are super close. Did she ever mention anything to you two?" King asked.

"Um, she told us the last at Sandy's but at that time she wasn't completely sure because her actual doctor's appointment was yesterday afternoon," Andrea answered.

"Wait, so you two did know? Why didn't anyone tell me?"

"She told us not to tell you or Ricardo and Gamble, because at the time she wasn't one-hundred percent sure. Not only that but she wanted the moment you found out to be special." Blue responded.

"Blue have you forgotten what we have to do for a living, you out of everyone should have told me," King replied.

"Excuse me for trying to respect my sister's wishes. Look, King, I know you are pissed off, actually livid, and trust me I would be too, but don't go and try to make it seem like we were doing the wrong thing," Blue stated.

"I am not doing anything I am just trying to find out why you or Andrea did not tell me."

"They didn't tell you because I told them not too," Naomi spoke hoarsely. Everyone whipped their heads in her direction and saw that she was up and staring them down.

"Yall make it so hard for someone to fall asleep." She joked. King rushed over to her and smothered her in a kiss thankful that she had woken up. When he finally came up for her hair and pulled her hair away from a face.

"I'm so happy you are ok." He whispered as water brimmed his eyes. She gave him a smile before she gestured for the others to come and give her a hug as well.

"So lessons I have learned from this whole experience is that spy work is definitely not for me, I would much rather be working behind the scenes as a doctor. Getting the bullet wounds is much better than taking one." Naomi stated, "Also, King, do not get mad at Andrea or Blue because I asked them specifically not to tell anyone."

"We told his hard-headed self that already, I swear you married a brick wall sometimes," Andrea added causing everyone to chuckle.

"Leave my hubby alone he was just nervous,"

"Well, I am super happy that you woke up because who else is going to play spades with me on family dinner nights?" Gamble commented.

"Those nights are the best when can we start doing those again?" Naomi asked.

"When you get cleared and everyone's schedules are free, we could have it our house," Ricardo talked.

"Yall live in the middle of nowhere though, why can't yall be closer," Andrea replied.

"Don't act like you don't like coming over there," Blue jabbed.

"Fine, I do like going over there,"

"Well, can you four please leave so I can have some much needed alone time with my wife," King grumbled.

"Ugh so rude, c'mon Ricardo we need to get back to the boys anyway," Blue talked as she went to give King and Naomi another hug.

"Awe look at the parents going to their sons, we ain't got nothing to do but seeing as though King here is kicking us out I guess we can go shopping," Andrea told her husband.

"I am not going shopping with you," Gamble talked back.

"Gamble, piccolo," Andrea replied.

"So where you tryna go babe," Gamble asked as he made his through the door.
