10 - Chapter Ten - Emerald Victorian's Point Of View.
Lucca and I had the scare of our life last week. We found out I could
possibly be Pregnant, Both Lucca and I are worried, I'm worried that I'll
find out I'm pregnant and he won't want children anymore even though
he really seemed down for it. I'm not quite sure what Lucca's worried
about. He seemed closed off and in his own thoughts today, but I did
hear him talking to someone about me being potentially with a child
and he seemed okay talking about it.
I had to call Nina today, I called the clinic. I knew if I didnât she would
never let me live it down and I wouldn't have the answer I really
wanted. Yes or no. An odd feeling settled in my stomach at the thought
of not being pregnant now that everyone was excited for us.
" Hello this Is Nina and you are calling the Pregnancy clinic. What can I
help you with?"
" Hey Nina"
" Em, is that you?"
"Eh, yes"
" Are you calling in sick, did you want me to give you Leessonâs extent--
" No, Actually I need you to book me an Ultrasound for today at some
time"
" Ok, Well Who's it for?"
"Me"
* WHAT"
" Nina, calm down"
"You're prank calling me aren't you"
"No."
* MY BABY IS HAVING A BABY OH MY GLOB *
" Nina, Appointment, pleaseâ
" Oh right anytime you show up will be fine, okay Em"
" Okay, I will see you in about an hour"
" Okay see you then"
I hung up the phone and saw Lucca standing in the doorway with a
plate of pancakes with whip cream and syrup. I walked over to the plate
and he walked away, I followed him to the kitchen where he sat at the
table and patted his lap. I rushed over and sat on his lap. He kissed my
cheek and spoke.
* Strange phone call?"
" Ohh, I called a lady I work with and asked if she could squeeze me in
for an ultrasoundâ
" Ohh, Really 2"
" Yes, I told her I would be there in an hour"
* Ohh then let's get you fed and I'll drop you---"
"1 want you to come in with me" I blurted out immediately.
"1 would love too," he said softly well-cutting pancakes into small bite-
sized peace's, he stabbed some pancake chunks and fed them to me.
After he finished feeding me, he carried me to our room and he got
dressed. I watched him the whole time. god, he is so hot.
I walked into our closet and grabbed a pair of my pants and his large
black sweater, he left it on the far right of his side of the closet so I
could find it when I wanted it. He smiled when he saw the sweater.
"I knew you were going to get that," he said chuckling.
"I love this sweater, it smells like my lover, and the father of my
possible child,â I said, rubbing my belly.
His face lit up and he hugged me lightly, he looked happy about the
possible baby, but I couldn't know for sure because I couldn't read his
mind.
we were getting out of the car when he rubbed my belly, he seemed
like he was in his own world.
"Lucca, I love you"
"I Love You to Em, I also love this child if there is one"
" Really,â I said happily.
"If you're not Pregnant, can we try for a baby," he said winking at me
" We can try for as many babies as you like,â I said blushing.
"I am going to remember you said that, for a long time," he said,
holding my hand as we walked into the clinic.
Everyone that worked in the clinic saw Lucca and breathed a sigh of
relief, they all probably thought he had died or something. Nina saw
me and came running at me to give me a hug and just before she
reached me, he pulled me against him and she almost fell on the
ground. He was so damn possessive of me it wasn't even funny, well
maybe a little bit funny.
" Lucca that wasn't very niceâ I mumbled
"1 Don't Care, I was protecting my mate," he said
"I'm sorry Nina he's really protective of me,â I said
"1 can see that Em, I'm Glad, Anyways follow me and I'll show you
where you can have your scan done," Nina said walking away.
" Okay," I said as I pulled Lucca behind me to the office.
Nina led me and Lucca to an office that I knew, It Was Dr.Gregson, we
were often working shifts with each other, I walked in and he looked at
his clipboard.
" Good Morning, I hear you're heading for an ultrasound,â he said as he
looked up he began to laugh.
" Good morning, Shawn,â I said slightly embarrassed
"This is quite the surprise Emerald I totally never thought I would never
see you here for this"
I Watched as Lucca's eyes flashed Purple and he was about to say
something, I shook my head telling him to behave. He just smiled as if
he wanted to break every one of his bones. The doctor had me lay
upon the bed. The doctor rubbed the gel on my belly and told me to
wait a few minutes, I did. Lucca still looked like he wanted to paint the
interior of this room with my friend's blood all for touching me. I really
wasn't surprised though, I knew how possessive these males got when
mates became pregnant, I had to defuse a few situations in my time.
He started the ultrasound and placed it on my belly. His face held a
shocked look.
" Well you are definitely pregnant but you might want to look at this,"
he said printing out a picture of our baby and handing it to me. I knew
right away that there were two babies there. But I didn't really know
how to break it to Lucca, that there was more than one heir in my belly
growing happily. He fainted finding out about one, how was he going
to handle finding out there are two babies now?
"Is something wrong with our baby Em?â Lucca asked, his voice
shaking. He really seemed worried now, his eyes held fear as he looked
right at my belly.
"Um, Sort of, I guess?"
" What's wrong with our baby?" he asked freaking out. His eyes
pleading with mine for information, he knew I had.
" We are having twins,â I said
His face went blank and he blinked a few times before he just looked at
me.
âTwins.â
âYes, Lucca, Twins, two babies not one.â
âHmm, Thats okay.â
âIs it? Are you sure?â
âI don't know."
âLucca, just breathe you're in a mild shock and you donât need to faint
again, the floor here is much harder than the one at home after all.â
Sitting down in the chair he just looked at the floor, the poor guy's
head must be spinning. I really felt for my husband who only just got
over finding out about being a dad, but now finding out he was about
to be a dad to two children, twins. He left the room saying he had to
make some calls quickly and not to worry about anything he would
look after everything.
âYour husband is in shock.â
âYes, I noticed that and I'm worried.â
âHe seems like a really nice guy, I'm happy for you Em, We were all so
worried you would never find the one for you. After all, you always put
work above everything else.â
âYes, I know I do, but it seems that can no longer be the case since I'm
now married and have a small set of guests in my body at the
moment.â
âYou better look after those small guests, they are going to be amazing
one day, you know it.â
"Of course, How are your children doing?â
âMark is just finishing high school and Liza is engaged to her college
boyfriend, The wife and I are really hoping for some grandbabies soon.
After all, you know they brighten our life.â
âYeah, Lucca parents and mine are really looking forward to some
grandbabies, They won't stop messaging us to find out if we are
carrying. I'm pretty sure he is calling to tell them about the positive
carrying status right now.â
"Oh for sure, That's the first thing I would be doing.â
âSo let's take baby business, Am I high risk for anything, should I
change anything?â
âYou're not a high risk, but I would just say work less, eat healthily and
be careful.
âAlright, that sounds really good to me.â
âI'm really happy for you, I can't wait to see how these little ones
develop.â
Leaving the office I found Lucca out in the hall still on the phone. He
was pacing back and forth until he saw me, the smile on his face told
me he was happy about finding out about the twins.
He hung up the phone call and took my hand and pulled me against
him, and kissed me deeply and lovingly.
âI'm so happy to be a father to not just one baby but twins, You have
no idea how happy I am inside.â
âWhat's the words from the parents? I assume you called them all?â
âI did of course and everyone is very happy, I did tell everyone we were
having twins and to wait a few weeks before the royal announcement
went out, after all, it will have too because people are noisy and won't
leave us alone if we don't.â
"l understand that.â
âAlso, you're supposed to call your parents. They want to talk about
going shopping for baby stuff, and dad says he can't wait to see the
Ultrasound photos of his grandkids and he's hoping for boys that he
can teach all his ways.â
âThat sounds about right, After all, you know someone had to teach
them bad things,â I said laughing.
âI'm sure both sets of our parents will be good at that, after all, they are
demons for a reason.â
âOh god, you're so right.â
âOur children are going to be so spoiled and so bad, We both will have
to be tough parents.â
âMaybe, or maybe not, I feel like our children should be okay.â
âLet's just wait and see.â
Lucca took my hand and we walked out to the car. It was a really nice
day outside and I had plans to spend some of this day outside in our
yard, maybe getting a sun tan or just working on the garden I wanted
in the backyard,
The car ride home was quiet until Lucca got a phone call and had to
take it, He explained it was only a work call and he had to do some
work when he got home. I was a little sad he couldn't help me with my
last-minute garden but I really did understand he needed to get his
work done.
When we got home he parked the car and helped me out and we
walked together inside before he went to his office to do his work.
Looking around I slipped my shoes off and walked through the kitchen
and outside to the garden. There were a lot of ideas in my head of what
to do with all the new space but I really wasn't sure what I wanted to
do. Settling on the idea of a small flower garden I went to look for the
tools I would need and I found them in the shed. We had lots of fun
tools in the shed it turns out. Shovels, rakes, pots, grass seed, tarps, you
name it we had it, and lots of it.
Digging out the grass where I wanted my garden to be proved to be
the fun part, I was careful not to hit my belly or anything else as I
played in the yard with the shovel. At one point Lucca waved out the
window at me before I could actually hear him running down the stairs
at a lighting pace. I braced to be yelled at for the lawn, or rather my
new garden. That however was not the case, he only yelled at me for
potentially hurting myself with the lawn tools and for not asking for
help with my new garden hole. I tried telling him I was fine but he still
pulled be out of the back yard and inside to get cleaned up for dinner,
Fuck I felt like the baby here, not the one carrying them. Washing my
hands and dusting myself off I went down for dinner. I found Lucca had
cooked meatballs and I wanted them all. They smelt heavenly.
