One Kiss - Mayans MC

Part 23

Notes: Sorry, this is really long 

Eighteen months ago

Knocking on the door, i take a deep breathe "here goes nothing" I mutter to myself the door opening

"Camila" Devante says warmly "so lovely to see you again" embracing the man I enter the house

"It's good to see you too Devante" I reply

Walking into the kitchen I embrace Dita "It's good to see Camila" she says kissing my cheek "How is San Francisco treating you?"

Before I can reply I hear a squeal turning just in time as Emily throws herself on me wrapping me up in her arms "You're here" she says squeezing me tightly

Laughing I wrap my arms around her "I told you I was coming" I say as I kiss her cheek

"Yeah but you also said you were coming for my birthday and you never showed, and then Miguel's birthday and you bailed so" she trails off

"I'm sorry Em, I just had a lot going on" I say pulling back looking at my friend, my eyes drawn to her stomach "Oh my god" I exclaim "YOU'RE PREGNANT?" surprise and excitement spreading across my face

"I've been waiting until you came home, I wanted to tell you in person" she says touching the small bump on her stomach

"Oh Em, I'm sorry" I say placing my hand on her stomach "hey little one" I coo

Laughing Em hugs me again "well you're here now and that's all that matters"

"Well I don't believe it" I hear Miguel say entering the room "you actually came home" he says smiling at me

"You would think I had been gone for years, not six months" I say laughing hugging Miguel

"Yes but the last time you were home was only for a couple of days, so really it's been since our wedding since you've been home" he says

"Is it any wonder I don't come home? What is this gang up on Cami night?" I say jokingly

Laughing we all walk to the dining room table sitting down "Wow this looks great" I say grabbing a plate

"Thank you Camila" Dita says taking her seat next to Devante

"So besides a baby, what else have I missed?" I ask looking at Miguel and Emily

We fall into easy conversation, Emily and Miguel filling me in on things I've missed

"So how is San Francisco treating you?" Miguel asks putting his knife and fork down

"It's good, it has actual seasons and I like my job" I say

"What are you working on these days?" Devante asks

"I'm working with at risk youth, helping juvenile offenders re-enter society" I reply taking a sip of my drink

"That sounds rewarding" Devante replies pausing "There has been a new center opened here in Santo Padre that assist at risk youth"

"Huh, how interesting" I reply smirking "Is that part of the new Galindo revitalisation plan?"

"Something like that" Miguel says smirking

The front door opens and my eyes drift over watching one of Miguel's security guys walking in nodding to Miguel

"Ladies, please excuse us" Miguel says standing up kissing Emily on her head and him and Devante head down to his study

I can feel Emily staring at me across the table "What?" I say standing up picking up the plates

"Nothing" she says smirking at me holding her hands up
