The New Girl

Chapter 9

Waking up the next morning, I have my back to Bishop and his arms are around me and his hand is on my stomach. I look down and see the wedding ring on his finger and realize that yesterday wasn't a dream. I married the man of my dreams and we're having a baby. I feel him start to stir and he pulls me closer. I turn to face him and he kisses me softly. "Morning marido." I say. "Morning mi esposo." he says before kissing me again. "Te amo mi amor." he whispers. "Te amo mi dulce." I whisper back. We get up and get dressed before heading out to the main room. "Didn't expect to see you two today." Hank says, smirking. "I need coffee." I say and Bishop looks at me. "The doctor said one cup a day wouldn't hurt the baby but after that I'll drink tea or juice." I say and he nods. Chucky puts a coffee in front of me and I look at it a minute. "I wonder if decaf would be okay." I say. "We can ask the doctor at your next appointment." he tells me. I look at him and before I can say anything else he pulls me close and says "I love you Bebita." I smile and say "I love you too baby."

Hank says "We're heading to Vickie's. You coming?" Bishop looks at me and I nod my head yes. "We're coming." he tells Hank and Hank nods. "Bish, I can't ride a bike." I say. "You want to drive your car?" he asks. "I should." I say. I pack us an overnight bag and when we walk out of the room, Hank hands Bish the keys and says "Pequena mama can't ride so we got the truck ready. Prospect will drive her." Bishop looks at me and I nod that it's fine with me and we head out. As soon as we get into the truck, I see the Prospect just looking straight ahead. "Are you okay EZ?" I ask. "I'm okay." he says. "You know you can talk to me." I tell him. "Just trying not to mess up. "Don't stress about it. You're doing fine." I tell him and he nods and says "Thanks."

We pull up to Vickie's and when we walk in, he laces his fingers with mine and Vickie walks up and I see her kiss Riz on the cheek as he hugs her. "Who's this?" she asks. "This is my wife, Marci. Babe, this is Vickie. She's familia." he tells me. "Nice to meet you Vickie. I hope you don't mind me tagging along." I tell her. "Not at all. You're welcome here anytime." she tells me before hugging me. "Thank you Vickie." I say. When she lets me go, Bishop pulls me back into his arms and kisses my temple and we see Vickie smiling at us.

We all move to the living area and Vickie asks "How did you two meet?" I start laughing and say "I actually work in the office at the scrapyard and we sort of fell for each other." I tell her as he nuzzles his nose against my neck. "So now that you're married, when can we expect babies?" she asks. "In about six more months." I tell her and her eyes went wide. "Congrats you two. If you need anything Marci, please let me know." she tells me and I look at her. "Family takes care of family." she tells me. "That we do." I say as I look at Bishop and kiss his lips softly. I stand up and take his hand before saying "Well, my loves, it's time for my husband to take me to bed." I say and they all start laughing. I lead him up the stairs and he shows me which room is ours.

Walking into the room, he closes and locks the door before picking me up and carrying me to the bed. Laying me down gently, he hovers over me and we start making love nice and slow. "I love you Bish." I whisper. "I love you more Marci." he whispers back just before we find our release. Laying beside me, My head is on his chest with him holding my hand over his heart and we both doze off with smiles on our faces.
