I woke up in the morning to find absolute silence and an empty bed. I opened my eyes slowly as a few rays of light flickered between the curtains. I stretched in bed and yawned fighting my morning laziness and then I almost jumped off bed when I saw the time. 11am. I got up expecting to find James and Marcella in the living room but no one was there and then I peeked in her room and no one was there either. I came back to my room and ran the curtains open. The sun was shinning high and the beach was already filled with people then I noticed an envelope with a red rose on it on James’s pillow, I smiled and picked it up smelling the rose before opening the envelope.

I was surprised to find some sort of ticket to a Spa and there was a note from James:

“Morning love,

Marcella is on her way to EuroDisney with Lars so don’t worry about her. I won’t be with you the whole daytoday but you need to follow my instructions. Trust me.
This card is your pass to a Spa. The van will take you there so you don’t have to worry. You must be back at the hotel at 15.30 pm. More instructions will follow.
Enjoy your time and I can’t wait to see you.
I love you.
Kisses.

James”

I couldn’t help my smile but at the same time my mind tried to find what was behind all that. I showered quickly and got dressed even faster so I could profit from my visit to the Spa. Outside the hotel the van was waiting for me and I gave the driver the card with the address. He rode me through the streets of the village and less than 10 minutes later he parked in front of a gate with a large fountain.

“Here we are miss.” He informed. “What time should I pick you up?”

“Around 15.15.pm, please.” I said remembering James’s note asking me to be back at the suite at 15.30pm. He nodded and I walked in. Some women walking around in a white robe greeted me, they were clients for sure and then I headed to the reception. I gave them the card James had left me and the girl guided me to a room.

“So, first is the massage.” She said. “This card gives you access to a massage, a body hydrate and rejuvenating skin treatment then we’re gonna do your nails and you hair in another section.” I almost laughed thinking James was doing all that to his own profit at the end of the day but I knew he wanted me to have a quiet and relaxing day. I laid in the bed as the girl instructed me and the massage began. It was delicious. I loved how my muscles began to relax under her hands and I basically fell asleep as she did it. The relaxing music playing low, the candle light was just too much for my pregnant condition. I can tell I went to heaven.

Once the massage was done I was taken to another room and my body received a treatment with chocolate, then it was taken off and two women began to run lotion all over it. It smell so good and the chocolate made me hungry and that’s what happened next. I had lunch; a nice chicken salad with an orange juice and mango in the end. Light and healthy meal, I loved that. Already with my clothes on and my stomach full they took me to another section of the Spa, a public area already where my nails began to be done. I chose a white tone as I didn’t know what I was going to wear later and this way it would go with anything. I got an extra present and my feet were done too and then it was my hair.

My hair received an amazing treatment; and in the end I just asked her to let it fall normally down my shoulders, she just worked on its curls but it looked natural. What can I say…I got out of there ten years younger, happy and relaxed as I haven’t been in months. It was an amazing present. The van was waiting for me outside and took me back to the hotel, I was expecting James to be there and I couldn’t wait to thank him properly, only I was mistaken. When I opened the door of our suite the curtains were closed and the suite was dark lightened by candles. I noticed another red rose and an envelope on the table. So, he had been there but he wasn’t there. I opened the envelope to find another note with his hand written:

“Hope you liked the Spa.
I have another surprise for you in our bathroom. Do not open the box that is on the bed, that’s for later. Enjoy.

Love and kisses

James”

I giggled enjoying his game and respected his instructions, I noticed a big white box with a pink ribbon on it on the bed but I didn’t look as he had requested. I opened the door of the bathroom to find an amazing bath prepared. Petals of roses scattered on the floor. The tub with tiny candles around it and the water in the tub was warm. I took off my clothes, tied up my hair carefully and then got in the tub. I didn’t need another bath but I guess I could enjoy a little bit more of his surprises. I closed my eyes and hoped I would not fell asleep and I stayed there until my skin began to wrinkle. When I picked up the towel another envelope fell on the floor.

“Wow…he really put a lot of work into this.” I laughed alone.

“Finish with the bath? Now you can open the box.

James”

I finished drying myself and even naked I walked up to the box. When I was about to unwrap the ribbon I noticed a card and James hand writing again.

“This is for you to wear tonight.
Meet me at the lobby at 5pm.
I love you.”

“Oh my god…he is insane!” I spoke all alone. “Why all this?” I still talked while I unwrapped the present. My heart was racing by then, he was leaving me nervous. Inside the box I found a gorgeous black dress. He knew black was my favorite color. I put the dress in front of me and looked in the mirror. “So gorgeous but am I going to the Oscars or something?” I also found the matching sandals with the dress, I put everything on the bed and began to get dressed, 5pm would be there soon.

I raided my lingerie and took my time choosing what to wear under that perfect dress, I decided to go with black satin thong and the matching bra. I slid inside the dress and looked in the mirror, I couldn’t help but smile. Since I was that well dressed I guessed the occasion asked for makeup and so I spent a few time doing it but always with light tones to keep it natural too. My hair was done so I didn’t have to worry about that, I just fixed it a little bit with my fingers and I ended with diamond rings in my ears and the matching necklace, a few drops of perfume but then I stopped in front of the bottles I had taken with me thinking which one of them James liked the most. I picked the 212 Carolina Herrera bottle, that was the one. 16.55, I put on my sandals and I picked up my hand purse and left with my heart beating a mile per second. I was going to see him and I was anxious.

When reached the lobby I found James walking around with his head down dressed up in a black tux. My jaw dropped, he looked stunning.

“Hi.” I said when I reached him. He raised his head and his eyes glowed.

“You look so beautiful.” He said sounding nervous. I walked up to him and kissed his lips taking my time.

“You are crazy.” I said smiling.

“We need to go.” He said giving me his arm and outside there was not the van or a usual car waiting for us but a limo.

“James!” I exclaimed running out of words. The driver opened the door for us and we got in.

“This would be perfect if now I’d have champagne in here but I can’t drink and you’re pregnant so…” I didn’t let him finish and pressed my lips against him.

“Why all this?” I asked him.

“I just want to show you how special you are.” He said.

“It’s a bit soon to have dinner.” I told him.

“We’ll land in Paris around 8pm, so I guess that’s the perfect time.” He smiled.

“We’re going to Paris? You’re taking me to have dinner in Paris?” James smiled again.

“I got everything under control.” He said grabbing my hand and I felt him shaking a bit. The limo left us at the airport and there was a private jet waiting for us, it took off the minute we were sat safely not wasting any time, landing in Paris two hours after. Another Limo waiting for us outside and we were driven through the streets of Paris once more.

“I can’t believe this.” I told him.

“You deserve it.” He said. There was such a special glow in his eyes that I was falling for him even more if that was even possible.

“And then we’re coming back to Lisbon?” James shook his head.

“No, we’re coming back to Lisbon just tomorrow morning. I have to be there on time for the show.”

“You are crazy.” I said smiling and shaking my head at him. James came closer to kiss my lips in a devastated tender way.

“I am crazy for you.” He whispered against my lips.

The limo stopped in front of the restaurant. When I got out the doorman delivered a bucket of red roses to James that he delivered to me. I took his arm and we got in. If I thought he could no longer surprise me I was wrong. Inside the restaurant there was only one table with candle light and at a corner a band playing. He had reserved the restaurant just for us.

“James…” I looked at him in a awe.

“Don’t say anything.” He said guiding me to the table.

“But why all this?” I asked him again. James just placed a kiss on my hand leaving me without an answer. As we sat the waiter served us of some water and juice and another one brought a salad.

“So, did you like the Spa?” He asked.

“Oh…” I said rolling my eyes. “It was awesome. The massage…I fell asleep.” I told him. James laughed. “How was your day?” I asked him entwining my fingers in his.

“Mine was a rush. Preparing all this.” He said. “But wonderful at the same time. I loved to make you all the surprises. And the notes…” He laughed.

“I loved the notes babe. I kept them all in my purse as a souvenir, no one has ever done anything like this to me. Thank you.” I bent a little bit to kiss him. Then the waiter brought us the main dish. Salmon fumée with boiled potatoes and cream sauce. I devoured the food while James watched me laughing.

“You were hungry.” He told me.

“I am always hungry. I have to be careful otherwise I’m gonna be huge.” Then I sighed. “I am gonna be huge either way.” He smiled at me tenderly.

“You’re gonna look perfect as you always do.”

“Uh…I bet!” I laughed. James got up and gave me his hand pulling me to dance with him. We glued our body and we danced slow and close for a while.

“You’ll look great and I will love you even more.” He spoke in my ear.

“Are you really happy?” I asked him. James strayed a bit so he could meet my eyes with his.

“Of course I am Ade. I love you. You make me feel complete Ade. Since you arrived in my life I feel blessed. You make my heart beat faster every time you look in my eyes, like you’re doing now. You make me smile just by the simple fact that you exist Ade. With you I feel safe and powerful, I feel like nothing can destroy me. With you I found peace, I found home. I love you now and I always will.” He kissed my lips and then gave me his hand back to the table. When I sat back there was a red box open with a solitaire in it. I looked at James shocked and he dropped on one knee near my chair. “ Adriana, I love you since the first time that I saw you and I am happy with you like I never was and I hope you feel the same way I do…” James grabbed my hand with his trembling hands. I figured out why he was so nervous.

“James…” I whispered but he signaled me to stop.

“If you feel the same way I do then please marry me.” Tears rolled down my face and I saw his eyes flickering with water. I cleaned my tears with my hand and then I clutched onto his neck feeling his arms holding me close. I was home. He was home. I had found my missing place in him. There was only one answer I could give him.

“Yes babe.” I said sobbing. “Of course I’ll marry you.” I said. James took his hand to the table and grabbed the ring placing it on my finger. I looked at it amazed and then cupped his face between my hands.

“I love you.” I said leaning my forehead against him. Now everything made sense, why he had been so mysterious in the last days. He was preparing all that just for me.

“And I love you.” He said back.

After our crushing dinner the limo was still outside waiting for us.

“It’s not over yet.” He said in my ear as the limo began to roll.

“How much did you spend in all this?”

“It doesn’t matter.”
The limo stopped in front of the luxurious Ritz hotel and James took me to the presidential suite locking the door behind us.

“I already said yes.” I laughed. “You didn’t need this part.”

“But I wanted it to be complete.” He pulled to him.

“And now what?” I asked him running a hand through his hair. He bent a bit over my lips brushing his in mine and then whispered against them.

“Now love me.”

The intensity he put onto his words was such that my heart raced as if it was the first time I had him that close to me. I would love him indeed, today, tomorrow and forever. He kept his lips slightly parted near mine and I took a deep breath before I kissed them softly. He stood still enjoying while I kissed them then he just pulled me to him for a more demanding kiss. His lips pressured mine with desire and his arms surrounded me holding me against his body and his hands pressured on my back as the kiss deepened. Our tongues met and tangled in a seductive dance and my hands traveled to his shoulders under his tux and I made it slid down, James let go of me that moment to let it fall on the floor sliding off his arms then his hands cupped my face and he broke the kiss.

“Come…” He spoke against my lips catching my hand with his at the same time. I just smiled and followed him in silence, closing the door of the room behind me when we got in. I sat on the bed and got rid of my sandals while James gaze burned on mine then I got up and began to unbutton his shirt slowly as I kissed him again at the same time, his hands slid up through my arms surrounding my neck in a way that made me shudder. His touch was soft, tender and caring. Then the tip of his fingers slid through my hair tugging it with his hands and gently pulling it back giving him the opportunity to kiss my neck. Nothing was rushed, we were taking out time on exploring our body.

When I got his shirt unbuttoned I ran my hands through his skin, he was so warm and even soft. I loved to touch him and to explore him.

“Let me take this off.” I told him trying to pull the shirt down his arms, then he let go of me so I was able to strip him. I threw the shirt randomly on the floor and my hands came back to explore his chest. His hands unzipped my dress and looking me in the eye he pulled the straps down, in seconds I was just in my lingerie in front of his eyes. He bit his lips scrutinizing my almost naked body.

“Hummm…that is so sexy.” He groaned clutching his hands on my hips pulling me for another kiss. I unbuckled his belt and unzipped his pants. James let go of me and pulled them off his legs then he laid me on the bed laying on top of me. My neck was his target again. “You smell so good Ade.” He breathed on his way to my lips again. His hands roamed in a delicious way on my body. His hands burned on my skin, his fingers pressuring every inch, his breathing already uncontrolled. “Take this off.” He asked me grabbing my bra on his hands, I took my hands to my back arching a bit and I unclasped it. He threw it away somewhere in the bedroom. His lips closed around my left nipple while his tongue circled around it.

“Oh…baby…” I gasped tangling my hands on his hair. His ran his hands down my body stopping in my thighs, without any effort he parted my legs and teased me thrusting while we were still in our underwear. My hips raised so he could thrust better, I was aching for any touch I could have with him. He giggled when he finished feasting in my breasts.

“Always so eager Ade.” He whispered against my skin. “You drive me insane.” He bit my chin. I tugged my hands in his boxers and began to pull it off and then I managed to slid a hand between us and I grabbed his erection stroking it softly. He jerked a bit under my touch but continued on kissing me deadly. His hips began to thrust against my hand as our tongues played together. He broke the kiss and got up pulling his boxers off then he kneeled in front of me pulling my thong down my legs. His hands ran the full length of my legs, his face gave me a saucy smile as he did it then making his way back again he stopped on my knees and pulled my legs apart, crawling back on top of me after. “And he wants you darling to be his bride.” he sang and whispered at the same time making me laugh.

“Loverman…” I breathed into his mouth.

“I’m your loverman.” He played.

“Forever, amen.” I whispered as I felt him sliding in slowly as I was adjusting. “Ooohh..” I moaned feeling him. James caught my hands in his and entwined his fingers with mine. Our eyes looking at each others souls. Our bodies glued and melting into one. Whispers, moans, gasps, love words filling the room as we loved each other slow.

“This will be the beginning of our lives.” He said in my ear.

“I love you James. I love you so much.” I said.

“Oh…Ade…” He growled on the back of his throat. I was feeling the urge on his body and his hands left mine and he clutched onto my hips firmly, his fingers burring in my skin, his lips swollen, his face flushed, his tempers sweating and my body squeezing him more and more as my pleasure was peaking. Not resisting his adrenaline his pace was faster and my hips searched for him eagerly. “Fuck…” He growled again clenching his teeth.

“I am there…” I blurted as that tremendous feeling of the world disappearing hit me. My body seizure under him and I quivered moaning his name countless times. He did not resist and thrust harder, leaning on his elbows he lowered his lips searching for mine. “Ade…” He said as he convulsed riding his orgasm. He thrust a couple more times slowing the pace until he collapsed on top of me out of breath. I hugged him tightly while he rested then he kissed my neck again and leaned back on his elbows to look in my eyes.

“Together forever.” He kissed.

“Forever sounds good.” I smiled. James rolled on the bed pulling me with him. My head rested on his chest as I heard his heartbeat still beating fast. “I’m sleepy.” I complained. James giggled and caressed my hair.

“Close your eyes.” He kissed the top of my head, his arms protected me from the world outside. I was strong with him, with him I was invincible. I closed my eyes as he asked and his heartbeat did the job of a perfect lullaby.

********

“Ade…” James knocked at the bathroom door. “Sweetie are you ok?” I got up from the floor and unlocked the door for him. James entered the bathroom and I opened the water in the shower. “Is everything alright babe?” He asked me clutching his body against mine from the behind and kissing my shoulder. “Morning.”

“I am fine, just the usual sickness.” I told him. I took his hands off me and kissed one of them going under the water the next minute. James stood there naked looking at me. “Don’t you wanna come here?” I suggested. He smiled and stepped in, taking me on his arms.

“We don’t have much time.” He kissed my lips.

“Hey, now I remember. We don’t have clothes to put on except for the ones we were wearing last night.”

“And you think I didn’t think about that?”

“You did?”

“Yes…There’s a bag with clothes for both of us. I brought it with me but you were so entertained that you didn’t notice.” He kissed the tip of my nose.

“Everything was perfect James. I loved every bit of it.” I said kissing his lips, I put my arms around his neck and held him tight.

“I would do anything for you.” He whispered.

After the shower we put on the clothes James brought with him and put the fancy clothes in the bag. We had breakfast at the hotel and then we checked out. The same limo was waiting for us outside and took us back to the airport. I wasn’t the same woman that stepped that same ground the night before, I was even happier, more in love than ever and engaged. The diamond shinning in my finger was the proof. I was looking at it while James got everything ready for our flight. With the emotions of last night I hadn’t look at it properly. It was exactly my style. A simple platinum solitaire with a white square stone.

“Do you like it?” He asked in my ear appearing from my behind.

“It’s so beautiful.” I said smiling.

“Let’s go Ade. We’ll have lunch during the flight, I am sorry this part is not that romantic but I am getting a bit late to get to the venue. I am gonna be late for the meet and greet.”

“Don’t worry, what you did for me yesterday was more than enough.” I said.

The two hour flight seemed to last an eternity this time, there was turbulence and I felt really bad. When my feet steeped on Portuguese ground I thanked god I was safe. The van was there waiting for us and we didn’t even had time to go to the hotel first, we went straight to the camp where the festival was taking place. The van entered two huge gates and soon we were in a place packed with tents. There was crew all around, journalists, crew of other bands, band members. It was a mess.

“Dad…” Marcella ran and James picked her up in his arms kissing her.

“Hey guys.” Lars greeted us. “You’re late man you need to go there now.” Lars said. James gave me a peck, put Marcella down and left running. “I am sorry babe.” He said looking back.

“Do your thing.” I told him and I blew him a kiss.

“So?” Lars smiled.

“You knew all the time didn’t you?” I asked him smiling.

“No, I only knew when he asked me to help him. I can see you said yes.” He laughed seeing the ring in my finger.

“You’re going to marry daddy Ade.” Marcella giggle.

“You knew too?” I asked surprised.

“Daddy told me when he left me with Lars yesterday.” She explained.

“Well, of course I said yes. There was not a way I could say no.” I said. “He means the world to me.”

“James, I am going to be late.” I shouted already at the door of our house. We had been home for two weeks and I had this major busy day. I had to meet Danny and Katatonia’s drummer in an office and then I had my first appointment with the doctor at the hospital. I was anxious and nervous, not about the meeting concerning work, no, but about the fact that I was going to know if, in fact, everything was alright with the child I was carrying inside of me. James appeared running downstairs.

“Jesus Ade! Crappy mood in the morning?” He asked me serious.

“No, but you were taking long and I don’t like to be late for my meetings.” I argued.

“We’ll get there on time, Relax!” He argued back. I closed the door and we began to walk to his truck.

“What if there is traffic?” I continued. “What if something happens?” I saw James rolling his eyes and tried not to answer me but I was electric. “Ah, now you don’t say anything.” I teased. He looked back and threw his hands in the air.

“What are you trying to do? Pissing me off? Trying to pick up a fight in the morning over nothing?”

“If I say I want to get out of the house at 10 it’s not 10.30.” I told him as we hopped in the car. James put the key in the ignition and took a deep breath.

“Jesus…” He muttered then he looked at me. “Can you please calm down?” He asked me gently.

“Ok…” I said sulking a bit and looking outside.

“Good…” He said. “Because we don’t need to fight over this alright?” He went silent and I bet he expected me to look at him but I stood still with my arms crossed around my chest. “Can you please look at me?” He asked. “I don’t like when I talk to you and you’re staring at nothing.” I turned my head to face him. “We’ll get there on time.” He said.

“You better be right.” I told him with a menacing look but I guess he was not afraid of that because he chuckled.

“Or what?” He provoked smiling. I smiled back and tapped his arm.

“Gosh, I just hate you!” I exclaimed laughing. He bent over me and kissed my lips.

“No you don’t!” He kissed again. I tapped him again

“Hurry up, we’re gonna be late.” I said, James rolled his eyes and got the engine working.

“Pregnancies and hormones…holy fuck…” He blurted. “Now that you haven’t been sick, your mood in the morning is terrible!” I laughed.

“I am sorry. I’m just a bit nervous about going to the doctor for the first time.” He caught my hand with his and kissed my palm.

“It will be alright.” He said. I could only hope because the idea of having that baby had just sunk in me in such way that I was madly in love with my child already.

I entered the building a couple of minutes later than I should but I decided to give James a rest.

“Wanna go in?” I asked him.

“No, I’ll stay here. I can’t stand those meetings.” He said sitting on the couch and grabbing a magazine. I pecked him and knocked on the door where I found the two Daniel’s, Danny my boss and Daniel the Swedish drummer.

“Nice meeting you.” I said shaking his hand, he held it for a few seconds looking straight into my eyes. We all sat and we discussed the details of my work with them, much to my surprise Daniel informed me that instead of recording in Sweden they had changed their plans and were recording in Sausalito. I was totally fine with that, I could drive home every day. The news were just excellent and I couldn’t wait to deliver them to someone that was waiting outside that room. Not even for me but for him I was happy, he didn’t think it was such a good idea to go to Sweden, first he didn’t want to be separated and second the pregnancy was another of his excuses. After and hour the meeting was over and I was glad about that as well because Daniel’s blue gaze on me was beginning to be a little bit uncomfortable.

As the door opened James put his magazine back on the table and got up. Danny greeted him while Daniel was thanking me for accepting the job. Again I stretched him out my hand and he took it, holding it in his hand not letting go. His eyes sparkled a bit and I didn’t know what to do. James narrowed his eyes scrutinizing him and I smiled a bit clueless.

“So, see you next week.” I told him trying to sound as professional as I could.

“I can’t wait.” He said never leaving my gaze, James’s eyes narrowed even more. I thought maybe it was time to introduce him to my boyfriend so things would be clear, last thing I needed was some guy hitting on me.

“Daniel, this is my boyfriend.” I said pointing at James who shook his hand correcting my words.

“Fiancé actually.” He said trying to defend his cause, Daniel blurted an “Oh” and James smiled at him victorious. Danny elbowed me enjoying the show and I just decided it was time for us to go.

“I am sorry but I have an appointment at the hospital and we need to have lunch first.” I said excusing myself. Daniel left not before shaking my hand one more time and I saw James boiling.

“Can we go?” I said turning to him. He went to the elevators without saying a word. I kissed Danny goodbye.

“I think he’s a bit jealous.” Danny whispered making me giggle.

“I’ll take care of him.” I told him. I went to James and grabbed his hand in mine. We made our way until our car in silence and James face was anything but friendly, it was even cute.

“Hey…” I pulled his face to look at me when we were already inside the car.

“What?” He asked trying to sound normal but I knew when he was just pretending.

“Why the serious face?” I asked.

“Come on…” He complained.

“Let it out, come on.” I said.

“He was hitting on you and you’re gonna be stuck in a studio with him!” He said. I giggled a bit. “Don’t laugh. I don’t like the idea. He was drooling all over you.”

“And he’ll stop as soon as he notices my belly growing, he’s not going to hit a pregnant woman for sure.” I joked trying to make him smile.

“He sure didn’t give a fuck about me!” He still argued. I kissed his cute lips.

“You’re 46, you’re handsome as hell, I don’t see a reason for you to be jealous.” I spoke against his lips smiling. He smirked.

“I am 46, by that you mean Fuck James pull you shit together, you’re too old for this.” I laughed loud and he did too. My goal was achieved.

“No! I mean, you should be more confident, that’s all.” I tickled his belly. He kissed me again.

“We better have lunch and then we have something that is really important to do.” He said. His eyes glowed.

“We’re recording in Sausalito.” I dropped the news not holding them inside. He opened a huge smile.

“Really?”

“Yes babe. I don’t have to go to Europe anymore.”

“Thank God!! That way I can go there and keep an eye on that fucker!” He said making me laugh again and I tapped his arm as he began to drive.

James stopped at my favorite burger house. Now it was always like that, we would always have what I wanted to eat, everything was always about me. I was being spoiled and I didn’t care. I feasted on a hamburger with onions, bacon and cheese and James chose a simple one. Our meal was spent talking about what we would expect to see on the ultra sound and what we expected the doctor to say. We just wanted everything to be fine, hear the heart beat and dream how he or she would look like after the doctor say everything was fine. We were just like any other parents.

As we got to the second floor of the hospital we were asked to wait in a small room painted in light green. I was a nervous wreck and James realized that.

“Calm yourself down a bit.” He spoke in my ear. I just smiled at him and then almost jumped in my chair when a woman called my name. James held my hand and we followed her down the corridor until she opened a door for us and a young female doctor was inside. She stood up and smiled at us, shaking both our hands and then showing us the two chairs in front of her desk.

“Can I call you Adriana?” She began.

“Sure.” I said.

“So, how many weeks?” She asked looking at my belly.

“Well, when I made the test here the doctor said that I should be around 4 weeks so maybe it’s 7 or 8, we’re not too sure.” I explained.

“Ok, We can see that through the ultrasound. Was it planned?” James and I exchanged glances.

“No, it was not” I said.

“But they made you some tests when they found out you were pregnant right?”

“Yes, they did.”

“Good. Now follow me to this other room please.” She said opening the curtains and I sat. “Take your clothes off and put this on, I’ll be right back.” She ordered closing the curtains. James remained on his chair. I laid and waited for her to come back and she did it in a couple of minutes. “Daddy can come here too.” She spoke to James smiling. “Don’t you wanna see your baby.” She joked. First it was the sonogram and when I began to hear that accelerate heart beat my eyes filled with tears.

“Oh my god…” I said taking James hand in mine, James was smiling like a fool it even seemed like it was his first time. I saw the doctor raising an eyebrow though and then I saw James doing the same. I looked at James questioning him in silence. What was he hearing?

“Do I hear two heart beats?” He asked the doctor.

“Maybe.” The doctor smiled.

“What?” I asked. I was clueless. How could he hear two heart beats? The doctor poured some gel on my belly and began the ultrasound. I looked at the monitor but I didn’t understand what I was seeing, the doctor smiled and so did James.

“I see two babies.” He said. Then I also could figure out two dots.

“Does any of you have twins in the family?” The doctor asked.

“No, I don’t. Not on my side.” James said. I was still expecting that he was wrong and that was not two babies.

“Well, I do. My grandmother had a twin sister.” I said. The doctor smiled.

“And it usually skips one generation to happen again on the next one and this is your case. He’s right, there’s two babies in there.” She said pointing. I looked at James.

“Don’t look at me that way. It’s not my fault.” He joked.

“Congratulations, you’re having twins.” The doctor continued her exam. “They each have their own bag so it means it was two ovules. But they are fine. Heart beating strong and so far so good, and you should be around 9 weeks.” She said beginning to clean my belly. I was in shock. I got dressed in silence, I made another appointment and I drove back home always in silence. Already at home James pulled me to his lap.

“Is gone the shock?” He kissed me.

“How can you be that calm and smiley?” I asked him.

“The idea is lovely and they are fine, what more could I ask?” He was right.

“I am just too scared at the moment, that’s all. I am extremely happy our babies are fine.”

“It’s not going to be an easy task to have two babies in the house but we’ll manage it just fine.” James was just wonderful at showing me some support.

“Twins!! I wasn’t expecting this.” I laughed.

“And it’s your fault…” He teased with his boyish grin. “I am glad that for once I don’t have nothing to do with this!”

“Oh really? I didn’t make them alone you know?” I teased back.

“Yeah but I wasn’t the one extra fertile.” I bit his neck playing with him.

“You can be so obnoxious sometimes.” He laid me on the couch.

“And you love it.” I laughed before I pulled him down for a kiss.

“Do some obnoxious stuff with me.” I whispered.
