I whined holding onto Zach while he said encouraging words to me, "C'mon baby you can pull through this. Just let it come out." This was so embarrassing to do in front of him but like a true hubby should be, he sat here with me massaging my back with one hand while holding his nose closed with the other. Morning sickness is a bitch.
Me throwing up would make Ducky run away and the boys to gag even my big evil man of a fiancé. "Am I still beautiful," I asked smirking at him after I emptied out my breakfast into the toilet with snot and drool on my face. He smiled back at me with his nose still covered up, "A true angel my sweet." I swear I love this man.
After flushing the toilet, I washed my hands watching Zach get my toothbrush ready and a cup of mouthwash, "Would you not kiss me if I didn't brush my teeth?" I asked him that as a joke but he seemed to have taken it as a challenge since he grabbed me by the shoulders and kissed me deeply for what seemed like forever before pulling away and handing me the toothbrush. "I can kiss you no matter what's been in your mouth because I love you but it honestly wouldn't hurt to clean at least," he pecked my lips walking out to pick out his work clothes.
"Ew, he kissed me after I....just eww." I continued to get ready for school trying to hop into some jeans for almost ten minutes now before deciding to put on sweat pants. "You all are making mommy fat and I can't find any shirts that won't squish you all into my bladder," I got after them looking at the pile of shirts on the closet floor. I give up who needs school anyways or to go out when I can be home in just sweats all day long eating chocolate pudding.
Zach walked in with a grilled cheese sandwich putting it down on the dresser then walked over to me noticing the clothes everywhere. "I object to going out at all because nothing fits anymore and I'm fat and always hungry and fat and I just don't wanna get dressed," tears began to escape but he laughed wiping them away.
Next thing I knew a long-sleeved grey shirt was pulled over my body fitting me perfectly loose making me smile. "Better beautiful?" "I'm still fat but um are you going to eat that," I asked pointing to the beautiful sandwich where the toast was just perfect and the cheese melted enough to ooze out but still stay intact. "That's all yours sweetheart I even added bacon, avocado, and pickles just how you like it."
I began to eat the sandwich tears gushing out of my eyes as I chewed and cried. He laughed while looking at me, "Baby why are you crying?" "Begauge ey lomb yuu aad ey dngrt decscrve yuu," I took another bite crying my eyes out but he continued to laugh and now videotaped me asking me what I had said but it ended up coming out the same as before making him give up and began to put my sneakers on me.
My once small bump is now bigger than a melon and my little beans are now two monsters who are constantly hungry and play pinata with my bladder. The Hormones are kicking right up the ass making me throw up when I have a chance and the need to stab someone repeatedly is just right up there. "Can I just skip school and we could go eat kill some people maybe torture here and there then eat again?"
He looked at me shaking his head no, "Sorry love but education is important and you've missed enough school days. Maybe afterward we can torture a person or two if you'd like. I have a bad rat in my group that will soon be yours as well and I don't think we need a pest in our group." I laughed as he planted butterfly kisses all around my face making me feel better about today.
I think Zach and these babies are bringing out my inner psycho a bit more, "Sounds like the perfect date already." He planted one more kiss on my nose, "It'll be the best first date of your life. I'll make sure of it." "Can I go," Ducky's small voice came out from behind our bedroom door. Zach opened the door to reveal our little girl standing there arms behind her back with her head tilted up and giving us the best smile of her life.
He picked her up and she went to whisper something to him but I couldn't hear so I waited looking at them have a discussion. "Ahem not to interrupt this little meeting but what are you guys talking about," I asked putting on my jacket while holding out ducky's jacket.
She looked at me then at Zach as if silently asking him not to tell me, "Well my sweet, this was an A B conversation that you must C your way out of. It's a daddy-daughter convo I promised to keep a secret for my little princess," he said with a smirk.
"Mhmm Mommy will find out. Mommies always know," I responded to both of them as I helped ducky into her coat.
Ducky looked at him worriedly but he assured her I wouldn't calming her down to lay her head on his shoulder with a smile. These two have been bonding more and more ever since we moved in making me so happy words can't describe. Occasionally ill see my child self every now and then reminding me of my past only he hasn't said one word to me.
It's a bit creepy to see myself just sitting there for hours watching what I do whether it's being at school or working in the office. Sometimes I enjoyed his company and even better he began to wear underwear with socks. It might not be healthy for me to be seeing him around but I mean I'm already crazy enough so who cares let him walk around.
Zach dropped all of us at the entrance of the school building sending Ducky and I off with a kiss. Ducky held my hand as we walked down the halls where she was unaware of the strange looks we got from other students. Ryan and Danny would send glares to others as a warning to back off and I didn't mind since these babies need all the protection they can get. Suddenly the football coach passed us by telling Ryan he had to come to the small meeting at this moment for tomorrow's game.
He left since it was a requirement but not before giving my belly a kiss telling me to have a good day and to be careful. My feet began to swell so I stopped at a bench to take my sneaker off to give it a quick massage only the bell rang signaling us to get to class but I couldn't walk yet.
"Can you walk her to class I don't think my feet can make it to the third floor," I asked Danny. He smiled taking her hand in his while he carried both his and her backpacks, "Anything for you. Wait for me here ill be back asap."
I watched them disappear along with everyone else leaving just me in the hallway. When I was done massaging my right foot and ready to start my left one, I heard some heels clicking on the floor maybe thirty feet away and it sounds like four people. My eyes followed the sound waiting for them to turn the corner and sure enough, it was a group of girls.....who are apparently now walking my way.....great.
I kinda want orange juice. My mind got distracted as I remembered an orange juice commercial where it looked being poured into a glass, I forgot the girls were coming my way. The stench of hoe got whiffed into my nostrils I had to fan the air around me a bit.
"So, you finally got knocked up like the bitch you were born to be," the leader of the group said to me as she checked out her own stupidly overdone nails. She had brown straight hair going past her shoulders and green colored contact lenses while the makeup on her face was overly done for a regular school day. What's her name? "Who are you?" She gaped at me shocked at the fact I had to even ask and honestly, I was too since I had known every name of the people in my grade level for security measures but this pregnancy has been messing with me.
The girl to her right gasped, "How could you not know her? She's the daughter of the States Judge and you should be showing her some respect." I quirked my brow up confused as to why I am even being talked to like this when I had never even met these gold diggers. "No, I should be showing her dad some respect. What has she done to earn the respect of people," I said successfully tying my sneaker up ready to go to class. I should get some loafers or new bobs to make life easier.
I began to walk away but remembered what she had first said to me haha whoops almost let her get away with that. I turned around seeing her face turn red with rage as if to affect me so with a straight face I told her, "You should shower the smell of a cum dumpster isn't something we all want to smell," I looked at the one who spoke up remembering who she was, "Hey Jude, does your so-called best friend know your fucking her daddy all because he buys you, Louis Vuitton, btw not cool you got that abortion just so you could get that limited edition handbag."
I tsked while shaking my head as they all stared at me with shocked faces before Bethany bitched slapped Jude breaking those hoe ass nails in the process. You could hear them arguing screaming at each other but my head began to hurt so I walked away towards class just as Ryan and Danny ran down the stairs to me probably hearing all the commotion.
"What happened," they asked me hurriedly checking me all over for injuries. "Oh, nothing some tea was spilled and someone slipped really hard. Let's go to class I just want to sit down already." They looked at me worriedly but helped me carry my bag not asking any more questions knowing I was too tired.
The school day went by pretty fast I mean I may have taken naps here and there to speed the process but I mean it's not like I have bad grades. In fact, I'm in the top twenty-five since I was planning to go to a good college before all this happened. I should get a degree in business since I already took those few classes for accounting.
Choosing a career is pretty hard but since it was chosen for me to be a king, I should work towards being a good one especially if one of our kids wants to become the next one. I held onto Ducky my arms wrapped around her little waist as she sang along to a Disney boy band.
I took an earplug out of her ear, "What do you wanna be when you grow up?" She looked up at me turning her whole body around giving me a serious expression, "A princess."
I couldn't help the laugh that came out of me and she looked at me like I had offended her, "Sorry baby. I'm going to make sure you become the princess you deserve to be." She gave me a smile wrapping her hands around my neck as she buried her face beside mine, "I know. Daddy and Daddy Z promised too."
Uncle must have made many promises to her and it broke my heart most were broken but I promise to give her everything I possibly can even if it means killing every being on this planet. Danny showed up wrapping a blanket around us as we waited for Zach to pick us up from school so we could head to the main building for my group.
Today we were going to meet with everyone including the boy's parents regarding the situation plus I think Danny's father wanted to make a deal with me. A black Escalade pulled up in front of us just as Ryan was walking towards us with our hot chocolate since caffeine is bad for the babies.
We all stared at the shiny new vehicle that looked too fancy to be here even at this private school. Slowly the window rolled down revealing a smiling Zach who looked proud to be driving a family vehicle. "Like it? I had them custom make a model of theirs that isn't supposed to come out for a few years to fit some needs of mine." I tiredly got up holding ducky's hand as we inspected the car before buckling her in the back seat. I sat in the front sipping my hot beverage as I comfortably sat in the leather material.
The boys sat in the back curiously looking around and excitedly asking Zach questions about the engine and design. "Why the large car," I asked taking another sip enjoying my time with them all. "Well, this family is growing and will continue to grow minus those two in the back that should be moved out and moving on with their lives by the time there's another bun in the oven."
Ryan scooted up a bit between us, "I hope to cockblock you till you're in the grave old man." My eyes couldn't roll any harder than they do on a daily basis at his comment so I just shoved him back but Zach just laughed, "Don't forget that it isn't uncommon for shitty brats to go missing, and now that there is an heir for your group I'm sure your dad won't mind."
He sat back down with a huff while Danny went back to asking Zach questions about the customizations he asked for the car. Once we got home, we saw he had prepared tortilla soup for dinner since we get hungry after school and id be too tired to cook. "Ahem, Skyler, Ducky, and I will out today so make sure you boys don't be screw-ups while we are gone. One damage to this house is one less dad these kids have," Zach advised them earning a yes from both.
"Where we going," Ducky asked excitedly and I wanted to know as well since he hadn't mentioned anything to me....wait the date. How stupid of me I forgot I was supposed to have a date right now. "We are having a family date but I can't say where because it's a surprise so you and mommy have to wait." She made a happy noise before taking the last few bites then leaving the table shouting out, she had to get ready.
"Where are you going to take them. We have to know" Danny asked filling his bowl again for a second helping. Zach chuckled while he got up picking up our bowls to wash, "I don't have to say shit you or him about what we do. I am more than capable to protect my family, in fact, more capable than the both of you combined. If you so desperately need to know just ask Jay, he has the tracker but you two are even below me on the favorite person list of his."
Danny pouted going back to paying attention to his phone and finishing his dinner while Ryan knew not to butt in. After cleaning, I went upstairs to find Ducky having a difficult time trying to pick out an outfit stating she had nothing good to wear even though I know Leo picked out amazing outfits for her closet. It took a while but she agreed to wear a yellow long-sleeve with a long denim skirt and dark beige boots.
I walked into the room deciding to wear what I wore to school but when I approached the bed there was an outfit laid out with a note neatly placed on top. "Something comfortable for you to wear for the date if you don't like it, you now have many new options in the closet." I picked up the pair of pants noticing the front is stretchable....they are maternity pants.
All of the clothing on my side of the closet was maternity friendly even my work clothing was replaced. How'd I get so lucky? Tonight's outfit was a brown shirt with a beige cardigan along with pants and beige uggs all without a single struggle to get on well the shoes took a minute but I got it.
Ducky and I walked down the stairs together to find Zach waiting for us on the bottom holding two different colored roses. He was wearing dark jeans and a fitted gray sweater with some leather oxfords. "A pink rose for my princess and a blue rose for my angel," he said giving us our roses before picking Ducky in his left arm and my hand in his right, "What a lucky man I am to have such a beautiful princess as my daughter, a gorgeous angel as my husband and two amazing little potatoes."
I laughed a bit trying to cover up the blush creeping up my cheeks. As we got seated in his black wrangler, he told us we would be blindfolded since it was a surprise and he couldn't count on Ducky not shouting out the destination once she saw it.
The drive was pretty long maybe an hour I'm not sure but Ducky did ask about three times if we were there yet. Not going to lie I wanted to know as well since I was getting hungry again, I have to eat like four meals a day with snacks every now and then plus my butt hurts from sitting.
After what seemed like twenty minutes of karaoke featuring Ducky and me, I felt the car slow down to a stop. Zach turned off the car then I felt my door being opened as he helped me off but still blindfolded. All I could hear was pop music being played loudly from a distance, "Can I take it off yet?" "Hold on," he said slamming the doors shut and placing Ducky beside me taking my hand in hers as she explained her excitement.
"Okay then," the blindfolds were taken off revealing that we were at a deserted carnival in the middle of the woods. Is he serious? He brought me to a fucking carnival....when I'm pregnant. I have never been to one and I appreciate that he brought me but c'mon really?
I looked at him trying to smile, "Wow...a carnival how cheesy of you I can't wait to not ride the rides. I'll just hold the stuff while you and Ducky ride the rides." I swear I tried not to sound so sarcastic.
He looked at me with a smile, "I know I know pretty cliché but there is a lil something different with this carnival that I had to have it out here where no civilian can be at. Trust me, baby, you will enjoy this now let's go get you something to eat I know you are hungry."
With a sigh, I held his hand as he led the way while ducky happily ran in front shouting out what she wanted to do first. This looked like any other rinky dinky carnival I've seen in movies what could possibly make this place any different that it had to be way out here or that I had to even be taken here in my situation.
He called out to Ducky telling her he will ride the tilt-a-whirl with her while I went to get a hotdog. Once I was full from two hotdogs and they had ridden three different rides I was surprised to see Leo walking up to us. "What are you doing here," I asked not to be rude but to genuinely know why since this was pretty far.
"Zach had called me up to spend some time with Ducky here so you two could have some alone time for a bit. Heard you're stressing out," he said picking her up then replying to her million questions. Zach came up behind me putting his arm around my waist to guide me away, "Thank you, Leo!"
"So what is there for me to do? Or what do you have planned," I asked following his lead to the other side of the carnival. He chuckled putting my hand to his lips for a sweet kiss, "Come I have a few special booths set up for us." I hummed looking at him with an arched brow rubbing the bottom of my bump but followed him anyways to a booth.
The booth he led us to had the title darts lit up in yellow letters while the booth itself was colored red with red curtains around it. Doesn't sound too bad, I guess. As we stood in front of the booth, I noticed four circular holes scattered around the board between the multi-colored balloons we are supposed to pop. "Why are there giant holes on the board? I suppose it'll be a bit more challenging since it's a kid's game," I said picking up a white dart noticing the needle was at least two inches long. Weird.
He chuckled putting two extra baskets in front of us, "I told you we could torture afterward, didn't I?" One basket had ninja stars while the other had throwing knives both in either black or white to keep count of points. But wait then where? Zach pushed a red button on the side of the table and the sound of gears can be heard behind the board as it shook a bit.
I watched as the heads of four men popped out one by one in each of the circles filling it completely. Even though the board was a good fifteen feet away I could clearly see their eyelids had been cut off while their mouths had been sewed shut with red threading. Not going to lie.....I got a little giddy just now. What this man does for me makes my heart swell with such happiness to last me a lifetime.
"I'm pretty sure you can see the eyelids are missing. I figured it would be more fun to force them to watch as the darts or whatever are flying towards them rather than closing their eyes to hide their fear. Makes things more fun for us, you know," he said grabbing a black throwing knife then suddenly throwing it across. The knife flew barely making a sound until it hit a blue balloon next to the head of one of the men on the left side. The popping made him try to yell out but doing so he tried even louder since opening his mouth results in the thread ripping through his skin. His muffled screams sent pleasant chills up my spine and I couldn't wait to beat his ass since I have the eyes for distant targets.
"Hey, who said you could start? You didn't even state the rules yet!" I grabbed a dart then throwing it carelessly since it was merely a petty throw but to my surprise, it landed on the upper right cheek towards the eye of a different man on the middle right. Even though it was a petty toss I still smirked at Zach silently but obviously challenging him if that makes sense. Probably not.
"You see that sign above the board," he asked pointing to a white banner above the balloon board, "An immediate kill is automatically a loss unless you have more than fifty points which brings us to the points body parts are equaled to." After briefly looking at the banner, I saw the scoreboard hanging to the side stating I already had three points while Zach had zero. This is going to be so much fun.
Zach chose a dart landing it in between one man's eyes earning him a few points and my star successfully landed on the eye of another. Each man we made a hit on tried desperately to scream allowing the threads to tear through their skin slowly staining the colored balloons with blood.
The score was fifty-seven to sixty-three and even though we were over the limit of fifty we kept throwing our weapon choices carefully to not kill the men immediately but one had accidentally bled to death already. Bummer. It was my turn again so I chose a knife aiming directly for one of the eyes since it was worth ten points. Pulling my arm back with the knife in hand, I slowly released a breath I didn't know I was holding then threw it. As the knife flew, the man I was aiming for finally opened his mouth to scream ripping his chin to the upper lip to pieces but my knife went straight into his mouth before his pent-up noise turned into a simple yelp.
"Woah! Did you see that! Did you see that! It went like whoosh then like bam right in there," I yelled excitedly at Zach who rewarded me with a kiss to the cheek but I wanted more. In the end, I grabbed two knives simply throwing them at the heads of the remaining living targets then proceeded to pull Zach down by his collar. His rough lips working their magic over my soft ones while his hand went to tilt my head so his tongue could invade my mouth.
We separated after what felt like an eternity but yet it wasn't enough, it never is enough time. You could clearly see my heavy breath leave my body as if I had run a marathon yet he looked perfectly fine but then again he is always perfectly fine. "I love you."
My eyes widened at how genuine he said it. It's not the first time he said I love you but for me, every time is the first time and what made this moment more beautiful was the small specks of snow slowly falling around us. He brushed my hair behind my ears before placing a kiss on my head bring me closer to his body as his hands cupped my bump.
I don't know whether it was the heat of the lanterns or not but I knew my face was heating up so if anything, there is more than likely a hint of blush on me. "I love you too." He led us to a nearby bench so we could watch Ducky ride the Ferris Wheel as we ate funnel cake sprinkled in chocolate. "Hi, mommy!" She shouted hello to us as the ride begin to rise up slowly only as it rose, I could see a few carts below her a man on a noose being hanged.
"See that? I'm having a few of them tied below the carts and I even cut off their fingers to help. I swear we had some mice but the mice didn't have any info on the rat or their king," he said with a bit of boredom. By now six men were hanging on the Ferris Wheel with two still fighting to stay alive. "I'm not too sure what opinion I can give. I'm still trying to learn how to lead a group but in my years of assassinating I've had times where I had to be part of a group to get to my target."
"You will not be put in danger so get rid of whatever stupid ideas you have." I huffed at his remark, "Not all my ideas are stupid. I've gotten this far and I'm not going to go down so easily since I have so much to protect now, including you. I'm still a man and any real man will fight to their last breath to protect his treasures."
He lightly chuckled, "As your man, I will go to hell and kill the Devil himself if it meant for you to be safe and happy the rest of our lives." I looked into his dark brown eyes finding a hint of red making them so mesmerizing, "Whatever happens during this little war, promise you'll be my man and the father our children deserve."
A tear slipped down causing him to kiss it away before planting rough kisses on my neck most likely leaving hickeys as my whimpers only encouraged him further. He continued his trail up to my lips nibbling my bottom lip, "For you, for the kids, I'll kill everyone."
