It was a good 5 minutes before she got up flushed the toilet and cleaned herself up before walPotter to the sink and washing her mouth.
"Baby...this is has been going on for the past 3 days and almost every 6 hours you are throwing up." I said worried about my wife's health. I wrapped my arms securely around her, pulling her close to me. "I am fine, William." She said stubbornly.
"No my love, you are not fine." I said sternly. I placed a hand over her forehead and hissed at how hot she felt.
"You have a God damn fever, Helen!" I was angered by the fact that she won't tell me how she I feeling. She would never tell me, even if she had a headache or a cramp or anything she would not tell me! "Not so loud." She winced and held her head. My heart broke to see her in pain and the worst thing is she won't allow me to cure it.
"I am so sorry, my love. We are going to see a doctor first thing in the morning." I said and carried her bridal style to our bed. She sneezed a cute little girl sneeze and sniffed.
"You are probably coming down with something." I said softly to her and she gave me a weak nod. I placed her carefully on the bed and got in after her.
I placed a kiss on the tip of her nose which was slightly red and pulled her close to me. "I love you I wrapped my arms around her and drifted off to sleep.
I woke up to the rays of sunlight streaming into the room. I looked at my wife and she was peacefully sleeping, deciding not to wake her up, I snuck into the bathroom and took a shower and brushed my teeth.
I walked back to our bedroom and noticed Helen lying on her stomach, her arms and legs sprawled out on the bed. I walked closer to her and grabbed my phone, taPotter out a photo of her cute sleeping form. I set it as my wallpaper and her caller ID.
After lingering for a bit, I went to the closet and picked out a pair of jeans with a black t-shirt and sneakers.
I then went to Helen's side and chose something for her. A pair of jeans and a black flowy top with her favourite pair of Chuck Taylor's. I took out a jacket for her since it was getting cold outside. After laying out her clothes and getting a hot bath ready for her. I went down to the kitchen. "Jesse, your'll don't have to worry about maPotter breakfast." I said to Helen's longtime housekeeper. Since the house was really big we needed a big staff so we joined our most trusted employees and had them work here.
"Is there something wrong William?" She asked worriedly. Jesse is really close to Helen so I don't mind her being on a first name basis.
"Helen is not feeling well so I am going to take her to the doctor and I want to make her some breakfast." I said and she nodded.
"Sure thing William, but if you need help with anything just call, okay?" She said and I nodded before she left.
I got all the stuff ready deciding to make something light for her, that she can keep down without throwing up.
I remembered one of
I was done and Jesse helped put it on a tray and I carried it to our bedroom with a glass of fresh fruit juice.
I walked into our bedroom and Helen was still asleep. I placed the tray on the bedside table and sat down on the edge of the bed next to her. "Baby..." I called out.
"
She stirred and her eyelashes fluttered open revealing her warm and gorgeous brown eyes. "Yes love?" She answered a bit groggily .
"I made you some breakfast." I said and she glaced at the tray. She sat upright and I placed the tray on her lap. I grabbed her hand when she reached out for the spoon.
"I am hungry William." She whined and I chuckled finding her pouting cute.
"This is soo delicious." She moaned at the taste in her mouth.
"It's one of
Helen was done eating and I picked her up, carrying her bidal style after taPotter away the tray. "What are you doing?"
"I go a hot bath ready for you so I am taPotter you to the bathroom."
"I can walk perfectly fine." She argued.
"I know but you are weak and you might fall." I said and she seemed to drop the topic. I took off her clothes and placed her in the tub.
"I can bath myself, William." She said as soon as I reached for the soap.
"You are sick and you need to save up your energy." I said in a tone that hinted that it was the end of the conversation.
I tried my best not to focus too much on my wife's heavenly body, which was a real task, if I might add. Once we were done. I carried her out of the bathtub and wrapped a towel around her small form and carried her off.
She was protesting all the way to the closet, complaining about how she is sick and not disabled but I wasn't taPotter any chances.
She persuaded me into letting her get ready by herself, and to make things worst she locked the door to the closet so I couldn't go in.
Within 5 minutes she was out again, dressed in The outfit I chose.
I wrapped my arms around her waist and leaned down capturing her lips in a kiss that told her all the emotions I was feeing right now, happiness, concern and most importantly love, the love I had for her. "Thank you so much, my love. I couldn't have asked for a better husband than you." She said with so much sincerity, her brown eyes sparkling with love. "Now my baby, I arranged an appointment with the doctor in half an hour, so we should get going." I said just as she paled and ran to bathroom.
I quickly followed after her and held her hair back and rubbed circles on her back as she threw up her breakfast.
Once she was done, she cleaned up and brushed her teeth and gargled her mouth.
"We really need to go to the doctor. I can't afford to lose the love of my life." I said looPotter at her.
I love this woman soo much that I would sell mysef to the devil just to make her happy. I would rather rot in hell than see her hurting. "Okay William." She said her voice coming out as a mere whisper.
I placed a kissed on her lips and carried her out and down to the living room.
"You are getting really irritating." She grumbled. I chuckled and kissed her temple.
"So now it is a problem that I carry my wife?" I smirked.
We reached the bottom of the stairs and Helen hid her face in my chest, when she saw our staff. "Helen, dear how are you feeling?" Jesse and my housekeeper Madeline walked up to us. Madeline had been my nanny since I was a little boy and now she works for me.
"A little better than before." She said softly.
"Oh sweetheart, this is the first time I saw you like this but you have a really great husband to look after you." Madeline said looPotter at her with a motherly look.
"I know." She said looPotter up at me.
"Well we better get going, we will be back in an hour or less." I announced and they waved u goodbye as we walked out of the door and towards the car. I got in and placed Helen on my lap, her head resting on my shoulder.
We told Marco to drive us to the doctor's office so I could be with Helen.
"Mrs Alexander?" They receptionist called just as we walked into the office.
I noticed Helen tensed as she looked at the lady behind the desk. She looked like a totally whore and not to mention the flirtatious looks she was giving me.
"Come on my love." I said placing a kiss on her temple, I made sure to make very clear to woman that I am happily married. I wrapped my arm aroundher waist and pulled her close to me as we walked into the office. "Mr and Mrs Alexander!" Doctor Davison greeted us happily. "It is such a pleasure to have your'll here.
For the past month and half that we were married. We gained a lot of fame, being titled as the 'royals' of the corporate world, both our businesses are high on top, so I see why they call us that. "But either way your'll didn't come here to sign autographs. So what seems to be the problem?" He said seriously.
"I have been experiencing a lot of headaches, pains in my lower back, throwing up, nausea, sneezing as well as a dry cough and a fever." Helen explained and I didn't even know that she was experiencing all those stuff.
I knew about the throwing up, nausea, fever and the headaches but not all the other
stuff. I glanced worriedly at my wife and so did the doctor but soon had a look of understanding on his face.
He nodded. "Mrs Alexander, may you please lay down on the bed." He instructed her and she walked to the bed and laid down.
I was worried but I knew that Helen was in good hands. Bradley is a very good doctor and a close friend of mine. He checked her heartbeat, temperature and shined the litte light thing in her eyes, he told her to open her mouth and shined the torch. Once he was done he nodded and left saying that he needed to get something.
"What do you think is wrong with me William?" She looked at me, fear in her eyes.
"I don't know my love but I am positive that Davison will find out. If not I will kick his ass." I said holding her hand and she laughed. "Mrs Alexander please may you go with Nancy to the bathroom and she will tell you what to do." Bradley said featuring to elderly nurse with a motherly smile. Helen nodded, getting up and left with the nurse.
"Bradley what is the story with my wife?" I asked or more like demanded as soon as we were alone. "Possessive much, huh William?" He smirked, his eyes shining with amusement.
"Cut to the chase, Davison." I said darkly and he chuckled.
"Why don't we wait until your wife gets back?" He said with a secretive smile and I narrowed my eyes at him.
The nurse came in a few minutes later but with no Helen. She said something to Bradley but I didn't hear what because I was freaPotter as to where my wife was.
"Let's go and check on your wife William." He smirked at me and I glared at him.
We walked to another room and Helen laid there on the bed with an unreadable expression. I went to her side and held her hand, placing a kiss on her temple. I didn't notice the screen until Broadly cleared his throat.
"Was it positive, Mrs Alexander?" He asked with a smirk glancing at me.
"I -I...I think?" She said still recovering from whatever she was under.
"Well this is going to determine, if you are or not." He said and told Helen to lift her top up.
He squirted a cold looPotter gel on her stomach before moving a wand thing over her stomach. A picture appeared on the screen and Bradley smiled.
"Well William, you want to know what is wrong with your wifey?" He smirked and I felt like punching him in the face.
"She has a cold-"
"Then why fucPotter bring her to this room if she has a cold!" I glared at him. Helen placed a hand on my shoulder, instantly calming me down. "You didn't let me finish, you ass. Your wife has a slight cold and..." He trailed off smirPotter at me. "And what?!"
"She is pregnant."
"What are you-" I stopped, my eyes widening.
"Congratulations William you are going to be a baby daddy and Helen is your baby mama!" He said with a smirk. I was shocked. "Yes William! You are going to be a fucPotter father!" Bradley yelled.
"Yes! yes! Oh thank God yes!" I was over joyed and Helen had tears in eyes smiling happily at the screen.
"So there is your little munckin. Since it it is still developing you won't be able to see much." He pointed to the screen.
"Baby, I lied when I said you made me the happiest man alive when you married me. Right now I am the happiest man alive!" I grinned and kissed her.
"We are going to be mommy and daddy soon." She choked out and I kissed her again, she smiling against my lips.
"I never thought I would live to see the day when William Alexander would be married and going to be a father." Bradley said patting my shoulder.
"Thanks Brad." I said to him.
"You shouldn't be thanPotter me, you should be thanPotter Helen." He said and glanced a Helen who was smiling at the screen. "Let's get you cleaned up and then your'll can go and tell the world!" He said with grin and she laughed. He wiped off the gel and Helen got up, fixing her top.
"So this is a prescription for your meds and you will need to take a blood test just to be on the safe side." He said handing Helen the paper. After that we got her meds and did the blood test and since Bradley is such a good friend (note the sarcasm) he told us that the results will arrive at noon tomorrow.
We left the office and walked to the car. I helped Helen into the car and told Marco to take us back to the house.
"No words can describe how happy I am right now." I said placing my hand on her stomach. She sighed and rested her head on my shoulder.
"Same here, we are going to have a baby William. A baby boy or girl." She said it like she couldn't believe it. "I love you so much Helen. No matter how many times I tell you, it still won't measure to how much I love you." I said and kissed her passionately, our lips moving in perfect sync. I bit herlip and she gasped, giving me a chance to slip my tongue in and dance with hers.
We pulled away breathless, her lips evidence that we were maPotter out.
I pecked her lips and knowing me I just didn't have enough so I kissed her again another 2 times.
"We should tell Selene that you are pregnant. We promised that she would be the first that we will tell." I said and she nodded taPotter out her phone and dialling her number.
She put it on speaker and soon we heard Selene voice.
"Hey!! Girl who only remembers me now because she is too busy doing God knows what with her husband." She greeted sarcastically and I chuckled. "Sel, we have something to tell you..." Helen said with a smile, looPotter at me.
"Is Mr Hotshot there? Tell him to kill himself before I do for stealing my best friend." She said.
"Yes Selene and I can't help myself, my wife is just too darn beautiful. I can't keep my hands off her." I smirked and she made gagging sounds. "Please I don't want to throw up!"
"Do you want to hear the news now or not?" Helen asked and I could imagine the look on Selene's face. "Of course!" She exclaimed.
"Well, you are going to be an aunt!" Helen said excitedly. It was silent on the end before we heard something crash and someone curse.
"Why the fuck are you people staring at! Get on with you lives!" Selene said angrily before taPotter a breath.
Chapter 56: Our first Christmas...
I yelped when someone lifted me up excitedly and jumped around happily. "W-william!! Put me down!" I giggled as he twirled me around. "No baby, today is Christmas eve! My very first Christmas eve with you my love!" He grinned and I giggled, placing a kiss on his lips. "I love you." I said as he walked us downstairs.
"I love you too
"
"Is that an option?" I smirked and he groaned.
"No, we need to get you to the office so you can close up, then we can talk bout spending all day in bed." He said with a flirtatious wink.
"Okay but just so you know today is the Christmas eve party that we need to attend." I reminded him and he let out an exasperated sigh.
"Please no sex on my clean counters." William's long time housekeeper Mariana said as she and Jesse snickered.
I felt the warmth creep up my cheeks and I hid my face in William's chest.
He let out a chuckle. "Don't worry Mariana, that only happens behind closed doors...of our bedroom." God! Could he make this any more worse than it already is.
"What the fuck, William?!" I shrieked in embarrassment.
"Sweetheart, I was only reassuring our staff that no stuff will happen while in their presence." He snickered. "Fuck you, jackass." I said and wiggled out of his arms. I stood up and fixed my clothes. "You are officially disowned." I said and he stared at me in shock.
"Aw Helen don't be so harsh on him, you don't want the baby to be fatherless." Jesse defended him.
"I don't think the baby will be fatherless...William will make sure he will be there." I said with an exaggerated sigh.
We talked about this, William said he will always be there even if I don't want him there, I will just have to suck it up and endure his presence.
It gave me reassurance to our relationship and marriage. I think I will suffocate from all the love he is giving me. I never thought that I could ever love someone like how I lov
e him.
"Come on, let's out some food in you so my child doesn't starve." He chuckled when I glared at him. We ate breakfast, during which William kept trying to steal some of mine and I got all angrty and defensive. "How far along are you Helen?" Mariana asked as I took my plate to the sink.
"2 months." I answered and she smiled.
"Just 7 more months until he or she is born." William said placing a kiss on my cheek. We left the kitchen after that and went back up to our bedroom where we got ready to go to the office. "Okay Minnie, is everything sorted for today?"
"Yes Helen, which means you can take the rest of the day off and spend time with that darling husband of yours." "I will think about it." I smirked and she laughed before walPotter out. "Mrs Alexander! Mrs Alexander!" My new assistant Tiffany burst into my office. "Tiffany, what did I say about bursting into my office." I raised an eyebrow and she slowed down. "Sorry Mrs Alexander. But the paparazzi are outside!" She said trying to catch her breath. "What?!"
"Yes Mrs Alexander, you should check the news." She said and I walked out of my office and saw most of the staff gathered around the tv.
I stared at the screen in shock. We wanted everything to be a secret and only reveal that we were having a baby, a few months later. "Is it true, Mrs Alexander?" One of my employees turned to me, maPotter everyone look at me. They all looked so eager to hear my answer.
But just when I was about to answer...
"Helen!!" William yelled out rushing out of the elevator with hisbrother s in tow.
"Mr Alexander!"
"Um hello everyone. Mind if I take your boss away for minute?" He asked and they shook their heads. He whisked me away into my office.
"I saw the news and the paps camped out by the entrance and I got worried." He said with a concerned look in his eyes. "I am fine, William." I smiled at him and he let out a breath before wrapping his arms around my waist. "I am glad you are okay." He murmured and placed a kiss on my lips.
"Um sorry to interrupt your make out session but people want to know if there is a new Alexander or not." Anthony poked his head into my office, looPotter a bit disorientated. "We will be right out." William said and he left.
