I walk, or waddle I should say, out to the bar and see Hanger sitting with Bear. "Baby."
"Yeah, Crazy Girl?"
"Will you take me over to see Jacey?"
"Yeah, let's go." He helps me into the truck, fuck I can barely get in this damn thing. We pull up to her house and he helps me out.
"Okay, thank you for bringing me. I'll call you when I'm ready for you to come get me. I love you."
"Alright, Babe. I love you too." He leans down giving me a kiss, while making sure to rub on my belly. After I started showing that's what he started doing all the time, he says it's to let them know that their daddy loves them. I think it's so cute how this rough biker does the littlest things that are so sweet. God I love this man.
I go up to the door and ring the bell. She comes, opens the door for me, holding it open wide so I can fit.
"Hey, Zoey. How are you doing?" I make my way to the couch and sit down, already tired from just that little walk from the truck to the couch.
"I'm okay. How are you?"
"I’m good, really good. What do you mean okay?"
"Well, I'm fucking huge, I waddle, and look at how big my ass is." I start to get tears in my eyes.
"Hey, it's okay, all that is normal, Honey. You will be back to normal in no time. You remember how big I got."
"Yeah, I guess you’re right. Hanger tells me all the time how sexy I am. I just don’t see it."
"He can see it, that's all that matters."
"Yeah, I guess you’re right. I got my next doctor appointment in a couple of weeks."
"Yeah, then you will start going weekly."
"I know. I hope it makes it go faster. I'm ready to see these little ones.” I say while rubbing both my hands on my belly. “How's Kellen doing?"
"He's really good, getting big so fast, he's napping right now. So how is everything else going?"
"It's going good. Since we told my parents what we are having, my mom hasn't stopped buying baby stuff. God between them and Hanger, these girls are gonna be so spoiled." We both laugh. "Oh, he bought us a house."
"What?"
"Yeah, when we went to tell my parents about the girls, after dinner Hanger walked me to our house."
"What do you mean he walked you?" She has a confused look on her face and an eyebrow cocked.
"Well, you know that house down the street from my parents that I always loved. He asked my dad to help him find a house, and my dad told him about that one. He bought it."
"No, shit? What does it look like on the inside, do you love it?"
"Yes, I love it. The house is almost two thousand square feet, it has four bedrooms, three bathrooms. You know the whole outside is red brick, with white pillars on the porch. When you walk in the walls are painted white, so I can change them if I want, and it has a built in fireplace that burns real wood not a gas one. The living room has vaulted ceilings and throughout the house is all hardwood and tile flooring. It has an open floor plan, so you can see the dining room and kitchen from the living room. My favorite part is the kitchen it has granite countertops, they are a light brownish color and it has all stainless steel appliances. All the bedrooms have walk-in closets, the master suite is huge with a bathroom built onto it. That bathroom has a marble Jacuzzi tub, with tiles on the walls, it makes it look like stone. Tile flooring and it has his and her sinks, with a granite counter top that matches the flooring and the tub. The outside though is something else. It has a huge fenced in yard so the girls can play out there when they get older, with a patio, and grill area."
"Oh, Zoey, that sounds amazing."
"It is. We are moving in this weekend. I'm gonna miss all the guys though."
"I know you will but you can still go see them anytime you want. You know that."
“I know. So how are you and Bear doing?"
"I have no fucking clue." I cock my eyebrow and look at her. “What do you mean you have no clue?” I should of known what her reply would be before it even came out of her mouth.
“Just because we have a baby together doesn’t mean we are together.” The look on her face I know there’s something else there, but she's so secretive about everything. One day I'll find out what it is, if it's the last thing I do.
"Have you talked to Chatty?"
"We talk on the phone I keep her updated on the pregnancy. She seems to be doing okay."
"That's good I miss her."
"Me too." I stay a while longer, I get to feed and hold Kellen, and she’s breast feeding and bottle feeding. Then I call Hanger to come get me.
We are in the room waiting when the doctor comes in. "Hi guys how are you?"
"We are good. I'm ready to have these babies." She chuckles.
"I bet you are. Are you having any problems?"
"No."
"That's good. I need to talk to you about a few things."
"Okay." I'm getting really nervous and I can see Hanger is too.
"Don't worry, Zoey, the babies are fine. But because you have had a miscarriage, I want to take some precautions just to be on the safe side. I would like you to be on bed-rest from now until we schedule a C-section. I think a C-section would be our best bet."
"Why do I need to have a C-section?"
"It is just a safety precaution, Zoey. I feel that’s the safest way for you to deliver. To get both babies out with the smallest amount of risk."
"Okay, set it up then." Hanger is the one who answers.
"Okay, so it will be set for one week before your due date. You will check into the hospital in labor and delivery at 5 am and we will do it at 8 am. Now remember if you start to have any pain you need to come in, to get checked. They could decide to come earlier and we will do a C-section then as well if that’s the case as long as birth hasn’t progressed too quickly."
"Okay, Doctor Greene. Thank you."
"You’re welcome, Zoey. I'll see you next week, if you go into labor before the set date get to the hospital immediately and call me. It doesn’t matter what time it is, I will meet you there."
"Okay, see you next week."
I walk out feeling a bit overwhelmed. Hanger takes me out to our spot on the hill. The ride there is quiet. Once he parks he turns to me and takes my hand "How do you feel, Babe?"
"I feel overwhelmed and a little scared."
"Crazy Girl, I know it's scary but everything will be fine."
"Hanger, the babies will be here in three weeks."
“I know, Babe. We got our house, and I’ll make sure everything is ready before then. Come here, Crazy Girl." I lean into him and put my head on his chest, he kisses the top of my head and we stay to watch the sun set over the city.
We got all moved into our house with the help of all the guys. I had Hanger and the guys do some decorating too, now we have a nursery, it’s covered in pink and zebra print my favorite. When it got done Hanger said “Fuck, the next time I get you pregnant it better be a fuckin' boy.” I couldn’t help but bust out laughing at him. They also did maroon walls in the living and dining room. The furniture in the living room is dark brown and it looks great and the dining room set is dark wood. I also got all the furniture we would need for the rest of the rooms in the house. We turned one of the bedrooms into a playroom for the girls, for when they get older.
I've been on bed-rest for a week now, just within a couple days I was bored out of my fucking mind. I think I complained too much and that's why Hanger bought me a kindle. Wait until Jacey and Ever gets here and I tell them what I've been reading. I hear a knock on the door "Come in." Yay, they are finally here seems like forever since I’ve seen other people.
"Hey, Zoey, how are you?"
"I'm fucking bored out of my fucking mind."
"I bet." Ever says while laughing.
"Oh my god, you guys gotta hear this."
"What?" Jacey asks.
"Okay so I was complaining about being bored one day and Hanger brought me this kindle. Well I have formed an addiction to one clicking books."
/>
"Okay, how can you get an addiction to buying books?" Jacey says while laughing.
"You guys don't understand. These books are so fucking good. Like I got favorite authors now. M.N. Forgy she writes this M.C. series. OH MY GOD, it is so good. I'm waiting for the next one to come out! Then there's this other author her name is Tijan, she has wrote a lot of books. She wrote this series about these two high school brothers and a girl, it was so amazing I had to one click the rest of her books. Ok and then there's MJ Fields, good lord her books are hot. Her series that I have read is about these four brothers and Jacey they are hot and tattooed and they talk about having Prince Albert’s, and they own a tattoo shop with their mom."
Ever says "Shit, Zoey maybe I should take up reading."
"Yes, yes you should." Then we all laugh.
"Well, Writer has a prince albert already." My eyes get huge. That’s something I didn’t know.
"What do you mean he already has one?" I'm looking at my sister in shock and Jacey is looking at me the same way.
"Just what I said he already has one."
"Is it like how the books describe it?"
"Well, if they describe it as amazing, then I would say yes." Then we all bust up laughing again. "Have you talked to Chatty? I miss her."
"I know I do too. I've talked to her some she said she doesn't plan to come back." We all get sad when we talk about her. They stay awhile longer we talk and laugh. It has been a lot of fun. A little while after they leave Hanger comes in and looks at me like I’m in trouble. "Crazy Girl, have you been reading that fuckin' book porn again."
"Umm, why? I was telling the girls about the books I've been reading."
"Because Bear just came to me and said that you need to quit tellin' Jacey shit that’s in your books. She asked him to get his fuckin' dick pierced." I bust out laughing and Hanger's trying his best not to smile.
"What did he say?"
"He said ‘fuck no he ain't gettin' his dick pierced. Then her come back is ‘why not? Writer's got his done.’" I bust out laughing even harder this time he joins in.
"What about you, Baby? Will you get it done?"
"Fuck no! Besides I think you like my cock just fine the way it is."
He's got that right. He gets undressed and climbs in bed behind me, holding me as close as he can until I fall asleep.
Zoey is scheduled to have the babies tomorrow morning, so I came to the club to get everything settled. I make sure Gunner has everything under control, so he could run shit for me while I take care of Zoey and the girls, just until Zoey is up moving around and healed from the surgery. I'm so excited to meet our babies its fuckin' unreal, it's hard to believe I will get to hold them in the morning.
Gunner walks up to me "Hey, Prez, can I talk to you for a minute."
"Yeah, Gunner, let's go in my office." We get in there, I shut the door, and then we take our seats. "What's up?"
"Wanted to give you an update on the plans we have going with the Cobras and other chapters."
"Okay, what's happening?"
"We are going in a month. Both chapters will be here, along with the Cobras."
"Okay, you got everything worked out, everything set up?"
"Yeah. I'll let you know when it's done."
"Be safe, brother. Get everyone in and out in one piece. Yeah?"
"Yeah."
"I know you can do it. I trust you, Gunner."
"Thanks man."
I go home that night to my beautiful Ol' Lady. We try to get to sleep early but I really don't think either of us got much sleep. We get up in the morning and head to the hospital, she gets checked into labor and delivery. Once she's in her room, they have her change into a gown and a nurse puts a monitor on her belly to watch the heartbeats of the babies and track if she is having contractions. After all the questions asked by the nurse it seems like time is moving fast. They get her prepped for surgery and before I know it it's time. They take her back so they can get the spinal block in and give me scrubs to put on. When they take me back she is laying on the surgical table with her arms stretched out, and they have a sheet separating the top part of her from the lower half. They motion for me to sit in the stool that is next to her head, I take the seat then take her hand I lean over and kiss her forehead.
Doctor Greene says "Okay, Zoey, it's time. You are going to feel some pressure that’s from us pulling out the babies just relax and breathe."
"Okay." I start rubbing her hand. I'm fuckin' nervous.
"Dad, you want to look?"
"Yeah."
"Stand up." I stand up and look over the sheet. They cut across the bottom of her belly, and I can see inside her stomach. I watch as they pull the first baby out. The doctor hands her over to the nurse, and then they pull out the second baby. As both the nurses clean out the babies’ mouths and wipe off both babies are crying with strong lungs. "Congratulations, you two you got two beautiful little girls.” Those cries from both of them was like nothing I have ever heard. I didn't know you could have so many feelings at once. It brought tears to my eyes, and I looked down at Zoey and she also has tears falling. I lean down and kiss them away.
"You did so great, Babe."
"No, Hanger. We did great."
"Yeah, we did." I give her a smile and she smiles back. Once they get my girls cleaned up a little they bring them over to us. They let us see them, then they have to go to the nursery. They let me take one and a nurse takes the other. I have to wait to see Zoey until they have her stitched up, before she is back in her room. When I get to the nursery you can see her family through the glass taking lots of pictures, giving hugs, congratulations and crying. Once she gets back to her room and settled they give the okay for us to all go in. She has a little swelling to her face and she looks tired, but I've never seen her look more beautiful. My Ol’ Lady, the mother of my children and my soon to be wife.
Her mom says “So did you guys decide on names yet?" Zoey wanted to wait until she seen them to give them names, so we never decided.
"Mom, when they bring them in, we will hold them, look at them, and then we will decide."
"Okay." We all laugh. About thirty minutes later they bring them in. They have on little diapers, pink shirts, wrapped in white blankets with pink bears, and with hats that have big pink bows that are almost bigger than their heads.
The nurse with baby A says she weighed in at 6lbs even and 20 inches long. The nurse with baby B says she weighed in at 5lbs 10ozs and was 19 1/2 inches long. They are both doing great and are healthy.
Zoey says "Give me baby A. Hanger you take baby B and come sit over here with me." I sit on the edge of her bed, trying to make sure not to hurt her. The nurses bring the babies over and give them to us. "Hanger, take her hat off." We both take their hats off and our girls have heads full of dark brown hair. "Do you have a name in mind, Hanger?"
"I like the name Harper."
"I like that too. So baby b is Harper. I like the name Ava."
"Yeah, I like that, Babe."
"Okay, so meet Harper and Ava Black." Everyone claps softly, so they don't wake them. Everybody takes turns holding them and then they leave. I'm still sitting on the bed holding Harper while Zoey is holding Ava.
"How you feel, Babe?"
"I'm sore and tired." I push her button for the nurse, they come in and give her something for her pain. After they give her some pain meds, I tell her to lay back and rest. Once her head is back, I look at my family. I softly start singing Creed's Arms Wide Open to them.
The next day all the guys come to see her along with Jacey. They all fell in love with the girls. They told Zoey she did good and congratulated me. A few hours after they leave there’s a knock on the door. Zoey is sleeping so I say come in. There is no way I could have been prepared for who just walked in the motherfucking door. I take a look at her and my rage surfaces. "What the fuck are you doing here?"
"Hi, Dominic. You’re so grown up now."
"Yeah, because you haven
't seen me in how many fucking years? Mother, its Hanger now." I say with so much anger. She gives me a nod dropping her head. "You wanna tell me what the fuck you’re doing here and how you knew I was here."
"Gunner's mom told me."
"Get out. Get the fuck out of here." I growl out.
"Domin..."
"I said it's Hanger NOW...GET...THE...FUCK...OUT...!"
"Baby." I look over at Zoey, shit. I woke her up."
"I'm sorry, Babe."
Zoey looks at her and asks "Can I help you with something? Who are you?"
"I'm Victoria Black, Hanger's mom." She has a sad look on her face, I really don’t give a fuck. What makes her think she can come in here after all these years and after what she did? Zoey is watching me and she sees how pissed I am.
She then turns to her and says "It's nice to meet you."
"Thank you, it's nice to meet you too."
"No, Zoey. Stop she needs to leave now."
"Hanger, maybe you should hear her out."
"No, fuck no. Zoey she needs to leave."
"Hanger, it's your mom. Hear her out."
"Fine. I'll hear her out and then she can get the fuck out like I've been telling her to. So mom what do you have to say?" I say sarcastically while crossing my arms over my chest.
"Where would you like me to start?"
"Why don’t you start with why you left?"
"I left because I was never in love with your father."
"Why did you leave me and never come back to see me?"
"When I told your father that I was leaving and that I was taking you with me, he wouldn't let me take you."
"You’re fuckin' lyin'."
"No, Hanger. I'm not he said if I left that I couldn't take you. He said you had to be raised in the club, and that if I did leave then I was never allowed back there. If I showed up he would have me taken out."
"How did you know I was here?"
