Faithful (Wanted 3)

“Oh shit! I didn’t tell you. ”
While she told me about how all the medicine she had been taking when she was so sick had caused the birth control pills to not work properly, I started daydreaming about her holding a baby girl in her arms.
“So, that’s the due date they gave me,” she said.
“Wait. What? I didn’t hear the date. ”
She let out a laugh. “Did you hear anything I just said?”
I smiled, and I kissed her again. “Yes, ma’am, I did, but I got carried away, dreaming about you holding our little girl. ”
“We’re due on September seventh. ”
I smiled as I felt my dick getting harder. I gently took her off my lap, laid her down, and rolled on top of her. “He’s ready. ”
She grinned from ear to ear as she wrapped her legs around me, and we made love again.
By the time we packed everything up, I sent Jenny a text, telling her she’d knocked yet
another one out of the ballpark. I was ready to get to my parents’ house. I was excited to tell them that Heather and I would be getting married, but I couldn’t wait to see my mother’s face when we told her about the baby.
“Jen said to just leave it all, and she and Aaron would come and pick it up. You ready to head back?”
Heather smiled and nodded as she got up on Rose. The whole way back, we talked about the wedding. Heather admitted that she was worried about what her school administration would think about being pregnant and not married. We decided that she would take the rest of the year off and go back next fall…if she wanted to. I had a feeling the moment she saw that baby, there would be no way in hell she would want to leave our little girl.
“How soon do you want to get married?” I asked.
She smiled and bit down on her lower lip.
I let out a moan as I watched her nibble on it. “Princess?”
She turned to me. “Yeah?”
“Stop biting your lip. ”
She let out a small laugh and looked straight ahead. “Right away. Since Ari and I are both due in September and Amanda’s getting bigger by the day, I want to get married right away. The sooner, the better! What about you?”
“I’d marry you today if you said you wanted to. ”
We talked about our ideas for a wedding. We’d never really talked about marriage before, but I wasn’t surprised to see we wanted the same thing—something small near the ocean with just family and close friends.
When we made our way up toward the barn, Ari was leaning up against the door with a smile.
“Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I thought y’all got lost. ” She winked at me and then glanced over at Heather.
“Nope, not lost at all,” I said with a wink of my own.
“Pregnancy makes you feel like the damn fucking Energizer Bunny, huh, Heather?”
I glanced over to my girl to see that she was blushing. I laughed, and I had to adjust myself as I got off the damn horse.
Jeff came walking up and slapped me on the back. “Congratulations, dude…on getting your memory back and landing the girl of your dreams. ”
I smiled as we headed into the barn. “Where’s Luke?”
Jeff turned to me and laughed. He opened a stall door a little and gestured for me to look in. Luke was sound asleep in his car seat.
My heart melted at the sight of him. “Right where he belongs—in a damn horse stall like his daddy. ”
