“What you’re telling me, miss left hand is doing the job”
“Miss left hand”
“Yeah” she lifts her hand waving it
“You’re too much Chelsea”
“Oh, come on, I tell ya my vibrator is the best lover I ever had” we burst into laughter and I smack her again playfully “No, but seriously, we should go to the sex store they have some great products to help release the tension” she wiggles her eyebrows at me “But seriously, I'm fucking ecstatic that your back, when are you coming back to work”
“Razor won't let me, told Cuff and Socket if I came in that they had to send me home straight away, he's worried about all the cleaning chemicals”
“Are you shittin' me” I shake my head
“Unfortunately, not” we both laugh as Cuff and Socket walk in from having lunch
“Niya” Cuff says pulling me up and hugging me than Socket grabs me and hugs me tight to
“You ok darlin'” Socket asks me he pulls me in holding me tighter, I give him a reassuring squeeze to let him know I'm good
“You coming back to work or not, I'm fuckin' sick of answering phones” Cuff says
“I thought Razor said I couldn't come back”
“Yeah well we work here not him” Socket says and I smile at the both of them
“So, I can come back”
“Fuck yeah you can” Cuff tells me and I jump up and down and Socket grabs me
“Fuck darlin' don't do that the baby might fall out” I laugh
“Really Socket it's just ganna fall out, here on the floor” he turns red
“Well I don't fuckin' know how you know.... how that all works” he points to my belly
“Well from what I've read so far, the baby is safe in here until it's ready to come out so don't worry” I pat him on the arm

When I'd gotten home later that night after we all went out for dinner Razor was on a rampage about the boys giving me my job back
“I'm ganna fuckin' kill those two, I told them you were not going back to work”
“Razor I have four more months until the baby comes, I can't just sit around and do nothing I want to work”
“But the chemicals”
“Razor the babies fine, I'm fine and working at the tattoo shop is not going to hurt the baby... ok”
“Fuck... fine but if you get sick and something happens to my Grandbaby, Bella Mae's killing some motherfuckers” he pulls me in for a hug
*
Trying to sleep the night before my ultrasound was impossible, I was so nervous about seeing Colt again. I know I'd already seen him when I told him about the baby, but having to spend time with him had my heart rate up and the baby kicking like mad.
*
As I pull into the doctors’ car park Colt was sitting on his bike (god he's gorgeous) I have to feel around for the handle so I can pull the seat back so I can get out, my belly now rubs on the steering wheel and I'm only five months, god what's it going to be like in four months when it's cooked and ready to pop... Argh I hate being pregnant.
“Morning ba.... Niya” Colt says
“Morning” I grumble and walk past him he runs up and grabs the door before I can open it
“Argh”
“You in a bad mood ba...Niya”
“No shit Colt do I look fucking happy” I snap at him
“Ok” he says and steps away from me
“Good morning how can I help you” the nurse behind the reception asks but looks at Colt and not me, making me roll my eyes
“Yes, I have an appointment with Dr Hardy, Niya Stevens” I tell her smiling but really wanting to punch her in the face for eye fucking Colt right in front of me (bitch)
“Oh yes take a seat and she'll be out in a minute” she smiles still looking at Colt
“Thank you” I say pulling Colt over to the seats
“Your doctors a woman” Colt asks me and I look at him
“Yes, Colt it is the twenty first century, us little women can be anything we want to be you know” I feel like shit for snapping for the fucking bitch of a nurse flirting and for Colt looking so god dam gorgeous, I feel like I'm going to snap I'm so tired from being pregnant and wonder if this is normal, plus I'm hungry and I need to fucking pee again.... argh
“Where you going ba...Niya”
“Restroom” When I get back out the nurse is talking to Colt playing with her hair and smiling, I roll my eyes at the blatant bend me over and fuck me flirting that she doing. As I get closer to them Colt stands up placing his arm over my shoulders and the nurse smiles again.
“It was nice to meet you Colt” she says walking off shaking her ass more than necessary, the moment she’s around the corner I shake Colt’s arm off and sit.
“You ok ba…Niya” he says I grab a magazine and sit holding in my anger
“I’m fine”
“Ok” he says sitting next to me pulling his phone out, we wait for what feels like an eternity and I need to pee again so I stand up again
“Where you going now?”
“Restroom again”
“You just went”
“Yeah well Colt I have an active child in here who loves to play football with my bladder” I speak a little louder and I storm off towards the toilet again. This time when I come out Colt is all alone and I sit next to him
“Better” he asks me I nod my head as the two nurses behind the counter pretend like there not talking about Colt, their stupid giggles fucking me off even more
“Niya Stevens” the nurse calls my name
“Yep” I say and I follow her to the doctor’s office. I already meet the Doctor when I got to town Maggie telling me she's a really good OB/GYN
“Well hello again Niya and who is this” Dr Hardy says holding out her hand to Colt
“Colt” he says shaking her hand back
“So how are you feeling”
“You want the list”
“Ok”
“I'm tired, I ache everywhere, my back is killing me, I'm constantly hungry, I need to pee every minute, my feet are swollen, I just barely fit into my car, my boobs are sore and have doubled in size and I'm horny as hell and I'm huge, am I supposed to be this big I'm only five months and all the books I've read the women don't look anything like me they have all cute little bumps and I look like a fat balloon and this little person loves to kick me and that's about it”
“Well that is a list that unfortunately comes with the territory of being pregnant I'm afraid and your size is normal Niya your just not use to seeing yourself like this, you have a bit of water retention you just need to rest and relax ok”
“ARGH I'm so over this” the doctor laughs
“Come on let’s get you up so we can do the ultrasound ok”
“Fine” I hand Colt my purse and lay on the table and I feel the baby moving again
“Let’s have a look at this little one” she pulls the machine over and turns it on
“Dad you going to come and look” she says to Colt, he comes and stands next to me and watches the doctor play around with the machine she than lifts my dress and places a paper cloth over my pelvis squirting gel on my belly
“Ok let’s get started” there’s a few beeps and the screen comes to life and I can instantly hear my babies heart beat
“What's the noise?” Colt asks
“That Mr. Stevens is the babies heart beat”
“It's Wade”
“Sorry” she says looking at Colt
“My name its Mr. Wade not Stevens, but just call me Colt”
“Oh, my apologies, sorry Colt” He turns to look at the screen and I look at him (what's he thinking) he can see and hear the baby and reaches and grabs my hand and squeezes (god I miss him)
“Baby” he says and I look away and pull my hand out of his, I want to comfort him but I'm scared and still a little hurt. (don't be a bitch)
“Ok are we finding out what the sex is today”
&nbs
p; “You can tell that already”
“It's not 100% but it can be around 70% accurate” we both nod and she hits more buttons and moves the wand around my tummy more “Here we are.... it's a boy” she announces this time I reach for Colt's hand and he squeezes it and I smile (a boy my son our son)
“A boy, are you sure doc” Colt asks
“Yep I'm pretty sure have a look” she points to a spot on the screen, I have no idea what she's looking at and I don't care I'm having a boy “Ok Niya you can get up now” She helps me sit up and I wipe my belly “The baby is very healthy everything looks good, have you thought about your birthing plan”
“I'm still deciding what I want” Colt looks between the doctor and me
“What plan?” he asks confused
“Niya's birthing plan for when the baby comes”
“Oh, I thought you went to the hospital and you have it there”
“Some women like Niya hear are thinking of alternatives like home births or water births” Colt looks at me
“What? Why not the hospital what if something goes wrong Niya the hospital is the safest place”
“Well I see you to have a lot to talk about, Niya Colt it was lovely to see you and meet you Colt make another appointment for four weeks with Louise at the front ok and research the birth plan Niya have you started you lamas’ classes yet”
“No”
“Well there's a great one on Tuesday nights at the rec center I've got a pamphlet here somewhere, here take this, have a look watch videos online read having a baby can be a lot of homework”
“Thanks doctor Hardy I'll look into it” I tell her and get up Colt steps beside me and places his hand on my lower back and I swear I get wet instantly (god I miss his hands on me) but the stubborn part that is still pissed at him has me stepping forward out of his touch. The second his hand is gone I miss it, I make another appointment on the way out with the flirty eye fucking my man nurse and Colt opens the door again for me.
“What the fuck are lamas’ classes?” he asks the second where outside
“They teach you how to breath during the birth”
“Oh, ok and why don't you want to have the baby in the hospital”
“I'm just thinking about other options Colt; Maggie and I have been talking about home births and they seem interesting”
“You’re not having the baby at home” I stop walking and turn and look at him (Is he seriously telling me what to do)
“Excuse me”
“You fuckin' heard me, my son will be born in a fuckin' hospital, where there are doctors and nurses. People who do that shit for a living, there the only people who are going to deliver my son safely” I take a deep breath and count to five in my head.
“This and I point to my stomach is my body Colt and my baby, if I want to have him in Maggie and Razor’s front fucking room than that's where I'll have my son. I'm the one who will be bringing him into this world so I will be the one deciding where he will be born so you... Mr. Tobias Wade can go fuck yourself” I walk off to my car and get in, actually starting it and driving off is another thing trying to adjust my seat again.... ARGH I hate being pregnant.
Chapter Five
Colt
I watch as she gets into the car and fucks around with the seat, starts it and drives off
“Fuckin' women” I mumble as I get on my bike, I head straight for the clubhouse (fuck I need a drink)
“Yo, motherfucker why didn't you come back to work” Stryker asks me as he sits next to me at the bar
“Fuckin' Niya pissin' me off”
“What’d, she, do?”
“She seems to think that she's having the fuckin' baby in Razor and Maggie's front fuckin' room”
“What the fuck are talkin' about?”
“Her birthing plan, she wants to have the baby at home”
“Fuck does the boss man know” I shrug my shoulders
“Dude I don't think he does, you know what he's like with Niya's safety do you really think he will let her have the baby at home”
“No, he wouldn't, thanks man” I jump up and run to Razor’s Office
(knock knock)
“What?”
“Hay Razor can I talk to you a minute?”
“Sit”
“Do you know about Niya's birthing plan?”
“Her what?” I know I've got her she may not listen to me but she'll sure as shit listen to Razor
“Yeah, her birthing plan you know when she has the baby where, how, that sort of thing”
“What the fuck are you talkin' about you go to the hospital and have it there”
“Oh, so you don't know that her and Maggie want to have the baby in your front room”
“WHAT?” he yells
“Yeah I was at the doctors today and Niya said about having the baby in your front room that her and Maggie have been talking about it”
“No, they have not mentioned it will you excuse me Colt, I have some fuckin' women to go home and yell at” he stands and leaves
“What the fuck did you say to him he almost pushed me over fuckin' grumpy old bastard” Jaxson says carrying a create of beers
“Oh, just enlightened him on some things going on in his house”
****
Razor
The ride to the house has my blood pressure at an all-time high (fuckin’ havin’ the kid at home like fuck). As I walk in the house I yell for both women
“Maggie, Niya get your asses in here now” I watch both women walk in “Sit” I tell both of them
“Razor what's wrong” Maggie’s says soundin’ annoyed
“Heard the funniest thing today”
“Oh yeah” Maggie says “Enlighten us”
“That Niya plans on having the baby here” I point to the floor
“What are you talking about Razor?” I hear Niya say “Fuckin’ Colt” I point at her “Exactly”
“Razor it was just an idea that Maggie and I had talked about” Niya says
“What?” Maggie says
“The home birth” Niya tells her
“Oh, Razor we were talking about it and it seemed like a good idea she'd be relaxed in her own environment and if anything went wrong we call for help”
“Call for help, woman have you lost your fuckin' mind” I raise my voice at her but don’t yell that’ll get me a week in the spare bedroom
“Razor”
“No, I'm puttin' my foot down, she has the baby in the hospital where there are trained people to deal with complications”
“Razor”
“Maggie, you can bitch and moan at me all you want you both can, but this I'm not budging on, she has the baby in the hospital and that's it” I leave both woman staring at me and head back to the clubhouse (at fuckin' home, no fuckin' chance)
****
Colt
My phone buzzed in my pocket and I look at the screen (Niya)
‘Hello’
‘Colt you bastard’ she says and I smile
‘Niya’
‘Don't Niya me Razor just left here yelling at Maggie and me did you put him up to it’
‘Why would I do that I just happened to mention in passing what your plan was and he was not happy, now if he decided that it was a bad idea and wanted to discuss it with you than that was his choice’
‘Fuck you Colt’ she says and hangs up, I hear a bike pull back in and Razor comes walking in
“All takin' care of” he says walking past me patting me on the back
“You, sneaky fucker” Nash says smilin' at me
“What?”
“You know what? using Razor to do your dirty work”
“Yeah well having the baby at home was a dumb fuckin' idea and I'm not lettin' her jeopardize my son’s life for her stupid plan”
“It's a boy” he asks and I smile the biggest smile in a long time
“Well fuck man we gotta wet the baby’s head” That night we drank to my boy all the brothers congratula
tin' me, cigars drinks and more drinks flowed that night, all in the name of my son and hopefully one day a future Devils Soldier.
