"Eric! Ye need tae calm doon. Jazzy needs ye right noow and ye are acting like a wain. Git yersel together mate." I huff of my frustration and start calming down. "Good noow walk."
"She's losing the baby, isn't she?" I mumble after a few minutes.
"Aye, I think so mate. But ye canni loose it. Ye need tae stay strong fur the both of yous. She needs ye mate." I nod in agreement. We make it back to her room and go in. Dean and the nurse have left and Annie and Jazzy are sitting there crying and holding each other. Shit, fuck. I walk over and touch Annie's shoulder and she looks up and stands and hugs me. Then she goes over to Brody and they leave the room.
"Jazzy, princess. I'm so sorry baby." I gather her in my arms and we hold each other tight. She cries. And I find myself crying for the loss of my unborn child. "Oh Jazzy we will be ok. We will get through this. We will have lots and lots of babies. This one just wasn't meant to be ours." She nods and slowly pulls away.
"I love you Eric. I'm so sorry I wasn't able to carry this baby." I lean in and kiss her firmly. I want to take that doubt out of her. I pull away.
"It is not your fault Jasmine. These things happen all the time. Yes, it sucks it happened to us. But it was nothing you did wrong. We will try again. We will have our baby." She leaps up into my arms and hugs me tightly.
"I love you so much Eric."
"I love you too princess."
Chapter22
2 months later
"Princess where are we setting up the tree?"
"Over in front of the bookshelves near the stairs." I walk in to the living room from the kitchen. Annie and I are busy making Christmas cookies to give out to the community and bake sales. "Right there looks good baby, then we can sit on the couch and have a fire going and see the tree lit up. It will be so pretty." Eric leaves Brody holding the tree and comes over and hugs me too him.
"Mmmm, you smell like sugar cookies, and good enough to eat." He leans in and licks my neck and then nibbles it. I giggle and shrug, he chuckles and nibbles up to my ear and sucks on it. "I can't wait to eat you later princess. Did I tell you how hot you look covered in flour and wearing that apron." He whispers. I shiver.
"All right ye two, we huv a tree tae put up and cookies tae bake. Eric git yer arse back ower here noow." Brody interrupts.
"Go put up the tree." I slap his ass and dart off to the kitchen before he can grab me.
"Is this the last batch we are doing?" Annie asks with a whine.
"Yes, whine baby. Tomorrow Eric and I will drop them off before we head to your in laws for dinner."
"I can't believe Christmas is in three days. These last couple of months have flown by so fast. Even though we ended up staying a couple weeks longer than the guys wanted to in Maine, they were still able to get this other build done in time. Now we are all off for the next couple of months!" Annie sings.
"I know, It will be nice to just relax for a bit. We have all been busting our humps to get everything done in time. Hard work pays off!" I stick the last batch of the cookies into the oven. I refill mine and Annie's wine glasses and we walk into the living room.
"How's it look Jaz?" Eric asks while facing the tree. and I look at his ass in his tight ass hugging jeans and struggle to hold in my moan.
"Looks fucking sexy as hell. Especially with that little rip just below the cheek." He turns with a huge grin.
"I meant the tree princess, but that’s good to know you still find my ass sexy."
"It's perfect baby. The tree and your ass." I sit down next to Annie. Brody comes over and sits on the other side of her. Eric comes over to me and pulls me up from sitting and brings me to the other couch and pulls me down into his lap.
"You're perfect my princess" He kisses me softly on the lips.
"Are we going to decorate the tree or just look at it bare." Annie asks and the guys chuckle. "Get your perverted minds out of the gutter."
"No can do, it's a guy thing. We are always teetering in the gutter." Eric laughs. He and Brody stand and start to string the lights on the tree. That’s when the door opens and in walks Kevin and Dean?
"Aye, ye guys seen ootside yet, it's snowing like crazy." Kevin announces. Annie and i run to the floor to ceiling windows and look out like to kids.
"It's a magical winter wonderland!" Eric comes up behind me and wraps me up in his arms. Brody does the same with Annie. Then out of the corner of my eye i see Kevin walk over and Dean comes up behind him and embraces him in his arms. I smile and lay my head back into Eric's shoulder. I can't believe this is where my life is today. I have amazing friends and family. I'm married to the most wonderful man I could ever ask for and I have the most precious gift of all. I whisper into Eric's ear.
"Baby, I'm Pregnant." He looks down at me and smiles. I see all the love in his eyes and I melt. He kisses me and pulls me in tighter.
"I can't wait to meet our gift from our angel." He whispers back.
THE END
Eric and Jazzy’s story will continue with Brody and Annie’s as the girls go thru pregnancy and birth together. Look for that release in October.
