“You’re having my baby?”

I winked and strutted over to him. “I made up my mind; I’m keeping our baby.” I sang the line and stepped up close. “What do you think, are you happy?”

“Babygirl, I’m always happy, but right now, I’m beyond.” He tugged me tight to his chest. “Thank you Cheryl, for saving me.”

“Saving you?” I pulled back. “How so?”

“You have given me the perfect Little for my Daddy, and now a child to share our lives with. You saved me from a life of loneliness, look at what I’d be missing if it weren’t for you.”

He’d become quite romantic these past few months and I never tired of him telling me how much I meant to him. “Remember that for later Daddy, when I tell you the rest.” I pulled away. Now lets go, we have a party to get to, and friends to share our news with.

I hustled for the front door, grabbing my cute leather jacket to complete my look as Gabriel exited the bedroom, sliding the stick in his pocket.

“Eww, Daddy, you know I peed on that right? You can’t take it to the restaurant.”

“Oh yes I can, now tell me the rest before I tan your behind.”

The elevator door opened and I jumped in and pressed the button for the garage level. “There’s two, Daddy,” I yelled as the doors began to close. Gabe’s shocked expression was the lastthing I saw as the elevator closed. But I heard him yell out as the elevator started its descent.

“Cheryl, you better wait at the bottom. Twins? Holy crap, I’m in trouble.”

I broke out in a fresh peal of giggles. When the elevator opened I hid so I could jump out at him. It was a moment of realization, that my life had turned out better than I’d ever hoped for. I was with the man of my dreams, pregnant, and happier than I’d ever been.

The End
