I sighed as I checked myself in the full-length mirror in Mia's room again.
"Maybe, I should change into a full piece." I said adjusting the halter strap of my bikini.
"What? No way you look hot!" Mia chimed looking over her shoulder at me.
"Yeah, but…" I let the sentence trail off as my hand and eyes go to the scar on my lower abdomen that the bikini bottoms don't cover. I now had two scars, one from where jack stabbed me and one where they removed my fallopian tube, luckily that one was low enough to hide, unfortunately Jacks scar wasn't.
"Don't worry about what people think." Kate said hugging my shoulders. "the only person that counts is Christian and he loves you." She added as Mia joined the hug. I smiled at them both in the mirror and nodded.
"and besides with boobs like that, no one's going to be looking anywhere else." Mia winked making us all laugh. "seriously, I envy both of you with those boobs." She smiled shaking her head
"Pregnancy does have its perks." Kate laughed, she wasn't showing yet apart from her lower stomach poked out the tiniest bit and if you didn't know she was pregnant you wouldn't be able to tell. My stomach did a flip at her words as I looked at her.
"yeah but what's Ana's excuse." Mia laughed at Kate, and I made myself laugh through my nerves. A part of me wants to tell them, they are my best friends but a bigger part of me is scared something will go wrong.
"So how many people have you invited to this party Mia?" I ask trying to change the subject just as the doorbell went again.
"Just a few of your friends from the restaurant and hospital," Mia said casually, and I eyed her suspiciously making Kate laugh.

"I don't know man, what if she says no."
"Elliot, you pretty much live together already and she's having your kid, she wouldn't be doing any of that if she didn't care about you. So I doubt she would say no." I said patting him on the shoulder brotherly, Elliot nodded as he looked down at Theo sleeping in the shade of the umbrella on the lounger next to me.
"Dude how do you do it?" Elliot said shaking his head. "I mean I love the fact that I'm going to be a dad…but what if I screw it up."
"Well I missed the baby part," I say watching Theo sleep. "and I got lucky, Ana's amazing with him…but I think as long as you love and protect them the best you can, your doing something right…But don't worry Elliot you and Kate are going to make great parents."
"thanks man." Elliot sighed as he sat back on his lounger.
"Aww bless him." Mom smiled as she came over and saw Theo curled up asleep and took the lounger next to him followed by Carla.
"How long has he been asleep?" Carla asked watching Theo
"Only about 10 minutes. I got him changed and brought him out here to wait for Ana and he just crashed." I smile from Theo to Carla
"Dude. Do you know any of these people?" He smiled as he looked around at the guests who had arrived.
"No." I laughed, "Oh wait theres some of Mia's friends." I said as I spotted a group of girls who just walked in.
"Oh god. They've spotted us." Elliot groaned as they stood a few feet from us clearly eyeing us and I couldn't help but laugh at him. Kate has really mellowed Elliot, normally he would be the life of the party, the notorious lady's man.
"Dude I need a drink." I sighed after I couldn't take the stares and giggles anymore. "Mom will you keep an eye on Theo for me?"
"Of course." Grace smiled motherly at me.
"You two go have fun. We'll watch him." Carla smiled as she sipped her drink.
"Thanks." I smiled at them, "You coming?" I asked turning to Elliot and we headed towards the bar, when Elliot suddenly stopped, making me nearly walk into him. "Ell, what the hell?" I sigh frustratedly, but Elliot just pointed not moving his eyes away from whatever it was he was looking at. I followed his finger, my dick instantly twitching alive as my eyes landed on Ana. She was walking out of the house laughing and talking happily to Kate and Mia, wearing nothing but a black bikini with gold metal rings holding it together in-between the breasts and at the sides of the pants. She looked stunning.
"Holy fuck!" I breathed
"You got that right." Elliot said swallowing hard and I know he was looking at Kate but my eyes could only see Ana.
"Ana! Kate!" a hispanic looking guy called as he headed towards them, followed by a few other people. The girls stopped and smiled at him and suddenly Elliot and I were walking towards them.
"Who the fuck is that?" Elliot asked as Kate hugged the guy
"I dunno." I said feeling my anger rise as the guy eyed Ana up before pulling her into a hug next.
"How you doing looka." The guy smiled as he hugged Ana.
"I'm doing good." Ana Laughed as she stepped back out of the hug and I was there, Ana looked at me when she felt my hand. "Hey" she smiled lovingly at me as I wrapped my arm around her, pulling up against me as I kissed her on the lips, making it clear to that fucker, she was mine, and damn if I wasn't one lucky son of a bitch to be able to say that. God I can't wait until I can call this goddess of a woman my wife.
"So who's your friends Ana." Mia chimed in as she stepped closer to Ana.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Ana smiled from Mia to the group of people. "guys this is Jose, Gareth, Steven, Lisa and Kylie." Ana named pointing to each in turn, Jose was the guy who had hugged Ana and Kate and he wasn't the only guy eyeing up Ana, Mia and Kate. I saw Elliot pull Kate closer to his side too, "Everyone, This is my fiancee Christian…" The guys looked taken aback by the word Fiancee and the girls looked slightly disappointed, but my heart swelled at the word, "…and this is his sister Mia and brother Elliot, and you all know Kate already." Ana smiled happily, her hand stroking mine that is resting on her stomach. I smiled and nodded hello to the all.
"Where's Theo?" Ana asked looking at me
"Sleeping." I smiled nodding towards where our moms were sitting chatting away happily together. "come on lets go for a swim."

Christian pulled me into the water and pulled us into the deep end before wrapping his arms around me and pulling me to him and I wrapped my legs around his waist and arms around his neck, playing absently with the hair at the nape of his neck.
"God I want you so badly right now." Christian moaned into my ear as I felt him harden even more against my inner thigh.
"Me too." I smiled lovingly and stroked the side of his face as I kissed him on the lips.
"Mmmm. Do you think anyone would notice if we disappeared for a bit." Christian grinned wiggling his eyebrows up and down making me laugh, which made him moan and bury his face in my neck as the movement of my laughter made me rubbed up against him.
"I'm sorry baby." I kissed his neck and unhooked my legs from around his waist.
"Hey where are you going?" Christian said lifting his head to look at me.
"No where, just trying to make it a bit easier for you." I smile lovingly at him
"Not possible when you're only wearing a bikini." Christian smiled, "Do you have any idea how stunning you look right now."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Both our heads snapped up when we heard Theo scream. Grace was standing next to his lounger where he sat continuously signing mommy, daddy over and over.
"Theo." Christian shouted waving his hand in the air to get Theo's attention. As soon as Theo saw us he slid off the lounger and ran to us only stopping when he got to the side of the pool. Christian was there ready to scoop him into his arms, Theo instantly put his hands out for me. I took him and he clung to me tightly, burying his face in my neck, shaking slightly.
"Hey, your ok." I soothed stroking his back, Christian stood close, a hand on my waist and his other hand stroking Theo's hair.
"I'm sorry buddy." Christian said sadly looking at Theo worriedly. I frowned and shook my head at him as I cupped his face.
"It's not your fault Christian. Don't blame yourself." I said looking him in the eyes seriously. "Theo, baby look at me." I said soothingly, I could feel nearly everyone watching us. Everyone curious about the screaming child. Theo didn't move, he just held tighter. "Theo, mommy and daddy love you, we're not going to leave you I promise." I soothed as I stroked his back lovingly. "Your safe, no one is going to hurt you."
"Hey is he ok?"
I turned to see Elliot and Kate walking up to us in the pool. I smile at them and nod as Theo slowly lifts his head to see who had spoken.
"Hey Theo look what I got you to play in the pool with." Mia called as she walked up to the edge of the pool carrying a huge blow up car floatie. Theo's eyes went wide when he saw it making Elliot laugh, but just as Theo was about to get in it Jose and the others came up to us making Theo cling to me again when he saw them.
"Hey who's this?" Jose smiled looking at Theo
"This our son Theo." Christian said proudly stroking Theo on the back as he moved closer to me.
"Who's the mother?" Lisa asked eyeing up Theo.
"Ana." Christian and Mia both said at the same time. Christian frowned at Lisa clearly annoyed by her question, but Lisa didn't seem fazed.
"But you guys have only been going out for a few months, and there's no way you were pregnant before that thing with Jack." Several of them gasped at the sound of Jack's name and Christian pulled me closer.
"Lisa shut up!" Kate snapped clearly annoyed
"What I was only asking a question." Lisa replied acting all innocent.
"Well go ask it somewhere else." Kate snapped rolling her eyes in disgust at Lisa. Lisa looked shocked and annoyed as Kylie started ushering her away. Jose mouthed sorry over his shoulder looking very sorry before following the others.
"What kind of idiots did you invite to this party Mia?" Elliot asked rolling his eyes at Mia.
"Hey how was I suppose to know she'd be like that, she said she was a friend." Mia argued crossing her arms across her chest. "I'm so sorry Ana." She sighed
"It's fine Mia." I smiled reassuringly at her, "Lisa's always been one to run her mouth before thinking."
"Let's just enjoy the party and forget them." Kate said giving a smile to Theo who was now sitting up watching us all. We all nodded I agreement just as the music started playing Kates favorite song.
