Pulling Heart Strings

Chapter 85

Rose's pov.

I woke to the sound of birds and Stephen's light snores. His arms were tightly wrapped around me. I smiled at the sight in front of me and caressed his cheek. He was a masterpiece of art.

I entangled myself from his strong arms and took a little shower. Afterwards I put my underwear on and wrapped my usual gown around my waist.

Since Stephen was still sleeping I decided to get breakfast. I walked into the kitchen and saw Matt already sitting there. "Morning." I smiled at him. "Morning Rose." He giggled.

After making pancakes I joined Matt at the table. "How did you sleep?" He asked. Did I sleep? "Umm ya good. What about you?" I shrugged. He smiled. "Nah not so well I guess." I rose my eyebrow.

"Ya how am I supposed to sleep when you scream so loud?" He smirked. Fuck. A blush creeped up my cheeks. I looked anywhere but in his eyes. This is so fucking embarrassing. "I'm sorry." I said eating my pancake.

"Haha bo problem but maybe next time you should be a little quieter. The whole apartment must have heard you." I got up feeling extremely embarrassed. "Shut up Mathew." He just chuckled.

As I washed my plate I felt those familiar arms wrap around me. "Morning beautiful." Stephen whispered kissing my neck. "Morning." He started sucking on my soft spot making me wet once again.

"Stephen." I moaned. He just continued. "Guys get a bedroom." Matt shouted. I pushed Stephen away and handed him a plate. Soon I heard Matt and Stephen talking something but I couldn't figure out what it was.

"What are you talking about?" I questioned. Matt chuckled. "Nothing honey. Stephen here was just telling how talented you are in bed." My cheeks went all read and I shot them both glares.

I decided to finish some cleaning work and then there is my doctors appointment. After cleaning up my bedroom I walked to the boys who were sitting in the living room watching tv.

I grabbed the tv remote out of Matt's hand switched the tv of. "What the hell?" Stephen screeched. " Guys I have a doctor appointment and it would be great if you could join me." Sarcasm visible in my tone.

"I'm outta here." Matt ran upstairs and I rolled my eyes. Great friend he is. "Now you sir are coming." I crossed my arms over my chest. "Yes ma'am." He laughed. "Good. Now go wear something appropriate."

"Ya I don't have clothes." I rolled my eyes. "Then ask Mathew. You have more of like the same size." He nodded running upstairs. I also changed into my floral dress and waited downstairs for Stephen to come. He sure was taking his time.

"Hurry up."I scoffed. "A second." He shouted back. Then I heard him coming out. He was wearing dark blue jeans which hugged his tuned legs perfectly and and a long sleeve navi shirt with turtleneck.

"Stephen how long do you take?" I groaned. "Babe it takes time to look as good as I do?" I rolled my eyes. "Stop being so full of yourself. Now let's go we're already late." Stephen nodded.

We drove to the same hospital as usual. But I was kinda nervous since this means Dax and Stephen will meet. And I really don't want that since Dax knows what's been going on.

After waiting in a room for what felt like hours we got called. Today for my luck Dax wasn't there and there was a lady doctor as his substitute.

"So Ms. Kingsley. Just take a seat and we can go through the ultrasound." Stupid of me to wear a dress. I pulled my dress over my head leaving me in my underwear and laid on the table.

She started to apply the cool gel on my stomach. It was my 22nd pregnancy week. Not that long. "Is that my daughter?" Stephen asked all excited when the baby's picture popped up on the screen.

The doctor just chuckled."Yes sir it is." Stephen looked down at me with the brightest smile that I've seen on him. He took my hand and kissed it. "She's wonderful." He said. "Sweet couple. You're lucky Ms. Kingsley."

I smiled at Stephen who shot a beautiful smile back. So cute. "Ok I'll just go get the ultrasound pictures. You can whipe the gel." She handed me tissue and went to another room.

I whipped it away and pulled the dress over my head again. As I put on my sandles Stephen pulled me into a hug. "Thank you baby." He said as he rested his head on mine.

"I'm glad I could carry her." I wrapped my arms around his torso. "You're great. I'm soo sorry that I couldn't be with you for the last pregnancy stages." I chuckled. Although it made me sad I smiled. "Hey don't worry. I don't care. I'm just glad you're with us now." I sighed in relief.

"Baby I promise. Whatever happens I'll be here with you. I love you both more than anything." My head shot up. I knew he loved her but me? "You love me?" He looked down at me with those beautiful eyes.

"Of course I do princess. I never stopped loving you." I smiled and stood on my tiptoe to kiss his lips. He kissed back. After a few seconds we pulled away.

"I love you Stephen." I smiled at him. "I love you more baby girl." He smiled back. Also the doctor came back with a little cover and a piece of paper in her hand.

"Here. Make sure to eat a lot. You're a little weak and if you don't eat enough it might give complications at the birth." I nodded. I never was the type to eat lot.

"I'll make her eat." Stephen nodded at the doctor. We walked out of there. And for the rest of the car ride he gave me a lecture on how I'm supposed to eat. I'm glad he cares.
