Chapter 23

Brian's View

Tiffany thinks that I ran into Melissa on purpose. Of course I didn't run into her on purpose. It was a total accident. Oh well Tiffany seems to just ignore it. We're back at home now and Tiffany's upstairs taking a nap. She was really tired when we got home. She didn't talk much on our way home. She just went straight to bed right when we got here. Darlene and Nick left soon after that so now I'm alone. Michelle is sleeping too. Nick put her down for a nap about a half an hour ago so I got maybe another hour and a half of free time. What to do?

Nick's view

"So what did this girl look like?" I asked Darlene who was on the bed taking out clothes and stuff out of her shopping bags.

"She was real pretty. Blond hair, blue eyes, tan skin, big boobs. A real bimbo," Darlene said.

"Did Brian seem to like her?"

"Yeah he bought her a coke and was talking with her. He was supposed to buy Tiffany and I lunch but he only bought himself lunch."

"Hmm," I said.

"Hmm what?"

"I dunno. Brian usually doesn't space out on things with Tiffany. This Melissa must have been a real babe," I said.

"Well, I think Brian thought that."

"We have nothing to worry about. I mean Tiffany and Brian are engaged, Tiffany's pregnant with Brian's child, they already have a child together and they are madly in love with each other. I don't think Brian will cheat on Tiffany ever."

"Yeah maybe you're right," she sighed.

"I'm always right," I smiled.

"Sure you are," she said rolling her eyes.

"I am and you know it," I said.

"Yeah yeah yeah," she said. "So would you ever cheat on me?"

"No of course not! I love you and you're having my child. I would never do that. I'm not like that. I know how to treat a lady and so does Brian so that's why none of you should worry."

"OK then," she smiled. I got up and walked over to her. I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her softly. She kissed back and wrapped her arms around my neck. I pulled away and rested my forehead on her forehead.

"I love you and don't you ever forget that," I said.

"I love you too and of course I'm not going to forget you love me," she smiled at me.

"Good," I said. "So what do you wanna do?"

"I want you to tell me what you think about all these things I bought," she said.

"Well...everything is uh...cute," I said looking at all the clothes and toys.

"Yeah I know but you don't seem to like CUTE," she said.

"Well, it's fine if we're having a girl but what if we're having a boy? I don't want cute written all over his room," I said.

"I'm the mother so I get to make the decisions," she said.

"NO! I'm the one paying for all of this stuff so I get to make the decisions," I said.

"No no no no, I'm the one giving birth to our child so I'm in charge."

"Darlene," I whined.

"What?"

"Come on we gotta compromise here," I said.

"Fine," she sighed.

"The clothes and everything are fine but I get to design the room OK?"

"OK OK," she said.

"Good glad we got this figured out," I smiled. She just pushed me playfully.

"I'm gonna get dinner ready. What do you want?"

"Pizza," I said rubbing my stomach.

"PIZZA!? We had that last night," Darlene said giving me a disgusted look.

"What? Pizza is good. Pwease," I said sticking out my bottom lip.

"OK! Pizza it is. Just put your lip back up," she said. I did as she said and smiled. She smiled back and turned around. I sighed at she walked out the door. This whole baby thing is making me real nervous. I just can't see myself as a father. Oh well. Everything will turn out all right. Hopefully.
