So she had gotten a text from her parents saying that they had arrived, which she hadn’t a clue about. So she had sent them a quick text with the address included and now she was racing, ok not racing back from the doctor but close enough. She sighed and racked her hands through her hair, un be told to anyone she had found out she was pregnant and there was no way she was telling Blake yet. Her parents unexpected arrival put a damper on her plans for today, she was supposed to go shopping for things for the house, Blake had told her she needed to make it her home too, which was proving harder than thought because of many things. She hit the brakes as the light red taking the moment to get her composer before turning down the road and heading to the large house. Upon pulling up the driveway she saw her parents standing outside and gave them a light wave and smile before parking the car and getting out. She hugged them and then let them in the house, directing them to the living room. So how did you ever manage to afford this house dear? They asked as they sat down making themselves at home, do you always have to be so nosy? Its my boyfriend’s house, is he Greek? No mom hes not, well then we cant allow you to marry him or see him. She growled and whipped around, get those old Greek ideas out of your head im not going to follow them, this is the man for me he understands me and if you must know I found out today that I am having HIS child now if you could kindly quite stressing me out that would be wonderful! She spat, which receive a gasp from both her parents as they shook their heads, and see I was going to take you shopping with me mom but I think im going to go by myself so I can clam myself down before… She stopped as she heard the door open and watched as Hank went to greet Blake, excuse me and don’t you say a word about what I just told you. She disappeared from the living room and put a smile on her face as she went to greet Blake. Hey hunny, she spoke quietly stepping near him and giving him a kiss, so we have visitors and before you say anything I didn’t know my parents were coming it was a surprise. She rested her head on his chest for a moment before giving him another kiss, but the bad news is they already don’t like you because you not Greek and they want me to follow old traditions and marry someone Greek which im not going to do, see here I go again getting myself upset and stressed over nothing. She took a couple deep breaths and rubbed her temples, looking up at him. Im going to go pick up a few things for the house and well something else that I don’t want to say too loud, she winked, just get to know them and win them over. She smiled and watched him closely and waited. |

Blake hastily made him way out of the office building when the meeting was over. He had been sitting there listening to people who had no clue what was going on in the world, preaching about how they wanted to make the world a better place- What a gigantic crock of shit! He had sat there for seven hours, sat threw nine presentations, went to the bathroom four times, and walked around the entire building twice. Yeah, he had been terribly bored. He quickly jumped into the Boss after tossing his coat into the passenger seat. Today he had to be in a full suit for the meeting, and he was really not pleased to say the least. He burned out of the parking lot to lighten his mood a bit before he drifted around the corners and into the road before driving home.
He slowly pulled into the driveway and parked next to Lana's car before he got out. He grabbed his coat from the seat before slinging it over his shoulder and loosening his tie a bit as he walked through the front door. He was quickly greeted by Hank and when he stood up from petting him, he was met with a kiss and he immediately smiled. "Hey dear." He wrapped his arms around her when she said that her parents were here and that she had no idea that they had been coming. He looked down at as she gave him another kiss and he returned it and listened when she said that they already didn't like him, wanted her to fallow her Greek traditions but she wasn't going to conform to that. He kissed her as she started to get worked up, trying to cut her off. "Just relax." He reached down and kissed her again before she spoke again. He nodded and then raised an eyebrow, wondering what that could be, and he smiled when she winked, knowing it had to be something he'd like. He slid his hand down and squeezed her butt gently and kissed her again. "Everything will be fine as long as you don't make me misbehave in front of them." A teasing smile spread across his lips and he hugged her, lifting her off the floor a bit and then gently setting her down. He tightened and straightened his tie a bit before he looked down at her and kissed the side of her neck as he walked away.
He walked into the living room when he saw them on the couch. He extended his hand to her father from over the coffee table. "Hello, I'm Blake." They shook hands and Blake nodded as they did so. " Sir, Ma'am" He said with a soft smile before sitting down on the couch in front of them. "It's very nice to be able to meet you. I hope all was well with you're flight? If I had known you were coming, I would have had my jet pick you up. Perhaps I can persuade you to allow my pilot to fly you home when you're ready?" He said, he was truly on his best behavior right now even though his patients was stretched thin today.

She nodded im trying im trying, she spoke and bit her lip, if only he knew how much it was needed for her to relax so she didn’t lose the baby, god would that ever kill her if she did lose the baby. She shook her head and smiled, I wont make you misbehave in front of them. She closed her eyes as he walked by and kissed the side of her neck and followed behind him, her heels clicking as she leaned against the wall watching as he introduced himself, her parents nodding, well its nice to finally meet the man that our daughter talked about only moments ago. She rolled her eyes and her parents once more nodded, our flight was fairly decent and I think we will take you up on that offer Blake, please tell us a little about yourself. Lana smiled and disappeared around the corner slipping into her wool pea coat and grabbing her purse, before heading back into the living room and heading over to Blake, bending down to give him a kiss, I will be back shortly, now I expect everyone to behave. She looked to her parents with a raised eyebrow and they nodded, I will cook something for dinner when I get back and Blake will show you to your room while im gone. With that she headed off and disappeared outside and climbed into her car and drove off, she was being a lot more careful, now knowing what she did know and not wanting to hurt the baby in anyway even though she wasn’t that far along. She found a parking spot and quickly headed inside, for some reason today was just slightly colder than it had been the last few days. She made a beeline for the stores she needed to go to and didn’t spend time in those she didn’t need to go into, the only one she did spend more time in was the pet store where she went to look at the puppies wishing she could have taken the pitbull puppy home. With a sigh she turned away and went to find Hanks treats, the ones that didn’t make him sick, when she found those she paid for them and headed out, glancing over her shoulder before stopping to check that she had gotten everything except for that special something for Blake, she grinned and went into Victoria’s Secret and glanced around before her eye caught something and she knew it was perfect. With a grin she found her size and paid for it and exited. Well this wouldn’t be making him misbehave in front of her parents this would be for later when they went to bed and didn’t know what their daughter was doing. With that she exited the mall and found her car after a few minutes and left, heading home. Which was still a weird concept, upon arriving she was happy to see the house wasn’t a blaze and all seemed peaceful. She grabbed the bags and headed in, im back she spoke. Before going upstairs and putting everything in their room before her mother could go snooping, she kicked her heels off and rubbed her feet briefly and padded back downstairs, sitting down next to Blake and taking his hand and waiting. |

He tried so hard to not get a little grumpy about their first comment. It seemed like he was really going to have to try to win them over, but like Lana had said, they already didn't like him so he was trying to recover a lot of lost ground. He looked to the ground slightly as her mother asked for him to tell them a little about himself, and he was slightly lost for words. How to you explain to someones parents that you grew up in the foster care system because you had no clue who you're mother or father was? Because nobody cared about you, and you were viewed like yesterday's trash.
His eyes quickly bounced between her mother and father before he started to speak. "Well... I grew up in a group home and at eight-teen I joined the Navy. After a couple years of training I was selected to be a Navy Seal. I would tell you more about that but most of it is highly classified. I can tell you that I served for two tours on Seal Team Six before being honorably discharged. It was only recently that I found out whom my father was, and unfortunately I was never able to meet him; he died last year and left me his spot in an oil company. I currently own over fifty percent of said business and I am a classic car dealer on the side." He watched quietly as Lana walked over to him and kissed him. He smiled softly and nodded when she spoke before he focused back on her parents.
"Allow me to show you you're room." He said as he stood up. "Do you need help with any of you're bags?" Gosh was he trying so hard to be a gentleman, but it was worth it; these were the people that Lana needed him to get along with the most and he was damn determined to do just that. "Right this way." After showing them to their room he gave them a few minutes to settle in before returning to the living room, apparently just in time for Lana to arrive home. He felt her sit down next to him and he happily accepted her hand before he reached over and kissed her on the cheek. "Did you find everything you were looking for?" He asked with a soft smile.

Her parents nodded and felt bad for him and that they had judged him so harshly, he truly was a nice guy, well we certainly judged you quite hard no need to help with the bags but don’t think you have won us over quite yet, they followed him to the room and nodded approvingly before getting settled in and sitting upstairs to talk for a bit. Lana smiled, yes I did find everything I would say it was a good shopping day. She felt him kiss her cheek and she giggled before hearing the clearing of a throat and nearly jumping ten feet in the air, she turned to face her parents a blush creeping across her cheeks. Well we decided that we are going to go explore town and get a bit to eat maybe see a movie or something. Lana nodded and watched them leave, she released a big sigh and relaxed even more, leaning back against the couch, I just feel like I have to be so uptight around them and its hard to relax even though im their own flesh and blood. She shook her head and her stomach growled, can we order Chinese? Have a fire and a glass of wine… I mean soda. Shit shit shit she had just made a huge slip up and now he was going to wonder why on earth she would switch her answer. She bit her lip and decided to play it like nothing, I just decided to switch my answer because I don’t feel like drinking she laughed and stood and stretched before heading into the kitchen and finding a menu and writing her order, just chicken chow mien. She brought the menu to him and gave it to him as she leaned down to kiss him, how was your day and your meeting. She asked softly as she tossed a couple pillows in front of the fire place and went back to the kitchen and grabbed two glasses and two cans of soda and placed some ice in the cup and headed back out, setting them down and opened them and poured them and poured them in the cups and took a sip as she sat down and sitting just so, so her underwear or lack of didn’t show. She patted the other pillow asking him to come join her, it would be rear that they would get nights alone with her parents being here. |

He looked down at Lana as she smiled and said that she had found everything she had been looking for and that it was a good shopping day. His eyes quickly shot to her parents when her father had cleared his throat and he felt her nearly jump out of her skin. Blake watched them leave and then looked back to her as she seemed to relax. "They're just looking out for you because they want you to have the best that you possibly can. Be glad you've got people who really care about you." He leaned over and kissed her before nodding. He wasn't really hungry but if she wanted Chinese, they were going to have Chinese. "That's sound good," he said softly and didn't even notice the soda thing, nor did he really care what she wanted to drink. "You can have whatever you want darling."
He returned the kiss when she brought him the menu and asked how everything had went. "My day was almost as bad as the meeting, but it's already better now that I'm home."He set the menu down as she came back with two glasses and soda's. He quickly ordered before she asked him to join her by the fireplace. He walked over to her before kissing her forehead, "Just a second." He moved past her a couple feet to the fireplace and he quickly lit it and got it burning quite nicely. He slid back over to her before he took her hand in his and kissed it. He moved closer to her and sighed in contentment as he wrapped his arms around her, resting his head against her's ever so slightly.

She smiled and looked up at him as he kissed her forehead and nodded watching him light the fire and instantly she became so much warmer, she giggled when he kissed her hand and then finally sat down next to her, wrapping his arms around her. She sighed contently and leaned back against him looking into the fire before looking around the room and then closing her eyes and once more sighing. Blake I have something to tell you, she spoke softly waiting a moment before going on, you mean so much to me and I wouldn’t want it any other way, im so glad Hank ran over to you because without him we may have never met and I just want to sum it all up with a few words and those words are I love you. She wiggled free and kissed him and pulled back looking into his eyes, she just knew that she wouldn’t ever ever lose him and he would be with her forever and more. She gave him a light smile and leaned back slightly, resting her feet in his lap as she took a sip of her soda, I got you something today well both us but mostly you. She grinned and stood, heading upstairs and slipping out of her clothes and putting the little outfit on and then putting her robe over the top of it she put her slippers on and went back downstairs crossing her legs and pulling her robe over to make sure it covered everything, tada! She spoke with a giggle and a grin she shook her head, no your real gift is under the robe but you can look when your good and ready. She hopped he wouldn’t go right for it, she wanted to hear him say that he loved her and not a hormone induced love and she also wanted to get the gift out of the way because she just had this feeling that when she told him he was going to not be in the mood any more. |

She leaned back against him and rested his chin lightly on her shoulder, closing his eyes as she sighed and continuing to keep them closed when she said she had something to tell him. He listened and smiled softly when she said that she loved him. He opened his eyes when she wiggled free, kissed him, and was looking at him. Before he knew it she was telling him that she had bought something from the store and he hadn't even gotten a chance to say that he too loved her, but he assumed this was what she had talked about earlier. Without warning she stood and went upstairs and stayed there for a few minutes.
His attention was grabbed away from the fire when she spoke, his head snapped around rather quickly as she startled him. He listened to her giggle and he smiled when she grinned. He raised an eyebrow when she said the real gift was under the robe and he stared at her for a moment, his head tilted and resting on his shoulder. His eyes had this softness about them that really couldn't be explained and he was completely content to just sit here, looking at her beautiful face as it was lit up by the fire. He reached his hand out, taking hers gently, pulling her into his lap. He didn't even care about this gift right now, and he didn't even touch the robe as she sat down in his lap. He took both of her hands in his and wrapped his arms around her, kind of making her hug herself. He sat there for a minute before he lightly kissed the side of her neck, his eyes closing as he did so. He took a couple moments before he pulled her even closer to him, and there really was little to no room between her back and his chest now, his chin resting on her shoulder once more. "I love you too." His voice was just about a whisper, his eyes still closed.

She watched him closely her eyes never leaving his as he reached out and gently took her into his lap, he took her hands and made her look as though she was hugging herself as he kissed the side of her neck and pulled her closer. She didn’t think it was physically possible for her to get any closer to him, but she wasn’t complaining. She too closed her eyes, focusing on his heartbeat and the cracking of the fire until he finally said those words she had been dying to hear. She smiled, good I feared you didn’t feel the same way and I was going to make a fool of myself, I think though that’s something everyone feels. She smiled and opened her eyes and stared into the fire, this night was just so perfect and she couldn’t help but think she was going to ruin it by telling him the news she had. She sighed contently and closed her eyes again yawning as she did so, she heard the doorbell ring and leaned back against him, looking up at him with pleading eyes, hunny can you get the food im not really in attire to answer the door. She laughed and grinned, going and resting her head on one of the others pillows she had put down as she waited. |

Blake listened to her say that she was glad he felt the same way and that she didn't want to make a fool out of herself. He have her a light squeeze before he closed his eyes again, kissing her shoulder a couple times, at this point he was ready to see what exactly she had bought because honestly, how could he not be curious? He put the urge aside for a minute as he set his chin on her shoulder again and spoke softly. "You will never make a fool out of yourself." He pulled back slightly and kissed her hand again before running kisses completely up her arm and back to the side of her neck, moving the robe a little in places he needed too but otherwise not disturbing it.
Heard the doorbell and laughed at her comment before he shook his head, "Yeah, I will get it and speaking of that, I would like to see it." He laughed before he got up and went to the door. He paid the kid before closing the door, food in hand, and walked back into the living room where he set their orders down on the coffee table. He laid down next to her, really not at all hungry, and he leaned over to kiss her, one of his hands slowly moving the robe. He sat up for a second, just staring at her, a smile widening across his lips. "I am so glad you didn't answer the door." he laughed again softly before laying back down next to her. He would give her the opportunity to eat first.

She grinned, well good, she spoke smiling before closing her eyes as he ran kisses all along her arm and her neck before having to stop to answer the door, she giggled you will see it when you come back I promise its not going anywhere. She adjusted her position so she was more comfortable, waiting for him to come back. He came back quite quickly and set the food down before he was leaning over a kissing her, she smiled when he did and gave a light laugh, yes it is a good thing I didn’t answer the door wouldn’t want other guys eyes wandering whats rightfully not theirs. She sat up and found her order before she began to eat, it felt amazing to eat her stomach no longer feeling like it was eating its self. I was going to say im sorry that your day wasn’t that good but I hope I can make it better. She quickly finished her food and took a drink of her soda before laying back down next to him, she gave him a kiss and straddled him and kicked her slippers off all in the same, she unbuttoned his shirt and undid the belt before untucking his shirt and giving him another kiss…. it didn’t really ever take them long to get down to it but when they were done she always felt amazing, she had gone back upstairs to put some yoga pants on and sports bra and tank top, over the top of that she placed a hooding on and grabbed the little bag that held the jar of sauce, she had come up with the cute idea after doing a google search and the more she thought about the mere fact of telling him the more nervous she got, she had gone to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water, not for her to drink but for her to splash on him in case it got to that point. She went back in the living room and sat down next to him, taking his hand and handing the bag over, open it theres something else I want to tell you and I think this gift will explain it all. She smiled but then bit her lip, trying to hard her nerves the best she could but it was proving hard to do so. She still had a hold of his hand as she waited, trying not to let the nervous eat her alive. |

Blake stayed on the floor as Lana went upstairs. He sighed, content, and then watched as she came back, a bag in her hand and a glass of water in the other. He looked at her questioningly when she took his hand and handed him the bag. He looked at without opening it and listened when she said there was something else she wanted to tell him, and that this would explain it all. He watched her closely as she smiled and bit her lip, still holding onto his hand. He could tell something was really bothering her and that she was incredibly nervous about something. He decided he should probably open the bag before he asked any question.
He quietly and slowly opened the bag with one hand, and he pulled out a jar of sauce. He looked at it and then thought this was some kind of joke. Why had she bought him sauce? Was he suppose to cook something special with this? He then turned it slightly and noticed the paper that was attached that said "we're" and he looked at the label, not even putting two and two together. When it struck home he nearly dropped the jar and set it down, a look of complete shock and uncertainty. His heart was beating at an uncontrollable rate, he his breathing picked up a little, and he just stared at the jar. He swallowed hard before his eyes moved to Lana, a blank look on his face. "We....You?" He was doing ok at this point, but he was a little sick to his stomach. Oh jesus... He had not been expecting this, not one bit. He tried to keep his cool, suddenly realizing this couldn't be easy on her either and that he was definitely not making it any easier. No wonder why she had been freaking out earlier...

She give him a light smile and nodded her head, I had a feeling when I missed two of my birth control and really had a feeling when I started not feeling good I went to the doctor today about everything and found out I was, she spoke softly still not looking at him, she could tell he was trying to be ok about it but deep down she knew he was freaking out and well that wasn’t help her at all. She bit down on her lip and dropped his hand as she reached up to throw her hair into a messy bun before looking at him, her eyes showed excitement and nervousment because she wasn’t for sure how he was really taking all this. She leaned forward and kissed his cheek, please say something your freaking me out. She spoke quietly glancing down to the floor again as she waited nervously for him to say something, im not that far along a couple weeks not even. She spoke as she looked to the fire and then bit down on her lip once more, she took his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze, we can do this Blake it wont be so bad I will help you through everything so you understand, I hope you know my body is going to make changes but it wont hurt me at all. She squeezed his hand again and gave him a smile, just relax she spoke once more still feeling as though any minuet he was just going to pass out cold and she would have to use the glass of water to wake him again. Lana felt something touching the back of her arm which made her jump and turn her head only to find Hank, he whined and nudged her arm and she gave him a scratching before he laid down near them, seeming to enjoy the feel of the fire much like Lana was but now her attention was on whether or not Blake was going run, pass out or even worse tell her he didn’t want to be with her anymore and she was going to have to do it all by herself. |

Blake listened as she spoke, his stomach churning as she did so. He swallowed hard and just tried to breathe, but it wasn't working out so well. He was suppose to be helping her through what happened, not getting her pregnant again. What if something happened? What if she lost this one? Could he really be a father? He hadn't the slightest clue about being a parent: he'd never even had one... He looked over at her and could see both the excitement and nervousness in her eyes, his knew his probably showed his nervousness, but there was no way he could hide that. He was frankly freaking the hell out.
His attention turned back to her as she kissed him and asked him to say something because he was freaking her out, but what could he say? He couldn't possibly say that he wasn't ready for this! This was his first real relationship and here he was, getting the news that he was going to be a father. His heart was pretty much in his throat when she said she wasn't that far along, just a couple of weeks. He took a deep breath as she took his hand and squeezed it. "I'm not trying to freak you out sweetheart... I just don't know what to say. I know nothing about being a parent..."
He glanced over at her when she said that they could do this, that it won't be so bad and she'd help him through everything. He turned to look at her when she said her body was going to change but that it wasn't going to hurt her; that was truly his biggest fear. He didn't ever want to hurt her and she had been through so much already, how could this not hurt her? But then again, she did know what to expect, until a certain point. He heard her say just relax and he wasn't sure how she was staying so calm right now, he certainly wasn't. He squeezed her hand a little before he pulled her down to the floor with him as he laid back, doing surprisingly well. He wrapped his arms around her before kissing her forehead as they laid on the ground by the fire.
As they lay there, he suddenly found himself getting a little excited and his thoughts about it seemed to completely change, along with his mood, and it started to show. He looked over at her before he kissed her rather passionately and then kissing her hand once more. "Lana, I'm going to be right here through everything, I promise."

Lana, nodded of course this was going to be new to him but once the baby was here he would easily pick up on everything, it was an amazing thing to watch how quickly people learned and picked up on new things. She laughed well I will help you get used to it and think of something that you can take care of to get practice, like a kitten or puppy, you defiantly need something though. She giggled when he pulled her down and kissed her, easy lover she spoke lightly and playfully before finally relaxing when she heard those very words, well now I can relax knowing you are going to be here every step of the way, and I have already done some thinking and I am shipping Freak back home were mom will ride him every day, Dancer is staying here with me because she due to her injury doesn’t require a lot of exercise. She smiled, knowing he would like the fact that Freak would be leaving for some time. Maybe when she shipped Freak back she would also have her parents send her an orphan foal, how she missed feeding foals bottles and watching them grow into playful young things, from there they went into training and then the best joy was seeing them go onto the new homes and become show horses or stay with her parents for her to ride and show back home and then breeding horses. She looked to Blake, im sure that eases your mind a whole lot. She grinned but just know he is coming back this isn’t a permanent thing. She spoke making sure he understood, that horse meant quite a bit to her, actually both horses did because she had been through so much with them but she wasn’t going to endanger herself while being pregnant, maybe her mother would get him to calm down in that time that she had him, Blake also meant a lot to her and that is mostly why she had made this decision, She snuggled closer to him and yawned closing her eyes, boy am I ever tired but I also want to put our new bedding on, so I think we should go do that. She smiled and waited. |
