CHAPTER 40- Normal again
JASMINE’S P. O. V.
Finally I got the last of the mud out of my hair. I swear my hair just soaked it up. I have been in this shower for like twenty minutes. I get out and wrap up in a towel. I really don’t want to be away from Hunter any longer than I have to be. I have been apart from him for too long. I crave him.
When I come out of the room I am caught in the wave of him. He is standing in the closet hanging clothes. “What are you doing?” I look over at him. I walk to the closet and grab some clothes.
“I told you I am moving in. I am not going to be away from you if I can help it.” He states it like he is discussing the weather. There is nothing to negotiate about. Not that I want to. I think it is adorable that he is just moving in here. In a way it is like a show of love.
“Who said you could move in?” I smirk at him as I slip on my shirt.
“I did.” He sees that I am dressed now and he lifts me up and carries me to the bed. I am elated that he is having no problem showing me love. He puts me on the bed and then jumps up next to me. I am expecting kisses and other things, but not this. He lifts up my shirt and puts his ear right to my belly.
“What are you doing?”
“Shh, I am trying to hear.” This gets him a little chuckle.
“You can’t hear it yet Hunter. It’s too small.”
He sighs in defeat. “I know but I wanted to try. I could hear your heart at any rate.” He kisses my belly. “I love you already little bug.”
I can’t help but smile. “Hunter, you are going to be a great daddy. If you want to hear the heartbeat then you can come with me to the next doctor appointment. We heard it last time and it was amazing.”
“Who is we?” He eyes me. He is playing.
“Jay and dad.” I smirk at him. “Hunter, are you sure you want this? I know we are young, it’s a lot to take on.”
Hunter climbs up towards my face. He cups it gently. “Baby, I honestly tried to get you pregnant. Did you never notice that I never mentioned any protection? Call it a way of claiming my family. My mate. I only have so much time with you and I want it all. I will enjoy every last minute that I have with you. I am going to make sure that you are the most loved woman on the planet. Hell, when you asked me when I wanted to start having pups I told you I wanted them now. I was being honest.”
I don’t know why hearing that made me want him even more. I curl my arms around him and pull myself closer. I start nibbling on his neck. I hear a satisfied groan escape his lips. “I am starting to enjoy pregnant Jasmine. I just might have to keep you this way.” I can hear the smile in his voice.
“What moody, emotional and vomiting every chance I get, oh and let’s not mention fat? That is how you want me?” I grumbled.
“No, perfectly in love with me.” He smiled at me.
“I have always been in love with you. That was never the problem.” I point out. “However, at this moment I never want you to leave my sight. We have wasted too much time already.” I smile back at him.
He squeezes me, “Well, we have until dinner. As much as I would love to ravage you again, I am exhausted. I didn’t sleep much last night. Can I just hold you and get some sleep?”
“I am here to please.” I wrap my arms around him and snuggle in. I hear a satisfied purr.
As I drift off to sleep I can’t help but think this is exactly how I want to spend my life.
