《Him & I (Queen Shadow #1)》Chapter 41

We decided to tell the both of our parents together so that leads us to where we are now sitting in the loungeroom all of us spread out on the lounge chairs.
"Ok you to what is so exciting that you wanted us here immediately" Jaxon's dad asked teasing us we may have given away our excitement well Jaxon gave us away practically squealing into the phone to come over.
"Yeah Jaxon looks like he is about to burst" Dad chuckled.
"You will find out soon we just have to wait for Lincoln to come I want him here to" I said while smiling pretty much on cue the door swung open and in waltzed Lincoln.
"Ok I came as quick as I could to questions?" he said, "First do I need my camera?" he said I swear him and that stupid camera.
"No Lincoln you don't need the camera there's time for pictures later" I said.
"Ok good because I left it back at the mansion so I could really get it anyway, second question why am I here?" he asked and sat on the spare chair.
"Well me and Jaxon have some pretty exciting news" I trailed off preparing to tell them until Jaxon cut me off.
"There's no way to tell you this is except you are going to be grandparents and an uncle" Jaxon finished off in an instant second we were pulled into hugs mom was holding on to me tightly while sobbing. Next dad hugged both me and mom and as they pulled apart, I notice Mrs Hunters was also crying into Mr Hunters shoulder.
"We are so happy for you both" Mum and dad said.
"We are two congratulations" Mr and Mrs Hunters also congratulated us. I turned to Lincoln waiting for his answer he looked up from his lap and I could see his eyes gloss over which surprised me because he doesn't cry very often.
"I'm so happy I can't believe I'm going to be an uncle" he said as he got up and shook Jaxon's hand and then hugged me.
After talking for a little while they all left, and I went into the kitchen thinking about what we should have for dinner. When it dawned on me that I won't be able to lead the mission that means we are going to have to tell everyone else tomorrow as well I know Jaxon will agree with me. I took a deep breath when I saw Jaxon come in the kitchen, I looked at him and he still had that smile on his face form the moment I told him about our baby it never left his face for a second.

"What are you thinking about baby?" he asked while wrapping his arm around my waist I smiled up at him.
"Nothing much just about the mission I won't be able to go, so we will have to tell them why" I said trailing off.
"I know and we will baby girl we got to keep our little one safe" he said while putting his hand on my stomach over my shirt.
"Yeah one more thing god parent we have to think about that as well" I asked, "Have you thought about it?".
"I haven't really thought about what about you?" he said while moving his thumb to rub my stomach.
"I actually have an idea I want Lincoln to be the godfather as well I know if anything would happen to us he would look after our baby" I said, I knew Lincoln would look after her or him and I know Lincoln would be over the moon as well.
"I agree and now we just have to decide the godmother, but we can think of that later now we have to go tell everyone.
"Now" I asked it was four in the afternoon.
"The sooner the better unless you want to rest then we can go later" Jax said.
"No, I'm fine let's go" I said walking to the car Jaxon trailing behind me. We got in and started the short journey to go spread the happy news.
We arrived at the mansion and walked up to the meeting room but on the way, I had the sudden urge to pee.
"I just have to go to the bathroom I will meet you there" I said to Jaxon.
"Ok baby call me if you need anything and be careful" he said I nodded my head and turned down the hall to the bathroom. I went it an done my business once I was done, I washed my hands and walked out the door only to come face to face with Lisa and Lexi they looked shocked to see me.
"Hello" I said their expressions still remained shocked.
"Uhh..Hi Bella how are you?" Lexi asked trying to muster up a smile but only got halfway there.
"I'm good really good how are you two going?" I said I don't hate them never have hates a very strong word I guess disliked for sure but now that Jaxon's explained everything and they had. A good reason I'm ready to move forward.
"Yeah alright" Lexi said Lisa just stared nervously ahead at the wall.
"That's good I'm glad what about you Lisa?" I asked trying to at least get her talk.

"Yeah I'm alright" she said surprised.
"Look Lisa and Lexi I want to move on if it's possible can we just at least be civil" I asked them both.
"You're not mad at us" Lisa asked finally looking up from her shoes and meeting my eyes.
"Not anymore Jaxon explained everything and now all the secrets are out of the bag everything can finally go back to normal" I said honesty was lacing my voice. Before I know it I'm pulled into a hug by both of them.
"We would really like that" they said while we pulled away from the hug.
I walked to the meeting room where everyone was, I went and stood beside Jaxon and Lincoln.
"Ok Bella, Jaxon was just explaining you can't go on the mission why not, you know what I don't care your going" Grandfather exclaimed he was getting me very angry.
"I'm not going and to be honest iv gone very easily on you and don't forget who I am and what I can do you are not my boss you are no one to me got it and I am pregnant I'm not putting our child at risk understand" I yelled I was angry very angry everyone had shocked expressions apart from Aunty Carol and Bill, Jeremy all of them already knew dad had told them he is very excited to become a granddad. Char and Jay as well as Maya Knew as well.
"I will go instead and lead it" Jaxon said it didn't sit well with me, but I knew there was no changing his mind on this.
"Fine Jaxon will go instead" Lucas said instead.
"But we need Bella not Jaxon" grandfather exclaimed.
"She is pregnant she is not going on the front line where the baby could get hurt" Lucas was now semi yelling it surprised me that he was defending. That shut Grandfather up pretty quickly.
I didn't even notice Ashley's glare until I could practically feel the holes she was burning into my head. She can't do anything to me I still don't like her. Once the meeting was over, I went out of the room with Jaxon ready to head home I saw Lucas and Cindy down the hall.
"Jaxon, I want to talk to them make everything right please" I said.
"Ok" he said I walked away from him and over to them.
"Hey, can I talk to you two for a minute please" I asked they nodded their head.
"I just wanted to thank you for standing up for me" I said while giving them a small smile.
"You don't have to thank us Bella we made a mistake years ago keeping you away from your father we are sorry" Lucas said "Were done with your grandfather he has no reign after this mission we hope that someday you can forgive us" he finished off.
"Lucas I already do I want to move on especially with the baby coming into this world" I said.
"Thank you, Bella and Congratulations, to both you and Jaxon" Cindy said.
"Thank you I have to go Jaxon is waiting for me I will see you later" I said to them both and walked away to Jaxon who was waiting at the car he opened the door and I hoped while thanking him. He also hoped in as well and started pulling out the driveway.
"How did it go baby?" he asked while taking my hand in his.
"Good I just want to make everything right the only people left is Miles and Aron and then I'm ready to start getting ready for our baby" I smiled at him he smiled back.
"You know Jax I don't feel so great about you going on this mission" I said to him he looked at me confused.
"Why is that baby girl?" he asked.
"We are going to have a baby I can't do it without you" I said he pulled over to the side of the road abruptly.
"Look at me princess" he said while turning around in his seat "I'm not going to leave you or our baby too much to do that I will fight for you both" he continued.
"Ok I love you Jax" I said to him.
"I love you both" he said back pulling back onto the road and driving home I slowly felt my eyes drupe and fall into a deep sleep-tired form the advents today.
I woke up to Jaxon lying next to me his head resting on my stomach he must think I'm still asleep he started talking.
"You know I haven't even known about you for a day yet I'm already in love with you we are so excited to meet you" he took a deep breath "Your mummy is worried I'm not going to be here after this mission but for the both of you I will make sure I make it back because for the both of you will fight till I can't anymore I love you both more than anything in the world I love you I will talk to you again later" he finished before he moved his head back up to his pillow and cuddled me into his side I feel back asleep content.
