Part 21 (2/2)

”Stop worrying about it. I'll run the business. You get barefoot and make the pancakes, you filthy wench.” He slaps my a.s.s as he says it and starts to run because he knows I'll chase after him. We end up on the bed, tangled up together.

”I'll never be your kitchen wench.”

”Please. I won't tell anyone else. It's a fantasy. As my wife you're suppose to fulfill it.”

”You've been hanging out with my cousins too long. They're making you stupid.”

We both laugh. ”You love me anyway. Isn't this what you wanted? I'm part of the family now. Me and dad are besties. He took me hunting last week.”

”Probably hoping you'd shoot yourself in the foot.”

”Yeah, maybe, but it's a step in the right direction.”

”You're awful,” I tease.

”As long as you love me and admit to being my kitchen wench, I'll love you back.”

I smack him playfully and break into a giggle fit.

He takes his lips and presses them over mine. When he pulls away we stare at each other. ”We're having a baby.”

”You're stuck with me forever,” I remind him.

”I'm totally okay with it.”

”Good thing, because I promised my dad if you ever left me he could feed your b.a.l.l.s to the hogs.”

”Yeah, he might of mentioned it a time or two.”

I'm glad Cob has a sense of humor. He needs it to be a part of my life, and I need him for every reason possible. With each day that pa.s.ses I love him a little more. Now we have a baby growing inside of me. Our future is ours to make, and I finally feel complete.

The End of Callie.
