Raging Love(85)

It was quite comical until everyone was standing there with yarn that appeared to be over five feet long. I looked down at my big belly and rubbed it. Was I really that gigantic? Good God!

Colt came up behind me and shoved his yarn in his pocket. One by one the yarn was measured against my real body. I was so relieved when most of them were way bigger than I was. The people who were close lined up against the wall and waited to see who was the absolute closest. When everyone was finished, Colt pulled out his strand and reached it around my tummy. His strand was off by only one inch. Nobody else was that close, I was sure of it.

The room filled with laughter. “You cheater! Colt! You weren’t allowed to play.” Aunt Karen came up and grabbed the string out of his hand.

Everyone continued to laugh.

“So what do I win?”

She rolled her eyes and handed him a wrapped package. He opened it to reveal a small bottle of scented lotion. Colt got a huge grin on his face. He looked up at everyone in the room. “I bet this will make my ass smooth like a baby.”

Even I began to laugh, but when I did something happened. I felt something warm and feared that I had just peed myself in front of our entire family. I closed my legs as tight as they could go, but continued to feel the gushing of warm liquid.

Colt stopped laughing and looked at my face. I slowly opened my legs to reveal the wet spot all over his sweat pants. “I think my water just broke,” I whispered.

Colt stood up. “OH MY GOD HER WATER JUST BROKE!”





Chapter 27

Colt

The room filled with chaos as Savanna stood there in total shock. In the midst of all of our family, she was going into labor. Her mother and Miranda came rushing over to her side. I wouldn’t say she was freaking out, but she definitely wasn’t able to focus on anything.

She hadn’t been complaining of having any labor pains, yet as soon as we got her standing and suggested she get cleaned up, she hunched over and grabbed the underside of her belly. We guided her back to the couch.

“Colt you need to head to the house to get her overnight bag. I will call the doctor and get her cleaned up. Grab her a clean pair of pants so that her legs don’t get too cold going out in the cold air.” My mother took charge of things, giving me orders on what I needed to do, but I just stood there.

Ty was standing over in the corner with Conner, but had walked over and grabbed me by the arm, pulling me out of the house. “Get in the game, Dude. You might have a baby by the end of the night.”

I don’t know whether it was his pep talk or the cold air hitting me in the face, but we both hopped into the truck and headed back to my place to get the bag that Savanna had gotten together for her hospital stay. Ty came into the house and waited for me at the door. I ran back down the stairs with her bag in my hand. “Did you get her clean pants?”

“Shit!” I ran back up the stairs to our bedroom.

As I came back down the stairs, I heard Ty laughing at me. “Dude, you have got to calm down. It is your responsibility to get her through this and remain calm. Right now you seem like you need to be bitch slapped.”

I gave a little chuckle. “Sorry, I’m so nervous. I don’t think I have ever been so scared.”

“Dude, if I can get through it, you can. Just remember if it gets too scary stare at her thigh instead of her pussy. Don’t take any mental pictures. It will haunt you forever.”

We climbed back into the truck. “You give the worst damn advice.”

“It’s the truth. Seriously, you will be fine as long as you keep her calm. She can’t see you freaking out. You have to be her rock.”

Speaking of bitch slapping…..

“You sound like one of those fuckin’ books Savanna keeps in our bedroom.”

Ty responded immediately, “I watched my daughter being born and read the books when I’m on the shitter. Miranda knows it’s the only time I will consider picking up a book. She got rid of all my Sports Illustrated and replaced them with baby mags.”

Miranda is one smart girl.

We pulled back up at the main house to a crowd full of people. Ty ran the pants inside and when I finally got inside Savanna was already in the bathroom changing. When she came out she was walking slow, like she was in pain. I rushed to her side. “Darlin’, what can I do?”

“The doctor said that since my water broke and I’m having contractions we need to get to the hospital. Lucy is going to keep the kids.”

I was a little confused. “What do you mean Lucy is going to keep the kids? Where is everyone else goin’?” There was a whole house full of people to keep the kids.

“I want our families to be there and I already asked Miranda to be in the room with me. Her and Ty are the God parents and I think they should be there.” She still wasn’t making very much sense.
