Chapter 1121 - Happy birthday, Jeff (5)

Seeing that Jeff though how onesies are for him, JoAnna internally facepalmed. But externally, she lifted an eyebrow while patiently waiting for him to realize the significance of her gift. Seeing that he is not getting it, even after reading 'daddy's girl' on the pink onesie and 'daddy's boy' on the blue one, JoAnna wondered if a card with 'I'm pregnant with twins' was a better choice.

There was a sound of a glass shattering. Elanor bolted up from her seat and toppled glassware which was close to her on the table.

Jeff looked at Elanor who was staring at him with a big grin on her face, and then he saw Stella covering her mouth while her eyes flooded with tears and Oscar and Edward didn't look normal either. His eyes darted over people and he realized that he is missing something, but he is not sure what.

Actually, he was suspecting that his wife is telling him that they are pregnant, but he didn't dare say that aloud. What if he is wrong? It would not be the first time he jumped into conclusions only to be thoroughly disappointed. So, he locked his eyes with JoAnna and waited for her to say it, without any ambiguity.

JoAnna smiled at her adorable openly-insecure husband and nudged him with her elbow. "I'm pregnant…"

Jeff's eyes widened. "Really?"

JoAnna nodded, but she can see that Jeff is still not getting the significance of two onesies.

He glanced at the onesies which were still on his chest and observed them. "What does this mean? I get to pick which one I want?"

JoAnna stifled a laugh. "You know that I don't like to choose. I always wanted both."

"Two babies?", Jeff breathed heavily.

JoAnna didn't finish her nod when Jeff scooped her in his arms and dashed away while ignoring words from other guests.

Jeff didn't care if they are cursing or congratulating. He wanted to be with his wife, just the two of them. There are things they need to clarify, damnit!

Jeff carried JoAnna to the lower level into the master bedroom.

"You are not messing with me, are you?", Jeff asked JoAnna when he closed the door behind him.

"No.", she smiled.

Jeff reached for the V-neck opening of her dress and in one swift move, tore it open at the front.

JoAnna gasped and looked down at the expensive gown which became rags in a second. "That was my good dress…"

Luckily, she has spare clothes in the closet.

Jeff pushed the torn fabric on the side and made JoAnna sit at the edge of the bed. He kneeled between her legs and stared at her belly like he can see inside. He regretted not putting his Eve-vision lenses on (even though they don't have the ultrasound feature).

"Aren't you going to say something?", she asked after some time.

"Are you absolutely confident that we are pregnant?"

JoAnna thought how he is adorable. "One hundred percent."

Jeff looked up and met her warm blue eyes which smiled at him. "Twins?"

"Mhm…", she confirmed.

"A boy and a girl?"

"Mhm…", she confirmed again.

"How long?"

"About two months."

Jeff hugged her around the waist and placed his cheek on her flat belly. He sighed and murmured: "If I knew, I would not let you go to Marcus' party… or allow you to stand so long at the White Mansion… or make you bend on my office desk yesterday and not stop until you came the third time…"

She stifled a laugh and ran her fingers through his ink black hair.

"It's OK. I am a doctor.", JoAnna finally said.

Jeff didn't look up at her, but he knew that she is smiling.

When he raised his head to face JoAnna, he was grinning like a fool to the point of his cheeks aching.

"Happy birthday, my love.", JoAnna said softly.

"This is the best birthday present EVER!", Jeff exclaimed.

After a second, his expression became serious. "Are you sure they are not hurt when I get inside you?"

"I'm confident.", she confirmed.

"I am quite large and vigorous…", he cheekily said.

"I know.", she inflated his ego.

Jeff swiftly removed her bra and pushed her down on the bed.

He was pulling her panties down when she asked in panic: "What are you doing? We have guests…"

"It's my party, I can do what I want… and right now, I want to hug my wife and my babies… naked…"

It took him few seconds to remove his clothes and get under the covers with JoAnna.

He cradled her in his arms and kissed her gently. Every kiss told her how much he loves her, and how happy he is.

JoAnna felt his erection, but whenever she reached for it, he would move away.

"I want to hold you like this.", he responded to her sound of displeasure.

"But I think that you also want something else…", JoAnna looked at him suggestively.

"I always want that. If I listen to the guy below, we will spend our life in the bed."

JoAnna smiled and pressed herself against him. "I don't mind spending my life in the bed with you."

Jeff closed his eyes and took a deep breath when he felt JoAnna grinding on him.

"What happened with 'we have guests upstairs' ?", he asked with difficulty.

"It's your party, you can do what you want…" JoAnna pulled him in for a searing kiss.

Jeff squeezed her buttocks, making her moan.

"Please… continue…", she whispered and caressed his firm muscles impatiently.

Jeff felt that his resolve for cuddling-only crumbled.

The two of them focused on each other, not caring about anyone else.

…

Upstairs, people were excited about the news: JoAnna is expecting twins!

Few of them (aka Elanor and Stella), felt emptiness because they wanted to hug and squeeze future parents, but were left empty handed.

White grandparents were excited by the news. They will be grand-grandparents!

"When Jeffrey White returns, I will scold him!", Elanor fumed. She used his full name, that means she is upset! "How dares he take Anna away at a moment like this?"

Stella wanted to go downstairs and talk to them, but she thought that they are probably delayed with a reason which includes a need for privacy. And she needs to be patient and wait for them to return to the deck.

…

Aiden pulled Sarah to sit on the sofa in the corner and looked into her eyes for some time before asking: "When are we going to have kids?"

It is a question which lingered for a long time in the back of his throat. He knows that they are young, and they still have plenty of time, but he will not deny that he is impatient and Sarah giving him a proper answer will be a confirmation of her commitment. 

"When it's safe.", Sarah responded.

"Explain.", he demanded.

Sarah looked into his deep dark eyes and she can see that he is expecting an answer, but she is not sure if he will like the meaning behind the vaguely defined word 'safe' . Thinking about what her mother told her last time about Lebedev family, Sarah knows that they will need to redefine what their goals are.

"Let me ask you something…", Sarah decided to steer the topic away slightly. "Do you want to know when I stop taking pills, or do you want me to surprise you how Anna did with Jeff?"

Aiden frowned while thinking. "I'm not sure. I would like to know but I would like that you surprise me as well…"

"Think about it and let me know. But in any case, it will NOT happen before we get married.", Sarah gave him a knowing look.

"Alright.", he let her have this one. "But when we get married, you will answer my question. OK?"

Sarah smiled and leaned into his embrace. "OK."
