David finding me and caring for me for the last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know they loved David before but I think I just made him even more perfect in their eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jonah called the media company who they had played that video of Chris&#8217;s plea on the television every few hours and told them I had been found. Chris did the same with the police, who apparently reported me missing too. They also wanted to talk to me about what I saw that day because Chelsey was trying to tell them it was consensual and I knew they had slept together a couple of times in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which I knew wasn&#8217;t true. Chris promised me it wasn&#8217;t and I believe him. I honestly don&#8217;t know how I turned out so normal when my parents and sister are so obviously messed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris told the police we would come into the station tomorrow after my scan and they agreed on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The media wanted to speak to us too, apparently they had a lot of interest in the matter.<br>Who knew?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But all too soon Chris started to fall asleep, still with me on his lap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David told me he would head home, but I told him to sleep in the spare room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After everything he had done for me I wanted him to be at the scan with me and Chris. I would tell them both tomorrow. Today I just told him that we both needed him to stay and that the three of us could go to his parents tomorrow after everything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason to have him stay is because I know despite everything he says and how he acts, he&#8217;s actually lonely. He is a great guy. But like most men, he hides his feelings to a certain degree because he doesn&#8217;t want to seem weak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jonah and Mary reluctantly left too but said\u2026 No, told me they would be back tomorrow with Chris&#8217;s sister, brother and his wife. We are going to have a family dinner and show them the picture of the babies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David walked them to the door and locked up, giving me a chance to wake up Chris and get him to bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Chris, baby,&#8221; I gently rock his shoulder standing in front of him.<br>It wasn&#8217;t hard to wake him though, the moment I left his lap he started to stir.<br>&#8220;Come on, let&#8217;s go up to bed.&#8221; He opened his eyes slightly and gave me a relieved smile.<br>&#8220;Anything you want, my love,&#8221; He replied sleepily and stood up from his seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I walked him up the stairs without a problem but was shocked when I entered our bedroom.<br>&#8220;I had the other bed took to the dump,&#8221; He explained noticing my surprise at seeing the large four-poster bed which had taken the place of our old oak framed bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t want the other bed after\u2026&#8221; A couple of tears escaped his eyes, breaking my heart. I wrapped my arms around his waist and he happily returned my hug, resting his head on my shoulder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I remembered you always looked the four-poster ones in the old movies, so I wanted to surprise you.&#8221; He pulled back enough to see my face, but still kept hold of my waist.<br>&#8220;Is it alright? If it isn&#8217;t, I can get a new-&#8220;<br>&#8220;I love it. It&#8217;s perfect.&#8221; I cut him off and kiss his lips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Get changed and get into bed.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again he followed my instructions without argument and stripped down to his boxers. I know he should have a bath and a shave. But he looks so exhausted, it could wait until the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I followed his lead and stripped to my knickers and pulled on a shirt.<br>&#8220;Is it alright if I watch the TV on low while you sleep?&#8221; I asked him already knowing the answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Anything. Just lay with me, please?&#8221; He begged climbing into his side of the bed.<br>&#8220;I will. I am just going to grab a glass of juice.&#8221; He silently nodded and his eyes started to close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was still only early and I honestly wasn&#8217;t really that tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Is he sleeping?&#8221; David asked as I enter the kitchen. I was still only in my shirt and knickers, but it was long enough to cover everything and David and I weren&#8217;t like that. We had a brother-sister relationship, nothing else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cut a long story short, David ended up sat in bed beside me and watching some show while Chris hugged my side and slept.<br>We spoke, joked and laughed and he continued to sleep the whole time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In all honestly, I really love you David, as a friend. You are my best friend, other than Chris. I am glad we spent that month together. It helped me see you in a new light. You are a great guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He smiled proudly and kissed my forehead. &#8220;I love you too, Kim. You are like the little sister I always wanted. I will always take care of you and be there for you when you need me.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I grinned and moved onto my side, resting my head on David&#8217;s chest and giving him a friendly hug. Not that he minded, he was always one to say if he didn&#8217;t want a person touching him. He hugged me back and Chris repositioned himself behind me and his hands found my bump. I glanced back and smiled to see him still sleeping. I awkwardly leaned back and pecked his cute pouty lips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God, how did I ever get so lucky? Chris is not only one of the sweetest men I had ever met, but also the most handsome. I love him so much. I feel so guilty for how I treated him, not giving him a chance to explain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I turned back to David and placed my head back on his chest. He chuckled but said nothing as we went back to watching the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last thing I remember before falling to sleep is David stroking my hair and telling me jokingly that I had to name a baby after him. I laughed quietly. But the day&#8217;s events were catching up on me fast and I soon found my eyes closing and before I knew what was happening, I was asleep and dream of mine and Chris&#8217;s wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_2006\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"2006\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewBox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/mazimai.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 8 Chris&#8217;s parents asked a million and one questions.I told them everything that happened and how I came home to tell Chris about the babies, found him with my so-called sister and left.
