A gift From Las Vegas Chapter 54 - a special birthday gift
SamanthaEveryone remained silent for seconds, not sure what to do before I decided to take action." I'll go…”I indicated the stairs without needing to explain much." Sure, I'll wait for you here," Theon assured me." Yeah, maybe it's better if someone neutral handles this," Iris endorsed.I nodded and went upstairs, in time to see Delphine approach Theon.She was certainly going to question him about his line from earlier.I walked uncertainly to the door of the room where we had been getting ready and exchanging confidences a few hours before. Poor Lara, I couldn't imagine what awaited her.I heard the doorbell ring, reminding me that the rest of the family would have some work to do to dispose of the ruined party guests. At least I could help here.Once again I felt that discomfort when Henry moved, followed by a slight pain in my groin. I tried to adjust the pants I was wearing comfortably before I knocked on the door, hearing the muffled cry coming from inside the room." Lara

Theon I made my way to the maternity waiting room where everyone was waiting anxiously for some news. Carl and Selena were the first to see me and soon stood up. " Adamos, what happened? " Carl asked. " Henry decided to be a few weeks early, but everything is fine. He is perfect and healthy," I smiled as I remembered my little boy. He was better than I imagined, much better. " What does he look like? Can we see him? " Lara asked anxiously. All the excitement seemed to have served to make her momentarily forget everything that had happened that night. " He's with Sam in postpartum, he'll be there for a while," I explained, "Does anyone know about the…” I fell silent as I saw Callie coming down the hall beside Harper, the two of them talking quietly, while Daphne, who had just started to take her first steps, ran awkwardly in front of them. " Callie put them in the corner there," my mother pointed to Sam's two suitcases. " Thank you. I'll take them up to the bedroom.” I felt

Theon" Are you ready? " I called out to Sam as I made sure that Henry didn't get dirty.I was in the living room, waiting for her to finish getting ready so we could go to the ceremony that awaited us, but she was taking longer than I thought." I'll be down in a minute, Apollo," she shouted in reply, "don't let the pancake get Henry dirty.”I watched my one-and-a-half year old boy lying on top of the dog with an angelic smile on his face. Maybe we should get him out of there before his mother comes downstairs." Henry, come with Daddy," I called, bending down to meet him.He lifted his head, which had been resting on the dog's back, and opened his smile even wider when he saw me gesturing to call him." Papa," he stammered, struggling to get up before running toward me in faltering steps.He was wearing a small tuxedo and his slightly curly hair, like his mother's, was adorably messy; he will steal the spotlight at this wedding. " Mama," he called, looking up the stairs befo
A gift From Las Vegas Chapter one - A positive is not always good news.
Samantha"Sam, are you there?" Charlie knocked on the bathroom door of the apartment we shared.My only wish was to pretend it didn't exist until it became real. I sank a little deeper into the empty tub, seeking some protection from reality."Sam, you know if we're late we're going to have to put up with Elle picking on us!" his tapping became insistent "come on, it's only two apresentacions today.""The door is open," I mumbled, opening the third chocolate bar that would probably turn me into a pig.Well, I would have the size of one sooner or later anyway.Charlie opened the door, wide-eyed to find me lying in the empty bathtub, surrounded by boxes of assorted treats that my payment for last night's show had managed to buy."What the hell is that?"She cautiously approached the tub as I nibbled listlessly on the chocolate bar. My friend bent down, picking up the reason for my despair in the last few hours from the floor.Four pregnancy tests, all positive.“My life is over.” I sni

Samantha"Are you anxious?" Elle asked as she sat next to me in the clinic's waiting room."Of course she's anxious, I don't know how she managed to wait a week for this appointment." Charlie rolled her eyes. “I would have already knocked on every available doctor in Vegas until I found one.”I couldn't help but laugh at her enthusiasm. I was nervous about what awaited me behind the closed door, but I didn't want to show it. I could handle a little anxiety.“Actually, I've spent the last week getting used to the idea” I shrugged “I guess I needed that time."And how is it going?" “Elle was interested.I shifted uncomfortably in the chair, thinking about my answer.“Well, I have to adapt. At first I was lost and not knowing what to do” I admitted it “but now, I know I have to keep going, I just don't know how to tell Theon.”"Haven't you called him yet?" Charlie watched me."I thought it best to wait for the appointment." I shrugged."Miss Hurst, the Doctor is ready for you," the rece
A gift From Las Vegas Chapter 03 - One phone call can change your life
TheonI walked out of my sister's restaurant watching the sun sinking behind the snowy peaks that surrounded Aspen. My family and I settled in the city twelve years ago when we came from Greece at the invitation of my father's aunt, Nia Evangelous, who owned a Hotel and ski resort on the outskirts of Aspen. Since then, my parents had been opening a network of shops there.I managed the snow sports stores, while Callie managed the restaurant with my mom. Lara had returned from Portland a few months ago when she graduated from college, and to our surprise, she had a daughter in her arms.This was a big shock for everyone, especially as we didn't know anything about the child's father. Anyway, we did our best to support her in raising that little girl, we would never leave her alone. I can't even imagine what I would do if I were in the same situation as her.And Evangeline, who was about to graduate, came back regularly to visit, often bringing a few friends along to enjoy all that Aspe
A gift From Las Vegas Chapter 04 - Part of a plan
TheonA series of notifications arrived on my cell phone. Samantha had sent me a few messages. I opened them up, there were some pictures of a blood test on Samantha M. Hurst's name, and an ultrasound. It was already possible to see a human form there, despite being small and misshapen, the little being already had arms, legs and a head.My child.I locked the phone's screen and put it in my pocket before hurrying home. I needed to resolve this at once.I need to talk to Samantha. Maybe I should take advantage of Harper's trip to Denver tomorrow.Harper... What will she think about this story? God, what a mess!I walked into the house and went to the bathroom, a good shower would help me clear my head. As soon as I got out of the shower, I had managed to come up with an acceptable plan, I threw myself on the bed, taking out my cell phone to call my girlfriend."Hi Honey, did you forget something?"“Harper, hi… I got a problem to take care of over the weekend, so I have to travel tomor

SamanthaI heard the front door open before Charlie turned on the light, finding me shrunken on the couch."Sam, you're still awake! " she exclaimed with concern.I took my phone, noting it was after 2:00 in the morning. I lay here waiting for Theon to return the call and I didn't even notice the passage of time."I think I got some sleep," I sat down."What happened? Why are you here?”"I called him ," I explained, feeling my face warm." Oh, I understand," she sat next to me.I've been running away from that connection ever since I found out about the pregnancy. The girls were trying to convince me to call Theon since my appointment last week, but I always lost my nerve at the last moment, and today, reviewing the ultrasound photos, I decided to try.“How did he react? " she held my hand."The way you expected, I think," I shrugged, looked away," first he thought I was joking, then he said he needed some time, and he'd call me later, and he didn't call me anymore."Do you think tha
