Not your typical baby mama
165 Meeting the parents
"Victoria, what are you doing here so early in the morning?"
"And who's that?" Amy whispered.
"My father."
"Do you live with your parents?" She gasped. Does that mean they heard the lewd sounds she made when Zach 'punished' her?
"No. They have their own place. But, my father..... sheltered here after my mom performed an exorcism on him", he explained with a laid back attitude.
Amy: "..."
Zach smiled, "She had not seen him for a few years."
And that's normal? What kind of a family is this? What kind of a woman is Zach's mom? If she did that to her own husband, what more her who showed up pregnant for her son? She looked down at her belly.
Zach cupped her cheek, gaining her attention. He gingerly pressed his lips against hers. She felt herself relax with this gesture. He released her and pecked her twice more.
"Don't worry. Everything is going to be okay", he whispered to which she nodded. He gave her one more kiss on the lips before getting out of bed.
Amy felt herself blush when she saw the outline of his monster create a tent in his Calvin Klein boxers. When she looked up, Zach was smirking at her. She threw a pillow at him which he caught with ease.
"It can't be that you came here because you missed me?" Henry jabbed as he slowly walked towards her.
Victoria rolled her eyes and ignored him as she walked towards Zach's room. Edmund had told her something interesting when she called the house earlier. And no, she was not calling to check on her husband. Nope!
She raised a hand to knock on Zach's door when it swung open, revealing the man in a casual outfit that did little to suppress his good looks. He closed the door behind him when Victoria tried to peak through.
"Zach? When did you arrive?" Henry was pleasantly surprised.
"What are you hiding? Or should I say, who are you hiding?" Victoria narrowed her eyes in suspicion.
Henry arched a brow at him. Did he miss something?
"Let's talk downstairs", Zach said. But Victoria made to sneak past him but he held out an arm to stop her. "She will join us shortly."
Victoria gasped in obvious excitement. So Zach really had a woman in his room! She? Henry was shocked.
Edmund had the maids serve them refreshments before they were all dismissed. Zach sat with his legs crossed, one knee over the other, arms crossed against his chest, and eyes closed as he relaxed in the seat.
"Well?" Henry started. Didn't they come down to talk?
"It's obvious he's waiting for the girl", Victoria clicked her tongue in annoyance.
A good ten minutes later, they heard the sound of soft footsteps. The older couple saw a fair hand glazing the stair railing followed by someone in a beautiful long royal blue dress elegantly cascading down the stairs. They subconsciously stood up to see a beautiful woman with big blue eyes and long blonde hair. They were taken by her rare beauty.
Zach moved to meet her at the foot of the stairs and she took the hand he offered. He caressed the top of hers when he felt it shake in his hold. She was nervous. He mouthed the words 'its okay' to which she gave a small nod.
A soft gasp escaped her lips when she saw Henry and she looked to Zach for confirmation. He smiled, he knew she had recognized him to be Hot Head. The two stopped in front of the older couple.
"Amy, I'd like you to meet my mother, Victoria Frost, and my father, Henry Frost. Mom, Dad, this is Amy", he gestured with his hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you both, Mr. and Mrs. Frost", Amy said with politeness.
"You're pregnant?" That was all Victoria noticed as she slowly stood up clearly in disbelief.
Amy subconsciously wrapped her arms around her belly. She exchanged a look with Zach, but he was calm. So she too willed herself to calm down.
"Um-"
Amy was interrupted by Victoria's next question. "What is the relationship between you two?"
"Uh... We're... I'm his-"
"Wife."
"Noooooo!" Victoria launched at him with smacks. "How could you do this to me? What have I done to deserve this cruelty? How could you?"
Amy gave Zach a look. How could he lie to his parents like that? And seeing Victoria's reaction.... this was what she was afraid of. How can she fix this?
Henry sighed when he saw his wife's reaction. He knew why she was acting like that and so did Zach because he held her hands to stop her attack and calmly replied.
"You can still plan our wedding with Amy. I call her my wife because that's what she will be."
"Really?" She stopped and looked at Amy with a hopeful gaze.
"Yes, we're still in a relationship", Amy assured her.
"Oh! Thank God!" She sighed in relief with a clasp of her hands. Then she realized something and went to Amy and held her by the shoulders. "You shouldn't stand for two long. Come. Come. You should sit down."
Amy looked back at Zach while Victoria moved her to the seat. He smiled as he moved to settle on a different seat but close to Amy's. It was so easy winning over his mother. He had practically given her what she always wanted: a daughter-in-law and a grandchild on its way. Victoria sat her down and placed a pillow behind Amy.
"Are you comfortable dear?" She said in a dotting manner to which Amy nodded. "Edmund! Bring a fleece blanket!"
"Right away!" He shouted from where he was. A maid came back with it within a minute. Victoria used it to covered Amy's legs. "Are you warm? Shall we get another one."
"No, I'm fine Mrs. Frost", Amy replied. She was not sure how to act with all the sudden pampering.
"What Mrs. Frost?" She waved a hand of dismissal. "You should call me mom. We're family now. Shall I ask for some tea to warm you up? What would you like to eat? Edmund!"
"Yes, Madam!" He rushed to the living room.
"Get the kitchen to prepare a Moroccan chickpea soup right away", she said then dismissed him. "I must have scared you just now. That soup will help keep your blood pressure down. Now", she sat down and turned to Zach. "What's the story between you two?"
Amy and Zach exchanged a look. They had already agreed on what to say. It would be the truth, minus the dangerous details. Zach was the one who decided to tell the story. Victoria gasped in shock.
"Let me see if I understood this right? You had a one night stand thanks to Parton and you run away, but he started searching for you, you discovered you were pregnant but were too scared to tell him, he finally found you, got together and now here you are!" She looked between the two who nodded in unison. Victoria frowned as she turned to Amy who was right beside her. "But why would you hide from him? Zach is not scary, I can assure you."
A maid came over and gave Amy the soup.
"Thank you", Amy received the bowl or should she say mug with handles on each side. It quickly warmed up her hands.
"Careful dear, it's hot", Victoria reminded when she saw Amy stir the soup.
"Yes, thank you. Actually Mrs.- Mom", she corrected and a pleased smile stretched on Victoria's lips as she listened. "You have such an impressive son, I didn't dare dream of a future with him."
But that changed when she realized she had fallen for him from the night they met. All those times she fought her feelings and his advances, she was deluding herself. Zach had been imprinted in her heart. Zach could guess the unsaid message she conveyed through her gaze directed at him.
"Awwwww", Victoria cooed when she witnessed their little love gaze.
Amy smiled as her cheeks reddened from being caught. She started eating as Victoria bombarded her with more questions. She was the happiest person in the room. Zach exchanged a look with Henry silently exchanging a secret message.
Meanwhile, Xavier stood among a sea of people. Even in the busy crowd, he was able to hear his phone ring. He answered using his Bluetooth headphones.
"They're back in the city already?....uh....mom, I have something on. I'll talk to you later!" He quickly hang up.
He stuffed his phone in his pocket and resumed looking around. He was currently at the arrivals at JFK. His heart hammered against his chest. What if he got the wrong details? Someone patted him on the shoulder and he turned around.
"Looking for someone?" A gray eyed beauty smiled at him.
"Nicole."
