“You already asked that.” Marli’s voice vibrated around his penis just as he hit a pothole. Dru exploded into her mouth and Marli sat up quickly, clutching her stomach.
“I think I’m going into labor.” Her voice was strained. Dru glanced over at her in shock.
“What you just say?” He wanted to panic, but he knew he needed to stay calm for the sake of Marli.
“My water just broke. I think my water just broke!” Marli yelled.
Dru stepped on the gas as fast as he could. He was happy it was late and there wasn’t any traffic. Marli was breathing hard and holding her stomach.
“Breathe, baby!” Dru reached over and grabbed her hand.
Marli panted. “Call my sister and Mom!”
Dru pressed the buttons on the phone radio.
“Y’all made it?” Kay’s voice sailed through the speakers.
“My water broke!” Marli shouted.
“We headed to the hospital,” Dru confirmed. Commotion could be heard on the other end of the phone.
“We on the way,” Kay confirmed as the line disconnected.
After what seemed like an eternity, Dru pulled his car into the front entrance of the emergency room. Rushing to the passenger’s side, he helped Marli out of the car.
“Can you walk, bae?”
Marli nodded. The two of them rushed inside the emergency room.
“My fiancée is in labor!” Dru shouted.
Everything from there was a blur. Marli was immediately taken to a delivery room. Kay, Blue, Ms. Loretta, Natalie, Erica, and Nesha arrived shortly after. Dru never left her side, even when she ordered him out. After eight hours of labor, their healthy baby girl, Uno Marie Willis, had arrived. As Dru held her in his arms, he smiled down at Marli. She was perfect. This was perfect. The doors to the hospital room slowly opened, and Deuce and Tres walked in.
“Come meet your sister.” Kay called them over, and the boys ran to her. Dru lowered her so they could see.
“Hi, Uno,” Tres whispered. His voice filled with excitement.
“Happy birthday, Uno!” Deuce touched her small hand. As Dru stared down at his family, he was so happy. Tears of joy rolled down his face. He couldn’t believe that after all the games and all the drama, he was a father of three. Leaning down, he kissed Marli’s forehead, and then he turned to his daughter.
“Welcome to our family, Uno. We are so glad you’re here.”
Dru stared at Deuce, Tres, Uno, and Marli. They were a family now, and they were ready to face anything that came their way.
“You want to get married today?” Dru questioned. Marli looked up at Dru. A smile as big as day came across her face.
“You serious?”
“Yes!”
Marli nodded her head as Dru brought his lips to hers.
“Let’s do it! No more playing around with soul ties.”
The END!
Afterword
Book number five! I’ve been wanting to write a story about Marli since I first came up with her character when I was twelve years old. I hope I did her justice. Dru and Marli surely gave me a headache with all their back-and-forth games. With each book comes a new challenge, and boy this book challenged me. I hope you enjoyed reading it. Oh, and did you catch the update on Kay and Blue? Please continue to look out for my books. As usual, if you’ve made it this far, we go together now. If you enjoyed this book, do me a favor and please leave me a five-star review. To keep up with me and look out for my future work:
