Chapter Seven - Nadia

I barely slept. Josh’s words kept spinning around in my head. He said that he loved me unconditionally. Those were heavy words, a heavy promise.

I looked over at him, sound asleep. He was such a complicated man, but also, he was my closest friend. I felt like I knew his soul. Underneath the constant dating and the rough exterior, Joshua was a good man. He was a sweet man. I knew he would always be there for me.

Or did I…

One of my hands slid down to my belly. There was no bump there yet, but I swear I could feel the baby growing inside. What would this little one be like? Would they be like their father? Would Josh even get to know them, or would he run?

I sighed, trying to put those thoughts out of my mind. Announcing a pregnancy was not the thing to do to someone hungover.

Josh snored slightly, and I looked over at him again. What a crazy night. It took a little bit of liquid courage from drinking for him to finally get over his pride and admit how he felt. I smiled, thinking about how he felt about me. My smile quickly faded when I remembered the life that I was carrying inside of me. Now that I was pregnant, things needed to change between us. It made me view our scattered past in a whole new light.

I knew that there was no way that I was going to be deployed. But, more than that, I didn’t want Joshua to be deployed to Yemen, either. Even though I knew it probably wasn’t the best idea that I’d had, I knew that I needed to develop a plan fast before he was deployed. However, I decided to let Joshua wake up first before doing anything.

As if on cue, Joshua sat up and moaned, holding his head. “I feel like got hit by a bus,” he mumbled. “I have such a bad headache.”

I couldn’t hide my smirk. “Do you want me to run over to the drug store and see if I can get you something for your headache?”

He waved his hand in my direction, dismissively. “No, I’ll be alright,” he said. “I’ll probably just take a shower and hope that that helps.”

I nodded, not taking my eyes off of the man. Even first thing in the morning, with his hair wild all over his head and his dark, brooding eyes barely open, Josh looked incredibly sexy. I had to fight the urge to jump on the bed and rip his clothes off.

He groaned, swaying backward and ungracefully slamming the back of his head against the headboard. “I regret everything that I did and said last night,” he whined, pinching the bridge of his nose with his eyes closed. “Nadia, you made me go crazy last night.”

I frowned as I felt my shoulders tighten. Guilt rose in me that I had had something to do with him going out and drinking the way that he did, so I figured that I would help nurse him through his hangover.
