I could tell exactly how much he loved me, and how much he already loved our little blip.
Once the ultrasound technician confirmed that everything was ok, the doctor signed our discharge papers. The MC rented a van for all of us to go back home. After we were all loaded into the van, we began to head toward the U.S. border. I couldn’t wait to get back into the U.S. At least then, I could have some normal food. I don’t know if it was the lack of food that I had eaten or the baby, but I was starving and craving a double cheeseburger.
Our ride home was pretty uneventful, but I was grateful for that. After our ordeal in Mexico, peace and quiet was exactly what I needed. As the van traveled toward the U.S., I watched the road out the window. Reflecting on being held captive, the explosion and the injuries that were sustained put me on edge. Passing the cacti on the road as the American border grew closer was a welcoming sight. I vowed to myself that I would never go back to Mexico, no matter what. From this point forward, I had to protect myself and our little blip. Shadow would have to understand that he had a family now and that he would need to put us first.
I secretly wondered if having a baby might be enough for him to quit the MC. I dreamt of us living in a big house with a fenced backyard. We could have two kids, just as he wanted. He could push one on the nice swing set that we would buy them while I helped the other down the slide. We could have backyard BBQ’s and invite the neighbors or friends. I could join the PTA and Derek could coach football or basketball.
My daydream came to an abrupt end as I realized that we were sitting in line to cross the border to come back into the States. An overwhelming feeling of joy and relief washed over me as I knew that we were homebound. As soon as we got back into the U.S., I planned on running home, taking a long hot shower and getting some McDonald’s or Burger King or anything! Just as long as it was American food, I would be happy.
Speaking of going back home, I’m sure my brother was worried sick about me. I wondered what he would say about me being pregnant, especially with Shadow’s baby. I imagined that he would be shocked, happy and surprised. At least I hoped. My brother and Shadow seemed to get along really well. I knew that my brother would make an excellent uncle. He had always wanted kids of his own but could never find the right girl to settle down with.
As we finally crossed the U.S. border, I breathed in the fresh American air. Shadow looked over at me and smiled, grabbing my hand and squeezing it.
“ We have to swing by headquarters for a bit, ok?”
“ Why? I thought everything was over. I just want to go home.”
“ We have to debrief and figure out our next move. You can lie down in the bunks if you want to.” He said as he kissed my hand.
“ I don’t want to lie down in the bunks. I want to go home and shower. I want clean clothes and some food.”
“ We’ll leave soon. I promise that we won’t stay long. Then you can have all of the food and hot showers you want. Ok babe?”
How could I say no to that handsome smile? I couldn’t tell him no because he was so gorgeous, and he was all bandaged up. He looked pretty pathetic.
“ Ok” I reluctantly agreed. He better be glad that I love him, I thought to myself.
Chapter Ten
Back in the U.S.
The van traveled for another hour or so before we finally reached the MC headquarters. I was about to enter that ugly, deserted building for the second time. The first time was after a big blowout with La Familia. This time it was after a knock-down drag-out fight with the cartel and La Familia. I was beginning to see a pattern. We only seemed to go to the headquarters when something bad happened. I wondered if it would always be like this. While I knew that I would never grow tired of looking at Shadow, I would get tired of having to
