JoJo stood in the living room of her new house and looked around. The last of the furniture had been delivered and set up. Scanning the room she shook her head at the massive big screen TV and entertainment center that took up most of one wall. It was one of the very few things that Curse had actually insisted on along with the pool table and rec room things. Jo didn't mind, it was better to watch movies on like an actual theater. She sighed and figured the further she got along in the pregnancy the more she was going to be spending time around the house.
Having had to buy practically everything for the house the move wasn't too bad. The stores delivered all the furniture and set it up for them, except for the baby's room. They had decided they wanted to do that themselves when it got closer to Jo's due date. Mostly what was left was putting away and setting up things like the kitchen appliances and dishes. Linens, bathroom accessories and the like. Then the few boxes and bags of their personal items.
Everything had happened so fast, pretty much like everything in the lives of Curse and Jo Jordan since they had met. There was a whirlwind of shopping to fill the house. Pretty much Jo wandered around the store pointing at things and saying I want that and that and that. Then the stores shipped everything to them. It was a very surreal experience for Jo. The final shopping trip was to the grocery store so they were fully stocked there as well.
Jo wandered into the kitchen, not sure where Curse had gone off to. Last she had seen he was helping the movers and had gone outside to help them put things away before they left. Jo stood with her hands on her hips trying to decide what to do first. Surveying the boxes full of things like a toasters, food processors, blenders, dishes, silverware, and all nature of kitchen gadgets.
Finally she decided she needed something to drink before she started putting things away. Walking over to the refrigerator she opened the door and pulled out a jug of orange juice and set it on the counter. Then she found a box of dishes, digging through it to find a glass. She rinsed the glass out and dried it off with a paper towel before filling it up with juice. Leaning back against the counter she took a long drink. Wondering where she was going to put everything.

Standing on the front lawn looking out over their new property, Curse couldn't help the silly grin that spread over his face. If someone had told him a year ago he'd be settling down with a wife and a kid on the way, he'd have laughed himself silly. Now, however, he found himself strangely contented to be doing just that.
The fact that they had settled in New Orleans was strange but he was glad that he didn't have to go back home and face all the memories that the ranch would have had. This was a chance to make a fresh start and build something without all the baggage that went along with history.
Taking a deep breath, the handsome hunter moved to where his black Dodge pickup sat and opened the drivers side door. Stepping up into the monster, he opened the glove compartment and pulled out a sheaf of papers that he'd been hiding from his wife. Running a quick glance over them, he sent a glance towards the house and then made a decision.
Climbing from the huge truck, he hit the locks and headed up the huge front walk. Letting himself into their new home, Curse checked first the living room and then headed towards the kitchen.
"Jo?? Darlin? Where you at? I have a suprise for you...." he called out as he moved around the house.

JoJo drank about half the glass of orange juice and then set it down on the counter. She didn't want to drink too much at once. The morning sickness had eased up somewhat, especially since she had discovered eating saltine crackers before she even got out of bed in the morning, but it was still lurking so she tried to be careful. She had lost more than ten pounds over the first couple months. That had been a bit of a shock when she went to the doctor the last time. Jo was almost three month along now and the doctor had said that during the second trimester the morning sickness should really start to go away.
Moving around the kitchen she opened a box of brand new dishes and started putting them away in the cupboards. She heard the door open and shut and then her husband's voice rang out through the house. "I'm in the kitchen." Jo answered back loud enough for him to hear her. She kept putting away the dishes as she waited for him to make his way to find her. When she heard his footsteps approaching she turned her head and smiled brightly at him. "You have a surprise for me? Are you sure we can handle anymore surprises? Seems we've had our share since we've met." Jo put the last dish from the box up on the shelf and closed the cabinet door. She moved over to the counter again and picked up her glass of juice. Sipping at it as she watched Curse come into the room and waited for him to tell her what was going on.

Smirking a bit, Curse entered the kitchen and gave his wife a kiss and he wrapped an arm about her waist. His expression took on an amused look.
"Well... there are suprises and then there are suprises. This one though... I think you just might like."
Plopping the envelope he had been carrying on the counter next to her, the handsome hunter headed for the fridge and opened it. Reaching inside, he picked up a beer and then drew back to close the door. Watching his wife from the corner of his eye, he popped the top and took a long swig of the cold liquid.
"So... What do you think of the name Silver Bullet?"

JoJo put her glass back down on the counter as Curse moved toward her and greeted her with a kiss. She leaned against him as he put his arm around her. Looking curiously as he put an envelope of papers down on the counter. "Well... there are suprises and then there are suprises. This one though... I think you just might like." Lifting an eyebrow and looking at him sideways she picked up the papers and pulled them from the package. Shuffling through them she skimmed over them. Blinking her eyes a few times in surprise. Carefully and deliberately she folded the papers up and put them back in the envelope before she turned to face her husband. "You bought a bar?" Jo tried to keep her tone even and her face serious as she looked at him. It didn't last long though. She couldn't help the grin that slowly spread across her face. Wrapping her arms around his neck she stretched up on her toes and kissed him again. "So... What do you think of the name Silver Bullet?" Her eyes danced with happiness and the smile didn't leave her face. They had only talked about this once before so she had no idea he had been looking for a place to buy. She looked around her, a new house, a new bar, a new husband and a new baby on the way. Suddenly everything kind of hit her full force. "I...I... I love it. I think it sounds great. But, I think I need to sit down for a minute." The excitement had overwhelmed her a bit and she started to feel a little light headed. She turned to walk over to the kitchen table. She just needed a few minutes to catch her breath and let herself rest for a bit.

Watching his wife closely, Curse could see the flickering emotions running across her features. However, when she started to pale just a bit, he grew alarmed.
"I...I... I love it. I think it sounds great. But, I think I need to sit down for a minute."
As she started to walk towards their new dining room table, the hunter scooped her up in his arms and carried her instead into the living room where he deposited her on their new comfortable couch and knelt down beside it in concern.
"Easy, Darlin........ Maybe this was a bad thing to spring on you. I was just anxious to show you and see what you thought...."
Frowning a bit, Curse reached out and caressed her cheek. His expression was concerned as he took in her look and worry settled on his brow.
"Maybe you've been doing to much.... I was afraid of that with all this excitement. I think you need to see a doctor before much longer. Have you made an appointment with Lexi's?"

JoJo suddenly found herself swept off her feet and was carried off into the living room. Rolling her eyes she put her arms around his shoulders to hold on. "Hey, what are you doing? I'm fine really." Sighing as he moved and set her down on the couch. She propped herself up into a reclining position and turned her head to look at him. She knew he had been worried about her. "It was a great thing to surprise me with. I'm happy and excited. It's just all this stuff suddenly kind of hit me. You know? I have more now than I ever thought of, hoped for or dreamed of. It's just going to take me a little getting used to." Jo smiled as he touched her cheek. She could see the concern on his face. She found his other hand and took it up in hers. Bringing it to her lips she kissed it. She sighed when he talked about her doing to much and gave him a slight pout. "I don't think I'm doing to much. I can't just sit around doing nothing. The morning sickness has eased some but it is still hard to keep solid food down if I'm not careful."
"No, I haven't been to the doctor since that last appointment right before we left Oklahoma. But, I have an appointment with Lexi's doctor. The day after tomorrow as a matter of fact. Are you going to come with me? You don't have to you know. Maybe it will ease your mind though." Letting herself sink back into the cushions of the couch. So much had happened so fast. But all that had happened had turned out to be good. She truly couldn't be happier. Knowing that Curse loved her and cared about her so much.
She just wished this morning sickness didn't have her feeling so weak. It was frustrating. It didn't help that she had been thinking about her mom. It had been so long since she had even talked to her. She rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

At the mention of the doctors appointment, Curse took on a hunted look. The palms of his hands grew damp and it was all he could do not to freak out.
"Um... doctors appointment? What exactly is it going to entail?" he asked worriedly. "Im not especially good with doctors... They make me a bit.. nervous, Darlin."
Although he knew most doctors were sane, there had been that case a few months back with the insane doctor who had believe he could make himself immortal by collecting organs from living people. That had given him a healthy dose of unease about anyone weilding knives. However, it wasn't like he was going to tell his pregnant wife about that hunt so he manly tried to hide his nervousness.
"However, if you'd like me to go.. I will. If Lexi recomended him, he must be good.. or her... whichever the case may be..."
Rubbing his forehead a bit, Curse wondered if he was getting one of those pregnancy headaches that seemed to strick men who were married to expectant mothers. He certainly felt as if he was.

JoJo sat up straight on the couch and looked at her husband in amazement as he stumbled and hesitated when talking about the doctor's appointment. It took her some doing to stifle a giggle. She shook her head as she started to respond. "You're nervous about going to a doctor's appointment? It's not even YOU that is going to be examined." Looking at him, she couldn't quite believe it. She had thought it was a little odd in the beginning when Curse had issues when she had morning sickness. But, she didn't really think too much about it. Now though, she couldn't help but grin at him. "You, Mister Macho ex-Navy Seal, first you can't deal with a little throwing up and now a simple doctor's visit?" She wasn't sure what to think about it. Everyone had their fears. It just seemed funny that this man that seemed to never be afraid of anything, that had done so much in his life, would have these little things that scared him. "You know, babies are kind of messy. I think you're going to have to get used to that. Throwing up, dirty diapers, crying all night when they're sick, doctor's appointments, immunization shots, all kinds of things we are going to have to deal with." "You're going to be a father. We're going to be parents. It's OUR responsibility to take care of this baby that's coming. I don't mind having a nanny around for help sometimes, but I'll be damned if someone else is going to raise my children and I'm going to need your help with that." Jo smiled at him and ran her hand through his hair. Taking a deep breath and letting out a bit of a sigh. She leaned down and kissed him quickly on the cheek. "As far as the appointment, it's just an exam. You don't have to come. But, you would get to hear the baby's heartbeat you know." Jo didn't mean or want to freak him out with all that. The reality was that they were going to have a baby and he needed to be ready for that. A prenatal doctor's appointment should be a piece of cake.

Curse could hear the disbelief in his wifes voice and her tone rang with amusement but damn it.. a man had his limits. The thought of watching the doctor poke his wife with needles and cause her pain about made him want to break the poor dudes neck and that certainly wouldn't be good for patient/doctor relations.
Besides that, Curse hated the cooped up, closterphobic feeling he got whenever he had to sit in one of those tiny exam rooms. He always felt as if the walls where closing in on him and he had a hard time sitting still. He'd been in to many of those closed spaces after a special ops mission. He still could remember the one doctor who'd stitched him after a particularly bad saber wound in his thigh.
Shuddering a bit at the remembered pain even though he knew he'd never even winced, the hunter abruptly came back to the current.
"You know, babies are kind of messy. I think you're going to have to get used to that. Throwing up, dirty diapers, crying all night when they're sick, doctor's appointments, immunization shots, all kinds of things we are going to have to deal with."
"You're going to be a father. We're going to be parents. It's OUR responsibility to take care of this baby that's coming. I don't mind having a nanny around for help sometimes, but I'll be damned if someone else is going to raise my children and I'm going to need your help with that."
Casting a look at his wife, Curse sighed. Moving to her, he pulled her close and was silent for a moment.
"Hell... I know that, Darlin. Its just that... If some asshole doctor sticks you with a needle and you yelp, I may kill the son of a bitch. You know I don't like to see you hurt and the thought of some idiot seeing parts of you that he's got no business seeing.... Well, I'm finding I'm not at all reasonable when it comes to you."
It really didn't help knowing he was being unreasonable but Curse couldn't help the stupidity that was falling from his mouth. He and his band had once actually delivered a baby for an Iranian woman in the middle of a field misson and it wasn't a fun experience. In an attempt to save her life, the men had built a shelter for her and taken the baby from her body as war raged around them. However, soon, they were left with a squalling infant and no mother to feed her when the woman bleed to death shortly after the birth because they couldn't get her a medical evacuation. That memory still had the ability to terrified the hardened warrior as he realized his wife would soon be going through the same thing. That was the ONLY reason he was pushing her to see the doctor. It was a neccessary evil.
"As far as the appointment, it's just an exam. You don't have to come. But, you would get to hear the baby's heartbeat you know."
Brought back to earth, Curse's eyebrow shot up.
"Heartbeat? THey'll be about to hear it this early?" he asked, amazed. "I'll go, Darlin.... you just may have to hold my hand. I wouldn't want to crack any heads at inappropriate times..."
