Hot & Enchanting (De La Cruz Saga) (26 page)

Jacki is muy feliz, feels muy welcome. “Patty, Bella, thank you. La familia has been very welcoming and that makes me muy feliz,” says Jacki blushing.

Ricky pulls her back into his arms. “Mi reina, I welcome you,” he says grinning wickedly.

Jacki turns to look at him, smiling.

“We heard that you’re having a double wedding with Erica and Gabriel. That sounds like fun. If you need any help from us Jacki, just let us know,” says Bella smiling, nodding.

“Si I will, I think Erica and I are getting together to plan out our bodas. If we need help, of course we will ask la familia, thanks.” says Jacki beaming.

“Bella I want to let you know that I feel it’s best that Jacki doesn’t go into work manana.  I think that there will be too much excitement and questions that I don’t want her to suffer through,” says Ricky looking at Bella.

“You’re right primo, I didn’t think about it.  There would likely be a lot of a fuss with the media, associates, and employee’s.  They’ll be curious and excited. Jacki shouldn’t have to put up with that. She
really should stay home,” says Bella nodding in agreement, thinking of the huge commotion that will be taking place manana.

All four start to walk towards the kitchen to get their plates. The familia bebes, the twins, approach them, and pull Jacki away from Ricky. The bebes laugh as they watch their hermano get extremely upset.

“Really hermano, you need to let us talk to our amiga and new hermana.  You just keep her to yourself. You really need to learn how to share,” laugh the bebes. 

Claudia and Vero pull Jacki down the walkway to have a little talk and some privacy. “Ok, spill!” says Vero. “We know you were not dating. So what’s up? How did you catch my playboy hermano?” 

“Yeah, I need to learn the skills so I can catch my
alma
, the one.  Jacki you obviously got it down to a science. Please tell us,” asks Claudia smiling.

Laughing at them, Jacki glances at Ricky. Hmmm, he’s such a hunk, she then turns to her amigas, and now new hermanas. “Chicas, you know how I always thought my baby is hot. You also know that I never dreamed that he’ll ever notice me. I just resigned myself to not having him,” says Jacki smiling.

“Yeah, you and todas las otras mujeres that were always chasing him thought he’s hot,” says Claudia shaking her head.
This is unreal.

“You know that he didn’t know I was alive. You also know that I would never do anything to draw his attention. We accidently ran into each other several times. You can say that we were seeing each other the last few weeks. I didn’t know if he was truly interested,” says Jacki with a huge dreamy smile.

“That’s it?” asks Vero looking over at her hermano Ricky.

“You were there on Friday. Jessy and Jose Enrique invited me to go to the club. When I get there, my baby asks me to dance. Our
alma
and corazon just fused from the first. He asked me to marry him. That’s it,” says Jacki “We just recognize our feelings and seized our amor.”

Jacki looks at Ricky. He gives her a look of need.
Si my baby wants me back at his side.
She smiles at him making a signal with her fingers, just a minute. Jacki turns to las bebe’s, the twins.

“Oh, that’s so romantic. I pray and hope that’s the way I fall in love,” says Claudia with a dreamy look on her
cara
looking up into the sky.

“We’re going to have a small church ceremony.  Sorry I’m not having bride maids, Jessy is going to be my maid of honor,” says Jacki. “Did you see my wedding video and photos?  Ricky made our wedding in Vegas very beautiful and real special.  My wedding gown is just beautiful. I’m going to wear the same gown to the church ceremony. It has been awesome. I love Ricardo with todo my corazon and alma,” says Jacki turning to look over at Ricky, smiling.

“We want to see the wedding rings that everybody has been talking about,” says Claudia pulling her mano to see the rings and Vero leans in to get a look.

“Si I think they are precioso. Ricky and I picked out our wedding rings,” says Jacki. “I’m extremely feliz that Ricky loves me.”

“We’re muy feliz for you amiga and we can see that you’re in love.
We can see tu amor in your eyes,” says Vero with felicidad.

“We’re also muy feliz that our hermano finally noticed you, and fell in love with you amiga.  We think that you’re a wonderful person.  He couldn’t have selected a better esposa,” says Claudia smiling and nodding.

“Yeah, we know that you’re going to be muy feliz together.” says Vero nodding in agreement.

Las bebe’s give Jacki another huge welcoming hug just before Ricky pulls her away and back into his arms. “La familia really needs to understand that my time is limited with you. I want to enjoy all of it with you,” says Ricky. “You’re mia, only mia for eternity.”

Los primos are laughing at Ricky. They have never, ever, seen him so into any mujer or so possessive.  Ricky is truly in love and they all know it.  La familia is muy feliz for him.

Las bebe’s walk away and they went to make sure to welcome Jessy into la familia. “Jessy we want to also welcome you into la familia,” says Claudia hugging Jessy.

“Si we’re muy excited that our best amigas are marrying into la familia,” says Vero nodding, hugging Jessy.

“Thank you, Claudia, Vero,” says Jessy. “It makes me muy feliz to know that I’m welcomed.”

“Claudia, Vero I want to know if you want to help me make a bridal shower for Erica and Jacki. We might as well make everything as a double event,” says Jessy. “I wonder if they will also go on their
luna
de miel together? I wonder if they have thought of that.” 

“Mi amor, I don’t think that Ricky and Gabriel will like that.  I know that they want their esposa only for themselves. Don’t even make that suggestion, I know they will not like it,” says Jose Enrique looking at Jessy. “You two better not either, it’s not funny.”

Las bebe’s are laughing at the grooms. How funny they’re acting. They’re really being possessive.
We never thought that los primos will be this way with their esposa,
thinks Vero laughing.

“Okay, Jessy lets plan the bridal shower. Just let us know when. Okay?” says Claudia. “Make sure to call us.”

“I want to get something to eat, I’m real hungry,” says Vero walking to the kitchen to get some dinner. Veronica sees her fiancé and starts to run towards her Christopher with alegria. “Baby,” pulling him down for
un
hungry beso.

“I want something to eat, see ya,” says Claudia walking after her hermana.

“Mi amor, let’s get something to eat before we get stopped again,” says Jose Enrique taking Jessy’s mano.

“Bella, Paty, Jessy just asked us to help her out with a double bridal shower for Erica and Jacki.  It sounds like such fun!” says Claudia getting her food.

“Yeah, help us make a list of who we’ll invite, okay,” says Vero taking two plates to get Chris’s and her dinner.

“Bella, do you think we should make it a bridal shower of lingerie or house appliances?” asks Paty smiling.

“Oh, I think that the lingerie will be fun. We all know how shy and quite both of them are,” replies Bella smiling wickedly.

“It’s funny how the two quiet and shy ones are the ones getting married first. What’s up with that?  Are we too aggressive?” asks Claudia turning to look at las primas.

“I think that they just found their amor, su
alma
gemela. It happens. I just hope my
alma
will hurry up and come. I don’t want him to take forever to get here,” says Bella looking up at the sky.

“I know what you mean prima, I want someone to hold also,” says Paty looking at the new couples. Each couple appear
s
truly in love and as if they are gazing right into their
alma
.

Christian, Javier, and Tony hear them and start to laugh. This causes their hermanas and primas to gang up on them. They punch them. It still didn’t stop them from laughing at them. 

Christian catches one of his primas and hugs her. “It is okay prima Claudia, I’ll help you. I will bring you mis SEALS for you to select from. You might find one among them that meets all your requirements,” says Chris grinning, releasing her, running to the other side of the tables.

“Chris you’re an ass. I think that you’re the one that needs help. I have lots of amigas that will love you. So get ready at las bodas. There will be nowhere that you can hide,” says Claudia smiling wickedly.

“As long as they are hot, that’s all that matters,” says Tony coming to Christian’s defense.

“I so pray that you or Alex is the next one to fall,” says Paty “I hope that you’re worse than Ricky is with Jacki.”

“Now, primas, hermanas, what did I ever do to you to deserve your ill wishes,” asks Alex walking up to the group. “You should be nice to us. You only have us to hang with at the clubs now that they’re all getting married.”

“You all know that they will be too busy with their amor to bother with us,” says Javier nodding at the couples.

“Javier, have you decided not to re-enlist?” asks Paty “I think that you should go back to school and work for us.”

“No hermana, I really don’t know what I really want,” replies Javier giving her a hug. 

“Alex, do you want to go out with Chris, Tony and me to the clubs.  We saw some hot chicas last weekend. I think you’ll like them too,” asks Javier looking over at Alex.

“You know primo I think I will. Its sounds like fun,” says Alex nodding “Let’s hurry and have our dinner so we can have some fun.” Los primos walk away from las primas and hermanas, excited to get going. 

“Yeah, it figures, that’s all they think about,” says Claudia observing them walk away.

“Well it’s time to go familia,” says Ricky pulling Jacki up and into his side from the dinner table. They went to his padres and tios to say adios. 

I really can’t wait to have my reina all to myself. I don’t know if I can last not seeing her until manana after work.  It’s going to kill me.  It has been too short a time that we have spent together.  We have a lot of things to discuss, plan, and make love. Yeah
, thinks Ricky. He smiles thinking about making love. “Mi reina, I need you,” he whispers into her ear feeling her tremble.

Jacki turns and looks into her baby’s ojos.
Si every minute I feel that I’m falling deeper in love with him.  He’s todo that I ever dreamed my esposo will be,
she thinks, smiling.

Gabriel pulls Erica into his side. They walk over to her padres and tios to say adios. Then they waved to las primas. 

Jessy and Jose Enrique are still talking to Paty, Bella, and las bebe’s.  “I am so feliz for mi hermana,” says Bella looking at Gabriel.

“Yeah prima, Erica is very lucky,” says Claudia. “I want one like him.”

Ricky and Jacki are on
Jacki’s padre’s home. They’re standing in the driveway talking about their plans for the next few days.

They’re leaning against his red hot sporty carro. Ricky is embracing her, his arms wrapped around her small waist.  My reina is muy bella and sweet. 

“Mi reina I love you,” says Ricky pulling her closer to give her a hungry beso.
Si she’s hot and muy passionate. I love tasting every single inch of her sweet mouth.
His manos start wandering to her sweet tight rear end, grasping her, pulling her closer against him.

Jacki pulls away from the beso
. I need to ask him when I should expect him manana.
“Baby, are you going to call me manana? Are you going to come over for dinner at mis padre’s casa?  Do you rather we went out to eat dinner? Do you want to go to your padre’s casa for dinner?  You will be here early from work?” asks Jacki. “I can go into work so we can have lunch together.” 

“Si mi reina, but it’ll be real crazy manana and I really don’t want you going through that. I will call you from the office. I will also be here by five.  We can decide then what we want to do, okay,” says Ricky holding her tightly in his
brazos
. “Mi reina, I can’t wait to have you in my cama every night. I will be able to love you, hold you whenever I want, and I don’t want to let you go.”
