Okay, so this is the first in a bunch of one-shots I'm planning to do for songs on my 'Kick' playlist. If y'al want, you can recommend songs from your own Kick playlist for me to do. *smiles* I'm going to be experimenting with different types of writing throughout this, just a warning. The next chapter will have no words at all. :D Please review! And favorite, and follow! I want to share this with you guys so much-I just love you. *eyes crinkles as she grins* I've taken up enough of your time. Go read, my children!
Love,
Lil
Disclaimer: I don't own Kickin' It or God Gave Me You by Blake Shelton, unfortunately.
I've been a walking heartache.
I've made a mess of me.
The person that I've been lately.
Ain't who I wanna be.
"JACK!"
"Kim, you CAN'T stop me! I'm gonna take that cash, and you can't stop me!"
"Jack, think of me! Think of the house, think of-"
"Think of WHO, Kim? Aeron is dead! He's gone, Kim! And maybe this money can take me OUT OF THIS FUCKING MISERY!"
*crash*
"JACK!"
…
"Oh god, Jack. You have to stop passing out on me, this alcohol, this yelling, this EVERYTHING…come back to me, Jack! I need you."
But you stay here right beside me.
And watch as the storm blows through.-
And I need you.
"Kim is that you?"
"Morning, Jackson."
"Oh god. Goddamit, I DID it again, didn't I. Shit Kim I'm so sorry, why are you still with me? How can you take this all? All the drunken nights and the broken plates and the yelling and the shouting-"
"Jack, I still love you! You have to let me help you with this, break out of this addiction-Jack, the alcohol is taking my husband away from me! I need him. I need you."
Cause God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
And for when I think I lost my way.
There are no words here left to say, its true.
God gave me you.
Three months ago
"Mommy! Mommy is Daddy gonna be home soon?"
"Yes, love. Daddy will be home soon and then we can all watch your favorite movie, hows that?"
"Yay! I love you Mommy!"
"I love you too, Aer-bear."
*scoops him up in a hug*
*door creaks open*
"Where is my beautiful wife and my lovely son?"
"Daddy!"
"Jack!"
"You were working a little bit later than usual today, honey. Is anything wrong?"
"Just trying to get up a little more cash for your birthday trip."
*kisses her*
"I get to stay home on your birthday."
"Really, Jack?!"
"Really."
"God, I love you."
"I love you more."
"Mommy, can we watch How To Train Your Dragon now? I wanna see Toothless again, cuz now I got lost teeth too!"
"Sure, baby.
There's more here than we're seeing.
A divine conspiracy.
That you, an angel lovely.
Could somehow fall for me.
"Aeron's fast asleep."
*closes door gently behind him, slides into bed*
"How was your day, sweetheart?"
"Pretty good. Aeron was only a little bit hyper and we got to color together in between naps."
*kisses him*
"I bet he's a lot like you were when you were younger."
*silence*
"Jack, why are you staring at me like that?"
"How the HELL did I get a wife as beautiful as you?"
"Stop it, Jack! You're making me blush."
"You're truly an angel, Kim. I understand if you find someone better, someone that might actually deserve you, but you're here right now. You're here, and I'm watching you, and you're so beautiful my beautiful my heart is breaking."
*kisses him softly*
"What brought that on?"
"I don't know. Just felt like you should know."
You'll always be love's great matyr.
And I'll be the flattered fool.
And I need you.
Morning after
"Doesn't Mommy look beautiful, Aeron?"
*shakes head vehemently*
"Yes Daddy. Almost like a really pretty angel."
"You're right, Aer-bear. Kim is an angel…"
"Daddy why isn't Mommy in heaven?"
*startles*
"What?"
"If Mommy's beautiful enough to be an angel, then why isn't she in heaven with the other angels? That's were angels come from, right Daddy?"
"…I don't know why she isn't in Heaven son. But I do know that we are very lucky to have her, Aeron. Very lucky."
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
And for when I think I've lost my way.
There are no words here left to say, it's true.
God gave me you.
"Jack you've done it."
"I've done what?"
"You broke the addiction. You've been alcohol free for the past three months!"
"KIM!"
*spins her around, kisses her passionately*
"I couldn't have done it without you, Kim. I love you, so much."
*whispers*
"I know, Jack. I know."
On my own I'm only.
Half of what I could be.
I can't do without you.
We are stitched together.
And what life has tethered.-
I pray we never undo.
"WE made it this time, Kim. We've been married for ten years now."
*sighs*
"It seems like just a few days."
*cups her face*
"Aeron would've been happy for us."
*wraps her arms around his neck, cuddles close*
"I know."
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
"Jack, I'll be home in twenty minutes, okay? I have a check up today!"
"Okay, be safe!"
"Love you!"
*door slams*
"Wait, isn't that supposed to be next week?"
And for when I think I've lost my way.
There are no words here left to say, its true.
God gave me you.
"Jack? I'm home!"
*rushes to her*
"Are you alright? You didn't answer my calls and I thought your appointment was next week-"
"Jack, I'm pregnant."
*unbelieving*
"You're what?"
"I'm pregnant, Jack! I'M PREGNANT!"
God gave me you.
Nine months later
"Kim, lets name her Isabelle."
*lovingly tucks back blanket*
"Isabelle?"
"It means 'God given'."
*hugs him tight*
"That's a beautiful name, Jack."
"Just like the mother who carried her."
*kisses her*
"I love you, Kim. You were my first gift from God."
*kisses him back*
"Lets hope she's not our last."
FIN.
