Chapter Three: Home
Wednesday rolled around rather quickly and while Jayda had returned to school from being sick with the flu, Alex found herself at the doctor's office. She nervously sat on the examination table, waiting for the results of the tests she had done.
She had been hoping and praying that nothing was wrong. Her mother and grandmother both had trouble with their ovaries. Her mother had some ovarian cysts and her grandmother had even developed cancer. She could only hope that nothing of the sort was going on in her body.
"Mrs. Orton?" Dr. Anderson questioned, walking into the room.
"Yes," she said, taking her bottom lip in between her teeth.
"I have good news and bad news for you. Which would you like first?" he asked, wheeling a stool over and sitting in front of her.
Alex took in a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "What the hell? The bad news first."
"The bad news is that you aren't pregnant."
She breathed a sigh of relief. "That's the bad news? I already knew that."
"Okay, then, I take it your ready for the good news."
"Which is…" Alex said, prodding him to go on.
"You're perfectly fine. There's no cysts, no cancer. You're fine."
"Then why am I not able to get pregnant then?" she asked, hopelessly.
"Bad timing. That's all. But a word to the wise, you are ovulating right now. Have a good day Mrs. Orton."
Alex walked out of the hospital with a smile plastered on her face as she pulled out her cell phone. She dialed Randy's number and awaited his answer.
"Hey, sexy," he greeted her. "I haven't heard from you today."
"Well, I wanted to wait until I got out of the doctor's office to call you and tell you the news."
"Is everything okay?"
"Everything is perfect. And guess what else I found out."
"You're pregnant?" Randy asked, hopefully.
"No, but I could be if you promise to come home tonight."
"I think I can make that happen," he said, huskily. "It'll be late, but I'll be there."
She smiled an even bigger smile as she reached the car door. "I'll be waiting."

3:00 A.M.
Randy fumbled with the keys outside of the front door. He was so glad to be home, albeit it was almost sunrise when he got there, but all that mattered was that he was there. He put the key in the lock and opened the door. He had barely stepped in the living room when a pair of arms wrapped around his neck and a pair of lips crashed onto his.
Once he pulled away, Randy looked into the ocean blue eyes that he loved so much. "That was one hell of a greeting."
"I missed you," she smiled. "And I couldn't bear going to sleep knowing that you were coming home."
"Maybe you should've gotten some sleep, because you aren't going to get any now that I'm here," he said, shutting and locking the door behind him before picking her up and carrying her upstairs to their room
Her legs were tightly wrapped around his waist while her lips left a trail of kisses down his neck. He laid her on the bed before turning and closing the bedroom door. He stripped himself of his shirt and track pants, kicked off his shoes and socks and hovered over her, placing a light kiss on her lips as she reached up to caress his clean shaven face. He tugged on the cotton shorts that she had on to reveal barely there red lace panties.
"Now, these," he smirked, pulling at the fabric. "These are sexy."
"You like them?" she asked, biting her bottom lip.
He shook his head. "I think they're going to have to go." He pulled them down her long tan legs and threw them to the floor before reaching up and removing her shirt and bra. "God, you are so beautiful," he said, running his fingers through her auburn hair before kissing her.
She closed her eyes, taking in the moment as her fingers hooked his boxer briefs and slid them down his muscular thighs.
"This is it," Randy whispered in her ear. "This is the time."
Hours later, Randy held Alex tightly against him as he watched the sun rise and begin to peak through the curtains. She had been asleep for a little over an hour now, but Randy was wide awake. He truly felt this was their time. She absentmindedly buried her head into his chest a little more and he soon felt her warm breath on his bare skin.
He pulled the blanket just underneath her chin to secure her warmth before regrettably getting up from the bed and throwing on some clothes. Jayda needed to be up soon and he wanted to make sure that his face was the first thing she saw before she ventured off to school. He went downstairs to the kitchen, let the dogs outside, and made a breakfast of eggs, bacon and toast and then headed to his daughter's room to wake her up.
He sat on her bed and shook her softly. "Munchkin, it's time to get up."
"I don't wanna…" she moaned in response
"But it's time to get up for school. The sooner you go to school, the sooner you can come home and we can watch your recital together."
Her emerald eyes fluttered open and she turned to face her dad. "Daddy!" she squealed and threw her arms around him.
"Shh…mom's still asleep. I have breakfast downstairs waiting for you."
She smiled and followed him downstairs. Randy sat across the table from her. He missed times like these where it was just him and Jayda. "So, tell me about your recital. How did it go?"
"Good, but Tiffany she was so stupid. She messed up like ten times and bumped in to me. We practiced it over and over and she just can't do anything right," she explained, rolling her eyes as she put a piece of bacon in her mouth.
Randy smiled. She sure had picked up his attitude. "You can't blame everything on her. Maybe someone messed up and bumped in to her and that's why she messed up."
"Yeah right, Dad. She messes up when she dances by herself."
"Just eat your breakfast," he chuckled.
They soon finished eating and Jayda got ready and grabbed her backpack. "Are you going to take me to school, Dad, or am I riding the bus?"
"I can take you. That's what dads do, right?"
She nodded and grinned before they headed out to his Escalade. Randy drove the twenty five minute drive to her school and turned to her. "You have a good day, munchkin and your mom and I will pick you up."
"Okay," she said and gave him a peck on the cheek. "And don't watch my recital without me."
"I won't, Jayda," he smiled and watched his daughter climb out of the car and head into the school.
It felt so good to be home.
Okay, all of you wonderful people. I just thought that I would tell you that with your votes and some from a couple of outside sources, the recipient of a major part in this story is…drum roll please…Jeff Hardy.
Sorry Edgeheads and Jerichoholics. But don't worry, they will have their parts. So stay tuned to find out what Mr. Hardy's role will be! And don't forget to review!
