It was nearly 2014, the whole square was getting ready to welcome the New Year in. The square is always quite the days between Christmas and New Year, it's a weird time, where no one does anything. But when New Year's comes, the square is alive again.
At the Branning's Abi was rushing getting ready for Lola's, whereas Jay was just slouched in her bed, not bothering to get ready for a few more hours. Jay loved watching Abi, she was the most gorgeous person to him, and not that she could see it. Jay is staying round more and more, Abi never has liked to look at Phil across the table in the morning since he has catched them at it a few times. And plus Jays room at the Mitchells was full of boxes for moving in with Dexter the day after. Jay hardly had to go back to the Mitchells not when a lot of his belongings are at Abi's. Abi was hardly showing, but Jay was just looking at her stomach, to see if he could see anything different. Abi was trying on most of her wardrobe, after finishing her hair, Abi curled it loosely, then put the top of it in a top knot, letting loose curly run down her neck and shoulders. A few dresses were tried on, then aggressively chucked on the floor, leggings and tops, all piled in the corner of the floor. Jay found it amusing, he already had his outfit sorted, jeans and a t-shirt topped off with a hoddie and white shoes. Then a little scuffle up of his hair before walking out the door. Over half of Abi's wardrobe was on the floor. Until she found some denim ripped short shorts, now she was thinking boots and her maroon crop top, showing a little belly and some cleavage, Jay liked that idea. Nearing to quarter past seven, Abi started her make-up, smoky eyes, a little eyeliner, false lashes, a little foundation and some nudish brown lipstick. This took her up till Jay had to get ready then minutes later they were out the door on their way to Lola's.
"Wow, Abs. You look amazing!" Lola said as she opened the door.
"Doesn't she just" Jay resorted, looking at Abi and biting his lip. Abi leaned in to kiss him, Jay didn't hesitate to respond.
"Come in when you're ready then" Lola spoke as she started to walk away after watching her best friends for a few seconds. They split apart and smirked at one another, Abi wiping Jays lips after one more peck.
Dexter and Peter were already at Lola's, Billy was already out must have started at the pub early. After deciding on a few movies to watch, Peter, Dexter and Lola decided to go and get drinks at the off-licence just down the road while Jay and Abi looked after Lexi, she was awake and pouncing off the walls. Jay thought it was nice, imagining the future with either his son or daughter this time next year.
"Look at her, I cannot wait for this one to get here. Our own little family" Abi mentioned rubbing her flat stomach while looking into Jays eyes as they were sat on the sofa. Jay just smiled at the mention of his close family.
"Ours, all ours. I really am sorry I cannot give that one a second big family." Jay said looking down.
"It has you, that's all it needs, and they – your mum, dad and nan. Will be looking down at you watching a beautiful man change, and that's the best thing that they probably wished for. I love you Jay Brown. I am so glad I have found you and loved you since I was fourteen."
Jay responded in the best way he could, leaning in and digging his tongue into Abi's mouth, pushing Abi back against the sofa on top of Abi. They were very passionate, if this wasn't at Lola's it would have definitely been moved into the bedroom. Lexi was oblivious to the whole scene, its wasn't for another 10 minutes when the three of them arrived back from the off-licence that Abi and Jay realised how far they had got, Jays top was off and Abi's shorts were undone.
"SERIOUSLY." Lola yelled while Peter and Dexter were smirking and laughing behind her.
"Oh, shit. Sorry Lo." Jay replied, stopping what Abi and he were doing. Jay and Abi quickly got themselves fixed up. Abi didn't know where to look, they were very close to taking it a little further, even though they were all friends Abi still felt very awkward afterwards for a while, until Jay cuddled closer and kissed her neck, while the others were handing out the alcohol and spread of food onto the living room table.
"Right, now I have picked out a few movies; American Hustle, 12 years a slave, This is the End, and Monsters University – for Lexi" Lola paused. "And Dex" Lola finished of making everyone laugh at Dexter's facial expression.
"Well we might as well watch Lexi's movie first and then put her to bed after so we can watch all the others and have a late one" Peter replied taking a swig from his beer.
"I want to sit next to auntie Abi" Lexi yelled and dragged out in her playful voice as Lola lifted her up. Lexi pulled away to Abi's arms. Jay loved watching Lexi with Abi, it gave him a warm glow. He cannot wait to watch Abi with their future child, and becoming a family all together. Abi, Jay cuddled up together while Lexi was laid against Abi on the corner of the sofa. Dexter was squeezed next to Jay at the end, soon resorting to the floor. Peter and Lola were sharing the armchair. They were all comfy, apart from Dexter that was. Everyone was too engrossed in the movie to realise Lexi had nodded of half way through. After the movie had finished Abi agreed to put Lexi to bed, just as she was about to move her she woke up.
"Story?" Lexi asked sweetly, Abi nodded as Jay picked up Lexi and followed the love of his life into the next room. Jay placed Lexi into Lola's bed, just like she had instructed, Lexi pulled Abi over to lie next to her to read the story 'The Three Little Witches'. Lexi always loved this story. Jay just watched as Abi climbed in bed under the duvet with Lexi, letting Lexi cuddle in. It took both Abi and Jay a while to get Lexi down, but eventually they did it together. But they enjoyed it, looking at the life they will soon share, the family that they have always wanted together is happening. Abi couldn't wait for them to be a family, the three of them, together. The love both Jay and her will give to this child will be endless. After watching Lexi asleep for a few minutes, they both tangled into each other's arms and had a few minutes silence. Soon walking back into the next room with the others.
"She get off ok?" Lola asked not moving her head from the screen.
"Yep, she had her auntie Abi there didn't she." Jay said sitting down on the sofa next to Dexter again.
"At least there will be more room on this thing now" Dex said sarcastically smirking at Jay.
"Shut up Dext." Abi replied raising her eyebrows towards Dexter.
Approximately six hours later; they all decided to stay over Lola's for the night. Billy returned around 1ish, drunk and stumbling around the whole flat. They all began getting tired after all the movies were finished, Lola and Peter decided to go to bed in Lola's room. Leaving Jay, Abi and Dexter to share the living room, they sorted it out for Dexter to have the arm chair, and Abs and Jay to share the sofa. The three of them decided to just watch BBC Three, and relax for a while, the boys had the last of the beers. Soon all of them falling into a deep slumber.
The next morning, Billy woke up the whole household by bashing a wooden spoon and saucepan together. The place was a tip, cans everywhere, food all over the floor. It was moving day for Jay as he was finally becoming Dexter's flatmate. Just Jay and Dexter were moving all his things, Abi just watched and laughed at all the stupid movements they were making throughout the day, Abi and Jay agreed to keep a few of Jays things in Abi's room for when he still stays over; it probably wont happen that much anymore, but they both liked being in the room which they first starting sleeping together in. Abi did help set up Jays room, adding in a few extra things for herself.
"Abi, c'mon. This is our man cave, not somewhere for you to come in and mess up." Dexter resorted as he watched Abi place a picture of Jay and her on the side.
"Yes, and on the plus side the baby will be here soon with Abi, so it can't be a mancave for long." Jay looked at Dexter straight in the eyes, already thinking about looking after both Abi and the baby. After the 'man cave' was set up and ready, Dexter went to get some beers and takeaway to celebrate. Abi and Jay left alone in his room, in his flat. They just smiled at each other, thinking the exact same thing.
"Sooooo…." Jay said slowly, stringing the word along.
"So" Abi replied, quick and short.
Jay lent in and kissed Abi, full of passion and love. Falling onto the bed, ripping each other's clothes of after a few moments. More moments later all clothes were flung onto the floor making a whole heap of mess, a few more heated kisses, they were in pure bliss. Just passing the time in the best way possible, this action has been a very weekly occurrence, sometimes more. After they just laughed and talked until Dexter came back with the food.
