Chapter 12: "It's going to amaze your world; It's going to release the dream."

After a few moments of lingering kisses and touches Robin pulled away. "Did you pay for this room for the night?" she asked shyly.

Patrick looked at her and wondered where her thoughts were going. "No…I wasn't sure if you would want to stay. I can though, if you want me too."

Robin smiled at him and thought about it. "I think I want to stay."

"Okay, I will call Matt and Maxie and ask them to keep Emma for the night, and we'll stay here, just the two of us." He rose to his feet and grabbed his phone from his coat pocket.

Robin watched him walk away and while he made his phone call she sat back and relaxed onto the couch. Maybe a night away with Patrick was just what she needed. She knew he'd help her keep her mind off of her pending test results and most of all he'd make her feel safe and loved which is all she really needed right now.

"Yeah, okay…thanks Matt. Can I talk to her for a minute?" Patrick said into the phone. "Hey baby girl. Are you having fun with Uncle Matt and Aunt Maxie?"

Robin could see a smile forming on his face. He was such a good dad and every doubt he'd ever had during her first pregnancy had been completely false. He was the best parent imaginable and he adapted to it flawlessly. Without even realizing it, Robin placed her hand on top of her stomach. When Patrick turned around and saw her doing so his heart swelled. "Hey princess, do you wanna say hi to mommy too before you start your sleepover? Okay, she's right here." Patrick walked over and handed the phone to Robin.

"Hi baby." She said to which she received a very happy "Hi mommy!"

Mother and daughter talked for a couple of minutes while Patrick went downstairs to inform the front desk that he would be keeping the room for the night. When he got back upstairs Robin was still sitting on the couch but she was off the phone.

"Everything okay with the kid?" he asked.

"Yup, she's gonna have a great night with Maxie I'm sure." She laughed. "Now, what are we going to do? I don't have any clothes or anything here. I love your spur of the moment romantic gesture but I can't stay in these clothes until tomorrow."

"Didn't think of that…" he trailed off, "Hmmm, what if I run home and get some things for us and on my way back I can pick up dinner? Sound good?"

Robin thought about it but decided against that idea. "How about I go home and get our things because, no offence honey, but I'll know what we need and where to find it all. I'll be quicker." She laughed.

"You're probably right." He admitted. "Well while you're gone I will order dinner. Is Chinese okay?"

"Sounds perfect." She said as she stood to her feet. She went to grab her coat and by the time she turned around Patrick was already standing right there.

"Be fast. I'll miss you." He said cocking his head to one side and smiling, revealing his dimple that she loved so much.

"I will, I'll miss you too." She said before kissing him on the lips and then leaving the room.

Patrick looked around the room after she left and decided the atmosphere wasn't setting the mood he wanted. He left the room and headed down stairs so he could take a walk to a nearby shop. He needed candles, matches, and flowers. Hopefully he could find what he needed, get back, and set up before she arrived back at the MC.

Luckily for him, he found everything he needed fairly easily and was back in their room within a half hour. He had called for dinner while he was out so he expected it to arrive very shortly. As he waited, he lit the candles and placed her flowers aside so she wouldn't see them right when she walked in; he wanted to present them to her.

After about ten minutes, the lobby called up to the room to inform Patrick that his dinner had arrived so he went down, paid, and brought it back upstairs. Now all he had to do was wait for Robin to return to him; which she did, "Fifty-eight." Patrick said as she walked in the door.

"What?" she asked confused before she saw the room, the flames from the candles were dancing and illuminating the room perfectly. "What is all this?"

"Fifty-eight minutes. That's how long it took you." He replied. "And this is me being sentimental,"

"You timed me?" she asked with an arched eyebrow.

Patrick moved towards her and took their bags from her hands, "Well yeah, I missed you." He joked.

"You're adorable, you know that?" she smiled as she took off her coat. "You didn't have to do all this."

"I know, but I wanted too." He said as he returned to her and pulled her in for a kiss. "Now you better be hungry, I got all your favourites."

"I am hungry, thank you." She said taking her seat on the couch. The food was waiting on the table in front of her. "Come on mister, sit down, momma is hungry!"

Patrick beamed, "Is she?" he could see that his plan for the day had worked. Whether or not it was intentional she was embracing the pregnancy and that's all he wanted. "Alright." He said taking a seat next to her. "Let's eat."

Robin dug right in and enjoyed every bite. "This is so good. Thank you so much." She said between mouthfuls.

"You're welcome." He chuckled.

"What? What's funny?" she asked with her chopsticks in hand.

Patrick shook his head, "You have some sauce on your face, come here." He instructed as he brought his hand to her face and used his thumb to wipe the corner of her mouth clean.

"So funny." She said sarcastically.

"It was!" he played back. "Even with sauce on your face you are absolutely stunning by the way."

"You're just saying that to make me feel better!" She said before sticking her tongue out at him.

This brought on another light laugh from her husband who then said, "No I'm not, I mean it, but if it makes you feel better than that works too."

Robin finished eating the noodles out of her carton and placed it back on the table. "You almost done?" she asked.

"Yup." He said taking his last bite. "Why?" he added before wiping his mouth with a napkin.

She didn't answer; she just moved forward and began kissing him. First they were just light soft kisses but soon they both deepened it and soon their tongues were in battle. Patrick pulled away and began placing light kisses down her neck and collarbone. "I love you." She whined as he continued to work his magic.
