Okay this next chapter is intense includidng their first fight. And it's a big one. Also includes cursing so if you don't want to read that, well you've been warned. PLEASE review! XOXO!

Claudia Joy's POV…

"Moving? To where?" I asked.

"Fort Lewis in Tacoma, Washington," Michael responded.

"When do we have to be there?" I asked.

"Next month," he said, "But I do get a promotion out of this move. You'll be married to Captain Michael James Holden," he said trying to kiss my forehead. I pulled back because I wasn't really in the mood to be cuddled.

"But we have friends here. And I wanted to wait until Amanda was older," I said.

"Baby, we can't wait. It's the army," he said. Boy we had been married less than a year and I was already sick of that line, "You knew this would happen eventually.

"KNOWING AND ACTUALLY HAPPENING ARE TWO DIFFERENT STORIES!" I shouted.

"WELL IT'S THE WAY IT IS CLAUDIA JOY! I CAN'T HELP IT. NEEDS OF THE ARMY!" he shouted back.

"GOD MICHAEL! IF I HAD A DOLLAR EVERYTIME I HEARD THAT LINE I'D BE RICH!" I screamed back louder than before.

"IT'S THE TRUTH!" he yelled just as Amanda started to cry.

"SEE YOU HAPPY! YOU MADE YOUR DAUGHTER CRY WITH YOUR YELLING!" I shouted and walked over to her and picked her up, "It's okay baby girl don't cry," I said softly. I started towards the stairs.

"MY YELLING!? WHAT ABOUT YOU!" he shouted but I ignored hear him andthan his string of cuss words because I was storming up the stairs taking Amanda to her room.

Michael's POV…

She had been upstairs for two hours now. Randall and Charlotte must have left in the midst of the yelling. I knew this move would be hard on her but I never thought she'd be this mad. I guess I'd talk to her calmly when she came back downstairs. If she ever came back downstairs.

I heard footsteps coming from the hallway so I figured it was my wife, "Baby?"

"What?" I heard her say bitterly.

"I'm sorry if I've been inconsiderate. But I can't help what the army wants. You'll just have to get used to it."

"Well today isn't the day," she said again.

"Baby…"

"LISTEN! YOU MISSED THE BIRTH OF YOUR DAUGHTER. I HAD TO ENDURE GESTATIONAL DIABETES, CHILDBIRTH, AND MOTHERHOOD WITHOUT YOU FOR OVER A YEAR. AND WE HAVE A DAUGHTER TO THINK ABOUT NOW, NOT JUST OURSELVES. WE HAVE TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR HER."

"WELL I GUESS YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE YOU LET ME IN BED WITH YOU! BECAUSE IT WAS GOING TO BE THE SAME WHETHER WE HAD A KID OR NOT!" I shouted.

She was really livid now, "ARE YOU SAYING IF WE COULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN YOU WOULDN'T WANT OUR BABY!?"

"NO! I'M JUST SAYING YOU KNEW HOW LIFE WAS GOING TO BE WHEN YOU AGREED TO MARRY ME! CHILD OR NO CHILD IT'S NEEDS…"

"OF THE DAMN ARMY! GOTCHA!" she interrupted and stormed off upstairs for bed I suppose. She turned back around and said, "YOU HAD TO COME ALONG DIDN'T YOU? I WAS FINE WITH MY PLAN OF BECOMING A LAWYER AND OPENING UP MY OWN LAW FIRM BUT NO! YOU HAD TO BE THERE AND I HAD TO FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU AND I HAD TO AGREE TO MARRY YOU! AND THEN YOU HAD TO KNOCK ME UP!"

What? Did she really just say she regretted marrying me? Regretted carrying and birthing our daughter. Regretted bringing a new life into this world together? I followed her up the stairs, "Claudia?" I said only to have a blanket and pillow thrown into my face. That does it! "CLAUDIA JOY HOLDEN! I'M NOT SLEEPING ON THE DAMN COUCH!"

"WELL THEN SLEEP ON THE FLOOR OR OUT SIDE IF YOU WANT BUT YOU SURE AS HELL AIN'T SLEEPING WITH ME!" And with that she slammed the door in my face.

So what's in store for the Holdens next?
