They finished dinner and made it to the truck where Eddie opened her door and helped her in. When he crawled in and backed out to head back to the cottage on the other side of the estate Janet questioned him about that night.

"So what are my chances about really finding out what happened in here" Eddie just grinned

"I told you I was going to show you. You don't believe me"

"No it's not that it just seems like something always comes up when we start talking about it" Janet really didn't believe him. He always found a way out of it.

"Somethings going to come up alright" Eddie mumbled and Janet pretended like she didn't hear him.

"Hey, where do you think your going" Eddie asked when she started to open her door.

"Inside" She guessed

"You want to know what happened or not"

"You know I do"

"Shall we"

"You're serious" He just nodded

"Okay"

They sat in the dark and silence for a few minutes before Eddie started anything. He reached down and took her heels off tossing them over the seat soon followed by his own shoes.

"So we sat in here barefoot. " Janet giggled out "That must have been …."

"Do you want to know or not" Eddie interrupted not amused by her playfulness when it was something so serious to him. It meant something to Eddie and he was sure it would to her if she had remembered.

"Okay, I know we drank to much and couldn't go home but I have enough since to know taking our shoes off didn't cause me to take my bra off"

"I'll tell you but you can't make fun of me"

"Is there a reason to make fun of you" She asked completely confused

"Yes, because you know we were dancing and I may have gotten a little worked up with you against me and since you didn't say anything about me basically touching your ass the whole time I just got more worked up."

" I know what having my ass grabbed feels like Eddie and I don't even recall your hands being on my ass that night" She really never did notice, she was already tipsy when he got there

"They were, trust me. Why do you think I kept dancing with you in the first place. I didn't want to turn lose of you and you didn't notice it becasue I wasn't some drunk just grabbing at you. I was more of what you'd call caressing it" He was such the smart ass

"Well it's always nice to hear the only reason a man wants to dance with you is so he can cock a cheap feel" She could act insulted if she wanted but knowing Eddie Latekka was cocking a feel off of her made her hot.

"That's not the only reason but it is what I kept telling myself every time a song ended and I didn't let you go." Eddie smiled bashfully

"Anyway, we drank a lot then I walked you out and you called me out on stalling and I ended up confessing I could see down your shirt all night and at the current moment. You confessed that you knew I had been doing it for a long time and that you let it go. I also learned you switch my beer and water down ass holes drinks."

"I actually remember some of that to be honest. I made you tip me for it and you accused me of being a prostitute" Janet teased him

"That's not what I said. Any way I called you on Tyler and made you tell me what the loud ass at the end of the bar that night said to you and somehow we ended up flirting because I really wanted to know what the panties that matched that bra looked like."

"Does that have something to do with moods" She knew bits and pieces and actually a lot more than she realized that she thought she had dreamed once she crashed at home.

"Yeah, do you remember them" He grinned almost giddy once he had her sitting against the truck legs stretched out over him like the night in question only this time he wasn't bashful about where he rested his hands.

"Not really"

"There was the thanks for the ride and one I believe was appropriately named the equal opportunity but the one I wanted to know about was the one you were in that night"

"Tell me you didn't find out" She gritted her teeth

"I did find out but only because I was in the same mood. You wouldn't admit it at first but you finally caved and confessed that you wanted to come home every night to a man that knew how to touch you and I never did admit I wanted to be that man. Maybe if I had things would have been different for us"

"Yeah, it would have been." Janet knew if had told her how he really felt instead of leaving her to guess it would have been a lot different. She trusted Eddie more than any man on the face of the earth even long before they were a they but not knowing how he felt left room for not knowing he would have stopped the kiss.

"After some serious seduction on your part and a great deal of effort on my part not to strip us both down on the hood of the charger…do you have any idea how hardup you can makea man without so much as even a little effort on your part" He interrupted his self just thinking about the things she did distracted him

"You mean like the night we played poker and the geezers pulled the whole sitting in each others lap thing so they could actually get a close up of breasts since they hadn't been able to see anyone elses in who knows how long which clearly you didn't take well to them out doing Latekka so you rubbed in an insinuation that you could get more out of me by handing me that bottle of beer" Eddie didn't know she caught on to that and his embarrassment showed

"To start with there's no way you just naturally pick up a bottle and drink it like that and in my defense I had to do something if a man twice my age can get you to pour his beer while he stared at your chest 4 inches away I had to do something" He continued to blush

"To start with I don't blame you and for your defense I went along with it and I may have put a little effort into it that time. It wasn't like the jokes weren't clearly about us anyway. Hell I knew Sully was using me as bait to get you back there; all they talked about before then was Latekka this and Latekka that until I finally offered to get them an autographed picture and Sully drug me out front to get you."

"You knew I would come?" Eddie didn't think she ever knew he liked her

"I knew you loved to play with the guys and that if I was back there they would be cutting up" No she didn't know he liked her

"Really come one….. in the bag, reading the cards, hands on the table, level playing field, show the senior citizens how a young man does it" Janet gave him a hard time. "You'd figure what I said about you being the only one who had something to make it worth my effort would have shut them up"

"Joe's convinced you were talking about him and I wasn't convinced you were talking about that" Eddie laughed as they settled in getting more comfortable and he leaned into her more.

"Eddie, what were we talking about once we got in this truck" Janet changed the subject back to what happened that night

"After you admitted you were staring at my ass while you had me searching radio stations only to tell me you didn't see what the fuss was all about?"

"I lied"

"We pretty much ended up like this and……."

"Shhhhh. I already know what happened. I have the whole time I just thought I had dreamed it"

"It was a dream but it definitely happened. Mrs. Eddie Latekka you took my innocence from me that night"

"Your innocence, Mr. Janet Meadows was long gone by then" She smiled but spoke softly

"Not my naked innocence, trust me there was never anything innocent about that with me. What you took was my hearts innocence that night" Eddie kissed her softly on her neck just behind her ear as he pushed her curls out of the way. He once again held her head in his large hands loving her hair wrapped around his fingers. He was gentle to avoid her stitches hidden beneath the locks. Eddie also didn't forget his hand wanted to feel her heat and given it was already on her thigh it didn't take a whole lot of effort to settle next to her core careful not to pull her dress up but gently snake his way underneath it. That was definitely a pleasure as he rested his hand against her so tenderly.

"Are you comfortable" He asked

"Ummmhmmmm" she couldn't speak when Eddie was whispering against that particular spot of her neck. It occurred to Eddie that there was no way he would be able to duplicate that night with her in a dress. He couldn't figure out how to casually get to her breasts. A t-shirt was easy and the skirt of her dress stood no chance but he was going to have to be creative this go round.

Eddie quickly decided creativity wasn't going to help either. She had on a dress that wrapped and tied at the side so he slowly untied it with one hand until it was loose enough he could get his hand underneath but without completely undressing her. Janet put her hand on top of his gently.

"Eddie" She decided they could skip the modesty but he 'shhh'd' her before he understood what she was offering and she let him go. He kissed her hesitantly as he did before and she again bit his lip urging him to continue for more.

Janet kissed his neck and down his chest as she unbuttoned his shirt then down to his belt while he did some very attentive touching of her body. It was slow but Janet made good use of her time undressing Eddie. He didn't stop her this time and he had an unbuttoned shirt along with unzipped pants just waiting for the right moment.

Eddie started kissing her again and soon fell into the urge to finally see her. He finished un wrapping the dress from her letting it lay open. He shivered seeing the matching bra and panties that started it all. He actually started to cry as he caressed over them. Not wanting Janet to know about that particular duplication of events he bent down to kiss her just above her navel. He wasn't thinking about the baby or the rings or the sex but only the woman lying beneath him and the fact that nearly a year after he passed up the best offer of his life he had a chance at it again.

----------------------------------------------------

"So have you talked to the ………." Sully hushed Nick

"Nope still don't know if I can get that brand of beer" Nick knew that meant shut it down.

"What brand" Rooster asked since he was standing right next to Sully

"Can I get a beer and I don't care what brand" Rory plopped down on a stool next to Nick and Aubrey saving them an made up explanation.

"Sure thing Sweetie" Rooster wasn't getting Sully's kindness to Rory.

"I'm not your sweetie" Rory barked and Sully laughed

"Something wrong Rory" Rooster asked

"Yeah you do look a little upset" Aubrey added

"Where is she. I should at least get a chance to toast my new sister" Rory was sour " I'm sure she's just as pissed about it as I am"

"I don't really think she's upset about it" Nick couldn't help but snicker not sure what Rory was mumbling

"I guess you talked to your mom" Sully again interrupted

"You know if they were going to get married someone could have had the decency to tell me. I wasn't even invited to the wedding"

"What wedding !" Rooster asked

"The one that apparently happened this morning" Rory threw the few nuts she had in her hand back in the bowl.

"I believe that was yesterday" Aubrey corrected

"No it was this morning" Aubrey and Nick both caught there was something going on but wanted to know what since Sully clearly didn't want them to spill the beans

"Wait a minute who got married this morning?" Rooster again asked

"Claire Dunlap and Richard Meadows or may I stand corrected Mr. and Mrs. Richard Meadows" Nick and Aubrey were in shock along with Rooster

"Claire Dunlap as in your mom and Richard Meadows as Janet's dad" Rooster was slow getting it to process

"Do you know anyone else by those names" Rory was a bitch to him. Rooster just died out laughing.

"Is she serious" Nick asked Sully

"Yep, they were originally going to get married yesterday but that obliviously didn't work out so they tied the knot this morning" Sully explained

"Does Janet know that her and Rory are technically sisters" Rooster laughed again

"I talked to Latekka this morning I'm sure he's told her by now if she was feeling well enough"

"Where is my sister, isn't she supposed to be working here" Rory asked in a huff

"She's off for a few days" Sully answered her snide comment

"I suppose that has something to do with Eddie being out of town" She was pissed beyond belief

"There's a good chance it does" Nick snickered

"Yeah well she needs to do what ever it is she's going to do to him and get her ass back here to help me end this stupid mid life crisis our parents seem to be having."

"You don't really think Janet's going to help you do a damn thing do you" Hannah arrived just in time.

"Hannah, Rory here just found out that Claire and Richard got married this morning, she's just a little upset about that particular piece of news" Nick clued Hannah in to be quiet.

"I guess that could be a little upsetting seeing how your trying to persuade Eddie to leave your sister for you."

"You don't know what your talking about Hannah Jane, besides don't you have some of Ray's friends to entertain." Rory knew about Hannah's indiscretion's from way back

"Don't you have a husband to entertain"

"Alright ladies, shut it down. As much as I would like to see a cat fight I don't think Rory's up to it and it's just not fun if you both aren't into it" Sully chilled the room

"How is her head anyway. Did you really give her a concussion" Rory asked Rooster

"No, it was an accident" Sully butted in "Look Janet's okay with her dad and your mom being together, she was probably miffed that they didn't tell her either but she knew they loved each other and she didn't expect it would be to far off"

"They told her they were seeing each other but not me. Who else knew"

Hannah, Aubrey and Nick raised their hands. "Great"

"Okay since you're already in a bad mood and the four of you are here there's something else you should know."

"I don't think we should………" Nick thought Eddie and Janet could break that one

"No just listen. Rory your not only Janet's step-sister now you're my step-granddaughter"

"WHAT" it was a unanimous reaction

"Richard is my son, Janet's my grand daughter and Eddie's dad was my best friend and I've been seeing his mother for years" Sully rambled out like it wasn't a big deal as he wiped the bar

"Okay I got that you were seeing Lana but does Janet know you're her grandfather?" Nick asked

"Yes she knows"

"Is there anything else we should know about our friends, maybe one of them is an alien or something"

"There might be a couple of things certain people may or may not know some or the other of but that's not my business so end of conversation." Sully ordered as Lana came out from the back

---------

"Rory, how are you doing" Lana couldn't stand Rory but wasn't going to be rude it was her best friends daughter

"Just peachy how about you. I hear your best friend married your boyfriends son but I'm sure you were there and therefore already know it"

"No, I wasn't there. It was a private affair or else I'm sure you would have been invited. Your mom really did want to include you but since Janet was unable to attend it wouldn't have been very fair to include just one of their children"

"It's not my fault she's off screwing Eddie" Rory barked

"I'm quite sure they are." Lana added being her normal blunt self and the gang laughed "But it's none of our business what they do"

"I'm glad everyone finds this so damn amusing but I'm willing to bet Janet's not 'okay' with it either" Rory left

-----------------------------------------

"When she finds out that Eddie…………" Hannah looked up to see Rooster still sitting there "That Eddie knew they were dating she's going to flip big time" Hannah saved herself

"I can't believe you never said anything" Rooster just shook his head at Sully and walked off

"Speaking of Eddie I think I'll give him the heads up that Rory knows" Lana picked up the phone

"He's on his honeymoon. Give them some privacy, I'm sure they've got other things they would rather you not interrupt" Sully politely told her with a chuckle from the previous statements

"I'm sure they want answer if they are doing 'other things'" Lana told him but decided to wait till morning

"Hey, I'm with you man but if I was you I wouldn't argue. Eddie's mom has always been hot" Aubrey hit Nick in the shoulder

"You know in that fresh baked cookies kind of way" Sully just laughed at his feeble attempt to redeem him self

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Eddie continued to kiss over Janet's body desperately wanting the moment to last forever but knowing it couldn't. Janet could feel his hands trembling as he touched her. Janet shifted her body by picking her bottom up from the seat and pushing into Eddie so she could scoot more into a laying position and he almost naturally wound up completely on top of her but scared to death he was going to hurt her in the small confines of his truck.

"We can go in, the bed will be more comfortable for you" He offered and the last thing she wanted was to think about Eddie thinking about the baby as selfish as it may have sounded she wanted it to be just the two of them making the moment happen because they loved each other not out of guilt and obligations of love but pure untouched lustful, blissful, sacred love for each other.

"Eddie" He looked into her eyes and could see the raw desire that was there the first night and did exactly as she wanted. She didn't have to ask he knew she was telling him to stop worrying about her and take care of him self and for once he was going to do both though he hoped she only got that he was taking care of his needs.

Eddie continued to do the things that he knew got her going some of which he did the first night having continued to do them again since they worked. He pulled her into him holding her hip and turning her nearly on her side slowly working his leg to lay between hers as he eased the straps of her bra down only to be helped out by Janet as she unhooked the straps from the convertible bra leaving it strapless, Eddie followed suite with the other side then immediately lost his self in her cleavage as she could feel his tongue slowly touching her skin and ultimately her nipple as Eddie eased the cup of her low cut bra down using his finger. Janet didn't shy away from touching him as she continued to kiss him on the neck and hold his head as he made love to her breasts.

"Can we……….." She asked and he was on his knees facing her before she ever got the words out. Then he turned his attention right back to Janet and eased her to sitting and she did so willingly as Eddie freed her the rest of the way from her dress.

Janet began to push his shirt back off of his shoulders slowly and Eddie eased up long enough to help her get his shirt off in the cramped space.

Janet sat with one leg on each side of him with the most perfect posture. Eddie wasn't complaining that was for sure especially when she started kissing his chest. He should have known to expect some awkwardness in the plan. It was the seat of his truck after all and perfection was impossible enough to reach inside her big bed let alone the strict confines of a truck cab though he was pretty sure they were close to it not giving thought to the unusual positions. Things flowed smoothly and they were at the fork in the road of no return.

Eddie so badly wanted to double check and make sure she was comfortable enough but he knew she would hate it even if she was miserably uncomfortable. He never did quite understand why she hated him taking care of her, it was hard when that's all he ever wanted to do in the first place.

This time there was no laughter at the faults and mishaps just simply overlooking them. "I hope slow's okay with you tonight" He whispered trailing her neck in slow kisses.

"Anything you want baby" She whimpered back as he began to suck at the top of her shoulder as far back as he could reach right where he knew would drive her crazy. He really liked to do it when he was behind her though he wasn't pushing that tonight.

"I want you" He replied running his hands around her back squeezing her tight. Janet just leaned back resting her head on the window and her butt still against Eddie.

"Is being married going to be enough for you to take me" Janet whispered looking right into his eyes holding his face in her hands

"Yeah but I'm still not going to deserve it" Eddie replied never so much as blinking

"That's a matter of opinion and I would have never given you an open ended invitation if I thought any ones opinion mattered but my own"

"So you remember giving me that" He smiled rubbing over her back still pressed against her front

"Do you remember what it said" She asked him surprised when he dug his wallet out of his back pocket and handed it to her.

"You still have it. I can't believe you kept it after….."

"I guess that means you don't remember what it says" Eddie grinned knowing Janet knew that night he wasn't ready for more. Eddie repeated it so poetically.

"I believe I told you I wasn't a tease nor a liar as a general rule and the offer will always stand" Eddie kissed her gently but with purpose leaning her back against the seat having pulled her hips towards him as he scooted back towards his door. After a few minutes of rubbing and kissing her body he eased the panties he waited so long to look at off of her neatly laying them on the seat next to her as if they were to be handled with care.

He assumed the position just looking at her and Janet remained quiet having already freed him from his pants immediately after he took her panties. She gave him the time to think about whatever it was he was trying to work out in his head. It took a minute but it finally dawned on her that Eddie was nervous and scared and though she had always tried to satisfy him he still hadn't gotten what he needed and in Eddie's case that was something he had to give himself. Janet couldn't do that for him and they both knew it as they sat there Janet quiet and relaxed though she was bottomless and her legs were spread around Eddie as he rubbed her face and down her chest in the midst of the largest obstacle of his life.

Janet cried when he finally and affectionately pushed deep inside of her. He stopped after several extremely slow thrusts and unhooked her bra joining it with her panties.

"I'm fine, don't cry for me" Eddie whispered as he pulled back slowly again. The angle was doing things to Janet she hadn't experienced so intensely before and she knew some of it was because she was pregnant and things seemed to be changing in the orgasm inducing area. What worked before didn't and what didn't did and sometimes a mixture of both did it. Eddie was aware of the fact and found what worked for her. It worked well enough in fact that he had to back off so she would stop climbing off the seat with every thrust.

Within a few short minutes of taking her bra off he knew she was uncomfortable without it. She kept trying to hold her own breasts but needed her hands to help raise herself to meet Eddie.

"I've got you baby, I want let go" Eddie cupped her breasts holding against her rib cage and continued to go slower than he had ever done before. Twenty minutes later they were both in tears climbing out of his truck.

-------------------------------------------

After a hot bath and a perfectly snuggled spot against Eddie for the remainder of the night Janet woke at daybreak to an empty bed. She could smell coffee and for the first time it didn't turn her stomach. She got up wearing the gown she had brought for their wedding night one in which Eddie was pressed to restrain himself when he saw . Sheer white with built in cups made out of the same sheer fabric ruched to make up the bra aspect of it. It nearly killed him all night. Janet was looking out for her self with that one. She knew it was sexy and she would have the support she needed. Janet finally found Eddie sitting in a chair outside with a hot cup of coffee in all of his glory covered by a small throw.

His back was to the door and he didn't know she was up until she crawled into his lap settling between his legs and leaning against his chest forcing him to share the blanket. Eddie was more than surprised to see her up.

"Sorry about the coffee, I didn't think you would be up" he massaged her shoulders having sat his cup of coffee next to the phone he was going to order breakfast from.

"It's fine" He almost laughed when she picked it up and started to drink it but let it go hoping it didn't make her sick.

"What are you doing up" Eddie eased the thin spaghetti strap down and he kissed her shoulder right where the current hickey rested

Janet sat the coffee down before answering. "It's my turn" She said softly

"Your turn for what" He was clueless wrapping his arms around her waist and burying his head in her neck

"Do I really have to spell it out for you" She was playful and Eddie reconized that tone in her voice again

"No, but I want complain if you do" Eddie kissed her neck and down her back leaning her forward using one hand to hold her breast and the other to ease her up and actually in his lap. He quickly slipped her panties down when he got her up. She had pulled her hair up loosely and her curls fell just the way Eddie liked them but didn't get in his way.

He had no idea she was going to actually sit straight down onto his hard anatomy. He was quick to figure it out as she reached down and grabbed him as she did. She wanted to gloat so proud of herself for his sudden quaff of breath but she refrained.

"Are you okay" She couldn't resist that one comment

"Yeah, don't mind me. I'll catch up" He replied taking her panties the rest of way off. Things were tight and they both knew he wasn't sliding in so easily nor did they usually do much that deep. "Just rock for a minute"

"Mmmmm" Eddie rubbed over her "ahhhhhhhh" He held her at the hip and one hand on her shoulder enjoying her emencly.

"Baby" He called when Janet leaned against his chest using her feet to propel the motion until she was quiet sure Eddie was going to pass her and all he could do was hold on to her. Janet sat up straight and then let Eddie have some control which he did but somewhere after that when she was turning around to face him they managed to share the work. Eddie knew he didn't need to be pounding into her like that out of sheer respect for her being pregnant but she was practically begging him for it and he was going to trust she knew what she could handle.

"Ignore it, baby " Eddie mumbled as they met against each others force.

"What" Janet asked as Eddie kissed over her body not hearing what he said. She didn't figure any one would actually call unless it was important but they were busy and who ever it was could wait at the moment all she wanted was his lips pressed against her skin and they both fumbled to silence the phone only to knock it and the coffee to the ground.

"Janet, I'm not interrupting am I" they froze realizing it answered and went to speakerphone. Lana didn't realize what she heard wasn't static.

"Lana, no we were just ………." Eddie put his finger to Janet's mouth grinning so mischievously and Janet began to rock in his lap quietly forcing him to try to hide his pleasure. Lana didn't do anything but make it feel better by causing them to go from hard to soft.

"What's wrong" Eddie asked his mom holding onto Janet as she moved

"Nothing I just……" "I tried to tell her not to call" Eddie could hear Sully in the background

"Janet lied, your interrupting so call back in a couple of hours and hey do yourself a favor and make sure you hang up the phone. We dropped mine and I can't reach it right now to hang up" He never even took his lips off of her kissing in between his question and his mom's answer as well as while he was telling her to hang up.

"Real funny Eddie" Lana thought he was picking. Eddie and Janet thought she hung up after that.

"Hold on a second baby" Eddie told Janet as he pulled a pillow out from behind his back "Now that's what I'm talking about" he added starting to thrust into her again

"Edward, it's really not funny" Lana scolded him and he never even stopped.

"Shhh, be still" Janet whispered surprised she hadn't hung up.

"unnnuhhhh" Eddie replied rocking Janet back and forth on his lap by her hips as he shook his head no "She'll learn" he said back. Both easily overhead

"Lana, he's not ……" Eddie silenced her again by pushing deep into her

"If my wife has to get up so I can reach the damn phone to hang it up…." Eddie threatened his mom

"Your going to do what" She still didn't believe he wasn't playing around

"Hold on another ten seconds and you're going to find out" Eddie wasn't joking

"I don't care if you are married and on your honeymoon, having sex until your to weak to walk you still better watch your mouth when your talking to me"

"Hey, mom can I tell you something and you actually believe me for once"

"What Eddie"

"I love you I really do but right now you are seriously putting a damper on me being able to love on Janet so will you please hang up the phone because I'm telling you the truth I really can't reach it without having to stop making love to my wife"

"Janet is he serious"

"Lana, I swear to you right now I'm sitting in his lap in a lounge chair in the back yard and the only way we can get to the phone is if I get up and he's not going to let me" Eddie couldn't believe Janet told his mother such specifics. It just turned him on more as he really enjoyed the position.

"Call me when you get done with him" Janet laughed

"What am I a piece of meat, now" Eddie asked as Lana had barely hung up the phone before Janet began to climax

"You can be whatever you want to be right now, baby" He got her to moan out the words

"The only thing I want to be is inside of you" He felt her body begin to tighten around him.

Eddie slid the straps of her gown down lower on her shoulders affording him a better view as he held her breast. "I want to feel it with you" he whispered when she looked at him questioning as to ask why now.

"You're going to need more than that" Janet knew it would take a mega dose of something to send him over instantly and she didn't have time to wait for him so she quickly wiggled free from the top of her gown about the time she called out to him.

"Eddie, come with me baby" She bent forward and kissed him full on the mouth tangling her tongue with his and it was enough to get him started. She was half way through when he started to release as he leaned forward taking her nipple into his mouth the entire time he filled her.

The sun had just come up all the way "That's one way to make the Rooster crow" Eddie joked first thinking he was a little to vulgar when she quickly dismounted him but then realized she was sick.

-------------------------------------------------------

"You okay" He asked grabbing his phone and heading back inside after her giving little thought to his less than fluid free state. He was more concerned with making sure she was okay.

"Yeah, I'm sorry. I know we've got to go home shortly and I ruined our last morning"

"You didn't ruin anything. Go lay down. I'll get everything together and then we can go home, you can put on your ratty pajamas and we'll spend the day in the bed or on the couch just figuring out everything we need for the baby." Eddie kissed her forehead

"I'm sorry I almost threw up on you"

"It's fine you didn't and it might have just been worth it anyway" He snuggled her in close and touched the tip of her nose. Janet pouted out her bottom lip and Eddie kissed her passionately. "Now go lay down or you'll be in a hospital gown. " Eddie started to clean him self up while Janet was rinsing her mouth.

"Baby, you're bleeding?"

"What?"

"There's was blood, baby" Eddie picked her up carrying her to the bed

-----------------------------------------------

When they finally made it home Janet wanted to relax in those pajamas Eddie talked about. Reality was setting in and when they made it to the door Eddie took her away from some of it.

"Don't you dare" He told her as she started to open the door

"It's my door Eddie I'm pretty sure I can open it without hurting myself" He quickened his step to the porch

"It's our door now and your not walking through it" He sat her small bag and purse down on the porch

"Ohhh, no your not" She backed up from him

"Yes I am" she shook her head at him as he stepped closer to her

"This would be one of those putting my foot down moments and I am whether you like it or not" He started to pick her up but Janet put her arm out to stop him.

"You're not talking me out of it"

"Okay, but please don't bang my head into anything or trip and drop me" She really was worried about hitting her head again.

"I promise" Eddie picked her up and after a brief bout of indecisiveness over wanting to be on the couch or the bed Eddie put her down in his lap in the chair.

"Honey, we're home" They just looked at each other trying to breathe again,

------------------------------------------
