Chapter 4
Laying in bed, the bustling El train could be heard in the background intertwined with the busy streets. Abby lay still next to her sleeping boyfriend. The alarm clocked blinked three twenty and she was thinking about the day's events. I had told Carter that I loved him, and he asked if I wanted to move in with him. Any other relationship moving this fast would have freaked her out totally, but it just felt right with John. She started thinking about the future, about marriage, marriage to Carter. Abigail Carter, Abigail Lockhart Carter, she went through numerous names. She imagined her and Carter living together, cooking dinner, going out to parties. More of Gamma's banquets that conclude in criminal events, She giggled at the memory of her slashing Richard's tires, falling over and setting off the car alarm. "What's so funny?" She didn't realize Carter had turned over and has been watching her for a few minutes now. "Hey, sorry did I wake you?" Abby replied "No, I was just watching you think" "yeah!" she asked raising her eyebrows "And was it fun?" "You have four wrinkles that wrinkle when you think" "Well, as long as there's no other wrinkles anywhere, I'm good" "What were you thinking about" Carter asked smoothing away a few strand of hair across her forehead "Nothing much" "Must have been" Rolling her eyes the way that only she can she replied "I was thinking about Gamma's party and how I slashed 'Dick's' tires. And also that I could imagine a future with you in it" "I hope it would include me, if I'm gonna put up with you stealing all the covers at night" Abby slapped Carter on the chest "Ouch!" "You baby, that didn't hurt. This might though" Abby flicked Carter's ear "Right!" Carter jumped on Abby and started to tickle her. "No, John, please I need to go to the bathroom" "Hope you don't pee your pants!" Laughing he continued to tickle her "Oh please stop it it's coming!" Abby laughed so hard. She felt Carter ease off her long enough so she could get up and run to the bathroom. "Thank you Carter, just in time, young man. There would have been trouble if we had a spillage! I had enough of that to clean up today at work" Carter laughed in between yawning. He realized how tired he was as he rested his eyes until Abby came back to bed. After five minutes Abby turned off the bathroom light and climbed back into bed, to see a sleeping Carter. Abby nuzzled up close to her loved one and fell into slumber.
