**First of all, I want to apologize for the EXTREME lack of updates. My
home computer was so messed up that I had to take it in and get it fixed,
and work was so busy that I wasn't able to work on this at work. PLEASE
DON'T BE TOO MAD!! I promise, now that everything is back to normal, there
won't be that long of a wait EVER AGAIN!! I'm so sorry! Please continue to
read and review! Thanks!**
Trish started walking around the arena looking for Melissa. She knew that she needed to find her for a couple different reasons. One, she needed to see if she was going to go on the road with them for the week or if she was going to go home, and two, she wanted to make sure she was ok. Premature labor was not something to mess around with. Trish walked around the back area and began seeing if anyone had seen them.
Randy leaned down and gave Melissa a long, lingering kiss. It made Melissa's heart race. Melissa wrapped her arms around him and kissed him back. The problem was that they couldn't get very close due to the growing size of Melissa's belly, but Randy made sure that it wasn't a problem. Randy leaned her back against the wall and the two passionately made out with each other.
For as much time as they spent together, they hadn't slept together. They had fooled around, but he wanted to wait until the time was right. And, he had this innate fear of somehow hurting the baby. But he was a little nervous to admit that to her. He knew it was a silly fear, but he hadn't been with anyone who was pregnant before.
He slid his hands up her shirt and started to caress her. He ran his fingertips lightly over her aroused nipples and watched her shiver. He kissed her neck and traced his fingertips across her chest and started to reach back to unhook her bra when he felt something on his stomach.
Melissa gasped and was stifling a giggle. Randy looked at her, "What?"
"The baby kicked you." She said trying not to laugh. "I guess he didn't like getting leaned on."
Randy rubbed her tummy, "Hey little guy, calm down in there. No beating me up already."
They both laughed and held each other. They heard someone knock at the door.
Randy got up and answered it and Trish was standing there, "What are you guys doing up here? I've been trying to find you forever!" Then Trish stopped and thought about it for a second, "On second thought.don't tell me what you guys are doing up here. Is Missy dressed?" Trish asked with a smile.
"Patricia!!" Melissa called out. "You can come in."
Trish walked in and headed over by her. "How are you doing? Are you feeling ok?"
"Yes, I'm feeling fine." Melissa said with a smile.
"Well, are you going to stay with Randy for the rest of the week, or do you want me to drive you home? I'm travelling with Stacy, so I wanted to make sure you weren't stranded out here." Trish said to her.
"I need your advice Trish." Melissa said to her. "The doctor wants me to start home schooling because of the pre-term labor, but I feel fine, and I really want to be there as much as possible. Everything is fine there, they all know that I'm carrying the baby for you because you can't and they're really good about accommodating to me. What do you think I should do?"
Trish didn't know what to say. She knew that school was really important to Melissa, and she was helping to coach the sports that she used to do, but medically it seemed a little risky. "Well Melissa, I would say listen to your body. You didn't feel good all day when you went into labor right?"
"Right."
"So, if you wake up one morning and you just don't feel right, call in and stay in bed with your feet elevated drinking liquids. But, if you feel ok, then I think you would be ok to go to school, just don't be too active physically while you're there." Trish advised.
Melissa gave her a hug, "Can Randy and I have a minute, and I'll meet you at the car?"
"Sure thing." Trish said. On her way out she playfully punched Randy and ran outside.
Melissa walked over to Randy, "Do you think I'm making the right decision?"
"I think that you know your body, and if you didn't feel that it was ok, then you wouldn't do it." Randy reassured her.
Melissa smiled, "You always know how to make me feel better." And she held him.
He rubbed her back and kissed her. "Well, I'll be out to your house as soon as I can."
"Sounds good."
He slipped his hand into hers and they walked out towards the parking lot.
Trish found Dave talking to Andrew (Test). "Well I found her, and she's going to go home so she can go back to school, so I'm meeting her out at my car. Have you guys seen Stacy?"
"Yeah, she'll meet you at your car, she had to talk to Stephanie about something." Andrew replied.
Dave looked at Andrew, "Well it was good seeing you again, and I'll talk to you later." He then looked at Trish, "Let's head out to your car."
They walked outside together and Dave helped Trish load the luggage into her car. "Dave, this is so odd not being on the same show. I'm going to miss you."
Dave held her, "I'm going to miss you too. But don't worry, we won't let this stand in our way. Just remember that times change, people may change, but love conquers all."
Trish smiled and had tears in her eyes, "I love you Dave."
"I love you too Trish." Dave said to her. He held her again and they kissed.
Randy and Melissa got out to the parking lot and seen Dave and Trish kissing. Randy squeezed Melissa's hand. He didn't know how she felt about the whole thing, and they never really talked about Dave or her feelings regarding him a lot, so Randy just wanted her to know that he was there for her.
She squeezed it back and looked towards him. He pulled her close and held her. "I'll miss you."
"I"ll miss you too." She replied laying her head on his shoulder.
He tilted her head towards his and kissed her sweetly. "I'll call and see how you're doing after you get home tomorrow."
She nodded, "Be careful."
"Don't worry about me, I'll make sure that I'm careful." Randy said to her. "You make sure to be careful also."
She laughed, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. I won't let anything happen to him."
They kissed again and he slipped his hand into hers and they walked over by Dave and Trish.
"You all set?" Trish asked Melissa.
"Yup, I'm ready." Melissa replied.
Stacy walked over by them and squealed. "Melissa, you look so cute!! How much longer?"
"10 weeks and counting." Melissa replied.
The girls all got in the car and said goodbye and drove off.
**Sorry, I got a little carried away, I will have another chapter up today to try and play catch up for making you guys wait so long. Please forgive me!! Thanks! Please read and review!!**
