*~Okay first of all, I want to thank all of you who reviewed, ^_^, and I
hope that you all enjoy the next chapter. After this there will probably
only be one more, but if I don't get enough reviews, it's highly unlikely
that I'll continue with this story. REVIEW!!!!*~
"Mmmmm..." Evy mumered in her sleep, and rolled over and felt a light shiver go through her still half asleep body. She snuuggled closer to the large bulky object of warmth curled up next to her, and smiled in her half asleep state of presence.
Feeling Evy press up against him in her sleep, Rick sucked in a deep breath and his eyes popped out. Shit. he thought to himself, trying to figure a way to worm out of her bed and sneak back into his own bedroom, without waking her up. But then looking down at her, he saw something that made him soften into putty. She smiled. She gave a little gentle, sleepy smile as she cuddled up beside him.
Rick smiled at this, and leaned down to kiss the top of her head. Her curls were so soft, and felt so lovely, he tenderly rested his head just above hers on the pillow and wrapped an arm around Evy's still sleeping form. He intended to stay for only a moment longer..just one more moment..one more damned moment...
Well quite a few damned more moments went by, and Evy begain to stir awake. She rolled over onto her other side, and felt something srprawled across her. Sleeply, she cracked open one eye, to find an arm, specifically Rick's arm, wrapped around her, holding her tiny form close to his.
Twisting around, she sucked in a deep breath and then sudenly sprang her head upward, only to result in her head smashing into Rick's chin and him waking up in a sudden fit of pain and Evy leaping back to the other side of the bed.
After he held his chin in his hand, moaned, cussed, and did all other things that often come along with sudden pain, he merly stared at her. His little Evy sitting there, her arms crossed in front of her chest, her little legs crossed daintly at the ankle, her curls pushed back behind her ears.
"Rick what do you think you were doing?" she shrieked, and looked at him with such a mix of irritation and hurt that Rick wanted nothing more then to sink into the floor and disapear.
He painfully opened his jaw up several times before finally managing to blurt out, "Umm, I wanted to check on you...It was cold uhh, Umm.."
He glanced back up at her, and saw the fire in her eyes. And it was't that hot-sexy-fire that he had seen in her eyes that night...Well ahem anyways, it wasn't the type of fire he was hoping for, it was the type that scared him shitless.
Two hours later
Wrapped up on the sofa, Evy pulled her heavy quilt higher up around her, and rested her head against the pillow. It was one of the few big arguements her and Rick had had, and she wanted nothing more then to cry and scream and just fall into a bottomless hole, but unfortunaley she had already done the first one, had too much pride to do the second, and the third wasn't an option.
Blinking back the few tears that still hung in her eye lashes, she ran her hand along the gentle curve of her lips, and remembered that day yesterday, was it only yesterday? it seemed like so long ago, when she had been wrapped up into his arms and he had promised to come home to her and he had kissed her beautiful full lips..
She slipped her hand under her blouse again, and let it rest on her slowly swelling tummy. She couldn't believe it, she had blurted out about the pregnancy in the midst of their arguement, she could feel herself blushing even then. What kind of woman let the father of her; theiir, unborn child know about the baby in the middle of a fight? She couldn't believe how foolish she had been.
She hadn't known what to expected him to do after her blurting it out like that, but he hadn't run out and gotten drunk or yelled at her, he merly looked at her silence and then she had run out of the room crying. He had come after her, and she knew it, she had seen him standing there, in the doorway to the living room just watching her little form scrunch up under that huge god damn blanket. But he couldn't think of anything to say, so he merly walked slowly back upstairs to their room.
But now as her tired eyes almost drooped off back to a sleepless slumber, she felt the sofa sink down a little and felt someone crawl under the quilt next to her.
Tenderly brushing a curl out of her still barely damp face, Rick kissed her cheek and whispered, "I love you Evelyn, everything that I've been doing lately has all been for you, I know you don't understand it just yet, but when I can, I'll explain it all to you, I promise. And I want you to know, that I'd like nothing more then to raise our baby together, and to marry you and to grow old with you." and with that he tenderly kissed her cheek again, and waited for her response.
Twisting around beneath the blanket, Evy pressed herself against Rick's muscular chest, and thought for a moment. She knew how hard it was for Rick to express his feelings through words like that, and she knew how lucky she was to have him. With that in mind, she gently kissed the bottom of his neck and whispered, "I love you too Rick, and I'm sorry about earlier.." she would of gone on, but instead Rick roughly raised her face up to his and kissed her long and gentle on the lips, and whispered huskily, "Shhh, sweetheart just rest."
*~Okay I know this is a shitty chapter, I wrote it in home room, again. *sheepish smile* If I get enough reviews, i'll write another little fluff chapter, heh, but if not then I guess the story will just kinda die out there, heh. If they seem a little out of charechter, thats coz I wrote it in about fifteen minutes time, while my teacher was going on and on and on... Anyways, PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!*~
