Chapter 5

Dave woke up and looked down at Krystal and smiled.Then his phone rang. "Hello?" Dave said as softly as possible. "Dave? You up?" H's voice said on the other side. Dave gently laid Krystal on the bed. "Yeah..I'm up." "Well...where are you?" H asked,sounding very impaitent. "I'm at the house.Why?" Dave asked,wiping his eyes and yawning. "Cuz Ric and I are going out to breakfast and we wanted you to come with us." H said,still sounding very impatient. "Well..I was actually going to go back to sleep." Dave lied,wishing H would hang up. "Oh..well in that case,Ric and I can wait til you get up..again.." H said,sounding as if he were settling for less than he wanted to. Dave said whatever and told H he was going back to sleep. "Why?" H asked. "Cuz I'm tired." Dave said,hanging up the phone and turning it off. Dave laid back down next to Krystal. She rolled over to face him with a smile. "Morning." Krystal said,sleepily. Dave smiled and said, "Morning...Sleep well?" Krystal yawned,stretched,and nodded. Dave smiled and held her close. "You sleep well?" she asked him,looking up at him questoningly. He nodded. "Baby?" "Yeah?" "I've got something to tell you." Dave sat up and looked at her. Krystal laid her head on his chest and looked at him. "I'm not pregnant." Dave looked down at her and smiled.Dave looked down at her and smiled. "Actually,I was kinda hoping you were..." Dave said,running his fingers gently through her hair. Krystal,still looking up at him,moved closer to him. "You did?" she saked,looking confused. Dave nooded and pulled Krystal to the sitting position. Krystal looked at Dave and hugged him. "Why do you wish I was?" she had to know why. Dave just shook his head and looked away. Krystal pulled his face to face hers. "Why?" she asked again,looking him. He took one look in the her blue eyes and melted. "Y-you remember how...happy I was when Jasmyne was born?" he asked,still gazing into her eyes. She nodded,getting lost in his brown eyes. "I wanted to experience that..that...happiness again...that..that rush. I mean,not that you and Jasmyne don't make me happy or give me a rush," Dave added quickly,not wanting to open old wounds. Krystal understood and smiled. "Maybe it isn't too late." Krystal said,pulling Dave on top of her and smiled.
