Chapter 12

"A Good Surprise"


"Are you sure you'll be okay without me?"

"I'll be fine, I swear. Plus you'll be home tomorrow. I can make it through a day without you."

Randy lets go of his carry on bag as he pulls Drea close to him, in a tight hug. "But I won't be alone." Aundrea shrugs as he gives her another tight hug in the middle of the airport. "I love you."

"I love you too."

"Don't work yourself too hard cleaning the house for Thanksgiving." Drea smiles up at him as he pushes a few strands of hair out of her face.

She takes one of his hands and plays with his fingers a little bit. "I'll try not to." Randy smiles and shakes his head as he watches his girlfriend. He leans down and rests his forehead against hers, before capturing her lips with his.

The kiss slowly becomes more passionate as they announce the boarding of Randy's flight. After a few seconds her pulls back and stands upright, showing how he towers over her by about a foot. "Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything. I love you. John, Dave and I will see you tomorrow around 11."

She nods and leans up for another quick kiss. When Randy pulls back, he smiles down at her before reaching onto the floor and grabbing his bag. On the way back up to a standing position, he gives Drea's belly a quick kiss.


Aundrea pulls into the driveway of her home as she sees Christy's car parked in the driveway. She parks her Range Rover inside the garage before stepping out and walking up the wooden steps into the back hallway where the washer and dryer are. She opens the door to the kitchen and sees Jay and Christy sitting at the island in the middle of the kitchen. "Well this is a surprise, a good one though."

"Well, since Christy hates traveling alot in one week, we decided to come a little early."

"Good, 'cuz I would have been extremely bored. I know, it's only one day without Randy, but it gets so boring and lonely in this house." Aundrea places her purse down on the counter as she walks over and takes a seat next to Christy at the island as Christy pours her a cup of hot chocolate.

Drea places it to her lips and takes a small sip. "So how are things with Mr. Orton?"

"Okay. Alot better than I would have expected."

Drea smies a little as she places her hands around the coffee mug. "Is he excited to be a daddy?"

Aundrea smiles brighter and nods as she takes another sip of her drink. "Yeah, he was in the baby's room the other night with the sonogram and he seems so excited. And don't tell him I told you this, but he almost cried when we got home."

"See Chris, I told you Orton was a girly-man." Christy slowly turns from Aundrea back to Jay as she smiles at him, but quickly hits him on the arm. A quiet 'yelp' comes out of his mouth as the girls smile at each other and try not to start laughing.

Christy starts giggling a little bit, as does Drea. "Who's the girly-man now?" Jay puts on his 'sad puppy dog face' as Christy rolls her eyes and turns back to Aundrea. "He's been acting like a three year old all week, especially the drive here."

"If you guys have any laundry you want washed, just grab one of the baskets by the washer and fill it, since I have to finish Randy's."


"Hello?"

"Hey babe."

Drea leans back against the wall across from the washing machine. "Hey you, what's up?"

"Not too much. The guys and I just left the gym and are on the way to grab something to eat. What are you up to, gorgeous?"

"Doing your laundry. Babe, I don't think you wear all of this."

"I'm pretty sure I do." Drea puts the top down on the washer machine and turns it on as she opens the door of the dryer. She grabs all of the clothes in there and places it in one of the baskets. She picks it up and carries it into the kitchen, where she sees Jay pushing Christy up against the counter, tickling her. "What's all that noise, babe."

"We're having a huge party." She rolls her eyes and lets out a little laugh as she picks up the newspaper on the table and hits Jay on the butt with him."Jay and Christy are here. They decided to come down a little early since they don't have to be at the show."

"We just pulled up in front of the cafe."

"BAR!"

Aundrea rolls her eyes and waits for Randy's explanation. She can hear him yelling at John in the background. "It's not an actual bar you dickhead. It only says that cuz you can sit at the bar and order food. They don't sell alcohol here, dumbass." Drea tries her hardest not to laugh, but she fails and starts laughing. "Sorry babe, I promise it's a cafe."

"It is, believe me, sis."

"Well, go have fun with the boys."

"I will. And just so you know, those giggling fits you get into, make me not wanna get off this phone."

"Okay, hunnie, you're being weird, now. Call me tonight after the taping. I Love you."

"Love you too, babe."


"So why are we out shopping?

Aundrea parks her Range Rover in the parking lot of an expensive looking dinnerware store. "I need new plates and whatnot for Thursday, and I decided we could come out and get everything while Jay is tuned into ESPN."

"Good idea. He'd probably break everything in the store."

The two women get out of the car and start walking across the parking lot. Drea pulls onto her sweatshirt as they reach the entrance. "God, I just want to scream at them and be like 'here I am, take your goddamn pictures'. Freakin' paparazzi are so annoying."

"You're a celebrity, and you're pregnant. I don't know what to tell you, Aun. They know you aren't married so that makes their false stories more interesting." Christy holds up a plate and shows it to Drea, who shrugs and continues looking around the store.

"Well, they can go and pick on someone else." Aundrea looks up and smiles at Christ as she points out a set to Christy who smiles and nods.


"Where were you girls?"

"We told you we were going to the store, and stopping to get food on the way home. Take this, Mr. ESPN." Christy smiles and hands him two bags from Baja Fresh as she grabs a bag from Aundrea.

They bring the bags from the store downstairs to where the table is going to be set up. They place the bags down in the corner of the empty room, which is next to the blue/ water themed viewing room, which has the cinema like seats, which are two person couches with drinks holders on the end, and a huge TV mounted on the wall. "Do you wanna start setting up?"

Drea shakes her head and leans back against the wall. "Not yet, 'cuz when Jodi comes over tomorrow with the girls, Kelsey asked if they could bring Cheyanne with them." Aundrea points to a photo of her six-year-old neice, Kelsey, as well as her 3 year old neice, Krissy, Dave's daughters next to their Boston terrier, Cheyeanne.

Christy smiles as she looks at the wall of pictures in the empty 'hang-out' sit around room. "So who all's coming?"

"Jodi and the girls are coming tomorrow, as well as Bryn, Michael, Ariana and Autumn. Then Nathan and Jen are coming tomorrow night as well as Connor, Meygan and Gregory."

"Are you sure you're gunna have enough room?"

"Nate and Jen are staying at Randy's parents. Connor and Meg have the green room upstairs, which has enough room for Greg's crib. Jodi and Dave get the blue room, and the girls get their room, both on the top floor. Bryn and Mike have the orange room on my floor, which definately has enough room for their two cribs. John and Kat get the turquoise room, Kat's favorite."

"You had a really good idea giving color themes to each room."

"Well, with 5 guest bedrooms, I just figure it would be alot easier. Let's go upstairs and eat lunch since Jay probably started already."


Chapter Done.

Sorry it took me so long to update the story. Between the one-shots I posted, and musical practice and homework, and everything else, like the Patriots getting screwed in the Playoffs, updating slipped my mind lol. Plus, ooh, I might be getting a job like this week lol, since I need money and all for Philidelphia. Oh yeah. For like 4-5 days in April, like the 20th or the 21st I leave for Philidelphia, for the band trip. I'm gunna bring my notebooks with me and continue the stories on the bus ride, so I should have a good amount to update when I come home.

Also, I've had to be very sneaky to get out and go see my boyfriend, who got busted by his parents last night for having 2 empty Smirnoff bottles in his room. His mom is strict to no end, though. It's only until Friday, so I'll live. She's letting him off the hook so we can go to the 'Black & White Affair' our Junior class is holding. Copy of Laguna Beach. I think so.

Anyhoo, REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW. and if you have any ideas of baby names, where this story should go, etc. ANY THING for this story. dont hesitate to tell me. either in a review or on AIM: AMunz0968 or MSN: XD XD
