Addison's POV

*clink* pause.

*clink* pause.

*clink*

My head snaps up and I see that the clock says 5:30 am. I groan and shove my face into the pillow.

*clink*

"What in the hell is that noise?" I mutter to myself, sitting up in bed. Finally awake enough to figure out where it was coming from.

*clink*

My head turns to the window and quickly shuffle to that side of the bed and over to it.

*clink*

A pebble smacks the glass in front of my face. I open the window and stick my head out. I see my green haired boyfriend standing below in the darkness.

"Zed? What're you doing?" I whisper yell. I suddenly realize the rush of relief that washes over a feeling of anxiety in my chest. "Are you ok babe?"

He doesn't even reply before climbing up the vine covered lattice up to my bedroom. I step back to let him in and am immediately wrapped in a tight embrace as soon as he's through the threshold.

"Oh Addy, I've been a wreck all night." He said, petting the hair on the back of my head gently. I force him back enough to look at his face. Even in the low lighting, I can see his darkened circles under his eyes and unruly hair, like he's been pulling at it in every possible direction. My brows furrow with worry.

"What's going on Zed?" I ask. His eyes look so tired like he doesn't even have the energy to lie to me.

"I wasn't able to get ahold of you after I got home and was so worried that I haven't slept all night." He admitted, pulling my body flush against his. My face softens and I pull him down to press a firm kiss to his lips, his body relaxes with the contact.

"I'm sorry baby. I fell asleep." I whisper centimeters from his lips. He chuckles and closes the distance again with a searing, needy kiss. I walk him backwards without breaking their contact. His legs hit the bed and fell backwards, taking me with him.

It feels like our bodies are just moving on instinct as we savor each other's taste. Our shirts peeled over our head, out pants slid down our legs. All while our tongues dance to the rhythm of our quickened heartbeats.

My legs are startled over his hips in the most intimate way and it sets a fire in my lower belly. I rock my hips along his length, even through the fabrics of our underwear, the sensation is incredible. His head falls back against the mattress with a groan of ecstasy.

I latch onto his neck and sucked on the sensitive skin, my hands sliding slowly up and down his sides and stomach.

"Fuck, Addy." He breathed.

Zed's body quivered under mine as I worshipped him. But before I knew what happened, he had me flipped over to pin me into the mattress, his mouth covering mine again and his hands removing the last remaining garments with urgent speed.

He unclasps my bra from the day before and frantically tried pulling it over my arms. As soon as it's off, I gently grab his face to make him look at me. His eyes are pleading and show his almost panicked emotion that's flared in my chest.

"I need you." He whimpered. The sound nearly breaking my heart.

"I've always been yours." I whisper as reassurance. I bring him down, giving him a slow and passionate kiss to show him all the love and support I have for him. He wraps his strong arms around my torso and holds me flush against him, like I might disappear if he lets go. I pull my legs up around his waist and with a slight shift of position he slides into me, taking my breath away.

Our movements are slow, but with no less passion. Our lips never losing connection, even if it's on a different patch of skin so the other can breath. I match his thrusts, the coil in my belly tightening. My breaths coming out in pants. Zed sounds just as worked up as I do between the kisses on my neck. I sift my fingers through his unruly hair, pulling his lips back to mine as our pace quickened. Then I pressed my forehead to his, squeezing my eyes shut to try and hold on a little longer.

"Ah, ah, Zed. I can't- I'm gonna- Ah! Zed. I love you. Zed!" I cry out as my climax hits and he's right with me.

"Mmm, Addy!" He moans out as his hips flex with his orgasm. "I love you so much baby." He breaths, feathering kisses across my face as my world tries to right itself from the intensity of that ending.

I giggle and kiss him back. These kisses soft and gentle, reflecting the 'after making love' endorphins coursing through my body. Zed turned us over so he could lay on his side, groaning from his exhaustion and pulling me in to cuddle.

I glance up over at the clock. It's only 6. My alarm isn't even supposed to go off for another half hour, I could let him power nap before we have to get up for school. Not that I could stop him. He was out like a light the second his head hit the pillow. I giggled and snuggled into his chest, just resting my eyes for the remained of my alarm time.

XxX

I wiggled my way out from under Zed's heavy arms and shut off my alarm a couple minutes before I was set to go off. He was snoring softly in his sleep so I wanted to give him the extra sleep that he'd missed last night while I took my shower.

I spent a few extra minutes just letting the hot water roll down my body, relaxing my muscles further. I washed my hair and hopped out to dry off.

As I'm running the towel down my arms, I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I turn to the side and can see the slightest bump forming on my lower belly. I rub the towel over it and then my bare hand.

It seems early to me to notice a bump, but I assume I'm just gaining a little extra weight. Knowing there's a little baby growing there makes me smile. I don't care if I gain weight anymore. I'll do whatever I have to to make sure this baby is healthy.

I finish drying off and wrap the towel around myself then exit the bathroom. Zed's still dead to the world. I smile fondly at how peacefully he's sleeping in my bed. I'm guessing he's comforted by my scent because he was now cuddling my pillow to his chest with his nose buried in it.

I know I need to wake him up but I hate waking him when I can feel how tired he is. I walk over to the bed side and lean in, pressing a gentle kiss to his forehead.

"Mmm." He groans, shoving his face further into my pillow as if it can block the world out. I roll my eyes and kiss him again.

"Hey." I greet quietly.

"Mmm." I get another groan in response. I lightly kiss down his face till I reach his lips, his respond willingly to mine when I kiss him. He cracks one eye open at me. I give him a soft smile.

"You gotta get up Zed." I tell him still in my quiet tone. He reaches a hand up and brushes a wet lock of hair that was clinging to my skin away then cups my cheek.

"Can't we just lay in bed all day?" He asked. I shake my head.

"We have school." I reply. He groans again and plops his head back onto my pillow. I giggle, standing up straight.

"I'll make you a deal." I start, he perks up at hearing my words and looks at me curiously. "If you get up, I'll make sure we can sneak to the Safe Room for a nap during lunch." He raises a brow then looks me up and down.

"Drop the towel and we have a deal." He counters. I smile cheekily at him and slowly untuck the towel piece that holding it up, letting it pool at my feet.

"Mmm. Now that's what I'm talking about." He says appreciatively, sitting up and kicking his legs over the side of the bed. My cheeks heat up, his own naked glory staring back at me and I can't help but feel turned on.

I take a few steps forward and lean down to capture his lips. His hands reach for my hips to bring me closer but I pull just out of his grip. His brows furrow in confusion until I kneel down in front of him. I look up at him through my lashes and take his already firm erection in my hand.

"You look mighty delicious this morning." I tease innocently, stroking my hand up and down his shaft. He smirks as a low growl rumbles in his throat.

"Oh yeah? I guess you wanna have some breakfast before school, huh?" He teased back. I giggle and lean forward to take his tip between my lips, swirling my tongue all the way around it. He moans and lets his head roll back, placing one hand in my wet hair. I support myself by placing my hands on his thighs and start a slow pace taking him deeper into my mouth.

"Yeah, Baby. Just like that." He encourages.

I take that as a self cue to up my game. I always love when I can make him come undone. I suddenly take as much of him as I can into my mouth, I vaguely hear Zed inhale sharply but my gage reflex threatening to flare. But I keep it in check, holding it there for another few seconds then emerging for a breath.

"Shit Addy. You about made me cum." He breaths, stroking my hair affectionately. I take that as a challenge and take him back into my mouth. His breathing has started coming out in pants as I keep a steady pace. His fingers have sifted through my locks an he assists me in finding a pace he likes with the slight pressure on my head.

But I don't stay steady for long, quickening my bobbing up and down. Zed tightens his grip in my hair and I know he's close. My mouth is watering. I hallow out my cheeks with a suck upwards.

Zed cries out almost silently as he explodes in my mouth. I hold him there until he's finished and swallow the salty fluid. He unfists my hair and pets it softly.

"Sorry Baby. I didn't give you a warning." He apologizes, pulling me up from between his legs to sit in his lap. I wipe my mouth of any remanent liquid on my lips then wrap my arms around his neck.

"I like it when you lose control of your body with me." I tease slyly. He chuckles and kisses me.

"It happens way more than I'd like." He agrees jokingly. I giggle and get up off him.

"Ok. Enough fooling around. We'll be late if we don't get ready." I say heading for my closet. I hear Zed sigh but also the shuffling of his clothing off the floor.

I pick out a navy blue dress with a white and pink floral patters that has a little bit of flow to it to conceal my baby bump and put on a blush cardigan, matching the pink in the flowers, over top to keep my arms warm from the nippy morning air outside. I use the full length mirror and comb my fingers through my hair, deciding on a braid rather than blowing it out today.

After putting on a pair of white wedge sandals, I head back into the bedroom. Zed's waiting patiently on the bed, still looking extremely tired with his dark circles under his eyes but trying his best to act like it wasn't bothering him.

"You look great babe!" He says enthusiastically. I smile and give him a little twirl. He chuckles and stands to pull me into a hug. "You sure you don't wanna just sleep for the rest of the day?" He asks hopefully.

"That's what you wanna do." I tease. "We have to go to school."

"Alright, alright." He sighs, heading for the window. "I'll meet you at the front door." He grumbles. I giggle and stop him before he can climb out, pulling him into a slow sweet kiss.

"I love you." I tell him softly. He smiles and gives me another peck.

"I love you more." He replies then hops out the window to climb down.

I hurry downstairs to the kitchen.

"Good morning, Sweetheart!" Mom greets happily.

"Morning Mom! Dad!" I greet.

"Hi Honey!" Dad replies still reading his paper and sipping his coffee.

"Do you want breakfast?" Mom asks. I skip around the island and scrounge through the cabinets.

"That's ok Mom. I'm gonna grab something for on the way. Don't wanna be late!" I explain, finding a box of breakfast bars and taking out three just as a knock comes from the door. "That must be Zed! I'll see you later!" I call, rushing out of the kitchen.

"Addy!" Mom yells, stopping my after I open the front door. "Don't make plans after school today! I made you a doctors appointment!" She informs me with a smile. I stiffen and Zed steps beside me to wrap a reassuring arm around my waist.

"Is it ok if I come along?" Zed asks.

"Well I would hope you'd be coming along!" She teased. "Have a good day at school!" She called as she walked back into the kitchen. Zed kissed the top of my head and led me outside.

"You ok?" He asks with mild concern. I nod and take a deep breath to calm my nerves.

"Yeah. I just hate the doctor's office." I admit. Though he already knows that since I'll wait till I feel half dead when I'm sick before I'll agree I need a doctor.

"It'll be different than a regular doctor visit. It's for the baby." He said, reaching over to place a hand on my belly. I put my hand over his and smile.

"Right. For the baby." I agree.

Suddenly we hear the blaring of a horn approaching us from behind, making both of us jump.

"Addison!" I hear Bucky calling. Just in time for us to turn, Bucky pulls up beside them and screeches to a halt. "What do you think you're doing?!" Be exclaimed angrily as he threw the van door open and marched around till he was right in front of the young couple. "Zed! How could you let her be walking to school in her condition?!" Bucky scolded. I immediately feel a wave of guilt wash over me.

"I, uh-" Zed stutters. I glance over and he looks like a kicked puppy, ashamed and hurt. My anger flares. Bucky reaches for my arm but I rip it out of his grasp.

"Apologize!" I demand. His expression shows his irritation.

"What are you talking about!" He argued.

"To Zed! You can't talk to him like that!" I glare at him.

"You shouldn't be-" He tries to start but I quickly interrupt.

"Walking is my choice! It's still really early in my pregnancy and I'm ok to walk! Unless you're a doctor who knows my body better than I do, you better start apologizing!" I yell.

Now it's Bucky's turn to look ashamed. I wrap both arms around Zed's torso and hug him tightly, never stopping my glares toward my cousin. He sighs with relief, wrapping his arm around me to return the gesture and kisses my head appreciatively. How could he possibly think I'd be mad at him?

"Ok, ok!" Bucky shouts, drawing our attention back. His face was in a pout and he would only give them glances. "I'm sorry. I was just concerned." He apologized. Zed laughed lightly.

"Its no big deal! I'm new at this too. I appreciate having your support to keep Addy and the baby healthy." Zed thanked, replacing his hand on my stomach and giving it a tender rub. I giggle and smile at my cousin finally.

"You're being 'Classic Bucky'. Over dramatic in the most obtrusive kind of way." I poked fun at him. He leered at me threateningly.

"Watch it Pipsqueak." He warned. Zed and I laugh before I quickly give Bucky a big hug.

"It's ok Buck! I'll forgive you this time!" I say, smiling with my sweetest smile mixed with the malice emanating off of me that sent a chill of fear down his spine.

"Riight." He agreed, then cleared his throat. "Anyways, I just got back in town last night. I just finished my semester and won't go back till after New Year's." My brows knit together in concern.

"Are you staying with your parents?" I ask. He bursts out in a laugh.

"Oh god no! I disowned those people the day I graduated high school!" He said as he walked back to the driver side door of his bright pink Bucky van. "You guys want a ride? We can talk on the way." He offered. I look up at Zed who gave me a shrug so we hop in the back seat.

"So who are you staying with? You know my parents would always let you stay at our house." I suggest. Bucky waved me off nonchalantly.

"Nah! I'm crashing between the Acey's houses. Their parents love me." He said proudly. I roll my eyes.

"Everybody loves you Bucky." I reply sarcastically.

"Shut up." He snaps with an empty threat. "So, what do you two have planned this week?" He asked.

"Addy has her first doctor's appointment today." Zed told him. I shot him a glare to which he shrugged and smirked.

"Ew, gross. I hate doctors." Bucky commented.

"I know, right?!" I exclaim, happy that he agrees with me. All of us laugh and it's not too long till we're in front of the school.

"Ah, the old stomping grounds." Bucky reminisced. Zed and I were already filing out of the van.

"We can hang out later this week if you want." I offer. Bucky scoffs.

"Well duh you're gonna hang out with my later this week! You're gonna be hanging out with me for a month and a half till I go back to school!" He told me like it was a known fact that shouldn't be questioned. I roll my eyes at him playfully then turn to head into the school, Zed right beside me and laces our fingers as we walk. A smile creeping along the corners of my lips.

It never ceases to amaze me how great it feels to have him beside me. I feel like I can take on the world if we're together.

Nothing can bring me down.
