Chapter Fifty Six:
Colby pulled his rental car in front of Brooklyn and Jon's house. He only had about an hour and a half before Sarah got back to her apartment so he needed to hurry up. He had been able to get time off so he could go to Hartford and spend Sarah's birthday and valentine's day with her in four days. He had to leave after the trial because he had a couple shows but was happy they agreed to give him some time off.
Getting out, he headed to the front door. Knocking, he waited a few minutes before the door opened revealing Brooklyn with J.J in her arms. They had been secluded in their house since the trial three days ago so he was sure they were going to be surprised to see him.
"Hey Colby" she greeted, a little confused. She knew he was in town but didn't expect him to come over, especially without Sarah.
"Uh, hey. Can I come in, I want to talk to you and Jon about something." Brooklyn nodded and stepped aside, letting him in before closing the door. He followed her into the living room where he saw Jon playing with Amelia, who was laying on the couch cooing.
"Who was at the door" Jon asked, not looking up from their daughter.
"Colby and he wants to talk to us." Jon looked up, seeing his best friend standing behind his wife. He was surprised to see him here, especially since he thought he'd be with Sarah.
"Where is Sarah? I thought you two are never apart" he teased, earning a whack to the chest from Brooklyn. Colby stifled a laugh as Jon scowled and rubbed where she hit.
"What do you say?" Jon kept the scowl on his face.
"Sorry" he muttered. Colby let out a little laugh as Brooklyn sat down next to Jon, who despite having been hit, picked Amelia up and wrapped an arm around Brooklyn keeping his family close.
"Its alright. She was called into work for a few hours, she is actually why I wanted to talk to you guys."
"Why what's going on? I swear to god Lopez if you plan on hurting her" Brooklyn started, her voice raising slightly.
Colby's eyes bulged slightly.
"I'm not I swear."
"Easy tiger" Jon said, kissing her head. Brooklyn took a deep breath.
"Sorry, instinct. So what do you wanna talk to us about?"
"Well, I want to do something special for her birthday and I want all her friends to celebrate. I wondered if you guys would be up to hosting a little surprise party for her here."
"You do know, she isn't a fan of celebrating it right?" Colby nodded.
"Yea, but I wanna surprise her and I know she doesn't get to see everyone a whole lot so I thought it would be a good time." Brooklyn smiled at Colby. Maybe the two toned superstar wasn't so stupid after all.
"When" Jon asked.
"Valentine's day. I thought having it on her actual birthday would be nice."
"But what if everyone has plans Colby?"
"I thought of that already. I called everyone I could think of and their plans aren't until later that night. Please you guys, I really wanna do something nice for her."
Jon and Brooklyn looked at each other.
"I don't have plans for us until that night so I'm okay with it."
"What are we doing" Brooklyn asked, not realizing they had plans. She figured they would just spend it at home.
"Its a surprise." Brooklyn rolled her eyes as Jon laughed.
They looked back at Colby who were giving them pleading eyes.
"Okay, just tell me how many people are coming." Colby let out a big sigh of relief.
"Thank you guys so much. I will call later with the head count. Right now, I gotta go grab her birthday presents."
"What did you get her?"
"I haven't decided yet, I need to go look." Brooklyn shook her head.
"Men" she said, making them both scowl.
"What?" Brooklyn just gave a small smile.
"Nothing its just us women get our important shopping done early while you guys do it the day before."
"Hey, its four days before" Colby defended himself. Brooklyn laughed.
"And I'll have you know, I got your gift last week" Jon said, defending himself. Brooklyn just laughed.
"Alright, its all men but you two, happy?" Both nodded, making her shake her head.
"Alright, I will call you later Brook. Bye babies" he said, kissing Amelia and J.J's cheek.
"Bye Colbs" Jon said as his best friend waved before leaving.
"So what are we doing" Brooklyn asked as he left. Jon looked at his wife and smirked.
"I told you, its a surprise granted it would be even more special if we could have sex." He looked at the twins.
"You guys couldn't wait another month?" Brooklyn giggled and slapped his chest, making him laugh.
/*/
Brooklyn started to slowly stir from her peaceful sleep. She opened her eyes slightly, closing them again when the sun shined through the windows. Reaching a hand up, she rubbed her tired eyes before opening them fully. She stretched out, smiling a little. She hadn't slept that good since the twins were born. She was grateful that they had only woken up three times last night. Once to be fed and twice for a clean diaper.
Done stretching, she turned to the side, expecting to see Jon but all she was an empty bed. She furrowed her eyebrows slightly. It was unlike Jon to wake up before her. She was about to get up and go see where he was when Moxley ran into the room, Jon closely following. She smiled at him and it grew when she saw he was holding a tray filled with food.
"Morning babe" he said, walking over to the bed.
"Good morning. What is all this?" Jon smiled as he carefully got on the bed.
"Well, I woke up a while ago since J.J needed a diaper change and instead of going back to sleep, I decided to treat my beautiful and amazing wife to a special Valentine's day breakfast." Brooklyn's smile grew.
"Well don't I have the best husband in the world." She saw a hint of a blush cover Jon's cheeks as he handed her the plate.
"I wouldn't say that, you haven't tasted it yet." Brooklyn giggled slightly before digging into her food.
She knew Jon didn't have as much culinary knowledge as her but it still made her heart melt that he tried. Yea, he couldn't make pancakes from scratch and he probably couldn't make a full three course fancy meal without probably burning something but she didn't care. She just cared about the sentiment behind it. She couldn't believe how lucky she was to have him.
"So, what do you think" he asked, breaking her from her thoughts. She turned to him, swallowing the food that was in her mouth before answering.
"Its delicious." She could see Jon visibly relax.
"Thank god. I thought I would have killed you with my cooking by now." Brooklyn giggled and shook her head.
"Your cooking isn't bad Jon." Jon raised his eyebrow slightly.
"If its not pre-made I usually burn it Brook. I'm surprised I haven't given you food poisoning or something." Brooklyn almost rolled her eyes at his exaggeration.
"That's not true. That day you made me food after we fought about Randy was good."
"Yea, because I watched it like a hawk. I almost didn't cook it all the way but when I cut into the first piece, it was raw. Thank Google for telling me to put it back in the oven." Brooklyn giggled.
"You know, if you want to improve your skills I could give you some lessons."
Jon just nodded, digging into his own food.
"So what are we doing today" Brooklyn asked as she took a sip of her juice he brought her.
"Surprise" Jon said, a mouthful of waffle. Brooklyn sighed. She had been asking him the past two days but still he said nothing.
They ate in a comfortable silence. When they were done, Jon put their dishes back on the tray and set it at the end of the bed. Turning around, his arms were full with his wife as she placed her lips on his.
Jon let out a little groan as he placed his hands in her hair. Their lips brushed against each other, their tongues coming out to play when Jon licked her lips. The kiss took both their breath's away.
"Happy Valentine's day" he said when they broke apart, breathing hard. Brooklyn smiled.
"Happy Valentine's day." Jon smiled and kissed her once more.
"When is everyone coming over?"
"Uncle Shawn is coming around noon, all Sarah's friends and other family are coming around that time too and Colby said he would bring her here around twelve thirty. I got the cake and her presents that need to be wrapped. Everyone else is bringing a dish." Jon nodded and rubbed her waist.
"Sucks we can't have sex today." Brooklyn smiled and rubbed his hand she was holding.
"I know, but we don't need sex to make today romantic."
Jon nodded.
"This surprise is romantic, right" she asked teasingly. Jon smiled and nodded.
"Yea. I actually surprised myself with it." Brooklyn laughed. Anyone that knew Jon knew he wasn't quite the romantic, until he met Brooklyn.
"I'm sure I will love whatever it is." Jon smiled and kissed her again. Before they could get lost in it, they heard the babies cooing over the baby monitor.
"Ooh, my babies" Brooklyn said, getting up. Jon laughed and followed her to the nursery.
"Morning my loves" she said, a big smile on her face. The babies cooed louder when they heard the sound of their mothers voice. Brooklyn grabbed Amelia while Jon took J.J.
"Happy Valentine's day baby girl" she said, kissing her daughter's cheek, getting a little smile in return.
J.J, not to be left out, cooed even more.
"I think someone thinks you're forgetting them mommy." Brooklyn laughed and walked over.
"Mommy didn't forget about you. Happy Valentine's day handsome" she finished, kissing his cheek before Jon did the same to both.
"Are my babies hungry, hmm?" Jon smiled as she talked to both twins in her baby voice. She really was a natural with them.
Brooklyn walked over and sat in the rocking chair holding Amelia on one side as Jon laid J.J in her free arm. Helping her pull down her shirt, he watched as she lifted the twins slightly, smiling when they happily latched on to drink.
"They're always so happy" she commented.
"I would be too if my food came from there." Brooklyn giggled.
After the twins had their fill, they burped them before heading back to their bedroom. They placed the babies in their bouncy seats, making sure they were strapped in before heading to their closet to get ready for the day.
"So what is the dress code for this party?"
"Nude." Jon's eyes widened as Brooklyn laughed.
"I'm kidding! Relax, its just a casual party." She reassured, stroking his cheek.
Jon let out a little sigh.
"I know but I don't want to look like and idiot if everyone else is dressed up and here I am in jeans and a t-shirt."
"Everyone will be in casual babe. You know how Sarah is. She hates dressing up like you unless its necessary. Everyone's here to celebrate Sarah's birthday so I don't think they will be to focused on what you're wearing. Besides, its your house. You can wear whatever you want."
Jon smiled at Brooklyn, knowing she was right.
"What would I do without you?" Brooklyn giggled as he kissed the top of her head.
They shared a quick kiss before going off to their clothes. Brooklyn picked out black skinny jeans, a black tight fitting wife beater, and a oriental printed kimono cardigan.
She took her clothes as well as a clean pair of underwear, the matching bra, and her black ankle high heel boots before starting out of the closet, stopping to whisper in Jon's ear as he looked through his shirts.
"Pick the tight white one. Its my favorite." She could see his lips go up in a smirk as she kissed his cheek before going to the bathroom. She changed quickly before starting her hair and make up. She did natural make up with a light pink lip before curling her long hair. When it was done, she sprayed it and turned everything off before going out to the bedroom.
She smiled seeing Jon laying on the bed, the twins laying next to him with pillows surrounding them to make sure they didn't roll. She saw he did in fact pick the tight white Adidas shirt she suggested.
"Comfortable" she asked with a smile as she crawled on the bed to sit in front of the twins.
She heard something weird and turned to see Mickey Mouse was on the screen.
"Always watch Mickey?" Jon rolled his eyes.
"I was flipping channels and when I got to this, they started doing their baby talk thing again. As soon as I turned it, they started to fuss so I turned it back and now they're quiet. I don't get it. They're not even a month old yet, how do they know what is on?"
Brooklyn giggled.
"They don't. But, they probably like the bright colors. Why do you think all baby toys are bright colored?"
"So I can see them before I step on them and break it. That reminds me, Mia needs a new rattle." Brooklyn looked wide eyed as Jon laughed. She shook her head and looked down at the twins.
"Your daddy is a strange man." She got little grins out of them, making her smile.
"Should we get you guys ready for aunt Sarah's party?" The babies cooed.
"Alright Mr. I break my daughter's toys, lets go change them." Jon rolled his eyes and turned the tv off before each grabbed a twin and went back to the nursery.
"Oh, I've been waiting for them to wear these" Brooklyn said, pulling out a twin set of onesies. One had a purple, yellow, and blue tutu attached for Mia and J.J's was a white onesie with that had a blue tie and black suspenders printed on it. They're we're gonna look adorable.
"I'm sorry for what is about to happen guys. Just remember, daddy tried." Brooklyn slapped his chest, making him laugh before they started changing them. Brooklyn snapped J.J's onesie on hims before putting him in a pair of matching baby blue pants while Jon snapped Amelia up, slipping on a pair of matching yellow pants.
"Bow." Jon cursed slightly. He was hoping she forgot. He took the matching bow from Brooklyn and carefully slipped it one Amelia's head.
"What are you gonna do when I throw these all away?"
"Buy more." Jon laughed as they picked the babies up and walked downstairs just as the doorbell rung.
Walking over, Jon opened the door seeing Stephanie, Paul, and the girls.
"Hey, what are you guys doing here" Brooklyn asked before Jon could.
"Well, we knew you had to set up and it can be hard with the babies so I thought we'd come over early to help. Oh, look how cute they are" Stephanie smiled, going right over to J.J while the others walked in.
"Oh, I wish I had a baby to dress up again" Stephanie said.
"No" Paul said immediately, making them all laugh.
"That's why you have me mommy!" They laughed at Vaughn as Paul took Amelia from Jon.
"Hey there little girl. Pick out the tutu Jon." Jon rolled his eyes as Brooklyn giggled.
"Paul leave him alone" Stephanie scolded.
"So what do you guys have to do?"
"Just hang up the banners and balloons. Colby brought drinks yesterday so we have to put them in the coolers. Don't worry, I stocked up on wine." Stephanie smiled at her daughter.
"Good. Should we get started? Boys, banners and balloons, we'll do the drinks." Stephanie's voice booked no argument.
They went to work. While Jon and Paul were hanging the banner up by the living room so you could see it as you walked in, Brooklyn, her mom, and her sisters went to the kitchen. The girls sat in front of the play pen and played with the babies while Brooklyn and Stephanie started putting the drinks away.
"So what did dad get you for valentine's day?"
"A new band to go with my wedding rings. Its got all your girls birthstones on it." She showed her hand and Brooklyn smiled.
"Its beautiful." Stephanie smiled.
"What about Jon?"
Brooklyn shrugged as she put the beer in.
"I don't know, he hasn't given it to me yet."
"Really?" Brooklyn nodded.
"Yea, but he said he had a surprise for me tonight so he'll probably give it to me then." Stephanie smiled.
"Brooklyn, how old are the babies" Murphy asked.
"They're about three weeks old."
"Are they gonna talk soon?" Brooklyn laughed and shook her head.
"No. They won't start talking until they're about one."
"I can't believe they're almost a month old."
"Me either. It feels like just yesterday I had them." Stephanie smiled to herself, knowing what it was like to see your babies grow up before your eyes.
"Before you know it, they'll be crawling, walking, talking, going to school then they'll leave home." Brooklyn looked at her mom and sighed.
"Can we not talk about that." Stephanie laughed and nodded. Over the next twenty minutes, they got all the drinks put away. Brooklyn started her chicken meatballs and stuck them in the oven. After washing her hands, they decided to go see how the men were doing. Brooklyn picked Amelia up while her mom took J.J, and they along with Aurora, Murphy, and Vaughn all left the kitchen.
Stepping into the living room, they stood by the door and watched her dad and Jon. The banners were all up but instead of balloons being hung up, they were doing something entirely different.
Jon and Paul both held purple balloons in their hands, sucking the helium out of them.
"First I was afraid, I was petrified" Jon sang, his once gravely and deep voice now at a higher pitch because of the helium. He resembled Alvin from Alvin and the Chipmunks.
Oblivious to the people watching them, Paul laughed at his son in law before taking a hit of his own balloon. Clearing his throat, he started talking.
"Luke, I am your father." His voice had gone much deeper then normal, resembling Darth Vader or Barry White.
Brooklyn bit her lip, trying to stop herself from laughing. Stephanie however, shook her head. This was one of the times that demonstrated that she took care of five kids, not four.
"Is this your idea of hanging balloons?" Jon and Paul jumped in surprise, the balloons they had being let go, causing to them to fly away as they deflated. The three little girls laughed, as did Brooklyn.
Embarrassed looks crossed their faces.
"Its not what it looks like" Paul said, getting ready to defend them.
"No? So you weren't quoting Darth Vader to your son in law after inhaling helium from the balloons that you were supposed to be hanging up for your god daughter's twenty fourth birthday?"
Paul scratched the back of his neck and chuckled awkwardly.
"Okay, maybe it was what it looked like."
"Yea, but we were just taking a break" Jon added quietly, avoiding the gaze of his mother in law. In reminded him to much of Brooklyn when she would get mad like that.
Speaking of, Brooklyn saw the hint of mischief in her husband's eyes. She knew that he had to have been the mastermind behind this.
"You sounded like Alvin, Jon" Murphy said, giggling.
"Who" he asked confused. Everyone looked at him wide eyed.
"Seriously? You've never heard of Alvin and the Chipmunks" Aurora questioned. Jon shook his head.
"We're gonna make you watch it now" Murphy proclaimed. Everyone laughed before Stephanie went back on her war path.
"Seriously Paul. You're forty plus years old" she continued. Brooklyn couldn't help but laugh at the scolding her father was receiving. It was pretty funny.
Before her mom could continue, Brooklyn decided to step in.
"Come on mom, it was pretty funny and they did get all the banners up" she reasoned. Stephanie sighed. She knew her daughter was right and it didn't help that she was using the infamous McMahon pout. She really did regret teaching that pout to her.
"Fine" Stephanie relented.
Both men let out silent sighs of relief.
"Anything else you need done, B?" Brooklyn nodded as she swayed back and forth with Amelia, something she always did when she held a baby.
"Yea, I need the presents we got her wrapped. Think you can do it Darth?" Paul rolled his eyes.
"Yes, smart ass I can." Brooklyn giggled as he walked into the living room and to the kitchen.
"I'm going to supervise him" Stephanie said, handing J.J over to Jon before following her husband.
"Sissy, can we watch a movie?" Brooklyn nodded.
"Sure. Go pick one out, I'll be in in a few minutes." The nodded and walked into the living room, over to the movie cabinet they head by the fire place.
"So, Aretha Franklin huh?" Jon rolled his eyes as she referred to the singer of the song he had sung earlier.
"Its what came to mind." Brooklyn just hummed before walking in the living room, Jon rolling his eyes before following.
A little while later, the somewhat quiet house buzzed with noise as all the guests arrived. The twins were being passed around. Brooklyn was happy to see some of Sarah's friends who she also befriended that she hadn't seen in a while.
"Who are all these people" Jon asked as Brooklyn stood by him by the sink. Brooklyn smiled as she placed the meatballs on a serving tray.
"Some are Sarah's family on her mom's side, some from her dad's. The others are friends from work or school. Why are you standing over here?"
"Because I only know like ten people here and one of these guys kept looking at me funny." She gave him a small smile and stepped in front of him, wrapping her arms around his waist. She could tell he felt a little out of place.
"He was probably checking out your muscles" she said, placing her hands on his chest. Jon just gave her a look that made her giggle as the doorbell rang.
"Alright everyone, shut up" Shawn said, handing J.J to Brooklyn as her aunt Rebecca handed Jon Amelia.
They heard the door open and Colby yell out.
"Brook, Jon, are you guys here?"
"In here" Jon said, calling them to the kitchen. They heard footsteps and as soon as Sarah stepped in, everyone yelled.
"Surprise!" Sarah jumped and smiled as Colby placed his hands on her shoulder's.
"What? What are you guys doing here?" Everyone smiled as her parents walked over to hug her.
"Like we were gonna miss your birthday. Happy birthday bumble bee." Sarah smiled and hugged her parents before her siblings.
"Wow, this is great you guys. Thank you so much."
"Thank Colby, he came up with the idea." Sarah smiled and turned to her boyfriend, who had a blush covering his cheeks.
"You did?" Colby nodded and Sarah leaned up to kiss him softly.
"No, none of that. Its time to party." Sarah laughed as they pulled away. She walked around and said hi to everyone.
"Oh look how cute you are" she cooed as she made her way to Jon and Brooklyn. The babies just looked at her as Brooklyn hugged her friend.
"Happy birthday Sarah." Sarah smiled at Jon.
"Thank you and thank you for having this here."
"Its no problem. Come on, lets go have fun." Sarah laughed. For a good two hours, the house buzzed with noise.
"So how was your morning" Brooklyn asked as she and Sarah stood in the kitchen. Jon and Colby had the twins in the living room.
Sarah looked at her friend and smiled.
"It was great. I woke up and Colby had breakfast already made. So we ate in bed and then he gave me my presents." Brooklyn smiled.
"What did he get you?"
"Some new sweatshirts. The entire Harry Potter Book set, and this." She held her hand out, showing Brooklyn the custom made silver and green Slytherin ring that sat on her third finger of her right hand.
"That's beautiful" Brooklyn said, smiling. Sarah nodded, looking at the ring lovingly.
"I know. I can't believe he did this" she said, not just talking about the presents but the party as well.
"He wanted to do something nice for you Sar." Sarah smiled. They lapsed into silence as they finished refilling the chip bowls.
"Brook, can I ask you something?" Brooklyn looked at her best friend, seeing a nervous look on her face.
"Of course. What's up?" Sarah bit her lower lip.
"How long were you and Jon together before you guys, you know?" It took a moment before Brooklyn caught on.
"Well, after the entire Randy situation I wanted to wait a least a month, something he respected. Then I talked to Nick about it and realized I couldn't hold Jon off because of one guy."
Sarah nodded slowly as she took a sip of her drink. Brooklyn couldn't help but feel like there was a motive to Sarah's question.
"Why Sar? Is Colby trying to force you cause I'll kill him." Sarah's eyes widened as she calmed her best friend down.
"No. God no." Sarah looked around, making sure no one was there before she started again.
"He isn't forcing me to do anything. He's being a complete gentleman."
Brooklyn nodded, her anger dissipating.
"So you think you guys are ready huh" she asked, a smile forming on her face.
Sarah groaned slightly, her cheeks flushing.
"Yea, I think I'm ready. Colby's so amazing and I'm starting to really fall for him."
Brooklyn smiled wide. She had been Sarah's best friend for twenty three years and had only seen her life this one other time. She was sixteen and had her first serious boyfriend.
Brooklyn was happy to see Colby had brought this side out of her again.
"So how come you're talking to me about this? Why not talk to Colby?" Sarah shrugged.
"I wanted a girls advice and no way am I asking mom. Dad would over hear and kill Colby. And I didn't want Colby to feel like he's pressuring me. He'll just way that he'll wait until I'm certain."
"And what is wrong with that? It shows Colby really cares about you."
Sarah nodded.
"I know he does. He doesn't need to do that to prove it. He's already how me how much he cares about me."
Brooklyn looked at Sarah and sighed. It was definitely time for the classic best friend advice.
"Listen Sar, it's obvious how much you both care about each other. I haven't seen either of you like this, especially you." Sarah's eyes never left Brooklyn's as she paused. She didn't wanna bring up the specific name from eight years ago because she didn't want to make Sarah upset. Especially on her birthday.
"If you're ready then tell him. Then you both can make the decision. Whenever the time is right" she finished. Sarah nodded.
"Okay. Thank you for the advice Brook." Brooklyn smiled.
"You're welcome. Just remember, you'll know when the time is right. Also, remember to use protection cause I don't think I'll be able to hold dad and uncle Shawn back from killing Colby if he gets you pregnant." Both girls giggled as Colby and Jon walked into the kitchen carrying J.J and Amelia in their arms.
"What are you two doing hiding in here" Jon teased. Sarah and Brooklyn exchanged a look before talking at the same time.
"Just talking."
Colby and Jon raised their eyebrows.
"What about" Colby said, a smirk on his face.
The girls shared the same look again.
"Just girl talk" they said at the same time.
"Alright, that is just creepy" Jon replied. Brooklyn whacked him in the stomach before taking Amelia from him.
Sarah and Colby laughed as Jon scowled before taking J.J from Colby, much to his protest.
"Hey!" Jon smirked.
"Don't hey me Lopez. You're supposed to be my friend and you laughed at me. See J.J, this is why we don't like sellouts" Jon said, making J.J coo.
Colby rolled his eyes before he wrapped his arms around Sarah, who was still laughing.
"Seriously, you two are like an old married couple" Sarah said, wiping her eyes.
"This is tame compared to what they used to be like" Brooklyn added, giggling when Jon pinched her side.
"So Sarah, are you enjoying you birthday" Jon asked, changing the subject.
Sarah smiled and nodded.
"Yea, I am. Everything has been absolutely amazing!"
Colby smiled at the happy expression on his girlfriends face.'
"Well its technically not over since tonight I'm taking you out for a surprise." Sarah raised an eyebrow at Colby, who was smiling like the goof he was.
"Really? Where?"
"That defeats the purpose of the surprise sweetheart." Sarah pouted.
"Fine. Be mean to your girlfriend on her birthday" she said dramatically. Brooklyn and Jon laughed at her while Colby just shook his head.
"Sarah, Come here!" Sarah smiled and kissed Colby's cheek before heading out to the foyer where her father was. She smiled seeing her uncle Mick, Kevin, and Sean.
"Hey guys" she said, hugging them.
"Hey Sarah. Happy birthday!" Sarah smiled.
"Thank you." She saw looks on their faces and arched an eyebrow.
"What?"
"This um, this is from Scott" Kevin said, holding out a purple gift bag. Sarah and her father both tensed.
"Thank you, but I don't want it." Her uncles nodded understandingly.
"So where is the boy toy?"
Sarah sighed. Who didn't her dad tell?
"He is good and now is not the time to interrogate him so please, don't." They laughed at her.
"We promise. So where is he?"
Back in the kitchen, Colby and Jon were trying to get Brooklyn to confess what the girls were talking about.
"Come on Brook, tell us." Brooklyn shook her head as she swayed with Amelia.
"No."
"Brook, its not nice to keep things from your husband." Brooklyn rolled her eyes.
"It was just girl stuff, nothing for you boys to get panties in a knot about." Both men rolled their eyes.
"Colby, come here!" Colby smiled at hearing his girlfriend.
"Get it out of her" he said before leaving the kitchen. Jon and Brooklyn both just laughed.
A couple hours later, the party was over and everyone had left except Sarah and Colby who stayed to help clean up.
"One more" Sarah said, bringing in another glass to give to Brook who was loading the dishwasher. Brooklyn took it from her and placed it in just as the door leading from the kitchen to the garage opened and the men came back in after taking the garbage out.
"Everything all done?" Brooklyn nodded as she closed the dishwasher and started it.
"I really can't thank you guys enough for hosting this" Sarah said as Colby wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Brooklyn smiled as Jon did the same to her.
"It was no problem. We're all happy you had fun." Sarah smiled as Colby checked his watch.
"Alright, I think we should get going. Our reservations are in an hour."
"Ooh reservations. Fancy." Colby rolled his eyes, making Sarah laugh. They hugged Jon and Brooklyn good bye before leaving.
Brooklyn let out a yawn, making Jon chuckle.
"Nap before surprise?" Brooklyn nodded and Jon led her over to the couch. He laid down, Brooklyn laying down next to him. She laid her head on his chest, falling asleep quickly thanks to the sound of his heartbeat. Jon smiled and kissed her head. He started planning stuff in his head. He knew what he wanted to do and had to plan it out.
Since the twins were down for their nap having surprisingly stayed awake all day, he knew they would nap for a while before getting up, which also meant they were probably going to have a long night.
Waiting a few minutes, he moved carefully as to not wake Brooklyn up. He laid her on the couch and covered her with her blanket.
"Lets get started" he said to himself.
/*/
Sarah laughed as her and Colby stepped of the elevator and walked to her door. They had just gotten done at dinner and were on cloud nine.
"Thank you so much for dinner Colby. It was amazing!" Colby smiled as she opened the door and let them in. Thor ran to greet them and after being petted, ran back to lay down.
"I am glad you liked it." Sarah smiled as he walked over to wrap his arms around her. He bent down and gave her a lingering kiss. Sarah smiled and kissed him again. Before things could get heated, Colby pulled away.
"As much as I would love to continue that, I have some stuff for you." Sarah smiled as he walked over to her entertainment stand and pulled out a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates.
"You didn't have to do this" she said, smiling. Colby smiled and handed her the flowers.
"I wanted to." Sarah smiled as she set the flowers down and looked through the chocolates. They were all her favorites.
"Well, I love them." Colby smiled.
"That's not all." Sarah furrowed her eyebrows as he pulled out a black, velvet, jewelry box from his dress pants pocket.
"For you my lady." Sarah giggled and took the box from him. Colby kept his eyes on her face as she slowly lifted the lid. Sarah gasped softly when she saw what was inside. It was a necklace with a tiny heart pendant in the middle.
"Colby" she said, looking at him with wide eyes. Colby smiled and took the box from her. He took the necklace out and walked around her to put it around her neck.
"Its our first valentine's together and I wanted to get you something special. Do you like it?" Sarah looked up at him and smiled.
"I love it." Colby smiled as she moved away from him to go to her coat closet. She walked in and grabbed a similar looking box before going back to him.
"You didn't have to get me anything." Sarah smiled.
"Oh well. You didn't have to throw me a birthday party but you did. Take it." Colby smiled and took the box. Opening it, his eyes widened seeing a new watch sitting inside.
"Sarah" he started but she stopped him.
"What? You deserve it. You have been so amazing to me this past month." Colby looked at her and smiled.
"Thank you. I love it." Sarah smiled as she closed the box and set it down on the coffee table. Sarah giggled when he pulled her by her waist to be pushed against his body as he bent down to kiss her passionately. Sarah moaned and wrapped her arms around her neck.
His lips left hers and traveled down her neck.
Sarah moaned softly as he hit her weak spot. She knew they should talk first but her next words left her mouth before she could stop them.
"I want you Colby." Colby froze. Did she just say what he thought she did? He pulled away and looked at her.
"What?"
"I-I want you." His eyes widened slightly.
"R-really?" Sarah bit her lip and nodded.
"Yea, unless you want to wait then I'm-," She was cut off when he kissed her passionately again.
"I want you too sweetheart." Sarah smiled and kissed him again. Colby picked her up so her legs went around his waist as he blindly walked back to her bedroom. Sarah's head was swimming. One minute her and Colby were kissing passionately and the next, her back was hitting her soft mattress, Colby's lips back on her neck.
She moaned when he once again found her weak spot. His hands traveled up her legs to the hem of her dress. Sarah getting the hint, sat up so she could unzip it from the back and let it fall forward. Colby helped her take it off and throw it on the floor before looking back at her.
He groaned and immediately felt blood rush to his member. Sarah sat there in only her strapless pink lace bra and matching panties.
"So beautiful." Sarah blushed under the praised as she let out a squeak of surprise when she was pushed back on the bed. Colby quickly pulled his shirt and pants off, throwing them on the ground with her dress. Sarah placed her hands on his chest and rubbed. God he had an amazing body!
She squeaked when she felt herself being pushed back so she was laying down. Colby climbed on top of her and once more connected their lips. Sarah wrapped her arms around his neck as his hands roamed her body.
He didn't think he had ever seen someone so beautiful before, including his two exes.
Sarah was so lost in the moment that she didn't even realize what was happening until they were both naked. Her back arched off the bed as Colby took one of her perk nipples into his mouth.
"Oh god" she said. She could feel herself getting even wetter. She had never been this wet before.
Colby was the same. He was painfully hard and all he wanted to do was bury himself in Sarah but he was determined to take it slow and make it as special as he could.
"I need you" she said breathlessly when he moved to her other nipple. Colby looked up at her, seeing her eyes were completely covered with lust. He let her nipple go before kissing her breasts again.
He reached for his wallet that was on the nightstand and pulled a condom out that he had. Sarah took it from him and ripped it open before helping him put it on. She blushed as she did so. She didn't think she had ever seen someone so big before. Colby kissed er again, this time so lovingly it made her toes curl.
He lent forward, causing her to lay back. He gently nudged her legs apart and laid between them, lining himself up with her entrance.
"Are you sure?" Sarah nodded and wrapped her arms around him. Colby kissed her again as she slid into her. Sarah groaned as he stretched her. It had been a while since she had shared a bed with someone.
Once he was all the way in her, he stilled to let her get used to him. He let out a groan of his own when her walls clamped onto him.
'She feels so good' he thought, looking down at his girl.
"Are you okay" he asked softly. Sarah looked up at him and nodded. She loved how sweet he was being. Most guys wouldn't wait but she knew Colby wasn't like them. She knew he didn't want to hurt her.
Her hips wiggled against his, telling him she was ready. He pulled out almost all the way before gently thrusting back into her. It took a few moments but they settled into a rhythm.
Colby groaned as Sarah moaned, her hips lifting to meet his thrust for thrust.
"Oh you feel so good" he said, leaning down to attack her neck again. Sarah moaned her nails digging into his back.
"Oh god, just like that" she said when he touched her g-spot.
"Colby" she moaned, louder this time. Colby groaned and sped up. Nothing in the world would ever compare to hearing Sarah moan his name.
Their bodies began to get a thin layer of sweat on them as they both came closer to their orgasms.
"I'm so close" she said. Colby nodded.
"I know sweetheart. I'm right there with you." Another loud moan escaped her throat as he moved even faster, trying to give them what they both desperately wanted.
Sarah opened her mouth to say something but stopped when she felt the most incredible sensation wash over her. Her body started to convulse as her back arched off the bed.
Her orgasm rocked through her body like she had never felt before. Colby groaned as her nails dug into him and her clenched him. A couple more thrusts and he joined her in bliss. They both moaned each others names as Colby came in the condom.
Sarah's body dropped back onto the bed, exhausted. Both were breathing hard as they came down from their highs.
Sarah let out a slight moan as he pulled out of her. He took the condom off and threw it in the trash can she had next to her bed.
"Are you okay" he asked. Sarah smiled and nodded.
"I'm amazing. That was amazing." Colby smiled and blushed slightly and laid down next to her, pulling her in his arms.
"Thank you. Happy Valentine's day Sarah." Sarah smiled and kissed him softly.
"Happy Valentine's day Colby." They shared a smile before settling in each others arms, staying that way for the rest of the night.

Jon walked back to the living room to wake up his lady. Everything was ready to go so now all he needed was Brooklyn.
Walking into the living room, he walked to the couch and bent down to shake her gently.
"Brook, baby, you gotta get up." He stood to his full height as he watched her stir before opening her eyes slightly.
"Hi" she said sleepily. Jon chuckled.
"Hey. Sleep good?" She nodded as she sat up.
"Yea. What time is it?"
"Almost eight." Brooklyn nodded and noticed there was some flour on his jeans.
"Why is there flour on your pants?" Jon looked down, sighing. He thought he had gotten it all.
"Damn flour, sticks everywhere." Brooklyn giggled as he looked back up at her.
"Well?"
"I'll show you. Follow me." He held his hand out for her to take. Brooklyn smiled and took it. He led her into the dining room. Her mouth watered when she smelt something amazing.
"What is that smell?" Jon smiled at her as they walked in. Brooklyn gasped softly. The lights were down low, candles all around. On the table sat two plates that had chicken parmesan on it.
"What is this" she said, smiling wide.
"Part one of your surprise." The smile never left her face as he led her over to her seat. He pulled her chair out for her before sitting across from her.
"You made this" she said, picking her fork up. Jon nodded.
"Yea. Recipes are a wonderful thing." Brooklyn giggled. Jon barely cooked at all but today she got two homemade meals and it made her heart melt. They ate in a comfortable silence. When they were finished, Jon looked at Brooklyn.
"All done?" Brooklyn smiled and nodded. as Jon grabbed her plate and put them in the sink. She stood up to wash them but was suddenly swept off her feet as Jon lifted her bridal style.
"What are you doing" she asked, smiling. Jon shared the smile.
"Those can wait until later. Right now, I have another surprise for you." Brooklyn smiled as he walked upstairs.
"Ooh, a candle lit dinner and another surprise. I am a very lucky girl." Jon smirked and walked into their bedroom. He walked right to the bathroom and Brooklyn gasped softly.
The bathroom was lit up with candles and had rose petals all over. A hot bath was drawn, rose petals sitting in there and she could smell the Epsom salts. Chocolate covered strawberries sat on the side of the tub as well. It was beautiful.
"You did this for me?" Jon nodded, smiling at her smile.
"Yea, don't ask me how I did it, but I did." Brooklyn giggled and cupped his face, kissing him softly.
"Its amazing." Jon smiled and set her down on her feet. He reached for something that was sitting on the bathroom counter.
"For you" he said, handing her a card and a big wrapped present. Brooklyn smiled and opened the card first.
Brooklyn,
I don't even know where to start. I've never been good expressing my feelings but I'm gonna try. I cannot even begin to say how lucky I am to have you in my life. You have given me love that I have never experienced and you have given me the best gift of all, a family of my own. Thank you for putting up with me. You are the most amazing woman I have ever met in my life. Thank you for choosing me to spend your life with.. I love you more then you will ever know. And please don't cry, we're running out of toilet paper and tissues. I love you Brooklyn Elizabeth Good. Happy Valentine's day.
Brooklyn let out a little laugh as well as a sniffle. She couldn't help it. It was the sweetest card she had ever been given. She looked up at Jon, smiling with tears glistening in her eyes.
"I told you not to cry." She laughed again as he wrapped his arms around her.
"I can't help it. That was the sweetest card I've ever gotten. I am just as lucky to have you in my life too Jon."
Jon smiled and kissed her softy before wiping the tear that had fallen.
"Open your other one." Brooklyn smiled and set the card down as he handed her the wrapped gift. Ripping the paper, she saw a big book.
"What's this" she asked.
"Look." She looked down and opened the book, a big smile appearing on her face when she saw it was the very first picture her and Jon had ever taken together. Flipping through the pages, she saw picture after picture of her and Jon throughout their relationship. There were ones she had taken when they were in their hotel. Ones she had posted online, ones they took on their vacation and ones they took when the twins were born. The last picture was one that looked hand made. It was a piece of construction paper with foam letters glued on spelling out I Love You.
"You are the sweetest person I have ever met." Jon blushed a little under her praise.
"Well, I know girls like things homemade so." Brooklyn smiled and kept flipping.
"How did you get all these?"
"Well, Joe got the ones from your Instagram. One day you were napping, I took your phone and sent the rest to me. All fifty of them." Brooklyn giggled and closed the book, placing it back on the counter.
"Thank you, I love it." Jon smiled as she kissed him passionately.
"Ready for yours?" Jon nodded. Brooklyn walked out to the closet and grabbed the big framed present before going back to the bathroom.
"What is this?"
"Open it and see." Jon smirked and took it from her. He ripped it from the back before turning it around, his eyes widening. It was a framed photo of her wearing nothing but black lace panties and a black leather jack that he recognized as his. She had a sexy smirk on her face, her long hair curled and bright red lipstick on her lips. On the bottom had an imprint of her lips from the lipstick as well as a note.
Happy Valentine's Day Cowboy. Hope you don't mind I borrowed your jacket. I love you.
Jon looked up at her to see her smiling.
"When did you take this?"
Brooklyn giggled.
"Last week, coincidentally when you went out to get my present."
"Did someone help you?" Brooklyn shook her head.
"Nope. I put the camera on a tripod and timed it. Do you like it?"
"Like it? I fucking love it. Its going right downstairs so I can stare at it when I lift." Brooklyn giggled as he carefully set it down on the ground and wrapped his arms around her.
"What jacket was it?" Jon had the about five of the same jacket.
"The one you wear out to the ring." Jon groaned.
"Looks like I will be keeping that forever." Brooklyn giggled again as Jon smirked.
"Thank you" he said. Brooklyn smiled and rubbed his chest.
"You're welcome. Now, lets get in the bath before it gets cold."
Jon nodded. They both stripped down and got in. Brooklyn leaned against him, smiling when he fed her a strawberry, her returning the favor after. After they had their fill, they started to make out. Both their lips tasted sweet from the fruit. When they pulled away, Jon turned Brooklyn back around so her back was to him and tarted to massage her shoulder's. She sighed contently. This was the best Valentine's day she had ever had, granted she never really had one with anyone else but still.
She loved how much thought he put into everything. She definitely had a keeper. She just wished they could have sex so she could thank him for being so amazing.
"I'm sorry we can't have sex today." Jon shrugged as she turned around to push her front against him. He felt his dick harden a little at the feeling of her breasts pressed against his chest.
"Not your fault. The babies wanted to join us early and I'm happy they did. I was going crazy waiting for them."
"I know, but I just want to thank you for everything. You have been so amazing to me." Jon blushed again.
"The picture was thanks enough. Oh, and the two infants in the room next to us." Brooklyn giggled. Cupping her hands with water, she dumped it in his hair and slicked it back.
"You should slick your hair back more."
"Should I?" Brooklyn bit her lip and nodded. Jon wrapped his arms around her as she laid her head in the crook of his neck. Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling In Love played softly in the background. Brooklyn smiled as Jon sung to her softly. She had always loved this song.
"This would be a good first dance song."
"For the wedding?"
"No, for the dance recital I'm hosting." Jon tickled her sides, making her laugh.
"Smart ass." She giggled again.
"Yea, I meant the wedding. It's always been one of my favorites."
"Mine too."
"I can tell. You sing it all the time." Jon chuckled as she traced pattern with her fingers on his chest.
"I'm good with having this as our first dance." Brooklyn smiled at him.
"Did we just make a first decision for the wedding?" Jon smiled.
"I think we did. Go us." They high fived before laughing. Brooklyn closed her eyes contently as Jon rubbed her back. She couldn't wait for more planning to come.
