Chapter Sixty Nine:
"No."
"Yes."
Sarah raised an eyebrow as she walked into the conference room. She had just left Colby to do his signing before making her way to the room where Brooklyn had asked her to meet them so she could take the twins. She didn't expect to walk in and see Jon trying to wrestle Brooklyn into a sweatshirt while the twins laid in their stroller.
"You're wearing it."
"No I'm not." Brooklyn scowled, not even seeing her bestfriend walk in the door.
"Brook, if I'm having a hard time concentrating, then so will everyone else." Brooklyn rolled her eyes.
"No they won't because not everyone always is thinking about sex like you, Jon." Sarah laughed and shook her head, walking over to help.
"Okay you two, what's going on?" Both looked at Sarah.
"Jon is trying to convince me to put a sweatshirt on." Sarah looked at her outfit.
"Why?" Brooklyn threw her hands up.
"Thank you." Jon rolled his eyes.
"Because when she leans over, it shows to much and I'm a possessive man." Both girls rolled their eyes. Brooklyn turned to Sarah, completely ignoring Jon.
"Thank you for watching them today, Sar." Sarah smiled and looked down at the babies.
"It's no problem. I figured we could just walk around the center today. Nobody would recognize me or know who they are." Brooklyn nodded, fixing the babies blankets.
"Well I figured you wouldn't want to go out alone so I asked someone to go with you." Sarah raised an eyebrow and was ready to ask who when someone put their hands over her eyes.
"Guess who?" Sarah smiled, immediately recognizing the voice. Turning around, she came face to face with one of her and Brook's best friends, Noelle Foley.
"Noelle!" Noelle smiled as she hugged each girl.
"Hey guys. Hope you don't mind if I tag along today." Sarah shook her head.
"Nope." Brooklyn smiled as Jon came up to her.
"Babe, we gotta go. Last chance." He held up the sweatshirt again. She rolled her eyes and took it out of his hands and threw it in the bottom of the stroller.
"Rude." Brooklyn gigged and kissed each babies head.
"By my loves. Mommy loves you and she'll be back so. You guys be good for aunt Sarah and aunt Noelle. There are diapers in the bag, formula and bottles, some toys, and changes of clothes." Both girls nodded and watched as Jon and Brooklyn said their goodbye's to the babies before Jon had to practically drag Brooklyn off.
"Okay kiddos, lets go see if we can get in trouble." Sarah laughed at Noelle and grabbed the stroller, leading them out of the room and to the chaos of everything.
"Do you think I should have stayed?" Brooklyn asked while they were walking to their booth. Jon looked over at his wife and shook his head, giving the hand he was holding a squeeze.
"They're fine, Brook. You'll see them in a couple hours." Brooklyn nodded and took a deep breath as they stopped behind the curtain that they would walk out of to get to their seats.
"Ready?" Brooklyn nodded, the two sharing a sweet kiss before they walked out to the sea of people.
/*/
"God right there." Noelle and Sarah stopped short when they heard Brook.
"Ew, please tell me they're not doing anything."
"Jon, don't stop." Sarah scrunched her face up.
"God I hope not." Both walked into the conference room. They saw Brook with her head down on the table while Jon was sitting next to her, massaging her right hand. Both let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank god. We dodged a bullet babies." J.J and Amelia just looked at their aunt as Sarah pushed them over to the table where their parents were. Jon looked up at them and smiled.
"Hey guys." Sarah and Noelle smiled and waved.
"Hey. She okay?"
"My hand hurts." Brooklyn groaned as Jon continued to rub it. Sarah and Noelle laughed as they sat down.
"Long day?"
"No but she hasn't had to do a signing like that in a while. She'll be okay."
"My hand feels like it's going to fall off." All three rolled their eyes at Brooklyn's dramatics.
"You'll be fine, Brook." She picked her head up and glared at Jon.
"Says the man who didn't take almost a year off. You try doing a signing after a year of being gone." Jon kissed her hand as she looked at her friends.
"How were they?" She asked, peeking into the stroller seeing her babies laying there happy and awake,
"They were great. I didn't know you guys used formula now."
"At their two month check up, the doctor suggested we start weening them off breastfeeding and give them formula so they feel fuller and sleep more through the night." Both blondes nodded.
"And have they?" Jon nodded.
"They've only got up maybe what Brook, once or twice?" Brooklyn nodded.
"Yup and I don't like it." Sarah furrowed her eyebrows.
"Why?"
"Because we had a connection when I breastfed now I just make a bottle."
"You're still connected Brook. You guys shared a body for nine months."
"Ya know," Jon started. "I technically carried them longer. They were my little swimmers that got up there." All the girls rolled their eyes.
"First, don't call our babies that. Second, they weren't kicking you constantly, making you sick, having you pee every ten minutes or making you moody." Brooklyn raised an eyebrow at Jon. Jon sat back in his chair.
"Fine, you win." Brooklyn smirked and kissed his cheek.
"That's what I thought." Noelle and Sarah laughed.
"So are you done Brook?"
"Yup and I'm ready to go relax by the pool."
"Great, you're gonna be in a bikini and I'm gonna be here." Brooklyn smiled.
"You get done at four. We'll still be there."
"I hope so." Brooklyn smiled and kissed him softly before standing up.
"Are you guys ready?" Sarah and Noelle nodded. Brooklyn grabbed the stroller and smiled down at her babies as Jon stood up.
"I'll see you guys later." He kissed Brook before bending down and kissing the babies. Brooklyn kissed his cheek before she, Sarah, Noelle, and the babies left. Like before, the car met them in the back and picked them up before driving them back to the hotel.
"How was the signing, Brooklyn?"
"It was good, no creeps which is good. It was nice doing it again even though my hand cramped."
"When are you gonna get back in the ring?" Brooklyn shrugged.
"I don't know. I'm not really in a rush you know? Being the new Diva's manager is good enough for me right now."
The girls nodded.
"So how about you two? No itching to get back inside a ring?" Brooklyn teased.
Sarah groaned and ran a hand up and down her face.
"Don't Brook. It's bad enough with Vince and uncle Paul. I swear every month they try."
Brooklyn laughed.
"Well remember when we got roped into being the DX cheerleaders cause the others didn't show?"
Noelle laughed. "I remember when I got home, dad was so pissed. He said that is was disgraceful having to see his only daughter wearing next to nothing."
"Ours were the same. As soon as we got back through the curtain, dad and uncle Paul couldn't cover us up quick enough with hoodies." Brooklyn snorted.
"You got a hoodie. I got a near by tarp because dad didn't have a sweatshirt on hand." The girls laughed.
"But it was fun." Noelle grinned, playing with J.J.
Sarah and Brooklyn nodded.
"So are you saying you'd never take an on screen role?" Brooklyn asked. Sarah looked up from Amelia and sighed.
"I don't know." Sarah said truthfully.
"What if it was to be Colby's valet?" Noelle asked. Sarah smiled.
"Then maybe." All the girls smiled. Thirty minutes later, they were back at the hotel and changed into their bathing suits before heading down to the pool.
When they got outside to the pool they already saw Brie, Nikki, Sasha Banks or Mercedes as they called her, Ashley, and Becky all waiting for them.
"About time." Brooklyn rolled her eyes as she sat under a shady tree, laying the babies in front of her on the beach chair.
"Sorry but have you guys ever tried to get two tired babies dressed in bathing suits?" The girls shook their heads.
"They've gotten so big." Becky commented, looking down at the babies.
"How old are they now Brook? Almost three months?" Mercedes asked as she played with the babies.
Brooklyn sighed.
"Unfortunately. If time could stop going so fast, that be great." All the girls laughed.
"Now you know how your dad felt. Remember when you graduated." Brooklyn rolled her eyes and laughed.
"Yea he had a breakdown similar to the one he had when I told him I was pregnant with twins." All the girls laughed again.
"John said he and Bryan were going to join us when they were done if that's okay." The girls nodded.
"Yea that's fine. Colby, Joe, and Jon will probably come after they're done."
"See Jay, you won't be the only boy." J.J smiled at his aunt Ashley.
The girls continued to catch up, Mercedes telling the girls about her and her boyfriend recent trip they took together for their two year anniversary. Sarah zoned out while listening, her mind still flooding from the morning. She still couldn't believe that Colby had asked her to meet his family. There was no doubt it was a huge step for them. It added to Sarah's anxiety. The only parents she had ever met before were Matt's and that was completely different. She had know Matt and his family since she was ten. They already knew her so it wasn't awkward, but this time was different.
"Sar...Sarah...Sarah?"
Sarah jumped when she felt Mercedes knock her arm.
"Huh? What's up?"
"You zoned out on us. What's up?" Becky asked.
Sarah ran a hand through her blonde locks and shook her head.
"It's nothing."
The women all raise their eyebrows. They knew it was definitely something. Sarah never zoned out of conversations unless something was on her mind.
"Like we believe that." Brie said, folding her arms.
"Sarah if something is wrong, you can tell us." Brooklyn encouraged as she played with the babies. Sarah sighed.
"I went to breakfast with Colby this morning and were talking. He wants me to meet his family on Friday after the suit and dress fittings."
"What's wrong with that?" Nikki asked, confused.
Sarah swallowed hard and spoke again.
"I'm nervous. The only guys parents I met were Matt's and I had known them since I could remember. What happens if they hate me?"
The girls gave sympathetic looks when they saw the expression on Sarah's face.
"Sarah, they won't hate you." Noelle reassured with a smile.
"How could they hate you. You're amazing." Nikki added.
Sarah just gave an unsure shrug.
"Sar, I know that you're nervous but there's no need to be. Colby's family will love you." Brie gave a small smile.
Brooklyn put her hand on her friends shoulder in reassurance.
"Sarah, listen to me. They will love you. They'll see how happy you make the Sell Out. The last few months he met you, he was a mess what with the whole Leighla and Zahra situation. They'll love you because you helped him Sarah. You made him to what he is now. You've made him happier than anyone's ever seen him." Brooklyn smiled.
"Yea Sar, he always has a smile on his face now." Ashley grinned at the same time J.J and Amelia cooed and extended their hands towards Sarah.
"See? Even the twins agree." Sarah smiled and tickled their stomachs.
"You guys are right. No more worrying. Lets have some fun." All the girls cheered, making her laugh.
"I think we should tease our guys, ladies." Nikki said, smirking.
"How?"
"We each take a picture for them. I wanna see how fast they get here." They all laughed.
"I'm in. I like teasing Jon."
"And that's how they had you two." Mercedes cooed at the babies, laughing when Brooklyn hit her arm. Brooklyn, Nikki, Brie, and Sarah all took their pictures before sending them to their significant others.
"And this is where I wish I wasn't alone." Brooklyn laughed and hugged Ashley.
"You'll find someone, Ash."
"Maybe Nick." Becky teased.
"God no. I have standards." The girls laughed.
/*/
"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up." Joe furrowed his eyebrows as Colby and Jon all but ran out to the car that was waiting to take them back to the hotel.
"What's with you two?" He asked as they got in and the car pulled away.
"We both just got pictures from Sarah and Brooklyn. They're at the pool, in bikini's." Joe rolled his eyes at his brothers.
"You two are animals."
"Do you see this?" Colby and Jon said at the same time, showing him the pictures that they received. Jon's was one of Brooklyn laying on a sun lounger in her neon green bikini, her hands behind her head and smirk on her face. He looked at the one of Sarah who was standing in front of the water, hands in her hair and a smile on her face.
"Just because yours isn't here yet doesn't mean you can rain on our parades." Joe laughed and shook his head.
"Yea well you guys don't have to rub it in. I can't wait until I see Gal and JoJo."
"How come they didn't fly out with you?"
"Cause Jo still had school so they're gonna fly out Friday when she gets out of school."
"I'm sure they'd understand if she missed a few days." Jon said, getting a head shake in response.
"Jon, I think JoJo's education is a little more important. Would you want J.J and Amelia to miss a week of school?"
"I mean I used to why not?" Joe and Colby laughed. The car fell into a comfortable silence for a few minutes before Jon spoke again.
"I forgot to ask, Colbs. Did Sarah get a hold of Claire?" Colby looked up from his phone to his brother and nodded.
"Yea she called her this morning and they are faxing it over to the office."
"How are you guys dealing with it?" Joe asked, looking in the back from his seat in the passenger's seat.
Jon sighed, promising himself not to get angry. He was in a happy mood, his wife was in a bikini waiting for him and he wouldn't let his happy mood go south.
"As good as we can. We know Sarah will handle it so that helps. Brook said she wishes he would show up just so they would go to jail."
"I think we all want that." Jon nodded.
"Speaking of Sarah, I have some news."
"You're engaged." Jon guessed as he sipped his water. Colby's eyes widened.
"No, we're not engaged. That's in the future."
"She's not pregnant is she? Cause Shawn will kill you with help from Paul and all her other uncles." Colby rolled his eyes.
"How about instead of guessing, Jon, you let him tell us." Colby smiled at Joe.
"Thank you Joe."
"But if you did get her pregnant, I'm protecting you from Shawn and Paul."
"Me either. They already almost killed me when I proposed to Brooklyn without them knowing."
"And I didn't help him either."
Colby shook his head. "Are you guys going to let me say what I need to or keep jumping to conclusions?" Jon and Joe rolled their eyes.
"Fine, go."
Colby nodded and smiled.
"This morning I asked Sarah to meet my family on Friday." Joe and Jon's eyes widened. They hadn't known Colby to ever introduce a girl to his family this early on in a relationship. Not even Leighla.
"Really?" Colby nodded.
"Yea I love her and I want them to meet. Do you guys think it's to soon, Joe?" Joe shook his head.
"Not at all Colbs. If you're ready then you're ready. I met Gal's after a month together. Not to soon at all." Colby nodded.
"Why did you ask Joe and not me?" Colby rolled his eyes.
"Because, dummy, we work for Brooklyn's parents. You've already met them." Jon rolled his eyes.
"Yea but it was different after we started dating and I met the rest of her family. I was just as nervous."
"Sarah's nervous, I can tell but I know my family will love her like I do."
"Definitely." Joe said, Jon nodding his head in agreement. Anyone could see Sarah had changed him in a good way.
Once they arrived back at the hotel, the car stopped and they got out. They were all lucky there were no fans waiting for them. As soon as they entered the hotel, Jon and Colby all but ran to the elevators.
"Catch the next one, Joe." Joe scowled as the doors shut on him. The elevator wasted no time reaching Colby's floor. No sooner as the doors opened, Colby shouted a quick goodbye and ran out of the elevator and down to his room. Jon quickly pressed the button to close the elevator doors, tapping his foot impatiently until they finally got to his floor. Just like Colby, Jon wasted no time running to his room to change so he could finally spend the rest of the day with his family.
Ten minutes later, Jon was wearing his black swim trunks as well as his white, tight, Adidas shirt that he knew Brook would love. Grabbing his Ray Bans and his phone, Jon left and made his way down to the lobby. Once down there, he followed the signs out to the pool. When he got outside, he walked over to the entrance for the pool. Scanning around, he wasted no time finding Brooklyn who he could easily spot due to the brightness of her bikini. She was reclining on a sun lounger, J.J resting on her chest as she was talking to Ashley, who had Amelia.
Since Brooklyn was distracted in her conversation, Jon quietly snuck over to her. Once he was close enough, he motioned for Ashley not to say anything to Brook which was met with a sly nod. Jon placed his hands on Brooklyn's shoulder's, smirking when she tensed.
"Hey sugar, fancy a good time." Jon said, disguising his voice.
"Ew, back off asshole I'm married."
Jon laughed, which made Brook carefully sit up with J.J in her arms. As soon as she saw it was Jon, her scowl dropped replaced with a wide smile.
"Jonathan!" Jon laughed.
"What? It was funny."
"No it wasn't. I thought you were a creep." Jon just laughed and took Amelia from Ashley.
"Hey, at least I know you can take care of yourself."
Brooklyn rolled her eyes playfully before Jon kissed her lips softly, making Ashley groan when Brooklyn appeared to deepen it.
"I'm gonna go get a drink. I really don't wanna see you two sucking face."
The married couple didn't hear her as they continued kissing. After a few minutes, they both pulled away, breathing hard.
"I missed you."
Jon smiled, tucking a stray piece of brown hair behind his wife's ear.
"I missed you too. Thanks for the picture by the way."
Brooklyn smiled.
"You're welcome. I thought you might like it."
Jon smirked. "I more than liked it." Brooklyn giggled as Jon set Mia down next to J.J before pulling off his shirt. Brooklyn's eyes raked over Jon's body, her eyes taking in every single muscle.
"Like what you see?" Jon teased.
Brooklyn blushed as Jon laid next to her.
"Can you blame me? It's your arms." Jon laughed as they each picked a baby back up.
Colby stepped out of the elevator dressed in his swim trunks and vans. His Ray Bans covered his eyes as he carried his A Day To Remember shirt in his free hand while he spoke on his phone. He would've been down by the pool earlier but Brandon had called him which meant he'd spent the last half hour hearing his mother giving questions to Brandon to ask him.
"How's Kev doing?" Colby asked as he walked through the lobby.
"He's doing fine, Colbs. He missed you though." Brandon replied before he heard their mom again.
"Ask him what's this surprise he has for us. He knows I hate surprises."
Colby laughed at his mom's impatience. "Mom does realize I can hear her, right?"
Brandon laughed too. "Oh she knows. She's been trying to guess since you texted me that you had a surprise for us when we flew in."
"Patience isn't mom's thing. What time do you get in?"
"We're due in at twelve. You know we could've paid for a hotel and flights."
"I know but you guys are my family and I want you all here so I'm willing to pay anything for that."
Colby was cut off when he heard his mom's voice again.
"Let me speak to him. Now Brandon."
There was a rustling sound and his brother's voice was replaced with his mothers.
"Colby Daniel Lopez, you know I hate surprises. What's going on?"
Knowing his mother wouldn't give up, he sighed. "Well there's someone that I want you all to meet and I thought Friday would be the perfect time."
"Who do you want us to meet? They must be important." His continued firing questions at the architect, making his head hurt as he walked outside to the pool. He looked up and immediately spotted Sarah in her dark blue and silver bikini, sitting on the side of the pool, talking with Mercedes. Colby's lips turned up into a big grin as his heart rate picked up. He must've zoned out because he was soon brought back hearing his mother's voice.
"Colby...Colby you still there?"
/
Colby kept his eyes on Sarah as he spoke to his mother. "Yeah mom, I'm still here."
"Well as I was saying, they must be important if you want them to meet us. You hardly ever have us meet people."
"She is really important to me mom." Colby answered, still watching Sarah.
"She? What's her name?"
Colby groaned. As soon as he told her he was dating, she would bombard him with questions.
"Mom, I've been dating her for almost three months. I've told you about her. Remember, Sarah?"
"Oh yes. The lawyer? So we finally get to meet her?" He could feel his mom's smile.
"Yeah mom. On Friday. Listen, I have to go okay. Tell Brandon I'll call him tomorrow. I love you."
"I love you too, sweetie."
Colby pulled the phone away from his ear and pushed the end button before locking his phone. Walking over to the lounge chair, he set his things down next to Sarah's. Silently walking over, he bent d\own right behind her so he could whisper in her ear.
"Hi sweetheart." He heard her gasp and saw her jump before she fell into the pool. Colby's eyes widened as Mercedes laughed and Sarah resurfaced. She wiped the water off her face and looked at Colby.
"Colby!"Colby held his hands up in surrender.
"I didn't do anything. I didn't know that would scare you." Sarah rolled her eyes as he reached a hand out to help her out. Sarah smirked and grabbed onto it, pulling him into the water with her. She laughed as he came back up and shook his head like a dog.
"Now that's just mean. I told you it was an accident." Sarah laughed as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
"So was that. Not my fault I'm stronger than you." Colby snorted.
"Okay, sure." Sarah giggled and lightly kissed him.
"How was the signing?"
"It was good. Best part was seeing you and the babies." Sarah smiled.
"Well they were very excited to see their uncle Colby. Except Mia but after a bottle, she was fine."
"She hates me like her mother."
"I heard that, Sell Out." They both turned their heads to see Brooklyn, Jon, and the babies walking over to the side of the pool. They sat down and held the babies in their laps, their little eyes widening at the water.
"She doesn't hate you, Colbs. She's just like Brook. They both get cranky when they're hungry, right baby girl?" Mia clapped her hands, making everyone laugh.
"That's my girl." Colby smiled, taking Amelia from Jon and holding her to his chest. Sarah smiled fondly at the sight. Colby talked softly to the little baby, smiling until he felt something that made it drop. He immediately walked over and held her out for Jon to take.
"What?" He asked laughing.
"She pooped." Everyone laughed again as Jon carefully stood up and walked over to the lounge chair to change his daughter.
"Maybe she doesn't like you." Colby scowled as Brooklyn laughed and Sarah wrapped her arms around him.
"I still like you." Colby smirked and kissed her forehead. For the next hour, they all hung out, laughing and having fun, even having a diving contest which they were currently arguing about.
"Come on! That was good!"
"Bryan, all you did was drop kick into the pool." Bryan rolled his eyes as he and Brie tread water.
"Well we can't all do a cartwheel then a flip like Nikki." Nikki smirked as she wrapped her arms around John.
"Get over it Bry. I'm the winner."
"Hey!" She heard from behind her, seeing Ashley, Sarah, Mercedes, Noelle, and Colby all still lined up to take their turns.
"You haven't won yet." Nikki rolled her eyes.
"Yes I have. The only who could beat me is Colby."
The arguing kept going as Jon looked at Brook.
"Why are we friends with them?" He whispered. Brooklyn giggled and turned to look at him.
"Because they're fun when they're not arguing." Jon chuckled as they both looked back to the board as Sarah stepped up to the board.
"Come on Sar!" Brooklyn cheered, making her smile.
"Don't do to bad, babe. I don't wanna have to be the one to beat you." Sarah rolled her eyes at Colby. She bounced a few times on the board before jumping off and hitting a Swanton Bomb into the water.
Everyone's eyes widened as she resurfaced.
"Who taught you how to do that?" Joe asked. Sarah smirked as she swam to the side.
"Who do you think?"
"I know!" Sarah laughed at Brooklyn.
"I didn't know you knew Jeff." Sarah smiled as she jumped up to sit next to Brook.
"Are we gonna keep talking about who Sarah knows or continue with the competition?"
Colby jumped up next. As he was jumping on the board to prepare himself, they heard heels coming towards them. They all turned and saw Stephanie walking towards them.
"Mom?" Colby's eyes widened as he misjudged his jump and fell off the board into the water. Everyone would have laughed if they weren't on edge with Stephanie being there.
"Hold him." Brooklyn said, handing J.J over to Jon who now held both babies in his arms as Brook stood up to face her mom.
"Mom I swear, we all have the time off and nothing anytime soon." Stephanie nodded.
"I know I just um came because I had a favor to ask." Brooklyn nodded, seeing the tired look on her mom's face.
"Okay, anything. What's up?"
"Well I realized after our talk this morning, I need to relax. It isn't good for me or any of the talent to be this way. I was wondering if your dad and I could have the babies tonight?" Brook looked down at Jon.
"Mom, I think you need sleep and relaxation. Are you sure you want the babies there?" Stephanie nodded.
"Yea. They can spend time with the girls and us and maybe you and Jon can go out." Jon's head perked up at her words. He'd love to take Brooklyn on a date to have some alone time. Carefully standing up, he stood by Brooklyn's side.
"Are you sure?" Stephanie nodded.
"Positive." Jon looked at Brook.
"It's okay with me. We can have date night." Brooklyn looked at Jon then to the babies then to her mom.
"Okay, you can have them. We'll bring them around seven." Stephanie nodded.
"Thank you guys." She turned to walk away before turning back.
"I um, sorry everyone for being so stressed." Everyone shook their heads, saying it was okay. Stephnaie just gave a small smile before walking away.
"Brook, is she broke?" Brooklyn laughed and looked at Ashley.
"No just tired. Come on, lets get back to the competition. Colby, you're out." Colby threw his hands up in the air.
"It wasn't my fault! I fell."
"To bad. Becky, you're up."
/*/
"Where are we going?" Jon smirked as he continued to hold his hand over Brooklyn's face so she couldn't see as their taxi drove them to their second part of their date night. They had just finished dinner and drinks at a local bar before Jon told her the night wasn't over yet.
"I told you babe, it's a surprise. You'll like it though."
"I hope so or this night won't end the way you think." Jon chuckled and kissed her cheek. After a few minutes, Brooklyn felt the car stop.
"Now how are you going to cover my eyes."
Jon rolled his eyes and lowered his hand.
"You can look now." Brooklyn smiled and looked out the window, her smile widening.
"Laser tag?" Jon smiled and nodded.
"Yea. It's almost been a year since we've been together and I thought what is something special we can do." Brooklyn smiled but something occurred to her. Looking down at her outfit, she scowled. She was wearing her thigh high leather boots, leggings, gray tank top, and a leather jacket. Looking at Jon, she saw his smirk.
"You dick!" Jon laughed as they got out.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Brooklyn rolled her eyes.
"Yes you do. You're the one who told me to wear these shoes. You told me to so you can win tonight." Jon just kept the smirk on his face as they walked into the building.
"Baby, I have no idea what you are talking about. I would never do that." Brooklyn huffed as he paid and they walked over to where the vests and guns were.
"Like I believe that. Jokes on you, I can run in heels." Jon laughed as he slipped on his blue vest. Brooklyn shrugged her maroon leather jacket off and slipped her red vest on over her gray tank top.
"You're a cruel man, Jonathan Good."
"And you're going to lose Brooklyn Good. Lets go." Brooklyn rolled her eyes and followed him into the room where they would be paying. They put their information in and saw their names and how many lives they had left pop up on the big screen.
"Ready?" Brooklyn nodded and they exchanged a kiss before running off in different directions. Brooklyn couldn't help but smile as she walked around trying to find her husband. It meant a lot to her that he had decided to recreate their first date. She couldn't believe it had only been a year since they've been together. It felt like much longer but that was a good thing.
As she was walking around one of the walls, she heard a sound from behind her and one of her lives disappear. Turning around, she saw Jon standing there smirking.
"And I'm already in the lead." Brooklyn scowled and shot him, getting one of his lives, making his scowl drop.
"Ha, now we're even. Come and get me, hubby." She ran off laughing as Jon ran after her. Their game ran well over an hour long. They were each down to having only one life left. Brooklyn knew Jon was right on her trail as she running away from him after taking another life.
Jon was right behind Brooklyn. If he could just get a little closer, he would be able to take her last life and finish the game and get his revenge. As he turned the corner where she turned, he stopped suddenly seeing her on the ground, rolling around.
"Brook? Baby what's wrong?"
"I fell and hurt my ankle. Jon it hurts!"
"Jesus." He muttered, going over and dropping to his knees right next to her. He felt responsible for her being hurt. He was the one who told her to wear the boots. Not only because he wanted to win but because he loved how they looked on her but now she had hurt herself.
"Okay, okay relax Brook. Breathe." He said, seeing her eyes shining with tears.
"Can you move it?" Brooklyn shook her head.
"No it hurts." Jon nodded.
"Okay, okay. There's gotta be someone in here that can help us." As he lifted his head to look around, he suddenly heard the noise telling him he lost a life.
"Winner, Brooklyn!" A voice sounded throughout the room as Brooklyn's name flashed on the screen in front of them.
"What the hell?" Looking back down, he saw Brooklyn laying on her back, a big smile on her face.
"I win." She started laughing as Jon's eyes widened.
"Brook, you didn't?" Brooklyn smirked and stood up, jumping up and down to show her ankle was fine.
"I did. That's what you get for tricking me to wear these here." Jon rolled his eyes.
"Jeez Brook, I thought you were really hurt. You're to good at acting." Brooklyn laughed and wrapped her arms around him.
"You're not the first person to tell me that. I didn't scare you, did I?"
"Kind of. I felt bad because I had you wear them but now I just want to spank you." Brooklyn smirked.
"Well then take me to get ice cream and take me home and you can." Jon smirked.
"Deal." Brooklyn giggled as he grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the room.
