Chapter 47

It was Sunday now, which meant it was the last day Dave and Kitten had before leaving for their Monday assignment and returning back to work. Hunter had to leave as well and head down to Raw for tomorrow's show. Stephanie was going to stay home and take care of her baby girl and just do things around the house while her husband worked.

As Dave was packing, Hunter came in and knocked on door. "Hey big man, you all set?"

"Yeah, our plane leaves at nine tonight." Dave replied as he got his shaving items and set them into a small leather bag. He looked over at Hunter who was leaning on the door frame.

"The girls get back yet?" he asked.

"No, Steph said they wouldn't be back until two."

"Where's the little one?"

"Asleep, thank God. You don't know how hard it is for me to put her to sleep." Hunter sighed heavily. Dave just chuckled as closed his suitcase. He shook his head before making his way over to the closet, gathering some of his and Kitten's cloths before throwing them on the bed.

"I'm not joking. Be glad you're not a parent."

"I would actually like to be a parent one day, Hunter."

It was Hunter's turn to laugh. "Yeah, that's what I thought when I was in your situation."

"You're just mad your girls have you around their little fingers." Dave laughed. Hunter gave him a glare which made Dave laugh louder.

"You know it's true."

"Yeah, yeah..." Hunter mumbled. He walked to the room when he noticed something on the bed. It was one of Dave's button up shirts, except this one didn't have any buttons on it. Hunter smirked before looking over to Dave, who was busy packing some of the cloths he had thrown from the closet.

"So what happened before you two were making up?"

"What are you talking about, Hunter?" Dave asked without looking up.

HHH chuckled as he raised up the shirt. "I'm talking about the buttons on this shirt."

Dave smiled and chuckled as well. "That wasn't my doing." he admitted.

"Oh so not only is your girl a Kitten but an animal too?"

"Shut up Hunter. You know what she's like when she in a mood."

"Not better than you, Dave." HHH laughed. Dave shook his head at his friend, smile still present. Kitten had a temper, everyone knew that, but she was just as equally impatient. Things got a little heated the night of their fight and well Kitten and buttons don't mix. Dave chuckled as he replayed Kitten ripping the shirt open to take it off. He froze when he remembered that Hunter had stopped them again for God knows how many times.

"Why do you keep doing that?" Dave growled a few minutes later.

Hunter turned to him with a confused look on his face. "What do you mean?"

"You interrupted us... again." Dave replied.

Hunter smirked. "Oh, I see. Well, it is my house."

"Not even when we're here. You do that constantly."

"Make it a point not to 'get in the mood' when I'm around then" Hunter chuckled. Dave growled and returned back to his packing.

Two o'clock rolled on by and the girls returned a little after. As Stephanie pulled up to the house, she noticed Kitten's smile. She stopped the car in front of the house and turned the ignition off before turning to her friend again.

"What's with the smile?"

"What, oh uh I'm just thinking about how much my life's changed."

"I see, better I hope?

"Yeah, way better. Dave's been a huge help with that."

"Dave is an amazing man." Stephanie agreed as she looked at the steering wheel. Kitten turned to her friend and laughed. Stephanie just smiled.

"Hey, hey, you have a man." Kitten teased.

"I'm not interested in him, silly." she said as she smacked her friend's shoulder. "I just think he really is good for you."

"Oh, yeah... you and me both..."

"What is it?"

"I don't want him to disappear."

"What!" Stephanie exclaimed. She turned her whole body towards her. "What do you mean you don't want him to disappear?"

"I've never had someone who has been in my life for very long."

"Oh, I see. You don't want him to abandon you." Stephanie replied softly. She straightened a bit. "I don't think Dave would do that to you. He's really giving you guys a shot."

"I know... I need to start doing the same." Kitten said.

Stephanie smiled at her. "You're doing great, Kitty. I'm sure Dave feels the same." she said as she put her hand on Kitten's shoulder.

"Now he does. We were so wrapped up in our career that we forgot about us. All the changes really started to effect us."

"We'll you two know the problem now, just work on it." Stephanie replied. Kitten looked over and nodded.

"Are you two going to sit in there the whole time or are you girls coming to eat lunch?" Hunter called from the front door. Startled, the two women began laughing at HHH's antics. Stephanie shook her head before replying.

"Maybe if we had a hand over here" she answered.

"Dave, give the girls a hand, will you? I'm gonna go and check on the pipsqueak." he said a moment later. Dave appeared a second later at the front door. He made his way and opened Kitten's door, who was gathering her things from the car center. She looked over at him and gave him a warm smile as she got out of the car. Dave leaned down and gave her a kiss before shutting the door. He went over and helped Stephanie out of the car before shutting her door for her.

"I have to say Dave, I wish Hunter had your manners."

"Hunter's very narrow minded, Steph. He can't help it." Kitten laughed as she walked over to the trunk. Stephanie laughed as she opened it.

"Or it could be he's not Batista." Dave chuckled as he grabbed most of the bags. The girls both started laughing as they all began making their way towards the house.

They ate their lunches, laughing at one another's craziness. Before they knew it was time for Hunter to drop the two Smackdown stars at the airport. Kitten gave Stephanie a tight hug goodbye before turning to the little girl in her arms.

"Bye sweetie, you take care." Kitten said before kissing her forehead. The baby girl giggled in her mother's arms as she flailed her tinny arms, saying goodbye in her own little way. Kitten chuckled before running the back of her fingers down the baby's cheek. She gave both mother and daughter a smile before turning to Hunter's Hummer in the driveway. She handed him her bags and went to go sit in the passenger seat.

Dave watched Kitten with the baby and began to smile unconsciously. He came over to Stephanie and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you for having us."

"It was no trouble at all. It was nice to see you guys. We should definitely do this again." she replied.

"Definitely." Dave said. He looked over at the baby girl in Stephanie's arms and gave her a smile before getting a hold of one of her tinny hands and kissing it gently. The baby giggled making the Animal laugh.

"Come on big man, you're gonna miss your flight."

Dave let out a low growl but still had a smile plastered on his face. "I swear, every time I'm with a lady." he chuckled as he turned to Stephanie's again. She let out a laugh as Dave shook his head and turned around. He walked up to the hummer, threw his bags in the back and closed the trunk. He waved as he climbed into the back seat of the SUV and closed the door.

Kitten turned to Dave behind her. "You got enough room back there?"

"Yeah, I'm good." he answered. He looked ahead of her and noticed she had her feet crossed on the dashboard. He chuckled. "You got enough room?"

"What..." she looked to her feet and smiled. "Yeah I'm good."

"Hey, feet off the dashboard." Hunter said as he climbed into the driver seat. Kitten shook her head and laughed.

The drive was shorter than Kitten remembered, but it could have been that she was in the backseat instead of the passenger. She shrugged and enjoyed the scenery again, but she couldn't. A certain animal was fidgeting behind her. She sighed before turning to her boyfriend.

"Dave, what are you doing?"

"I can't stretch my legs out."

"We're almost there big man, just wait a bit." Hunter responded.

"You you would think a hummer would have more leg room."

"I has enough room, babe. You're just not the average man" Kitten giggled.

"Is it my fault I was born better than average?"

"No I guess not, but I'm not complaining." Kitten stated.

Dave chuckled and shook his head. "You're too much sometimes."

"And this comes from the man whose better than average" Kitten laughed. Dave kneed her chair making her jump. She frowned at him causing him to laugh.

When the reached the airport they said their goodbyes to Hunter and boarded the plane. As they arrived in the first class cabin, they both noticed that it was more crowded than it usually was. Apparently this was either a party going on or the business class was overloaded so they need come to this class.

Kitten looked back at Batista who was standing behind her putting their bags away. "So much for a peaceful flight."

Dave chuckled. "Don't let them get to you."

"Yeah, that goes double for you." Kitten smirked. Dave closed the compartment door before turning to look down at his girlfriend. He gave her a toothy smile which made her laugh.

"You want to the window seat?"

"Nah, you can have it." Kitten said as she looked around the cabin. This was weird for her. Usually when they traveled they didn't have this many people, not to mention so many suits. It was like wall street which made her shudder a little.

"This is gonna be crazy." she said as she saw everyone was either on their cell phones or laptops.

"You got me here, babe. That's all you're gonna need." Dave smiled as he whispered in her ear. A shiver went down her spine as she turned to face him. He kissed her nose before ushering her to her seat. As she sat down, Dave walked past her to sit next to her. She closed her eyes after buckling her seat belt and resting her head back onto the pillow behind her. She felt Dave's hand and forearm snake its way towards her hand. She smiled as he gave her hand a squeeze.

"You all right?"

"Steph can really shop."

she heard Dave's chuckle. "Yeah, the bags she and I carried were hers. You had, what two bags."

"I didn't buy much, just some new jewelry and a couple of new t-shirts." she replied as she felt the plane take off. She let out a sigh and turned to Dave. She opened her eyes and gave him a smile.

"You don't mind me taking a nap?"

"No, not at all. Sleep, we got enough time."

"No beating the suits."

"I'll try not to." Dave chuckled. She nodded and smiled as she closed her eyes again. She felt Dave's thumb begin to make lazy circles in her hand. She was asleep by the time Dave looked up at her again. He leaned over and kissed her forehead gently.
