The weekend had came already. It had been a busy week.
They were up late just about every night packing and unpacking in the new house and on Wednesday when Patrick didn't have work thats all the two did while Jacob was at day care. They didn't have anything left to pack and very little to unpack.
Courtney and Patrick had agreed to leave all furniture in the loft in the loft and as far as Patrick's things go well they were going to store it and get all new furniture.
It wasnt like either had a lot anyway. The furniture people had moved the last of their things into the new house. One of the rooms were being used as a spare while the other an office for the two of them.
Jacob's room was going to get done in various shades of blue. Courtney and Patrick room was done in shades of brown. The living room was various shades of brown as the kitchen was done in black and white to match the black marble counter top and the white cabinets.
"We need to go to the grocery store!" Courtney exclaimed as her and Patrick sat in their room unpacking boxes.
It was the last room that had to be done.
The rest of the house was unpacked earlier on in the week.
"Yeah. You want to just go and I will finish unpacking or wait until later?" he asked her .
"No go now but you are coming!" she exclaimed.
"Fine!" He said as he stood up.
She walked down the hallway and peeked in Jacob's room where he was.
"Hey what are you doing?" She asked as he looked up at her and smiled.
She couldn't help but to smile back at him.
"I playing with Thomas!" he said looking down at his train table with all the train tracks and train cars.
"I see that! You want to go to the store with me and Patrick?" she asked him tilting her head to the side.
"Can I bring Thomas?" he questioned.
"Yes but only one Thomas this time!" she exclaimed.
He nodded his head in agreement and picked up the new shinny metallic one she had just got him last week.
"Ready?" Patrick asked her.
"Ready." Courtney said as Jacob followed behind her down the steps.
"Be careful!" Patrick said scared that the little boy was going to fall down the steps.
"Let's go." Patrick said opening the front door.
Courtney grabbed Jacob and carried him to the car and strapped him in. When they arrived at the grocery store they got out and Patrick got a buggy to put Jacob in.
"Awww look! You are getting so good at this!" Courtney exclaimed.
"Really?" Patrick asked her.
"Yes." She said smiling back as she placed Jacob in it.
They walked in the store and she spotted Carly within an instant.
"What is Carly doing here?" Courtney wondered.
"Maybe shopping." Patrick answered.
Courtney laughed.
"Not in a grocery store. Get real. Thats like saying you shop at Victoria Secret for underware!" Courtney exclaimed.
"Hey how did you find out?" Patrick asked her as she laughed.
Carly looked over and spotted her best friend.
"Courtney!" Carly exclaimed running towards her.
"Hey Car." Courtney said hugging her.
"Why are you here?" Courtney asked her curiously.
"Well you see part of the program to become better mentally I need to pick up new hobbies so I thought doing my own grocery shopping could be one of them since I like going shopping and its for a good cause! Lainey says that buying these gorgeous and I mean gorgeous diamond earrings I want from Tiffany's isnt a probable cause you know since the whole me trying to stab Reese!" Carly said as Patrick tried hard not to laugh.
"Um Courtney me and Jacob will meet you in the can food isle." Patrick said pushing the cart down the next isle.
Courtney just shot him a look and rolled her eyes.
"So Patrick! Dr. McHottie! Want to tell me about him?" Carly asked raising her eyebrows.
"Well what do you want to know?" Courtney asked her.
"Are you constantly at his house or is he constantly at yours and I didn't know he had a kid!" Carly exclaimed.
"Thats Jacob a kid Im watching until he has a home and for the past two months its been back and forth but thats all done changed." Courtney said looking at her.
"What do you mean change?" Carly asked curiously.
"We um brought a house together." Courtney said with a smile.
"Oh my god!" Carly exclaimed.
"Yeah." Courtney said bitting her bottom lip.
"So have you um ahem?" Carly said as Courtney laughed.
"No." She simply stated.
"But you's moved in together?" Carly was confused.
"Mmmhmmm." Courtney said nodding her head.
"Have you at least seen you know his ahem?" Carly asked as Courtney continued to laugh.
"You have a mind of a three year old!" Courtney said looking at her.
"Well there are some things you should know about people before you go moving in with them! I mean if he's not going to satisfy you then why keep them?" Carly asked Courtney.
"Is this why you've been with so many men?" Courtney asked her.
"Hahaha you still arent funny Courtney even with me being psychotic!" Carly exclaimed.
"Okay Carly you win! Yes I have and that is as much information I am giving you!" Courtney exclaimed as she began walking away.
"Yeah babe now I dont believe your first answer!" Carly screamed after her as the sound of cans hitting the floor came over the isles.
Courtney peeked around the corner and couldn't believe it.
"What are you doing?!" She exclaimed as Jacob stopped laughing and Patrick looked at her.
"Discounting!" he said back to her.
"By throwing cans on the floor?" she asked.
"Yeah. They are damaged so you get them half price!" he exclaimed.
"You seriously cant be that cheap Patrick Drake!" She stated.
"Im saving us money for his college fund!" he said as Jacob clapped his hands.
"Oh god let me make it through this grocery store alive!" Courtney said looking up as she pushed the cart down the other end of the isle.
"Well well well. If it isnt Patrick Drake and my wife!" a voice said behind them as Courtney rolled her eyes.
"What did I do to deserve this?" She asked herself.
"Yes Jaxs?" Courtney said turning around.
"My lawyer told me you were moving." Jax said looking at her.
"I did yes I did." She said nodding her head.
"Oh really? Well its nice to know now." he said looking at her still.
"Why does it matter?" She wondered.
"Well you see it all matters because of our divorce. I also heard you were cohabitation with Dr. Drake here." Jax said.
"Look I told you I dont want nothing except a divorce and what I do in my personal life is no longer your business! Now do you have stalker to go play on Elizabeth?" Courtney asked him.
He just laughed.
"Well you see Lucky had slightly a problem similar to the one you did. They split up and she moved in with me." Jax said.
"Good can you leave me alone?" she asked him.
Patrick kept his mouth shut.
Its what Courtney told him to do after all.
"Thanks!" she said as she turned around and began pushing the buggy again.
"Oh and Jax have a nice night!" She said with a smile as she turned the corner.
Patrick tried hard not to laugh as he followed Courtney.
They just stopped by the pizza shack and picked up a large cheese pizza for dinner since it was getting late and Jacob had to go to bed soon. After unloading the groceries and putting them away she rubbed her eyes.
"You look tired." he exclaimed kissing her neck.
"I am. Its been a rough day!" she said yawning.
"How about I run you a nice hot bubble bath and give you a neck massage to relax you?"
He whisper in her ear as she smiled.
"I could go for that!" she said back to him.
"Okay. Put the milk away as well as the cheese and I will go run your bath water." he replied as he broke away from her.
"Okay." she said watching him leave the kitchen and listening to him go up the steps.
When she was done putting the groceries away she walked up the steps. She walked into the master bedroom and heard the water running and then getting cut off. Patrick walked out of the bathroom and smiled when he saw her standing there.
The lights were off and the only lights were the ones from the candles in the bathroom he had light just a few minutes ago. She tilted her head to the side and smiled at him as he smiled back flashing his dimples.
"Thank you!" She said giving him a hug.
"Dont worry about it. Go ahead take your bath." he said as she nodded her head and walked into the bathroom and got undressed as she pulled her hair up into a clip she slowly stepped into the bath tub.
Courtney closed her eyes as she suddenly felt hands that had been lotion massaging her neck and boy did it feel good. Twenty minutes later and he had stopped. His hands were beginning to hurt. She turned her head to face his.
"Thank you." she said mouthing the words instead of actually saying it.
He leaned into her and gave her a soft gentle kiss on the lips and pulled away. Her eyes were still shut as she slowly opened them to look at Patrick Drake. Her mind told her she was tired as her heart and body told her she wanted more.
She shut her eyes again and leaned into him as he caught what she was doing and met her lips half way. Courtney lifted her hand from the bubbly water and placed it on the side of Patrick's face as she continued to kiss him. He did the tango with her tongue as she did the same thing back.
He pulled away and looked into her blue eyes. He saw desire. Want. Need. Love. She just looked up at him before he flashed his dimples at her and she smiled. He reached his hand out and helped her get out of the tub as she wrapped herself in a towel.
Patrick wasnt sure why she even bothered with the towel because when he got done with her it would've been pointless. He just stood their in front of her as she held her towel around her body and smiled. She kissed him as he kissed her back while his arms were wrapped around her body and made their way to the bed.
Courtney pushed him back against the bed and began sucking on his neck knowing it would leave a mark. She slowly unbuttoned his shirt moving her hands slowly across his chest knowing deep down it was teasing him badly.
When she was done with his shirt she began kissing him up the chest slowly as her fingers ran over his body and then found his belt and started to unbuckle it. Finally when she was done teasing him because she could no longer wait she made her way back up to his mouth and kissed him. With out any hesitation he flipped them over to where he was on top and started their long night of passion and love.
