Chapter 2: I Love You Will Still Sound The Same.

"hey babe, how would you feel about going to Maine this weekend?"

"If this is another trick to get me to go to another one of your family reunions no way. I am still finding stripper glitter in my ass crack, what family even has a reunion at a strip club any way? I am pretty sure the only good thing that came out of that was your nephews first words, and you know those words were Stace? they were 'Shake that ass for papa girlie.' even worse, he said his first words were at eight. Eight Stacie!"

"correction he was 9 and Rome wasn't built in a day you blonde waffle! Plus its not even about my family, its Cynthia-Rose's wedding! She's getting her ass married this weekend down in Maine!"

"O my gosh! No way! Lemme see!"

Aubrey continued to grab the little white note out of Stacie's hand and started to read it on her own. Stacie flopped down on the white couch and patted the seat next to her, motioning for Aubrey to join her. But Aubrey was too excited to sit, she continued to jump up and down with the widest smile plastered on her face.

"O my god Stace! This is so awesome! We are gonna be able to see all of the Bella's again! God I can't remember the last time I got to have a drink with Chloe. And ugh! I wonder how Beca is doing!"

"I know.. and even better.. we will get to see who they are bringing with them. I also heard Beca and that DSM gal are getting it on, that's one sight to see huh? Who even is the Michelle Matt anyways? I wonder if she is hotter than me, I remember Cynthia was all up in my goodies back in the Bella day"

Stacie got up from the couch and grabbed the letter out of her excited girlfriends hand, she spoke as Aubrey began dancing around in place excited and grinning. Stacie read over the note and went over to grab Aubrey in an embrace before she knocked over a vase again with her flailing arms. Stacie hugged Aubrey from behind tossing the note onto the nearest coffee table and kissed her neck trying her best to calm the blonde. Aubrey grabbed at the hands that were around her waist and turned around to face her partner and lightly pecked at her lips.

"We better start packing babe! And please don't wear anything showing hm? your mine and I would love to keep it that way for as long as I can. But when you show off everything you own you make my job 100x harder."

"Pfft please. Since when have I EVER worn anything reveling."

Stacie laughed at her own comment knowing the irony behind it. She broke away from the blonde embrace and they both moved to the bedroom to prepare their things, ready for the trip down to Maine.

"Besides, I want to see Cynthia-Rose's face when she knows she cant touch my goodies anymore. Make her sweat ya know?"

"Yes I know my love but still, we are gonna be there to celebrate Cynthia, not make her wish she wasn't getting married alright?"

Stacie flopped on the white covered bed and grunted into the pillow at how controlling her girlfriend could be at times. She was used to it but sometimes it could really get on her nerves. Aubrey crossed her arms in front of herself, frowned and stared at her girlfriend who was breathing heavily into her pillow. Sometimes she felt awful at how controlling she could be and she knew that she really couldn't help it at times. All she really wanted was to keep Stacie as hers. She made her way over to the side of the bed and playfully smacked her girlfriends ass knowing it would give her the attention she wanted. Rioting in her own way Stacie didn't move, the only movement she made was flinching her ass at the sudden contact. The lack of attention challenged Aubrey and she accepted it. Aubrey climbed onto the bed beside her girlfriend and played with her hair before rubbing her hand up and down her back. When Stacie still ignored all of her attempts she moved to the one thing she knew best, singing.

Getting up from the bed Aubrey turned on the stereo that was across the room to one of the songs that had always reminded her of her beautiful Stacie.

_"Could you see yourself, growing old with me. Watching my hair turn to grey? Could you live with me, in my mistakes. And the ones I have yet to make?"_

The song flowed from the stereo and Aubrey sang the lyrics right along with the song. Her voice sweet and soft it of course got Stacie's attention. Stacie smiled into the pillow and her tongue knotted. She couldn't say anything and at the same time she didn't want to. She slowly raised her head from the pillow and turned to see her beautiful girlfriend singing to her from the end of the bed. She softly laughed at herself as she heard the words float past Aubrey's beautiful lips and watched carefully taking in the wonderful image of her girlfriend serenading her with one of her favorite songs. The first song they both ever agreed on.

_"When the bills pile up, and time test out love, we will stay forever in love. We'll stick to our guns, our grip will loosen up, when we stay forever in love. So when our eyes have seen their better days and our hearing starts to fade, put your arms around my neck and your heart on my chest. I love you will still sound the same." _

With those lyrics Aubrey made her way to sit next her girlfriend, her still singing softly. She kept eye contact with Stacie's beautiful brown eyes and ruby lips the whole time. She sang the whole song, putting meaning behind each word and verse. Stacie bit her bottom lip and laughed, she watched as her beautiful girlfriend made her way to walk around the bed and sat next to her. As the song came closer to the end Aubrey had her face inches away from Stacie's. Stacie could see the sparkle in her eye and she could hear the love behind the words. Her singing voice always had soothed Stacie, when she had her nightmares, when she was upset. It was Aubrey's way of keeping her safe and it had always worked.

_"i_ _love_ _you will still sound the same"_

Stacie shuddered at the feeling of Aubrey's warm breath on the skin of her cheek, the sound of the guitar floated in the air as the last chord was played and silence hit the room. Aubrey broke the silence speaking in a soft, low tone in her girlfriends ear.

"I am really sorry baby, I don't mean to be controlling. It took everything I had to ask you to be mine that day, and when you said yes I knew that I had to do everything in my power to keep you. I just.. don't want to loose you that's all... Be mine?...now and forever?"

"Of course sweetheart, I am sorry for being stubborn. I understand. But know this, I wont ever let myself loose you. Not now, not ever, I don't mind you being controlling. As long as I'm yours I wont ever mind. I love you"

"I love you too, more than you could ever know."
