A/N: This is really more of a filler chapter. Got some drama coming up in future chapters :)
"What are you doing sweet pea?" Jon asks when I answer my cell phone. Honestly? Right now I was buried in a sea of boxes trying to get this stupid house packed and ready to go. Johnny was really disappointed when I put in my notice, but he insisted if I ever came back I'd have a job there which was kinda cool.
"Still trying to fit this house in a box." I sigh, sitting down cross legged in the middle of my bedroom floor. "Where are you?" I ask him.
"Colby and I just shoved the last of my boxes in the blazer. We've got the bed on the roof and I think we'll drop it off at Goodwill." He tells me and I almost instantly panic.
"No!" I exclaim quickly. "Fuck, you can't get rid of that bed, it's the only one I can get a good night sleep in. We'll take my bed to Goodwill instead." I say. "Jon, I need your bed." I insist.
"Alright..." He chuckles. "I won't ditch the bed than." He agrees. "I guess we'll head your way than and we'll just switch out beds."
"Ok, I'll see you in a few minutes." I say to him.
"Love you."
"I love you more. Bye." I tell him, hitting the end button on my phone.
"How's your packing coming? Any better than mine?" Kelly sighs from the doorway. Her blonde hair was a disaster and she was flushed red from something.
"Jeez you're fuckin red." I laugh. "Jon was about to throw away his bed. I was totally like no, I need that bed like you don't understand. I have my closet packed." I say answer her question and motioning towards my empty closet.
"You should keep your bed too, and we can put it in the spare room." She suggests, "In case Joe or Nate or someone visits and crashes."
"Yeah that's a good idea. I got the trailer cleaned out, we can fit some junk in there behind Cherry and TJ." I say to her. Cherry and TJ were my two personal horses, and they'd of course be making the move with us.
"Maybe we'll put the beds back there, and some furniture... We can shove junk into the back of your pick up too." She adds. Kelly drove a dodge Charger, so unfortunately her car wasn't going to be much use to us. "If we have to we'll rent a Uhaul." She shrugs.
"We might have to." I say to her. "I mean we might be able to fit the living room set and the beds in the trailer, but I'm sure Jon's blazer can pull a Uhaul." I state.
"Ladies, we're home!" Colby calls from downstairs. Kelly grins at him when he approaches, "You look like a hot, sexy mess." He comments, smoothing out some of her crazy hair.
"Sweet pea..." Jon groans, falling into my bed. "My apartment is officially empty." He says, pulling my mink blanket up to his chin. "And I am officially ready for bed." He adds with a soft sigh.
"Guess you're stuck here for a few days until we move." I say to him. "We're going to keep this bed, and put it in the spare room." I inform him, giving my mattress a few pats.
"Mmmkay." He murmurs, eyes already closed. "We could to go bed." He suggests, I only roll my eyes.
"Should we order in for dinner?" Kelly offers, "Pizza... Chinese... Wings?" She throws out as some suggestions.
"My vote has pizza." Colby nods.
"I can do pizza." I agree, and Jon just groans a 'mmmhmmm'.
"I'll go order." She chuckles, turning and walking back downstairs. I push myself up off the floor and snuggle against Jon in the bed, peppering his face with soft kisses.
"I love you..." He murmurs, barely audible. "And I love this mink blanket you got for Christmas..." He adds with a small smile.
"Mom got you one too, did you pack it?" I ask him.
"Yeah it's in the back seat." He replies. "Might bring it in though, not sure we can share just one." He chuckles. My parents had gotten us each a mink blanket for christmas, they were so super soft and so warm. Mine was a soft pink zebra pattern, and Jon's was Steelers themed since that was his football team.
"Oh no way, you're not hogging all my blanket." I scoff at him.
"Well at least I don't hog the whole bed." He rebuts.
"Bull shit!" I laugh. "I sleep right up snug to you all night, no bed hogging involved." I argue. It was true I was either right up against him on my side or he was flush against my back. Sheesh, we could easily sleep in a twin bed... But thank god we don't have to!
"Alright, alright." He grumbles, wrapping and arm around my waist. "You win." He adds. "Your mom text me today, congratulating me on getting into FCW."
"She was very excited for you." I inform him. "I called her yesterday and told her everything about that we were headed South soon. She can't wait until you make it big."
"Someday sweet pea." He nods. "And I'm gonna spoil your ass rotten."
"Do you want kids Jon?" I ask suddenly, and slightly out of the blue. It wasn't something we'd discussed at all, not because it was a touchy subject just because it never came up. Now that'd we'd been together over a year, I was moving to Florida with him and he was the man I saw myself with 10 years down the road I think it's a subject we could discuss. He opens and eye and glances at me, not speaking for a moment. I didn't think he was going to answer, Jon wasn't great at communicating about serious subjects.
"Do you think I'd be a good dad?" He kind of chuckles and scoffs at the same time.
"Yeah..." I ponder thoughtfully, "I think you'd make a great dad."
"Yeah?" He questions, a little surprised.
"Yes." I smile.
"Yeah, I want a family." He finally says. "I mean not right this second, but when I'm stable with my job and I can support you and a couple mini me's I'd knock you up in a second." He grins and I roll my eyes. Leave it to Jon to be sooooo romantic about it.
"I'm very proud of you." I smile at him, and he raises his eyebrows at me. "You just discussed a topic I thought you'd run away from without even a blink. A few months ago, you'd have ran out of this bedroom and lost your shit." I laugh.
"You bring out the good in me." He smiles, shutting his eyes again.
"Pizza is here!" Kelly shouts from downstairs.
"Hungry?" I ask him.
"Starving." He replies. "And tired. We're going to bed after I fill my stomach." He informs me as we slide out of bed. "Two boys and a girl. The two boys before the girl, so I don't have to worry about no one harassing my baby girl." He tells me as we walk down the steps.
"Ok." Is all I reply with, walking into the kitchen. Honestly I'd pop out as many as his heart desired if it made him happy, gender though I couldn't make any promises. "Have you guys talked about kids? You've been together a long time." I ask Kelly and Colby. They'd been together nearly 3 years.
"We haven't like, sat down and talked about it." Kelly shrugs, glancing at Colby. "I mean we both know we want a family and kids, but the details aren't important until we're ready for that step."
"Did you really just talk about babies with Jon?" Colby asks, his jaw dropping a little.
"I already told her, two boys and a girl. Boys first." Jon says, his voice slightly muffled by the pizza he had shoved in his mouth. Colby doesn't reply but he mouths 'wow' and looks at Kelly who was giggling a little herself.
"Three is a lot to push out." Kelly comments, looking at me.
"I'll be used up and fat by the third." I warn Jon, taking a sip of my Pepsi.
"And I'll love you all the same." He smiles.
"Does your Blazer have much room left in it?" I ask curiously, changing the subject.
"I've got the backseat left empty." He replies, and the front I guess since you'll be driving your truck down there.
"Ok, so we can shove a bunch of boxes in his truck, and mine will have room in the back and front seat too." I say to Kelly. "I'm betting if we play Tetris well enough, we can fit the furniture in the trailer and make the boxes fit in yours, mine, and his truck. We could even squeeze a bunch in the feed area up front by the horses."
"Where you putting them mangy things anyway?" Jon asks and I glower at him. Really though, Jon loved Cherry and TJ. I've seen him come to the barn so pissed off from a show, brush Cherry for an hour and literally watch the anger melt off him. I've said it before and I'll say it again, horses and dogs are two of the most therapeutic animals out there.
"I made plans with the stable I kept TJ at when I lived down there before. They were happy to hear I was coming back." I say to him. "And I called Sette to talk to her about working for Coyote again... She almost begged me to come back. I think I have a gig the day after we get there." I tell Kelly.
"Who's Sette?" Jon asks curiously.
"While I was going to college down there I worked for this photography company, Lissette was my old boss and a good friend." I explain to him.
"That's great of her to give you your job back." Colby nods.
"Yeah, I'm kinda of excited. I missed working there, way easy money." I say.
"Thats great sweet pea." Jon smiles. "You ready for bed?" He asks, finishing off the last of his beer that he'd pulled out of the fridge.
"You better go out and get your blanket, cause you ain't stealing mine tonight." I tell him.
"I won't steal it." He grins, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. "Night guys." He calls behind us. "You'd really wanna have kids with me?" He asks, once he'd shut the door and was crawling up the length of the bed.
"At this point, I don't think I can see myself having a family with anyone but you." I answer honestly. "It's not anything we really need to think about for a few years yet." I tell him, pressing my lips against his.
"My dad was a jackass. He was never around when I was growing up." He shrugs. Jon had opened up about his childhood a lot in the past couple months and even more so after spending time with my parents. "I want to be there."
"And you will be." I smile.
"Yeah." He agrees with a thoughtful smile. "We'd make badass little kids." He chuckles and I laugh. Couldn't argue with that!
