As the door slammed quietly closed behind Peter, Kelly felt herself collapse to the floor in tears as he legs lost their strength, in fact, he whole being lost Its strength. Had she just lost the one thing she loved most in the world? She didn't know but she sure as hell hoped not. Rocking back and forth her sobs were the only sounds filling the apartment as her hands hurriedly attempted to wipe the wetness from her face. Anger, guilt and hate all mustering up inside her. This was her fault, it had to be, right? She hated herself, why did she have to have so much drama in her life?
Noticing herself still naked she weakly got to her feet and headed to the bathroom to take a shower. As she entered the dull looking room the only thing that caught her eye was that make-up bag. That which concealed the answer to her future, her fate lay in its hands, well so to speak. She stood still looking at it innocently lying on the sink like it didn't have a care in the world. Her blurry eyes began to sting as more tears wept out of them. She snapped herself away from it only to step into the shower and switch on the water. She couldn't tell if it was hot or cold, her body felt numb so it didn't matter. She stepped back as the water trickles drowned her hair. She wasn't sure whether is was the water or her tears that stained her cheeks as she stood staring down the plug hole wishing the water would wash away all her feeling and fear, in fact just vanish her of this whole nightmare.
-
Peter walked as quickly as he could away from the apartment, away from her. He didn't know what he was thinking. Unable to get his mind straight he fought with himself. The park was where he found himself ten minutes later. He sat on the cold bench, ignorant to the chill it gave him. Looking around he thought of nothing but her, Kelly, the love of his life. He couldn't understand, why did he get so angry at her? Why didn't she tell him as soon as she suspected something? He couldn't hold her responsible for David's actions, perhaps it was David that he held his true anger for. He didn't know. Looking around the empty park his eyes lingered on the spot where he remembered them play fighting on the grass, then on the tree where he not very sneakily hid from her. A brief smile crossed his lips as he thought of her laughter and their happiness at that moment. Something he wanted to spend the rest of his lifetime in the company of. The smile left his lips as he thought of the way Kelly had slapped him. He undoubtedly deserved it, he had called her a slut...oh God, he had called the woman he loves a slut!! It was unforgivable, by his way of thinking anyway. He remembered at the Wedding, well the almost wedding, he wanted to kill David for calling Kelly a slut and now he had stooped that low himself!
His head fell to his hands as his eyes watered. What a mess. He honestly didn't know what to think. He knew that he shouldn't have walked out, walked away from Kelly but he was afraid of what else would be said if he didn't. He was slightly pissed at the fact that she hadn't told him sooner about the possible baby. Oh the baby, another complication. He allowed himself to freely cry in the darkness of the park, nobody was about to see him. He had potentially just lost all that mattered to him most. And what if there is a baby? What would he do? Obviously he would rather it was his but what if it wasn't. Would he be able to love it, would it just remind him of David every time he looked at it? Would Kelly go back to David? NO! Of course she wouldn't. Right? In his confusion Peter found it impossible to be sure of anything. As irrational ideas and thoughts flowed through his mind he failed to distinguish probable from improbable, and possible from impossible. Would he and Kelly ever be the same again?
-
Kelly stood gazing absent minded out of the window, the black night sky was all that met her eyes. Dull just like how she felt. She desperately wanted Peter to walk back through the apartment door, but it wasn't morning yet. She was worried, where was he, I mean he just left and was what? Wandering around all night? This was New York! Anything could happen! She wrapped her dressing gown tighter around her body in an attempt to ease her shivering, her wet hair, of course, wasn't effective in keeping her warm. She rubbed her tired and sore eyes as she heaved a heavy sigh. Where was he? She couldn't even phone him because his phone still lay on the bedside table next to his wallet. At least he's not worth mugging she thought to herself. Not that the thought comforted her! What was he thinking? Would he even come back in the morning? Yes, of course he would! Wouldn't he?
-
Peter sighed nervously as he approached his apartment the next morning. If sitting in the park all night hadn't cleared his head then nothing would. There was no point funning from the situation or even hiding from it. The only way they could get past this was to stay calm and talk it out. Kelly was lying on the bed staring at the ceiling when Peter crept through the door the next morning. As soon as she heard him she bolted upright. Their eyes locked immediately. Neither spoke nor even changed was their expression, all that was recognised was sadness and regret.
"Hi" Peter eventually whispered through the crisp air as he moved to sit on the bed next to her.
Kelly offered only a small smile in return. "Where were you?" she almost cried her whisper.
"In the park" he stated simply.
They both bowed their heads as silence to president again. Kelly had so much she wanted to say, she just couldn't bring herself to say it. The silence began to linger.
"I'm sorry" Kelly eventually managed to blubber through her tears which were now, once again freely flowing.
Peter unable to bear her being so upset before him wrapped his strong arms around her pulling her against his chest as she sobbed freely. He stroked her hair in an attempt to sooth her and calm her, it didn't work
"I don't want you to hate me" she sobbed into his chest slightly shocking him.
"NO!" he pulled her head out so that she was looking him in the eyes as he held her cheeks. "I don't hate you; I could never hate you. Please don't ever think that!"
Using his thumb he wiped away whatever tears were on her cheeks before letting go of her. She sat there, motionless, hoping he was going to tell her it would all be ok. She waited nervously as he turned his head from her and bowed it.
"I hate him." He whispered guiltily.
"I know" Kelly answered knowing he was talking about David.
She put her hand on the back of his neck and ran her fingers through the small hairs that sat there. It pained her to see him like this. He turned himself round on the bed so that he now faced her.
"Kel..." he began but stopped.
Kelly felt her heart jumping as the thought entered her head. "Are you leaving me?" she muttered sadly fully expecting his answer to be yes.
"What!" Peter looked at her with all the guilt in the world, "don't be daft" he said as he took her hands in his, noticing how cold they were. He absent minded rubbed his thumbs over her hands as he searched her eyes. "I was trying to find the words to tell you that I hate myself for stooping as low as David did at the wedding, when he called you a slut. I could have killed him, and now I too called you one."
Kelly could clearly see the regret in his eyes, how sorry he was for even thinking those words about her never mind saying them to her.
"Well I did slap you." She sort of laughed trying to make him feel better.
Peter stifled a giggle.
Peter gently tucked her hair behind her ear and made her look up at him before he began to speak.
"Baby, I am so sorry that I got angry with, I'm sorry that we fought but most of all I am sorry that I walked away from you. I can assure you it will never happen again. We are in this together. If you are, pregnant, then I am here to support you and help you raise the baby, no matter what the situation I will always view it as our child, my son or daughter."
"Oh what are we gonna do?" Kelly sighed to him after a moment, feeling a little more comfortable in the situation.
Peter drew a deep breath, coming back and seeing Kelly again had given him the answer he had been searching for.
"We are going to go into the bathroom and look at the test together." He said rationally after clearing his throat. "We are going to get the answer together."
"Peter? If I am pregnant, will you be happy?" She asked wearily.
"I'll be happy with whatever answer as long as I am with you." He answered honestly.
"Me too." She said, "Though a bigger part of me would rather it was negative. I'm not saying I don't want children with you, I just don't think we are ready, I mean we haven't even found a house together yet."
"I know." Peter agreed. "It would be better if it was negative for the time being."
They sat and looked at each other for a moment. Not talking, just preparing themselves. Kelly was snapped out of her day dream when Peter stood up off the bed and reached out his hand to her.
"Come on. Let's go and find out." He spoke softly. "no point in postponing it any longer than we have to."
She slowly accepted his hand as he helped her off the bed and lead her towards the bathroom.
There it was again, that innocent looking make-up bag which concealed their future. Peter gently took a step towards it and picked it up slowly, turning to face Kelly he started to open the zip. Kelly's eyes were fixated on his fingers as he finished unzipping the case. Just as he was about to open it and remove the test he found her hand on top of his urging him to stop. His eyes moved up from her hand to her eyes as he noticed her frightened look.
"I'm scared." She whispered.
"I know, me too." He tried to comfort her by pulling her into a tight hug and kissing her forehead. "But we have to do this. We will feel better once we know."
He felt her nod into his chest before he released his grip on her. He placed his hand gently on her cheek as he stroked her smooth skin.
"I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too." She smiled back.
Peter pulled the test out of the case and pulled Kelly close to him slipping his arm around her shoulder. They took one last look at each other before he held the test up for them to see and they stared at the result.
Kelly let out the deep breath she hadn't been aware she was holding, as she buried her head in Peter's shoulder and slipped her arms around his waist gripping him tightly.
"Are you okay baby?" he asked after a moment.
Kelly pulled her head out of its position so that she could look at him.
"Yeah," she nodded. "I mean that sign means negative right?"
"Yeah."
"So it means I'm not pregnant?"
"Yeah."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah" he laughed at her.
"Then I'm great." She smiled back before reaching up and leaving a light kiss on his lips.
She reached over and took the test from his hands and looked at it once more before placing it in the bin and returning to where Peter now sat on the edge of the bath. Placing herself on his knee she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and rested her head on top of his.
"I never want to fight with you again." She whispered matter of factly.
Peter smiled to himself before placing a kiss on her upper chest where there was a gap in her dressing gown which exposed her skin. His mouth then moved to place a kiss on her neck, then her chin before he stopped on front of her lips. Her hands moved to his cheeks as she brought his head closer closing the gap between them.
Their lips brushed lightly off each other's as they made light contact with each other. Peter immediately followed up this action by placing several light kisses on her lips before engaging her in a passionate embrace. His tongue ran along her bottom lip as he asked her for entrance, she, of course, complied. Their tongues met slowly as they savoured the taste of each other. Kelly's hands tangled themselves in his hair as the kiss deepened and she prevented him from pulling away. Peter ran his tongue over hers enjoying the taste and feel. He had missed it since the last time.
Moving his mouth from hers Peter kissed his way down her neck tender and lovingly hitting all her favourite spots, lingering on them until satisfied. Kelly moaned lightly as he sucked and licked at her soft skin. They were back to normal. His mouth got increasingly lower as she felt his hands on the tie of her dressing gown. She considered stopping him but changed her mind, enjoying the moment while she could. He unfastened the belt and stopped kissing her as he watched it fall open, her naked body beneath the towelled material only turned him on more.
His mouth sought out her skin again as his lips headed for her breasts. Teasingly he moved his mouth slowly over her skin allowing his lips to tickle her breasts before he took her nipple into his mouth. Kissing it tenderly he made her moan, music to his ears. Kelly's hand found their way to the back of his neck holding him against her and urging him not to stop. His hands found their way under her dressing gown and onto her bare back where he caressed her skin softly.
"Hmmm, Peter...baby...bedroom." she managed to form.
Peter's mouth left her skin as he stood up off the bath taking her with him. His lips met with hers once again in a deep kiss, as their tongues tangoed with each other he gently walked her backward out of the bathroom and towards the bed. As they neared the bed Kelly was so lost in the kiss that she barely noticed his hands sneak up over her shoulders and push her dressing gown to the floor. He pushed her naked form down onto the bed as he broke their lips apart from each other's. She watched him as she fell, he began to unbutton his own shirt. Deciding he was too slow she sat forward and undid his trousers for him before pushing them and his boxers to the floor and releasing his obvious erection.
Once his shirt joined the pile on the floor he joined Kelly on the bed. He lay himself gently on top of her as he met her lips again. His hands wandered up her sides until they met her hardened point where his mouth had been previously. He massaged them gently as he heard his name escape her lips. He pressed his groin against her and almost moaned himself, he could feel her wet and he knew they were both ready.
Withdrawing his lips from hers he looked her in the eyes as he shifted his position between her legs so his tip hovered at her entrance. He placed one last light peck on her lips before he plunged into her slowly. Kelly moaned out loud as she felt him fill her at a pleasurable speed, he too obviously wanted it to be slow. She felt light kisses on her neck as Peter buried his head into her shoulders as he thrust carefully in and out of her. The feeling of him insider her once again was the best Kelly had ever experienced. Her nails dug into his back as her walls tightened around him and she lost control, as did he. Their names were heard in harmony as they completed their experience.
Peter collapsed down on top of Kelly, as she smoothed his hair from his face and both regulated their breathing once again. Their companionship had returned. Slowly withdrawing himself from her Peter rolled over and onto his back, Kelly was about to place her head on his chest when he spoke.
"Baby I just realised that we didn't use protection! And after everything that just happened." He said alarmed.
"It's okay, I'm on the pill just now anyway." She tried to reassure him.
"Oh okay. He smiled, sorry."
Kelly smiled back as she kissed his moist lips. "You don't have to be sorry."
Peter ran his fingers through her hair as her head rested on his chest.
"You tired baby?" he asked gently.
"Yeah, I couldn't sleep last night knowing you were out there alone somewhere." She said sadly.
"I'm sorry."
"I told you not to be sorry." She giggled. "I'm guessing you didn't sleep either?" she asked half rhetorically. "So why don't we just have a nap just now."
"Good idea" he whispered contented as he watched her eyes begin to droop closed.
"I never want to be without you" she whispered lightly as she placed one last kiss on his chest and settled off to sleep.
"You're never going to be." He replied not sure if she was already asleep.
It didn't take long before they both lay in a comfortable deep slumber.
-
Exhausted from their trip the now, once again happy couple sauntered into Kelly's, no, their LA apartment and almost immediately collapsed down on the couch.
"Uh, I wish I could say home sweet home." Kelly sighed as she tilted her head to the side to face Peter.
He just offered a sympathetic smile.
"I used to like this apartment, now there are just too many things to remember here."
"Not all of them are bad though." Peter tried to comfort, "like this very couch, holds good memories for me."
Kelly giggled slightly. "Okay this apartment minus the couch hold things that I just don't want to remember anymore."
"We'll find a house." Peter offered as he pulled her against his body and held her close. "Somewhere we love where the memories will start and finish with us."
"I'd love that." Kelly sighed before twisting her head to give him a kiss.
Both shattered from lack of sleep and the flight they had just taken home they headed to bed where they cuddled together under the covers, lulling each other to sleep with the sense of security that surrounded them.
Between being back at work, dealing with the press and hunting for their dream house Kelly and Peter were exhausted and barely had a moment together. House hunting had to be separately as their busy schedules had them filming scenes at different times of the day and night.
"I'm home." Kelly's voice beamed through the apartment as she returned from work.
"Hey baby." Peter was there to greet her immediately. Taking her coat off her shoulders and hanging it up and placing a sweet kiss on her lips. "Good day?"
"Oh it was alright. What about you."
Peter just nodded his head and implied it was uneventful. "I ran you a bath." He offered.
"Really?" she asked with raised eyebrows.
"Hmm hmm." He grinned as he took her hand and lead her to the bathroom.
"And are you going to be joining me in the tub full of bubbles?" she asked suggestively as she began to undo his shirt buttons.
It didn't take long for them to be stripped and in the bath together with Kelly lying between his legs leaning her back against his chest.
"I really don't think this bath was made for two." Peter giggled as he changed position slightly making her giggle.
"Well when i bought the apartment I wasn't expecting it to be needed for two." She said back slightly sarcastically.
He giggled slightly before turning serious. "So, baby I wanted to ask you about something."
"Okay," she said twisting her neck so that she could see his face.
"Are you sure there isn't anything specific you were thinking you want our new house to be like?"
She smiled at him, "as long as it has a bigger bath tub and you in it, then I will love it."
He smiled at her and reached down so he could press his lips against hers, his mouth opened when her tongue sought entrance as the kiss deepened and passion soared. When he pulled away they both lay slightly breathless as he tried to continue the conversation.
"Well, what if I told you, that i found a wonderful house not too far from here, it's private and secluded, lovely garden, swimming pool, everything we need and a big bath tub?"
"Affordable?" she smiled getting slightly excited.
"We could afford it." He confirmed.
"Then I would say take me to look at it."
"Tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow" Kelly nodded before her lips were pressed to his once again as they tried to make the most if each other the best they could in the small bath.
-
Kelly stared at the house in awe as peter walked her up the long drive hand in hand. This house was huge.
"It's a place!" She muttered as she walked closer towards it.
"Well then it is perfect for you." Peter replied as he moved his hand so it was wrapped around her shoulder. "Wanna look inside?"
"Yes please!" She beamed like a five year old kid getting a treat.
They walked around the whole house hand in hand, fantasising what they could do with each different room, and there were plenty of them. Peter was right the bath tub was massive! Kelly smiled the whole way around the place, over the balconies with their round pillars, the tall class windows and outside the terraced are for a barbeque and table and chairs, then a cute wee garden path leading to an amazing swimming pool and a hot tub. Then grass as far as you could see and trees planted all around making it private.
Peter walked up behind her as she stood on the upstairs balcony looking over the view down to the ocean and wrapped his strong arms around her waist while his head rested on her shoulder, he placed a light kiss on her neck before letting out a happy breath.
"So? What do you think?"
"I think..." Kelly spun around in his arms as he hands locked together behind his neck, "living here, in this house, with you, would be beyond my wildest dreams."
Peter smiled as their lips met because he too loved the house.
"So shall we make an offer?"
Kelly just nodded. "And there is plenty room for if your kids ever wanted to come and stay," she commented half letting him know that she would be alright with that any time.
Again Peter just smiled and kissed her.
-
"PETER!!!" Kelly shouted as she came running through the main set of filming.
Peter immediately turned round away from Josh and the directors to see Kelly running at him.
"WE GOT THE HOUSE!" she shouted at the top of her voice.
Peter's face lit up, they got the house, he and Kelly were going to live together, they got the house! He moved towards her until their arms met, picking her right up off the ground he spun her round in a circle as she squealed. To make herself a little steadier she wrapped her legs around his waist as he spun her and her hand travelled to the back of his neck as she held on tight. When he brought them to a standstill both their smiles were as wide as ever. She leaned her head down not caring that everyone was watching their happy display of affection and captured his lips in hers before parting them and making them meet again several times.
"I love you." She whispered between kisses.
"I...love ...you...too." he replied.
Placing her back on the ground they embraced in a tight hug once again as they tried to let it sink in that they are going to live together in their dream home.
"Can we get back to filming now?" Josh's voice interrupted. "If you guys do your last couple scenes now you can have time to start packing up."
Kelly and Peter did just that they finished their last couple of scenes without too many takes, which wasn't surprising as two out of the three scenes were making out between Sandy and Kirsten, the easiest thing they knew.
Kirsten stood not too far from the front door as she stared up the spiral staircase.
"We did it." Came that deep voice that she knew so well.
"Yes we did." She said proudly as she turned around and wrapped her arms around his waist as he kissed the top of her head. "Everything is as it should be."
"Well not everything" he spoke suggestively as he turned to face her and placed a long lingering kiss on her lips.
"Really?" she played along.
"Yeah, we have a lot of new rooms and more importantly even more items of furniture to christen."
"Wow that is a lot." She laughed as he picked her up and started to carry her towards the stairs.
"Where should we start?" he asked as their lips connected once again.
