27: Leaving Normal.
Surprisingly enough, Billy was happy Jasper and I did the crazy Vegas wedding. Of course, we had to do various interviews and had our pictures plastered over every damn supermarket tabloid in existence, but the press finally calmed down about it. Now we were just constantly followed by paparazzi, but at least we could be public about our relationship.
Our next show was in Colorado, at Red Rocks Amphitheater and it was sold out. Finding out that piece of information was epic. I was so excited I could barely sit still and Jasper was literally holding me in my seat. The concert was awesome, the fans even sang along to a few of the songs. That was amazing to me and I swear I had to hold back the tears when they sang along to our music.
As we said our thank you's to the crowd, Jasper came behind me and whispered 'I love you' in my ear, making me blush and smile. The crowd saw this gesture and went crazy, suddenly chanting 'kiss, kiss, kiss' like mad. I looked over at him as he gave me a sly smirk and shrugged, 'Why not give the crowd what they want.' I smirked back and nodded, he spun me to face him and dipped me back holding onto me at the back of my knee and head, his lips crushed mine and he kissed me firmly for a few seconds before pulling back and grinning like a damn fool at me.
After a scream that would rival Boy Band fans, we bowed offstage and went back to our hotel.
The next couple of days we spent playing tourists. Denver was nice, there were hardly any paparazzi and the people were for the most part pretty friendly. Not to mention, it was very Coco friendly, the hotel even had a pampering gift for her!
We had interviews to do with a few different radio stations, and we even played an unplugged version of 'Spin' and 'Lace' for one radio station.
Before I knew it, it was almost time to continue the tour. We had to hit Utah, New Mexico and Oklahoma before we could head back to Seattle, then we would regroup as Billy had a few band related things to chat with us about. Bella told me they had exciting news for us. But first Jasper and I were going to take in some of the Denver culture and shop the 16th Street Mall. Jasper went to see when Emmett was going to be able to join us and I decided to take a long hot shower.
Afterwards, I lay on the bed struggling to zip up my shorts, or button them. Fuck, what the hell, am I bloated? I never get bloated! I growled in disapproval as Bella walked in.
"Hey Ali, you having a hard time there?" She gave me an odd look as I gave up, flinging my arms across the bed.
"Stupid shorts won't zip up!" I pulled a little harder and managed to button them and then sucked in so I could zip them as Bella looked on. Finally they were on and I just lay there panting for air.
"Maybe Carol got the wrong size?" Bella asked, looking at me with concern as I struggled to get off the bed.
"They're a size two… I've been a size two for about, I dunno, 7 years now? Maybe Jazz is making me fat." Bella laughed at that. I pulled off my nightshirt tossing it into the pile of laundry and pulled a tunic style tank on before noticing Bella's look. She was quite literally gaping at me. "What?"
"When did you have your period last?" She asked sounding kind of alarmed. I thought about it, I hadn't had it since we first started touring.
"A week before we left for New York." I whispered. Two months, I hadn't had a period in two months. Holy shit.
I sat on the toilet waiting, waiting for Bella and waiting for Jazz. I didn't even tell Jasper why, I just sent him a text;
Need You - A.
b there in 5 u ok? - Jazz
No. Plz hurry. 3 A.
Bella was on her way to Walgreens to get me a pregnancy test and I was quite literally holding back my tears. Honestly, I was scared to death. We hadn't been married long, only two weeks as a matter of fact, our careers were just getting off the ground and he was fighting for custody of his daughter. Basically, this was really and truly not the best time for us to be having a baby.
Jasper got back first and found me in the bathroom, I had to bite my bottom lip to keep from crying in front of him. "Baby what's wrong?" He asked pulling me into a hug. I couldn't say anything so I just shook my head and prayed that Bella would be back soon.
I didn't have to wait long. Bella came bursting through the door about a minute after Jasper, holding a large bag she was sorting through.
"I didn't know what kind to get, so I got one of every kind." She said as she dumped the contents on the counter. Then she looked up and saw Jasper, she covered her mouth with her hand. I buried my face in Jasper's stomach. Shit.
"Wait… uh… baby," he pulled away slightly making me look up as he was looking at me, his eyes wide with shock, "baby?"
I started to cry hysterically, it was like a dam had burst. I tried to tell him I might be pregnant and that I hadn't had my period since the tour started but I doubt anything intelligible came out. Thank God for Bella at that moment.
"Jazz, Ali might be pregnant." How could she be so calm at a time like this? I buried my face back into Jasper's shirt and felt his hand start to rub circles on my back, calming me down a little.
"Yeah, I kinda gathered that cuz... Baby," I felt his hand stroking my cheek. "Look at me please." I did and he smiled warmly at me. "I love you... It'll be okay. Okay?"
"No it won't." I sobbed, burying my face again and feeling stupid for crying but I really couldn't help it. I heard vaguely heard Bella say something to Jasper but I was too wrapped up in my thoughts until I felt Jasper pull away. I looked up when he stepped back and held a blue box in front of me, it said E.P.T. on the front.
"Baby, you need to uh… pee on the stick?" I watched him look over at Bella for a moment and then look back at me, I was completely mesmerized by how adorable he looked, dammit Alice not a good time to swoon. "Then we can talk okay?" I nodded and he kissed me. "Please stop crying baby." His thumb stroked my cheek.
"I'll try." I sobbed out.
I chewed my lip, feeling the tears roll down my cheeks as we waited in the tiny room for the results. I swear to God I could feel the seconds ticking by.
"It's been two minutes Ali… you wanna look at it?" Bella asked her voice kind. I shook my head and pointed to Jasper, I was too afraid to look.
"Baby you sure you don't want to look?" I looked up at him, the hysterical crying had finally ceased but that didn't stop my lip from trembling. In my heart I already knew, I never skipped a period. Ever.
"I'm sure." I felt a tear escape and roll down my cheek, Jasper being the man he is wiped the tear away with his thumb and kissed my temple before going to look at the test. He looked at it for a few long seconds and took a deep breath.
So uh... Bells? Is the plus sign a good thing?" His hand reached around and rubbed the back of his neck.
Plus sign means positive, positive means-
"That means she's pregnant." Bella told him in an unwavering voice.
HOLYMOTHERFUCKINGSHIT!
I felt myself start to shake and heard sobbing before I fully registered it was coming from me. Jasper dropped the stick with a clink onto the porcelain floor and wrapped me in his arms. He pulled me into his lap, rocking me as he placed kisses on my hair and face.
"Shh… baby, it'll be okay. I promise it'll be okay." He tried to speak in a calm reassuring voice while I continued to sob into his shirt.
"No it's not a good time. What about Jordy? The band? My family? Your family? Oh God." Hiccups were fragmenting my sentences and I was still crying pretty much hysterically, I'm sure my face was red from the tears.
"Baby please, stop crying. We'll work this out, I swear. Don't worry about the outside stuff okay?" He rubbed my arm slowly up and down, I knew he was just trying to comfort me. I took a shaky breath in and let another hiccup of air out.
"I can't stop…" I couldn't calm myself, it felt irrational how hard I was taking this, how much it was upsetting me.
"Just think… you have another reason to redecorate." I could hear the smile in his voice, but the thought of decorating a nursery sent me right back down the path of hysterics.
"I don't have time to…" I looked at his beautiful face as he gave me a smile that seemed to humor me and pressed his forehead against mine, looking into my eyes.
"We'll make time. I promise."
He was being way too sweet about the whole thing. I pouted at how unfair this was. I'd been good. I wasn't even planning on trying for another year. "I was… am on the pill... this isn't supposed to happen."
"But we wanted this eventually right?" He interjected. I closed my eyes and nodded, I had to ask him if he wanted it too, there was no way I was gonna be like Maria. Ever.
"Are you... Happy?"
"Why wouldn't I be? I have a beautiful wife who I would kill for... a baby girl who reminds me to slow down and appreciate things," I felt his hand touch my belly, "and we're gonna have a family, baby." I could feel more tears coming on as he smiled at me and leaned down to place a gentle kiss on my lips. "I love you Ali."
The tears spilled over as I cried happy tears this time and laughed at how stupid I felt for crying over everything. "I love you Jazz."
He hugged me tightly to him. "Jesus baby, you scared me." He whispered in my ear, I pulled away to look up at him.
"I'm sorry... how did I scare you?"
He cupped my face in both his hands, rubbing my tears off my cheeks with his thumbs. "I was starting to think you didn't want this." His response was completely honest; he thought I wouldn't want to have his baby.
"I just want you," and anything that you want, I'll do. "I was scared, I still am scared." I rubbed the back of my hand across my face, getting rid of the remaining tears that clung there while smiling at him.
"Trust me, I'm scared too... this is kinda my first pregnancy too." He shrugged and blushed, I had forgotten that Maria didn't let him do anything while she was pregnant with Jordy, other than pay the bills. Jasper is going to go through everything with me I decided; Doctor appointments, ultra sounds, childbirth classes… I felt my heart start to beat wildly as I remembered all those shows I'd seen on the Discovery channel with women screaming and giving birth to eight pound babies.
"How big was Jordy?" I asked, suddenly very frightened. Jasper's eyes went wide.
"Uhh… I uh... Jesus, I don't know." I was going to say something until Bella interjected.
"Nine pounds and twenty-three inches long." Shit. I can't have a nine pound baby, I'm tiny. I looked at Jasper and whimpered. Why the fuck did I get knocked up by this big guy?
He chewed his bottom lip. "Well, maybe it'll have your genes and be small?" I couldn't help but scowl at yet another of his favorite small people jokes.
"Well I hope it doesn't have your fat head." I retorted making him laugh.
"Ohhh 'fat head' huh?" I felt his fingers start to wriggle in my side and the sensation made me laugh as he pinned me under him on the ground. "You love my fat head Mrs. Whitlock."
I was now laughing so hard that I felt like I needed to pee, he needed to stop, "I do, I do... Jesus stop, my shorts are too tight I might pop the button!" He stopped immediately and looked at me, his eyebrows furrowed in concern.
"Is that safe? I mean the tight pants and stuff?"
I shrugged at him from my place on the ground, "How am I supposed to know?"
"Uh, can I suggest something here? How about you call your doctor?" I looked up at Bella as she looked down at the two of us.
"Uh yeah, that would be good... when will we be in Seattle next?" I asked her, still lying under Jasper as he pulled up my shirt a little so he could kiss my belly, I smirked. He's too fucking cute sometimes.
She didn't look up from her Blackberry as she spoke again, "Actually in a week. And the final hearing is two weeks from tomorrow." Jasper locked eyes with hers. I knew what that meant, his final hearing for custody of Jordy. I nodded.
"Okay."
Bella called my OBGYN in Seattle and made an appointment for me for the day we got back to town. Jasper asked if he could come with me to the appointment and of course, I said yes. I didn't know if I could handle this without him.
After leaving Colorado the bus took us to Oklahoma, where I discovered I suddenly got sick whenever I smelled anything greasy. Or anything that smelled too strong of any fragrance really.
After Oklahoma was New Mexico, where I forced my band-mates to come to Roswell with me, I had to see all the UFO related stuff they had there. That's where I found out going in or near the space themed McDonalds was a bad idea all together and I ended up being sick most of that trip. In truth, I was sick almost all the time. Morning sickness my ass! I want to rename this 'all day long' sickness and after I get that done, I wanna curl up and fall asleep somewhere. Jasper kept telling me I looked beautiful, everyone was constantly telling me how much I glowed. I swore if one more person said that, I was going to dunk their head in the toilet. I felt like crap.
But as they say, the show must go on. So we did our concerts and I would try to converse with the fans, but I was always so damn tired. Growing Jasper's child was taking all the energy out of me. I was really emotional too, I cried about the stupidest things like when Bella bought me a pregnancy journal so I could record things I wanted to remember about carrying this baby. And I kept having really vivid dreams, not good dreams either. I always woke up in a cold sweat with Jasper shaking me and looking at me wide eyed.
Needless to say, when Bella announced that Billy had decided to spring for a private jet for us, I was ecstatic. Only one thing I didn't count on… Altitude sickness. Told you, I am just sick all the damn time. Jasper was so good about it though, he stayed with me whenever I needed to puke and held my hair out of my face. Then he'd bring me water or toast and do all the cute things Jasper does.
Once we arrived back in Seattle; Jasper, Coco and I went to the condo. I had gotten the news about Jordy's room being finished while we were in Roswell and I was excited to see what Jasper thought.
After dropping our luggage off in the master bedroom, I dragged Jasper towards the second bedroom, intent on getting a smile from my new husband.
"Close your eyes baby, it's a surprise." He gave me a smirk, but nodded and did as he was told; I opened the door to the mostly pink room, I almost cried because it was so perfect. It was pink with green and white accents and yes, there were horses everywhere, figurines and toy horses were scattered around the room. And then there was the best part, I had found a special painting that took up most of one wall. It was a cowgirl and her horse and it was personalized with Jordan's name, it looked perfect. "Okay Jazz, open your eyes."
I watched him as he opened his eyes and walked into the room, mouth agape. "You... this whole time…" He stammered.
I chewed my lip nervously as he looked at the poster that made it so obvious this room was for his daughter. "Do you like it? It was kinda presumptuous of me... but I mean I kinda figured... she needed a room somewhere." I shrugged as he enveloped me into his arms.
"I love it Ali, I just never imagined." He stated looking around, eyes wide as he took everything in.
"You never imagined what Jazz?" I asked looking up at him.
"That you'd do this… I mean, up until Vegas I didn't know shit."
I felt the corner of my mouth quirk up when he said that. "I love you Jazz, I have for a while now actually." He pushed the hair off my face as he reached down and pressed his lips to mine.
"I love you too Ali." He said quietly and smiled.
"I've loved you since our weekend together Jazzy." I told him, looking at him through my lashes.
"Really? Why didn't you say anything sooner?" I almost snorted at his question, he's a funny guy.
"'Cause everyone knows the guy is supposed to say it first."
"We are?" He asked sounding confused, I nodded.
"'Cause guys take longer to figure out their emotions, so you let them say it first so you don't scare them away."
"Well shit, if I'd have known that I would've told you that day in the rain rather than wait till I asked you to marry me." He smirked at me, making me roll my eyes and smirk back.
"I probably wouldn't have believed you then anyway." I told him kissing his lips briefly, he responded with an eyebrow.
"I'm not talking about Forks Ali."
"I know love."
He nodded a little. "So obviously you're okay with my daughter moving in, but what about me?"
I pulled his dress shirt out of his jeans pretending to be mulling it over as I ran my fingertips just inside the waistband, rubbing his lower abs, sides and then the very top of his ass, smirking at him as he bit his lip. "Hmm... did you want to move in?"
"Well... I'd like to live with my wife ya know. And I heard Bells saying something about moving in with Ed, and Rose asking Em to move in at the house."
"And I have this cozy little condo, all to myself and Coco of course." I said in a slightly seductive voice, pulling Jasper out of the room as I slid my hands up the back of his shirt and kissed his nose. "You already have a closet baby."
I watched his eyebrows disappear into his hairline. "I do?"
I looked down and blushed a little bit as one of his hands made its way under the hem of my tunic and started to gently rub my mini bulge I had dubbed Jasper, Jr. "The empty one, in the master. Jordy's is already filling up with the clothes I've been ordering in for her."
He pushed me up against the wall in the hallway and tilted his head, cupping my cheek with his free hand. "Well now we need to plan for the baby's room huh?" I nodded in response as his lips landed on mine, our tongues meeting and twirling. One of my hands ran up and down the back of his shirt as the other fisted in his hair, trying to bring him closer to me.
I broke the kiss panting, "Shit! We gotta go to the doctor."
He leaned down and cradled me in his arms as I pulled my Blackberry out of my pocket. "What time was the appointment?" I looked through the appointments Bella had set up for me.
"It's in an hour."
"Do you want anything before we get there? Might as well be early, right?" He sounded anxious, making me laugh.
"Yeah, are you going to carry me there?" I asked him happily, wrapping my arms around his neck and kicking my feet.
"At least to the car and then into the office," he told me, grinning as he leaned down to pick up my purse and then head for the door. I yawned.
"Good, then maybe I can take a nap. I swear carrying your child takes its toll on a girl."
"I'm sorry baby."
"It's 'kay." I told him gently, resting my head on his shoulder as he pulled me closer to him. "I think he just likes to cuddle with you too."
He placed a kiss on my forehead and I could feel his smile. "You're sure it's a boy, huh?"
I nodded in response to his question. "It has to be, he's already a pain in the ass just like his daddy."
"Hey now, that's not nice to say to the man who's holding you." He glared playfully at me and swatted my bottom softly. I opened my mouth in mock horror at him.
"You wouldn't drop the woman who's carrying your potentially ten pound child would you?"
He laughed then, "Not in a million years." I moved my head and kissed his lips firmly, pulling away just as he tried to deepen the kiss. I smirked at him, as he scowled a little at me.
"Good, I was worried," I hugged him tighter. "I think…" I started just as I yawned, "we need a TV in the bedroom, that way you have something to do while I sleep." He stepped off the elevator into the parking garage, walking towards the Commander.
"I've got my laptop Ali, but if you want a TV in there we can just bring mine from the house, couldn't we?"
"Yeah…" I gasped as I thought of all the stuff at his place that would have to be crammed into my small condo. "What are we gonna do about all the stuff on your walls now?" He shrugged in response, his face contemplative.
"Storage I guess. Maybe someday we'll get something bigger and have a music room or something." He looked at me chewing his upper lip.
"Sounds good… like maybe in a year or two we can buy a house... maybe outside of Seattle?" He nodded, answering my question while setting me down to unlock the car door.
"Whatever you want baby." He said, half heartedly while holding the car door open. He was upset about something. I could feel the tears start to well up in my eyes as my emotions got the best of me.
"You don't like that idea?" I asked my voice breaking.
"Baby shh," he held my face between his hand and he leaned down to gently kiss me. "I love that idea, I just want you happy okay?" He said quietly as I wiped the tears from my eyes. I felt like an idiot.
"God Jazz, I hate crying." I gave a frustrated sigh as I got in, wishing as I buckled myself in that I wasn't so damn emotional. I looked at my sexy as fuck husband who was being so sweet about all my little emotional outbursts, as he started the jeep. "You're gonna divorce me by the end of this."
"Nope." I watched his face as we drove out of the parking garage. He had a slight smile on his face as he drove.
"Was 'Bitcherella' this emotional?"
His face dropped, "I wouldn't know Ali, she left remember?"
"Yeah, but I thought she came back at some point?" I pressed, hoping for some information.
He leaned his arm on the door and spun the center of his ring as we sat at a red light. "By the time she came back, she wouldn't let me near her. So I honestly don't know what to tell you, I'm sorry." He sounded agitated. I felt really bad, I pouted a little at him.
"Sorry to bring it up Jazzy, I just feel like I am crazy."
"It's okay baby, I just really don't like comparing you to her cause she'll never be half the woman you are." He affirmed, glancing over at me and giving me a tender smile which I returned.
"Thanks. I just don't have anyone to compare with, now I really wish Edward had crazy mutant sperm so he could knock Bella up." That declaration made him laugh.
"Maybe our moms? I'm sure Momma's got a shit load of complaints from carrying me."
His mom had shown me his baby pictures. I leaned back and marveled at how such a cute, chubby baby turned into the man driving this car, "Yeah, but you were such a cute baby."
He snorted a burst of laughter, "Everyone's a sucker for blond hair, blue eyed children," he joked while shaking his head.
"Ooo and black hair and blue eyes too." I told him, batting my eyes at him.
"I'd rather black hair and green eyes, like you." He stated, kissing the back of my hand.
"I had blue eyes till I was a year old, then they turned green." I told him with a grin. "I'm surprised my mom didn't ever show you pictures. Oh wait, I never left you two alone long enough."
"Well in your mom's defense you've never taken me home either." He looked over at me and gave me an eyebrow.
"Are you sure you want that?"
"Well sure, after all they're my parents now too." He laced his fingers with mine and smirked at me.
An idea hit me suddenly as I remembered Momma Whitlock's birthday was coming up. "I forget, when's Momma's birthday?"
"Monday the 10th, why?"
"Uh baby, that's next Monday."
He nodded, "I know that."
"Were we gonna do anything for her?"
He gave me a small smile and shrugged. "I figured she was happy enough that we got married. Why? You have an idea?"
"You haven't said anything about my being pregnant right?"
"No, I figured that was something you wanted us to do together."
I grinned and nodded at him. "Well according to what Bells told me, we might be able to get a picture of the baby today."
"That would be cool." I could see the strain as he tried hard to bite back the goober like grin he had plastered on his face.
"Well, we can make a photocopy and put it in her birthday card and you can fly her and Jordy up and we'll have dinner at my parents... or maybe at the condo, I haven't decided yet. Then we'll give her the card and see how long it takes her to get it." I finished telling him of my plan and grinned at him to see him nodding his head in agreement.
"I like it."
"And that way the parents all find out at once...since Ed, Bells, Rose and Em already know." He gave me that delicious half smile of his as he nodded again.
"That makes sense." He stated as he continued to drive. I thought of the various reactions our parents might have, I was fairly sure that our moms would be pleased. I started to get really excited.
"Oh my gawd! I like it!" I blurted out randomly, causing Jasper to look at me oddly and humbled me a bit. "Sorry, just excited." I explained, bouncing a little in my seat.
"Well good, cause we're here." He said, smirking at me as we pulled into a parking spot outside a four story building connected to Seattle Grace Hospital.
After sitting in the waiting room for what seemed like hours and filling out paperwork asking us questions, almost impossible for us to answer about our family's ancient history we were finally ushered to a room with blue walls and pictures of babies dressed up as animals. I was given a small paper gown and told to sit on the exam table and Jasper settled himself in a chair nearby.
I was introduced to Dr. Lisette Frust, the OBGYN that Bella set me up with. Then she gave me a physical exam, which was uncomfortable because Jasper was right there. He kept looking at me wide-eyed during the whole thing, I guess it would be rather shocking to watch, but hey, he wanted to be here and I had offered him an out before everything started.
After she finished she pulled an ultrasound machine into the room and set it up next to me. Jasper came and stood next to me as she squeezed a bit of warmed goo on my lower abdomen, I looked down to see the slight bump evident between my hipbones. She pressed the Doppler on top of the goo and rubbed it around, pressing into my skin as she watched the screen.
After looking at the screen for a few minutes she turned it slightly so we could see it. Mostly I saw black with white outlines, then a white speck that was fluttering, below the picture a bunch of lines that was running across the screen.
"Is that the baby?" I asked her pointing to the dot. She smiled and nodded at me.
"Looks like you're about eight weeks along, giving me a due date of March fourth." She told us, I looked at Jasper who stared wide-eyed at the screen. Not saying anything. Dr. Frust moved the Doppler away and cleaned up my belly as his eyes met mine, tears shining in them as he smiled at me. When she was finished cleaning the goop off me he leaned over and kissed the spot where the Doppler had been moments previously before kissing me gently on the lips.
"I love you, Ali." He whispered.
"I love you, Jazz." I told him, smiling before he leaned down and kissed me again.
When we got home we called Momma Whitlock and invited her up for her birthday. We made arrangements to wire the money for the two tickets to Seattle then we called my folks and invited them over for my first dinner party at the condo.
Afterwards, Jasper told me he would make us dinner and asked me what I wanted. After deciding on steak and apple turnovers, to which he chuckled, I went to the bedroom to nap while he went to the store. Apparently I was out for awhile, when I finally did wake up it was only because a pair of warm, strong arms were wrapped around me. I turned to see sparkling blue-green eyes looking at me.
"Dinner's ready baby." He told me in a quiet voice. I smiled and kissed him, realizing as I stood up that I'd had a very sexual dream and was still slightly aroused from it. I smirked a little at my husband. He is so getting molested once we were finished eating. Dishes could wait.
The steak was as good, actually better than I expected. He also made twice baked potatoes and broccoli, all delicious and made me very happy my man could cook. He gave me my apple turnover and I ate it greedily, licking my fingers when I was done. I grinned at him as I sucked sugar from my middle finger a little more seductively than I needed.
We carried the dishes to the sink. I was a good girl and helped him rinse and put dishes into the dishwasher. As he washed his hands however, was an entirely different story.
"It's hot." I mused, pulling my tunic up over my head and shimmying out of my shorts, tossing them towards the laundry room. I turned and stood in front of him in just my Agent Provocateur polka dot bra and panties, hands on my hips. "Is it hot in here to you?" I asked him, tilting my head at him slightly and biting my lower lip.
"Yes... definitely hot in here," he responded, his eyes growing dark with lust as his tongue darted out and licked just the center of his lower lip.
I gave him a sexy smile before I faked a pout, "All those clothes probably aren't helping you."
"Nope, probably not... What do you suggest?" He smirked at me. I raised an eyebrow and smirked back.
"Take them off." I told him in a stern voice as I pulled myself up onto the counter. He pulled his vintage tee shirt up over his head and pulled off his belt, tossing them over the counter. He moved to stand between my legs and I leaned back, bracing myself with my palms behind me.
"Nice ensemble you have there Ali." He said softly, sliding his index finger between my shoulder and bra strap.
"I almost bought baby pink heels to go with." I told him nonchalantly, moving my leg so my foot was on the edge of the counter and my knee was up to his shoulder.
He ran his hand down my thigh and slid it under the side of my panties, "Nah, you don't need the heels," he told me as he nipped at my neck, trying to distract me from his hand unsnapping my bra behind me. "In fact you don't need this either," he mused. He watched as his hands pushed my bra down and he bit his lip as he looked at my bare breasts.
I scowled at him making him smirk, and I pulled the bra off and tossed it. "There are a few items you don't need either." I told him in a matter-of-fact tone. He leaned in and started to leave open mouthed kisses up my neck to my ear.
"Is that so?"
"Yes." I purred, hooking my fingers into the waistband of his jeans.
"Oh, you want me out of my pants do you?" He gave me a cocky smile as he popped the button on his jeans. I bit my lips together to keep from yelling at him to just fuck me already.
I locked eyes with him as I pushed the offending jeans off his hips and heard them hit the floor. "Jazz, I want you." I purred, pushing my ass to the edge of the counter as I licked my bottom lip eagerly. I watched his eyes flicker before he grabbed my panties roughly.
"Up." He growled. I lifted my hips and he pulled the panties off me tossing them behind him just as he crushed his lips to mine, kissing me passionately. His hand kneaded my breast gently as I used my feet to push his boxers down. He moved his lips to my neck and slowly made a trail of love bites and kisses while his hands pulled my hips forward a little.
I moaned out as I felt him enter me, my hands lacing themselves into his hair. His lips sucked lightly on my collarbone as I rolled my hips to meet his thrusts. His hand pressed firmly into my lower back as his other hand gently kneaded my sensitive breast, making me gasp and moan and buck into him faster, my head rolling back.
He grabbed my leg at the knee, pulled it up and placed it on his shoulder, driving into me harder as he panted out profanities and how good it felt. I couldn't talk, I just groaned and leaned back, bracing my elbows on the lip of the breakfast bar, pushing back with my hips as hard as he was giving, bringing myself closer to release. His thumb found purchase on my clit and rubbed circles into it, making my entire body shake and my mind to go blank from the power of my orgasm. I rode it out as he followed with his own release a few minutes later, taking the lords name in vain as he did so.
I leaned forward and kissed him hungrily. It was a bit sloppy, but right at that moment I didn't give a fuck, it felt incredible and he was kissing me back with just as much enthusiasm.
The next few days were a flurry of activity, we were getting ready for Jasper's final custody hearing in a little over a week, doing interviews and press things for the band, and of course, Jasper was moving in with me.
As we decided on the last few things to put into storage, I put up a few of the items we had collected as a couple on our tour and I stumbled across some pictures I had taken during our weekend together so many months ago.
I sat on the soft rug in the living room and flipped through them slowly, taking in how even back then we seemed to look at each other adoringly.
"What'cha doing Ali?" Jasper asked coming over to me, I guessed he had finished taking the last of the items to the storage unit. I smiled at him in greeting.
"Looking at pictures of us."
With that he settled himself behind me using the crook of my neck as a resting spot for his head, he wrapped his arms around me and rested his hands lightly on my belly. "Whoa! I still had black hair." He said surprised as I flipped through the pictures, I nodded in agreement, looking at my long beautiful hair with sadness.
"Yeah and look I had long hair." I pointed out, leaning into him as my sadness grew. I hope I don't fucking cry over cut hair, I thought fighting back the hormone induced ever present tears. As if sensing my emotion he kissed my temple and soothed me.
"We look happy." He stated quietly, I nodded in agreement, chewing my lip.
"Even back then we look like we're in love... these are from our weekend... you know before the shit hit the fan?"
He nodded, understanding what I meant as I flipped to another picture. I think it was taken right before I went home for the night, I had my arms wrapped around him and he was looking down at me smiling. "So this is what everyone else saw?"
"I think so…" I told him, smiling at the memory.
"I love you."
I turned my head to see he was staring at the picture, so I kissed his scratchy cheek. "I love you too. Can I ask you something?"
"Of course baby." He said, glancing at me and giving me a sexy half-smile.
"Do you remember taking this picture?"
He looked back at the picture. He removed a hand from where it had been tracing lazy patterns into my skin and took the picture in his hand to study it. "Don't you remember?"
"I do." I told him, still watching his face. "I was wondering what you were thinking about looking at me like that?"
He looked at me over the picture, "That I was in love with you."
"Even way back then?"
He nodded, his face serious, "Yeah, I think even though I didn't recognize it for what it was, it was always there Ali."
That made me smile, and I could feel the tears start to well up in my eyes again as I pressed my lips to his. "You're perfect Jazzy."
"Only because of you Ali." He said quietly, dropping the picture to cup my cheek as he leaned down and kissed me. Once again in our own little heaven.
