May, Thursday 20th

Addison groggily shuffled her way into the kitchen as she rubbed her eyes and gave a tired yawn.

"Morning, beautiful." Pete smiled at her. She smiled and walked over to the side to get herself some breakfast. "Nope." He took hold of her hands. "You sit down."

"Why?" Addison frowned at him as he led her to the table.

"Because I'm making breakfast."

"Oh." She smiled and sat down. Pete smiled and went back to the stove where he prepared her breakfast. "What are you cooking?"

"A full English."

"Yummy." She grinned widely. He started to put the food on plates and carried them over to her. "Thank you. It looks lovely."

"I hope it tastes as good."

"I'm sure it does." She smiled and picked up her knife and fork. Pete smiled back before he poured them each a cup of coffee and carried them over as well. "I didn't expect this," Addison admitted as she began to eat.

"Why not?"

"I just didn't." She shrugged.

Pete smiled softly. "Happy Birthday." He kissed her cheek.

"Thank you." Addison smiled back at him. He smiled and took a sip of his coffee as he watched her eat. She picked her coffee up and took a sip before she went back to eating.

"And?" Pete watched her. "Is it good?"

"It's wonderful." She smiled.

"Good." He smiled back softly.

"Is this my birthday present?"

"One of them."

"I have more?" She smiled at him.

"Maybe."

"Do I get a hint?"

"Nope."

Addison pouted as she looked at her husband. He just smiled at her and didn't say anything. "When do I get my other present?"

"Later."

She sighed dramatically as she finished her breakfast. He smiled and kissed her cheek again before he started to clean away. "This is mean, keeping it from me."

"It's not."

"It is." Addison nodded. "It's mean."

"You just don't want to wait." He smiled as he put the dishes into the dish washer.

"Soooooo? Your point is?" She leaned back and watched him.

"My point is that I am not going to give it to you now because you are impatient."

"But it's my birthdayyyyyy," she whined.

"I know."

"So, you should give me my present now."

"I am going to take a shower now." Pete turned around and looked at her. "So unless you want to join me, I'll see you later." He smiled before he left the kitchen.

"You are mean. I married a very mean man!" Addison called after him.

"I love you too." He smiled before he disappeared in the bathroom. She rolled her eyes before she stood up and left the kitchen as well.

"You know what you're going to wear?" Pete asked as he pushed the door to their bedroom open later that day and walked inside.

"My dark purple dress." Addison sat at her dressing table in a purple lacy thong and a matching strapless bra.

"Okay." He nodded and looked at her.

"You?" She glanced at him through her mirror as she applied some make-up.

"I don't know yet."

"Okay." Addison nodded.

"Purple dress is perfect though." He walked over to his nightstand.

"I'm glad you think so." She smiled.

"Goes with my present." He smiled as he got a box out of his drawer.

"Do I finally get my present?" She turned on the stool to face him.

"Yeah, I thought I'd give it to you now. There are going to be so many people there."

Addison grinned and sat up straighter.

"Here." Pete smiled and handed her the box. "Happy Birthday."

"Thank you." She took the box from him before she carefully opened it and gasped.

"Do you like it?" Pete watched her. "Because I was worried you wouldn't..."

"It's beautiful," Addison whispered as she held up the necklace.

"Want me to put it on?"

"Please." She smiled and walked over to him. Pete smiled and took hold of the necklace before she turned and he put it on for her. "Thank you, it's beautiful." Addison smiled and turned to face him.

"I'm glad you like it."

"I really do."

"Good." He nodded.

"Thank you." She leaned up and kissed his cheek.

"No problem." He smiled softly. Addison grinned and skipped over to her closet. Pete couldn't help but look her body up and down as she moved in front of him in just her underwear. She pulled her dress from it's hanger before she slid it up her body. Pete looked at her before he made his way to his closet and got a pair of trousers and a shirt

"Can you zip me up please?" She turned her back to him and looked over her shoulder. He nodded and walked closer before he pulled the zipper up. "Thanks." Addison grinned and walked over to her collection of shoes. Pete gave a smile before he began to change. "What time does the party start?" she asked.

"We have to leave in twenty minutes."

"Okay." Addison nodded. "I'm nearly ready."

"I bet you won't be in twenty minutes." He smiled.

"Shut up." She looked at him.

"It's true."

"It's my birthday, I get to be late."

"Fair enough. But what's your excuse for the other three hundred and sixty-four days of the year?"

"Because I'm pretty." She grinned. Pete rolled his eyes at her before he took off his shirt and pulled on another one. Addison smiled before she picked up her shoes and placed them on her bed.

"Is my hair okay?" Pete looked at himself in the mirror.

"You're such a girl." Addison rolled her eyes before she rearranged a few strands of his hair.

"What?" Pete looked at her.

"You're worse than me at times." She looked back at him.

"I am so not."

"Oh, you are." She nodded.

"No one's worse than you are."

"Yes they are."

"But not me."

"At times you are."

"No, I always look good." Pete ran his hand through his hair before he turned and walked to the door.

"You don't have to see yourself first thing in the morning!" she called after him.

"Oh shut up."

Addison smirked before she followed him out of the bedroom.

"I can just sleep on the couch if it's too much for you." He walked into the hallway before he picked a pair of shoes.

"I'll just buy an eye mask. You keep the bed warm."

"Forget it."

"Whaaat?"

"Clearly you never had to see yourself."

"I'm always a pretty face." She grinned.

"I wish you were," Pete sighed before he grabbed his phone and his car keys and walked to the door.

"You still married me." Addison smirked at him before she walked out of the front door before him.

"Clearly I had other reasons." He unlocked the front door before he made his way down.

"Oh, and what was that? My Godessness in bed?"

"I hadn't slept with you before we got married nor had I ever woken up next to you." Pete pointed out.

"Yet, you still married me."

"Because I had no idea what I was getting myself into."

Addison just grinned at him as they walked towards the car and got in.

Addison sipped on her drink as she looked around at all her friends in the same room. Some of them were sitting around chatting, others were stood at the bar ordering dinks and having a good time. She grinned as Naomi walked up to her.

"Hey, birthday girl." She smiled widely.

"Hey, birthday girl's friend." Addison grinned. Naomi rolled her eyes at her and sat down next to her. "I can't believe Pete planned all this with my mother."

"I know." Naomi smiled softly. "He did a pretty good job."

"Look what he bought me." Addison showed her friend her necklace.

"Wow." Naomi's eyes widened. "That's gorgeous."

"I know!" Addison grinned widely. "It's so perfect. He must have spent a fortune on it."

"Yeah." Naomi nodded as she looked at the golden necklace.

"I'm not sure how I'll beat this present when it comes to his birthday."

"I'm sure you'll come up with something."

"Yeah, I still have time."

"You do." Naomi nodded before she looked around the room. Addison smiled and finished her drink. "You enjoying your party then?" Naomi smiled at her.

"I am." She grinned. "You?"

"Of course."

"Good."

"I just kind of lost Sam."

"How did you lose Sam?" Addison laughed.

"I don't know." She smiled. "Pete introduced us to a bunch of people and there were a few girls I couldn't stand so I went to get drinks and then he was gone." Addison laughed and shook her head at her friend. "They better not have gone off with my boyfriend."

"Sam likes you too much to go with them."

"Who knows? He's had a drink."

"He wouldn't." Addison shook her head. "He's faithful. He's not a manwhore."

"I know." Naomi smiled softly. "I'm just saying."

"I, on the other hand, have not seen my husband since we got here."

"I've seen him."

"Was he with a bunch of girls?"

"A bunch of people, and a few girls." She nodded.

"What a surprise," Addison sighed and picked up another glass of wine.

"Oh, come on." Naomi rolled her eyes.

"What?" Addison looked at her friend. "He's a manwhore."

"He hasn't slept with anyone but you since you got married, Addison." Naomi looked back at her.

"Yeah, anyway, let's dance and drink." Addison pulled her friend towards the dance floor. Naomi sighed and followed her. Addison grinned before she sipped on her drink and began to dance. Naomi started to dance as well and looked around the room.

Half way through the party and Addison had become quite tipsy from all the drinking and dancing. She was sat on a couch near the dance floor surrounded by a bunch of friends. She continued to giggle at nothing in particular and leaned her head against Naomi's shoulder.

"You want another drink?" Naomi looked down at her. Addison nodded and giggled again. "Okay." Naomi smiled before she got up and went to the bar. Addison glanced around until Naomi returned with her drink and she grinned. "There you go." Naomi smiled as she sat back down. Addison took her drink and took a small sip. Naomi looked around the room and smiled softly as she spotted Sam stood at the bar with Pete.

"How did we end up with such hunky guys?" Addison looked at her friend.

"Well, you didn't really end up with one yet." Naomi pointed out.

"I married one." Addison pointed at her friend.

"But you're not actually together."

"Sooooo?"

"So you haven't got a hunky guy."

Addison pouted and looked at Pete at the bar.

"You know, love is an amazing thing." Naomi smiled softly as she watched her friend.

"I knowwwww." Addison nodded.

"You do?"

"Yep."

"How come?"

"Cause I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee you." Addison grinned at her friend.

Naomi smiled softly as she looked back at her. "I love you, too." Addison's grin widened and she leaned her head back on Naomi's shoulder. "I was more talking about being in love though," Naomi explained.

"Can't I be in love with you?"

"Well, you can." Naomi nodded. "But I'd be slightly worried then."

"Okayyyyyyyyyyy." Addison smiled. "Are you in love?"

"I think so." She nodded again and smiled softly.

"With Sam?"

"Yeah."

"You are so cute!" Addison lightly pinched her friend's cheek and smiled.

"Oh shut up." Naomi smirked.

"But you areeeeeeee."

"Are you in love?"

"Yeeeeeeeep." Addison nodded.

"With who?" Naomi smiled. "Me?"

"Of course." She grinned.

Naomi sighed. "I am talking about guys here, Addi. Relationships. These tingles and warmth you feel in the pit of your stomach when you see this one person or when you touch. This kind of love."

"Yep." Addison nodded again. "I do."

"You do what?" Naomi looked down at her.

"Love someone."

"Really?" Naomi grinned.

"Yeeees."

"You should go tell him." Naomi nudged her side.

"Why?" Addison frowned.

"Because you should both know."

"He can mind read."

"How do you know?"

"Because he can do everything."

"Like what?"

"Everything." Addison grinned.

"Now tell me what everythinggggg," Naomi sighed and downed her drink.

"Everything, everything."

"You're boring."

"Everything that I want." Addison grinned. "Anywhere I want."

Naomi smiled. "That's why you love him?"

"Partly."

"And the other part?"

"I just…do." Addison shrugged.

"Does he know?"

"I don't know." She shrugged again.

"I thought he can mind read." Naomi raised an eyebrow amused.

"He can." Addison nodded.

"I don't believe you."

"Then don't."

Naomi sighed as she looked at her friend before she looked away. Addison sipped on her drink before she rested her head on Naomi's shoulder and watched her husband. He was still stood at the bar next to Sam when a few girls joined them and started talking to them. She frowned and watched Pete turn to the girls. He said something that made them laugh and Sam smirked at him.

"What are they talking aboutttt?" Addison asked her friend.

"Who?" Naomi looked down at her.

"Pete and the girls." Addison pointed.

"Oh. I don't know." Naomi shrugged. "Maybe they're trying to pick him up and have a hot fivesome," she joked.

Addison frowned even more before she got up and made her way over to them. Naomi smiled softly and watched her friend. Addison walked up behind Pete and wrapped her arms protectively around his waist.

"Hey, there." Pete turned his head and smiled at her.

"Hey." She leaned up and kissed his cheek.

"You enjoying your party?"

"Yesss." Addison nodded and glanced at the other girls.

"Good." He smiled before he turned back to Sam and the girls, one of his hands on top of Addison's. She rested her chin on his shoulder and watched the girls.

"Pete was just going to walk off with one of these ladies, you know," Sam slurred slightly as he downed another drink. Addison's face fell as she looked at her husband.

"I was not." Pete rolled his eyes.

"Really?" She looked at him.

"Why would I?"

Addison shrugged and leaned her cheek against his shoulder.

"Come on, Peteeeee." One of the girls smirked, drunkenly. Addison tightened her arms around her husband and placed a kiss on his neck.

"What?" Pete looked at the girl.

"Let's go danceeeeee."

"I can't. I have the birthday girl wrapped around my waist." He shrugged and downed his drink.

"She can dance with Samm."

"Maybe she doesn't want to."

"Oh come on, Pete, pleaseeeeeeeee," the girl begged him.

"Maybe later."

"Fine," she sighed.

"What happened?" Naomi looked at them as the four girls walked off.

"Huh?" Sam turned to his girlfriend.

"They look pissed." She leaned into him.

"Ohhh." Sam grinned and hugged her close. "Pete wouldn't dance with them."

"Ohhh." Naomi smirked and looked at Pete. Addison was still stood with her arms tightly around Pete's waist as she placed random kisses on his neck.

"What you doing?" Pete smiled and turned around to look at her properly.

"Nothing." She shook her head before she kissed him. He was surprised but wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back. "Let's go somewhere more quiet," she whispered.

"Where?"

"Outside, the toilets." She shrugged.

"Okay." Pete nodded. Addison smiled and pulled back from the kiss. "We'll be right back." Pete gave Sam and Naomi a smile before he took hold of Addison's hand and led her outside.

They made their way outside and found a quiet spot where they sat down on a bench. Their fingers were still linked together as they sat down close to each other. Addison leaned her head against his shoulder and closed her eyes.

"I thought you were enjoying your party." Pete smiled softly.

"I am." She looked up at him. "But I want to spend time with you."

"Oh." He looked back at her before he smiled.

"I'd like to spend some time alone with my husband on my twenty-first birthday."

"I didn't know."

"Now you do."

"Yeah." He nodded. "I do." Addison smiled softly and kissed him again. He smiled against her lips and pulled her closer. She wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed sweetly. "How does it feel to be twenty-one?" Pete whispered after a while.

"Not any different really," she admitted.

"Thought so." He smiled softly and kissed her again. Addison smiled as well and kissed him back. He tightened his arms around her and held her close to him. They sat with their bodies lightly pressed to the other as they kissed tenderly. Pete pulled away slightly and looked at her before he placed a few gentle kisses on her lips. She smiled and leaned her forehead against his. "You were all loud and giggly before." He smiled softly as he looked at her.

"Soooooo?" She looked back at him.

"Just saying." He shrugged. "You're quiet now."

"Because I'm with you."

"You're quiet with me?"

She shrugged. "This is more special."

"You think?" Pete smiled.

"Yeah, don't you?" She looked at him.

"I do. I just didn't think you would."

"Oh." Addison smiled softly and nuzzled her nose against his.

"You could be here with every guy in there."

"But I'm not, I'm here with you."

"Yeah."

"Would you prefer I'm in there with the guys?"

"No." Pete shook his head.

"Good." She smiled and kissed him again. He smiled into the kiss and ran his hand over her back. "Thank you for this," Addison whispered.

"The party?"

"All of it."

"It's your birthday. It should be special."

"You didn't have to do any of it though."

"But I wanted to."

Addison smiled softly as she looked into his eyes

"I wanted it to be a special day."

"Thank you for everything. It really means a lot."

"You don't have to thank me."

"I do." She nodded.

"No." He shook his head and pecked her lips.

"Why not?" Addison whispered into the kiss.

"You just don't have to," he whispered. "I'm happy you're happy."

"Thank you, just, thank you, Pete."

He smiled softly and kissed her again. She cuddled into his side and tucked her head under his chin. He kept his arms wrapped around her and took in the scent of her hair. Addison smiled softly and closed her eyes as she enjoyed being in his arms. The music and the voices from inside floated out and they could hear the others having a good time together.

"I want to stay like this for a while," she whispered.

"Okay." Pete nodded. She smiled and breathed in his scent. They stayed like that for a while, just sitting in each other's arms in silence.
