It's now Wednesday and we are at the condo for some relaxation. Aly's gotten up before everybody and gotten herself something to eat, taking it outside so she can sit on the swing and eat. She took her laptop and phone with her and started to make arrangements for an early birthday/sweetness payback surprise for Mike. I get up and wander outside, catching the end of her conversation on the phone.
"...thanks so much for helping me with this. And remember, not a word out of you about it if he calls you or anything. I know, I'm just making sure. Haha, alright. See you later Chris. Oh I will.
Haha, bye."
"Morning." I mumble, stretching.
"Hey Dolce." Aly looks up, smiling.
"So what were you talking to Chris about?"
"He was helping me with a surprise for Mike."
"Oooh what kind of surprise?"
"Concert tickets."
"Ohhh."
"He's been so sweet lately plus his birthday is coming up so I wanted to do something for him so I decided to take him to see Def Leppard."
"Ohh, nice."
"My lips are sealed." I add, sitting beside her.
"Thank you. Hey is that a little bump I see?" Aly asks, poking my stomach gently.
"Is it? I didn't even check yet."
"Looks like it." She smiles.
"Oh boy, I can just see Alex now."
"He's going to be thrilled." Aly laughs.
"Oh yeah. I'm gonna let him find out for himself, not actually tell him."
"That will be funny." She giggles.
"Yup. But for right now, he's sleeping like a baby."
"Mike was too when I left our room."
"He's probably cuddling with the pillows now." I laugh.
"I wouldn't doubt it." She laughs too.
"Oh I can't wait to see his face when he sees the tickets." She adds.
"He's going to freak out." I grin.
"Oh I know."
She giggles and continues eating.
"He'll probably attack you in happiness." I add, making her laugh.
"I bet he will."
"And then he'll be so much of a dork at the concert."
"Oh yeah. Him and Chris both."
"You're gonna have to take pictures or video, I have to see what happens."
"I will."
"Oh that'll be so much fun."
"I know. I was going to get tickets for you and Alex too but I figured that you two would want the alone time."
"Yeah, I think he'll want a lot of that now after finding out about the little bump."
"I'm sure." She laughs.
"It's going to be a fun day...for the both of us."
"Oh yeah."
"I wanna go back to bed, but I'm not even really that tired anymore."
"Well go lay down with Alex, you can always cuddle instead of sleeping."
"True..."
"Oh go on. You know you want to." She laughs
"Yeah...I think I will."
I get up and go back inside, leaving Aly by herself once again. I quietly walk into the bedroom, making sure not to wake Alex and I go over to the bed, climbing into it and under the covers. As soon as I get close, Alex unconsciously wraps himself around me.
"Someone's cuddly in their sleep." I mutter quietly.
Alex shifts and mumbles incoherently. I smile before snuggling into him, burying my face in his neck. I doze lightly, still aware of everything but too content to move. After a while, I start to feel Alex's breathing change, knowing then that he's starting to wake up.
"Morning." I murmur quietly.
"Morning." He says back, yawning.
He kisses me gently.
"Sleep good?"
"Yeah. You?"
"Of course."
"Good." He smiles.
"I don't wanna move though."
"We don't have to."
"Yay." I mumble.
Then I start to occasionally press my lips to his neck. I giggle when his pulse starts to get faster.
"Can't save that for later?" He asks.
"Nope."
He groans.
"It's morning fun, let me have it."
"...okay."
"Plus, you never know when and if I'll stop."
He swallows heavily.
"I love it when I make you all nervous and everything."
"Haha." He says dryly.
"It's fun for me."
"I know it is."
I then stop and just lay my head on his shoulder.
"We're gonna be here by ourselves for some time tonight."
"Really?"
"Uh huh. Don't tell him anything, but Aly got Mike concert tickets for tonight."
"What concert?"
"Def Leppard."
"Oh man. He's going to flip." Alex laughs.
"Oh yeah."
"That's going to be funny, watching his reaction."
"Yup."
"Good though. I like having time alone with you." Alex smiles.
"Oh, you're gonna love the alone time...that's for sure."
He grins and kisses my head. One of his hands starts to wander a bit. He moves it down to my stomach like he usually does and once he feels that something's different, he makes a face. I try so hard not to smile, because I would end up giving it away. Alex moves, a curious look on his face as he pushes up the bottom of my shirt. I grin as I watch him. His eyes widen as he sees that I'm now sporting a small bump. A wide smile spreads across his face.
"I didn't know about that until Aly pointed it out. I didn't want to tell you directly, I wanted you to find out for yourself."
"Finally you're showing." He says happily.
"I know...now."
Alex moves me off his shoulder and slides himself down. He then starts to kiss and rub my stomach.
"And there you go." I laugh.
I giggle as he continues.
"So happy..." He mumbles against my skin.
"I knew you would be, I can tell."
"I love you." He smiles up at me.
"I love you too." I smile back.
"You're not gonna let me go are you?"
"Nope."
"I didn't think so."
"You're going to have to at some point, I'm still in my pajamas you know."
"Who says we can't be in pajamas all day?"
"No one. I don't know about you, but I like to be not wearing pajamas all day."
"Darn."
"So you're gonna have to let me go so I can change."
He pouts.
"You can be affectionate again after I'm dressed." I say.
"Although I don't think you can wait." I add.
He smiles sheepishly.
"Alright, let me go now."
He reluctantly lets go. We both get dressed though Alex has to try really hard to keep his hands to himself.
"Quit." I laugh.
"Sorry. Can't help it." He chuckles.
"Uh huh."
I finally manage to get dressed. But I don't get to go far, since Alex practically dragged me back over to the bed.
"Down boy." I laugh.
"I wanna go get something to eat for breakfast, you're gonna have to wait a little longer." I add.
"Aw. Okay."
"But this should hold you over until then." I smile, pressing my lips again his and pulling away before he could respond and leaving the bedroom.
He groans before going after me and I laugh. At the last second though, he ends up catching me.
"Minx." He presses a kiss behind my ear.
"You love it."
"Because I love you."
"And I love you."
I turn my head and gently kiss him.
"Why don't you go sit down and I'll make you something." He suggests, after pulling away.
"You sure?" I ask.
"Yeah. I got it love." He smiles.
"Alright." I nod, moving and going to sit down in the living room.
Alex disappears into the kitchen to make some food. Not too soon after, Mike comes out of the bedroom awake and changed.
"He lives." I joke as he passes by.
"Haha." He says dryly.
"Aly's out on the swing I think."
He nods and heads outside. She's relaxing on the swing, her head back and eyes closed as she rubs her stomach absentmindedly.
"Hey." He says, as he sits down next to her.
Her eyes slide open halfway.
"Hi." She replies, scooching closer and laying against his shoudler.
"Tired?"
"Just relaxed."
"Ah ok."
He slides his arm arounc her and she puts her legs across his lap, snuggling into his body.
"So what were doing with your computer?"
"A surprise."
"You'll find out later." She adds.
"But I want to know now...please?"
"Nope...sorry."
"Pleeeeeeeeease?" He starts to touch her skin softly.
"...Mike..." She shifts.
"...I can't." She adds.
"Why not?" He whines.
"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you."
"Yes it would. I'd just be surprised now instead of later."
"Well you have to wait until later, I'm sorry."
Mike whines again, burying his face in her neck.
"Mike...no."
He starts to kiss and nip. She bites her lip, trying not to moan.
"...M-Mike..." She struggles to scold him.
"Tell me and I'll stop." He smirks.
"...no..."
"Then I'm not stopping."
She groans, trying to get away. But it's really no use since he has a strong grip on her now. He steps up the torture a bit and she whimpers.
"...tell me."
She shakes her head, biting her lip harder. That just causes him to step up the torture even more. She can feel herself wanting to give in but she tries to fight it.
"You...have to...wait."
"Nooo...tell me..."
"I told you...I can't."
"More torture for you then."
"It doesn't matter, I'm not telling you until later."
"You sure about that?" He smirks wickedly, and she swallows heavily.
"I'm sure."
"You don't sound very sure."
"How...can I...when you're...doing that?"
"You've got a point."
She whimpers again as he circles around a sensitive spot on her neck.
"Still not telling..."
She bites even harder on her lips as he concentrates on that spot.
"Okay okay, I'll tell you. I'll only tell you one thing, but that's it."
He pauses.
"It's tickets."
"That's all I'm telling you."
"You'll find out the rest later." She finishes, squirming and trying to get him away from her neck.
"Awwww."
"You'll live."
"But anyways, there's some good news about Dolce." She adds, changing the subject.
"What's that?"
"She's finally getting a bump."
"She didn't even know it, I pointed it out to her."
"Really?"
"Yeah." She nods.
"I would've thought that she would see it."
"I guess she wasn't looking closely." She shrugs.
"Maybe, but any plans for today?"
"Not until later tonight."
"You wanna work on the nursery today?"
"Sure, that sounds good." She smiles.
"Since the paint fumes have had time to disappate and everything." She adds.
"Right. And if we need to go out and buy some more things today we can." He agrees.
"Okay." She nods, brushing her lips against his just barely for the first kiss of the day.
"Before we even work on it, is there anything specific that we need?"
"Ummm..." She pauses, thinking.
"Well we already have the crib so we don't have to worry about that."
"Alright."
"Most of the other furniture is here, just tucked away in that back room. I think the only other furniture we need is a rocking chair." Aly says.
"We can get that today."
"Bedding for the crib too. I held off on that because I wasn't sure how the colors would turn out and what not."
"And I'll let you pick out stuffed animals and toys and everything."
Mike grins.
"How about I go get dressed and we go out to Babies R Us or something?" She asks.
"Sure."
"You have to let go though." She giggles.
"Oh right." He chuckles, letting go.
"One last thing." She says before leaning in and kissing him thoroughly, even sneaking in a bit of french kissing.
She pulls away and leaves him dazed on the swing, giggling as she carries her things inside. She says hi to me and Alex as she passes us sitting on the couch, heading into the bedroom to put her things. She sets her things down and rummages through her clothes for something to wear. Once she finds something, she gets changed and then goes into the bathroom to do the usual stuff in there. As she's doing her hair, she giggles while picturing Mike's face after she left him on the swing. After she finishes in the bathroom, she walks out and Mike has finally moved from the swing and is in the bedroom. She tries to stifle a laugh and fails as she goes to find some shoes.
"You're alive."
"I almost thought you died." She teases.
"Haha." He says dryly.
"Love you." She sings lightly.
"Love you too."
"Even if you're killing me." He mumbles.
"You know you love it."
"I do."
"You always get me back for it anyway." She points out.
"Uh huh."
She walks over and draps her arms loosely around his neck. She rubs her nose against his. Then she starts to feel Savannah moving around.
"I think somebody is trying to say good morning daddy."
He smiles and he looks down at her stomach, placing a hand on it.
"Good morning to you too."
She smiles and leans into him.
"No hiccups today?"
"Not yet."
"I'm sure she'll get them at some point. She always does." She giggles.
"Of course."
"Okay I know you like to feel her moving but we should go while I feel motivated."
"Right right." He nods, removing his hand.
They grab what they need and say bye to me and Alex before leaving for the store.
"Okay, where to first?" Mike asks, once they get to the store and walk in.
"Um...how about we start with the small stuff and save the big stuff for last? We don't want to lug around car seats and strollers and chairs around all over the store."
"True. So the bedding and the animals/toys then."
"Right." She nods, walking beside the cart as he pushes it.
First they stop and look at the bedding for the crib. They pick out the bedding and put it in the cart. Then they move onto the toys and she giggles, watching Mike pick out different things.
"She's not even born yet and you're already spoiling her."
"Of course I am." Mike grins, stopping briefly to rub on her stomach and kiss it.
"Just like I say about you...she deserves it."
She smiles softly. Then he goes back to picking out more toys for Savannah.
"I think that's enough daddy. Remember there's going to be a baby shower at some point and she's going to get lots of things."
"Alright." He chuckles.
They wander through more aisles, picking out things. After a bit, they get to the rocking chairs.
"Ooh, I like that one." She points out.
She sits in it and rocks some.
"Comfy and smooth." She says.
"So that one then?"
"You try it too. Both of us are going to be in it at some point." She says, carefully getting out of the chair.
He nods and sits down in the chair, rocking a bit himself.
"Yeah, this is nice." Mike agrees.
They decide to get that rocking glider chair and the matching ottoman. They finish shopping and have someone help them get everything to the car.
"And now back home where we can set everything up.
"Right." Mike nods, squeezing her hand as he drives back to the condo.
"I'll call DC when we get back and he can help bring the stuff up."
"Alright."
After a bit of driving, they finally get back to the condo. Aly takes out her phone and calls Alex. He answers and after she tells him the situation, he agrees to come help Mike with the big stuff.
"Have fun?" I ask her, once they all walk inside.
"Loads." She says amusedly.
"You need to sit and relax for a bit." Mike says to her.
"There's still bags in the car and you guys have a few more big things to carry up." She protests.
"We can take care of the rest, it's okay."
He kisses her firmly.
"Rest." He states, nudging her in the direction of the couch.
She sighs and comes over sitting beside me, propping up her feet after taking off her shoes. After taking what they had to the nursery, Mike and Alex head out to get the rest of the things.
"Should've seen Mike and the toys. If I didn't tell him to stop, then he would've bought out the whole toy aisle."
"I believe it." I laugh.
"Not even born yet, and he's already spoiling her."
"It doesn't surprise me though, with the way he spoils you he was bound to be like that with her." I say, giggling a bit.
"Yeah I know."
"DC will be the same way when you find out what you're having."
"Oh I know he will."
"So did he attack you yet?" She asks.
"Well not really...he was just really cuddly and affectionate."
"Awwww."
"He's very happy now."
"I bet." She smiles.
"He didn't want to let me go this morning."
"Aww."
"But I don't think he's gonna let me do a lot of things now.
"Protective hmm?"
"Maybe, but all I wanted to do is get something to eat earlier for breakfast and he told me to go sit down and he'd make something."
"He's probably just trying to be helpful and sweet."
"Like he always is."
"Right."
"It's gonna be a lot more fun now."
Aly nods with a laugh and smiles.
"You have no idea." She adds.
"Just wait." She giggles.
Then Mike and Alex come in with the rest of the stuff. Aly starts to get up so she can go into the nursery.
"Have fun with the nursery." I say after she gets up.
"Will do."
Then she follows Mike and Alex down to the nursery.
"Thanks DC." She says, going to sit in the rocking chair since they had it set up already.
"No problem. Always happy to help."
He hugs her and then goes back out to the living room by me.
"So...what first daddy?" She asks while running her hands over her belly.
"Hmm, let's set up the crib first.
"Okay." She agrees, coming over to sit on the floor.
"Just have to go get it from the back room, then we can set it up."
She nods and he leans down to kiss her before going to get the crib and the tool box. Then he comes back into the room, sitting down next to her, putting the box with the crib and the tool box down. They open the box and get started. As they start to put each part together, they of course be sure to read the directions as they go. Slowly but surely, the crib gets put together. She looks at the instructions for the next part, chewing her lip as she reads.
"We can take a break if you want."
"If you need to. You're the one doing most of the work." She says still reading.
"Well what do we need to do next first?"
She tells him the next step. He nods and does what the step says. While he does that, she reads the next one, not noticing when Mike finishes. Then he goes back over to her, and starts to be all affectionate. She giggles and squirmrs, trying to finish reading.
"Quit...I'm trying to read." She says, giggling.
"Read later."
"Mike..." She giggles harder.
"What?"
"Quit." She laughs.
"Why?"
"I'm trying to finish reading this."
"Awwww."
He doesn't stop and finally she just drops the instructions and climbs into his lap.
"Well that didn't take you long." He grins.
"Oh be quiet."
"Well it's true."
"Would you shut up and kiss me already?"
He just smirks before pressing his lips to hers. She scooches as close as she can and cups his face, kissing him back. He smiles into the kiss, and holds her as close as he can. She lets him take control of the kiss, relaxing in his arms. That goes on for a while, until she and Mike both feel Savannah kicking. Aly breaks away and buries her face in his neck, giggling.
"Looks like someone wants us to finish her crib." Mike chuckles.
"I guess so."
"We should start finishing it, or I don't think she's gonna stop."
"Okay." She giggles and slides off his lap after kissing his neck gently.
She sits back in her spot and picks up the instructions, going back to reading the next step. She tells him what to do and he does it. That lasts for a few more steps before Mike gets distracted again.
"Mike..."
"Lys..."
"...again?"
"Can't help it."
She just sighs and tilts her head as he kisses up her neck.
"Of course you can't help it."
"You never can." She murmurs.
"Can you blame me?" He mumbles.
"Not...really."
"But we really...have to get this...done."
He reluctantly pulls away and they go through the process again. They do manage to get the crib finally put together, despite the reocurring distractions. Mike gets the mattress and sets it in the crib. She gets up from the floor and grabs the bedding.
"You put together the changing table and whatever else you feel like. I'm going to put this stuff in the wash.
"Alright." He nods.
"Love you." She kisses him lightly.
"Love you too."
She then takes the bedding and stuff to the washer and puts it in. Mike in the meantime gets the changing table put together. That doesn't take long so he begins working on other stuff as she comes back in.
"Having fun?"
"Of course." He looks up and smiles.
She walks over to the rocking chair and sits in it, watching him work. She smiles softly and rubs her stomach, propping her feet up on the ottoman.
"It's looking great so far."
"Yeah." Mike agrees, looking around.
"We did a great job with getting everything."
"Might add some pictures and things on the walls at some point." She adds.
"Sounds like a good idea."
"This is a great start though." She smiles.
"I couldn't agree more." He smiles back.
She lifts her arms up and reaches out for him. He goes over to her, and wraps his arms around her in a hug.
"I love you Michael Gregory." She mumbles into his neck.
"I love you too Alyssa Rose." He murmurs, kissing her head.
"Forever." He adds.
"Forever." She repeats.
He pulls back and kneels down to kiss her stomach.
"You too Savannah Aubrie.
"She loves you too."
"I know."
"She's gonna love this room."
"It's an amazing room." He nods.
"Indeed it is."
"I think we should either go relax on the swing or relax in bed. I need to stay off my feet until we go out tonight because we'll probably be standing alot of the time and my ankles and feet might swell up."
"To the bedroom it is then." He nods.
Mike gets up and scoops her out of the chair.
"Mike! What are you doing? I'm heavy!" She gasps, clinging to him but squirming slightly.
"I got you, don't worry."
"And you aren't that heavy." He adds.
"Yes I am." She mutters as he carries her out of the nursery.
"I'm strong enough to carry you still."
"I can lift guys heavier than you, I'm fine." He says.
"I just don't want you to hurt yourself."
"I'll be alright, trust me. Okay?"
"Okay..."
She snuggles into him and kisses his neck. Then he walks into the bedroom, closing the door with his foot, and he walks over to the bed gently placing her on it. She scooches and gets somewhat comfortable until he climbs onto the bed. She moves over and cuddles.
"Feel free to nap if you want."
"Okay." She agrees.
He rests a hand on her back and the other on her stomach. Mike moves his hand up and down her back which as usual, puts her to sleep. He kisses her head, and dozes off to sleep himself. Meanwhile Alex and I are cuddling on the couch.
"Their nursery is looking good." Alex comments.
"I can't wait until we start working on ours."
"That will be great."
"You're gonna spoil Gummy Bear, I just know it."
"Of course. Baby Love deserves the best, just like you."
"And now I know you'll be even more touchy feely, with this showing now." I say, both hands resting on my stomach.
"Definitely." He smiles, putting his hands with mine.
"And even more protective, I know."
"Can you blame me?"
"No not really."
"You and the baby are the most important things to me, I don't want anything to happen to you."
"Just like you're the most important thing to me, and I don't want anything happening to you." I smile up at him.
"I know." He leans down and kisses me.
I bury my face in his neck after we pull away.
"I love you, so much." I mumble.
"I love you just as much. Always."
"Always...and forever." I repeat, and add.
"Forever." He agrees.
"So much has happened within a year."
"I know but I'm so glad it has."
"So am I."
"Thank god for Mike giving us that extra push."
"I know. I will always remember that day. Half being the kiss, the other half you falling to the apron like a dork."
I laugh as I recall the memory.
"That dorky smile and everything."
Alex chuckles.
"Your fault you fell though." I snicker.
"Totally on purpose."
"Oh of course."
"I should've won that challenge."
"Yeah I know, but don't worry...you were the real winner in my eyes."
"Good."
"But hey look where Lucky is now...he quit on WWE."
"He should. He didn't have what it takes to be here."
"Exactly."
"You were the true winner of NXT that season." I say to him.
"Everyone's saying that." I add.
"Really?"
"Yeah, I mean Kaval is gone and McGillicutty is low midcard where as you, you've been doing bigger things."
"You could quite possibly have a title match next Sunday at the pay-per-view, for one of the more important titles."
"Right."
"Which would be nice for you to win."
"Beyond nice. That would be amazing."
"We would definitely have to go out and celebrate afterwards."
"Definitely." He agrees.
"Maybe even some more celebrating when we get back to the hotel." I mumble.
Alex tenses a bit and bites back a groan at the thought.
"But of course, that's only about almost 2 weeks away." I giggle, getting up and walking out into the kitchen to get something to drink.
I hear him mumble curses under his breath. I laugh quietly as I stay out in the kitchen while I drink what I got. Alex comes in by me.
"Evil minx." He sighs.
"Love you too." I smirk.
He kisses my neck, lingering a bit.
"Now I think you're being the evil one." I mutter.
"Just returning the favor love."
"I didn't do anything to you though."
"You got me thinking those thoughts and you know it."
"Maybe I do, maybe I don't."
Alex kisses my neck again.
"I didn't think you'd actually think about it though."
"Of course I would."
"That's right, that's how your guy brain is wired. Oops." I giggle.
He chuckles.
"But we're gonna have to wait and see if you get that match, and if you do...wait and see if you win."
"Right."
"But that doesn't mean we can't have our fun now..." He adds.
"Alex." I giggle as he continues to tease me.
"This is what you get for giving me those thoughts."
"Sorry..."
"I don't think sorry is getting you out of this one."
"Alex!" I laugh.
"Quit!" I add.
"No." He laughs.
"And why not?"
"Because I don't want to."
"I blame myself now."
"You should, you started it."
"Well it's true what I said, not only celebrating after the match if you win, but celebrating back at the hotel."
Alex growls against my neck and I shiver at the feeling.
"I say it again...evil minx."
"You love it."
"Can't deny that." He says, before sneakily biting at the skin of my neck gently.
I jump slightly, yelping softly.
"No...down boy."
But of course he doesn't listen.
"...Alex..."
"...what?"
"No more..."
"Why not?"
"Save it for later when we're alone."
"They've been back there for how long. I don't think they're coming out any time soon."
"Alex...control yourself."
"Please." I add.
He sighs and stops.
"Alright. Only because you said please."
"You save all that for later...promise."
"You better keep that promise."
"Does this tell you that I will?" I ask, turning around and press my lips to his, kissing him hard.
"...yeah..." He says dazedly once I pull away.
"Good." I smile, before walking away and back out into the living room.
He follows me. He sits back down next to me on the couch and I snuggle into him, with the grin still on my face. Alex chuckles.
"Love you." He kisses my head.
"Love you too."
Hours pass and we all eat dinner before Aly and Mike get ready for the concert. She can tell Mike is getting antsy as we finish dinner.
"Someone's antsy."
"I wanna knowwwww." Mike whines.
"You'll find out soon..."
He sighs in frustration and she just laughs.
"Relax would you?"
"I'll try." He mumbles.
After having some dessert, Aly decides that it's time to get ready.
"Okay antsy, let's go get ready."
Mike gets up quickly and eagerly follows her.
"Yesss." He cheers.
She laughs as they get into the bedroom.
"Get ready and when I'm done, I'll tell you where we're going."
He nods excitedly and goes into the closet, looking for something to wear. She picks out what she's wearing and starts to get dressed. Mike ends up getting changed before her and walks out of the closet. She finishes and goes into the bathroom to fix her hair and makeup quickly. He sits and waits on the bed as she finishes up. She walks out and stands by his legs.
"First off, I did this because you've been so sweet and amazing lately and also as an early birthday gift." She explain.
"Okay..."
"We're going to see Def Leppard."
His jaw literally drops.
"No way!"
"Way." She smiles.
"Chris helped me out." She adds.
"And he'll be at the concert with us. I was going to have Dolce and DC too but figured they would like some alone time." She finishes.
"Right." He nods.
She looks at him with a smile, just waiting to see if he's going to attack her. At that moment, he jumps up from the bed and engulfs her in a hug. She laughs and squeezes him back.
"You're amazing."
"Thank you." She giggles.
"Now we're picking Chris up, so we can't be late."
"Okay but first things first..." He trails off and she looks at him curiously.
He pulls away from the hug, in favor of taking her face in his hands and he presses his lips against hers. She smiles into the kiss and returns it eagerly. When he pulls away, he leans his forehead against hers with the big smile still on his face.
"Like your surprise?" She giggles.
"I don't like it, I love it."
"I thought you would."
"I love you so much for this."
"You're welcome. You deserve it for being so amazing dealing with me and my moodswings and all that."
"Well it's my job to be there for you through everything."
"Still. It's my way of thanking you. Plus it's an early birthday thing too."
"Now if we don't get going now, we'll be late." She adds.
He gives her another thorough kiss before they get their shoes on. then they get what they need and leave the bedroom.
"You two have fun." I say, once they pass Alex and I in the kitchen as we're washing the dishes.
"We will. You have fun too. Thanks for doing the dishes."
"We will too, and it was no problem."
"Bye guys."
"Bye."
Then they head out and down to the car. They get in the car and drive off, Mike's one hand holding hers as he drives. After a while of driving, Mike pulls up to Chris' place and beeps the horn. Shortly after, he comes out and gets in the back.
"Hi Chris." She turns and greets him, smiling.
"Hey, it's about time we all hang out."
"I know. It's been forever."
"You've gotten bigger since the last time I saw you." He grins.
"No kidding." She laughs.
"How is she doing?"
"She's doing go-" She starts to say and then looks at her stomach with amusement.
"The hiccups again? Goodness."
"I told you she would get the hiccups at some point today." She says to Mike.
"You were right." He chuckles.
"I always tend to be."
"Very true."
"Must be a weird feeling." Chris says.
"It is but it's kind of funny."
"Definitely a different feeling than the kicking." She adds.
"I bet."
"Well, we're here." Mike says as he finds a parking spot.
"Yayyyy."
"Time to party." Chris adds.
"Oh yeah." Mike agrees.
"Oh boy." She shakes her head amusedly.
She takes what she needs out of her purse before stashing the purse out of sight. They all get out and head towards the doors after locking the car. Once they get to the doors, they show their tickets before heading inside. They stop by the souvenir stand and get what they want from there. Then she gets something to drink and they go to their seats. She sits down in her seat, sipping at her drink with one hand on her stomach.
"The hiccups stop?" Mike asks.
"No." She laughs.
"I wouldn't doubt she'd start moving around once the concert starts too." She adds.
"Probably." He chuckles.
"But hey, then she'd be rocking out." Chris adds, laughing.
"She already has. She was moving around when we went to the club last time."
"She's a little rocker." He chuckles.
"Yup." Mike grins.
"You want to feel the hiccups?" She asks Chris.
"Sure." He nods.
She puts his hand on her stomach, over the spot where she feels the hiccups the most.
"Awww." He smiles.
"I know."
"I can't wait to see her after she's born."
"Uh either. 4 more months."
"Time is just flying by."
"I know. Seems like yesterday when we found out." She agrees, reaching out to hold Mike's hand.
"And now soon you'll be holding her in your arms."
"Yeah...really looking forward to it." She smiles.
"Of course."
"She's going to be so sute. And she'll have everybody wrapped around her finger." Chris chuckles.
"Yeah. I can only imagine what kind of trouble she's going to get into when she gets to crawling and what not." She giggles.
"Gonna have to keep a close eye on her when she starts crawling."
"Oh yeah. She'll be into everything." Mike laughs.
"Be like I was when I was a kid. That's how I got the nickname Trouble." She laughs too.
"Gonna have to baby proof our houses when that happens."
"Yup."
"Oh by the way, we started working ont he nursery today." She says to Chris.
"Oh really?"
"Yeah. They finished painting while we were away so we started putting up the crib and the changing table and stuff."
"One less nursery to worry about getting done."
"Right. My mom is taking care of the one in Chicago and Mike's mom is doing the Ohio house. So that left the one here for us until we get through closing and everything on the house in Vegas." She explains.
"Ah."
"You're getting a house in Vega?" Chris asks.
"Yeah. We found a great house that has the space we need and room to grow. It has an indoor pool and an outdoor one, and it has a home theater...its perfect." Mike says, kissing Aly's head as she leans into him.
"Well I can't wait to see it once you get it."
Soon the concert starts and the lights dim for it as the band comes onto the stage. They enjoy the opening band and before they know it, it's time for Def Leppard to come onstage. And of course Mike and Christ are the ones to start going crazy. She watches them, laughing. They were rocking out to each song, and Mike took out his phone to take a picture to post it on Twitter. First he takes one just by himself.
"Goof." She laughs at his funny face.
Then he takes one with her and him. She cuddles into his side, grinning. Once the picture was taken he posted both on Twitter with captions. She kisses him afterwards and smiles.
"Love you."
"Love you too."
Then they go back to enjoying the music. She takes some pictures and videos of Chris and Mike acting like goofballs. Every slow song they do, Mike pulls her to him and sways them back and forth. After a few more songs, they decide to take a break and they all gets something to drink and everything. She takes a bathroom break and then when she comes out, Mike has nachos waiting for her.
"Ooooh. You read my mind." She smiles.
He nods and grins, kissing her. She pulls away and steals the nachos, eating some as they walk back to their seats. In the meantime back at the condo, Alex and I have finished the dishes and we've changed for bed for the night. We're sitting out in the living room, snuggling as we watch a movie. Of course Alex's hands are on my stomach, running over the small bump. Every now and then I feel him press a kiss against my head.
"I love you too." I say, before he could say anything.
He chuckles.
"What about the promise you made earlier?" He asks.
"Eager huh?" I giggles.
"You thought I forgot, didn't you?"
"Never." I tease.
"Uh huh...sure."
"I was just waiting for you to bring it up."
"Well I just did..."
"True..."
"...well, let's go in the bedroom then."
"...alright."
"But first, to give you more motivation..." I trail off, moving my hand up to the back of his neck and dragging my nails across it, before getting up quickly and dashing to the bedroom.
"Tease!" He yells, turning off the tv and stuff before running after me.
I just laugh as I dash into the bedroom. He isn't far behind me so I try to hide. I hide in the usual spot, behind the door and when I hear him walk into the room, I try not to laugh.
"Carebear?" He calls, looking around.
I cover my mouth and stifle a giggle. He walks in further, still looking. I sneak out behind the door and sneak up behind him. I wait until he stops to carefully and sneakily press my fingers into his indents. He jumps and hisses out a groan. I retract my hands quickly and stand there innocently.
"Youuuu..."
"Meeee." I giggle.
"You know what this means don't you?"
"I'm in trouble?"
"Yes you are."
"I couldn't help myself, I'm sorry."
"Sure..."
"You're still in trouble." He adds, starting to walk forwards.
I step backwards until I back into the bed, falling onto it.
"I got you now." He smirks.
I bite my lip and scooch farther onto the bed as Alex climbs on. At first I try to hide under the blankets, but it's no use since he moved the blankets and immediately pulled me closer to him. From there he instantly attached his lips to my neck. I let out a noise, tilting my head as I clutch his shoulders. He makes his way up to my ear, totally avoiding the sensitive spot, starting from behind my ear and going to my earlobe. He nips at it and I make a noise, arching a bit. Then he moves down my jawline, lingering near my lips. It seems like he's going to press his lips to mine, but he moves at the last seconds to the other side of my neck, and I whine.
"Patience." He chuckles.
"You should know my patience is low when you do this to me..."
"I know."
"I think you can last a bit longer..."
"Nooo." I whine.
"I'm not done yet, you're gonna have to wait."
I groan and he continues. He does the same thing on that side with my ear and everything. And since I had a sensitive spot on that side of my neck, he went after that. I tense up, moaning into his shoulder. He smirks against my neck. He continues on the spot until he knows that a mark will be forming. Then he finally moves over to my lips once I move my head and presses his lips to mine. I kiss back eagerly, holding him to me. His hands stay resting on my back, and I move one of mine back up to his neck and drag my nails across like I did earlier. He growls a bit and I do it more until I move my hand up to his hair and I run my fingers through it, before I grip it lightly. Alex starts running his fingers up my spine. I shiver before pressing myself closer, and I start to make the kiss more heated. Alex responds just as much, his hands roaming. After that goes on for a bit I pull away, but he seems to follow me, not wanting to stop.
"Someone's really eager." I giggle.
"Your fault." He mumbles.
"You had your fun already."
He whines a bit.
"I'd say we could go farther than we did, but I wanna save that for next weekend."
He raises an eyebrow.
"Remember...what I said about after the pay per view next Sunday? That's what I'm talking about."
"Ohh. Right."
"But say I do have the match, what happens if I don't win?"
"Hmmm..."
"...I guess you'll find out that night."
He grumbles.
"...okay."
"You'll live, don't worry. No grumbling."
He sighs and nuzzles my cheek.
"I think we can go to sleep now though."
Alex kisses me, then moves into his spot and I cuddle up to him.
"Night love."
"Night."
Back at the concert, Def Leppard was finishing their last song of the concert. They finish and Aly sits down in her seat.
"Should we wait out the crowd a bit or try to leave now?"
"I'd rather not risk it and have you get hurt, so we should wait out the crowd for a bit."
"Okay." She agrees, smiling softly at his protectiveness.
"Thank you for tonight." He smiles, wrapping an arm around her shoulders and kissing her head.
"You're welcome. You deserved it."
"Chris helped me out though with the tickets and everything." She adds.
"Thanks." Mike tells him.
"Oh it was no problem."
"Thanks for bringing me along." He adds.
"You're more than welcome. Its been so long since we hung out that this was way overdue."
"It was definitely a fun night."
"For sure."
"I got video of you two being dorks." She snickers.
"And pictures." She laughs.
"You two at concerts...funniest thing ever."
"Glad to be of amusement." Chris laughs.
"You always are. Need I remind you the night at BOA? While we were waiting for our cars?"
He and Mike laugh.
"Yeah, when you said you weren't going to have kids right away and boom, pregnant weeks later." Chris snickers.
"I blame him." She points at Mike.
"He just couldn't wait."
Mike looks sheepish and she giggles.
"But it's okay, I couldn't be any happier right now."
She smiles and steals a kiss from Mike. As soon as a majority of the crowd has left, they decide to get up and start heading out. They make it out safely and back to the car, where they get in and head off to Chris' place to drop him off before going back to the condo. They stop at Chris' and get out to say their goodbyes.
"Don't be strangers now." He chuckles as he hugs her.
"Of course not. Same to you." She giggles, hugging back.
"Also try to come back to the WWE soon. There's some people you need to teach a lesson to." She adds.
"We'll see." Chris laughs.
Then she pulls away from the hug so that he and Mike can do their man hug thing and everything.
"Keep me posted on the little one." He says.
"We will."
Then he says bye to both of Aly and Mike, before going inside. She and Mike get back into the car and head home. She stifles a yawn as he drives home. Her eyes get heavy and she lays her head against Mike's arm. She ends up falling asleep when they're halfway home. Once they get there, Mike parks and carefully moves her so that he can unbuckle and get out. He does so and goes around to her side of the car and opens the door, unbuckling her seatbelt and reaching down and picks her up. She unconsciously snuggles into him, burying her face in his neck. He closes the door with his foot and hits the lock button on the remote to the car and also sets the alarm. He walks inside and goes up, opening the door and walking inside. He closes the door with his foot and turns around, reaching down to lock the door. Then he heads to the bedroom where he sets her down on the bed, just so that she's sitting up. She grumbles in her sleep, trying to get closer to him.
"Lyssa we're home...you need to change for bed."
She groans as she stirs a bit.
"...dun wanna..."
"I can help you to make it easier if you want."
She nods and he helps her get out of her clothes. She clumsily crawls up the bed and gets under the covers, not caring about pajamas due to exhaustion.
"No pajamas?" He asks.
She shakes her head, making herself comfortable.
"...'m tired and hot."
"Alright, I'll just change real quick and I'll be in bed soon."
She makes a small noise, already falling back asleep. He gets changed quickly like he said, and climbs into bed and under the covers, draping an arm across her so his hands rests on her stomach. She scooches into him and sighs in content.
"Night Lyssa." He says quietly, pressing a kiss to her head.
She makes a tiny noise in reply, too out of it to do anything more. She falls asleep rather quickly and Mike follows shortly after.
