Chapter Forty-eight: Perfect
Chase's P.O.V.
Bree and Leo left after visiting us to school a while ago. Mr. Davenport and Tasha followed after them to give us some privacy. Audrey is sleeping soundly in her bassinet stretching her little leg. Adam grabs my hands and helps me up. I bite my lip almost cutting through the plush skin.
"I know it hurts Chasey," Adam soothes.
I take a deep breath and nod.
"Are you okay?" He asks as we walk to Audrey.
"Just really sore," I reply.
"Do you want to take a bath?"
"Yes, that would be wonderful," I smile gratefully.
Adam goes back to the bed and starts packing up my clothes. I pick our baby girl up and cradle her in my arms. Gently I lower her in the bed I occupied. I start to change her soiled diaper and replace it with a clean one. Her hazel doe eyes stare at me as she yawns, her mouth forming a perfect "o".
I change her into a purple onesie, thankful that someone thought my baby could possible be a girl. Then I put white mittens over her tiny fists. I can't help but frown a bit.
"What's wrong?" Adam asks noticing my change in mood.
"I'm thankful for everything everyone's done but we don't have any cute dresses and I don't have the first thing about girls " I answer.
"We'll be fine...we'll make it," he promises.
"Okay...let's go," I sigh carrying her again.
Adam grabs the bag of clothes and wraps his free arm around my waist. As we go up Audrey tries to look at her surroundings. We step out of the elevator and see Tasha in the kitchen.
"Oh sweethearts," she coos.
I can't help but smile as she fawns over us.
"Are you hungry?" She asks.
"Starving," I nod.
"I'm making lunch," she informs.
"Can you watch Audrey while we take a bath and get ready?" Adam asks.
"Of course!" She beams.
"Thanks," I hand her over.
The last thing I see is Tasha devouring Audrey with kisses. Adam and I make it to our room. He puts the bag down on the bed and then starts undressing. I undress slowly and carefully. I feel a bit self conscious about my body. Adam just smiles sweetly and lovingly.
I take his hand and we go to the bathroom. Adam starts running lukewarm water for our bath. I step in and let my sore muscles relax. Adam gets in from behind and pulls me closer.
"I love you," he kisses my shoulder.
"I love you too...thank you Adam," I smile sighing.
"For what?" He questions curiously.
"Giving me the best thing in my life," I mumble.
"No, thank you for this because this is perfect."
I nod in agreement. My eyes close as he starts washing both of our bodies. His touch is gentle and soft. There's no real rush.
Adam's P.O.V.
I wash Chase's body tenderly. I place soft kisses here and there. I can't get enough of him. I absolutely love him and I'm so happy for our baby girl. I rise from the tub letting the water drip down my body.
"Adam?" He asks.
His beautiful eyes open to watch me. I kneel in front of him and kiss his cheek.
"Come on," I smile.
I pull him up and wrap him in a soft towel. I capture his lips with mine kissing passionately. When we part it's for much needed air.
"I love you," I whisper over and over again.
I hold him tight not wanting to let go. He hugs me just as tight.
"I love you Adam...I thought this would never happen but I was wrong...I'm glad that for the first time in my life I was wrong," he smiles.
We change after that and I head down to get the food.
"How's Audrey?" I ask smiling.
"Perfect little angel," Tasha smiles back.
I pick her up and start to coo. She looks at me and wiggles in my arms.
"Hey baby girl," I whisper.
"How's Chase?" Mr. D asks coming down the stairs.
"Still tired and sore but we moved back to our room," I answer.
"May I?" He asks looking at Audrey.
I hand her over to him.
"You should go back to Chase. I'll watch over her and put her in the nursery," he offers.
"Thanks," I reply grateful.
I grab the tray of food and go back to my most amazing boyfriend ever. The door that leads to our room swings open. Chase is in bed with a too big t-shirt and boxer shorts. Smiling I bring the tray of food to him. He smiles back as he takes a bite.
"Thanks," he mumbles chewing.
"Welcome," I reply grabbing my own plate.
We eat in silence for a while.
"Why did you choose Audrey?" He asks curiously.
"Because it means strength just as Sophia means wisdom," I say.
"How did you..." he trails off.
"She was created by us. And considering we're her parents it just seems fitting."
"Oh...it's beautiful... I didn't think you would have thought about it," he confides honestly.
"She's a piece of us...it's only fair," I chuckle.
Once he finishes and puts his plate on the night stand he cuddles by my side. I wrap my arms around him. We spend the rest of the day relaxing.
By the time it's night Mr. D has put Audrey to bed after her meal. Chase is sleeping in my arms and I'm watching over him. I'm thankful for everything. This is just perfection.
