A month had passed. Since Brie and Daniel had signed a pre-nup there divorce was already final. Brie had been staying at her mom's condo in LA until she could find a place. She was starting to show. Over the last month she'd tried calling Nikki several times but she never answered the phone. There was a knock at the door. Brie got up and answered it. She was surprised to see John standing there. He had plastic bags full of stuff.
"Hi." She said.
"Hi."
"Come in." He went in.
"What's all that?"
"Stuff for the babies." He said sitting it down beside the couch. "Speaking of which." He knelt down by her stomach. "Hi." "Daddy's here." "Did you miss me?" "I missed you." He kissed her stomach and stood back up. They sat on the couch. "How have you been?"
"I'm doing better."
"Good."
"I just wish Nikki would talk to me."
"I know." "She just needs time." "This is a lot to process for her."
"I know."
"We need to get you out of this place." "There's no rush but before the babies come."
"Yeah." "I have three places lined up to look at this week."
"Good." "If you need any help financially let me know."
"You don't have to do that."
"Yes I do." "I have to take care of my family."
"I promise if I run into any problems you'll be the first to know."
"Good." "Brie I think it's time we started doing things right."
"What do you mean?"
"If you're ready, I'd like to take you on a date, tonight."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Ok."
"Ok." "Let's go out to dinner."
"Alright."
"I'll pick you up around seven."
"Ok."
"Wear a nice dress." "The place I'm taking you is really fancy."
"Ok."
John came back at seven o'clock sharp. He knocked on the door. Brie answered it.
"Wow." John said. "You look amazing."
"Thank you." "You look great to."
"Ready?"
"Yeah."
Two hours later they came back.
"Wanna come in?" Brie asked.
"Sure."
They went inside.
"I had fun tonight." Brie said.
"Good me to." "Do I get another date?"
"Well I suppose so." She said smiling.
"What about a goodnight kiss?"
"Alright." They kissed. It was slow and passionate. "Wanna go upstairs? She asked in-between kisses.
"Yes."
They went upstairs to the bedroom. They were kissing and backing up to the bed. She took off his sport-jacket. He unzipped her dress. She broke the kiss and slid it down. She got on the bed. He got on top of her. They kissed. She started unbuttoning his shirt. He broke the kiss.
"Is this alright?" He asked. "I mean with the babies and everything."
"Don't worry." "The doctor says it's fine." They kissed.
Afterwards he was holding her.
"Brie I've been thinking about your living situation." John said. "I think the three of you should move in with me."
"With as big as your place is it's not made for kids."
"Then we'll by another place, together."
"Together?"
"Yeah." "I know it won't be easy but I love you and I want to be with you." "Will you be my girlfriend?"
"Yes." They kissed. "I love you too." "Spend the night."
"I was planning on it." "Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
