I found out my chemistry midterm was postponed so I might be able to finish the fic this week. And here's a small part for you guys! - - - - James' POV My truck rolled to a stop outside the house. The lights were out, so I knew Ashlynn was extremely upset with me. Any other time I would storm off like I had earlier that night, she would wait up for me and we would stay up all night talking or making love, whatever came first. But I knew I was getting none of that tonight. A sigh spilled from my lips and I cradled my head in my hands, staring at the floor of the pickup. How the fuck was I going to apologize to her? She was probably contemplating kicking me out and I honestly wouldn't put it past her. I didn't blame her if she thought so, either. I was a terrible fiance. Ever since I put that ring on her finger, I had cheated on her twice. She found out both times and left for a few days each time, only to return to act like nothing had happened. That would bring my grand total of fuck ups to a whole fucking lot. I couldn't count them on all my fingers and toes. But Ashlynn was perfect. She only slipped up once. One fuck up and I freaked out at her. I yelled at her and stormed off; whenever I fucked up, she worked with me or ignored me for a little while, but it was rare that she yelled at me or left. God, I was so fucking stupid. I climbed out of the truck and padded sheepishly into the house. The door creaked loudly as I opened it and it only reminded me how incompetent I was: I'd been promising Ashlynn I would fix the door and lots of other things in the house. I'd been promising for two fucking years. I really was stupid. Shaking my head, I closed and locked the door before kicking my shoes off. I skulked through the house and up the stairs, skipping the stairs that I knew creaked under pressure. I was being extra careful to be quiet as not to wake Adrian. That would just give Ashlynn another reason to be mad at me. Silently, I slipped into the bedroom I shared with Ashlynn. It was dark, but once my eyes adjusted to the darkness I saw that she was on my side of the bed, curled up into as tight a ball as her pregnant belly would allow. The sight made me want to start crying again. I felt terrible for leaving her here like I had. I gulped back tears and approached the bed, kneeling on the floor next to it when I got there. I pushed Ashlynn's hair away from her face and smoothed it down. She shifted and the blanket covering her fell off of the bed, but she didn't wake. Her stomach was exposed and I placed my hand, covered in dirt and dried blood, on it. The foulness of my hand against the creamy white skin of her stomach made me sick, like I didn't belong there, touching her. My hand began to shake and I pulled it away from her before covering her back up with the blanket. "I'm sorry, Ashlynn," I said hoarsely, still shaking. Her eyes cracked open then and I backpedaled, gasping. I hadn't meant to wake her up. "Where did you go?" She blinked up at me with tired and watery eyes. "It's been hours." I returned to the side of the bed. "It doesn't matter. I'm just so fucking sorry, Ashlynn." "You didn't do anything. I fucked up, remember?" I shook my head and sighed. "No, Ash, I fucked up. I fucked up so many times and you stayed with me." I gasped suddenly, letting out a sob along with the tears I was holding back. "I'm going to make it up to you, though. I don't deserve you and I know it, but that won't stop me from making you happy again." Ashlynn placed her hand over mine, which was resting on the lip of the bed. "James, please don't -" "No, Ashlynn. Just...just let me talk, okay?" I gulped and didn't bother wiping away the stream of tears running down my face. When Ashlynn nodded, I continued, "I love you and I love Adrian and I'm going to love that baby no matter what. I don't want to lose you. I don't know what I would do without you." Ashlynn squeezed my hand and lifted her other hand to my cheek. I nuzzled my cheek into her palm and my body warmed at her touch. "You're not going to lose us, James. I'm not leaving." "Promise me," I begged, locking eyes with her. "I promise, okay?" She leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to my lips. It was the first time we'd kissed in weeks and I relished in that fact, kissing her deeply and slowly. When we parted, Ashlynn rested her hands on either of my cheeks. "I swear." I opened my eyes and met her gaze: her brown eyes were sparkling hopefully. |

Only a few more parts left. And I apologize for any mistakes. I had no time to proofread. - - - - Ashlynn's POV "Maybe we should have the first few dates of the tour postponed," I heard James ponder to Lars as they walked a few steps ahead of Laura and I. I turned to Laura and raised my eyebrows. We both picked up the pace so we could eavesdrop on their conversation. "We already talked about this, man. I get that you're having another kid and I'm happy for you - really, I am - but we can't change the dates. We've had this planned for months." Lars shook his head as we approached his house. We were getting back from dinner at a bar a few blocks away and now we were going to hang at Lars' too big of a house. What did he need six bedrooms for? The house James and I shared only had four room, all of which were used. Laura and Lars didn't even live together. I shook my head at the thought and concentrated on the conversation in front of me. "But...but it's my kid, dude. I want to see her when she's born, not three months after the fact." Lars unlocked his door and pushed it open. "Don't exaggerate." He shot James a cold look and James grinned widely. The blonde looked back and noticed that Laura and I were listening and he grinned as we all walked into the house. James and I had already discussed what would happen if he was on tour when the baby was born, but he was still worried about it. "If I miss the birth of my first daughter, I'm blaming you, Lars. In twenty years she'll ask me what it was like when she born and I'll tell her to ask her good ole uncle Lars because it's your fault that I missed her being born. She'll resent you for years, dude." James flashed me another grin and flopped onto Lars' couch. Lars rolled his eyes and made his way into the kitchen, only to return with three beers. He placed them on the coffee table before turning to me. "You want anything?" When I shook my head, Lars flopped down next to James. Laura sat down next to him and I snagged the arm chair off to the side. I pulled it close to the coffee table, kicked off my shoes, and then propped my swollen feet up on it, sighing with relief as I sunk into the chair. "Hey, get your nasty feet off of my table," Lars chastised before putting his own bare feet up on the table. James lifted his beer to his lips and sipped at it before laughing. "Your feet are just as gross as hers, Lars. You shower weekly." Lars shrugged. "At least I shower." Everyone but Lars broke into fits of uncontrollable laughter. - - - - We hung at Lars' for a few hours before James announced that he was 'two beers away from falling over.' To my horror, he even drove us home. He didn't hit any poles or cats or pedestrians, though, so it worked out well. We were in bed now and James had his head on my bare stomach. He did this every night: speaking to the baby. It lasted for twenty minutes or so before he ran out of things to say. I never knew what he said, though, because he whispered and he made me promise not to listen. He was weird about that. "You finished yet? I'm tired," I whined, poking James in the back of the head. James rested his chin on my stomach so he could look up at me. "I'm taking my time. I leave tomorrow." I laughed softly and combed my fingers through his hair. "I know, but it'll be fine. Even if she's born before you get back, I'm not going to hold it against you. You have a job to do." "I know, but I didn't get to see Adrian born because of the fucking C-section." He rolled over onto his back and groaned. "I just want to be here," he muttered at the ceiling, sighing. "I said don't worry about it. It'll be fine." I reached over and ran my hand through his hair again. He closed his eyes and smiled. "Alright, babe." He reached for my hand and brought it to his face, placing a kiss on my palm before he sat up again. "How are you feeling, though? You're due next week, right?" "I feel awesome. And that's what the doctor says, but I'm not ready yet. I'll give it another two weeks." James laughed. "You don't decide when the baby is born. The baby decides." "Nope, I decide. I didn't have much of a choice with Adrian since I was shot and all." I waved my hand to the hole-shaped scare on my leg and James winced. "But now I'm calm and I'll choose." "Whatever you want, baby," he leaned forward and kissed me, then reached over and turned off my lamp. The room was engulfed in the darkness and I listened as James shifted about. Then he pulled me to his chest and I closed my eyes. - - - - The next afternoon, I was pattering around the house with Adrian at my hip while James at on the couch, watching me. "Ashlynn, what are you doing?" "Making sure you have everything. Last year you forgot so much." He leaned forward and placed his elbows on his knees. "Yeah, I remember. I left all my good pants here. And my ESP." "Shipping a guitar is harder than you think," I skidded throughout the kitchen and back into the living room. I plopped Adrian onto the couch and he crawled into James' lap. James grabbed my hand and pulled me down next to him. "I have everything. I swear. Calm down." He leaned over and kissed me softly, only pulling away when Adrian giggled loudly. "What's so funny, huh?" James tickled Adrian and the toddler shrieked with laughter. Adrian tried to push James' hands away, but he kept tickling him. I sat back and watched them, smiling. My boys. When James finally let Adrian go, Adrian crawled into my lap, throwing side-eyed glances at James. "Alright," I said, blinking at the clock above the television. "It's time to go." "Go where?" Adrian questioned, clutching my neck as I rose from the couch. "To drop daddy off with Lars, Kirk, and Jason, sweetheart. They're going on a trip, remember?" Adrian's eye lit up at the mention of Kirk's name. Kirk was his favorite 'uncle.' "Okay," he said, nodding in a grownup manner that made me smile. We moved outside and James followed, grabbing the last of his things to load into his truck. "You driving?" I asked after buckling Adrian into his car seat. James climbed into the driver's seat and I blinked. "I assume so." James laughed as I ambled into the car and shut the door. We drove in silence, letting the radio fill the truck. James rested his hand on my knee and kept his eyes on the rode. After a few minutes, Adrian fell asleep and about twenty minutes after that, we pulled into the parking lot where two humungous tour buses awaited us. The band and other personnel were hanging around and all of their shit was loaded into the appropriate buses. "Hey, asshole!" Kirk yelled at the truck, waving. "You're late!" James laughed and waved out of the window. He parked the car and we climbed out. I carried Adrian and his head was lolling on my shoulder as I walked over to Kirk, Jason, and Lars. "Shit, you're really pregnant." Jason laughed and leaned forward to poke my stomach. I slapped his hand away. "Thank you, Sherlock. Your observational skills are wonderful." Jason laughed. "Thanks." There was a hand on my shoulder and I turned my head to the side. "What'd I miss?" James asked, squeezing my shoulder. The guys all exchanged glances and walked away, knowing that the annoying couple-y goodbye was coming. Oh, they had such good sense. "I'll call you when we get there, alright?" James came around my front and put his arms around me. He hugged me as tightly as my stomach and Adrian would allow. "And if anything happens, you call me. I want to be here when that baby's born. No matter what." "James, really," I muttered, pulling back. "You know that's close to impossible." "I can still try, baby." He leaned forward and kissed me softly. Smiling when he pulled away, he placed another kiss on my forehead. He slipped Adrian from my arms and the child woke up, yawning loudly as he did. "Alright, buddy. I've gotta go and I wanted to say goodbye." James brushed Adrian's hair from his face and Adrian smiled. "Bye-bye, daddy," he said sleepily with another yawn. He hugged his arms around James' neck and James kissed the top of his head. Adrian had fallen back asleep and, noticing this, James snorted with laughter. He handed Adrian back to me, laughing softly. "I love you, Ashlynn." "I love you, too," I replied, smiling. James kissed me again, then kissed Adrian's head for good measure. "And don't worry about us. We'll be fine." "I know, baby, I just..." "Nope. Shut up." I pushed him toward the bus. "We'll be fine. I promise." James turned and eyed me, walking backwards to the bus. "You'd better be." "I promise!" I called at his back as he climbed into the bus. |
