Yesterday was the day after the premiere and we just sat around watching movies together. After doing that, i realized that was going to be my life for the next four months. When i go back home i am on maternity leave, from the bakery. About a month and a half ago i left the training job, but will come back to it after my leave.

I started stirring awake at about 9:30 in the morning. I tried to move but, just like any morning, i was trapped under Chris's arm that was around my waist. I opened my eyes to look at the clock on my bedside table and saw what time it was. "Shit." I said to myself and tried to get out from Chris. Once i started he tightened his grip and buried his face into my shoulder. I tried again but he tightened a little bit more and groaned onto my shoulder.

"Chris, come on. I need to get ready." I told him and slapped his arm. "Why?" He groaned in his deep morning voice. God, it was deep and husky, it was fucking sexy that's what it was. "I told you yesterday. Me, Lizzie, and Scar are doing a girls day. Today is the only day they both have off from doing publicity things for the movie. And we haven't done a girls day together, yet. So, let me go." I begged. He just kissed my shoulder in response. I turned around in his arms and, he loosened his arm around me a little.

His eyes were still closed but he knew i was looking at him, so he smiled. "Chris, please. I was supposed to wake up half an hour ago, but i forgot to set my alarm." I begged and told. He didn't say anything but pucker his lips at me. "Let. Me. Go." I said between pecking his lips. He just pushed my back so i moved closer to him and his lips landed on mine. I kissed back and hummed into the kiss. I pulled away and he let me go. "Thank you. And can you please text Scar and let her know that i will be a little late." I asked while getting off the bed. "Fine." He said and rolled over. 

I got ready and by the time i was done it was around 10:10. I wasn't too late. I went downstairs and Scar and Lizzie were sitting in the kitchen. "Sorry. I forgot to set my alarm." I told them grabbing my shoes. "It's fine. We'll only be a few minutes late for the appointment." Scar replied. "What appointment?" Chris asked taking a sip of coffee. "We are getting our nails done, then we are shopping." Lizzie answered him. "Sounds like great fun." He said sarcastically and then walked over to me. "Have fun. I love you. Goodbye." He told me and then kissed the top of my head. "Love you." I replied and he went up stairs. "Ready?" I asked the girls. 

We got to the nail salon at 11:03, which was great because we had the appointment at 11. We got sat down in the chairs and i immediately turned on the back massage mode. 

"So, how's Rose?" I asked Scarlett. "Well, she's two so she's doing fantastic. But, she's doing great." Scar answered with a smile. "Ally, how's little Guppie?" Lizzie wondered to me. "Good. Kicking usually starts when i get hungry, which is many times a day. Doc, has said everything looks good from her end. Haven't had morning sickness at all which i absolutely love." "Lucky. I had many mornings of morning sickness." Scar said. 

"How much have you and Chris talked?" Lizzie asked. "What do you mean?" I questioned. "You know." She shrugged and continued, "Where is the baby going to stay? Will you and Chris move in together? Marriage?" She wondered. I just looked down because we haven't talked about that stuff since we were kids. And even then, if i when off of what i said from back then i would be married and had at least one kid by this point in my life. I mean mom and dad were married and had me and Luke when they were my age. 

"Sorry. I didn't mean to pry with that stuff." Lizzie said and shook her head. "No. No. You weren't prying at all, Liz. No, we haven't yet. I know that we will have to at some point. I just never thought that we would be here, ya'know?" I said and looked at her. She nodded and smiled and i smiled back grabbing her hand. "You didn't pry. We just haven't gotten to it. We haven't talked with each other about that stuff since we were kids." I told her. 

We didn't bring it up again. But once we were done i of course got hungry so we went for lunch and then went shopping. I didn't get much stuff because i knew if i bought a ton, it would be a while before i would get to wear it again. 

I walked in the door with my bags and called out for Chris. He walked over and grabbed the bags for me. He set them down on the table and came back over to me. He wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me close. He leaned down and kissed me sweetly. I hummed in the kiss because i didn't know where this was coming from. Sure, Chris had kissed me before from when i would come back but not like this. He pulled away and smiled. 

"What was that for?" I asked smiling. "What? I can't kiss my girlfriend when she comes back from being gone all day. When i come back from doing stupid interviews most of my day." He questioned. "I never said that." I told him and rubbed his cheek a little. "I just saw something today, that made me have a little realization." "And what would that something be?" I wondered. "Well, i was walking on the street and saw a family. There was this little girl and baby boy on the swings at a park i pasted. The girl was pushing the little boy on one of the baby swings. Is it bad that i imagined our life being like that in hopefully a few years?" He told me looking in my eyes. "Not at all, baby." i said smiling. 

It was true. I do wish me and Chris will have at least one more kid. I hope we stay together 'till the day we go. I have never really loved any one more. I mean years, years i have loved Chris.
