Shock My Love! ( An Ace Frehley/Tommy Thayer Love Story)

Chapter 9-Sweet Dreams or a Beautiful Nightmare? (Tommy Thayer POV)

A/N: I am on a roll tonight!! Here we are, the dream chapter!

I find myself on a beach, it's nighttime and the stars are all out. Space is very much apart of the night as are the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and space how very appropriate considering that I am holding hands with the Space Man himself: Ace Frehley. We are just so content in one another's presence, but still Ace is a little nervous I can tell. He'd told me he hasn't been on a date in years.

"Ace? You, ok? You still seem nervous...talk to me sparky.", I look at him concerned and find myself getting lost in his warm brown eyes.

"Sparky? I like it Tommy, fitting especially with my electric personality!", He chuckles as he returns my gaze. "Sorry I'm just still a little nervous...I'm not really a romantic guy, but you...for you I want to be everything you want me to be, I Wanna try for you. I don't won't to screw this up, like... Oh Tommy, I can't say I'm sorry enough for how I treated you, and made you feel. I just can't forgive myself."

I reach out with one of my free hands and tuck a strand of hair behind his ear before I caress his face..., "Ace, listen to me. You have to forgive yourself; I do, I forgive you....and you are everything to me, the fact that you want to try and took me out for Pizza and a night walk on the beach...anything we do together is romantic, I love you sparky."

Ace leans into my touch, nuzzling my hand... "I love you too. My little lightning bug." And his smile is enough to illuminate the night.... "Words can't describe just how much I love you."

And the scene fades and another takes shape....

I'm standing on a tarmac with Kiss' private jet just above me. The stairs are down and all, but I only have eyes for Ace who seems so sad. And wait...I seem to be pregnant? Ace has his hands on my baby bump, and it seems the baby is restless....

"Tommy I just hate this, having to leave you for a few months! I should be here...I hate the doctor said you can't travel no more, that it wouldn't be safe.... But what kills me is once again, you're having to quit because of me, I feel....", he sniffs eyes shiny with tears as he looks at me.

"Ace, oh sparky...You gotta tour, this is all part and parcel of being a rock star. And please my love, this is different now. I can't tour with you like this...and besides, I need to try and rest. It's not your fault! I have a good reason this time to not want to be manager...we have a child to think about, think about our son. It will be ok I promise you.", I soothe him. I feel so much love from him and he manages a smile.

"How'd I ever get so lucky lightning bug? Your right, I just hope that I'm home in time for you to give birth to our son. I mean I know in like 2 months we have a break of a week or so, but still, I hate not being here for you. ", Ace's voice is soft and then he brings me into a loving kiss, and I feel sparks, just like the first time he kissed me, and I don't think that will ever change.

When we part for breath and my hands join Ace's in feeling our son move.... he once more speaks, "I love you and our son so very much, you'll always be with me."

"Oh, that reminds me, uh I got you something...well somethings.", I say as I rummage thru a bag, I had with me and I find what I'm looking for and hand him some ultra-sound photos and a locket, which he opens and sees a picture of him and I inside.

"Oh Tommy!" he chokes out.

"This way you'll have us with you sparky, love you..." and then once again everything fades....

I wake up with a start, the room is still dark, and tears are streaming down my face. My dreams or were they really dreams as they felt so real.... They were beautiful.... what is my heart trying to tell me? I mentally smack myself; my heart knows and it's obvious I very much love Ace, I love him still. I just need some more time; I want so much for Ace to feel the same.... I can't help but wonder what he's doing now...Is he sleeping? Is he even thinking of me? And then I think, in my dreams he kept saying that he was sorry...maybe he is sorry? I turn over and once more drift off to sleep...

A/N: Can't wait to hear your thoughts on this!!
