BEXLEY TURNER
"COMING THROUGH," HAYDEN WARNS as he carries a table into our house. I quickly move out of his way as he passes me. To say our lives have been busy is an understatement. Since that day at Hayden's apartment back in Hood River, life has been a non-stop parade of chaos. A little more than two days after Chrissy and Jared returned from their honeymoon, Hayden and I purchased a house on the outskirts of Portland. The house was a little four-bedroom, two-bath with a backyard, garage, and basement. We put the deposit down as soon as we saw it. I immediately knew it was the one to raise our family, current and future.
A few months soon passed before we were able to finally start moving into the home we could call ours. Both Hayden and I's vehicles were filled with boxes and furniture as we hauled all of our stuff from Hayden's apartment. The drives there and back weren't bad. It was only a little over an hour, but getting my stuff from California was a bit more of a challenge. Most of my stuff was flown over on a plane that cost a good chunk of money. And the stuff that wasn't flown, Audrey brought with her on her move up here.
Out of everyone, I thought Nash would be upset at the move, but he loves it here. He does miss hanging out with Liam but they'll still be able to visit just like Chrissy and Jared will be. At the house, Nash has a swing set in the backyard, and a treehouse from previous owners...Though, Hayden has to do some work on it before I'll let Nash play on it. But overall, Nash is happy. We even decided to get a puppy for the family after the move. We named the little golden retriever Baxter and Nash is of course his favorite. Though secretly, Baxter loves me the most.
"How's the little one?" Hayden asks as he steps into the very empty kitchen. Boxes are scattered along the floor but that's about it. He stands behind me, caressing my almost visible baby bump in his large palm. His heat makes me sigh, loving the feeling of him hugging me as he rubs my belly.
"They're perfect, I'm perfect. Everything is perfect." I lean back against him, closing my eyes before opening them as I watch Baxter chase Nash into the living room. A giggle slips past my lips and I stand there in Hayden's embrace.
About a month and two weeks after the intimacy Hayden and I shared together, we found out we were expecting. I told him as soon as I found out, trusting him more than ever. The condom had split and my birth control failed me, but I wasn't upset about the surprise. Hayden was nervous at first, but after processing the news, he was just as ecstatic as me. The timing was right and I wasn't scared about providing for another child. Hayden has a job and I'm going to be opening a tattoo shop with Audrey in the local shopping plaza later this year, so I'll also be employed.
We're both able to support our family in more ways than one and that makes me so happy. Everything is amazing. Life has been smooth, only a few pebbles getting in our way but Hayden and I always managed to overcome the little obstacles that threaten us.
"I'm so in love with you," he whispers in my ear, nipping at my earlobe. Ever since we found out we're expecting, our free time has been spent in the bedroom, in the shower, on the couch, even over the damn countertop. Hayden promised to fuck me on every surface in our home by the time our baby is born. He had no complaints from me. I'll always be his willing participant.
