Nine weeks later: August 25, 1999

Crystal was in her resting stage. She had been through the nesting stage and their house was so clean you could eat off the floor. 

They had finally gotten the hospital bags packed and loaded into their SUV, the car seat was already loaded and ready for the baby. 

Now, for the past week, all she has done is just sit and rest. Which made Jordan really happy. He had been working on getting his solo career started and trying to go to the recording studio early in the morning so he can be back before she woke up. 

He has to help her out of bed and off the couch. She hates the fact she can't see her toes anymore. I had a salon bring their equipment and give her a pedicure here the other day. So she is ready for our beautiful baby boy. 

I have been giving her back massages and feet massages. I am doing anything and everything I can to make her more comfortable. We haven't made love in a couple of weeks because she can't lay flat anymore and that is fine with me. 

I never knew I could love someone so much but now I love her more than myself, I love her more than my mama. My entire world revolves around my wife. As I have watched her body grow while she carries my child, I would give my life to save hers. I don't think I could love anyone more than I love Crystal.

She had dozed off while watching a show on tv. Her head was laid in his lap and he ran his fingers through her hair. He always loved her hair it was like a dark brown reddish tint. She has red hair but not carrot top red and not an auburn color red but a pretty red. She has had people ask her where she got her hair color and she was like I was born with it. 

She was due in just a couple of weeks and his nerves were on edge. He was happy but worried. He was so afraid something bad would happen during labor. He knew it was going to be painful and that killed him to think of the pain she was going to have to endure to give him a child. For that, he would give her anything she wanted.

His manager called and told him they had a concert planned. He released his first solo album in May just three months ago and now they are wanting him to start touring. He told his manager he couldn't even think about touring with Crystal being pregnant. 

His album was produced faster than he ever imagined when he had discussed a solo career he figured it would take about a year to even get everything started. Literally four weeks after they decided to try for a baby and stop birth control he got the call.

They would start recording in January album was planned to be released in October but instead, they cut the album in under two months and got the album ready to be released on May 25th. 

When it hit the shelves it sold so quickly. They had discussed a tour but he had not agreed with Crystal being pregnant. She had tried to talk him into going but he refused. 

Crystal moved her head and he looked down at her and smiled. "Did you have a nice nap sweetheart?"

"I did a very nice nap. I had a nice dream too."

"Oh really? What was your dream about dear?"

"Me and you in a beach house. We were making love in the sand and then I woke up. It was a good dream. Can you help me up, babe? I have to pee, he is sitting on my bladder."

Jordan smiled, "of course, I can dear." He slid her head off his lap and got up he helped her up and wrapped his arms around her. He kissed her a deep passionate kiss. 

She smiled at him and went to the restroom. He was sitting on the couch when she returned wearing nothing but a smile. 

"Crystal, what are you doing, baby? Damn girl you already got me hard. You are so sexy."
