Sex, Crϋe and Ratt 'N' Roll, A Ratt & Mӧtley Tale

Chapter 56- A Day in the Life of An Alien and his Mate (Mick Mars)

I can remember well poor Vince having it rough with morning sickness, finding out he was pregnant at his wedding and then down the line, the shock of finding out he was having twins. He had a rough time in general for quite a while, but Stephen was a devoted and loving partner handling Vince's mood swings well, which from what I know wasn't easy. It didn't matter to Stephen, he loved Vince even more and took care of him. We all supported him, Paul, and I especially, I mean he lived with us for a time...he and Nikki both were and are like sons, they are family period. Tommy Lee-DeMartini though, was the one with the most 'twin' experience. I digress, Paul was at this time was four months pregnant with our second child...it being October still and fall, my favorite time of year....in any case, where you will find the alien and his mate, will be a few days after Vince was released from the hospital and so were the De-Martini twins.

Paul insisted i.e., demanded to fix dinner, despite my arguing he needed to be off his feet. Hope even tried to fuss at her mother, I was in our studio/practice room as again Paul insisted.... but I can't fucking concentrate, so here I am headed towards the kitchen, smelling the most delicious smells, and the murmur of Paul's voice talking to Hope and upon entering the kitchen, I forget how to breath at the sight before me......

Raven curls, gleaming.... small smile playing about his lips...those full pouting lips and that swollen stomach, once more housing our unborn child.... a starry-eyed angel indeed and our daughter, who takes after us both.... a scene that it's hard to believe for so long, I never thought I'd get to see, to LIVE it.

I make a noise and Paul turns from the stove and my heart stops....

"You're staring Mick.... I can never get over how you look at me." Paul blushes, making his brown doe eyes pop.

"I could argue much the same." I tell my husband greeting him with a kiss, carefully pulling him down to me, before giving his swollen stomach affection me laughing when the baby kicks at my hands and I laugh, "Taking after mommy already!"

Before Paul can reply, Hope chimes VERY adorably I may add with, "Dat wight...now, daddy kissy me!"

I scooped her up and gave her butterfly kisses and hugs, her giggles filling the air, before putting her back in her highchair.

And I decide to help my husband finish dinner, despite his protests and I wind up serving since he complains about being sore, so I get him settled, massaged, and serve up the delicious meal my husband lovingly prepared, all the while there are tears in his eyes, and we all talk while we eat as a family and Paul pauses a moment in thought before grinning at me....

"Oh! I mean to tell you....and you're not gonna believe this, or maybe you will but he and Gene FINALLY got together, apparently Eric threatened to leave the band, well he had been...but this time he was serious...Sooooo, Gene pulled his head out of his ass and went after Eric. Bout time, Eric's been in love with Gene for years now."

"I believe it babe, finally indeed...our plan to get them together has borne fruit. Tell me..." Here I smirk widely, "Does Gene know WHOSE idea it was?"

Paul smirks back, his reply silky, "He'll never know." Paul startles me but a moment as he bursts into laughter, "Your son, is very much amused." Oh yes, our son.... just find out our second child is a boy.

"Alien Jr." I quip fondly.

"Brudda need name!" Hope chimes in. Paul and I share a look.

"Well Mick she's not wrong, it would be better than calling him 'jr.' all the time. Did you have any ideas?"

Before I can reply, Hope DOES....

"Name afta' tar!" (Name after Guitar)

"After my Les Paul? "I question her, an eager little nod. I turn to my beloved mate, taking my hand in his, "What do you think Paul? It would also have your name.... I think it will fit our son. But you get final say."

"It sounds perfect." Paul gets emotional and I am in much the same way. We continue eating, Hope making a big mess despite her mother and I helping her eat. Before long dinner is eaten, and I get Paul settled on the couch telling him to rest, as I clean the kitchen, wash dishes, and then give Hope a bath, which Paul sassily demands to help with or be there for and I don't have the heart to tell him no, nor would i. I hold Hope and manage to help Paul upstairs to our bathroom, getting him comfortable with him minding our daughter as I gather her bedtime outfit, little towels and get her bath started, and she immediately starts splashing around. "You happy Hope, about your brother having a name?" Paul asks her, hands on his stomach.

"Uh-huh, cited!" Hope declares.

"Mommy and I are glad you're excited." I told her.

"I hep name!"

Paul chuckles as do I, "You did sweetheart."

Somehow Hope is bathed, given that she was so excited and wouldn't hardly be still long enough, I change her into her little gown...a training diaper and she declares she wants to cuddle in bed with her mother and I before bedtime, so that is what we do and I can never tell you how much I love doing things like that, the feel....the love, it means so much. Hope quickly dozes off, so I get her settled in her little bed, making sure she is ok, and I make my way back to Paul, who is in tears, and I rush to his side....

"You ok starry eyes, our son, ok?" Concerned.

"I-I.... I.... just, he's o-ok.... it's just...that you.... your way. Mick, you do so much.... i still can't believe at times, this is my life...OUR life together, I love it." I get Paul's message loud and clear.

I kiss him, pouring my love and longing into it before kissing his swollen stomach, our son moving at my touches, as Paul's hands join mine before I reply...

"I hear you, and I know just how you feel. I never thought.... you'd ever chose me, someone like me when we first met before that tour started, but.... you....it wasn't just your looks, it was...you. It was you....and then we almost got kicked off that tour and you stopped that from happening, and by the end of the tour we married, cause I could NEVER picture my life without you in it. I fucking love you babe."

"I love you more Mick." Both of us in tears, emotional.... basking in our love for one another and our son, moves and kicks...he feels it too, I know he does.

A day in the life of an alien and his mate, so much love and affection.... just US. Our family and our love continued to grow and it's still doing so today all these years later. Before long from this day, it wouldn't be too much longer until the wedding that we once never could have seen coming occurred: the wedding of Nikki Sixx to Robbin Crosby.
