Time; Don't Let It Slip Away

Sweet Home Alaska Where We Do The Birthday Boogie

"Steven.... the baby..." I grumbled, and rolled over.

"It's your turn." He yawned.

"It's always my turn." I rolled my eyes, climbed out of bed, and shuffled to the door.

I made my way slowly down the hall of our L.A home, to the bedroom we Steven and I fixed up for the baby. 

I flicked on the lights, and strolled over to the large white crib set up in the center of the light yellow-walled room. 

I picked up my daughter, and craddled her in my arms.

"Alaska, my little gypsy, what's wrong?" I cooed, looking down at her. Though she had gorgeous hair like Steven's, she had stunning blue eyes, similar to mine. 

She opened her eyes, and peeked up at me through her dark lashes, and instantly stopped her wailing.

"I'll tell you one thing, you sure have a set of pipes.." I chuckled "Maybe one day, you'll be a singer, just like Mommy, and Daddy."

I continued staring into her dazzling eyes, while gently rocking her, coaxing her back into a deep sleep.

"Maybe, when you're old enough, I'll teach you to play guitar, or volleyball, or softball, or anything you want to learn, or know... I'll always be there to teach you." 

I hadn't noticed when, but a slow stream of tears were running down my cheeks. Being a mother completely changes things..

It's amazing how much someone, or something, can effect you. 

I continued to gently bounce back and fourth, pushing her into a deeper sleep. 

"Ali, you need to help me pick out a birthday present for Daddy, in the morning, so you need to get your rest." I smiled, and kissed her tenderly on her forehead. 

"She's the perfect birthday present." I turned around to see Steven leaning up against the door frame, just watching us. "I don't need anything but you two lovely ladies."

"It's funny how she was born the day before you were.." I sighed a little. 

Steven walked over to me, and planet a tender kiss on my lips, and then took Ali from my arms. 

"Hey Gypsy Blue..." He cooed at the sleeping child in his arms. "Daddy loves you so much.. You know that, right?"

I looked at the beautiful man before me, and realized that I was happy. This was my life; Married to a sexy rockstar, with a beautiful baby girl, and a killer job. I was honestly truly happy. 

Nothing could get me down. 

Steven's silky voice broke me out of my reverie. 

"Baby, she's asleep." He kissed her on the forehead, set her down in her crib, and then turned to me. "Are you gonna come back to bed?"

"Judging by the tone in your voice, I feel like I don't have much of an option." I chuckled.

"No.." He grinned, as something sparkled in his dark eyes. "You don't."

He picked me up, so I could wrap my legs around his waist, and kissed me passionately, while carrying me back into our bedroom. 

He walked through the door and over to the large four poster bed set up at the far wall of the room, where he sat me down.

"I've missed you." He giggled in between kisses. 

He kissed me passionately on the lips, and then made his way, nibbling, down my jaw and onto my neck. 

I let a small moan escape from my lips, allowing him to continue. 

He pulled me out of the tank top I was wearing, and then slipped off my shorts, continuing to send kisses down my chest, and onto my stomach. 

"S-Steven.." I gasped, as another moan errupted from the back of my throat. 

I felt him nibbling on my hips, kissing down, and onto my inner thigh.

"Steven!" I gasped again, as I felt him kissing my most sensitive area. 

After a few minutes, he trailed another line of kisses up my hips, stomach, and chest, stopping for a moment to nibble at my jaw line, then finding my lips once again.

He plunged himself into me, with a gasp.

"Oh, Mia!" he sighed. "I've missed you so much." He whispered into my ear, as we moved together.

Somehow, we flipped over, so I ended up on top of him, resulting in him pushing deeper.

It felt as though we were doing the tango off the edge of the cliff of pleasure.

"Oh! Steven!" I cried out, as I fell on top oh him, with a heavy gasp. 

He rolled over, once more, so he was lying on top of me, stroking my curves with his strong hands. 

"Mia, I love you more than anything in the world." he hummed into my neck. 

"I love you too." I chuckled, kissing the top of his head, as it rested on my chest.
