The Fight (Stefonnie)

Chapter 18

Stefan held her close then kissed her head as her smile grew even wider. They were at the airport waiting on the flight to Los Angeles. Bonnie couldn't contain her excitement but she also didn't want to embarrass her family so she just held on to Stefan giving her arms something to do other than jazz hands.

Their babies were napping and they hoped that they'd stay that way for majority of the flight.

"You know what I just realized?"

"What?"

"I'm scared of heights."

Stefan chuckled. "I'll take the window seat and keep the blinds closed." He ran his hand down her hair as she looked up at him. They kissed.

Stefan had to leave his girls pretty quickly after their arrival, so Bonnie thought that she take them exploring. She was so grateful that Jacob allowed Olivia to tag along, it would've been hard for her to truly enjoy this experience without her there.

"Mom, can we go shopping?"

"Of course we can. It's a good thing I snatched up daddy's credit card before he left." She smiled.

"Thanks, man."

"No problem." Ryan said paying for their meals.

"I'll pay you back, my wife must've took my card without me looking."

He chuckled. "Been there."

"You're married?" They found seats near the window.

"Nah, I got a girl though. I'm not sure if I'm the married type, but I don't know. We've been together for awhile."

"So why not take it to the next level?"

"That's what everyone asks, but I honestly don't have an answer. I guess I'm just not ready, you know?"

"Hm," Stefan thought. "Well-" he was cut off by the vibration in his pocket then excused himself seeing that it was his card stealing wife. "You're in big trouble later."

"They don't have food there?"

"We're officers, we eat like cows, I had no chance getting anything that was served." He smiles when she laughs.

"I'm sorry but come on, we're girls, we need to shop."

"I guess." She chuckled. "I miss you, babe."

She frowned and he heard it through the phone when she responded, "I miss you too. When you get back, we'll go to the beach."

"Yeah, that'll be fun. Hey, I gotta go, but I'll see you in a few hours."

"Alright. I love you."

"I love you more. Bye, baby."

"Bye."

Bonnie removed the phone from her ear with a puff then ended the call.

"Was that dad?"

"Yeah, he said he'll be back soon and then we can all go to the beach."

"Yay!"

Bonnie smiled and they continued their walk around the mall.

They were all smiles as Stefan reached his arm over bringing it around his wife then met their lips a few times. "You gonna rub me down later, baby?"

She smiled. "I guess."

He laughed a little then kissed her shoulder. "I'll do you first, how bout that?"

"I guess that's a little better." She smiled over at him.
