Breaking Ice

Chapter 34

Luke's POV:

      Today is the day I turn in the final version of my play to Maggie the owner of the theatre. I've been in dozens of plays at her theatre. This may be the most nerve wracking thing I've done in my life. Marrying Steve was easy all I had to do was kiss the idiot. He still hasn't read my play, he's bitter to say the least.

"Babe I'm leaving, love you" I said kissing him

"Nooo let me read it first" he said reaching for my binder.

"Nope you have to wait until June" I grinned

"Fuck you Lucas" he said putting his head under the pillow

"Baby" I whined getting into bed again

"Nope no kissing until you let me read it" He said rolling away from me

"Welp I guess you will be kissless the rest of your life" I laughed

"Rude" he sighed

"I'm going to be late my love, I'll meet you at the bar when I'm done"

   I grabbed my keys and went down the stairs. The meeting was at nine and it was nearly eight forty. Bless Amelia for making coffee. My to-go cup was on the counter with a breakfast bar. I love her, wow.

Rushing out the house, I got into my truck and began driving to the theatre. I was ten minutes late, fuck. After saying a few hellos in the lobby I went up the stairs to Maggie's office.

"Maggie I'm so sorry I'm late" I said with a heavy breathe

"That's alright Lucius" She laughed "sit down"

"Congratulation's by the way, how's she doing" I smiled looking at the picture of her newborn

"She's amazing, messy but amazing. Now onto your play, may I?" She asked pointing towards the binder

"Oh yeah, so are you gonna be editing it at all? I really worked hard on this, years to make this perfect and I don't want to change anything too much"

"Don't worry Lucius. I won't, maybe just some stage actions, no dialogue I promise you" She grinned

"Thank you. I'm probably being over protective"

"I get it, it'll probably take me a week or two to get through it but I'll get it to you before Christmas" she grinned

"Alright wow. This is all so real now" I sighed

"Yeah it is. So I'll see you Saturday for the casting?"

"No, Steve and I have a meeting. I'm not going to do this show" I sighed, I was kind of bummed about it but a baby was so much more important to me

"Oh well, the stage will miss you. Tell Steve hello for me" She grinned

"Kiss that baby for me" I smiled standing up

Before leaving I sat in on the Junior Theatre rehearsal. They were so cute. I directed Little Red Riding Hood a little over a year ago and I fell in love. It's so crazy to think fifteen years ago I hated kids, hell even four years ago. Now I'm head over six inch stilettos.

I couldn't careless if we adopt a boy or a girl. I just want a tiny bundle of hope and love. Steve and I are going to be so much better than my parents. I am going to be such a good dad. Fuck. I am so fucking ready.

I left the theatre and drove to the bar. Steve was flipping bottles as he does.

"Bartender can I get a Strawberry Whiskey Lemonade" I yelled trying to sound manly

"Sounds like we are celebrating" Steve grinned kissing me across the bar "but really Pink lemonade"

"It still has whiskey, I don't want to get too drunk before tonight" I grinned

"What are we doing tonight" he smiled biting his lip

"Nope none of that. We are looking at babies you dumb ass" I smiled

"Ok but after looking at babies let's make a baby" he smiled

"I physically can not do that Steven I am a man" I laughed

"No you aren't you're a baby boy, my baby boy" he said in a sexy whisper

"I'll be right back" I said standing up

"Always works" he yelled as I went into the bathroom hallway

When I came out of the restroom I heard yelling. It was 1 in the afternoon who is drunk enough to yell.

"Do not talk about her like that get the fuck out of my bar" it was Steve yelling

"Babe" I said rushing under the bar

Travis was on the other side. Great.

"Travis what are you doing here" I asked trying to calm down Steve

"I came to get a drink and your boyfriend over here started yelling at me" Travis said slurring

"You're drunk and started talking all types of shit about Amelia"

"She's cheating on me. Did you know that? Fucking around with some other guy. She fucking dumped me because I broke a cd a fucking cd! I have the exact same one in my car"

"It was Isaac's favorite cd. And it was Josh's" Steve yelled

"She was planning on breaking up with you anyways. Could you not tell? When you went to kiss her when the kids won she moved her head. She didn't want to be with you anyways. She was just waiting for the right time" I laughed

"Fuck you. Fuck your freak nephew. Fuck your idiot niece. Fuck your crazy husband. Fuck your whore of best friend" Travis yelled turning around and walking out the door

   Steve tried breaking out of my grasp but I was too strong for him. I guess carrying sets really did make me grow some muscle.

"I'm going to kill him the next time he comes into this bar. I swear" Steve said still angry

"Babe go into your office and calm down I can handle the bar" I dis kissing him.

He took a couple napkins and a bottle of vodka and walked out of the bar.

"I'm so sorry about that. Can I get you guys anything" I asked the bar guests while taking off my tie
