~Chapter 41~

-SKYLARS P.O.V-

Leaving was always the hardest thing for me, for both of us. I look out the window as the sun begins to set leaving the sky a deep red that faded into dark purple . The music was turned down low and Hayley was asleep next to me and Taylor and Natalie were asleep in the back.  I turn the music up slightly and I lay my head back into the seat. I was exhausted. As I pull into the garage I lay my head back on the seat and close my eyes taking a deep breath. I wish that this time we didnt have to say goodbye, even if it was for another month, it didnt matter. It could be a year or one month it didn't matter, leaving always hurt the same. I missed having him home every night. I missed the messes him and Natalie would make. I missed the way they'd sing together and the way he'd teach her songs and she'd try to remember them and then sing them to me. I take a deep breath and I wake up Hayley, shaking her. "Are we home?"  She whispers stretching and I nod and she gets out and gets Taylor out of her car seat not waking her. I take Natty out of her car seat and she wraps her arms around my neck falling back asleep all the way. I open the trunk and grab my bag and Hayley gets hers and we go inside, all the lights turned off. Exhausted, we immediately both go to our rooms. I walk up the stairs and set the bag down going into Natalie's room and I lay her down in her "big girl" bed, as she called it, that she recently grew into. I cover her up in her teal and brown chevron comforter and I kiss her forehead and she wraps her arms around the teddy bear Hunter had given her before he left for tour. She slept with it everynight. I stand and walk out of the room shutting the door quietly and I take deep breath picking up my bag. I see a note on the door and I look at it curious as to what it was and how it got there. 'I couldn't make myself leave you again. -Hayes' it says and I smile and open the door and I see him standing there. I was happy, ecstatic, to see him there but what about the fans who had bought tickets to his shows. "What about the sh-" "I have to be in Nashville tomorrow anyways, so we came back early and I leave on Friday morning again." He says and I hug him not caring if he had to leave or why he was here, all I cared was that he was here. "What do you have to be home for?" I whisper and he goes to the door shutting it and behind the door was a beautiful dress that had a gold top with a sweetheart neckline that connected to a black skirt that flowed to the knees and in the middle was a black belt to connect the two pieces. On the ground was gold converse with black laces and I laugh and Hunter looks at me. "You're going to the CMA's with me." He says and I cover my mouth with my hand surprised. We had agreed to not go to award shows together back when we first started dating. "I thought we said-" "That was when we first started dating. I want my wife to sit beside me at the CMAs and walk down the red carpet with me." He says and I smile. "Will you go to the CMAs with me Skylar?" He asks and I nod smiling and he kisses me. "Did you pick out the dress?" "Hayley did, but I picked out the converse." "Of course you picked those out." I say and he laughs. "Do you like them?" "I love them." I say kissing him and he smiles. "Are we going to match?" I whisper and he opens the closet door and hanging on the inside was a fully black suit with a black bowtie. "You plan so well." I say laughing. "Well I'm married to you, I've learned a few things over the years." He says and I kiss him again. "I couldnt manage to say goodbye to you yet again." He whispers and I smile. "You never have to say goodbye, only I'll see you soon." I whisper and he nods. "Well I couldnt wait for soon to come." He whispers and I smile. "Me neither." I say and he smiles. "You look tired and tomorrow is going to be a long day, let's lay down." He whispers and I nod. "You've couldve told me in advance." "Then you would have stressed about it." "I would not!" "Really, what are you thinking about right now?" "The fact that I'm going to the CMAs tomorrow! I have to have my hair done, my nails done." I say and he laughs. "People will be here to get us ready and then we will head to the red carpet." He says and I nod taking a breath. "Are you nervous?" He whispers taking my hand and I shake my head. "As long as you're here I'm not." I whisper and he smiles kissing me. I quickly change into grey sweat pants and Hunters black and grey baseball tee and I pull my hair up looking at my stomach and I could see my small but noticeable bump. I lay down and Hunter pulls me too him. "Nice shirt." He says and I nod distracted. "People are going to figure out about the baby." I whisper and he nods placing his hands on my stomach. "They would have eventually, dont worry." "How are we going to tell everyone?" "Trust me, I have an idea." He whispers and I shake my head. "Should I be worried?" I whisper and he nods. "Cmon your married to me, you should always be worried." He whispers and I take a deep breath leaning my head on his chest. "Youre too much Hayes." I say laughing and he nods. "You know you love it." "Maybe," I whisper and he kisses my forehead. "I love messing with you." "I hate you." "I know, go to sleep." He whispers and I smile and he holds me tighter and I begin to feel my worries slip away as sleep settles in.
