Falling Backwards

It's a...

Month: Early September

AYLSON'S POV:

Rocky tightly held my hand as we walked through the spacious living room of a house we were looking at. Riker had come with us to look around for the day. Our Realtor was talking our ear off, "19th century wood slats on the ceiling," We looked up to the ceiling, "That is gorgeous," Rocky commented, looking at me.

I looked to the realtor, "How many bedrooms did you say?" "4..." I looked at Rocky, he knew how particular I was, "Baby, I know it's the three of us for now, but I'd like to have a lot of bedrooms." Rocky nodded, "Yeah, we were hoping to look for five bedrooms Dan," he said. "Well, I thought this was worth showing, as one of them is pretty big," Rocky looked at me, "The master?" he questioned. "Why, yes! It's this way!"

He led us through the rest of the house, I was tired and hungry. Finally I wasn't nauseous all the time and I could eat at least a meal a day, usually lunch. We saw the backyard, it had a pool and wide open space, but we didn't want a pool without a gate around it. We were going to have a little one. Riker kept shaking his head, "this house isn't really you guys, It's great, but it's not y'all,"

I wasn't too in love with this house either; it wasn't beachy and modern enough. Rocky could tell I wasn't impressed. "Hey, why don't we grab some lunch and then see the next one," he suggested, thank you Rocky. Our realtor nodded, he had something to do before our next showing so we all went to lunch without him. We had already seen 10 houses over the past few days and we hadn't had much luck. Rocky even began to consider us building a home.

After we got lunch we met outside his office and we drove to an area within walking distance of the beach. The neighborhood was family friendly, it was gated, and it was beautiful and calming. We were only 35 minutes from my parent's house, 5 minutes from the Lynch's house, and able to walk to the beach. Before I even saw the house I knew I was in love.

It was beige paneled, and two stories. It had a long driveway and a beautifully done yard. Rocky smiled the second we pulled up. "Wow," I said, breath taken. "Rocky, I love this," he nodded, "Me too," Riker was sitting in the back. He got out with us and walked to the front door. It was bright white. Dan let us in and we opened into a spacious living area and kitchen to the right. The stairs spiraled up. "So, to the right we have a kitchen," he started telling us about the house. "Hiding behind the kitchen and laundry area is a hallway here, we call it the mother in law room, but can also be used for new baby, while you're up late," He smiled reassuringly at us. Rocky placed his hand on my stomach and kissed my cheek. "I like this so far," he said to me. "Me too, babe," I said to him. We walked into the master bedroom on the other side of the house; it was spacious. The bathroom had two closets, his and hers, each big enough to hold at least a queen sized bed comfortably.

Downstairs there was an office, another living room, and the kitchen and dining room of course. We looked outside at the backyard. We were so close to the beach, but we had a pool in the huge backyard and even better, there was a gate around the pool, signaling they had had kids here.

I knew I was sold on the house before we walked up stairs, but I saw two bedrooms right off the bat that were decorated for kids rooms and I sat down on one of the window seats. Rocky held my hand and I couldn't help but smile at it being our baby's room. Rocky walked over to Dan, "Let's see the rest of the upstairs, we're making an offer," he said. I hugged him, "Really?!" I kissed him. "Really,"

We walked into the room that would be Riker's if he kept living with us, although he was pretty set on taking over our apartment and getting Rydel and Ellington to live with him. He still had no idea, nor did the rest of the family know that Rydellington was even a thing.
