~Ashley's p.o.v. still~

Once we where home after a few weeks in the hospital, we converted my old makeshift recording studio into a nursery. Light wanted a hot pink room. Hell to the no.

"Come on L. No child of mine will have that on the walls." I said pointing to the fifty shades of pink color samples.

"But she's a girl Ash. Even I like a little pink."

I gave her that. But I couldn't help but sigh. "What about black and pale pink diamonds?"

A twitch of a smile tempted the corners of her mouth. "I can make it work." She was reaching for her sketch book before she even finished and was sketching. Once she was done she flipped it over so I could see.

"There. Happy?" Alternating black and a some kinda mix of hot pink and light pink. Red almost.

"Now that I can live with. But, with my old studio into a nursery, we have to do something with the equipment."

Her face went from a huge smile to a uh-oh frown. "Like what? What space do you have left?"

I rubbed the spot between my eyebrows. "The basement. I'll fix it up and turn it into a new studio."

She didn't look pleased. "Really Ash? Another studio?"

"It's my house. Since you where living with Jimxx. It's a lot easier than going down to a studio when I have one right here. When we practice I just bring in a mix tape. I've been doing this a long time L."

She sighed, defeated. "Okay, okay, you can have your studio. But we need to get movin on the nursery." I gave her that. But not only the nursery, I have a surprise engagement planned. But trying to keep a secret from L is like trying to keep a hungry lion from attacking a gazelle. I have been doing a lot of looking on my phone. The one thing she can't control.

But finding the right one is impossible.. And I can't tell the guys because they'll snitch on me to L. I sighed and L heard. I swear her hearing will get her in trouble one of these days.

"Okay Babe?"

Act normal. Act normal. Act normal. "Yeah. Never better." Dammit! I sounded like a robot. She'll think somethin's up.

"Okay. Lets start with the crib. Are we taking it out of our room?"

"I guess. I mean we can since all my shits in the living room." I said glancing around the bare walls that used to be covered with equipment and posters. You could tell stuff was on the wall by the color differences.

She stood up. "We don't have to do it today.. Like tomorrow or Wednesday. But I don't want anything in here till the walls are done." She's usually the bossy one. I just go along with it so I don't get my balls ripped off.. You don't want to see Light pissed. Not for the faint of heart.

"Yes ma'am. So she's still in our room for the time being?" I layed down on my back on the hard wood floor.

She giggled. "Stop calling me 'ma'am' Ash. I'm not a drill Sargent."

"You sound like one.. Sometimes.."

She walked over and layed ontop of me. She was lighter than a feather. Even after Autumn. "When do I sound like a drill Sargent?"

She was inches from my face, I tried not to kiss her. "Uh.. When you get mind set.. Like with the nursery.."

Her lips brushed mine, teasing me. She would do that. "Only because I want Autumn in here and out of our room so we can have our fun." She winked. I do the winking. This is so unfair. Teasing I'm cool with. But winking, no way. So I kissed her but barely making contact. Two can play this game.
