Just Can't Let Her Go

Watch It

It had been about a month now, and Alicia was about on the verge of a mental breakdown. She had been so stressed with Finn, with planning the wedding which was just around the corner, and picking out her dress and the bridesmades dresses. Along with who would even be the bridesmaids. She also had gotten closer to Joe. She had spent many a day with him, Astrid seemed really attached to him as well. Joe seemed to love her too. They'd slept together, just once and it was...different. That was for sure. Joe was chiseled out, his muscles were so prominent and hard against her hands. His skin was so golden and tan, and his moans were just inexplicable. The way his gelled back hair fell down into his eyes was something to die for.

But he wasn't Harry. She didn't think solely on Joe when they were shagging, no she had Harry in the back of her mind the whole time.

"Alicia guests are arriving love." Harry said as he hugged he from behind. his large hands wrapping around her small body. He was rather dressed up from what she could see. He had on his regular blue jeans and a tight navy blue t-shirt. Rather dressed up for a birthday party. "You look pretty." He whispered in her ear.

Alicia had on a short flowy white to navy ombré dress, it came to mid-thigh and has tshirt like sleeves. Her feet covered in small navy blue vans that had suffered many years of wear so they looked a bit faded.

Harry adored the way her hair looked, it was messy almost as messy as it looked when they got a little wild together, yet she still looked put together. Her face barely had any makeup on it, and that was something he also adored. She didn't need all that crap to feel pretty, and she was confident with her own body.

"Harry, I'm happy for her." She said as she leaned back into him. Her head on his chest, he put his chin on her soft blonde hair and sighed.

"Of course, you should be. I can't believe it's been a year. Our little girl is getting big." Harry said as his fingers caressed her stomach gently, just enjoying touching her. "It's an unwelcome thought." He admitted, Harry wanted her to stay his little baby for as long as possible.

"Harry, she's only one." Alicia giggled as she turned around in his arms, looking up at him admiringly.

Harry smiled down at her, and kissed her. Her lips were irresistible, and her sweet voice made him half to be gentle and intimate with her. He then let go of her, and instead took her hand pulling her along gently.

"Shit, I forgot I let Astrid take another nap. I have to get her dressed!" Alicia said as she was now startled. "You go occupy everyone while I get her dressed." She said as she dropped his hand and went to the baby's room. She peered into the crib to see Astrid sleeping soundly. Alicia grinned for a moment, but then she slowly walked over and gently woke up Astrid.

She cried for a moment, wishing she hadn't been woken up. Astrid soon calmed herself down as her mum kissed her head and held her gently.

"Listen baby, your party is getting ready to start! Mommy needs to get you ready." Alicia told her as she continued to get her ready. She brushed out her hair and put it up in a bun and the slid on a small navy blue head band. "Do you want want to wear this today?" She asked as she showed her a really cute navy blue blouse.

"Otay." Astrid said as she let her mommy put it on her, and then put on her jeans. "No shoes." She demanded without hesitation.

"Fine, now come on sweetie." Alicia said as she picked Azie up and hustled down stairs. Everyone was their, all of Harry's acquaintances and friends. Alicia's friends from work and some of the patients that had gotten close to her. Alicia barely had time to scan over the crowd before Astrid shouted the most terrifying thing.

"Joe!"
