All For Nothing

Chapter 40

 When we got back from out beautiful day at the park Alex had a show to do. He told me about wanting to go out to dinner or something, I told him that I was worn out from the park and I would like to stay on the bus. Maybe if I feel better I would go out with him tonight. We walked hand in hand to the bus where the boys were doing their own stuff. I went to the back changing into sweatpants and slippers. Alex switched shirts kissing me before he goes. I locked the bus up heading back into the bunks. I went to our bed and took out my phone calling my mom.

“Hey mom!” I said after letting it ring for some time,

“Hello princess, how are you doing?” I pulled a movie out if the collection and put it in. I locked our bedroom door and got comfy.

“I am great actually, we just got back from our four months date.” I told her.

“Oh girl tell me about it!” I laughed pulling a blanket over me.

“Well as soon as we stopped the bus we gave each other our gifts. It was so cute cause we both got Build-A-Bears. Mine is just too cute. After the exchange we went to this park where he had a picnic ready for us on the hill. It was a fruit salad and some pasta for after.”

“That is a crazy combination.” she said laughing some.

“Oh yeah it is. When we were done eating we walked around the park and went to some shops by it. There was this baby store a decent walk away and we had to stop by. I let him pick out some clothes. Gender neutral ones of course! They were brown with green stitching saying “I love daddy” Alex went crazy over those. We got them for when the babies are born so they will have some swag.”

“Awe I can not wait till I see those. I can tell he is really getting ready to be a father.” I smiled wide at that looking at my stomach.

“He really is mom. He is just too perfect. I know that there is no such thing as perfect, but he is. I can't believe I have him mom. He is way too good for me.”

“Krissiee, he is what you have always needed. After ...him... I could tell that you have changed your view about many things. Especially boys and you dating them. Once I saw how you and him are together it reminds me of your father and I. I haven't seen you truly smile from when we moved to Vegas. Once you stepped out that plane with him I could tell that you have been changed. He has made you like how you were before. That child that was always laughing and smiling. You two were made for each other Krissiee so don't ever doubt anything between you two.” during that speech of hers I started to cry because it was so true.

“Thank you mom. For everything.” I said not really knowing what to tell her.

“Anytime dear. Just remember what I told you because if you get those thoughts again just remember. It will help you make your relationship stronger and better. He loves you so much Krissiee. He would do anything for you.”

“Thank you mom. Oh I wanted to run some plans with you.” I said remembering why I really called her for.

“Okay. Shoot!”

“well for thanksgiving I would like to go to see Alex's family up in Maryland. Is that alright with you?”

“Of course.”

“Okay, then for Christmas I was thinking about throwing a surprise for you and Alex's family. Well I will tell you but don't tell dad or Jamie! I was thinking about renting a cabin up in Colorado for maybe less than a week. It will be two days before Christmas.”

“That would be so wonderful!”

“It's a great way for both of the families to meet.”

“It would! I can't wait till I see the parents.”
