Chapter 38

August 13th

Jack and Jackie's bedroom

Jackie woke up and rubbed her stomach. She could feel the baby moving. She then felt this pain, like a punch. Jackie wriggled Jack around. "Jack wake up!" She squeaked. Jack woke up instantly. "What is it kid?!" Jack panicked. She took his hand, and placed it on her stomach. "Look feel here" she smiled. They waited. Jack then felt a sudden movement under his hand. 

He was so overwhelmed. He looked at Jackie. "Oh my God!" Jack smiled. Jackie giggled. "It's kicking!" She smiled. Jackie found it hard to believe. Then the pain got stronger as the other baby Kennedy kicked too. "Oh my gosh!" Jackie squeaked. Jack pulled her into a hug. "Oh I'm so happy kid!" Jack kissed his wife. Jackie blushed. "I am proud to say that you're their father and you're my husband" Jackie kissed him. 

Jack's eye than spotted the clock. It said 10:30. "Oh no!" Jack dashed up. "What?!" Jackie panicked. "What is it?!". "We need to be on Marine One at quarter to!" Jack reminded her. Jackie dashed through and woke the kids before they all struggled into clothes and made sure they had everything packed; before dashing out onto the lawn. 

Marine One

Private rooms

Jack and Jackie sat in the bedroom aboard Marine One. Caroline and John were already asleep on the sofa outside. 

Jackie lay on the bed before Jack jumped on beside her with a cheesy grin. They couldn't keep it together and exploded with laughter. "You know we can't do anything in here. The kids are outside" Jackie joked. Jack kissed her anyway. "I love you Jacqueline Bouvier" Jack caressed his wife's hand. It still got Jackie's heart to ache whenever he said that. 

"I love you too Jack Kennedy" Jackie smiled before kissing her husband gently. "You may be the President and the public image of this country, but you'll always be the dashing Senator from Massachusetts, who captured my heart" Jackie said with a faint smile. Jack loved it when she praised him. 

"And I know you're the style icon of the world, but you'll always be my Jackie, the young rider from New York" Jack made her heart ache with love again. They'd always be the perfect image for one another.
