Rydel's POV

I'm sucked into a world of hazy dreaminess as I feel a soft pair of lips slowly collide with mine.  I kiss the lips back as I snuggle up to their owner.  Not ready to open my eyes, I pull the covers back over myself as I rest my head on my Ellington's chest.  His strong hands wrap around my waist and he pulls me onto his lap.  I slowly open my eyes to see his chocolate brown eyes staring into mine.  

"Good morning, my love," he whispers before he gently starts kissing down my jawline.  I cup his face in my hands and pull his lips back onto mine as he lays me down on the bed.  The kiss deepens as I run my hands through his soft brown hair.  

All of a sudden, I hear soft cries.  I jump a little as Ellington gets off me and hops off the bed.  He picks up a little baby before bringing it over to me and plopping it in my arms.  The baby gazes deep into my eyes as I run my hand through his copper brown hair.  

"Well, I guess he just missed his mommy, didn't you, little buddy?" Ellington smiles as the baby before kissing his forehead.   I am hypnotized by the sweet little boy as he stares into my soul.  My heart begins to swell with happiness as I stare down at my son.  He's the perfect combination of Ellington and I.  He's just perfect in general.  I look up at Ellington and give him a smile, and he smiles right back at my with pride.  

"I'm gonna go make my beautiful little family some breakfast," he smiles as he walks out of the room and slams the door behind him.  

Suddenly, my eyes shoot open and my heart fills with sadness as I realize Ellington and I aren't living happily with a newborn baby.  We're living at some random peoples' house in Milwaukee.  I let out a sigh before being slightly startled by the shower turning on in the bathroom connected to our room.  Ellington. I need to tell him that I've made my decision; we're getting pregnant.  

I eagerly hop off of the bed and slowly enter the bathroom.  I quietly take off my pajamas before opening the shower curtain and stepping inside to find Ellington smirking at me.  

"I've been expecting you," he states as he moves me in front of the water.  

"How'd you know I was coming?" I ask as he picks up the shampoo bottle.  

"I heard you open the door," he giggles as he starts massaging shampoo through my hair.  

"Oh," I giggle back at him as he kisses me on the cheek.  I turn his face towards mine and plant a passionate kiss on his lips.   We pull away and spend the next few minutes washing each other in silence.  Although he’s being very patient, I can tell by the way Ellington is pacing nervously that he is dying to know my decision.  He keeps his lips sealed, but gives me a nervous pleading glance.  

“I wanna have a baby,” I state confidently.  

“Ok,” he breaths in relief.  Whether he is relieved because he got an answer, or because he actually wanted a baby, I don’t know, but I’m glad that’s out of the way.   Ellington’s arms wrap around me has he plants his lips onto mine and grinds himself against me.  

“Not now,” I hiss at him.  “We can’t do it here.”

“Then where do you suggest we do it?” he questions as he shuts off the water.  

“I don’t know...do you still have that four hundred dollars?” I ask as I grab a towel and wrap it around myself.  

“Yeah,” he answers as he does the same as me.  

“Well then maybe we should say we’re going for a walk, go get a hotel room, and try there,” I suggest.  

“Ok, now let’s get dressed,” Ellington sighs as he dries his hair.  Since we don’t have any other clothes, we change into our tank tops and shorts that we’d been wearing for who knows how long.  Once we’re dressed, we put in our contacts and follow the scent of food into the kitchen.
