Married to You (Daniel Seavey)

The Next Day

I woke up the following morning to see Gabby and Lavender on the other bed near the giant window, the boys are nowhere in sight.

"Can you say 'Good Morning Auntie Allie?" Gabby whispers to Lavender. She walks over to my bed and sits next to me.

"Good morning Lavender!" I say sitting up in an extra cheery tone. "Morning Gabby." I say turning to her.

"How are you feeling this morning." She asks.

"Fine, surprisingly." I answer. "Where are the boys?" I ask.

"Jack and Zach went down to go see if they could get the footage from the elevator from last nigh and Daniel went after them. Jonah and Corbyn went with to supervise." She says.

I laugh and take my hoodie off, completely forgetting about my bruised neck.

"Oh my goodness! What happened to you neck?" Gabby says pointing to it. I laugh at her replacements of words, due to Lavenders presence.

"Oh yeah, that was from the elevator. Daniel got a bit...carried away." I say embarrassed. She starts laughing.

"At least you had fun." She tells me. I roll my eyes and get up. I look through my suitcase for anything to cover it up.

"Everything I packed is for summer. Darn it!" I say remembering Lavender was in the room.

"We could use foundation to cover it." She suggests.

"Then lets do that." I say and rush to the bathroom to change.

I sit on the bed and she hands me Lavender. She starts to work on my neck, but it isn't covering it.

"It's not working." Gabby tells me taking a step back. Just then, Jonah walks into the room.

"Hey girls- holy shi-" He see's Lavender. "Ship!" Gabby gives him a look at the close call. "What happened to your neck?" He questions lifting my head up and examining my neck.

"Daniel happened." Gabby tells him. He starts laughing.

"It's not funny!" I tell him, holding a smile in. When someone laughs, I want to laugh. This was not the time.

"It kind of is." Gabby says stifling a laugh.

"Yeah, it's funny for you two. But if someone takes a picture and posts it, my family could see it!" I say.

"Okay, what things do you need. I can go somewhere and get them." Jonah offers.

"Well, my stuff isn't working. Maybe a scarf?" Gabby suggests.

"A scarf? In the middle of summer?" I say bouncing Lavender on my knee.

"A light one, that goes with your outfit." She says. I nod. She turns to Jonah. "Go to a store and find scarfs. Face Time us when you get there."

"On it." Jonah says. He runs out the door.

*A while later when Jonah calls*

"Okay, which one?" he questions pointing the camera at two scarfs.

"The first one." Gabby says.

"Thank you Jonah! I owe you one!" I say.

"Your welcome and I'll keep that in mind." He says before he hangs up the phone.

*Jonah comes back with the scarf*

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" I say giving Jonah a hug. He laughs.

"Your welcome." He says. "It's only 9am, lets go explore!"

We meet the guys in the lobby and head out. We meet up with my cousins Grier and Griffin. we have the whole day together.

*A couple days later*

I am packing my suit case up again for my trip down to Louisiana. I had told my family up in Wisconsin about the pregnancy and my cousin Griffin had threatened Daniel if he leaves me. But I reassured him that wasn't anything he needed to worry about.

"Need any help?" Gabby asks.

"Sure." I reply. She helps me start folding my clothes.

"Are you going to be okay? Flying alone I mean." She asks.

"Yeah, my sister is going to meet me at the air port. Then in a week, I come back to LA." I say perky. She laughs and we continue to chat and pack. Then Daniel comes in as I zip up my bag.

"Ready to go?" He asks. I can tell he's sad.

"Yes." I say. We meet everyone down stairs and head for the airport.

*at airport*

I get out of the car and Daniel gets my bags for me. He pulls me into a long hug.

"If anything happens, call me. I will be there as soon as I can and be safe." He tells me.

"I will. I love you." I reply.

"I love you too." He says and kisses the top of my head. "Remember that you are caring our child." 

"That's kind of hard to forget." I joke.

"I'm being serious. Be careful." He tells me

"I will be. Love you."

"Love you too." He replies. We share a long kiss and a tear roll down my cheek. He wipes my tear away. I turn around and walk through the doors with my bag.

I wave to him and he waves back. I turn around and go through push forward.
