"OMG, you can’t make me marry you. I have already told you many many times before. I am not ready to lose my sexy figure carrying your babies" Ashley said sarcastically.

"But you would look so adorable with a pregnant belly" I tell her but she turns away and pouts. "Aww don’t be like that, come here" as I move out of my chair and around to face her and lift her chin to look me in the eyes. "I love you Ashley Davies-soon to be Carlin and I will wait forever for you to be my wife."

Now looking at me she smiles and pulls me into an passionate embrace as I nuzzle into her neck and place a small kiss there. "I know. I know, Spencer. That’s just a really big step and even though what we have is better than perfect I just want to have a stable life for us before we bring any child into this world and screw it up." I pull her from the tight embrace and tell her that would never happen as long as we love and care for each other and our baby.

"Okay, I’m about to start crying and I don’t want to plus I have this all set up for us to have breakfast. And before you say anything, no, I didn’t cook it."

Wheew. I ate her pancakes once and the outcome was not pleasant.

"I’m sure whatever you would have made would have been wonderful" I say putting on a fake grin.

"Oh, yeah right Spencer. My feelings are still hurt from the way you couldn’t even pretend to like my pancakes. Some girlfriend you are" she let out with a giggle.

As we finish our breakfast with light conversation and talks of what we plan for the rest of the day I decided that I have been put through enough torture with the near death head concussion and all that I want to just be lazy and watch movies and cuddle. "Emphasis on CUDDLE. Don’t try any funny business with me missy. I still haven’t recovered from our last trip to ‘The Place’ and I have the marks to prove it."

"Fine" she puts her hands up in surrender and says she will go draw me a bath, and with that she’s off to the bathroom after placing a quick kiss on my cheek.
