The final part of Joffrey and Annie's story*
Comments are always appreciated!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Annie turned and sat as well, leaning her head on his shoulder. He twisted his head, placing a kiss on top of hers. "Do you think you'll like living on the other side of the country?"
"I belong with you, remember? I'll be happy wherever you take me."
"In that case, I'm taking you to bed."
"That's a wonderful idea. But shouldn't you start packing?"
"I don't have to be there tomorrow Annie."
"Yes, but I shouldn't be flying much longer."
"What on earth are you talking about?"
"That's what I came to tell you…"
"What?" He stared at her, but couldn't figure out for the life of him what she was going on about. She took his hand and placed it over her stomach. He looked down, then his eyes widened and his gaze shot back up to her face. "Is it mine? Oh god, that was horrible! I'm sorry!" He closed his eyes, waiting for her to yell at him, to hit him or to stand up, shove him out of the way and walk out. All he heard was a snort and a giggle. He opened his eyes to find a rueful grin on her lips.
"No, I wouldn't expect you not to wonder. Jeff and I hadn't done anything since late February and I'm only two months along. So yes, it's yours. How do you feel about this new information Joffrey?"
He said nothing for a moment. Then he kneeled in front of her. "Are you happy with it?"
"I'm scared, but yes. I'm very happy."
He smiled and scooped her up in his arms. He started toward the bedroom. But she stopped him. "J, what are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking that I'm taking the woman I love into the bedroom. Then I'm going to pack up everything I can into boxes. After that I'll come back to the bedroom and ravish you until we're both too tired. In the morning we'll go over to your place and pack up everything you own. We'll call some movers and have them load all our stuff and start out to Anaheim. We'll get on a flight no later than Saturday…"
"All my stuff is packed already. You can pack later since most of this isn't yours. Let's just go do the ravishing part babe." She was smiling up at him again and he resumed walking toward the bedroom.
"Why is all your stuff packed? That sure that I love you?"
"Well, actually… My lease was up and I was going to move back to my parents for awhile. Then I found out about the baby and I had to come tell you. I didn't know how you felt, but once you said you loved me… I knew that everything would be fine. Oh, and I love you."
Joff let out a laugh. "I know that silly woman."
"I know, but I hadn't told you yet!"
