Chapter 29, Surprise

December 28th, 2008

Cassidy's POV

    "Mommy! Mommy! Wake up!" I feel Jack shaking me, and I groan. I'm too tired to move at the moment. "You're going to be late for girl's day."

    I instantly wake up, and I look over at Jack. "Good morning. Where's your dad?" I ask, as I realize I'm in Aaron's room.

    "He's cooking. Daddy told me to get you up because Aunt JJ, Aunt Emily, and Aunt Penelope will be here soon!" Jack says, and I sit up. Jack crawls onto my lap.

    "Well thank you for waking me up Buddy. Now go tell Daddy I'm up. Mommy will be down soon." I say, kissing his forehead. Jack gets down, and bolts out of the room.

    I get out of bed and quickly get ready. I brush through my hair, throwing it up into a ponytail. I get dressed thinking about how I've practically moved into Aaron's room. I have about half my clothes in his room, and Aaron's given me half of his dresser and closet.

We still haven't labeled what we are. We act like we are dating, but without the label of being boyfriend/girlfriend. I hear footprints and I turn toward the door as I put on makeup in front of the dresser mirror. "Cassie Mae, your breakfast is getting cold." Aaron says, walking into the room.

"Just a moment." I say, turning back to finish my makeup. Aaron walks up behind me, watching me intently.

"You look beautiful." He whispers from behind, and I smile.

I turn around and drape my arms over his shoulders. "Thank you, handsome." I say, looking into his eyes.

"Move in here, with me. Move into my room. You have most of your clothes in here. We sleep in the same bed every night no matter what. We can turn your room into a guest room." Aaron says, nonchalantly.

"Okay." I whisper, moving onto my tiptoes to kiss his lips.

The kiss was short and sweet. "Okay?" Aaron repeats me, as we pull away.

"Yeah, okay. I'll move into your room. I can't sleep without you, and it's silly for me to have my own room when over half my things are in here. This house is getting too big for the three of us." I say, knowing that we will only be using two of four bedrooms.

"I think it's the perfect size. Now, let's get downstairs. Your food is probably ice cold now." He replies, and I nod. Aaron takes my hand, and I follow him downstairs.

Once we got into the kitchen, I grabbed my plate of food and ate it quickly. Just as I finish my food, the girls knock on the door. "I'll get it Babe." I hear Aaron say, and I almost choke on nothing.

"Okay." I say, as he can't see the shock on my face. He's never called me Babe. We have been acting like a married couple with a child for almost two months.
