Chapter Fifty

Ashley's POV~

I helped Joey pack late that next night. He promised Kane that we'd be there, and be there for church on Sunday.

I was excited honestly, I was ready to be back in God's house.

"Babe, you ready?" Joey asked.

"Yeah." I nodded, zipping my bag.

~*~*~

That next morning, Joey and I were heading to church, with Kane tagging along.

"So, how was y'alls weekend?" Kane asked as we walked into Crosspoint.

"Amazing." I smiled.

"Well needed." Joey joked.

Joey laced our fingers as we walked to our normal seating. Donald meeting us there. "Hey, bro, Ashley." Donald grinned.

"Hey," Joey replied, hugging his brother.

Donald smiled at me as he and Joey pulled back from their hug. "Wow, look at you!"

I smiled back and looked down at my pregnant belly. "I know. I feel huge."

"You look good for a pregnant woman." He complements.

"Hey, bro. That's my wife." Joey joked.

"Thank you, Donnie." I laugh.

"Well, Caleb and Kels are on their way, then once service starts, we have to head up." Donald informed his brother.

"Alright, that's fine." Joey nods.

"You'll do great baby," I smiled.

"Always for you." He grins, kissing my cheek.

"Guys, we're in public." Donnie teases.

"I will kiss my wife on the cheek if I want too." Joey stated.

"Joey, babe, it's fine." I snicker.

"I love you," he whispered.

"I love you too." I smiled.

"Hey, guys." I heard Kelsey say. I turned around was met with my pregnant friend.

"Hey Kels, Caleb." I greeted.

"So, I heard you went on a romantic weekend trip." She smirked.

"I did." I nodded.

"How was it?" She asked eagerly.

"Amazing." I answered. Kelsey turned to Caleb with a pleading look.

"Please, Caleb." Kelsey begged.

"I don't know, possibly, babe." Caleb answered.

"So, how's the little one doing?" I ask.

"Good. As of right now, according to the heart beat, it's a girl." Kels smiled.

"Yeah, but you can't always rely on that. If so, then Arlo should be a girl too." I laughed.

"I hope it's a girl." She shrugged.

"You've still got about 10 weeks until you know for sure." I smiled.

"What was it like when you were told that you're having a boy?" She asked.

"Amazing. Like nothing else mattered, and that I was going to be a mommy to a beautiful little boy." I grinned.

"You're going to be a great mother." Kelsey complemented.

"Thank you, and so will you." I nodded.

A friend of mine came up to me. She smiled as she saw me, "Ashley!"
