Forever and Always

Chapter 12

She woke the next morning reaching for Ronnie. She opened her eyes and looked around when she felt he wasn't in bed with her. She sat up and smiled when she heard him and Joey laughing in his room. She threw off the blankets, she got dressed in one of his shirts and made her way to them.

She stood by the door and laughed as she saw Ronnie pinning Joey to the floor and tickling him and Joey screeching with laughter. "Daddy! Stop!" He screamed as he laughed at the same time. Joey spotted her at the door. "Mommy! Help me!"

She pushed herself away from the door but as she got closer, Ronnie grabbed her and pulled her down as he gave her the same treatment. "Joey, help me get mommy!" Joey giggled and helped Ronnie with his mission.

"No, no!! Ronnie, stop!!" She screamed trying to push him off of her. He stopped and leaned down and kissed her lips lightly.

"That's not what you were saying last night." He whispered in her ear as he helped her up, wrapping her tightly in his arms. She pushed him away and playfully slapped his arm as she walked out of the room. He followed her into his room and saw her picking up her clothes. "The rest of them are in my office." He smirked at her as she started walking past him. He caught her arm and pulled her against him. "Do you have any idea how hot you look in my shirt?" He kissed her then, forcing her mouth open as his tongue danced with hers. By the time he was done, she was clinging to him, her breathing raspy. "I love what I can do to you." She rolled her eyes and walked around him.

Ally walked downstairs into his office, picking up the clothes as she went along. She turned and jumped when she saw him standing behind her. "Don't sneak up on me like that! I have to get ready and go." He groaned as he looked at her.

"Why? I want you to stay, baby." She walked up to him and kissed his neck.

"I'm coming back. I just need some clothes and so does Joey." She laughed when she saw him visibly relax.

"You know, if you don't want to move in here right now, you should at least bring clothes for you guys to leave here. That way you have some when you stay. I'm thinking you'll be staying a lot." She nodded.

"I think I can do that. Give it a couple months, baby. If all is going well, I'll move in." He smiled and pecked her lips lightly, turning away only when he heard Joey calling for him.

"I can do that, Ally. I'd wait forever if I had too." She opened her mouth to speak, but he walked away before she could say anything.

They ate breakfast that Ronnie and Joey made before they got ready and headed to her house to grab some clothes and other stuff they might need for the weekend. Ronnie pulled into her driveway and saw Max sitting on her porch.

"Uncle Max!!" Joey screamed happily as he tried to get out of his car seat. Ally looked at Ronnie as he frowned.

"What's he doing here?" Ally shrugged her shoulders as she climbed out of the car, turning to help Joey out. Joey ran to Max, laughing as Max lifted him up and swung him around like he always did.

She walked up slowly, afraid of having another fight with him and already knowing Ronnie was not happy about Max being there. Max looked at Ally and smiled at her.

"Hey, Al." He put Joey down and walked to her, giving her a quick hug and noticing Ronnie there, looking pissed. He looked back to Ally. "Listen, I'm sorry about that day. I just worry about you, you know. I don't want anything to make you unhappy, or anyone." He looked over her shoulder at Ronnie again.

"I understand, Max, but you have to trust me. I'm in love with him, I want to be with him, and I want Joey to know him." He nodded as he set Joey down.
