Goodbye's Filled With Tears.

"I'll just have a water," I say to the waiter and he nods. My family has a private booth since a lot of people booked a seat in the place because they know that Mike and I are here,

"Same with me," Michael replies and he places a hand on my thigh and strums his thumb up and down,

It turns out Linda's mom didn't come either and I'm happy that she didn't.

"Shayla and I have an announcement," Lucifer clears his throat and I prepare myself,

"We're engaged," Shayla cuts in and I cup my mouth and squeak,

"Shayla is also pregnant with twins," Lucifer chirps in and I catch my breath, she told him!

"Oh my god," I rise from the chair and envelop Lucifer in a hug and I then hug Shayla,

"Congratulations," I grin and grab Shayla's hand so I see her ring,

"It's beautiful," I gasp and look around it seeing the diamonds and the beautiful band,

"Congratulations Lucifer and Shayla," Michael smiles and Lucifer bro hugs him,

"How far along?" My dad asks and I already know the answer,

"10 Weeks, Tabitha went with me to the doctors," She answers and Michael places his hand back on my thigh in its usual spot,

"So Tabitha knew all along?" Lucifer grins and Shayla nods,

"This calls for a toast!" My dad raises his glass and we follow suit,

"To my son and Shayla, I wish the best for their marriage and pregnancy," My dad says and I smile,

"To Shayla and Lucifer," We say in unison but Lucifer and Shayla don't.

~~~~~

"Goodbye, Dad," I hug him fiercely wishing I didn't have to leave but I'm busy,

"Goodbye, Darl. I'll see you soon okay?"My dad kisses my head and I feel a teardrop,

"Mhm," I whimper and Pull away and I look at Lucifer and he looks over to me, I pull him into a hug and I sniff,

"Goodbye, Lucifer," I kiss his cheek and he cups my cheek,

"Goodbye, Tabby," He smiles and wipes my tear away,

I head to Shayla and I pull her into an even bigger hug, I feel my tears dropping even though it's silly why I'm crying.

"I'll miss you, Tabitha" She whimpers and I hug her even tighter,

"I'll miss you too, you should visit me sometime and we can have a girls day," I wipe my eyes and wait at the steps of the plane with Michael and wave goodbye. I walk up the steps and blow them a kiss and enter the plane's doors followed by Michael who is holding my hand,

I sit down on the seat with a plop and Mike sits next to me and wraps an arm around my shoulder and I bury my face into him and let a tear fall,

"I'm gonna miss them," I whimper and he kisses my head,

"I know," He breathes and I feel his chest rise and fall which hums me to relax, I listen to the sound of his heartbeat and I slowly drift into a sleep...

I feel someone kiss my lips and I frown,

I open my eyes and see Michael smiling down at me, a holds out his hand and I take it, he pulls me up and we walk to the door of the step and it opens, it's still dark outside... I check my watch,

12:21 AM

I walk down the steps first and Michael follows behind me still holding my hand and I slide into the car that's waiting for us,

Michael says his address to the driver and I doze off in his arms again,

I gather my girl in my arms bridal style as I slide out the car, I notify a worker to grab the bags and two people do. I walk to the front door and I open it not needing to unlock it because my workers have stayed there to keep it safe,

I walk up the stairs and enter my bedroom, I bring her to the bathroom and sit her on a chair,

I look through the cupboards for some makeup remover my sister left here and I finally find it. I grab a cotton swab and I dampen the ball with the remover,

I lightly tip her face back and clean her makeup off to reveal the true Tabitha that hides under all that makeup. I like makeup but I love what's underneath it more and with or without makeup she is incredibly gorgeous, beautiful and sexy.

I kiss her lips and put the dirty ball in the bin and take her in my arms, I turn the bedside lamp and lay her on the bed. I grab a clean white shirt from the closet and remover Tabitha's dress and I unclip her bra and slide the shirt on her,

I untie her hair and I lightly run my fingers through it and I pull the covers back and lay her down properly in the bed and I put the covers back on her. I smile down at my girl and kiss her softly.

I walk into the closet and dress into some grey joggers and a white shirt, I brush my teeth and climb into bed. I pull her back into me and we're now spooning, I keep my hands around her waist and I close my eyes ready for sleep.

I snuggle into Michael as I wake up not wanting to get out of bed. I feel him kiss me head and I smile tightening my grip on him...

I love this man so much.
