Chapter 5
On one of Jason’s Jets
“So are you
going to tell me where we are going?”
Robin asked snuggling up against Jason.
The cabin of the plane is lit with only a few lights so it is
practically dark (much to the liking of the newlyweds). Jason and Robin are seated on one of the
plush couches. They had been on the
plane for a little less then an hour.
“I guess
there is no harm in telling you now that we are on out way there. I didn’t want to tell you earlier because it
would have ruined the surprise. We’re on
our way to
“
“Yep, I
remember you talking about it once, so I thought that it would be a good idea
for part of the honeymoon. Is it alright
with you? ‘Cuse
if it isn’t we can go somewhere else.”
“No, this
is perfect.” They settle back into a
comfortable silence.
A few
minutes later the pilot comes on the intercom to inform Jason that there is an
urgent phone call from Erin Brown. Robin
looks at Jason worried and picks up the phone.
“
“Woh, one question at a time.
I’m fine, nothing’s wrong. I was
just calling you because I thought you would want to know that Brenda had her
babies.”
“She
did?” Robin said excitedly jumping up,
right into Jason’s jaw. He had been
resting his chin lightly on the top of Robin’s head for the past few minutes. Jason rubbed his jaw and looked down at
Robin.
Robin could barley contain a giggle after seeing the look on Jason’s
face. It was a mix of shock and pain. It wasn’t major pain, but just enough to be
annoying.
“Oh, nothing. I was talking to Nik. He’s staying
with me for a little bit. Don’t ask,
it’s a long story and I’ll tell it to you when you get back.”
“Boy or
girl?” Robin asked.
“What?”
“Brenda’s
baby; was it a boy or girl?” Robin repeated.
“Oh, both,
she was having twins, remember. They
named the boy Joseph Stone Jax. Stone for short. And she named the girl Lilly. Isn’t that the most beautiful name?”
It took a
moment for the name to register for Robin.
It wasn’t that she had forgotten the name; she just never thought that
Brenda would name one of her kids after Stone.
Robin’s eyes began to gather tears and Jason looked at her for and
explanation. Robin smiled to reassure
him that she was okay. “Is she naming
him after that guy in the picture that you showed me a wile ago?”
“Yah, she
probably is.”
“Oh
okay. Well I just thought you would want
to know. I gotta
get going. Call me later okay?”
“Sure thing. Thank you for calling. Give my love to Brenda, Jax,
Lilly, and Stone.” Robin choked on the
last name.
“What was
that all about?” Jason asked rubbing her
arm.
“Brenda had
her babies.” Robin’s eyes were brimming
over with tears. “She named the girl
Lilly and the boy…” Robin paused to regain her composure. “She named him Joseph Stone. But she’s going to call him by Stone. Some times I forget how much of an impact
Stone had on people, then bam! Someone
else pops up and does something in his name.”
Tears were now spilling down her cheeks.
“Stone
affected everyone’s lives. Hey, even I
am owe a lot of my happiness to him,” Robin looked at Jason; not quite
understanding what he meant. Jason took
her into his arms and explained. “If it
hadn’t of been for Stone, I might never have met you. And you are the only thing in my life that
really makes me happy.”
Robin
called Brenda to see how she and the twins were doing. Brenda was exosted
so they didn’t talk much, but Brenda was happy to hear from her.
Outside Luke’s
Liz and
Lucky walked up to the door and paused.
“Is it just me or dose it seem that we just did
this?” Lucky joked.
“Telling
your folks was the easy part, now we have to sit through a celebration party,
this is only the beginning.” Liz
retorted.
“Your right about that. This is only the
beginning.” Lucky kissed Liz sweetly on
the lips and they entered the club.
3 hours later
Liz flopped
down on her bed and sighed. “Remind me
when we have kids, never to through an engagement party. Okay?”
“What you
didn’t like the party?” Lucky teased,
falling down next to her.
“No, I
loved it. What I meant is that I want
your folks to handle all the parties. I
don’t think I could have come up with half the stuff they did.” Liz grabbed a pillow and curled up in the
middle of the bed looking at Lucky. The
room grew silent for a few minutes.
“Okay what
are you thinking?” Lucky asked breaking
the silence.
“How did
you know I was thinking anything?”
“You get
this funny far off look on your face when ever you begin to think really
heavily. Plus I saw the smoke coming out
your ears.” Lucky teased.
“Oh is that
so? If we were in a cartoon and you got
and idea, there would be a candle above your head instead of a light
bulb.” Liz shot back playfully.
“Oh is that
so?”
“Yes it is.”
“Well then
I don’t think I would be smart enough to think of this.” Lucky grabbed a pillow and hit Liz playfully.
“Oh, so
that’s how you want to play?” Liz grabbed her pillow and hit Lucky back. Within minutes the two were fully engrossed
in an all out pillow fight.
Lucky
landed a blow right in Liz’s stomach causing her to turn around to protect
herself, then he hit her in the back causing her to
fall down onto the bed once again. Lucky
pined her wrists above her head. “You know I could get used to this.” Liz said seductively.
“So could
I, babe, so could I.” Lucky lowered his
lips down to her and kissed her passionately.
Lucky fell on top of her, their kiss intensifying. They drank form each other’s lips as if they
hadn’t kissed in years.
Liz sighed
and pulled Lucky down next to her and rested her head on his chest. “Just think, one of these days you won’t have
to go home by one every night.”
Lucky
laughed at the memory of Rubby having ‘the talk’ with
both of them. She had knocked on the
door one morning when she had noticed that Lucky’s
car was still parked outside. They had
fallen asleep watching a movie and by the time they had woken up, Liz told him
that it was to late for him to drive home and he had just stayed the night on
her couch.
