�I love you too Squeaky.�  AJ gently put his lips on hers.  Shannon wrapped his arms around his neck, making AJ�s lips crush hers.  She slowly traced his lips with her tongue, telling her to let her in.  He did and the kiss exploded.  AJ picked Shannon up and Shannon wrapped her legs around his waist.  She finally pulled away and gazed into his eyes.  She smiled and he took her to the dressing room, locking the door behind them.

�Hey D.�
�Hey Resa.  Want to go into a room?�
�Yeah.�  We quickly went into one of the dressing rooms.  I sat down on the couch and Howie followed me.  He took my hand in his and lightly kissed it.  I took his hand and placed it on my stomach.  �This is our kid D.  I decided I didn�t want to know the sex.  Do you mind?�
�No, I don�t.  I didn�t want to know either.�
�D, I love you.  Nothing changed that.  BUT, when you didn�t trust me, you will never know what the felt like.�
�It was something stupid on my part, and I�m very sorry.  I lost my best friend, my lover and the woman who has my heart.�
�Well, that makes me happy.  I love you, and I want you back, but, I want a promise you�ll trust me.�
�Oh Lord baby, I�ll trust you.  I guess I was scared.  I didn�t want to lose you to AJ, it�s happened before.�
�God D.  I wouldn�t go out with AJ.  You�re the only one who has my heart.�
�I realize that now.  But, it�s in the past, and I want us to forget about it.  You�re with us now and so is our little one.�  He pressed his head against my stomach, smiling.  He lifted my shirt up and placed soft kisses on my stomach.  I smiled at him as he started singing.  �So, I�m finally going to be a daddy huh?  I like that idea.�
�Yes, D, you will.  �Course, you�re the one going to be up at two changing and feeding it.�
�Hey now.�
�I�m just kidding babe.  I love you.�
�I love you too,� he said, slowly kissing my lips.  I pulled away as the door opened.
�Hey you two,� Nick said.
�Come on in Nick,� I said.  I got up and gave him a hug.  �Missed ya.�
�We missed you too,� Kevin said from behind him.  I gave Kevin a hug as well.  I pulled away and looked behind him.
�Thanks for everything Bri Bear.�
�No problem,� he said, wrapping his arms around me.  I let go and walked back over to D.  He embraced me from behind, putting his head on my shoulder.  A few moments later, AJ and Shannon walked in.
�Nice of you two to join us,� I said, rubbing my stomach.
�I want to feel,� Shannon said, running up to my stomach.  �I still can�t believe you�re going to be a mommy.�
�A mother who just got two more tattoos.�
�For real?� AJ asked me.  I nodded my head.  �You go girl.�
�And I can�t wait to see them,� Howie whispered in my ear.  I turned around and smiled at him.
�So tell me, how did this happen?�
�How did what happen?�
�This whole Cindy thing?  Did she ever try to claim you or make a pass at you?�
�Yeah, she did.  She was just as bad as Sammie on AJ,� Shannon said.  I turned to look at her.
�Well, then this bitch just got a plan.  What do you say?�
�I�m game.�
�Than follow me Mrs. Shannon.�

The following day I walked down to Cindy and Sammie�s room.  After a few knocks they opened the door, surprised to find me and Shannon there.
�Sorry to bother you guys, but, the Boys wanted to know if you wanted to go to the club tonight,� Shannon said.
�Especially AJ and Howie,� I finished.  They glanced at each other and smiled.
�We�ll be there,� Cindy said.  We nodded our heads and turned to leave.  �Wait, Theresa, no heart feelings right?  I don�t want you pissed just cause I stole your man.�
�First of all Cindy, you didn�t steal him.  We broke up.  Major difference.  And second of all, don�t be so damn fuckin� cocky.  You never know what shit might happen.�  I turned around and walked away with Shannon again.

At 8:00, I heard Shannon and AJ walk into mine and D�s room. 
�Are you guys ready?� AJ asked.  I looked at Howie and he nodded his head.  He grabbed my hand and we left the room.  We met the other guys and got into the limo.
�Whatever goes on, I love you,� Howie said in my ear.  I turned and looked at him.
�I know.  I love you too.�  I gave hi a quick kiss as we stepped out of the limo.  As we stepped into the club, I saw Cindy and Sammie sitting at one of the tables.  �May we talk to you?� I asked the girls.  They just looked at us but nodded their heads.  I looked over at D and we went to talk to DJ.  Within the few opening chords, I smiled.  �Now listen here; you will never, EVER, have AJ or Howie.�
�The reason being, is because they�re ours,� Shannon said.
�And if you have a problem with that ��
Where my girls at?
From the front to the back
When�s your feeling that
I�ll put one hand back
Can you repeat that?
Try to take my man
See, I don�t need that
So, so don�t play yourself � (702, Where My Girl�s At)
�Any questions?� both Shannon and I asked at the same time.  They just looked at us, glanced at AJ and D, and left.
�Oh well,� Shannon said.  I just nodded my head.  �Anyway, let�s dance,� Shannon said, grabbing AJ�s hand right as 98*, �Do You Wanna Dance�, came on.  I stood back and looked at Howie.  I watched as AJ�s and Shannon�s bodies swayed together, a tad bit too sexually.
�Come on babe, we can do better than that.�  He quickly agreed and we went onto the dance floor.
� Baby, I gotta ask you
Do you wanna dance
Because I�m in the mood
I�ve been watching from across the room
The way you�re moving
I could get into you �
