| He stayed downstairs for a while, having a drink and catching up, before he went upstairs to check on Joey. He opened the door to find her standing in front of the window, her hands on the top of the stomach, tears slowly rolling down her face. �Honey, what�s wrong?� Dawson rushed to her side. �It�s just.......so beautiful!� she sobbed. Dawson couldn�t help but smile at her. The hormones had messed her up so much she was crying at the slightest thing. When she dropped the toothpaste lid on the bathroom floor yesterday she was near hysterical. �Oh honey,� he stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her, his hands resting on top of hers on the babies. She leaned back and closed her eyes. He looked over the creek and it was beautiful. �I think you need a nap, you had a long car journey and you are tired.� �I think you are right. But only if you join me.� She said grabbing his hand and pulling him towards the bed. The irony was because of her size they hadn�t done anything remotely sexual for weeks. They would just lay there and watch each other fall asleep. Which is what they did, one after the other, they slowly drifted off. ============================================================= �This is one of the dumbest ideas you have ever had,� �No it�s not, its genius! That way they all know at once, no sneaking about and no dramas every five seconds,� �Or it will just erupt into one big fight involving everyone we love and...� Andie�s voice tumbled into an incoherent jumble. Pacey tried not to smile but he couldn�t help it. Andie noticed and stopped to hit him in the chest. �Oww!� �This isn�t funny Pacey! I�m trying to reason with you why Christmas is not the best time to share our news!� Andie took another sip of her drink. They were sitting in a small coffee shop in Boston, having only just arrived back in the USA from their holiday. �Look just try to relax, it�s Christmas!� Pacey was wearing a Santa hat and looked terminally silly. Andie couldn�t help but giggle. �I know it is, with all the cheesy holiday music, Santa on every corner and the almost stampede of people shopping, I had kinda guessed.� She took another sip of her drink and tried to calm her racing nerves. Pacey�s hand reached across the table and stroked hers. �Our family and friends love us and they will understand. So, what�s say we got to that very expensive hotel suite we have for this evening and get some....sleep?� Pacey winked at her, causing her to giggle into her coffee. �I think sleeping could be good,� |
