| �I like that one,� Sunshine said as they listened to a couple of the songs the guys already recorded. �It�s very sweet and romantic.� �Nicky wrote it,� Howard stated. Sunshine looked at Nickolas as he sat next to her and kissed her forehead. He put his arm around her as she said, �You wrote it. How sweet.� �And I had this very sexy woman for my inspiration,� Nickolas replied as Sunshine smiled and he kissed her. �I love you,� Sunshine said and Nickolas smiled. �I love you too,� Alexander snickered. �She was talking to me,� Nickolas said. �Calm down, Baby,� Sunshine said patting his leg. �Of course I was talking to you.� She gave him a reassuring grin then a quick kiss. �Ya know I love ya.� �And I love you,� Nickolas said giving her another kiss as the others looked at each other. �You two are constantly kissing,� Kevin said. �Why?� �Nick�s a great kisser and I love kissing him,� Sunshine replied. �If you kissed him then you�d understand.� She smiled. �I don�t plan on kissing him anytime soon,� Kevin stated and they all laughed. �Thank God,� Nickolas said letting out a relieved sigh. �I�d probably have to kick your ass if ya did.� �Try it,� Kevin said. �Not in front of the lady,� Nickolas said. �Go for it,� Sunshine replied. �I�d love to see you try and kick Kev�s ass. Who knows? Maybe it�ll turn me on.� Nickolas looked at her as she smiled and winked. �You�re bad,� Nickolas said and Sunshine continued smiling. �I�d love to see you and Des get into it again,� Alexander said. �It was hot when ya did.� Nickolas glared at him. �I still got that first fight on DVD that D gave me and I watch it constantly. If ya pause it just right ya can see some boobies.� �Not in front of my husband,� Sunshine smirked and Nickolas shook his head. �And you wonder why I get angry,� Nickolas said. �What�s to be angry about?� Sunshine questioned. �I�m just having fun.� He just looked at her. �You�re such a sourpuss, Carter.� �Well I don�t like you flirting with my friends.� �I�m not flirting. I�m having fun. Something you have forgotten apparently.� �I did not forget how to have fun.� �Whatever.� She rolled her eyes. �I just don�t like the way you act with my friends�my brothers.� �Anyone have popcorn?� Alexander asked snickering and Kevin hit him. �And I don�t like the way you act with Drake,� Sunshine rebutted. �One of my best friends and your brother�s girlfriend.� �I�m just having fun,� Nickolas said. �Don�t give me that shit, because I don�t want to hear it.� �And why not?� �The same reason you don�t want to.� She got up and walked to the door. �Now where are you going?� �Back to the hotel.� She walked out and Nickolas ran after her. �You�re not going anywhere, Sweets.� He grabbed her before she got on the elevator. �I�m not leaving you alone again.� �I can take care of myself, Nick.� He looked at her and pointed to his eye. �It�s nothing.� He continued looking at her then tickled her. �Ow! Stop it!� She pushed his hand away. �I rest my case, Sunnie. It could happen again and next time it could be worse. If you got hurt worse I wouldn�t be able to forgive myself if I wasn�t around to help you.� She just looked at him. �I�m being serious. I ain�t leaving you alone again. At least while we�re here in Germany.� She sighed. �I love you too much to let anything happen to you. As long as there is something I can do I�m going to do it.� �By not letting me do anything? I�m a grown woman with lots of money that I don�t know what to do with. We�re also having two babies and I want to go shopping.� �And we�ll go shopping when I�m done.� �That�ll be after all the stores are closed.� �No it won�t� �You can�t treat me like a prisoner, Nickolas. I am your wife and I should be treated that way.� �Fine; if you want to go shopping or to the hotel or whatever then go. I�m not going to continue arguing with you about it.� He walked away and Sunshine looked at him. �Nickolas Gene Carter.� She watched as he stopped, but didn�t look at her. �Will you get that stick out of your ass and get over here. Please.� She waited a moment and Nickolas walked back over to her. �I love you, Baby, and I love the fact that you care so much about me and want me around all the time. But I also have to live my life just like you�re living yours. You�re doing the music thing during the day and I need something to do until you get back.� �Could you wait a day or two at least?� She just looked at him. �For me.� She continued looking at him. �Please, Sweets. You were attacked this morning and I�m not over it yet. I�m just afraid it�ll happen again.� �I�ll take one of your bodyguards with me.� He didn�t say anything and they just looked at each other a moment. Sunshine sighed and smiled. �Alright. I�ll wait a day or two just because I love you and don�t want you to worry about me while you�re working.� He grinned and kissed her. �Thank you and tonight I promise to make it up to you.� He smiled and kissed her again. �I�d give ya a sample now, but I got work to do.� �I can just think about it and get myself all hot for tonight.� She kissed him and grabbed his crotch. �Oh fuck, Sweets.� He pushed himself against her hand. She smiled and put her mouth against Nickolas� ear and whispered, �Just think that this could be my mouth.� She put her tongue in his ear then gently bit it. �Or it could even be something better that you love.� �Oh fuck.� He moaned and she smiled as she squeezed him hard and started moving her hand. �Do ya like that, Baby?� �Uh�yeah.� She kissed him and left him go. �Why�d ya stop?� �Yo, Nick, we�re ready,� Brian interrupted and that was enough for Nickolas to lose his excitement. �I�ll be there in a second,� Nickolas said not taking his gaze off his wife. �Alright,� Brian said. �You�re going to get it tonight,� Nickolas whispered and Sunshine only smiled. �I�m being serious.� �I know,� Sunshine said. �And I can�t wait.� She continued smiling and walked from him. Nickolas smiled while shaking his head and followed behind her. They walked back into the room and Alexander said, �It�s about time.� �Did you two straighten everything out?� Kevin asked concerned and they both nodded. �Good.� �Give us another five minutes or so fellas,� the producer said. �We�re really sorry but we�re in the middle of an important call.� �Take your time,� Brian said and the producer walked out. �So, Alex,� Sunshine began, �what names do you and Des have picked out?� �Keely Shaye for a girl and Braxton Alexander for a boy,� Alexander replied and Sunshine looked at him. �What?� �Braxton, huh? Interesting.� �Why?� �Des hated that name. Plus Braxton Alexander is the name of someone we all disliked, but probably not as much as me.� �Why?� Nickolas asked. �He went to school with us and he had this huge crush on me. He was a total pain in the ass and annoyed the hell out of me. There were times I believe he was obsessed with me, because he would just sit and stare at me and follow me around all the time.� �Awe, my poor baby,� Nickolas said putting his arms around her. �I was so glad when school ended, because Braxton went off to the military and I never saw him again thankfully. If I ever see him again it�ll be too soon.� �I�m sure it was just a harmless crush,� Kevin said. �Just like what Brad has.� �Don�t mention him.� She felt Nickolas� anger in his hold and she sighed. �He followed us here,� Nickolas said. �He�s even at the same hotel.� �I highly doubt he followed,� Kevin said. �There�s probably something important here he came for.� �Yeah Sunnie. My wife. I think he forgets that major detail. He�s always after her and waiting for that perfect opportunity to get into her pants.� Sunshine sighed and shook her head. �This is why you do not mention Brad Fischetti when my husband�s around,� Sunshine pointed out. �He goes off the deep end.� �I do not. But I�m glad you remember we�re married.� She elbowed him. �Oiy!� �So do you two have names picked out?� Howard asked changing the subject. �Not really,� Sunshine said. �We just know that our first boy, if we have one, is going to be named after his daddy.� She smiled. �She insists,� Nickolas stated. �And I ain�t going to argue.� �We�re going to pick out two of each in case the twins are the same sex.� They nodded. �I think Nicky�s got a thing about becoming a daddy.� They all looked at him. �What? I just thought it�d be the two of us for a couple years�maybe five.� They laughed. �I�m being serious, but I�m thrilled Dani�s helping us out and giving us the babies we want that we can�t have right now.� He smiled. �Plus Sunnie doesn�t want a baby after thirty.� She elbowed him again. �Oiy!� �Did I not say that we can try having one ourselves once everything was cool with me? And after the babies were a year or so.� He nodded. �Alright then.� A cell rang and they all got there�s out. �It�s me,� Brian said getting up. �Excuse me.� He walked out and the others looked at each other.
