Marshal Hazer's P.O.V~
It's April sixth. Alex and I had our four month ultrasound check up four days ago. Our baby is getting so big, but she had barely been showing. It makes me sad actually, because I really want to be able to see my baby there. I laid there thinking about that for a while, looking up at my ceiling. Alex was taking a bath upstairs in the master guest bedroom's bathroom. It was a Saturday morning and I didn't know what to do today. I think we should start making and figuring out plans about the rooms situation. Alex has tried talking to me about it before, but it felt to soon to be doing all of that stuff, besides I don't want to start making the baby's room until we know what it is, but I suppose we could start doing some stuff. I must have laid there thinking for about forty minutes or so before she came walking into my room, and crawled across the bed to me, kind of laying on me kissing me softly.
“Mmmm...daddy likie.” I told her, she laughed loudly.
“Oh yeah?” she said back to me sweetly.
“Mhmm.” I replied, and she came in kissing me some more. After about fifteen minutes she was cuddled up to me, wrapped in my arms, wearing nothing but the towel she had come in the room in. She hadn't bothered getting dressed yet, but I didn't mind.
“Okay, so I do think that we need to start figuring out the rooms situation.” I told her.
“Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.” she replied back. Her arm was wrapped around my stomach, and her head on my chest.
“What are you thinking about it?”
“Well I think that we should just leave everything the same. I mean I've gotten used to the way that the rooms are all set up right now.”
“Yeah, I think that my dad's old room should be the baby's room. I don't know, to me it's like, we've been storing all of the stuff that we've got for the baby in there up until this point, it just feels like that's the way it should be.” I said to her.
“I agree. I like things the way we have it.”
“Well I want to paint the baby's room, but since we wont know what color to paint it until we know what gender the baby is, we have to wait until next month to get the paint and stuff, but I was thinking that maybe today if you wanted too, we could go furniture shopping. We could get a little dresser, and a changing table, and a rocking chair if you want one.”
“Oh, I would love a rocking chair, but can we get one of those one's with the little like Ottoman thing that I can put my feet up on?” she asked sweetly.
“We can get whatever you want babe.” I told her kissing the top of her head softly.
“Great. I think that will be nice to have. And I think we should get a little bookshelf or something that we could put his or her stuffed animals on, and a toy chest would be good too.” she listed.
“Probably. It sounds like a plan to me.” I said.
“But that's going to be so expensive. How much money do we have to spend?” It's cute how she worries about money, but she shouldn't, my dad's a multi billionaire, so we have plenty of it.
“We have my dad's credit card so we're covered.” I told her.
“Are you sure he doesn't mind?” you can tell that she feels bad about it.
“Yes baby. He really doesn't mind. He earns money as much as he breaths so it's not a big deal.” I told her.
“Okay.” she said shyly. She's so cute, I think Alexa will make a great mom.

Alexa Tenner's P.O.V~
So today, Marshal said that we're going to go shopping for the baby's stuff. I wish we knew what it was so that we could know what color to buy things in, but it's okay I guess. I'm still not really showing much, which is fine with me, I mean I don't get much crap at school about me being pregnant since they can't tell. Most of them have forgot all about my sudden outburst last month in art class. They stared and whispered for a couple of days but Ang was right...then they found something else to talk about. I hate high school. I got up and got dressed after lying on the bed with Marshal for like a half an hour if not longer, and he got into the shower. I walked into the bathroom to wash my face and stuff, and I'm actually really excited about shopping for the baby's stuff.
“Hey Ali?” he said from the shower.
“Hey what?” I giggled.
“Come here.” he told me.
“You better not get me all wet Marshal, I just put these clothes on.”
“I wont, just come here.” he told me.
“Okay.” I replied walking over to the shower and he opened the shower door, then leaned in and kissed me. “What was that for?” I giggled out.
“I love you.” he said with a smile. “Oh, and one more thing,” he started to say bending down and pulling up my shirt a little, and kissed my stomach softly. “I love you too little one.”
“We love you too Marshal.” I wrapped my arms around him as he stood back up.
“I thought you didn't want to get your clothes wet.” he laughed at me.
“Screw it, I don't care.” I replied and he picked me up with one of his arms just on my lower back, and closed the shower door with the other. I giggled. The shower water was falling on us almost like rain and he spun me around, still holding me. Kissing my lips softly under the sprinkling water.
“I love you so much Marshal.” I stated to him.
“I love you too Alex. You and this baby are my everything. I wouldn't ask for anything else then you two.” he stated back to me.
“Really? Nothing?” I asked him.
“Ali, you two really are the best thing that ever happened to me. I had a crush on you from the minute I first saw you, and I never thought that you would want to be someone like me.”
“Someone like you? What do you mean?”
“I mean, I was just this white boy from Detroit, who never really talked much and watched you from a safe distance. I thought that I would just spend my time waiting and never getting. I thought that I would sit back and hope that one day you'd notice me, and like me back, but then I just thought that I'd never get that chance. That that would never happen. And then that party came, and we had sex, and I thought that maybe you would notice me more after that, but you didn't really. And then you told me the news of the baby, and my heart completely filled with joy and warmth that nothing could take from me, and nothing could replace. When you got snowed in here for those days, I was so happy, because I wanted to know you more, so much, and that was just the kind of chance I was waiting for. Alex...back in Detroit I had nothing. My mom and I fought all the time, and I had my “Friends” I guess, but were they really friends? I moved out here and not a single one of them has tried to contact me, or probably even noticed that I was gone. We fought daily with the kind of guys you saw, and everyday I wondered if that would be my last day. If I would walk down the street and get shot and killed then and there. I had nothing there. And here I have a nice house, and a great dad that I don't fight with and I know cares, but that can't even come close to the happiness and love that I have for you and this baby. I wouldn't change anything. Not one thing. Because I've told you before, and I'll continue to tell you a million times, that I love you Alexa. I don't ever want to loose you, and though you yell at me sometimes, and we fight, that doesn't mean that I would ever want to leave. We'll fight, and things will be hard at times, but we just have to keep fighting our way through the rough spots. And I wont ever stop trying to prove my love and commitment to you. With my last words, on my death bed, I'm going to tell you that I love you, and kiss you one last time with the last bit of strength I have.” he said. “I wont ever let go of you Alexa, and I hope that you don't let go of me, because I can tell you here and now. I've had flings before. Who hasn't? But they didn't mean to me what you do. You were my first. I lost my virginity to you, and I swear on my life, no matter how hard things get, you will be my only. Because I don't want anybody, or anything else besides you and the baby. You two are the most precious things that God has ever given me, and with that I give thanks.” I could tell that he was crying. “I never in my wildest dreams back in Detroit would have thought that I would be having a baby with this sweet, beautiful, loving, caring, wonderful girl. I never even thought that I could meet someone like that, and hold on to them, let alone be dating them and have a baby on the way. That's just a miracle if you ask me.” he finished.
“Marshal. Please, don't cry...I'm crying enough for the both of us. I love you so much, and I have no idea where to start. I used to be this shy type of girl. That's why Angel is the only friend I have at school. It's because I never wanted to talk to anyone else. And honestly, after I found out I was pregnant I never would have thought that things would have gone the way they did. I didn't think that you would want to be apart of the baby's life, or birth, or even around for the pregnancy, but you proved me wrong. So wrong. I never thought that you cared about me that much. I thought that you were some guy who I lost my virginity too and wouldn't remember me after that. I really thought that you had forgotten all about me, and that I would sound completely off my rocker telling you that I was pregnant. I'm so sorry I never talked to you after we had sex until I told you about the baby. I just thought that I was one of those “flings,” those “one night stands” and I didn't want to bother you with none-sense.” I said.
“It doesn't matter now Ali. What matters now is this baby, and that you're here in my arms now, and that's all I can ask for.” he told me smiling. I was drenched from head to toe. I defiantly am not going to be able to wear this out.
“I'm here now and forever Marshal Hazer. Nobody can take that from us.” I said back strongly. He just pulled me in for a close hug, and you could tell he was crying, but so was I. I found the man of my dreams, and to me, I judged a really good book by the cover, but let me tell you. It's the best damn book I've ever known.
