Chapter 3

"Well, tonight's our last night," Brian said sadly on the last night of their honeymoon. They were in Venice, Italy. The next day, they would fly home.

"Well, then I say we make this night count," Alexa said, smiling at him seductively.

Brian was surprised, but happy. "You wanna?" he asked, grinning at her.

"I want to if you do," she said.

"I do," Brian said. He took her hand and led her into the bedroom of their luxurious hotel suite.

When Alexa woke up the next morning, she found herself cuddled up in Brian's arms. She looked at his adorable sleeping face and felt completely content. The night before had been wonderful.

Brian and Alexa had been talking about their future together throughout the whole honeymoon. Alexa had told him that she wanted children. Brian had also wanted children. Ever since he had gone through the whole transplant process the year before, he had realized that life was too short to waste. He had told Alexa that he wanted to have kids soon, if she wanted to. She had agreed, and so, that night, they had decided to lose their virginity to each other without using protection. Alexa had no regrets about their decision. The thought of being pregnant with Brian's baby made her swell with happiness.

Brian stirred. Alexa kissed his lips softly and his eyelids fluttered open. He smiled at Alexa.

"Morning, baby," he said, kissing the top of her head.

"Hey, sweetie," she said, twirling a lock of his slightly curly hair around her finger. He smiled.

"What time is it?" he asked. Alexa glanced at the clock.

"Almost ten," she replied.

"We have to catch our flight at noon," he said. "We'd better get up and start getting ready."

"Okay. I'm gonna take a shower," Alexa said.

"Can I come too?" Brian asked.

"Bri!" she said, grinning at him.

"Please?" he begged, giving her his adorable puppy face. She smiled.

"Well, I guess so," she said. He broke into a grin. Then they walked into the bathroom together.

Half an hour later, they were out of the shower and getting dressed. They had packed the night before, so all they had to do was get ready to go to the airport.

The flight home was a long one. Brian and Alexa just wanted to get home as soon as possible.

Finally, hours later, their last flight landed at the Orlando airport. When Brian and Alexa got off the plane, Kevin was there waiting for them. He had offered to pick them up.

They greeted him happily and went to pick up their luggage. Once they had their luggage, they lugged it out to Kevin's car and headed home. Alexa had hired movers to move all of her things to Brian's house. Now it was all there, packed in boxes on the floor. She and Brian spent the rest of the day unpacking and re-arranging things. They went to bed early that night, completely exhausted.
