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.
