Can I Hold You?, chapter 25
I get home from work to find Tre and Lisea canoodling on the couch. Tre's hand over Lisea's stomach as he puts his lips against her cheek.
"Good afternoon," I say as I head to me and Mike's room. Tre and Lisea took Bill and Adie's old room. I can't believe they're married now. Mike and I are moving out next week, Tre and Lisea are moving out shortly after that so our room is full of boxes of stuff we bought for the new house. Mike is out now signing the final papers.
"Is Ana here?" I hear Mike's voice say from the next room. I practically run out.
"Hey babe," I say slinging my arms around him. I go on my tip toes and kiss him affectionately.
"The house is officially ours," He says, holding up the keys and a file folder. I take the folder and look over the deed. Strange thing is, there's two.
"Why are there two deeds," I say reading them over.
"The second one is for Ella, I bought her a condo."
"A condo?" I stutter.
"One last thing for Jason," He explains, I nod. I could understand where he was coming from.
"Does she know yet?"
"Not yet, I came to see if you wanted to come with me and tell her."
"Yeah sure." I nod as I grab my purse. "Let's go."
"Yes go!" Tre yells obviously annoyed with us disturbing his 'canoodling time' with Lisea. We head out of the apartment down to Mike's pick up.
"She's going to put up a fight to accept this you know," I say holding up the deed for the condo.
"Well let her, but she's keeping the deed," Mike states as he starts up the truck. It's a short drive to Ella's parent's house and we get out of the truck. I ring the doorbell and moments later Ella comes to the door in a bathrobe with her crying son in her arms.
"Oh jeez," She says seeing us, "I look like shit."
"No you don't," I say taking my nephew from her arms. "Mike needs to talk to you." I go off down the hall to her room where a crib is set up in the corner. Baby Jason finally stops crying and I put him in the crib. I head back out to the living room where Ella is reading over the deed.
"Mike I can't accept this," She says shaking her head.
"Jason would've wanted to make sure everything was taken care after he was gone."
"I know, but-"
"He would've done the same for Mike," I say sitting down.
"But this property, a condo, it's a shitload of money!" she persists. Mike just laughs.
"Dookie went well, I can afford this, Billie chipped in too."
"Thanks," She says as she hugs both of us.

"I guess this is home," I say as Mike and I slump down on the new couch in our new house.
"Yeah," He says putting an arm around me. "A place to be as loud as we want."
"Oh yeah," I say, pulling him into a passionate kiss. "I love you Mike."
"I love you too," He says as he pulls me into a kiss and we start making out in our personal living room.
The phone rings out from the kitchen.
"Maybe we should get that." I laugh as Mike stops mid-kiss, holding himself over me.
"Yeah, yeah," He mutters as he goes over to the phone. "Hello . . .Bill, how much have you had to drink? . . .Oh man, congratulations . . .oh yeah, only getting our freak on . . .yeah, talk to you later." He hangs up the phone.
"What was that all about?" I ask giggling as he struts back to the couch.
"Adie's pregnant," He says wrapping his arms around me. I kiss his lips gently as we got back to where we left off.
After an enjoyable make out session Mike and I lay on the couch spooning for a while.
"Ana, I've been thinking about the whole kid thing."
"Yeah," I mumble as I move my head against his chest.
"Would you ever want to have kids, with me?"
"With you? Yeah, some day," I say snaking my arms around his waist, "Not right away though."
"Yeah, I would rather wait too," Mike mumbles.
"But yes, one day Mike I want to have your Dirnty, bass player babies." He just laughs.
"I love you," he says holding me close.
"Talk Dirnty to me." I laugh as I put my lips against his.
