Chapter 15

3 days later Eric was laying in bed one morning wondering how much longer he could go on like this. He turned the radio on and got a shower and listened closely to the lyrics of a song that come on.

"You never said, you never said, you never said that it would be this hard
Love is meant to be forever, now or never seems to discard
There's got to be a better way for me to say what's on my heart without leaving scars
So can you hear me when I call your name?

When you fall apart, am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said
With a broken heart, your walls can only go down but so low
But can you hear me when I call your name?
When I call your name

Complicated situations are the makings of all that's wrong
And I've been standing in the river of deliverance way too long
There's got to be a better way for me to say what's on my heart without leaving scars
So can you hear me when I call your name?
So can you hear me when I call your name?

When you fall apart, am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said
With a broken heart, your walls can only go down but so low
But can you hear me when I call your name?

You never said, you never said, you never said, you never said
(When I call your name)
You never said, you never said, you never said, you never said
(When I call your name)
Yeah

When you fall apart, am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said
With a broken heart, your walls can only go down but so low
But can you hear me when I call your name?"

Eric hopped out of the shower and threw his clothes on and made his way over to Natalia's moms house. As he got 10 miles out from her house his car broke down.

He layed his head back on the headrest and turned the radio to try and calm him down as he listened to a song that come on.

"Ten miles from town and I just broke down
Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone just tryin' to get home
To tell you I was wrong but you already know
Believe me I won't stop at nothin'
To see you so I've started runnin'"

Eric got out of the car and ran the rest of the 10 miles he had left as the song still played in the car.

"All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

Last time we talked, the night that I walked
Burns like an iron in the back of my mind
I must've been high to say you and I
Weren't meant to be and just wastin' my time
Oh, why did I ever doubt you?
You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one
After this time I spent alone
It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind
So I'm runnin' back to tell you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
Without you God knows what I'd do, yeah
All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughin' with you
I'm thinkin' 'bout all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through, yeah
Know there's no life after you"

Eric finally reached Natalias moms house and knocked on the door to find her mom answer.

"Eric?"

"Where's Natalia?"

"She took the kids to the zoo."

"When will she be back?"

"I'm not sure. She was taking them there and then to see a movie and get some ice cream."

"Oh, so she'll be back later then?"

"Well, yes."

"Ok that's perfect. Do you mind if I borrow you car?"

"Tell me something."

"Ok."

"Is there another woman in you life?"

"No. There is no other woman. Natalia got the wrong idea. No one can ever take her place."

"Ok you can take my car."

"Oh and will you meet up with her and grab the kids so that way when she comes home its just me and her. I want to do something
special for her, but I want it to be a surprise."

"Sure."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

A few hours later Natalias mom met up with her and got the kids and took them for ice cream as Natalia headed home. When Natalia got home
she opened the door and saw all kinds of colored rose pedals on the floor that led up stairs. She followed them up stairs to the room that
she was staying in. When she opened the door, candles lit up the room.

She went over to the bed that was covered with rose pedals and it had a
letter on it. She opened the letter and read it.

Dear Nat,
I'm so sorry for what happened. I really did only meet her at work, it was for an undercover thing, and nothing ever happened, and nothing will ever happen. No one can ever compete with you. You're my one and only. No one will every replace you. No one can ever replace you. Every rose pedal thats here describes my love for you. I can't even begin to put into words how much I love you. You're my everything, and I want you back. Love Eric.

"Eric." Natalia whispered as she looked around her room.

"You know, you never know how much you love someone till there actually not there beside you everyday." Eric said as he came out from the darkness.

Natalia jumped.

"How long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough to know you read my letter."

"Yea well I wasnt just gonna throw it away." Natalia said sharply as she crossed her arms and turned to face him.

"I'm surprised you didn't." Eric said as he walked up to her.

"Eric, why did you came here?"

"To show you why it wouldn't last if we were seperated from eachother any longer." Eric said as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him.

"Oh really?" Natalia said as she put her face just inches away from his.

"Yes." Eric said as he kissed her lips.

Natalia let out a sigh after the seperated and rested her head on Erics.

"You have no clue how much I have missed that." Eric said as he let out a little chuckle.

"Oh, I think I do." Natalia said as she looked back up at him.

"So is this all you had planned?" Natalia said looking around her.

"Oh, there's more."

"Oh really and what is that?"

"You'll see." Eric said as he pushed her back onto the bed and hit play on the cd player and a song started playing.

"Undeniable, so incredible
Simply wonderful, you're beautiful
Everything I am, and I wanna be
You see in me
I wanna touch your skin
Til in feels like a sin
And take you places
That you've never been
Oh Baby this is real
The way you make me feel, Unbelievable"

Eric kissed her lips then made his way down her neck as he laced his fingers through hers as she moans lightly as he makes his way down her neck and touches every inch of her body with one feeling her bare skin.

"Got your breath on my skin and the taste of your kiss
Every inch and every curve
Late at night can't believe when you lie next to me
Cause I know this is more than I deserve"

Eric softly sings into her ear.

"Undeniable, so incredible
Simply wonderful, you're beautiful
Unmistakable, the way you make me feel, unbelievable."

Eric looked down at her and brushed a piece of hair out of her face and smiled at her.

"You're amazing." Natalia said as she pulled him down and kissed him.

"Words can't even begin to describe how amazing you are." Eric said as he kissed her again.

"I love you."

"I love you too, Talia." Eric said as Natalia smiled at him as he rolled onto his side behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. And they fell asleep together, music playing softly in the background.

Let me know what you think! :thumbsup: I know I put a bunch of song in this one but when I was typing this chapter, I was listening to music and thought it fit the timing perfectly!

First song is called "Call Your Name" by Daughtry

Second song is called "Life After You" by Daughtry

Third song is called "Ubelievable" by Josh Gracin
 
Aww! Eric's such a romantic! :D

I loved the part where he just ran the rest of the way to her mom's when his car broke down. :lol: Now that's what you call devotion right there! :adore:
 
Re: The make-up "scene" ....
Is it just me or did it just get very hot in here .. :lol:
Very nice. Love the letter & rose pedals move too.
The lyrics were great & they fit perfectly -- but I'd use italics (& possibly centered) to keep them seperated. Nice touch all the same. :)

I loved the part where he just ran the rest of the way to her mom's when his car broke down. :lol: Now that's what you call devotion right there! :adore:
I liked that too ...not to mention the image of Eric all sweaty, muscles flexed & his heart racing is just an added bonus....my drool bucket please.
 
Here's an update! Hope ya'll enjoy it! :)

Chapter 16

The next morning Eric opened his eyes to see Natalia still sleeping. He tried to move without waking her up but didn't do such a very good
job.

"Good morning beautiful, how was your night? Mine was wonderful with you by my side and when I open my eyes and see your
sweet face, its a good morning beautiful day." Eric sang softly to her as he kissed her.

"You know I could get used to waking up to that every morning." Natalia smiled up at him.

"Ha, I bet you could." Eric said as he rolled out of bed as did Natalia.

They walked down stairs hand in hand.

"Daddy!" Aiden screamed as he ran over to Eric.

"Hey!" Eric said picking him up and carrying him over to the couch as Adrianne and Avery came running over and sat down beside him as well. And as Natalia watched from the stairs with a smile on her face.

"What are ya'll doing?"

"We're about to make cookies!" Aiden said with big brown eyes.

"Mmmmmm! Can't wait."

"So are you and mommy not fighting anymore?" Adrianne said.

"No, we're not." Natalia said as she walked down the stairs and sat beside Eric on the couch picking up Avery and holding her.

"Good, cause I didn't like not having daddy here." Avery said as she crossed her arms.

"Well it won't ever happen again I can tell you that." Eric said as he put his hand into Natalias.

"Good." The kids all said as the same time.

"Good morning everyone!" Natalias mom said as she walked out of their room.

"Morning!"

"So what are we gonna do today?" She said as she poured herself some milk.

"Lets go bowling!" Adrianne and Avery both said.

"That's not fair, I can't pick up a bowling ball." Aiden said as he pouted.

"We'll find you one Aiden." Natalias mom said as she put her glass in the sink.

"Ok!" Aiden said as everyone got up and they headed to get ready.

Natalia come out of the bathroom in white shorts, a baby blue mid length sleeve, checkered collared shirt that had brown and green in it as well (like a cowgirl shirt), and light brown Sperrys, and curly hair.

"You look cute." Eric said as he put his shoes on.

"Thanks!" Natalia said as she put a big smile on her face.

"We kinda match." Eric said as he laughed.

Eric had on a baby blue collared shirt with white and baby blue checkered shorts and flip flops.

"Yea, but I look better." Natalia said as she laughed and went out the door.

"Hey!" Eric said as he followed her downstairs to meet everyone else.

*At the bowlin alley*

They got their lanes and their balls. They got the bumpers for Adrianne, Avery, and Aiden.

"I'm gonna kick you butt!" Eric said.

"We'll see about that Delko." Natalia said as she grabbed her a pink ball.

"Don't miss." Eric whispered into her ear right before she went to go throw the ball.

"Eric! Shut up!" Natalia said as she turned around and slapped him in the stomach and threw her ball getting a strike.

"Good luck." Natalia said as she walked up to him. (Giving the look like in Going Under)

"Thanks." Eric said as he watched her walk past him.

Eric and Natalia were sitting beside eachother watching their kids bowl while waiting for her parents to get done.

"Go Aiden!" Adrianne and Avery both cheered for their brother as he got a strike by just pushing it down and his hands and knees.

"You know, I think I'm ready for another baby." Eric said as he turned to Natalia.

"Oh really?" Natalia said as she laughed.

"Yea." Eric said as he leaned in and kissed her.

"Get a room." The kids said.

"We will." Eric whispered as they seperated.

*Later on that night*

"I'm tired." Aiden said as he yawned.

"Well why don't we tuck you guys in." Eric said as he hopped off the couch.

"No." They all whined.

"Yes." Eric said as he pulled them all up and followed them up the stairs and tucked them in.

Afterwards Eric walked into their room and shut the door behind him.

"Pretty anxious to get the kids in bed don't ya think?" Natalia said coming out in lingerie that Eric had bought for her.

It was a green color and silk material. And to Erics delight she pulled it off really well.

"And that is why." Eric said as he thought his jaw was gonna drop to the floor.

"You know Eric, I think you got this a little to small." Natalia said as she was trying to breathe.

"That's the whole point. It's not like you're gonna be in it for that long anyway." Eric said as he walked over to her and picked her up and took her to the bed kissing her the whole time.

We all know what went on after that.

And the next day they moved back to their house.

Let me know what you think! :thumbsup:
 
"Lets go bowling!" Adrianne and Avery both said.

"That's not fair, I can't pick up a bowling ball." Aiden said as he pouted.

:lol: Aww! That's so cute! Poor Aiden.

"You know Eric, I think you got this a little to small."

"That's the whole point. It's not like you're gonna be in it for that long anyway."

:guffaw:

Great chapter! :D
 
they make such a great couple , Poor Aiden , the kids are really cute ,great chapter :thumbsup:
 
Ok this will probably be the last chapter! I hope yall aren't upset! But school is about to start and I know I probably wont have time to update it very much! So I hope this ending is alright! :) So here's the final chapter! Hope ya'll enjoy!

Chapter 16

One month had passed and Natalia missed her period and had bought a pregnancy test.

"Eric...." Natalia yelled as she ran down stairs.

"What?" Eric said as he jumped.

"Guess what?" Natalia said as she ran over to him.

"What?"

"We're pregnant!"

"Really?!"

"Yes!" Natalia said as she ran into Erics arms as he spun her around.

"Mommy what does pregnant mean?" Aiden said as he walked down stairs rubbing his eyes.

"It means you are gonna be a big brother now!" Eric said as he picked Aiden up.

"Really?"

"Yep!"

"Cool!"

A few months passed and Natalias stomach grew bigger.

"Mommy?" Aiden said as he hopped up beside her and Eric on the couch.

"Yea?"

"How does the baby get inside your tummy?" Aiden said as he put his hand on her stomach.

Natalia and Eric both looked at eachother.

"Um...Jesus puts it in there." Natalia said as she smiled down at Aiden.

"How do you get the baby?"

Natalia and Eric both looked at eachother again.

"You know what Aiden?"

"What?"

"Jesus creates the baby and then puts it in mommys tummy. But we'll talk about that later on in your life." Eric said as he picked Aiden up and
sat him on his lap.

"Can I talk to the baby?" Aiden said as he looked up at Eric.

"Sure."

Aiden slid over by Natalia and started talking to the baby.

"Hey lil brofer, I'm your big brofer, and I'm gonna take good care of you. I can't wait till you come out and see me! Me and daddy are gonna show you how to throw a football and a baseball! Well, I hope your doing ok in there! I'll see you soon! Love you!" Aiden said as he kissed Natalias stomach.

"Aiden, you wanna feel him moving?" Natalia said as she ran her hand through his hair.

"Yea!" Aiden said with big brown eyes.

Natalia grabbed his hand and placed it on her stomach as Aidens eyes got bigger as he felt the baby moving.

"Daddy!" Aiden said as he turned to face Eric.

"What?"

"Did you feel this? I mean there is a baby inside mommys tummy and it moves in there." Aiden said as he pointed to Natalias stomach.

"I know!"

"Here give me you hand so you can feel!" Aiden said as he grabbed Erics hand and placed it on Natalias stomach.

"Hey daddy?" Avery said as her and Adrianne walked downstairs.

"Yea?" Eric said as he turned his head towards them.

"Can we feel the baby too?" The girls said as they walked over to him.

"Yea." Eric said as he scooted over so that way the all the kids were between him and Natalia. Natalia shifted her weight to her side so she was facing the kids and Eric.

"That is so cool!" Avery said as she and Adrianne placed their hands on her stomach along with Aidens.

Eric grabbed his camera to take a picture of their hands on Natalias bare stomach.

"Oh, that is so a keeper." Eric said as he looked at the picture. He then turned the camera to Natalia so that way she could see.

"You know Delko, maybe you should go into photography." Natalia said as she smiled at him.

"Nah, I would get tired of taking pictures and then I wouldn't want to take pictures of your beautiful face anymore." Eric said as he laced his fingers through hers.

"Oh well then we wouldn't want that to happen!" Natalia said as she laughed.

"God, I love your laugh." Eric said as his smiled back her and pushed a piece of loose hair behind her ear with his free hand.

"And I love you."

"I love you too." Eric said as he pulled her head closer to his and kissed her lips softly.

"Ewwww..." Avery yelled and she took her hand off of Natalias stomach.

"What?" Eric and Natalia both said at the same time.

"You're exchanging saliva while we're sitting right here. That's just grosse."

"Well then I guess we'll have to give you kisses then won't we." Natalia said as she pulled Avery and Aiden back to her and started giving them kisses everywhere while Eric grabbed Adrianne and gave her kisses.

"Ok, ok, we'll leave you two alone!" Avery yelled as she pulled away from Natalias grasp.

They kids slowly walked towards the stairs.

"It looks like they've already had time together." Adrianne said as they started to head up the stairs but turned around to see Erics and Natalias face. Natalias jaw almost hit the ground as Eric turned to see her face and started laughing with the kids.

"What is so funny about that Delko? They're 5 years old and they're already talking like that!" Natalia said as she looked at him.

Eric started kissing Natalia again and the kids ran up the stairs making gagging noises.

"Alone at last." Eric said as he pushed Natalia back on the couch kissing her the whole time.

*6 months passed and they had a little boy named Aaron.*

3 years passed and they were celebrating their 7 year anniversary.

"Hey..." Eric said as he pinched Natalias sides.

"Oh my God!" Natalia said as she jumped.

"What do you want?" Natalia said smiling as she turned around.

"You." Eric said handing her a rose and then kissing her.

"Come with me." Eric said taking her hand and leading her out the back door and down to the beach.

"Happy Anniversary!" Eric said wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her.

"Right back at you." Natalia said kissing him back.

"Dance with me." Eric said as he heard music start playing.

Natalia smiled at him and wrapped her arms around his neck as they danced and listened to the song.

"Half the time passed away
All the trouble that we gave
And all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste?
All the promises we made
One by one they vanished just the same

All the things I still remember
Summers never look the same
Years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September
We still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Now it all seems so clear
There's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long
That summer's moving on
Reach for something that's already gone
Yeah

All the things I still remember
Summers never look the same
Years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September
We still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Yeah we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when, and we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Yeah we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when, and we never knew how
Never knew anything

All the things I still remember
Summers never look the same
Years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain
In the middle of September
We still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end."

Eric and Natalia rested their heads together and sighed.

"I love you." Eric said.

"I love you too." Natalia said as they kissed one last time before being interupted.

"Family picture time!" Natalias mom called as the kids came running out.

Picture position: Eric and Natalia sitting behind the kids, while the girls were on the outside sitting in front of Eric and Natalia while, Aiden and Aaron were sitting in the middle. They were all turned halfway inward.

They took their picture and had it blown up a few days later and hung it over their fireplace.

"I know one thing..." Eric said as he came up from behind Natalia wrapping his arms around her.

"What's that?" Natalia said staring at the picture.

"I have the most beautiful family in the world." Eric said as he looked at the picture.

Natalia smiled and turned around and kissed him until something had to stop them.

The End

Song is called September by Daughtry
