Rose." Jack said, walking out from April's room, shutting the door behind him.
"They're asleep already?!" Rose joked.
"Yes. Out like a light." Jack said sitting down on the couch next to Rose. "I've been thinking."
"And?" Rose interrupted.
"Well. Remember on Titanic when you said you wanted to go to that Pier down in Santa Monica? Well, do you still want to go?"
"Jack! You remembered that?!" Rose yelled hugging into him.
"Rose, I remember every word you say." Jack said kissing her forehead. "Well? Do you want to? I could call the hotel and the sitter and we could leave in two days. But only if you want!"
"Of corse I do!" Rose said with excitement.
"Okay. We'll call the sitter and book the room tomorrow. We leave in two days. Now come on, let's head to bed for some alone time." Jack said stroking Rose's hair.
"Carry me." Rose joked, as she extended her arms for Jack to pick her up.
"Alright." Jack laughed as he picked Rose up and carried her down the hall like a groom carries his new bride. Jack carried Rose into the room and laid her on the bed. "Lay down next to me!" Rose said patting the empty space on the bed. "Put your hands on me Jack." Rose whispered in Jacks ear as he laid down next to her.
"Alright." he said as he began kissing her passionately.
"So me and daddy are going to be going on a little vacation; just the two of us. We will be gone for one night and two days. The sitter is going to be staying with you two. Is that okay?"
"Yes mommy." Rosa and April said.
"When are you and daddy leaving?" Rosa asked hugging into Jack.
"In the morning." Jack said looking down at Rosa.
"Okay daddy."
Will you bring us back something?" April asked.
"Yes sweetie." Jack said.
"Yay!" April giggled. "So where are you going?"
"We are going to a place where daddy used to live; before he met mommy. Mommy has wanted to go there for a while so since it has been 7 years since me and mommy met this month, we decided to do something special." Jack said, kissing Rose's cheek.
"Oh. Mommy, how did you and daddy meet?" Rosa asked.
"We met aboard a really big ship called Titanic, and daddy saved me from falling off. We spent some time together and we fell in love. Your father saved me. In more ways then anyone will ever know." Rose said smiling at Jack.
"Can we go on it one day?" April asked. Jack and Rose gave each other a look, and then Jack spoke up. "Sweetie, Titanic only sailed once, because it hit an iceberg.... And sank." Jack said; looking over at Rose who was crying a little.
"Oh." April said.
"Yeah. Sorry sweetie. You and Rosa head to bed, I will be in to tuck you guys in soon. I just need to talk to mommy for a while." Jack said.
"Okay daddy!" they said as they got up and went to their room.
"You okay?" Jack asked as he sat closer to Rose and put his arm around her.
"Yes. Just the memories of it. The screams, the cold water, the bodies, the coldness, us in the water. It's just too hard to remember it." Rose said, as Jack wipped the tears off her face.
"But it's over now. And I'm here. And I know it was hard. But we have to be strong. It's over and done with." Jack said kissing her. "Now I have to tuck the girls in and we have to pack, come on sweetie." Jack said helping Rose up.
"Goodbye girls! I love you!" Rose yelled as her and Jack were getting ready to leave.
"Love you too mommy!" they called from their rooms.
"Got everything?" Rose asked Jack as he walked out of April's room, picking up the suitcases.
"Yeah. Let's go go!" he said, opening the door for Rose. "You excited?"
"Yes!" Rose said excited.
The ride to Santa Monica was going to be about 6 hours but Rose didn't mind; she was too excited to care.
"Jack." Rose started.
"Yes."
"I've been thinking about this for a while. And I was wondering, how you feel about another baby. I'm not pregnant, well I'm not sure, I gotten sick a few times the past three weeks, I've gained some weight, and I feel different. So it could be possible."
"Well. Another baby would be nice. I mean, I wouldn't mind another one, I think it would be nice. And if you are pregnant, that's fine! And Rose, you don't look like you've gained weight." Jack said smiling.
"I feel the same way you do, I mean, I would love another baby! I actually think I am pregnant. "
"Rose! This is amazing! When will you know for sure?" Jack said holding Rose's hand.
"Soon, but considering the way I've been feeling, and the size of my stomach, I'm pretty sure I am pregnant."
"This is great!" Jack said excited.
"Rose." Jack said waking Rose up. "We're here, well at the hotel."
"What?" Rose asked a little groggy. "We're here?!" She said looking out the window.
"We'll go to our room then go to the Pier, we'll have dinner there." Jack said opening his door.
They went into their room, got their stuff organized and headed off to the pier.
"Here we are!" Jack said as he pulled into the parking lot.
"Jack! It's beautiful!" Rose said rushing out of the car.
"I believe cheap beer is first." Jack laughed as he got out of the car.
"Yes." Rose said, holding Jacks hand as they walked toward a stand to get beer.
"Here you go!" Jack said handing Rose a glass of beer. Rose took the beer and took 5 chugs.
"What? Still can't think a first class- well, a former first class girl can't drink?" Rose joked.
"Sorry sweetie." Jack said laughing as he kissed Rose. "You ready to ride the roller coaster till you're sick?"
"Yup!" Rose said, pulling Jack toward the roller coaster.
"Jack!! I think I'm going to be sick!" Rose screamed as she held on to Jack tightly.
"That's the plan!" he yelled laughing.
"That was the best ride ever!" Rose yelled laughing as they got off of the ride.
"You having fun?" Jack asked.
"Yes!!"
"Well come on, there's only one more thing we have to do!" he said.
They got 2 horses and walked them toward the beach.
"Do you need any help?" Jack asked.
"Yes. I've never rode a horse like this before!" Rose said.
"Okay, here we go!" Jack said helping Rose onto the horse. "Now, I know you're use to the that sidesaddle stuff, but you promised me you would do one leg on each side and they gave you a riding suite so you can't use that excuse!" Jack laughed as Rose got on the horse. "Now. You put one foot in here and the other goes on this side. Got that?" He said as Rose placed her feet properly on the horse. "You're doing great! Now just keep your balance and there you go! Great job!" Jack said as he went to his horse. "Okay." he said as he got on. "How ya doing?" Jack said as the horses walked toward the surf.
"I'm doing pretty good actually, this is easier than I thought it would be!" Rose said as her horse walked into the surf. "Jack."
"Yeah Rose?" Jack said with his horse next to Rose's.
"Thank you. I never thought I would get here because of the way my life was, but, you kept your promise, you got me here, and you've given me the best years of my life! You've given me everything I ask for! Two wonderful kids, a third one on the way, and a normal life! I love you so much and I always will! I can not live without you! I love you so much!" Rose said as she got off her horse as they got back to the renter.
"I love you too." Jack said, picking Rose up spinning her around while kissing her passionately in the surf. "You ready to head back to the hotel?" Jack asked as their lips parted.
"Right after this." Rose said pushing Jack into the water.
"You're gonna get it!" Jack said grabbing Rose and putting her in the water. "I love you." Jack said leaning into kiss Rose.
"I love you too." Rose said pushing Jack in under a wave. "Come on! Let's go dry off in the car! There're towels in there from the beach!" Rose said running toward the car with Jack chasing her.
"Jack. Today was amazing. Thank you." Rose said as she got into bed.
"You welcome." Jack replied as he laid down next to her. "So do you know if you're pregnant for sure yet?"
"I want to you look at my stomach. Then tell me what you think." Rose said as she pulled her nightgown up showing a small baby bump. "Well?"
"Yes?" Jack asked.
"Yes! I'm pregnant!" Rose said kissing Jack.
"Rose this is amazing! When will we tell the girls?"
"How about after we give them their gifts, we tell them?" Rose said.
"Sure." Jack said kissing Rose's stomach. "Good night you two."
"Good night. I love you." Rose said turning off the lamp.
"I love you too."
"We're home!" Jack and Rose called as they walked through door.
"Mommy! Daddy!" April and Rosa yelled as they ran up to their parents. "We missed you!"
"We missed you too!" Rose said kissing both of them as the sitter walked toward the door.
"Thank you so much for babysitting, here's your pay." Rose said handing the sitter her money.
"No problem, and they were angels, well, goodbye! And they've already had their lunch so they're good for bed!" she said as she walked out the door.
"Did you get us anything daddy?" April asked.
"Yes we did. Come into the living room and we'll give them to you." Jack said picking April up, carrying her into the living room. When they got into the living room, they handed the girls two stuff dolphins with "Santa Monica" written on them, the purple one with blue letters for Rosa and the pink one with orange letters was for April. "Do you like them?" Jack asked.
"Yes!" the girls said.
"That's great, and we have one more surprise for both of you. Well, it's really for the whole family." Rose said holding Jacks hand.
"What is it?" Rosa asked.
"Jack, do you want to tell them?" Rose asked.
"Sure. Girls, mommy's going to have another baby."
"We're going to have a brother or sister?!" April yelled.
"If everything goes good, yes, you will have a new baby brother or sister." Rose said.
"Is there a baby bump?" Rosa asked walking toward Rose.
"There's a small one, here." Rose said showing the girls her small baby bump.
"What are you going to name it?" April asked.
"Me and daddy are going to talk about that tonight. Now, it's time for you two to go to bed. Me and daddy are going to tuck you in now, come on!"
"Goodnight." Rose said as she shut April's door. They quietly walked down the hall so they wouldn't wake the girls. "So Jack." Rose said as she shut their bedroom door. "We need to think of a boy name and a girl name." she said as she put on her nightgown. "Do you want to chose? Or both of us chose?"
"Both." He said pulling back the covers on the bed.
"Okay. Let's start with a girl name." Rose said getting in bed. "What names do you like?"
"Well." Jack said as he got in bed. "I really like the name Lillian. Or Lily for short."
"Why?"
"Well, a lily is a flower, and a rose is a flower, so..." he said smiling.
"But then if it's a girl, her name will be linked to mine, and then that will be two kids named after me!" Rose laughed. "But, it is a pretty name, so, alright. But I chose the boy name!"
"Deal."
"Well, since Rosa is named after me, if it's a boy, and our first boy, his named should be linked to yours. So, I really like the name Jake and Jake sounds like Jack, so..."
"Okay. That seems fair. Goodnight." Jack said leaning in to kiss her.
"Wait! Jack, if it's a boy, could his middle name be Thomas? After Mr. Andrews, he was a great guy, and I think it would be nice."
"Sure. That sounds nice. Now, it's time to go to sleep." Jack said kissing her. "I love you."
"I love you too."
"They're asleep already?!" Rose joked.
"Yes. Out like a light." Jack said sitting down on the couch next to Rose. "I've been thinking."
"And?" Rose interrupted.
