Summary: So before you throw tomatoes at my head for not updating for two whole solid months but not all of it was my fault. My computer was having serious health problems and it needed a new transplant, or power source before it was fixed. Also there was the internet that was completely taken away and it took time to get that back. Add that to my writer's block and going to school and work all the time it was hard for me to update and I became on of those people that I never wanted to be, a slow updater.
But anyways, this time it doesn't matter about this story because it's over. That's right, over, finito, finished, fin, and I can't tell you how happy I am because it was my first ever slash story and I wanted to do a good job on it. It's like having a kid and sending them off into the real world, it's time for them to go off on their own and you won't be there to watch over them anymore. Well anyways, I think I held up enough of your time so I will let you get it over and read the finale chaper of My Weird New Relationship, dedicated to all my readers; YOU ROCK!!!!!
Chapter 12: My Super Suprises
"Are you sure you don't want a party?"
"How many times do you have to tell you, no parties?" Perry grumbled as he sat on the sofa right beside J.D who was laid his back on Perry's lap. "I hate parties."
"No" J.D smiled. "You hate parties thrown by other people; you would love the party thrown by me."
"Let me add this up for you okay Penelope. People plus birthdays times parties equals a very unhappy Perry."
"Okay I get it; I give up trying to make your birthday special."
"It will be special as long as I'm with you" Perry smirked as he bent down to kiss J.D
"Well if I can't throw you a party we are going out for a nice dinner"
"Oh J.D come on." Perry whined as he moved away from J.D. He thought that he had gotten out of having to do anything for his birthday but J.D was consistent on doing something anyway. "I don't want to celebrate my birthday."
"Because I thought after dinner we could rent a wonderful hotel room where we could have sex for hours, and hours, and hours"
"And hours?"
"Hours, but if you want to just stay at…"J.D tried to say but was cut off by Perry lips, which were suddenly crushed against his; enabling him to make another sound.
"Alright Piper, if you're going to beg me then I guess we can go out to dinner."
"I knew you would surrender and I was thinking that maybe we shouldn't have sex until your birthday"
"Are you serious?" Perry jerked up and looked directly at J.D
"Yeah I am" J.D replied. "Come on it's only for two nights and I really want to make this a special birthday for you, you deserve it. Plus I need to build up all the stamina I can if I am going to be giving you the best sex of your life"
"I don't know?"
"Please for me." J.D pouted as he leaned in closer to Perry.
"Dammit." Perry cursed softly under his breath. "Fine, we won't have any sex until my birthday."
"Cool and just to make sure there isn't any temptation, I will sleep in the guest room" J.D replied as he got up from the sofa.
"Fine," Perry sulked It's getting late anyways so we should call it a night."
"Alright." J.D smiled as he leaned down to give Perry a kiss only to be blocked by Perry covering his face.
"You don't want to kiss me right now because I might not be able to resist temptation"
"God some men can be so weak."
"Blow it out your ass kid." Perry grunted. "Let's just shake hands and call it a night."
"Shake hands?"
"Yes because if you're really serious about us not having sex then we cannot have any sexual contact"
"Oh, okay I am cool with that. Good night Perry" J.D smiled extending his hand which Perry angrily took.
He watched J.D walk away and mumbled to himself about how weak he was when he came to J.D. Anything that J.D wanted him to do; he pretty much would do without any hesitation. He sighed as he too got up from the sofa and made his way to the bathroom. If J.D wanted them to go without sex for the next two days then he was going to need to take many cold showers.
The next morning J.D and Perry walked arm in arm into the hospital and found a cheerful Carla standing at the nurse's station. Her smile got even brighter when she noticed the happy couple coming towards her.
"How's the happy couple?" Carla smiled putting down her clipboard.
"I'm wonderful thank you." J.D smiled back
"I'm sexually frustrated." Perry smirked at the Latino woman.
"Do I even want to know?" Carla frowned looking back and forth between the two
"No, you really don't" Perry answered letting go of J.D's arm
"Don't pay him any attention; he's just upset because I told him that we weren't having "relations" until his birthday?"
"Oh, I see" Carla smiled. "Bambi has got his goodies under lock and key. Must be frustrating for you huh?"
"He's just being a big baby." J.D replied as he glanced at his watch. "Look I have to go, see you guys later" He kissed Perry and waved goodbye to Carla before making his way down the hall.
"Awe poor Perry, his man cut him off."
"This is not funny Carla, so not funny at all."
"I know, I mean I can see how you can't keep your hands off of J.D." Carla teased. "I know that he is my husband's best friend but I have got say that he is looking mighty fine. His hair is just perfect and have you seen his ass lately, you can bounce a quarter off of it"
"He has been working out more," Perry agreed.
"I know, the other day I walked into the gym and he was lifting weights. With his shirt off and if you hadn't noticed his chest is looking much buffer. I bet you just can't wait to run your fingers across it and-"
"Carla would you stop it" Perry snapped. "It is bad enough that I have to wait until tomorrow to have sex, but with you talking like that I am going to want to jump him ever time I see him"
"I know, why do you think that I am saying all this?"
"Why?"
"It's what I do" Carla smiled
"I hate you." Perry growled as he stomped away
"Whatever."
An hour Perry was walking to check on one of his patients that were being released when he felt himself being pulled into an empty room.
"What the hell?" Perry nearly shouted as he turned around to face a shirtless J.D locking the door to the room. "J.D, what are you doing?"
"I want you right here and right now." J.D growled as he made his way over to Perry and pushed him on the bed.
"But I thought you said-"
"I know what I said" J.D snapped as he began to leave a trail of kisses on Perry's jaw line.
"But I have been here for an hour and I can't get you out of my mind. Last night you
have no idea how badly how much I wanted to crawl into bed with you last night."
"Then why didn't you?" Perry moaned thrusting his hips against J.D's when the kisses reached his neck.
"Please and show you that I was weak too, I think not. I was still in shock that you even agreed to do this."
"So you decided to do this to me?"
"Yeah I do, I just love watching you squirm. It makes me even hotter for you."
"So you did realize that what you said was stupid?"
"That's exactly what I said didn't I?" J.D smirked. "And I also said that I want you right here, right now."
"Well then what are we waiting for" Perry smirked.
"If I recall it right, you are the one with your shirt still on" J.D smiled.
"That problem can be solved." Perry smiled back letting J.D take off his shirt and throw it on the floor.
"Now that is more like it." J.D replied as he brought his lips to Perry's
Twenty minutes later, Perry and J.D left out of the empty room with big smiles on their faces. J.D ran his fingers through his hair, while Perry straightened out his clothes.
"That was fun."
"It sure was." Perry replied. "We should do it more often."
"We most definitely should." J.D smiled licking his lips. "How about tonight after our shifts?"
"Do you even have to ask?"
"I guess not." J.D replied kissing Perry on the lips as his pager went off. "Looks like I have to go so we can finish this talk later, love you."
"Love you too." Perry smiled as J.D walked away. He too went off to finish his work, walking right past Elliot and Carla who were pretending not to be watching them.
"I told you so."
"Yeah you did, I should have believed you when you said it."
"I knew that they couldn't make it." Carla smirked taking a twenty out of Elliot's hands. "Never underestimate the power of sex Elliot."
"I won't ever do it again." Elliot frowned. "I guess it's true what they say, men will be men."
"You said it."
When it was time for him and J.D to leave for the evening, Perry walked around the hospital looking for J.D. When he finally found him, he saw that he was in deep conversation with Carla. Perry thought that he would join the two but as soon as he made his way over to the counter, they pair stopped talking.
"So what are you two gals yapping about?" Perry smiled.
"Nothing." J.D stuttered.
"Nothing at all."
"Really, then why are you two over here having a secret conversation?"
"We weren't having a secret conversation, were we Carla."
"Absolutely not." Carla laughed nervously. "I was just telling J.D about the thing."
"The thing." J.D said looking confused
"Yes the thing."
"Oh right the thing, the thing with Turk and the other thing." J.D rambled. "Look I left something in my locker so I have to go and retrieve it."
Perry watched as J.D sprinted down the hall and away from him and Carla. Perry took this time to find out what the two were really talking about
"So Carla, seeing as how we have been friends longer than you and Courtney how about you tell me what you two were talking about?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Carla replied calmly
"Don't play blonde with me Carla, is Newbie planning to throw me a birthday party or not?"
"And if he was, you say that like it's a bad thing?"
"It is a bad thing?" Perry sighed. "I just don't do well at parties."
"Whatever" Carla smirked. "Listen, you have known me long enough to know that I won't lie to you. I can honestly say that J.D is not throwing you a party on your birthday."
"Seriously?"
"Yes seriously, there will be no party on your birthday." Carla smiled.
"Alright." Perry sighed, not really believing a word that came out of her mouth. He sighed again as he grabbed his keys and headed out of the door. He walked to the car and found that J.D was already in the car. More than in the car, he was actually in the driver's seat.
"Robin what the hell?"
"Now before you get your knickers in a knot, I have a perfectly good reason for why I am in the driver's seat."
"Spill."
"Well you birthday is tomorrow and we both have the next couple of days off. I decided that tonight would be the perfect night to give you your birthday surprise" J.D smiled as he opened the car door, signaling Perry to get in. "And the only way that I can keep it a surprise is if you let me drive."
"And just where are we going?"
"I can't tell you stupid, that would ruin the surprise."
"Newbie you know I hate surprises" Perry growled as he put on his seatbelt and closed the door.
"I know, why do you think that I am doing it" J.D smiled back as he pulled off and started the drive.
They two spent the next hour and half driving to a secluded area. When they almost arrived to their destination, J.D made Perry put on the blindfold that he had brought for him. Perry reluctantly put on the blindfold and J.D continued to drive. Ten minutes later, J.D pulled up to a nice beach house, overlooking the beach itself. Helping Perry out of the car, J.D walked them into the house and took off Perry's blindfold. He backed away from the man, and sported a smile on his face.
"What the hell-?"
"Do you like it, I mean I wanted to do something special for your birthday and so here it is. Tada?"
"But I thought you were going to throw me a party."
"I thought about it but I realized that you probably wouldn't have fun so I decided on this instead. I mean I planned this months ago and I was going to throw the party too but…you get what I'm trying to say right. So do you like it?"
"I do Annabelle, I really do" smiling as he grabbed J.D by the waist and pulled him close. He had never had someone do something so special for him and it gave him an amazing feeling inside. "But what were you talking with Carla about?"
"I was about to ruin the surprise but Carla was keeping me strong." J.D smirked. "She kept reminding me of the look on your face when I brought you here. Said that it would be the best thing I ever saw in my entire life and I gotta say that she was right."
"She was, was she?"
"Yup, she surely was." J.D replied as he kissed Perry seductively on the lips and pulled away before it could go any further. "So-"
"So, what?"
"We have this nice, big house to ourselves, full of everything we need, and no interruptions for the next three days. What do you propose we do?"
"I'd say that we should first go check out the bedroom" Perry smiled as J.D lead him to the bedroom, happily taking in the moment that was playing out before him.
"Well you are the birthday boy so I guess I have to do whatever you say, all weekend long." J.D grinned as he crawled Perry once they had found their way into the sunlit bedroom. He loved seeing his lover happy because it made him a happier person.
"Whatever I say, huh. Well Newbie I have got to say that this has been the best damn birthday ever."
"Your welcome" he smiled once again as he pulled Perry into a passionate kiss; their first on many in the newly occupied beach house.
Three days later and a much sexually satisfied J.D and Perry returned to the hospital. They had spent the last three days together alone and were unhappy when then had to return back to work. Perry was happy that J.D kept his promise and didn't throw him a party like he asked him not to do but he couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to happen, involving J.D and someone else that he had know. Going their separate ways, they made their way to started their on their daily routine. Although Perry didn't want to be back in the hellhole, nobody could wipe the happy expression that radiated off of his face.
"I see that somebody had fun." Carla teased when she saw Perry walk up to her.
"So what if I did?"
"Oh Perry you don't have to be hard about it. You should be happy that your boyfriend took you out for your birthday instead of throwing you a party."
"Do you have to say that word?"
"What word?"
"Boyfriend." Perry cringed as he gave Carla one of his charts. "It sounds so-so-"
"So what; gay? Well hate to break it to you Perry J.D is your boyfriend. You might as well get used to the idea."
"I am used to the idea but it makes me seem girly and I am a very manly man who is no where near girly."
"Oh my God, you are so stupid." Carla whispered under her breath as she walked away from him.
"Can we use the word partner or significant other because those are better terms for me?" he yelled to Carla as she walked away. Laughing when he saw her turn the corner he walked right into the last person that he ever suspected to see for a long time.
"Ah if it isn't Satan herself; what brings you out of your little hellhole into my big hellhole?"
"Why Perry, I'm surprised that you're even talking to me knowing that your boy toy might try to scratch my eyes out for messing with his man."
"Please with your acidic saliva, one bite from you could be deadly seeing as how you love fighting dirty and you are no where near human." Perry smirked as his ex-wife came closer to him. If anything, him and Jordan would always have sarcastic remarks to say to each other; no matter if they weren't together. "Anyways Jordaroni what the hell are you doing here."
"Did you forget that I am a board member oh this God forsaken hospital?" she spat bitterly at her ex who was currently pissing her off. She didn't know why, but he always knew just what to say to get her upset; one of the mean things she hated about him. "Or was that to much information to store inside that pea brain of yours?"
"So it that time of the year when you actually come out in the daylight do some real work; why by golly you must be gun ho tired?"
Jordan opened his mouth to say something but a woman appeared before her with a baby in her arms. Her face was frantic and she quickly thrust the baby into Jordan's arms and threw the bag on the ground.
"I'm sorry Ms. Sullivan but I have to go. I just got a phone call from county hospital and my brother has just been admitted-"
"Hey toots; I don't pay you so I can watch my own baby" Jordan yelled but the woman had ran down the hallway. Jordan placed the baby on her shoulder and she blew out a loud angry sigh. "I hate foreigners."
"She didn't look foreign."
"She's from Jersey."
"Oh." Perry said shrugging his shoulders. His eyes shifted from Jordan and the baby and he tried to estimate how old the baby was just by the size of it but he couldn't. "Nice baby."
"A pain in my ass maybe, nice not so much" Jordan growled.
"I didn't know that demon spawns could fertilize human vessels but it seems as though I was wrong. Perry laughed aloud. "So tell me Jordini, who was the freaking pathetic loser that you got to go along with your plan to conceive the heir of all darkness."
"You think that's funny" Jordan snarled. She suddenly put the baby into Perry's hands and started to walk around him. "Well you see Perry the guy that knocked me up doesn't even know that he has a baby but I you want to know what he looks like. He's about 6'1, in his forties, who exercises like there is no tomorrow. He has sandy blonde hair that if left uncut will curl and before I forget, has a god like complex about himself."
"Well Jordan the way that you get around that could just be anybody."
"Well guess what Perry it's not just anybody; it's you"
"What?"
"It's you, you're the father" Jordan said again, this time in a whisper tone but still loud enough for Perry to hear. It wasn't the way she wanted to tell him but she had to admit that she felt better after telling him the truth.
Perry looked at Jordan when she came back to a stop in front of him. At first he thought she was just being evil trying to prank him, pull him back into her claws once again.
"You're lying."
"Does it look like I'm lying Perry?" Jordan smirked. "Look at the curly hair; everyone in my family has straight hair."
Perry looked at the baby in front of him and saw that she was right. The baby's head was covered in soft curly blonde hair; much like his hair looked when he didn't cut it for a while. The more he looked at the baby in his arms, the more he realized that she was telling the truth. "What…how…I mean we haven't slept together in like-"
"Since you and D.J hooked up which was two weeks before that."
"But when you came to see me-"
"I didn't know it at the time that I was already two months pregnant."
"And that was almost a year ago which means-"
"That he will be turning 5 months in about a week"
"He; it's a he"
"Yeah it's a boy and your son's name is Jack."
"Oh my God you have a son."
Perry turns around and sees J.D standing behind him, shock look on his face and his charts on the floor. He was wrapped in the new found information that J.D never once crossed his mind. Now that he was standing right there in front of him he didn't know what to say.
"Well if it isn't the other woman" Jordan smiled as she took the baby out of Perry's arms and placed him on her shoulder. "How are you?"
"You have a son" J.D asked shocked again. He couldn't believe that the person he loved had a child with someone that he used to love.
"J.D-I don't know what to say-"
"Say, what's there to say; do you have a son or don't you?"
"Yes he has a son," Jordan interrupted Perry before he had a chance to say anything. "And before you get your panties in a bunch, he just found out because I didn't tell him. This all happened before you and him ever slept together."
J.D just stared back and forth between Perry and Jordan and then he let his eyes drift to the baby. The baby was big enough to be between three or four months old and his hair had a sandy blonde color, curling at the tips. He knew that Jordan was definitely not lying about Perry being the father of her baby.
"Okay" was all J.D could find himself to say.
"J.D please- wait, what do you mean okay"
"You have a son with Jordan but it happened before us so I mean okay."
"You're okay with this"
"Yeah" J.D stuttered as he began to pick his charts up off the floor. He didn't want to say what he was really feeling so he decided to just say that everything was okay. It would give him time to get his thoughts together without saying something that he might regret.
"J.D you don't think we should-"
"Perry, I'm fine so just drop it okay" J.D snapped as he started to walk away.
Perry looked at J.D leave and debated whether or not to follow behind him when Jack started to cry. Jordan removed him off her shoulder and into her arms to quiet him down but it didn't work.
"May I" Perry asked when Jack continued to cry.
"Sure, it's your turn anyway." Jordan shrugged as she gave the baby to Perry and began to walk off.
"Hey, where are you going?" Perry called out to her but she kept on walking.
"I'm been doing it by myself for almost five months and I need a break." she said as she disappeared from sight.
"Jordan, Jordan. I don't know what to do? Jordan." Perry tried calling to her but she didn't return. He looked down in his arms and saw that the baby had already began to fall asleep. He sighed as he picked up the diaper bag off the floor and walked to the nursery of the hospital.
Four hours later Perry had a bouncing baby in his arms when Jordan came back in a completely different outfit, bags in her hand, hair colored with highlights and her skin seemed to be glowing.
"Did you go shopping and get your hair done?" Perry asked.
"Yes I did Perry and it was wonderful. Do you know how hard it is to go shopping with a baby who always tries to eat the tags on the clothes? Or how good it feels to have a man run his fingers through your hair while telling you how beautiful you are; oh wait, you already have that with DJ." She laughed as she placed her bags on the floor.
"You went shopping and…is your skin…glowing?"
"Well I needed a facial to go along with the new outfits that I brought; what's the big deal."
"You left me with our son and didn't even check in for nearly four hours."
"Oh Perry come on, he's not dead is he. I left him with his father, who works in a hospital, and is a doctor for God's sake. What's the worst that could have happened." Jordan smirked as she sat down in the chair.
"Well when you put it like that then I guess, nothing" he replied as he put the baby down in the borrowed bassinet and sat down beside Jordan. He had time to think about his new addition to his life and had many questions to ask his ex-wife.
"Why didn't you tell me?" was the first thing he wanted to know. How could she not tell him that she was pregnant ant that they were expecting a baby.
"About where I was going come on Perry-"
"That's not what I meant Jordan" Perry hissed at her. "Why didn't you tell me about Jack?"
"I don't know-it's just, I didn't want to come off as the evil ex-wife who was looking for revenge and found it in the means of carry her ex-husband's child." she sighed as she grabbed his hands and placed them on her lap. "When I came back and found that you had already moved on I was upset. I was upset that after all those years of trying to get you to get it together you finally got it together for someone else but-I realized that you were happy and I wanted you to be happy. I didn't know if your after school project would be able to handle the fact that you were having a baby, with me no less."
"Jordan, you still should have told me. I had a right to know whether we were together or not."
"I know that and I'm sorry for keeping this from you. I totally understand if you don't want to-"
"Don't say that" Perry quickly interrupted his ex-wife. He knew what she was about to say and he already knew that there was no way in hell he wouldn't be there for his child. "I am going to be there for Jack no matter what. I may not be the best father but I'm going to try my damnest to be."
"Okay" Jordan smiled as she looked at him. Even though she thought she was doing the right thing by not telling him the truth, she realized that it was the wrong choice. Perry wasn't the type of man not to step up and claim his responsibilities. She knew that he was going to be there for his son, no matter what; even if it meant giving up his lover. "Have you talked to J.D?"
"No" Perry blew as he placed his hands behind his head and slid down in the chair. He hadn't been able to find J.D since Jordan left and wondered if he was going to be okay with the situation. "I haven't seen him since you left."
"Do you think he's really okay with this?"
"I don't know, I mean I want him to be but-it's a lot for him take in all at once. I don't want to lose him but I don't want to miss out on anymore of my son's life."
"Look Perry you going to have to tell D.J to suck it up because your more than just his boyfriend you're a father now and your son needs you."
"And if he can't?"
"Then I guess he's not the person that you thought he was and I guess he's not the one for you." Jordan replied as she laid her head on Perry's shoulder.
Four hours later Perry found himself finally home after a hectic day. Not only did he found out that he had a son by his demon ex-wife but he hadn't been able to find J.D all day. He had wanted to talk to J.D every since he had ran off but he hadn't had the chance. He needed to tell him that he didn't want to choose between him or his son because he knew who would win the battle.
When he finally broke down and asked Carla if she seen him, she told him that he went home over two hours ago. Sighing he opened the door to his apartment and saw J.D standing in the living room with a t-shirt and sweats on. Surrounding him were a bunch of empty brown boxes.
"Oh hey you're home." J.D smirked at Perry as he came into the door.
"Oh my God" Perry shrieked as he ran over to J.D and grabbed him by the arms, pushing him down on the sofa. "What do you think that you're doing?"
"I was just-"
"Leaving, you were leaving. That's why you left work early, so you could home to pack all your things to move out. I knew that you were upset at the hospital but upset enough to leave, I didn't think it was that bad."
"Perry please, let me explain?"
"Explain what, your mad at me because I found that I have a kid."
"I'm not mad, I'm just."
"Then what are you, scared?" Perry replied as he sat down in the chair next to J.D. "Are
you scared that this baby will bring me and Jordan closer together? Or are you scared that I'll forgot all about you and spend all my free time with Jack because I can tell you that I will never forget about you. I scared too you know and I will feel much better about this whole father thing if you were there beside me."
"Wow; I don't know what to say."
"Well I do. Look I don't want you to go. I refuse to let you leave without a fight but I don't want to choose between you and my son."
"I see you're fighting for me once again" J.D smiled as he grabbed Perry's hand. He found that every time Perry did something like this he fell in love with him more and more. "Perry I'm not leaving."
"What, but at the hospital you were upset."
"Yes I was upset and you were right a few minutes ago. I was scared that this baby would bring you and Jordan closer together and all that time together would cause you to forget about me and make you fall in love with her again."
"That's never gonna happen because I am not in love with Jordan anymore. A part of me will always love her but I love you now and maybe for many years to come, hopefully."
"And I hope so too," J.D laughed. "Because I love you too and that's why I'm not leaving. I realized that this baby is now your number one priority and I'm okay with that. That baby needs a father and I think that you will make a good one."
"Then why are you packing your things?"
"I'm not packing my things, I moving stuff out of the guest room."
"You want to sleep in the guest room, I thought you weren't mad."
"I'm not mad." J.D replied as he got up from the chair and went back to the boxes in the living room. "And I am not sleeping in the guest room either."
"Then why are you packing?" Perry asked confused. He truly had no clue what was going on.
"Sweetie did you happen to read the boxes when you came into the door or did your declaration of love for me get in the way of that."
"What?" Perry asked as he looked around the room. That's when he realized that all the boxes were not empty, in fact, some of the boxes were sealed up. He saw that one box in particular was a box for a crib. Other boxes had diapers, wipes, bottles and even baby clothes. "You brought baby stuff."
"Well yeah" J.D shrugged. "I figured that the baby was going to be here on a regular basis so he would need his own room. Then I realized he's going to need something to sleep in and drink out of so I thought that we could use this stuff."
"We-"
"That's not a problem is it?" J.D whispered. "It's just that the baby is apart of your life now and you're apart of my life so I know that he now comes with the package. I promise that I won't get in the way of you raising him, I'll keep my distance and everything if that's what you and Jordan both want."
"J.D I-"
"I hope that's alright."
Perry didn't say anything but get up from the chair and wrapped his arms around J.D, pulling him closer. "It's perfect" he smiled as he kissed him on the lips.
"Really?" J.D asked when they pulled apart.
"Really. I was scared that you weren't going to be able to handle this and want to leave."
"Never, I love you and I will be with you every step of the way. I just don't know where I would fit in your new life."
"You will fit in just fine, you never have to worry about that; I promise." Perry smiled as he kissed J.D again.
"That's good to know. That's really good to know but I need your help putting this crib together.
"Why Lucinda, you brought it?"
"With your credit card." J.D added, smiling at the older man's new facial which now sported a shocked face.
"You used my credit card?"
"It's your kid, I was doing you a favor."
"Fine" Perry shrugged as he grabbed the box from off the ground. "I'll put the crib together seeing as how you might hurt your dainty little hands."
"My hands are not dainty." J.D frowned as he looked down at his hands, waving them back and forth in Perry's face. "I have man hands."
"No Darla you don't. You have the hands of a thirteen year old girl."
"Well I don't hear any complaints coming from you when they're all over you" J.D smiled as he placed his hands underneath Perry's shirt who shivered at the touch. "Do you have any complaints Perry?"
"No, I don't."
"Good, I didn't think you did" J.D said as he let go of Perry and moved back towards the crib. "Now help me put this thing together so we can plan for Jack to come over as soon as possible. I like kids so the sooner-"
Perry said nothing as he turned J.D around to kiss him again. J.D responded to the kiss and soon the two of them were making their way to their room, forgetting about the assemble of the crib.
Two hours later, the men were wrapped in soft sheets that clung to their bodies. J.D's head heavily laid on Perry's chest while in return, Perry was running his fingers through the young man's hair. It was his favorite thing to do after they would make love because he loved the way J.D's hair felt so soft and smooth. He moaned as J.D pressed his lips against his bare chest, pulling him even closer.
"Aren't you tired Daphne," Perry smirked as J.D looked up at him, smile on his face. "We've already done this three times already"
"Can't it help it if your old and can't keep up" J.D teased. "And it was really four times because you did that thing with your-"
"Alright Persephone."
"But doesn't matter because I can't do that again anyways; have an early day tomorrow" J.D sighed as he turned over in the bed; laying his head on the pillow.
"J.D" Perry whispered as he placed his hand on J.D's shoulder.
"Yeah"
"Do you think that I'll be a good dad?"
"What?" J.D replied as he turned over to face Perry. He could sense the desperation in his voice; fear not to far behind it. It was hard hearing those words flow out of his mouth because it made him very vulnerable.
"Do you think I'll be a good father?" Perry whispered again. It was one of the reasons he never wanted to have children in the first place. He never thought he would be good at raising them into respectable people. "I mean, I didn't have the best role model growing up. The only time my dad showed me affection was when he purposely missed throwing beer bottles at my head. What if I mess up, make a mistake that causes my kid to hate me for life?"
"Perry you're going to mess up, a lot." J.D smiled as wrapped his hand around Perry's waist. "And you're going to make a million mistakes a day and there will be that period of time when you're kid will hate everything from your looks to the very ground you walk on."
"This isn't helping-" Perry grumbled causing J.D to laugh at him and pull him closer.
"The point is, you're not going to be the perfect parent; no one is. You're going to make mistakes but its what you do after you make them that counts. If you learn from the mistakes that you make and show your kid all the love and affection that he needs, he will grow up fine."
"You mean it?"
"Of course I mean it." J.D laughed. "You're a good person and you're going to be an even better dad, I promise and you want to know how I know."
"How?"
"Because I'm going to be with you every step of the way."
Perry smiled as he listened to J.D's words and pulled him into a kiss. He needed those words of reassurance to let him know that he was right. It wasn't about the past because there was nothing he could do about that. All that mattered was he provided a good life for his child and those around him. He let J.D go and watched him turn over again before he closed his eyes, letting the anxiety of the day catch up with him.
J.D pulled himself away from Perry and smiled. It felt good to tell Perry just how great he would be at raising his child. He turned back over in the bed but didn't close his eyes because something new popped into his mind causing him not to be able to sleep if he didn't say it now.
"Perry" he finally whispered when he heard Perry's breathing began to even out; signaling him that he was close to being asleep.
"Yeah" he murmured as he opened his eyes. He could tell that whatever was on J.D's mind was something of the utmost importance. He needed to talk and Perry was willing to listen to whatever it was.
"Where do you think we'll be in ten years?" J.D asked. He knew the question was on the lines of being ridiculous but he needed to know. With everything that was going on in his life he needed on thing to be totally sure of; where his life with Perry would lead him.
"What do you mean by that?"
"I mean-everything is changing for both of us and with Jack in the picture things are going to be even harder." J.D sighed. "I just wanted to know where you think we will be in ten years; together or not."
Perry pulled J.D closer to him once more, and laid his chin on the shoulder. He too, had thought about the same question time and time again and he always got the same answer. "Well we'll be here, together, just like this. I really believe that."
"Yeah."
"Yeah."
"Good" J.D smiled as he turned over again and kissed Perry gently on the lips; satisfied with his answer. It was what he had wanted to hear for a long time now and he was glad to finally them. "Because this is exactly where I want to be."
"Me too Newbie, me too"
Once again thanks to everyone that reviewed it and I hoped it enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed writing it and don't worry, there will be more writing coming from me in the near future as soon as I find time to do so.
