“What are you so happy about?” Gabriella asked Joey, leaning over her seat and fussing with his hair.
“That I have you.”
“Oh.” Gabriella said, not too sure what to say. “Are you so happy to be picking things out again?” Gabriella’s questioned Joey, making him feel like a little boy again.
“I am. That’s not all I’m happy about though.”
“Oh, and what else are you so happy about?”
“Having babies.”
“Babies?”
“Yes. I want at least six.” Joey said, turning to Gabriella and giving her his bedroom eyes.
“Six?” Gabriella said, insinuating Joey was talking crazy. “Yes. Six.”
“And where are all these babies coming from?” Gabriella asked, as the thought of being pregnant and giving birth six times didn’t appeal to her.
“Your tummy.” Joey said, wondering if Gabriella needed to have the sex talk.
“You’re cute.” Gabriella said, unable to deny Joey’s dream of having six children.
“So you agree? You want a big family too?”
“I suppose. I do want to finish school though, and one day, eventually have a career.”
“You can have babies and go to school.” Joey said, although he would prefer Gabriella to be a stay at home mom.
“Well cross the bridge when we get there.”
“We’re almost there.”
“Almost where?”
“Making babies. We’ll be married in less then two months.”
Gabriella didn't respond, instead she let the conversation die out. It wasn’t ideal for her to get pregnant as soon as she and Joey were to be wed. Joey was unreasonable at times, and being he was excited over the thought of having children, Gabriella felt it best to let the conversation go for now.
Joey had as much fun registering again as he did the night before. He wasn’t as quick to add things onto the registry as he had the night before, wishing not to get on Gabriella's nerves. Gabriella, aware Joey wanted to keep the house he was building a suprise for her, and not knowing the color of the tiles in the kitchen or the applicanes, let Joey pick out the colors to the mini applicances they were registering for, and she was the one to pick out the makes and models. Gabriella also selected her pots and pans, choosing Teflon and letting Joey choose between dark gray or the black for the color. Joey chose the black, matching to the other appliances he had already selected. Gabriella hoped the kitchen wasn’t a black and white kitchen, she would prefer a lighter color kitchen, and anxiousness started to brew inside of her in regards to the details of the home, Joey wished to keep for her.
When they were all through selecting items for their soon to be home, they went home and again went straight to bed. Gabriella knew Joey was beat from his day, but that didn't stop himself from wanting to have her again. He absolutely wanted her each and every night for the rest of his life. Gabriella took control in the bedroom, to show Joey a new side of her that was growing with their love. As Gabriella made love to Joey, he became so lost in their love making, he felt his soul slide into paradise.
Chapter Nineteen
When they woke up the next morning, Joey decided to bypass the gym. He wanted to make love to Gabriella the way she had to him the night before. Joey’s kisses lead them both back to the magical state they had experienced the night before. When they were done, Joey made a said face.
“What’s wrong, peachypoo?” Gabriella asked him, in respect to the face he had made.
“You got your period.” Joey said, showing Gabriella his hand covered in her blood.
Gabriella was comforted because she didn’t want to get pregnant before her wedding. It wasn’t about the likelihood of starting to show, but rather more about the tradition of not wanting children out of wedlock.
“And your upset?” Gabriella asked, thinking back to their conversation last night.
“Yes.”
“Well we do use condoms, what did you expect?”
“I was hoping I got your pregnant while we were in the shower.” “We’ll have babies, when the time is right.”
“I know.” Joey said, standing out of bed, and then using the sink in the bathroom to wash his hands.
Gabriella got up too, wanting to make sure there wasn’t blood on the bed sheets. She then met Joey in the bathroom, and stepped into the shower to wash her own blood from her. Joey hopped into the shower with her.
“I’m only rising off.” Gabriella said, in reference to Joey joining her in the shower.
“I was already naked.”
“Oh, ok.” Gabriella said, able to sense Joey was upset. “It’s just that our love making is so deep and intimate, I was hoping for a consistent reminder of it.” Joey said, without even being asked why he was so upset.
“We’re not ready for a baby, Joey.”
“Sure we are.”
“Our love making will always be special and intimate, I promise, as soon as we’re ready, we’ll have a baby.”
“You promise?” Joey asked, cleaning the blood from his dick, while the rest of him was dry.
He then hopped out of the shower with Gabriella. “I promise. I want your babies.” Gabriella said, and then gave Joey an assuring kiss on the cheek.
“You do?”
“Of course! I’m marrying you, aren’t I?”
One of the reason’s, Gabriella had said yes to marrying Joey, was because she thought they would make beautiful children together.
“So we can start tonight?” Joey asked, giving Gabriella his bedroom eyes again.
“No.”
“On our wedding night?”
“We’ll see.” Gabriella said, after she placed a tampon inside of her to stop the blood.
“Hey that’s mine.”
“What’s yours?”
“This.” Joey said, pulling slightly on the tampon string proposing he didn’t want anything other then him inside of Gabriella. “Can we share it?”
“Fine. I guess so.”
“Thanks.” Gabriella said, sarcastically.
She then gave Joey a kiss on the lips, he went in for a deeper kiss, and then she lightly pushed him off. “Get ready for work. I’ll go make you something to eat.”
“Oh fine.” Joey said, as he would rather be making babies.
Joey was in a bad mood when he got to work. Expect for the three workers he had been working with on the master bedroom with him, his workers mostly latched away from him. His mood absorbed happier when he suddenly received a call from the jewelry shop where he had Gabriella’s engagement ring made. They asked for him to come in and sign a contract in regards to selling his design. He told them he would be there on his lunch hour tomorrow, not knowing how Gabriella would adhere to the news and incorporated he better tell her about it over dinner tonight before he witnessed and signed the contract
Gabriella spent her day thinking how nice it would be to have a baby to care for. She had been obliquely finding it hard to occupy her time latterly. Gabriella thought long and hard about every aspect of the situation. She didn’t want to have children until Joey’s business picked up and his hours lessened. Ideally, she would like to complete school first, but knew she would never be able to hold Joey off for two years. Gabriella got to thinking about her dreams of being a CEO, one dream she could perchance let go from her life for Joey. She did after all enjoy the idea of having a man to care for her, but she thought if Joey wanted such a big family, she wouldn’t have the time to be a big shot chief executive officer, while also giving her children the time and attention they deserved. She wouldn’t want her children in daycare, and knew Joey would never approve the idea. Gabriella got used to the idea of being a stay at home mom, and started to grow happy, Joey would one day be able to care for her and their family, and she wouldn’t even have to work. Besides, Joey had already had his own company, and she knew he would have no problem if she wanted to step in and help it grow.
When Joey got home from work, Gabrie
lla was in a good mood, singing and dancing in the kitchen.
“What are you in such a good mood for?” Joey asked, noticing Gabriella dancinh.
“That I have you.” Gabriella said, still lost in her thoughts from today and their one day family.
“Oh?” Joey said, raising one eyebrow thinking Gabriella had sex on her mind.
“Yup.”
“How come?” Joey asked, wanting more information. “Sit down and I'll tell you.” Gabriella said, sitting Joey down to eat.
While Joey and Gabriella ate, she told him her new dreams, she too wanted a big, loving family. She professed she still wanted to compelete her bachelors degree, but figured she would use the knowledge to help Joey manage his company. Joey was delighted after Gabriella shared her new dreams of their future with him. In the sum of what Gabriella had told him, in his mind, she was arranging in agreement to be a stay at home mom.
Joey found the time to tell Gabriella how the jeweler wanted to carry his ring design at all six of his jewelry shops. She was charmed at the news and was even proud of Joey. Joey insisted Gabriella was one of a kind and everyone else would be a copycat of the original, causing her to feel special being he hadn’t just meant the ring.
After dinner, Gabriella and Joey cuddled tightly in bed. Gabriella refused to have sex with Joey since she had her period. Joey insisted and Gabriella told him they could make love tomorrow, when her period wasn’t as heavy. That wasn’t enough for Joey, ushering Gabriella out of bed to lay down a towel so the sheets wouldn’t get dirty. Gabriella couldn’t deny Joey sex, after all, they were both in their sexual primes. To Joey, love making brought them closer, and he knew sex gave Gabriella a piece of attachement to him. He couldn't ask for anything more from life, then for Gabriella to be attached to him for as long as they lived.
Incited, worked up and bothered, Joey placed himself above Gabriella. He held tightly to Gabriella’s back, inside her, pleased, and not caring too much about the rest of her body, feeling an aroma of ecstatic for simply being inside of her. He centered himself, in perfect position to be in center of her vagina. He wanted to hit it hard, but knew if he did, he would cum instantly from the pleasure. He started slowed and became gentle, but Gabriella could sense what she really wanted, asking him, ‘please faster.’ Joey adhered her request, hitting her hard and fast till he came.
Gabriella giggled afterward, she too had came, though their love making had been brief. Gabriella couldn't help but realize, Joey was her perfect lover. Gabriella retorted before falling asleep, she would be faithful, for the eternity that follows. Joey too, felt feelings of forever.
Chapter Twenty
Over breakfast the next morning, Gabriella showed Joey the kitchen dish set she wanted in her mother's catalog. Gabriella didn’t do so to ask for his admiration on the design, which he adored anyway, she had shown him just in case he wanted to register for more then what she had marked off. Joey marked off the salt and pepper shakers, stunned Gabriella hadn’t seen them as a necessity to have being they matched their same print. Joey also marked off a few serving dishes Gabriella had missed. Joey thought about how big the kitchen was and the amount of cabinets so he added on from Gabriella’s idea of twelve dishes to twentyfour. Joey’s cognition for so many dishes was, he wanted them to have enough for when they hosted holidays, which Gabriella already enlightened him, this was the set they would be using. Gabriella told him, she was ordering the bare necessities and reckoned they would order more as they grew. Joey asked ‘as what grew?’ and Gabriella smiled replying, ‘us silly.’
Joey left for the gym in a good mood., and when he pulled into the gym parking lot, he noticed that Gavin was there again this morning. When Joey got inside the gym, he threw his bag with his work clothes into a locker, locking it with his combination lock he bought for the purpose of going to the gym. He then walked over to Gavin with the bottle of water Gabriella had thoughtfully packed for him. Joey had a smile on his face when he reached Gavin. Gavin was in the middle of doing a set on the bench press and didn’t have a spotter. Joey stood behind him and started spotting him.
“Oh you’re here. I was wondering about you.” Gavin said, laying the bench press down in its holder. He then stood up to spot Joey on the bench press.
Joey laid down at the bench press.
“Yeah man. I need to keep in shape for Gabriella or she won’t be all over me any more.”
“You’re crazy Joey.”
“Only about Gabriella.”
“That’s what I meant. You know the novelty of things being new wears off, the sex lessens, and then you’re stuck.”
“Things aren’t going well with Sadie?”
“Nah, things are wonderful, but there’s nothing like the first few months.”
“Well I plan for me and Gabriella to keep things going in bed.” Joey said, placing the bar back in its holder.
Joey then stood up to give Gavin back the bench press so he could do another set.
“How do you plan on doing that?” Gavin asked, laying down. “Having babies.”
“Man, I heard babies ruin your sex life even more then marriage does.”
“Not if your constantly trying to make them.”
“How many kids do you want?”
“How many can a woman have in her life time?”
“Man. You’re sick.” Gavin replied, finishing with his set. “Gabriella is way too good looking not to procreate.” Joey said, that being his prime reason for wanting children with her. “Whatever.” Gavin said, having enough of baby talk.
While Joey was doing a second set on the bench press, he was off thinking in his head what his and Gabriella’s children would breed to look like. Gavin paid little attention to Joey while he was off in his head being he was used to that. He too started to think of children and when he and Sadie would have children of their own.
When Joey was done, they both laid on mats next to each other to do their abs. Gavin pushed Joey hard having him increase his set by ten.
“Ouch.” Joey said, when they were finally done with their ab routine.
“Get used to it.” Gavin said, suggesting Joey would be sticking to the increase of ten in his set.
“Fine.” Joey said, thinking he already had a well-defined six pack, but knowing muscles stop responding to the same repetition after awhile.
“I’m going to run on the treadmill.” Gavin announced. “You coming?”
“I’ll be over there in a few. I want to work out my arms a little more.” Joey said, walking away to the barbells.
“All right man.” Gavin said, leaving Joey to do a few reps.
Joey then made his way over to the treadmill next to Gaving.
“I can only do a fifteen minute run today.” Joey announced. “Oh.”
“Yeah work calls.”
Gavin and Joey didn’t speak much throughout their run. They were both watching music videos on the televisions placed at each of their machines. Joey was alerted to how the girls danced in the videos, wondering if Gabriella ever thought to try to become a professional dancer. If she did have that dream, it would be long gone by now, as he expected to try to start getting her pregnant on their wedding night. Joey finished up his run on the treadmill, said goodbye to Gavin, got dressed quick and headed off to work.
After Joey left for work, Gabriella went straight online to register for her kitchen dish set. She was reluctant to put in an order for two sets of dishes, but did so anyway. She decided if she was getting a second set of dishes she mine as well get a second set of coffee cups and saucers too. Gabriella finished out the rest of the order, placing the other items in the online wish basket. When she was finally done, it was only eight in the morning. Gabriella got to thinking how nice it would be to have a baby to care for. She was growing as enthralled over the idea of having children and being a house wife as much as Joey already had been.
Gabriella worked out for an hour, took a shower and prepared herself to go to the bridal shop with Mary
and Becky. They were meeting there at twelve and since it was only eleven when she was done, she decided to check her facebook. Seeing quickly, she had a message from Jemma. The message read; ‘I’m so sorry I did that to you. I don’t know what I was thinking. I just wanted Vinny so bad and you had turned him down, I didn’t know you still wanted him, so I saw no big deal in convincing him to come home with me. I didn’t sleep with him Saturday night if that’s what you and the other girls think. He merely gave me a ride home because I was so upset that Joey had called me a whore and you told me how dirty I am. I just didn’t want to be around anyone. Vinny wasn’t interested in Josephine anyway. He told me he was only using her to get the chance to hang out with you. I hope you can forgive me.’
When Gabriella was through reading Jemma’s message, she laughed to herself and though she wanted nothing more to do with Jemma, she decided to write back.
‘I’m over the Vinny thing. If anything you did me a favor he disgusts me. I have Joey now anyway. Whom I heard you’re trying to keep me from marrying? Good luck with that one’.
Gabriella was pleased with her response, she wanted Jemma to recognize, although she could forgive her for the Vinny incident, she now knew her devious plan to see to it that she and Joey wouldn not be wed. Gabriella wanted Jemma to know there was little prospect for their friendship after that.
Gabriella then kept to her plans of meeting Mary and Becky at the bridal shop to be fitted for the bridal dresses, Gabriella had previously selected earlier in the week. Gabriella and Mary rode together to the bridal shop, being they were both in the driveway at the same time, sharing a good laugh because they didn’t plan on going together in the first place. Gabriella admitted, it hadn’t crossed her mind because she guessed Mary was meeting at the shop, coming from Franks place.
The two sisters met Becky at the bridal shop promptly at noon. Mary was the first to try on the dark purple dress Gabriella thought would suit her nicely. The dress looked lovely over Mary's curves, and Mary herself was delighted her sister picked out a good-looking dress. Her sister soon realized that Gabriella was no bridezilla, when she saw Becky come out of the fitting room in her dress.
