Chapter 21: Girl's Day Out!
Christine woke up to the sound of silence as it worried her as she easily got up out of bed and went downstairs as she heard John singing to Henry as Christine smiled at her boys as her heart swelled.
"Now, time for waffles." John said as Christine snuck up behind him and started kissing his neck.
"Christine, not in front of our baby." John said jokingly.
"Mhmm... You weren't complaining last night." Christine said.
"That's because I know when to keep it down." John said as Christine's hands roamed all over his body until they reached his erection.
"Keeping it down, huh?" Christine questioned as John turned around to face her and walked her backwards until they were in a full make out session as John started kissing her throat as he untied her robe as his hands roamed over her body.
He was so close until Henry shrieked with laughter.
"I promise, we have all night after you get home from your day out with the ladies." John said, kissing her cheek as Christine tied up her robe as she easily lifted Henry out of his bouncy seat and went to feed him as John brought her plate over as well as his as they both started eating.
Christine was frustrated as ever and she knew this wouldn't be easy being a new mum but she also knew how men could be if they don't their needs met.
She couldn't stop thinking about John possibly having an affair if this issue of theirs wasn't easily resolved.
"Honey?" John questioned as he could see Christine in a deep thought.
"Sorry, I was just thinking of the day out with the ladies." Christine said as she wanted to express her feelings about what was on her mind but it wasn't easy.
"Go have fun baby, Henry and I have men stuff to do and I'll have dinner done and a bath drawn when you get home." John said as Henry stopped feeding as Christine started to burp him.
Henry cooed as he smiled and burped really loud.
"Alright baby boy, let's go have some guy time while mummy gets ready for a day out with your aunts." John said as he easily adjusted Henry into his arms.
"I'll be getting ready now and be good for daddy sweet boy and I'll be back down here in a little while my loves." Christine said as she kissed her boys as she walked upstairs and into her bedroom as she walked to her wardrobe and picked a simple but elegant outfit of a long red sleeved blouse with a pair of denim jeans and her black signature ankle boots.
She laid them out on the bed as she stared into the full length mirror as she opened her robe to take in the sight of her body.
She looked at herself as her eyes welled up with tears.
"Your body has changed, you had a baby and you knew your body would change." Christine's inner voice said.
"I know and John still loves my body and my baby boy is growing because of my breasts which feeds him all the nutrients from me." Christine said as she got in the shower to scrub away all the negative thoughts as she let the water wash away all the worry wracking her body and mind.
"You're a wife to a loving husband who loves you more than anything in this world and you're a mummy to the most beautiful little baby boy in this world and I have worked my arse off to build this life I have and this doubt is not about to get in my way, so go away and leave me alone." Christine said as she washed her hair, body and face.
Christine got out of the shower, moisturized, did her skincare, blow dried her hair and put her makeup on and dressed in her outfit as she walked downstairs to see John on the couch with Henry, snuggled up watching a penguin documentary on.
"Look how pretty mummy looks little penguin." John said as Henry beamed up at his mummy.
"I wish I didn't have to leave." Christine said as she watched Henry hold his head up to look at his parents.
"Honey, you deserve to go out and have fun. Henry and I will be here and you pumped bottles for him and we'll be fine." John said as Christine kissed John with so much emotion and John kissed her back as Henry giggled.
"I love my boys and I promise to be back as soon as I can." Christine said as she grabbed her coat, keys and purse.
"I love you so much sweetheart, go have fun and take as much time as you want to just relax with the ladies." John said as Christine hugged him so tight.
"I love you so much too baby. What did I do to deserve you?" Christine asked him.
"One night, you walked in and I have had my eyes on you baby every since, everything we have been through together has led us to our beautiful life we have now and I'm so grateful for you and our little life together." John said as Christine kissed him again.
"I'm grateful for you too sweetheart and thank you for everything from this life from being my husband to this beautiful, sometimes crazy life we have together to giving me the world and now, for our son, I love you both more than anything in this world." Christine said.
"We have been blessed sweetheart and I couldn't imagine anything else without you by my side, I love you baby and you are perfect. Now, go have fun sweetheart and go enjoy yourself." John said as he kissed her.
"Okay, now Henry be good for daddy and I love you so much baby boy." Christine said as she kissed her boys goodbye.
...
Christine pulled up to the restaurant as she loved this but felt guilty about leaving her baby at home with John but tried to get those thoughts out of her mind, the mom guilt was so real these days but she could not wait to see her ladies.
"There's our songbird!" Lori said as Christine hugged them.
"Holy hell, hot mama is in the house!" Sharon said.
"Okay, now I want to see pictures of my god baby." Stevie said.
"Well, what a welcome." Christine said as a waiter came and took their drink orders, all the ladies except Christine ordered a bottle of red wine, Christine ordered a ginger ale.
"How is everything going darling?" Lori asked Christine.
"Great! I love being a wife and a mum." Christine said.
"Honey?" Lori asked.
"It can be a little hard sometimes but I love being a mum and I have the most beautiful little baby boy in the world." Christine said.
"Honey, we understand how you feel and we're mommy's too. You can talk to us and so, let it all out." Mary said as she laid her hand on Christine's.
"Before Henry was born, John and I were both very close and it's hard to tell him how I feel because we both knew we wanted a family and I love our son so much and we would not change that for anything at all." Christine said as her eyes welled up with tears.
"Honey, it's okay to cry because when Jessica was born, I was sleep deprived and Christopher was my absolute rock through the sleepless nights and all these years later even though we're divorced, we're still good friends." Lori said.
"John is the same way through this and Henry is just two months old and we have seventeen or eighteen more years of getting to go through these precious moments together." Christine said.
"You and John are wonderful parents Christine and you two have been through a lot together but you two have so much beautiful chemistry together." Mary said.
"We are so happy and I love our little family so much. Maybe one day when Henry is older, I want to have another baby because I want Henry to have a sibling and I do want another child." Christine said as the ladies stared at each other, eating their appetizers.
"What does John say about this?" Stevie asked.
"He wants to have another baby too but later on, maybe two years from now." Christine said.
"Well honey, we'll be there for you through all the baby years." Lori said.
"I'm so happy I have you ladies and thank you for everything." Christine said.
"You're welcome honey and we'll always be here for you no matter what." Mary said.
...
The ladies went to the salon as they got their hair done along with manicures and pedicures, the whole time Christine thought about her boys and the conversation of earlier.
"I want to have another baby." Christine said to herself inside her head.
She started daydreaming and she smiled.
"Oh Mrs. McVie, your husband is such a lucky man." The nail tech said.
"He's such a great man and a great dad, I couldn't ask for a better person in my life." Christine said.
"I swear, I wish this world was full of John and Christine McVie's, the world would be a better place." Stevie said.
"Well, thank you but I like having my John all to myself and hopefully one day, if I still can, maybe have another baby McVie." Christine said as she smiled but a voice crept in again as she shrugged it off.
"Aww... I can imagine another little baby McVie running around." Stevie said.
"I can too." Lori said as she beamed proudly at Christine.
"Well, I'm waiting for Henry to get a little older because he's only two months old right now but I know I want another baby." Christine said.
"Well, we'll be there for you when you need us and if you call, we'll be there." Sharon said.
"I appreciate it girls, I really do." Christine said.
Everyone got ready to go as they all paid for their hair and nails as Christine drove home to see that her husband and son on John's chest, they had fell asleep in their bed as Christine smiled as she grabbed her Polaroid camera and took a few pictures as she laid them on the table and snuggled up to them as she loved them with all her heart.
She knew in her heart that she wanted another baby and wanted this life and nothing could ever be as perfect as her life was now as she drifted off to sleep as John woke up and seen Christine snuggled up to him, her finger grasped in between their son's little hand as he smiled and drifted back to sleep after kissing her head.
