Chapter 8
Grant's POV
I wake up and look at my phone and scroll through twitter reading my birthday wishes from fans then I check my text messages from my friends and family I have one message asking if I want to hang out today while they are in town I reply and let them know that I can then I get up and get dressed and start walking downstairs.
Mallory's POV
I look up when Grant walks in the kitchen "Hey warbler happy birthday." "Thanks babe." He walks over and kisses me and I kiss back then wrap my arms around his neck and he wraps his arms around my waist "So about your birthday?" "Yeah some of my friends are in town and I'm going out with them I won't be back until later on tonight if that's okay with you." "Yeah its fine go out and have fun." "Thanks babe." He kisses my head then walks out the door I sigh then lay the small box on the counter that contains his present and I leave the baking the cake for later I walk over and sit on the couch and I start feel the baby kicking me I put my hand over the places I feel the kicks "Yeah mommy wished he would have stayed with us too."
Kevin's POV
I walk downstairs with Kevina in my arms and we are greeted by Vanessa pacing back and forth in front of the TV "Sweetie is everything okay?" "I feel like I forgot something I just don't know what it is." "Well it isn't our anniversary, Kevina's birthday, my birthday or Mallory's birthday so that should help narrow it down for you." She keeps pacing back and forth in front of the TV "What about your parents?" "It isn't their birthday either and I know all of the birthdays for the boys so I'm not forgetting that." "Do you know when Grant's birthday is?" "That's it Mal said his birthday is today I completely forgot about it. "It's early Mal and Grant might still be at home if you want to tell him." "They might have plans I'll just call them later on." Then she walks over "Good morning Angel come see mommy then she takes Kevina and starts giving her a bottle." I take in the moment with my family watching Vanessa have a full conversation with Kevina who can't answer her yet and I think to myself that there is nothing that could make me want to give these two up.
Grant's POV
The whole time I'm out I don't check my phone or call home once and I remember what it feels like to be able to go out and have fun again and I start missing parts of it and I think that maybe things went a little fast between Mallory and I because here I was at twenty six fixing to be a dad in two more months and when the baby got here I wouldn't be able to do stuff like this anymore. Its late when I get home almost two in the morning and I stop when I get in the kitchen sitting on the counter is a cake with a small box sitting next to it I walk over and open the box and pull out a small kitchen and I feel like a jerk right away written on the keychain are the words forever my superman and I start regretting every feeling I had earlier because I wouldn't change a single thing that has happened between us. I cover up the cake then walk upstairs to our room and she is curled up on my side of the bed sleeping and she's holding the toy lion I won her when we went to the fair. I kick off my shoes then pull of my shirt and jeans then gently pry the lion out of her arms and get in bed with her. She curls up next to me and wakes up when she realizes I'm back "Hey you're home." "I'm so sorry babe I should have been with you and now I wish I had been with you and I love your present I just feel bad that I wasn't your superman today." She looks up at me and even in the dark I can see her green eyes sparkling "You're always my superman warbler." Then she lifts up her head and kisses me I kiss back and run my hands down her back then her hands go in my hair and she gives it a sharp tug, this part being with her was the best part of my birthday and I hope I'm able to be her superman.
