Chapter 104

(a week later)

"So, what are you going to do today?" Libby asks.

"Oh, sorry. I was dazing." AJ says.

"What are you going to do today?" Libby asks again.

"I don't know. The same as always I guess. Stay home with the babies." AJ says smiling.

"How's Suzy?" Nick asks.

"You'd think after having twins she'd be drained...but she's actually pretty energetic." AJ says.

"So where is she?" Libby asks.

"Oh, she's in the room asleep." AJ says not even realizing the humor in it.

Libby and Nick look at each other funny.

(Howie and Kevin's place)

Tiffany and Shena are there visiting.

Shena stretches and yawns.

"What's wrong with you?" Kevin asks.

"Oh nothing. I mean, it's not like I should be tired after staying up all night with you and now having to go over to my place and clean." Shena says with a smirk.

"Oh shut up you brat." Kevin says stretching.

"Yeah, shut her up. I'm trying to sleep." Howie says laying his head back down in the chair.

He is hold Tiffany, who is already asleep.

"I can't believe we stayed away all night." Kevin mumbles.

"Well, I guess I better go home." Shena says starting to get up off the couch.

"Don't even think about it. You are too tired to drive; and I know you won't get any cleaning done. Just lean on me and go to sleep." Kevin says.

"My beds more comfortable." Shena says laying back against Kevin.

"She's right. I guess we should go back to bed." Howie says.

Howie looks down at Tiffany who is laying in his lap now.

"I'm guessing you're going to be nice enough not to wake her up." Shena says.

"Of course, I'm going to carry her. Sheesh woman." Howie says slowly getting up and moving Tiffany.

After Howie's stood up, he slowly picks Tiffany up and carries her down the hall.

"Your turn beautiful." Kevin says.

"What?" Shena asks.

Kevin picks her up and carries her down the hall.

(Brian and Sarah)

Brian and Sarah are sitting in Brian's apartment watching MTV's TRL.

"Well, I guess we have decide something here." Brian says.

"What's that?" Sarah asks.

"You know it's kinda pointless for us to have two apartments when we're only using one." Brian says.

"What are you trying to say?" Sarah asks.

"I want to know if you'll move in with me." Brian says.

Sarah's jaw drops.

"Well, will you? Sarah will you move in with me?" Brian asks.

"Wow, this is like... a major jump in our relationship. I mean, this is kind of a serious jump." Sarah says.

"Does that mean you don't want to?" Brian asks.

"No, no, no. That's not what I said. I'm just asking if you're sure you're ready for this...that it's not a spontaneous." Sarah says.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time. It seems like the right choice. So will you?" Brian asks.

Sarah looks at him for a long time.

(AJ and my place)

I hear Libby laughing as I slowly open my eyes. I look around the room for a minute; I'm still getting used to the idea that we live in a new place.

"Hey stop that you little..." I hear Nick say from the nursery.

"I wonder what they're up to." I say getting off the bed slowly.

I walk out of the bedroom and start to go to the nursery but I stop. I see Libby holding the babies. Nicks standing behind her with his arms around her waist, peaking over her shoulder at them. I can't help but smile at them. I decide that I'll leave them alone for a while and go check on AJ.

I walk into the living room where MTV's TRL was on. AJ is laying on his stomach on the couch. His arm is handing off the couch and his eyes are closed.

I walk over to him and squat down on the ground in front of his face. He must be really asleep cause he does feel my presence (or is so used to my presence that it doesn't phase him).

I lean over and softly kiss his cheek; just barely touching the side of his lips. (for short minded (Libby j/k) that's half on the lips half on the cheek). He slowly begins to stir, but then goes back to sleep.

I think: 'What a brat.' So I lean over and blow in his ear softly; then kiss his ear. He starts to stir again. This time he opens his eyes sleepily.

"Oh, hey." AJ says softly.

"Plan on sleeping the day away?" I ask smiling.

"I don't know what it is with everyone. It's like everyone's allowed to take naps except me." AJ say.

"Oh sweetie...if you want to take a nap, go in the bedroom and lay down." I say.

"I'm too tired to get up." AJ says closing his eyes again.

I tug on his hand and say, "Come on, go in the bedroom. You'll be more comfortable there. I'll even help you."

AJ slowly gets up from the couch. I put my arm around him and we walk to the bedroom.

"What's wrong with him?" I hear Nick ask from the nursery.

"He's just really tired." I say closing the door behind us.

AJ collapses on the bed.

"Baby, didn't you get enough sleep last night?" I ask.

"I thought I did; but I didn't I guess." AJ says as I pull the blankets over him.

"There, isn't that more comfortable?" I ask.

"Yeah." AJ says smiling.

"Hun, why did you even get up? You could have stayed in bed with me." I say.

"Nick and Libby came over. I had to let them in." AJ says.

"Well, you could have went back to bed after that silly." I say.

AJ blinks his eyes tiredly.

I give him a kiss on the cheek, "Sweet dreams."

"Always do." AJ say rolling over on his side.

I walk out of the room and close the door.

(Brian and Sarah)

"Well, Sarah, are you going to answer?" Brian asks.

Sarah stares at him blankly.

"Earth to Sarah...hello? You OK?" Brian asks.

"Oh, sorry. I was just thinking." Sarah says.

"Are you going to move in with me?" Brian asks.

"Well, I had been thinking about it for a long time too. And..." Sarah says.

"And?" Brian asks.

"I'd love to." Sarah says smiling.

"Really? That's great!" Brian says hugging here.

"So, when am I moving in?" Sarah asks.

"Whenever you want. We can start moving your stuff today if you want." Brian says.

"OK. First I want to go visit Howie, Kevin, Shena, and Tiffany. They're at Howie and Kevin's." Sarah says.

"OK, I need to go talk to AJ though." Brian says.

"Well, we can stop by AJ's first. It's on the way." Sarah says.

"OK." Brian says.

"Wanna go now?" Sarah asks.

Brian opens the front door, "Lets go."

(Later that day)

I'm in the living room doing my workout video. AJ, who finally got done sleeping, walks into the room.

"I swear, it's been a month since you had those babies and you never take a rest." AJ says.

"What are you talking about. I had to rest for three weeks in the hospital. I need to get back into shape." I say doing sit ups.

I get up off the ground and get ready to do some stretches. AJ grabs me and pulls me back on him on the couch.

"AJ stop, I have to stretch or my muscles will tighten up and crap." I say struggling with him.

"Oh, I can loosen you up." AJ says.

"Sorry babe. Doctor said we have to wait six to eight weeks; it's only been four." I say getting up.

AJ pouts.

There's a knock at the door. AJ looks at me and realizes that I'm not getting it.

"Don't stop...I'll get it." He says sarcastically.

I stick my tongue out at him.

"Hold that thought for just a minute." AJ says running to the door.

I laugh.

AJ opens the door and sees Sarah standing there looking pretty pissed.

"What's wrong?" AJ asks.
