Knuckleball (Closed)

"A game which I might get more minutes again. You can come if you want there's always a seat." He said while his hands caressed her back. "What about you I know you can't do much, but that won't stop you from trying."

"I don't want to fight either it's just we have issues." He said while driving to where she was. "I'm on way can we pretend this never happened. I still want to marry you if it's with a wedding or at the courthouse."
 
"Sure ill come to the game. I don't have anything to do... I should start looking for a new job...." She sighed "I'm not sure where to start."

"I don't want to marry you if it's going to be like this though." Natasha said "I don't want my child having to grow up with this...."
 
"You can look on my laptop for job opening." He said pushing the hair out of her face. "Is it okay if we lay in bed for a bit."

"It won't be like this it's just a rough passage. Plus this isn't your baby, I'm as much as responsible for that baby as you are." He proclaimed as he saw her car in the distance.
 
"Yeah. That's fine with me." Bella said curling up to him "so why do you want to stay in bed?" She asked.

"Then when are things going to change?" She asked "when will everything get better. I don't want this child moving between two houses with parents who don't love each other but I don't want all this fighting either."
 
"It's a nice and relaxing morning. I just want to enjoy it a little." He said as he got comfortable. He was hoping the ring order got in and it would be ready by game time. "You really want to get married don't you."

"I don't know before the baby comes. We have to work together and not fight all the time... I never said I didn't love you." He hanged up the phone pulling over to knock on her window.
 
"If I said yes then that would ruin the surprise when you propose." She said "it'll be awhile before you do, won't it?" She asked.

She sighed opening the car door "do you really think we can get past it? Fix everything? Be happy?" She asked as she stepped out of the car "can we do this?"
 
"No it wouldn't ruin besides I don't even have a ri..." He cutoff his own words to add a little doubt in her mind when he would purpose. "I'll get one eventually maybe on our way to my parents house."

"I think we can it's not impossible. I want our child to have a better childhood than we both have had. With that said it needs two loving parents in the same home not separate." He held her hand bringing her closer to him. "I'm glad your safe."
 
"We'll if your planning on proposing at your parents house than you've completely ruined the surprise." She said sighing "at least it'll just be something small without a ton of people around."

"We messed up." Natasha said "I think we shouldn't get married. You where right, I can't promise we won't get divorced... I think this baby deserves better than this, better than us..."
 
He smiled on the inside that she would now know where the fake proposal will be, but also needed to plant more seeds into his plan to not doubt her. "You know where I'm purposing not when. I could do it there family dinner or when we're alone in the room at midnight. So you will still be surprised." He did wonder how she would fare at being purpose at the stadium in front of other people.

"This baby will get the parents he or she deserve in us though. Look we have a lot of stress which we don't need. With our relationship, the wedding, baby, and anything else that will come our way. Look I still want to get married, but how about we postpone the wedding until after the baby arrives. Then we'll have time and we can get stuff done without fighting."
 
Bella smiled "it would be pretty romantic if it was in the middle of the night with just the two of us." She said "seems like you may have planned the perfect proposal, it's just too bad that you couldn't keep it a secret. So I guess it's just waiting now..."

"No. We would just be postponing what we know is going to happen. I think we need to figure out what to do with the baby, because I don't think that there is an us... We've just been lying to ourselves." Natasha started crying "I love you Anthony but I can't be your wife..."
 
"It's still going to be prefect don't worry." He said smiling at her. "Maybe I'll wait until you forget then propose if you want." He smiled leaning closer to her and gave her a lengthy kiss. "I love you."

"Natasha don't..." He was cutoff as she began sobbing. "I love you. Natasha we were meant for each other." He hugged her again. "I want you to be my wife. Look your right we need to focus on the baby. That doesn't mean their's not an us."
 
"I just want something small and romantic..." She said "I'm not sure that I'll forget... I'll try though." Bella said smiling "I love you too."

"No, there is no us. There is a baby who needs parents." She sighed "we can't give him parents who are together because we just don't work as an actual couple. We are great when it's just some hook ups but that's it, the rest is just fighting."
 
They were still in bed, but he wasn't worrying about it. He had a game later, she was happy and smiling. "When you say small and romantic are you suggesting that for a wedding, too?" He said with a smile.

He hanged his head down low, she was right about everything. "I don't want this baby to go from house to house. We both want the baby to have loving parents and a better life than ours." A car passed by reminding him they were arguing on the side of a road. "Let's go home we can talk at home."
 
"Yes. I think it would be nice." She said "wouldn't you? Or are you into the more big and flashy type of wedding?"

"I'll follow you." She said as she got into her car and turned it on. She waited for him to get into his and start driving off before she started driving behind him.
 
"No actually it would be kind of nice. I have never been into big and flashy." He lied now back peddling on his idea on proposing her in front of the crowd during halftime. "I love thinking about us being husband and wife."

He walked back to his turning it on and driving back home. Looking in the rearview to see if she was still following him. Ever since they got engage things have turned sour, who was he to put a child thru that. He pulled up to driveway wondering what would happen behind close doors.
 
"Your lying..." She said sitting up "you want big and flashy." She took a deep breath "I'm sure we could come up with some sort of compromise. Maybe a small, romantic proposal for me and a big and flashy wedding for you."

When she reached done house she quickly walked in. "So what do we do? We can't put this child through something awful just because we are selfish. I think we should decide on one of us to keep the baby..."
 
"Ok I guess your right I'm not a very good liar I'm I." Ken said sitting up with her. "I like that idea, but we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves your proposal first then work on the wedding later. Deal?"

"Are you kidding me Natasha you want one of us to raise the child. I don't want our kid to suffer I agree with you completely. We can't have the kid hate or not like one of us more than the other. What about couple counseling?" He asked.
 
"Deal." She said kissing his cheek "do you want to stay in bed longer?" Bella asked "or do you have something else to do?"

"Couple counseling is for couples. We aren't a couple." She said taking the ring out of her pocket and handing it to him once again. "We are two people who had sex and are now having baby. Who thought we could get married but can't."
 
"I'm fine with stayin in bed my game isn't until later tonight. Do you want to get out of bed?" He said. "Only if we can keep talking like this."

"We're a dysfunctional couple not just two people who only fuck. Yes that was the foundation, but I have loved and cared about you more than anyone in my whole life." He didn't take the ring just placing it on the table. "That ring is your's you keep it."
 
"Let's just stay in bed." She said laying back down and getting comfortable "so did you have anything else that you wanted to talk about?" She asked.

Natasha walked away. She went upstairs and for out her suitcase and started to pack her clothing.
 
"Ok..." He said as he got back in bed with her. "As for the talking I have a question. Before I came along did you ever think about getting married?"

He got angry as she walked upstairs to get her clothes he followed. Taking the clothes out of her case as she put more. "Your not leaving." He grabbed her in his arms and kissed her not letting go of her.
 
"I thought about it... I thought it would be nice but I wasn't really sure that I would ever find anyone I wouldcwantctovspend the rest of my life with." Bella said "what about you?"

"Stop it." She said trying to push him away "what are you doing?" Natasha said as she pulled away from him and started picking up the clothes he had taken out.
 
"The same way more than less I thought about getting married and well you know how that went, but I never had any doubts about trying again." He said looking at her with a smile. "I know we are going to make it. What about kids how long do you want to wait before trying?"

He grabbed her again with a tighter grip, but not trying to hurt her. "I told you I love you. Your not leaving this house. I don't want to force you to stay, but you don't have a place to go, too."
 
"I haven't really thought about that..." She said "I guess I'd want to wait a little while at least. There really isn't a reason to rush. When do you want kids?" She asked "and be honest."

"Let me go. I'll go live with my parents if I have to." She said waiting for him to release her "I need to get away from this. You don't love me." She said upset "your lying."
 
"In a few years I don't really know in 2 to 3 years just before my career ends so I can provide you know." He said as he never thought about a time period on when. "Are you scared about having a baby?"

"I'm not letting you go. Your just acting delusional Natasha. I'm not going to drive to another city when ever I want to see my kid. I love you that has never been a lie." He said obviously getting angry again. "I'm tried of your bad emotions getting in the way of our relationship."
