night time talks

Carrie pov





Carrie was woken by the sounds of Kelly tapping away at her laptop beside her in the bed. Looking at the clock she realised it was 9am.



'You know...most people sleep in late after a night of great sex......' Carrie gave her wife a wink.



'Got an idea.....' Kelly said in between typing. ' had to get it out or it will drive me crazy.....'



'Ok...'Carrie accepted the reason, her eyes following Kelly's hands carefully. She couldn't believe last night had happened, it had been so long Carrie had almost forgot how good it was being with her wife. By the calm look on Kelly's face as she typed she knew they had turned a corner, if only they could keep it that way.



'So i'm coming on tour with you...'Kelly said as she shut the lap top.



'Yea...'Carrie said excitedly.



'Yea....'Kelly lay down so they were face to face. 'But I want one thing from you.'



'Anything.'



'I want a tour bus to ourselves.....'



'Our own tour bus?..'Carrie asked.



'Yes...no band no management and no assistants........and I want my driver to take us....Marty knows when to give us privacy.......' Carrie nodded along with what Kelly was saying.



'I don't see that being a problem......but.....' Carrie watched as Kelly sighed.



'But what?.....'



'Ashley......she's coming.....i can't expect her to stay on a bus alone with everyone else with the baby......'



'I'll talk to Ashley.......she and Jason can stay here while we're away....they shouldn't be taking a new born on tour anyway......Ashley will understand...'



'Ok.....'Carrie agreed.



'I just feel we need a little bit of a normal life........we need to be like other married couples.....as normal as possible.......' Carrie could feel her heart skip a beat, she wanted the same, she wanted the normal life too. It just amazed her that Kelly was putting herself out there so much.



'So just the two of us......And Marty of course.....'Kelly giggled.



'Yea......you can go on stage at night and I can have your dinner ready on the bus every night....no late parties.......just us.....'



'Yea....'Carrie smiled. ' but.....Will Marty be cooking the dinner you will have ready for me every night?.......'



'I'll order out.....'Kelly said a little to quickly.



'Better.....'Carrie leaned in giving her wife as small kiss, there was still a wall between them but Carrie could feel it starting to crumble.





Kelly's pov.





Kelly was feeling good about everything around her, Jason and Ashley seemed to be getting along. The baby even though he didn't have a name seemed to be happy and content with the fact that he was stuck with his parents for the next eighteen years and things with Carrie were calmer. There hadn't been a bad word said between them all morning and Kelly was beginning to feel close to her wife again. But that didn't stop her from signing into the chat room and waiting for the name to appear. She didn't have to wait long before they signed in.





Tx101-(Hey)



Lonelywife-(and how are u?)



Tx101-(Good today)



Tx101-(u?)



Lonelywife-(it's been a good day so far)



Lonelywife-(still a long way before it's over though)



Tx101-(tell me about ur first fight with ur husband)



Kelly frowned at the screen, they had been chatting more and more about personal things lately.



Lonelywife-(why?)



Tx101-(i guess I just like hearing about u)



Lonelywife-(our first fight was a silly one.)



Tx101-( tell me it)





Flashback.





Kelly lay flat on her stomach on the floor as Carrie tried her best to concentrate on the thing in front of her.



'I can't do it with you doing that....'Carrie pointed out.



'Im not doing anything.....'



'Your humming......it's distracting.....'



'Sorry...ill stop.....' Kelly looked back down to the board. 'You gonna move any time soon?'



'I thinking....'Carrie snapped. It was their first Christmas eve living together and they had decided to stay up late and play scrabble, bad idea for Carrie, turns out Kelly is very good at it. ' ok got it...'Carrie placed her letters down as she smiled at Kelly.



'That's not a word....'Kelly said as she slid the letters back to Carrie.



'Yes it is.....'Carrie said pushing them back.



'What does it say then?'' Kelly pushed.



'Badunkadunk........'



'Use it in a sentence......'



'My girlfriend as the best badunkadunk.......' Carrie let out a loud laugh as Kelly sat shocked. 'Come on....you asked.'



'Yea well it's not a word....so take the letters back......'



'No.....it's in the urban dictionary on line....so im keeping it.....' Kelly stood.



'No.....if you can't play with rules you shouldn't play at all....' Kelly marched from the room leaving Carrie alone.



'So I win then?..' Carrie shouted after her.

Carrie's pov





Carrie sat looking at the computer screen as Kelly typed, she couldn't believe Kelly remembered that night. She had been so mad at Carrie. Carrie was sure their christmas was ruined but thankfully things improved later that night.





Flashback





Carrie walked back passed the closed bedroom once more, she had been doing it all night hoping her girlfriend would hear her and invite her in. The plan didn't seem to be working. She was wishing now she had let her girlfriend win the stupid game maybe now they would be snuggled up together in bed waiting for christmas to arrive. Deciding to be brave Carrie slipped into the room causing Kelly to look up.



'Oh looks it's the scrabble cheater......'



'I didn't cheat.,.....im just not clear on the rules.......'



'Scrabble is very important to me........you know that.....'Carrie shook her head.



'Are we really having a fight about scrabble.......our first fight is about scrabble....'Carrie reminded.



'Not my fault....'Kelly said pouting. ' you should have played the game right and we wouldnt be fighting.'



'So when is our first fight over cause I want to go to bed......'



'Then go.....but this fight isn't over........'



'Kelly it's scrabble.....'Kelly lay down rolling on her side.



'You just dont understand......'



'I dont....'Carrie answered as she got into bed. Kelly quickly turned the light off keeping her back to her girlfriend.



'You should understand......i thought you knew me.....' Kelly whispered.



'Please dont make this into a big deal......'Carrie begged.



'Let's just sleep.....' Carrie lay in the dark on her back watching as Kelly tossed and turned. She knew the shorter blond wasn't happy about going to sleep angry but she couldnt do anything about it. She knew if she tried to talk to Kelly again she would turn it into a bigger fight that it was. So carrie waited. It didn't take long, she felt her girlfriend turn around to face her. carrie watched for a moment before speaking.



'You ok?'



'Hold me?.....'It was more of a statement that a question but Carrie did as she was told. Taking Kelly into her arms she smiled as the shorter blond sighed lazily. Carrie lifted her head to look at the clock.



'Kelly.......'



Yea?'



'It's christmas......' Kelly lifted her head to look at the clock.



'Merry Christmas....'She smiled.



Merry Christmas.....' Carrie replied as she caught her girlfriends lips with her own.
