“He can have a mohawk.” She sighed, smirking all the while. Sure, she’d prefer if their son kept his father’s curly hair for longer than his dad did, but if Noah wanted him to have a hawk, she wasn’t going to argue with him. After all, she did want a mini Puck. And he was right, they were going to be the best parents ever because they were going to take the mistakes that Shelby and his dad made and learn from them. Their child would have the best life ever. Especially with two famous parents. She was sure of it. “It doesn’t matter, you’re right. I really do think Texas is our best bet with your transformations. We need to avoid big cities for now.” She looked at him, biting her lip. “What… what if I don’t want Broadway anymore? I know, it’s been my dream for years and I’ve always talk about it, but lately, I’ve been thinking about if it’s something I really want. I mean, my dads have bred me for being a Broadway star. It’s all I’ve ever dreamed about because I was constantly told that it was my goal. I want to sing, Noah. I want to act. I want that Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony, SAG, Golden Globes, People’s Choice awards. I mean, I know I am meant to do bigger things, but what if Broadway’s not for me? What if, I just want to write songs and sing? What if I just want to act in movies? What if I want to model? I mean… I’ve never questioned my life until now and it’s because I want what’s best for our baby.”
“I know you want him to have curls, Rach, I can tell by the look on your face,” He raised an eyebrow at her, “So he can have curls, but not too long. ‘Cause I know he’s gonna get annoyed by the school just like I did.” He was always sort of curious as to what he would look like now if he kept his hair the way it was naturally, actually he wouldn’t. It would’ve been a hot mess. He nods, “Texas is gonna be are home, and I’m really fuckin’ happy about it actually. Way more than I thought I would.” He knows that it might be mainly because of him, and he hated that. He wanted what his family wanted, but it seemed like maybe Rachel really did want this. “I can’t wait. We need to go visit soon,” He said with a smile, leaning down to kiss her quickly. “Rachel,” He said after a moment, sighing as he combed his fingers through her hair again. “I know you want to be on Broadway, I still see the way your eyes light up every time someone talks about it or you sing a song or watch a movie or whatever. You’re gonna be on a stage one day with your name up in lights, I know you will. Whether it’s for a week or two, or maybe a few months, it doesn’t matter because you will get there. I know you will.” He pressed a kiss to the tip of her nose and then moved down to bury his face in her neck, “But no matter what you do, I’ll be there. Always. Forever.”
She scrunched her nose up as he kissed it, whimpering as he pulled out. She hated when he left her body. It felt wrong. She laid her head on his, putting her hands on his. “If it’s a boy, I want him to look like you. Eyes, hair, mouth, personality.” She smiled, sighing happily. “He’ll be a mommy’s boy. I’ll make him be one,” she said, chuckling. She knew her children would have favorites. All kids did. She preferred her daddy over her papa, even if daddy scared Noah. “I want a girl though. And I want her to have a better life than I did. I don’t want her to be bullied for her dreams or clothes or because her parents had her as such a young age. I want her to be motivated, but not naive. Tell her that there is a guy you can write up on paper that may seem perfect, but that the perfect guy could be her best friend.” She looked at Noah, sighing. “And I want her to know that her parents love her more than anything in the world. That she’ll always have both of us.” She lifted his hand, kissing his palm before setting it back on her stomach. “And she’ll never know that I put off Broadway for her. I don’t want to be Shelby, putting my career before my family. Broadway will always be there, but she comes first. You come first. We are going to be happy whether I go to Broadway now, or wait until she’s older. And I am excited of our plan to move to Texas. I never thought I would be, but I am.”
If he could, he would literally spend most of the day inside her. Not just having sex, but just because he could. It felt so right, so natural, to be connected like that that it was so weird when they weren’t. And he started to crave it all over again. He chuckled a bit, his free arm wrapping around her and pulling her closer, “Are you sure you want that? A mini version of me?” Secretly, he knows she would. And he would love it to. “If it’s a boy, he’s getting a mohawk. No questions.” He would hate if he had a boy and let the chance slip of him having a mohawk, it just wouldn’t be right. One of his kids has to pass on the Puckerman legacy, and it was going to be one of his sons since he knew Rachel would not let him go near their daughters. “Rachel,” He said after a moment, shaking his head. “Boy, girl, whatever. We both know what it’s like to get abandoned and to feel worthless because a parent didn’t want us. And I know I’m sure as hell gonna make sure that none of our kids feel like that, ever. I know you feel the exact same way and would do anything to make sure they don’t go through that. Which is also why I know we’re gonna be such kick ass parents, we know exactly what not to do. And we’ll give her everything, literally.” Right after she kissed his palm, he leaned forward and kissed her quickly. “Technically, that doesn’t really matter, right? I mean, either way you’re gonna be on Broadway someday. What’s the big deal if it’s now or a little later? We could go to school in Texas, get my transformations under control and have Sea Monkey grow up a bit and then we can move to New York.”
He was singing her song. She hadn’t heard him sing it since the last night of Hanukkah when he gave it to her as her Christmas gift. She began to hum along, breathing too heavily to actually join in with him. She liked listening to him sing to her though. It didn’t happen often considering that they’ve just been busy with other things like working on his GPA, applying to schools, getting ready for Regionals and now the baby. She placed her hand on her belly, looking down at it for a moment, then up at him, feeling him move to look at her. She smiled, locking eyes with him as he continued to sing to her. The song was absolutely accurate in how they were. Musical Soulmates. Really they were just soulmates, not just musical ones. “You are the one, the only, my musical soulmate,” she sang softly with him on the last line, leaning up to kiss him softly. “I love you,” she whispered, bumping noses with him. “That was your daddy singing, Sea Monkey. Isn’t he amazing?” She looked up at him, smiling before looking down at her belly. “He’s going to sing you to sleep every night.” She couldn’t shake off this feeling of pure happiness if she wanted to. It was perfect. It was them. Looking back up at Noah, she caught his eyes, getting lost into those beautiful hazel eyes. “I want her to have your eyes. They’re my favorite part of you. And your smile.”
It’s been a month since he’s sung this too her, but it was always his go-to song now. Sometimes even more so than Sweet Caroline, but he had a feeling that would change as soon as they found out whether or not their baby was a boy or a girl. Either way, it will always still symbolic. It was just that, this song was more personal. It was about Rachel, about them. All of his feelings for her wrapped up into one, it was a good way to let her know how he felt when he couldn’t find the words. When he felt her shift a bit, he pulled away and looked down at her and then he looked down at her stomach where her hand was sitting. He looked back up at her while he continued, smiling at her and then brushing the tip of his nose against hers. “I love you too,” He said, right after finishing the last line together. He smiled as he listened to Rachel talking to their baby, still in disbelief that it was possible for him to be this happy. Really. He couldn’t full grasp it. They both looked back at each other, bringing hand up to brush the hair out of her face and comb through her hair. “She’s going to be perfect, no matter what. But I want her to have your everything, seriously. Hair, eyes, mouth, nose,” He leaned forward and pressed a kiss to the tip of it. And then he reluctantly slid himself out from inside her with a small groan, laying down next to her on his side and splaying his own hand on her stomach while nuzzling her neck with his nose.
As soon as Noah said those words to her, her lips crashed against his. The thing about forever is that no one really realizes how entwine your lives are to each other. Most people, when giving out promise rings, fail to realize it. When you love someone so much, everything they do is a part of you, just like everything you do is a part of them. They were a part of each other. Noah had never worded things like this before. It was… an eye-opener. In that moment, it was like it was set in stone that neither of them would ever leave. It was symbolic in Rachel’s eyes. Noah might not view it as such or think too much on it, but it was. She arched into him more, wanting to feel more of him. Their lips broke apart when air was needed and she was almost lightheaded from the kiss. The room was silent, except when you heard skin against skin and the occasional grunt when Noah made a hard thrust. The pace never increased, their voices didn’t either. When her orgasm hit, she finally closed her eyes as she moaned out his name as he moaned hers. Even as they both came down from the power of the orgasm, it was silent. looking up at him, she put her hand on his head, leaning up to kiss him softly. “You’re a part of me too, Noah,” she whispered, smiling a bit.
It was like it just clicked for both of them, neither of them were leaving. What they had really was forever, it was like it was in writing and a promise that can’t be broken. And he was okay with all of that because that’s what he wanted. He wanted her every day forever. He doesn’t mind sharing part of his soul with her because it feels so right. At first, she was the one who wormed her way into his heart. But now, she can have as much of it as she wants. He doesn’t care. He’s just so fucking happy to have her forever, and it feels so good to know that he gets her everyday until then. It’s still way too surreal to even think about it, but he does all the time and it still never ceases to make him smile like an idiot at the thought. In this moment, he wanted to feel all of her, his thrusts going deeper and moving a little harder against her hips but the pace never picked up. They came at the same time, just small moans of each other’s names as their lips brushed together from how close they were to one another. He leaned on his forearms, one on each side of her so he wouldn’t crush her. His hips stilled after a moment, nothing coming from the room except the sounds of their breathing. He opened his eyes to look at her, a smile appearing on his face as she kissed him. When they pulled away, he let his head fall a bit, his cheek pressed against hers. Even though he was still trying to catch his breath, he started singing anyways, I remember when I realized the depth of your beauty for the first time.
Forever. It was their go to word whenever either of them were having self-doubt. She had forever with this man and she couldn’t wait. She couldn’t bring herself to stop crying yet, even though she wanted to. “Okay,” she whispered. She knew that his way to show her was physical, and that was okay with her. It was his best way of showing how he feels. He’s always been like that. Making love with Noah was something that you only read about. How it was passionate and slow. How you were so in sync with your spouse and how powerful the emotions were. Her hand pressed against his head as the tears came to a halt, feeling how good he was making her feel by the little nips and kisses. As he slipped into her, she let out a breathy moan, her body arching into his. This was her favorite moment, when they both stopped, letting each other feel every inch of each other. How his breath seemed to catch as he looked over her body before he began to move at his slow, torturous pace. Locking eyes with his, she cupped his face, making his forehead press against hers. “I love you so much, Noah. More… more than, oh. More than Broadway. Fuck.” She had trouble speaking during this, but she needed to let him know. Noah was bigger than Broadway, he meant more than Broadway and so did their baby. The life she had planned now, it was for all of them. It was to make everything great for all of them.
He never thought it was possible to feel this good, seriously. And the fact that all it took was one girl to make him feel like this, was even crazier. He couldn’t picture it being anyone else but Rachel. It was too right to think about other possibilities, and in reality, there were none for them. It was them, forever. Nothing could stop them. Nothing. This moment just further proved that, they were never going to find people like each other and they didn’t plan on searching at all. And he was beyond okay with that. Just like he did every time, he let his eyes wander over her body. But something about this seemed so different, maybe it was because this time he was proving something to her instead of the other way around. And he was okay with that. He pressed his forehead against hers, their mouths so close to each other that their lips brushed every now and then. His pace was slow, almost too slow for him even. But he didn’t care, he was trying to show her that he wasn’t going anywhere. He would do this all the time if it meant she would be convinced of that, because he wasn’t going anywhere. Not before, not now, not ever. At first, he thought her talking would ruin the moment or something but he didn’t. Which is why he took the opportunity after her to just say something real quick too. “You,” He said breathlessly, closing his eyes for a moment and moaning softly against her lips as they brushed. “Are my everything. You’re…A part of me, Rach.” He paused for a moment but his hips continued, “You’re in my…heart, mind, soul, everything. I’m not leaving.”
Moments like these were moments Rachel cherished. It was just simple and easy laying there with him. They were just watching each other and even with that, she could feel herself blushing from it. He had a certain way of looking at her that made her feel like she was the most beautiful woman in the world and she still debated that at times, but it was wonderful to feel that way. She chuckled with him when he nipped her lip a bit and it was just that easy. Who else could feel this relaxed and at home like this? She smiled into the kiss when he did and she could honestly die a happy woman just by kissing him like this alone. They were taking their time with each other. They had three days with each other. As their tongues met each other, she wondered how she got so lucky with him. They were so happy. She wondered when something would come up and puncture their perfect family. It was a fear of hers. Whenever something good happens in her life, something bad comes along and ruins it and she couldn’t bear ruining any of this. Noah was her world and so was their baby. If something were to happen, she wouldn’t know what she’d do. She hadn’t even realized she was crying until he pulled away. Sniffling, she looked down with a sigh. “Please don’t ever leave me. No matter what happens. Don’t leave me.”
Seriously, never in a million years would he ever have thought he would enjoy being with a girl like this. For the longest time, he thought that being this happy was impossible. After seeing what happened to his mom, he thought it was impossible for two people to be happy. But it wasn’t all uncommon. He saw it in Rachel’s dads, his mom without his dad and no himself with Rachel. He could literally just lay her like this with him and be content, which still surprised him. Not very many people their age were like this when they were dating or whatever, but him and Rachel. And he would never go back to that, ever. He couldn’t really, but he didn’t want to either. He wanted this, forever. Which is what he was going to get. And he couldn’t be more excited about it. They were literally just laying there, kissing super slow and lazy and he actually fucking loved it. He did pull away though when he tasted salt, even though he really didn’t want to. He wasn’t laughing at her, he wasn’t. He was laughing at how crazy she was, and he knows it’s because of hormones but was she serious. “Forever,” He said to her, but the tears were still falling. He sighed, bringing his hands up to wipe some of her tears away with her thumbs, “Let me show you.” He let his lips fall to her neck, nipping lightly her and there. He didn’t pull away until she stopped crying, and he knew she did by the way her hand went to his head to keep him in place. His hands slid down her sides as he moved across her collarbone, rolling his hips before entering her slowly.
She wasn’t surprised that it didn’t take much before he began to lose control, which was why she was avoiding taking him in all the way. It was so easy for her to and she knew he loved it, but his pride would never for give him if he came in one swallow after he immediately entered her mouth. Never would they go this long without sex again. Ever. She could hear him chanting her name, the grip he hand in her hair becoming tighter and so she decided to give him what he wanted, to come. As soon as he hit the back of her throat (she didn’t even swallow) he came quickly and violently. She hand to hold both of his hips down to keep him from smacking her accidentally in the face as he unraveled. And she wasn’t even concerned about him bouncing back from it. They were both young. Very young, plus, he was a werewolf, so that helped a lot as well. They were going to be making up for this for the rest of the day and probably the weekend. It was times like these she was grateful that his mother and sister spent so much time at his Nana’s. Once she cleaned him up, she released him with a pop and kissed up his body before pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. “I love you,” she mumbled against them. Before Noah, Rachel would never dream of doing the things they’ve done sexually with each other and now, she was glad it was him. She didn’t want anyone else. By waiting, she had found her perfect guy, and that was something most women could not say.
It took him a few moments to recover, his eyes opening to meet Rachel’s deep chocolate brown ones when she pulled her lips away from his. His hands came up to settle on her waist, fingertips of one dancing along her spine while the thumb of the other hand was brushing along the curve of her stomach. He gave her a small smile, “I love you too.” He leaned up a bit, just enough so he could brush the tip of his nose against hers. Other people probably would’ve found it strange, how they were just laying there looking at each other, but it wasn’t weird or creepy or anything like that. It just happened with them sometimes, they would just watch each other. But after another few minutes, his smile grew a bit as he leaned up and nipped lightly at her bottom lip. They both chuckled softly before he leaned up again, but this time it was to kiss her. He was smiling the entire time, and he couldn’t really figure out why, he just was. But he could feel her smiling to, so it made him feel better. Eventually, he rolled them over so she was underneath him and he was hovering over her, their lips still attached. He ran his tongue over her bottom lip lazily, pressing against the seam of her lips before pushing it past them to run against hers. Their movements were lazy, but that’s how it always started, especially after something like what just happened transpires.
Rachel let out a small whimper as he told her it was her that turned him on. Did he not know how sweet he was and how hot he was being. And she knew how long it’s been. She had counted. “Ten days,” she said in a husky voice. She watched as his hand traveled up her thighs and onto her sides, his thumbs brushing the sides of her breasts, almost to test their sensitivity. Nodding at him, she let him know he was okay and he quickly cupped her breast, allowing her to release a soft moan. “Noah…” She leaned down, kissing him deeply as her hand quickly got rid of his sweatpants. They really shouldn’t bother wearing clothes on days like these. They just got in the way. She quickly kissed down his body, making her way to his cock. She wanted to take her time, yes, but it also had been far too long. Longer than normal. She began to stroke him as she began to try and make a mark on his chest, but she was never successful. She blamed the werewolf in him. With a slight growl of frustration, she finally took him into her mouth, moaning at the fact that this was long overdue. And like she told him earlier, she was supposed to be taking care of him today.
She would fucking know the exact amount of days it’s been since they’ve been together like this, and fuck, it’s been way too long. He’s surprised they lasted more than a day, this may be a record for them. Too bad he planned on breaking for the next few hours, over and over again. He has to make up for lost time, sue him. “Never again,” He said as he slid his hands up her thighs, but stopping at her rib cage. He brushed his thumbs back and forth over the sides of her breasts, waiting for her answer. He knew most of her body was in pain, but it varied which parts depending on the day. As soon as she nodded, he moved his hands to palm her breasts, yet another thing to prove how much of a fit they were. Even though they’ve grown, they still fit perfectly in his hands, he’s sure they always will. Clothes, dumb. Always dumb when it came to them on days like this, it was just pointless. And before he knew it, his hand was in her hair as she took him into her mouth. Fuck, he loved this girl. She knew exactly what to do and when to do it. He knew this was part of her taking care of him bullshit that she thinks is necessary when it’s not, especially after tonight. Maybe it was the fact that it’s been way too fucking long since they’ve been like this for so long, but before he knew he was chanting her name like it was his job as he released himself into her mouth as soon as he hit the back of her throat, back arching off the bed and hand still tangles tight in her hair.
Rachel scrunched up her nose when he kissed it, smiling as he pulled away. She knew he preferred this over any other injury in the past he has gotten and so did she. She kissed him again, laughing a little bit from the way his fingers managed to tickle her skin beneath her ribcage. “Noah, don’t you dare!” But the grin on his face told her it was too late. In an instant, she was on her back and he was tickling her. She was laughing, letting out a snort here and there that were surely unattractive, but seeing him laugh with her made it all worth while. “You need to stop! I got to pee!” She pushed him off her gently, kissing him as she made her way to the bathroom. She partially blamed him for this and the baby. And his mother for making her drink more water. Once she was out, she rolled her eyes as she noticed him posing on the bed. “Are you trying to tell me something Noah?” She smirked, leaning against the bed post. She knew what he wanted, and it was obvious from one glance down his body. “How in god’s name did me laughing turn you on?” She chuckled a bit, crawling back onto the bed and straddling his lap. “I’m not even sexy looking right now. Me and my belly.” She pouted a little, biting back a moan when he grabbed her hips, moving her over his half hard-on.
She should’ve seen it coming. Like, how could he not tickle her once he felt her shiver when his fingertips ran across her rib cage. So, he rolled her over so she was on her back and his fingertips dug a little harder against her skin, knowing that she was ticklish there and behind her knee. One hand was working on her ribs while the other was behind her knee, laughing with her as she tried to push him away. And eventually he had to, rolling off with her push and laying on his back on the bed. “Go pee, I’m not going anywhere,” He smiled into the kiss before watching her walk off into the bathroom, propping himself up on one elbow as he waited for her to come back out. And no, he wasn’t intentionally posing, it sort of just happened. Whatever. Apparently it worked, ‘cause yeah he was trying to tell her something. “Wasn’t the laughing, baby,” He said, He ground her hips down against his as she straddled his lap. “It’s actually you, like, all of you. Baby bump and all.” That might sound weird but she fucking rocked the baby bump, not even kidding. And it wasn’t until their stomachs were pressed together before while he was tickling her that he actually felt it. It just did something to him, he couldn’t really describe it. His hands smoothed up and down her thighs, “Do you know how fucking long it’s been, Rachel?” And he didn’t have an exact number, but it’s been way too fucking long since he’s been inside her. It’s not like there was a reason, it just hasn’t happened. Since they found out she was pregnant, they haven’t really focused on much else. But right now, he needed to focus on the friction between their hips right now, and the fact his sweatpants needed to fucking go. Now.
She chuckled a bit, feeling him nuzzle her neck. She felt like she was floating on cloud nine. She was so happy about everything. Sure, she knew there would be complications. She was tiny and that was no surprise there. Rachel was five foot two and wore a size two on a normal basis. As much as Noah raved about her lower body (he had a thing for her legs and butt) it was obvious that her body wasn’t made for childbirth yet. She hadn’t prepared herself properly for it. She just prayed that everything would go well. That there would be no complications with the baby or how she would carry during the pregnancy. It was all she asked for. Kissing him softly, she knew he’d protect her. He would always protect her. “I know you do. And I know you will. You’ll do anything to protect me and Sea Monkey.” She put her hand over his as they laid there, just staring at each other. “Your eyes are back to normal.” It was nice seeing the normal honey green eyes staring back at her, not that she didn’t like it when his eyes were gold, but gold meant that he was still becoming human. “How are you feeling? I think you’re going to have to invest in turtle necks or tight hoodies.” She bit her lip as her fingers ran over the bruising on his neck. She could hear the hiss that escaped his lips when she touched it and brought her hand back. “Sorry. I didn’t think it would hurt too badly. Looks like you aren’t going to heal as fast as we thought from those.”
“Always,” He said, confirming her assumptions about him protecting them. He would. Even if it meant him getting in the middle of something and possibly getting hurt, he’ll do it. He’d do anything for her, for them. And he’s happy she knows that. But he’s not sure how deep that statement goes for him, he knows she doesn’t get how much he’d do to make sure they were safe. How much he’d sacrifice. When she laid her hand over his, his fingers wove with hers backwards and stayed splayed on her stomach. He smiled at her when she mentioned his eyes, obviously not being able to see them himself but he trusts her. “I’m great,” He said with a smile, honestly. ‘Cause he was doing great, better than he ever has after a full moon. He hopes that every full moon after this one will be like that, Rachel doesn’t need the added stress. “That or make up,” And he wasn’t exactly for the idea, but he was not a fan of turtle necks. He could definitely do sweatshirts but it wouldn’t cover up the whole thing. He trued to hold back the hiss when she touched his neck, wincing a bit as well. He was so consumed with Rachel that he forgot they were they, not even kidding. He shook his head, “It’s okay. They don’t hurt unless you touch them.” He chuckled a bit, leaning forward and pressing a kiss to the tip of her nose. He looking down at his wrists, lifting up the edge of his sweatpants and looking at his hip, then looking down at his ankles as he pulled the ends up a bit. They were all bruised, and he was sure they all hurt if you touched them. “No, probably not.” It sucked but he’ll take it, he’ll take this over anything he’s been through in the past during full moons. This was nothing.
