Jensen had to leave eventually yesterday, so he could drive Justice to Danneel's new place just outside town.
I always thought that I've had a bad night of sleeping or more lack of it, but this past night was a nightmare for everyone, even for the kids.
It was almost 4 a.m when we decided to get upstairs to try to get some sleep, but before the clock hit the seven mark everyone was already up, even Gen.
The worst things are crossing everyone's mind, what if Danneel hurts JJ or kidnaps her just to make Jay suffer? That woman is insane, so that's not such an unlikely thing to happen. With Jensen, around we just try to stay positive and sometimes Jared even tries to crack a joke, not that he is funny but at least he tries.
"I've been thinking about names for the baby..." — Gen was the one that spoke, probably trying to get this horrific mood out of the window and distract us with a new subject. — "How about Fellony?" — I almost choked on the coffee that I had just put in my mouth when she spoke... Oh God, here we go again.
"I don't like that one... Veto on that." — I try to say while using the napkin to clean the mess that I've made on the table when I almost spilled all of my coffee out of the mug.
"We already know that, Claire. It's our third child and every time, you said that you didn't like that name" – Jared was looking at Gen while he talked and that thing made me roll my eyes annoyed. Why should someone want to name their baby with such a horrible name?
"Yeah, that's because I really don't like that name and I refuse to have a niece or a nephew with that name." — I finally got the mug on the sink, along with all the dishes that were spread around the kitchen.
"What name would you choose if you had another daughter?" — Jensen asked, helping me get all the plates underwater, so it would be easier to clean them later. From the corner of my eyes I could see Jared covering his face with the palm of his hand while Gen was just rolling her eyes.
"Please don't ask her that, Jay..." — Gen was starting to say, only to be interrupted by her tall husband that had his cheeks turning a light shade of pink.
"Too late for that..." — Moose said, taking a seat where I was sitting earlier. This right here ladies and gentlemen is my time to shine and humiliate Jared a bit and I will love every second of it.
"Lorelai... I would call her Lorelai" – I was too damn proud of the name that I would give my daughter. Not just because I actually like the name, but I know that Jared would be embarrassed every time he had to call for her.
"Jesus, Jared, you let her watch the show?" — I don't know if Jensen was shocked that I actually found the show and watched it just because Jared was in it, or was trying to actually make fun of him too.
"Let her...? I forbade her, I always told her to watch everything but that, and guess what? One night, when Gen and I went out to celebrate our anniversary, we asked Claire to take care of the kids. When we got home, they were all watching it!" — Jared was obviously still embarrassed about that night, because Summer really made fun of him for a whole month, and I made fun of her because she thought that uncle Jared was cute when he was younger.
"Since that day and after she watched the complete show, she wants us to have a baby boy. That way we can call him Dean for many reasons obviously, and she wants to have another daughter, so she can call her Lorelai. Power couple as she said." — I don't know what Gen meant by the many reasons that her baby boy should be called Dean, but I will let it pass this time.
"I like Lorelai, it's cute and sophisticated and oh... we can call her Rory, just like in the show!" — Jensen was laughing at the top of his lungs, making it a little hard for everybody in the room to comprehend what he was saying, but something really stuck in my ears.
"We? Who said that I'm going to have another baby with you? I don't think I got the Memo for that." — I was trying to make a little fun of him, but somewhere deep in my heart those words hit deeper than they should, the little butterflies in my stomach doing small backflips on my stomach.
"Well... I didn't mean it... I just..." — He was starting to mumble and that should be fun to watch, but it wasn't really, not when the words he just said were the dream that I wanted the most to come true. — "What I meant was, shit... If you want to, one day, we can do it right this time." — I was trying to control the creepy smile that was fighting to get a place on my face with his words, but honestly, who am I kidding? His words made the butterflies jump even higher this time.
"Okay, that's it." — Jared interrupted the small moment that I was currently having with Jensen with his louder voice and when I looked at him, he had his hands on each side of Gen's still small stomach. — "That's enough information for my unborn child. Let's go..." — I couldn't stop the giggle that came out of my mouth when I watched him leaving the kitchen with his hands still on Gen's belly, guiding her out of the space.
"It's a really nice day outside..." — Jensen was trying to make a conversation, probably just to try to fill the silence that had fallen on us since the couple left the kitchen fifteen minutes ago and left us to clean the dishes.
"Indeed, summer is almost here." — Am I stupid? Yes. Do I want to punch myself in the face? Yes. Could've I picked a more boring thing to say? No, I couldn't.
"What do you say about taking a walk around the neighborhood?" — He was just finishing drying the glasses that I've given to him, and his eyes never left the task in his hands, not even for a second.
"That would be nice, yeah... I just need to ask them if they mind taking care of Summer while we're out." — Good one, Claire, play it cool... Pretend that you are ok with spending a whole morning walking with him around the neighborhood.
"Don't worry, I have had that covered since I woke up, they don't mind." — My heart was the one that squeezed in joy with his words, apparently he had been wanting to ask me to go with him since he woke up. — "Go get dressed, I'll finish it here." — He gave me one of his bright boyish smiles that made him look so much younger than he is, almost as young as he was when I met him.
"Be down in a minute or so..." — I couldn't take my eyes away from his lovely face until the moment that I couldn't see him because the wall that divides the kitchen from the living room covered my view.
I realized then that I fell in love with him when we were together, then fell deeper in love with him in the years we were apart.
