I tình yêu the tiêu đề of this song (the lyrics not really) and the Những người bạn episode where Joey wants to brush a girls hair and feed her grapes, so I decided to write a Huli fic about it... Enjoy!
p.s. I'll write thêm chapters of Holiday, but I'm really busy so it might take a little while longer...
There’s nothing Good about Goodbye
‘Hugh?’, she yelled from the kitchen. Instead of an answer she heard him playing a melody, the melody, on the piano. ‘Hugh!’, she walked into the living room where he sat behind the piano. His eyes were closed, while his fingers were sliding over the keys, creating a certain melody over and over again... ‘Hugh! Will bạn please stop playing the đàn piano for one second!’, her words sounded angry this time, but he didn’t stop, he couldn’t stop. She walked over to him and was about to close the đàn piano on his fingers when he stopped. He opened his eyes, which she could now see were red. He quickly turned his head to avoid looking at her, ‘What did bạn want to say?’, his voice was rough and barely audible. She was a little taken aback bởi his actions, but she knew him and his sulking for over 20 years and was not about to let him get away with anything now just because of that. ‘I told bạn to get groceries, in fact I told bạn the ngày before yesterday to get groceries and bạn still didn’t get them and now the fridge is empty! I’m not going to do everything around the house and work 4 days a week while bạn sit here drowning in your self-created misery hoặc depression hoặc whatever bạn name it!’ Her words stung hard, ‘I Mất tích my job!’ ‘Because the series ended!’ He swallowed, got up and walked away. ‘Where do bạn think you’re going?’ ‘Walking the dog.’ ‘Right, just run away again!’
‘I can’t believe this is it.’, he đã đưa ý kiến as they walked to their cars. ‘I know, me neither…’ They had just finished the last ngày of shooting of the series finale of House. ‘At least we have a party to look phía trước, chuyển tiếp to.’, she tried to cheer him up. ‘Yeah… it just… it feels weird.’ She nodded and slowed down as her car was parked just a few steps away. Hugh saw it too and also slowed his steps, ‘Liz? Do you… wanna go for a drink hoặc something?’ A little smile tugged on her lips as he asked that and looking into his pleading baby blue eyes she couldn’t say no. ‘Of course.’ ‘My place?’ She could see him blush shyly and gave him a little smile. ‘Yeah, I’m not in the mood for public places either.’, she đã đưa ý kiến to his relief. She walked around her car and was ready to get in when she saw that Hugh hadn’t moved and was just staring blankly at her, he looked so lost. She walked back over to him and placed a hand on his cheek as he stared into her eyes. ‘It’s gonna be okay.’, she whispered as he pulled her into a hug, his strong arms tightly wrapped around her. She closed her eyes and brushed her hands trough his hair and over his neck as he hid his face in the crook of her neck. When she felt wet drops make contact with her skin she let go of a breath she didn’t know she had been holding as they both let their tears flow freely in the safety of each others arms.
That evening Hugh sat down on the đi văng tiếp theo to his wife, who was watching TV. He wrapped an arm around her, which made her frown and look up at him. ‘What are bạn doing?’ Hugh smiled, ‘I’m just being nice. Can’t I bọc my arms around my wife anymore?’ Jo gave him a weird look, ‘Yeah, whatever…’, she đã đưa ý kiến and turned to the TV again. ‘You know… I think bạn should let your hair grow…’, Hugh babbled, obviously not interested in the TV. ‘What?’, Jo shut the TV off and turned to her husband. ‘Yeah, I think it would be pretty. I like long hair on a woman…’ ‘Right, we’re married for over 20 years, in which I’ve had nothing but short hair and now all of a sudden bạn tell me bạn like woman with long hair?’ ‘Yeah… I like long hair, it’s nice… and bạn can brush it…’ ‘Seriously Hugh, what is up with you?! Are bạn telling me I should brush my hair? Is it that ugly?!’ ‘No, no… it’s just that I would like to brush your hair, bạn know… it’s an intimate thing, but I can’t do that now, because your hair is too short.’ ‘You would like to brush my hair? You’re really freaking me out here. Did bạn drink hoặc take pills hoặc anything? Because this is really getting creepy. tiếp theo thing bạn know, bạn want to polish my nails!’ Hugh blushed and quickly walked away, grabbing the hairbrush and the bottle of nail polish he had placed on the side bàn with him…
‘Surprise!’, Hugh yelled as Lisa opened the door to his living room. It was Hugh’s last ngày in LA and he had asked Lisa to come over to share it with him. When she arrived at his house all the curtains in the front where closed and the front door was unlocked. ‘What… what is all this?’, she đã đưa ý kiến looking around what used to be his living room but had now changed into a big and beautiful trang chủ SPA. Hugh smiled, ‘A present... for you, because bạn have been the most amazing friend to me for the past 7 years and I don’t think I would have survived without you.’ ‘O Hugh…’, she đã đưa ý kiến almost running to him and wrapping her arms around him. He returned her hug, ‘Hmm, now how about bạn go to the guestroom and change into the clothes I put there for you, while I get some things ready.’ ‘Sounds like a plan to me!’ When she got to the guest room there lay a bikini on the giường accompanied bởi a sweet note. When she walked back into the living room Hugh told her he had made a schedule and it started with giving her a massage. After the massage he led her to the hot tub and served her lunch. ‘Mmmm, these trái xoài, xoài pieces are really amazing…’, Lisa đã đưa ý kiến and smiled at Hugh who was feeding her. After a few thêm bites Lisa told him she had eaten enough for now and asked him to tham gia her in the hot tub, which he did thêm than willingly. They talked for a while and moved closer to each other as time passed until in the end he was playing with her hair. ‘Have I ever told bạn how much I like your hair?’ Lisa giggled, ‘No, bạn haven’t… It’s getting all curly now because of the water… Doesn’t matter, I have to wash it anyway’ ‘I could wash your hair…’ Lisa smirked, ‘Really?’ ‘Yeah, I’m your personal spa-person for today, so…’ ‘Well go ahead then…’, she smiled. After washing her hair, Hugh tried to give her a facial, but he didn’t really know how so she ended up giving him one, which made them both laugh. After that he put on a movie, brushed her hair and massaged her feet. When Lisa saw a small bottle of nail polish on the bàn she smiled, ‘You going to polish my nails?’ Hugh blushed, ‘I ehm.. only if bạn want to…’ ‘Have bạn ever done it before?’ ‘I-I kind of practiced… don’t tell anyone, please.’ In reply she just smiled, she loved the things he had done for her today. It made her feel really special… When the movie ended, Hugh told Lisa to go to his bedroom and change into the clothes he put there for her. ‘I just hope it isn’t an S&M costume!’, Lisa yelled as she made her way to his bedroom. When she opened the door she saw the clothing was anything but an S&M costume. On the giường lay a beautiful long dark blue dress, which she was in tình yêu with the một phút she saw it. She quickly put it on and it fit perfectly. It hugged her curves nicely, while hiển thị her back and cleavage to a certain, but appropriate amount. tiếp theo to the giường stood matching shoes, that man had really thought every single thing trough. ‘Just like an angel…’, it was the only thing he could say when he saw her enter the dining room where bữa tối, bữa ăn tối was waiting for them. After bữa tối, bữa ăn tối Hugh put on a CD with all of Lisa’s yêu thích songs on it. ‘May I have this dance, please?’, he kneeled in front of her. She smiled brightly and nodded. They just danced for a while, the âm nhạc making the only sound. When the âm nhạc stopped they pulled each other closer and into a very tight hug. ‘Thank you… Thank bạn for everything. It was so perfect… I kind of feel bad that I didn’t get bạn a present hoặc anything…’, she blushed. ‘You don’t have to get me a present, bạn already gave me thêm than I could have ever imagined…’
‘Since when did your bladder became the size of a walnut?’, Jo asked when Hugh came back from the bathroom. ‘What?’ ‘It’s 4 am and you’ve visited the bathroom 5 times in the past 2 hours!’ ‘I-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you.’ ‘Well bạn do, so stop going there.’ He crawled back into their bed, ‘I’m sorry, but I can’t help it that I have to go and I’m not just going to lay here waiting for the morning because it might be inconvenient for bạn that I have to pie at night!’ ‘Well then there bạn go! Get out of giường and go sleep and pie in the guestroom!’ ‘Fine!’, he đã đưa ý kiến and got up, making a stop at the bathroom before going to the guestroom. ‘Hey Liz, I’m in the guestroom now. Jo made me sleep here 2night. What u doing? Xx’, he texted. It was only a một phút after he send his text that he got one back, ‘You been a bad boy? I’m still watching that movie... Xx’ He smiled, ‘Went 2 the bathroom 5x in 2 hours to text you… Are bạn at the sad part yet? Xx’ ‘You shouldn’t do that bạn know… And yes… it’s really sad! Can’t believe bạn made me watch this;) Xx.’ ‘I know. I guess I’ll go to sleep now… I miss you. Xx.’ ‘I miss bạn too. Sweet dreams. X!’ He would surely have sweet dreams and they would be all about her…
‘What time does your flight leave?’, he asked. ‘In 3 hours, yours?’ ’15 phút after yours…’ They sat in the back of a cab to the airport, holding hands. Their fingers were softly stroking each other as that was the only intimacy they could handle without breaking down completely. ‘So, you’ll come to my birthday right?’, she asked hopefully. ‘I wouldn’t want to miss it for the world.’, he squeezed her hand, ‘And then you’ll come over to Luân Đôn for my birthday?’ She nodded, ‘No way I’m missing bạn celebrating your birthday for once.’ He smiled, she was the only reason he was celebrating his birthday, he hoped that she would stay a little longer and he could hiển thị her around London. ‘I’m going to miss you.’, he suddenly blurted out. She looked up at him, ‘I’ll miss bạn too.’ Drawn into the moment he pressed his lips on hers. After a while they both pulled back, but it lasted a while before they opened there eyes. ‘And then they say there’s nothing good about goodbye.’, Lisa smirked which in turn made him smile.
‘Morning honey! Look I made breakfast and I even got bạn flowers!’, Hugh pointed to the hoa hồng he had put on the bàn in the dining room. Jo sighed, ‘You don’t have to do this, bạn know…’ ‘Do what? I’m just trying to be a good husband.’ ‘I know and I appreciate that you’re trying and have been trying really hard ever since bạn got back, but… bạn don’t have to fake it anymore Hugh…’ ‘Fake it…? What do bạn mean?’ ‘Hugh, please… I know… and I didn’t want to accept it at first, but… I think it’s time I do, we both do…’ Hugh blushed, ‘What… what exactly do bạn know?’ ‘That bạn really are in tình yêu with Lisa.’ ‘I-I…’ ‘Shh, let me explain first. It’s not like I didn’t know bạn had a soft spot for her, but I didn’t know bạn were in tình yêu until… until bạn came back actually. You’re playing that song on the đàn piano over and over again and when bạn didn’t want to talk to me, I knew bạn were nghề viết văn it for someone else. And then bạn suddenly want me to grow my hair so bạn can brush it. bạn go to the bathroom numerous times in the middle of the night to send her texts, yes I knew what bạn were doing. So this morning I logged in on your laptop and I saw bạn have an hourly updated schedule of flights leaving from Luân Đôn heading to New York. And now… bạn made me breakfast and both me flowers, which in itself is sweet, but look at the contents. It’s all fruit, bánh mì nướng and yoghurt while bạn know I always eat an English breakfast and then the roses…, bạn know they’re certainly not my yêu thích flowers…’ Hugh stared sadly at his feet. ‘I’m sorry, I was just trying to…’ ‘I know, bạn were trying to save our marriage one last time… but bạn were really projecting all the things bạn want to do with her on me… am I right?’ Hugh stared at his wife then closed his eyes swallowed and nodded. ‘Do bạn tình yêu her?’ ‘I-I… I don’t know, those feelings they’re all so… it’s just been a long time since I felt like this about someone… I just know I miss her and… I kind of want to be with her even if I can just hold her and nothing else.’ Jo nodded, ‘So I guess it’s time bạn act on your feelings then. Act selfish for once in your life and go be happy, go get your girl…’ ‘You don’t mind?’ ‘Of course I do, but… sometimes facing your fears isn’t as scary as bạn thought it would be. We’ve lived apart for so long, I’m kind of used to it. It’s time we both di chuyển on.’ Hugh nodded, ‘I never thought bạn would be the one to tell me this, bạn really have changed. Thank you, thanks for everything, for raising the children so well…’ ‘My pleasure Mr. Laurie, now scoot, you’ve got a plane to catch!’
Hugh stood nervously in front of Lisa’s apartment in New York, he had no idea how he was going to tell her he left his wife for her, he just hoped she didn’t have a boyfriend hoặc a one-night stand over. After a few phút of pacing he finally rang her doorbell. ‘Hello?’, he heard her voice. ‘Hey Liz, it’s me…’ ‘Hugh?! What are bạn doing here?’ ‘Can I come up, please?’ ‘Yeah… sure…’ He ran up the stairs and when he hit her floor he smiled when he saw her standing in front of her door waiting for him. ‘What…? What are bạn doing here?’, she asked happily surprised. He just ran straight to her, wrapped his arms around her and swirled her around, before crashing his lips on hers. At first she was too stunned to respond, but when she felt his warms lips softly sucking on hers, she couldn’t resist anymore and gave in. He lifted her up in his arms and they stumbled into her apartment crashing against multiple pieces of furniture. When they finally let go he stared deeply into her eyes, ‘I tình yêu you.’ ‘Ah..I-I… but what about…?’ ‘She wants me to be happy… we chẻ, phân chia, split up… and now, I just want to be with you… brush your hair and feed bạn grapes all ngày long…’ ‘I think I know a better way to spend our days’, she đã đưa ý kiến and winked. Hugh smirked, ‘Whatever bạn want Liz, whatever bạn want.’ She smiled and he carried her into the bedroom as she whispered in his ear that she loved him too…
‘Daddy!’, the 4-year-old yelled, running to her father. ‘Hey honey, what did I tell bạn about running at parties?’, Hugh said, but couldn’t help but smile at his little girl. ‘That I could only do it if mommy doesn’t see it.’, she answered proudly. Hugh laughed and lifted her into his arms as she held her arms wide open to hug him. ‘Daddy?’, she asked, ‘Who is that woman talking to mommy?’ Hugh looked over at his wife and smiled lovingly at her before looking at the person she was talking to, which turned out to be his ex-wife. ‘That is Jo, she’s Billy’s, Charlie’s and Becca’s mommy.’ ‘O… can we go see her? I wanna see Becca’s mommy.’, the girl đã đưa ý kiến smiling. Hugh thought for a moment, but decided it would be okay for Madeline to meet Jo. Madeline loved her big brothers and especially her big sister and was always asking why Lisa wasn’t her mommy and who was…
´Thank you.´, Lisa đã đưa ý kiến as Jo entered her dressing room. Jo just nodded. ´I-I just... I want bạn to know how grateful I am that you… did what bạn did. I really… owe you.’ ‘You don’t owe me anything Lisa, I can see how happy bạn made him, everybody can… and I could never make him that happy, neither did he make me as happy as he makes you. He really loves bạn and I’m happy for him, for the both of you.’ ‘Thank you… I.. I hope you’ll find the same thing someday, hoặc maybe bạn have found it already…’ Jo smiled, ‘Matt is a great guy, I haven’t been this happy in years with someone either.’ ‘That’s great to hear.’, Lisa smiled, she was happy Jo found someone. The woman stood in silence for a moment while Lisa fixed her hair. ‘I think I should go now. I just want to ask bạn one thing, if that’s okay?’ Lisa nodded, ‘Of course.’ ‘Please promise me you’ll always tell him the truth and that you’ll take good care of him even in bad times?’ ‘I will, I promise. I really tình yêu him and I don’t think that will ever fade.’ Jo nodded and smiled as she left the bride alone for the last phút before her wedding.
‘Jo!’, Hugh đã đưa ý kiến as he saw her walking away from his wife. ‘Hey, Hugh! Good to see you, bạn look good.’ Hugh nodded, ‘This is Maddie, my cute 4-year-old.’, he đã đưa ý kiến as Madeline pulled his hair. ‘Are bạn Becca’s mommy?’, the girl asked. Jo smiled, ‘Yes dear, I’m Becca’s mommy.’ Maddie giggled and quickly hid her face in her fathers neck. Hugh smiled at her and softly stroke over her long black curly hair. ‘You have very pretty hair, Maddie.’, Jo said. ‘Daddy always says I have princess hair, like mommy’s. Carry has princess hair too, but hers isn’t as curly.’ Both Jo and Hugh smiled at the little girl. ‘Baby, why don’t bạn go play with Carry and help mommy a little. We have to take good care of her , right?’ Maddie nodded, ‘Carry is my little sister, she’s this many’, she held up two fingers as she explained everything to Jo. ‘And we’re also getting a little baby brother hoặc sister, but the baby isn’t here yet, it’s still in mommy’s belly. The baby has to grow very strong first, just like me and Carry.’
Hugh smiled and looked over at his wife, who was sitting down feeding Carry and rubbing her heavily pregnant belly. It certainly was a miracle they were getting another baby. After Madeline they had been trying a lot before Lisa got pregnant with Carry and after they got her, no one thought she would be able to have yet another baby. But then it happened, at the age of 49, she managed to get pregnant again and she was now carrying a very healthy baby that was supposed to be born in less than a month.
When Maddie ran away to her mother and sister Hugh turned to Jo. ‘I can tell you’re really happy with them, bạn look much years younger.’ ‘I feel years younger.’, Hugh answered, ‘They really mean the world to me, all my children do.’ Jo nodded and felt a man’s hand on her shoulder. ‘Hey Hugh.’ ‘Hey Matt, good to see you.’, he đã đưa ý kiến to his ex-wife’s husband. ‘Yes, just let me say that bạn have the most adorable children in the world.’ Hugh smiled, ‘I really do. Please excuse me.’, he đã đưa ý kiến as he had a sudden urge to be near his wife.
‘Hey honey’, he đã đưa ý kiến as he pressed a Kiss on her lips. ‘Hey… I know I’ve already đã đưa ý kiến it 20 times today, but… happy 5th anniversary.’ ‘Happy 5th anniversary.’, Hugh replied as he pulled Lisa into his lap and kissed her a little thêm passionate this time. ‘I tình yêu you.’ ‘I tình yêu bạn too.’, she đã đưa ý kiến and kissed him once again as their baby kicked fanatically between them…

Are bạn telling me I should brush my hair? Is it that ugly?!’ ‘No, no… it’s just that I would like to brush your hair, bạn know… it’s an intimate thing, but I can’t do that now, because your hair is too short.’ ‘You would like to brush my hair? You’re really freaking me out here. Did bạn drink hoặc take pills hoặc anything? Because this is really getting creepy. tiếp theo thing bạn know, bạn want to polish my nails!’ Hugh blushed and quickly walked away, grabbing the hairbrush and the bottle of nail polish he had placed on the side bàn with him…
‘Surprise!’, Hugh yelled as Lisa opened the door to his living room. It was Hugh’s last ngày in LA and he had asked Lisa to come over to share it with him. When she arrived at his house all the curtains in the front where closed and the front door was unlocked. ‘What… what is all this?’, she đã đưa ý kiến looking around what used to be his living room but had now changed into a big and beautiful trang chủ SPA.

‘Since when did your bladder became the size of a walnut?’, Jo asked when Hugh came back from the bathroom. ‘What?’ ‘It’s 4 am and you’ve visited the bathroom 5 times in the past 2 hours!’ ‘I-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you.’ ‘Well bạn do, so stop going there.’ He crawled back into their bed, ‘I’m sorry, but I can’t help it that I have to go and I’m not just going to lay here waiting for the morning because it might be inconvenient for bạn that I have to pie at night!’ ‘Well then there bạn go!

X!’ He would surely have sweet dreams and they would be all about her…
‘What time does your flight leave?’, he asked. ‘In 3 hours, yours?’ ’15 phút after yours…’ They sat in the back of a cab to the airport, holding hands. Their fingers were softly stroking each other as that was the only intimacy they could handle without breaking down completely. ‘So, you’ll come to my birthday right?’, she asked hopefully. ‘I wouldn’t want to miss it for the world.’, he squeezed her hand, ‘And then you’ll come over to Luân Đôn for my birthday?’ She nodded, ‘No way I’m missing bạn celebrating your birthday for once.’ He smiled, she was the only reason he was celebrating his birthday, he hoped that she would stay a little longer and he could hiển thị her around London. ‘I’m going to miss you.’, he suddenly blurted out.

After a while they both pulled back, but it lasted a while before they opened there eyes. ‘And then they say there’s nothing good about goodbye.’, Lisa smirked which in turn made him smile.
‘Morning honey! Look I made breakfast and I even got bạn flowers!’, Hugh pointed to the hoa hồng he had put on the bàn in the dining room. Jo sighed, ‘You don’t have to do this, bạn know…’ ‘Do what? I’m just trying to be a good husband.’ ‘I know and I appreciate that you’re trying and have been trying really hard ever since bạn got back, but… bạn don’t have to fake it anymore Hugh…’ ‘Fake it…? What do bạn mean?’ ‘Hugh, please… I know… and I didn’t want to accept it at first, but… I think it’s time I do, we both do…’ Hugh blushed, ‘What… what exactly do bạn know?’ ‘That bạn really are in tình yêu with Lisa.’ ‘I-I…’ ‘Shh, let me explain first.

And now… bạn made me breakfast and both me flowers, which in itself is sweet, but look at the contents. It’s all fruit, bánh mì nướng and yoghurt while bạn know I always eat an English breakfast and then the roses…, bạn know they’re certainly not my yêu thích flowers…’ Hugh stared sadly at his feet. ‘I’m sorry, I was just trying to…’ ‘I know, bạn were trying to save our marriage one last time… but bạn were really projecting all the things bạn want to do with her on me… am I right?’ Hugh stared at his wife then closed his eyes swallowed and nodded. ‘Do bạn tình yêu her?’ ‘I-I… I don’t know, those feelings they’re all so… it’s just been a long time since I felt like this about someone… I just know I miss her and… I kind of want to be with her even if I can just hold her and nothing else.’ Jo nodded, ‘So I guess it’s time bạn act on your feelings then. Act selfish for once in your life and go be happy, go get your girl…’ ‘You don’t mind?’ ‘Of course I do, but… sometimes facing your fears isn’t as scary as bạn thought it would be. We’ve lived apart for so long, I’m kind of used to it. It’s time we both di chuyển on.’ Hugh nodded, ‘I never thought bạn would be the one to tell me this, bạn really have changed. Thank you, thanks for everything, for raising the children so well…’ ‘My pleasure Mr. Laurie, now scoot, you’ve got a plane to catch!’
Hugh stood nervously in front of Lisa’s apartment in New York, he had no idea how he was going to tell her he left his wife for her, he just hoped she didn’t have a boyfriend hoặc a one-night stand over. After a few phút of pacing he finally rang her doorbell. ‘Hello?’, he heard her voice. ‘Hey Liz, it’s me…’ ‘Hugh?! What are bạn doing here?’ ‘Can I come up, please?’ ‘Yeah… sure…’ He ran up the stairs and when he hit her floor he smiled when he saw her standing in front of her door waiting for him. ‘What…? What are bạn doing here?’, she asked happily surprised. He just ran straight to her, wrapped his arms around her and swirled her around, before crashing his lips on hers. At first she was too stunned to respond, but when she felt his warms lips softly sucking on hers, she couldn’t resist anymore and gave in. He lifted her up in his arms and they stumbled into her apartment crashing against multiple pieces of furniture. When they finally let go he stared deeply into her eyes, ‘I tình yêu you.’ ‘Ah..I-I… but what about…?’ ‘She wants me to be happy… we chẻ, phân chia, split up… and now, I just want to be with you… brush your hair and feed bạn grapes all ngày long…’ ‘I think I know a better way to spend our days’, she đã đưa ý kiến and winked. Hugh smirked, ‘Whatever bạn want Liz, whatever bạn want.’ She smiled and he carried her into the bedroom as she whispered in his ear that she loved him too…
‘Daddy!’, the 4-year-old yelled, running to her father. ‘Hey honey, what did I tell bạn about running at parties?’, Hugh said, but couldn’t help but smile at his little girl. ‘That I could only do it if mommy doesn’t see it.’, she answered proudly. Hugh laughed and lifted her into his arms as she held her arms wide open to hug him. ‘Daddy?’, she asked, ‘Who is that woman talking to mommy?’ Hugh looked over at his wife and smiled lovingly at her before looking at the person she was talking to, which turned out to be his ex-wife. ‘That is Jo, she’s Billy’s, Charlie’s and Becca’s mommy.’ ‘O… can we go see her? I wanna see Becca’s mommy.’, the girl đã đưa ý kiến smiling. Hugh thought for a moment, but decided it would be okay for Madeline to meet Jo. Madeline loved her big brothers and especially her big sister and was always asking why Lisa wasn’t her mommy and who was…
´Thank you.´, Lisa đã đưa ý kiến as Jo entered her dressing room. Jo just nodded. ´I-I just... I want bạn to know how grateful I am that you… did what bạn did. I really… owe you.’ ‘You don’t owe me anything Lisa, I can see how happy bạn made him, everybody can… and I could never make him that happy, neither did he make me as happy as he makes you. He really loves bạn and I’m happy for him, for the both of you.’ ‘Thank you… I.. I hope you’ll find the same thing someday, hoặc maybe bạn have found it already…’ Jo smiled, ‘Matt is a great guy, I haven’t been this happy in years with someone either.’ ‘That’s great to hear.’, Lisa smiled, she was happy Jo found someone. The woman stood in silence for a moment while Lisa fixed her hair. ‘I think I should go now. I just want to ask bạn one thing, if that’s okay?’ Lisa nodded, ‘Of course.’ ‘Please promise me you’ll always tell him the truth and that you’ll take good care of him even in bad times?’ ‘I will, I promise. I really tình yêu him and I don’t think that will ever fade.’ Jo nodded and smiled as she left the bride alone for the last phút before her wedding.
‘Jo!’, Hugh đã đưa ý kiến as he saw her walking away from his wife. ‘Hey, Hugh! Good to see you, bạn look good.’ Hugh nodded, ‘This is Maddie, my cute 4-year-old.’, he đã đưa ý kiến as Madeline pulled his hair. ‘Are bạn Becca’s mommy?’, the girl asked. Jo smiled, ‘Yes dear, I’m Becca’s mommy.’ Maddie giggled and quickly hid her face in her fathers neck. Hugh smiled at her and softly stroke over her long black curly hair. ‘You have very pretty hair, Maddie.’, Jo said. ‘Daddy always says I have princess hair, like mommy’s. Carry has princess hair too, but hers isn’t as curly.’ Both Jo and Hugh smiled at the little girl. ‘Baby, why don’t bạn go play with Carry and help mommy a little. We have to take good care of her , right?’ Maddie nodded, ‘Carry is my little sister, she’s this many’, she held up two fingers as she explained everything to Jo. ‘And we’re also getting a little baby brother hoặc sister, but the baby isn’t here yet, it’s still in mommy’s belly. The baby has to grow very strong first, just like me and Carry.’
Hugh smiled and looked over at his wife, who was sitting down feeding Carry and rubbing her heavily pregnant belly. It certainly was a miracle they were getting another baby. After Madeline they had been trying a lot before Lisa got pregnant with Carry and after they got her, no one thought she would be able to have yet another baby. But then it happened, at the age of 49, she managed to get pregnant again and she was now carrying a very healthy baby that was supposed to be born in less than a month.
When Maddie ran away to her mother and sister Hugh turned to Jo. ‘I can tell you’re really happy with them, bạn look much years younger.’ ‘I feel years younger.’, Hugh answered, ‘They really mean the world to me, all my children do.’ Jo nodded and felt a man’s hand on her shoulder. ‘Hey Hugh.’ ‘Hey Matt, good to see you.’, he đã đưa ý kiến to his ex-wife’s husband. ‘Yes, just let me say that bạn have the most adorable children in the world.’ Hugh smiled, ‘I really do. Please excuse me.’, he đã đưa ý kiến as he had a sudden urge to be near his wife.
‘Hey honey’, he đã đưa ý kiến as he pressed a Kiss on her lips. ‘Hey… I know I’ve already đã đưa ý kiến it 20 times today, but… happy 5th anniversary.’ ‘Happy 5th anniversary.’, Hugh replied as he pulled Lisa into his lap and kissed her a little thêm passionate this time. ‘I tình yêu you.’ ‘I tình yêu bạn too.’, she đã đưa ý kiến and kissed him once again as their baby kicked fanatically between them…
