Second Chance Final Chapter

Last Chapter! HAPPY BIRTHDAY POPS!

Hearing the lightest noise he moved his arm over to pull his wife back to his chest but when his appendage found nothing but the covers he snapped his eyes open. Looking to the spot she was supposed to be sleeping he saw nothing but an empty bed and then turned to his back as he realized what he had heard. Glancing to the window he saw it barely dawn and sighed. Sitting up and tossing the covers to the side he stood from the bed and made his way across the dimly lit room. Pushing open the bathroom door, steam moved out around him as he quietly walked over to the shower. Peeking around the stone wall he saw her standing there under the spray of the hot water. She had her back to him and hadn't seemed to notice him as she went about washing her hair. Allowing his eyes to follow the suds as they ran down her back and over her ass he licked his lips and felt his cock twitch. As quietly as he could he stepped into the shower behind her and wrapped his arms around her middle, holding her close to him as she let out a small yelp in surprise and flinched.

"God what is wrong with you? I swear I am going to hang a bell around your neck." you told him, hearing him chuckle.

"I should be the one asking what is wrong with you, waking up at the crack of dawn." he told her in a deep voice still laced with sleep.

"I guess I just got used to it with work." you shrugged.

Humming he leaned back some so she coudl finish rinsing her hair but rubbed his hands up and down her wet hips, giving a squeeze when his lust started growing. "Well you don't have to wake up to work anymore so how about you catch up on some missed years of sleep lass." Hearing her only hum that she wasn't tired in response he ran his hand over her hair as she finished rinsing it out. "Then I'll just have to fix that won't I?" Kissing her neck and shoulder he noticed the marks there from only a few days ago and grinned. Nipping at the sensitive spot she had he felt her flinch and smirked into the nape of her neck. Moving his hands back down to her hips he gave a firm squeeze.

You didn't get time to react before he was spinning you around and claiming your lips with his. Grabbing his shoulders to keep from falling as he backed you up into the shower wall you let your eyes slip close, the captain quick to dominate the kiss.

Rolling his tongue around her mouth he bent down to grab the back of both of her thighs, lifting her up so he could stand straight. The water was running down his face some and over his body but he couldn't give a damn. Pushing his hand up her thigh some so he could rub her slit he felt a slickness there and grinned into her mouth. As his finger slipped into her she moaned around his mouth. Pinning her against the wall he pumped his first one then two of his fingers in and out of her. His cock was already rock hard and he knew he wouldn't be able to hold back much longer but he was always sure about readying her. Kissing down her throat he nipped and sucked at her skin, feeling her fingers grip his shoulders and back a little harder. Lifting her up a little higher he felt her tense but when he took her nipple into his mouth her back was soon trying to arch off the wall. Sucking on her breast and working her sex with his fingers he soon felt her walls clenching around his digits. Smirking around her nipple as he listened to her cry out in bliss he let her pebble leave his mouth with a 'pop'. Lowering her down he pressed the head of his cock against her entrance and slowly impaled her on him.

Still not fully over your first orgasm you felt your toes curl as Ed lowered you onto his cock. Even after being married now for two months your body still wasn't used to the stretch that came with taking your soulmate. He never pushed you though, he was always patient, always asking if you were alright. Holding onto the thick muscles of his shoulders you turned your face to catch his lips as he moved to kiss you once again. Ever so slowly he started moving you, sometimes holding you to the wall so he could thrust his own hips.

Kissing her lips roughly he felt that pressure building in his lower pelvis and growled. Breaking the kiss he trailed his mouth down her chin and her throat to give attention there as he reached over to turn off the water. Holding her now with one hand gripping her ass and the other pushing up to hold her back he turned and started towards the bedroom.

You knew what he was doing, "Ed no. The bed is going to get all wet and ahh..." Tensing a bit when he bit a little harshly at your neck you felt him lick over it with the flat of his large tongue, soothing the pain.

" 't'll dry." he mumbled around her skin. Sucking marks into her neck and throat he laid her down on her back for a moment but didn't move onto the bed himself only leaned over her. Pulling out of her he kissed his way down her body, stopping to nip at both of her nipples before continuing on. Getting to the treasure between her thighs he licked his lips before diving in. Lapping up her slit he wasted no time before pushing his tongue into her. Swallowing down what she had to give him he flicked the tip over her clit and smirked when her body gave a flinch.

He held your hips still when they went to move, smacking your thigh and making you whimper as your second orgasm peaked. With your back arching as best it could you moaned your love's name in ecstasy until your voice was hoarse. After another climax that was more intense than the first your body fell to the bed. As his tongue lapped at you again you recoiled or at least you tried to but if the strongest man in the world didn't want you moving, you weren't going anywhere. Whimpering you tugged on his thick calloused fingers as his mouth continued it's assault on your now overstimulated pussy. "E...ed... pl...please. No...ah...nomoreplease...."

Grinning he gave one last long lap up her quivering cunt, kissing her pubic mound. Standing back to full height from where he had moved to kneel he rubbed her thighs, allowing his eyes to rake over her breathtaking form. Getting an idea he felt his painfully hard cock twitch. Licking his lips he pushed his hand under her lower back and gently moved her up to the middle of the bed before he flipped her over to lay on her front. This seemed to maker her tense some but he rubbed her back and down to her supple ass cheeks. "Ya trust me darlin'?" he asked and saw her nod. Humming he grinned softly and leaned down to kiss between her shoulder blades. Peppering the soft skin of her back with kisses he held himself up with one hand while the other pushed under her lower abdomen and lifted her up so she was on her knees with her top half still on the bed.

You stayed completely still as he moved you, focusing on his soft lips currently kissing your back. When you felt the tip of his member press against your pussy again your eyes fluttered close as he entered you. His cock was hitting all new spots from this angle and your eyes were quick to roll back behind your lids. It just felt so damn good and based on his deep groans and grunts you imagined it felt good to him as well. As soon as he was in his hand moved to grip your hip in what you knew had to be a bruising hold. As his hips pulled back and snapped back into your ass you couldn't stop the moan that left your lips.

Rocking his hips into her ass he closed his eyes as the pleasure got too great. She was tight to begin with but this position made it almost impossible to enter her. Adjusting himself to hold his body above hers with his forearm he was now directly over her own body and dipped his head to nip and kiss at her shoulder. It didn't take too long before he felt her walls fluttering around his shaft. "Gonna cum for me lass?" he asked, his voice deep and gravely. When she gave a soft whine he chuckled softly and kissed her neck. "Come on darlin' just one more time tonight." Dipping the hand on her hip under her, he stroked her swollen little bud with the pad of his middle finger. In no time at all she was crying out again, her walls constricting around him like a vice and sending him into his own climax.

You barely registered the deep groaning as it vibrated the area on your neck and shoulder. The pooling heat in your pelvis and the powerful grip he had on your body making your orgasm seem to last longer. Gripping the bedding so hard your knuckles turned white you trembled slightly as the both of your highs began to subside, a feeling of extreme fatigue hitting you. Unable to register much you gasped weakly as his cock slipped from you, your body flinching.

Knowing his wife was well past her limit he grinned softly as he helped lay her down on their bed. Kissing her hip he stood and moved to go clean himself up. Grabbing a rag he rung out the hot water from it and moved to clean her up as well. Seeing the river of white leaking from her made him want to go another round but he shook his head, no, she was done for now. Seeing her teeth chattering a bit he hurried back to toss the rag in the sink. Pulling the covers out from under her some he moved into bed beside her, cuddling up to her as close as possible. Wrapping them both up he felt the exhausted kiss to his throat followed by her groggily, half asleep 'love you'. Grinning he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head, "Love you too lass now get some sleep."

..........................................

"Oww! Stop hitting the same place you big jerk." you snapped, rubbing the stinging area on your ass that he had now smacked several times with the blunt side of the wooden training sword.

"If you'd block it, it wouldn't hurt." Seeing her brows lower and her eyes cut at him he quickly blocked her next spur of swings. Going to tap her with sword again, this time across her side and stomach he watched as she turned to receive the blow across her ass yet again.

Arching your back some as the tender area was thrust into pain again you winced through your teeth. Having enough you let out a frustrated growl and chunked the sword to the ground.

Watching her throw down the sword and turn on heel to start walking away from him he dropped his arms, "You're never gonna learn if ya give up just because of a sore ass."

Deepening your frown at the annoyance in his words you continued walking. "I told you I didn't want to do this today."

"You've been making excuses all week Y/n. How do you expect me to make you into a decent pirate if..."

Spinning on heel you turned back to see he had been following you, "That's just the thing Ed. I never, not once said I wanted to be a pirate. In fact you didn't even ask me if it was something I wanted." you told him but saw his brow knit together. "A pirate's life isn't for everyone."

"Well maybe you should have thought about that before you married one." he grit out before he could stop himself, his own temper flaring up.

Dropping your shoulders you knit your brows and shook your head some, looking up at him. "I didn't think I would have to choose between Whitebeard and Edward." When he only continued looking down at you with a look he had never given you before you felt your rollercoaster emptions peaking again, tears threatening to spill from your eyes. Quickly looking down you let out a breath and turned back around, walking back towards home and knowing this time he wasn't behind you.

After grabbing the cloth bag from under the bed you let the house, needing some fresh air while also not wanting Ed to come in and see you crying your eyes out. For the past week now you had been super emotional. While you knew the cause of it all your husband didn't and you could tell your crazy emotions were starting to take a toll on his patience. It seemed as if every little thing set you off... and you hated it. After every little spat you would end up crying more simply because of how horrible you felt. There was one night this week when he had simply commented how the tea you had made him wasn't as strong as it normally was and you had instantly made a big deal out of it.

Flopping down under one of the trees that were a ways away from anything or anyone you let out a deep sigh, pulling out the ball of soft wool and needles. "You are making me seem like a bitch." you mumbled down to your belly. Looking over the small blanket to make sure none of it had came undone since you had worked on it some last night you felt your previous emotions dim as happiness and anxiousness took over.

You had just recently came to the conclusion that you were in fact pregnant, your period having been more than three weeks late before you caught on. Asking Zella about the whole situations as well some of the early symptoms you were having because you knew if Marco found out he would run to his father the both of you concluded that you were in fact with child. Your best friend was more than excited, telling you how fun it would be to have two babies running around close to the same age. It made you giggle when you thought of how all in all your baby would be considered Marco and Zella's uncle or aunt even though they would be a bit younger. As much as you wanted to hurry to Edward and tell him the great news you wanted a more special way of telling him as well as making sure everything went right for the first few weeks. So now that you were about two months or so, by your calculations... really there was no telling the exact date since your husband barley let you be but you guessed it was somewhere around that ball park. Also it just so happened that your dear husband's birthday was coming up, his 75th birthday to be exact you decided that would be the perfect time to tell him.

A blanket, a soft, small baby blanket was your way of telling him he was going to be a father. You had managed to get to the shops to buy the white and purple wool you needed without him knowing. All week you had been working on the blanket when he wasn't around, quickly hiding it under your bed when he would walk in. For having only ever started knitting when Zella showed you how to months ago you thought it was turning out pretty good. There was a few times you had had another emotional breakdown, crying like a baby yourself at the dropped stitch but after working on it for two and a half weeks now you were almost done. Just in time too seeing as his birthday was tomorrow.

Still there was so much you had left to do and that was the reason you hadn't been able to spend much time with him like you wanted. Although the whole sparring thing was because you didn't want something to happen to the baby. He was right about you making excuses all week but you just couldn't tell him yet. Hopefully once he saw what you had been doing all would be forgiven. Taking a deep breath you started working on the blanket once again. If you wanted to make his cake and have it ready by tomorrow you would need to finish this soon. Letting out a loud yawn you shook your head, "Sorry munchkin' sleep will have to wait just another day."

......................................

She had been gone all day. After calming down he had went back home to find her and finally talk about what had been going on but she wasn't there. Checking Marco's he found her not there either, Zella and the rest of his sons saying they hadn't seen her all day. Just where the hell was it she kept running off too. Seems like all week she had been avoiding him at all cost. Even at nights they would eat, well he would eat, she would scarf down her food like a starved man before quickly moving to take a shower without him. Then once he was done with his own shower he would come out and find her already passed out on the bed, looking completely exhausted.

Sighing he rubbed the back of his head. He had been thinking the past week and a half over, wondering if he had possibly done anything that would have angered her but he couldn't think of anything. She was just acting so strange, getting worked up over the littlest things. It was unlike her and it worried him constantly, not in the six months they had been married had they ever felt so far apart. Dropping his hand to his side he glanced back to their home and got an idea. He would make them supper, cook for her so when she came home from where ever she was they could just sit down and relax. Talk.

He had waited and waited, long after the sun had fell below the horizon but still she hadn't come back. The stir-fry he had made was now cold where his temper was now flaring. Growling loudly he stomped over to the door, deciding it was high time he went and found out what his little wife was hiding from him but before he could grab the handle the door was opening slowly.

Pushing open the door you covered a yawn and shook your head before running straight into something hard. Snapping your eyes open you looked up to see Ed there. "I'm sorry I didn't see yo..."

"Where the hell have you been?"

Hearing how deep his voice was made you flinch, anger clear in it. Apparently you didn't answer fast enough for him because he was soon asking you if you knew what time it was. Licking your lips you tried to keep your emotions under control. "I know, I didn't mean to be out so late, I fell asleep under a tree and then I had to go help Izo with something and..."

"Enough. I've had enough of your lies."

"Ed I'm not..."

"Not what? Avoiding me? Staying out past dark almost every night?" Seeing her go to try to speak again he cut her off, his eyes dropping to the bag she seemed to always be carrying. "And just what the hell is in that bag?"

Stiffening when he snatched the bag from you, you quickly grabbed ahold of it and tried to pull it back from him. "No. Ed stop it. Let go." Hitting his hand when he wouldn't release the bag.

Gritting his teeth he released the bag making her fall back on her ass. Looking down at her he watched as she held the bag close to her chest, refusing to meet his eyes. Huffing out he shook his head, "You know what just forget it. Keep your secrets, keep sneaking around and avoiding me. I don't know what is going on with you but I'm through trying to get you to open up to me. If there's another man then..."

"You think I'm being unfaithful to you?" you asked in shock, your voice coming out as nothing more than a whisper.

Seeing the tears rolling down her cheeks he felt a clenching in his heart and swallowed hard. "I don't know what to think." he spoke and watched her eyes drop back down. Closing his eyes he turned and started walking away. "I'm going to bed. Do whatever you want."

Hearing the bedroom door close you bit your lip to hold back your sob. Continuing to sit there for a time as your heart throbbed you sniffled and wiped your cheeks before standing. Walking to the kitchen you saw the table set, two untouched bowls of food sitting in you and Ed's place. Looking towards the bedroom you felt your heart clench again and swallowed hard as tears continued to roll down your cheeks. Placing the food he had cooked the two of you up in the fridge you cleaned up before grabbing everything you needed to start his cake. Yawning again you shook with leftover sobs but rubbed your eyes. There was no time for sleep, you would have to stay up all night if you were to finish his cake before tomorrow morning. Thankfully you had asked Izo and the others to take over cooking the actual food which they had quickly agreed to.

As you mixed the batter and poured it into the pans you thought on everything Ed had said and felt your heart continue to ache. You couldn't blame him, if the roles were reversed you wouldn't be able to help but think something was going on as well but it hurt to know he thought you may be having an affair. Did he think so little of you? You were starting to rethink this whole idea, as much as you wanted to surprise your love this seemed to be taking a toll on your marriage. Hopefully though he would understand tomorrow.

As the sun started to rise you could barely keep your eyes open. The two tier cake was iced and decorated, one layer being chocolate and the other your own creation of a sake cake. You had the blanket finished, folded neatly and wrapped in a box you had tied a big blue bow around. Wanting to do a bit more for him you had even made him those couple coupons you had heard Trish talking about she had made her husband for Valentines day once. Binding the little heart shaped paper with the same blue ribbon you placed it on the top of the box holding the blanket and put them in the closet on top of the washer, knowing he wouldn't be likely to see them there. Taking the cake over to Zella and Marco's until the party you hurried back over to cook him breakfast before he woke. Two eggs, heart shaped pancakes, bacon, toast and even some hash. Placing it on the table you grinned as you fixed his tea and set it down perfectly beside his plate and silverware. Getting out the butter and syrup you heard the door to the bedroom open and looked up with a smile. "Good morning Capta..."

"Mornin'."

That was all he said as he walked out the door without even looking your way. The smile on your face instantly fell and you felt your lip begin to tremble. Looking down to the birthday breakfast you had made him you watched a tear fall to the table. Maybe he just had something to do and then he would come back. That was what you kept telling yourself but as another hour came you knew he wasn't coming back and wrapped up his plate before placing it in the fridge. Cleaning up the house you let out a sigh as you left to go decorate the place where you all were throwing the party at.

................................

As the day drew on you hadn't seen Ed once which was on one hand good because that meant that he still didn't know what you were doing hopefully. On the other hand though you hadn't seen your husband all day... and right after a fight too. After much hard work the party was ready to start. You and his sons had decorated the same place where your wedding had been. There was a pile of wood and such ready to be lit for a bonfire, the food was ready along with the cake and you had even managed to bring his present here. Everything just looked so perfect, all your hard work well worth it. You just couldn't wait to see the look on his face. Smiling you looked to Zella and the others who all were just setting up the tables and chairs. "I'm going to go see what Ed's doing." you told Zella and saw her nod.

"Okay. I'd say about another thirty minutes and everything will be ready."

Nodding you smiled down at your heavily pregnant friend. "Thank you so much for all your help Zella."

"Of coarse, what is family for if not to be there for one another." she smiled.

Looking down when your chest flooded with warmth you gave her another smile before you went to go fetch your soulmate. Checking the house and then town you didn't see him anywhere and furrowed your brows.

"If your looking for Edward dear I saw him earlier going down to the pier with a fishing pole earlier."

Thanking Mr. Xander you headed down to the fishing pier. Seeing the man that held your heart sitting on the end with his legs dangling over the edge you smiled to yourself and walked towards him. Wrapping your arms around his neck from behind you leaned around to kiss his cheek. "There you are. I've been looking for you." you said but he didn't even look at you and your only response was a grunt. Furrowing your brows you licked your lips. "Catch anything?" you asked him but he didn't respond. Blinking you moved to sit beside him. Hearing him sigh you felt a slight throb in your chest, was it you or him you were feeling? Continuing to sit there for a while, neither of you saying a word you looked out over the water that was as smooth as glass. Wringing your fingers you glanced up to him but saw him still paying you no mind. "Ed..."

"Why are you here?"

A little stunned you took a moment to answer. "I... I just wanted to hang out with you... fish together."

"Oh so we can spend time together but only when it's convenient for you."

Blinking away tears you stared down at the water. "It's not like that..."

"Isn't it?" Feeling that clenching in his chest again he stood.

"You're leaving?" you asked in a quiet voice.

"Now you know how it feels." When she didn't reply or even look at him he tilted his jaw. "Here you want to fish, fish." he spoke, all but shoving the rod into her hands.

You could only sit there as he walked away. Holding his pole just enough to keep it from falling into the water your shoulders shook with sobs and tears rolled down your cheeks. You hated this. You should have just told him from the start, hell you should have told him right then but the party was so close and you wanted him to be surprised, you wanted to do something nice for him. Now though none of it seemed worth it, you wouldn't even be able to see his reaction. While yes you could probably still go you wouldn't, all of this was for him, you wanted him to be happy and as it looked right now his happiness didn't seem to include you.

Watching the sun go down on the water you closed your puffy eyes when you heard the loud group of pirates yell out 'surprise'. Feeling a strong clenching in your heart you sighed out long and deep. "Happy Birthday Ed." you mumbled. Siting there for a few moments longer you reeled in the line, picking off the bit of seaweed stuck on the hook before pining it up neatly and standing. With a heavy heart you started your walk back home, seeing the smoke rising into the sky from the bonfire. Leaning the fishing rod against the side of the house you moved inside and closed the door. All in all it was probably a good thing you didn't go, with the lack of sleep, food and with not showering since the day before yesterday you weren't really up for partying. Removing your shoes you walked to the master bathroom and closed the door. Once you had taken a most likely too hot shower you slipped on one of his shirts and a pair of panites, sniffing the material and feeling your eyes fill with tears once again as you crawled into the empty bed. Putting in your earbuds you turned on the music and closed your eyes, the long breath you breathed out shaky and deep.

...................................

The party had been going on for a little over an hour now and she didn't see her friend anywhere. At first she thought that she was coming with Pops and Marco but that wasn't the case as both men had showed up without her. Getting caught up with everything for a while she figured Y/n had just been standing at a different place or she had moved to get something but now she was sure she wasn't here. Everyone was eating and drinking now, having a good time, something Y/n should be doing since she was the person responsible for all of this. Marco had told her that Pops had always blew off his birthday, that yes they would drink and eat a little more but nothing like this. Y/n had done everything she coudl think of to make her husband's special day one to remember. To know that she was now missing it made her knit her brows in worry.

"What's wrong dear?" Marco asked as he brought over another plate of food for his pregnant wife.

"Do you know where Y/n is?" she asked.

Looking around he tried to peek behind all of the guests to see if he saw his father's love but alas he didn't . "Maybe she left to go get something."

Shaking her head she looked back to her husband. "I haven't seen her since before the party started."

"She wasn't here when I brought Pops here?" he asked and saw her shake her head. Blinking he placed down their plates. "I thought she was already here waiting that's why I brought him." Don't tell him that they had started the party when she wasn't even here to see the big man be surprised. Quickly scanning the large group of people yet again he didn't see his all in all mother's face and frowned. Snapping his eyes to the birthday man himself he saw him sitting in his chair alone, drinking and eating. He had known the man since he was a child himself and so he coudl tell something was wrong, a forced smile on his face. His father and Y/n were normally not too far from one another so seeing him like this and her no where in sight told him that something bad had happened.

"Do either of you know where Y/n is?" Vista asked his brother and sister in Law as he walked over.

"She's not here."

"What do you mean she's not here."

Hearing her husband go to talk with Vista and Jozu who had also walked over Zella stood when she noticed Pops lifting the wrapped box that set beside his chair. Knowing what was in that box the due any day woman stood and hurried over to the massive man. "No, Pops you can't open that yet."

Lifting his eyes from the box he had been looking at he saw his daughter moving towards him a little too fast. Quickly catching her carefully as she almost tripped he stood her back up carefully, Marco hurrying over. "Now Zella you shouldn't be rushing around like that..."

"Zella are you alr..."

"I'm fine." she quickly told her husband, holding her belly as she lifted her eyes back to Whitebeard. "You can't open that gift yet, not without Y/n here."

Seeing his father tense up at the name of his wife Marco knit his brows some. "Pops where is Y/n?"

"No tellin'." he huffed before he took a long drink from the bottle of sake. Setting the bottle down he moved to remove the paper from the box when Zella grabbed his hand with her small one.

"Pops please. I don't know why she isn't here now but you can't open this, not after she worked so hard on all of this." Zella told him with pleading eyes.

"What do you mean on all of this?"

"Pops, Y/n is the one that planned all of this, she's the one that wanted to throw you a surprise party." Marco told him in a deep voice.

"She made all the plans, she made the cake, she helped cook, she helped decorate, all of this was her. All week she's been making sure everything was perfect." Jozu spoke.

Knitting his brows he looked over all their faces and then it all sunk in and he felt nothing but a God awful guilt take over his heart. Without a word he stood and went to search for his wife, box in hand. All those things he had assumed, all those things he had said. "You fucking asshole." he cursed himself as he walked to the pier where he had left her all alone at. "Crying at that, don't forget, you left your crying wife all alone, worthless bastard." he grit out. Even though she wouldn't look up at him he had knew. A Surprise birthday party, that's what she had been doing. She wasn't avoiding him, she wasn't seeing another man... God why, why in the hell had he ever said that to her. He knew he had hurt her feelings, he could feel it but still he had continued to take his own hurt and anger out on her.

Getting to the pier he saw it empty and frowned. She wasn't here. Using their connection he was led back to their home and in the light of the moon he saw his fishing rod leaned up against the house. There weren't any lights on but her shoes were here. Quietly walking into their bedroom he saw a small lump under the covers a light glowing from her phone laying beside her. Moving to the bedside he leaned over to see her eyes closed, he coudl tell by the slow breathing that she was sleeping but a leftover sob shook her some. Feeling his heat clench painfully, he lit the candle on the bedside table before he set the box on the foot of the bed. Slowly he set down behind her curled up form. The movement must have woken her some because he saw her eyes snap open before hanging low over her eyes.

Glancing behind you, you saw him here and moved to take out your earbuds. Hoping you didn't look too terrible you wiped at your cheeks anyway, just incase. "Y... you're home." you spoke in a soft voice. Pushing yourself up to sit you kept the blanket over your legs and noticed the wrapped gift on the foot of the bed. "What time is it? The party isn't over yet is it?" you asked, grabbing your phone to check the time.

Taking her smaller hand in his large one he looked down and swallowed hard, "Lass I... I don' t know how to describe how truly sorry I am. I acted like such an asshole to you and you didn't do anything."

Looking down you Gave a sad grin, "It's okay. I'm sure it did look pretty bad and I... well I know I've been acting bitchy here lately and..."

"No you..."

"Ed, babe, it's alright. I know I have." You said and gave him an actual small grin.

"That doesn't excuse what I said to you, what I assumed." he said with a shake of his head.

You were quiet for a time before you lifted your eyes to his, "You know I would never do that, that there would never be anyone else, don't you?"

"Yes. Yes darlin' I know that. I was just... you were always leaving and..."

"I know, I'm sorry. Was it all worth it though? Were you surprised?" you asked.

Seeing her kind grin he sighed and smiled. "Yes lass. Thank you. I don't deserve it. I don't deserve you."

"Aw don't say that, you deserve so much more." you told him, moving forward to hug him which he quickly returned.

"I love you lass and I'm so sorry." he spoke into her neck, closing his eyes as he fully embraced her.

Humming you soaked up his warmth and scent. "I love you too Ed. No more apologizing, it's your birthday so you get a free pass." you told him and heard him chuckle softly. Blinking you smiled and bit your lip. "Speaking of..." Leaning back you grabbed the box and moved it to his lap. "Happy Birthday my dear husband."

Looking down at the box he sighed and looked back to her to see her smiling. "Are you sure I deserve a gift?"

"Edward Newgate you open that box or I will throw you in to the ocean." you threatened and heard him laugh.

Nodding he moved to start ripping the paper, "Yes ma'am." Removing the bow and then paper he pulled off the top and lifted the heart shaped paper. Seeing the words couple coupons on top he rose his brows. Flipping through them he smiled more and more at the different things written. "Free foot rub, Sensual Massage, My choice of dessert.... " on and on they went and as he got to the more sexual ones he felt his brows raise and his cheeks heat up, a large smile on his face. Humming he glanced over to her to see her blushing beet red as well and chuckled. "I have to say lass this may be the best gift I have ever gotten." he told her and saw her smile but look down.

Taking the coupon book you set it on the bed next to your knee. "Okay you big perv now the other half." you said with a nod down to the folded blanket in the box.

Grinning he looked down to the box again and saw something he could tell was knitted. "Hmm and what do we have here, socks... a scarf?"

"You don't even wear a shirt why would I make you a scarf."

"I'd wear a scarf if you made me one darlin'." he told her and saw her smile. Lifting the item up he saw it was a square, a blanket it looked like but the thing was much too small to fit him. Seeing something on it he held it up so he coudl look the whole thing over. He recognized his jolly roger first but there was also words. "Future Captain in Training" he read aloud. Blinking he furrowed his brows and read over the words another time before the size of the blanket again ran through his mind. Snapping his eyes to her he saw her looking at him with the softest smile he had ever seen. As it all sunk in he felt his mouth go dry and his breath catch in his throat. "Y..you're..." he couldn't even finish his sentence, his heart hammering in his chest.

Licking your lips you felt more tears fill your eyes and smiled. "One down, four to go."

In an instant he had her in his arms, standing and spinning around the room. Feeling his own eyes tear up some he laughed. Lifting her up above his head he kissed over her belly where his child grew. HIS CHILD. He was going to be a father, a real father. "Ohhh." clearing his throat he smiled so large his face hurt, "I lied lass, This, this is the best gift I have ever gotten." he spoke in a thick voice. Easing her down he held her close and kissed her lips with all the love he felt. "Thank you darling. Thank you so very much."

Hugging him as he carried you across the hills back towards the party you felt all the heartache over the past few days leave you.

"There she is."

"Pops found her."

"Good now we can all start drinking again."

"Now all you wait one second. I want to show everyone what it s my lass gave me... Seems like there is something else we need to be celebrating." He told them all and saw some confused faces looking their way, he did note however that Zella was smiling largely. So she knew, figures. "Want to help me out here some darlin'."

Nodding you leaned up and smiled as you helped Ed hold up the blanket for everyone to see. A few seconds later the whole island erupted into loud cheers and clapping. Smiling you looked to see Ed smiling ear to ear.

Meeting his wife's eyes he pulled her into another kiss, the rest of their friends and family continuing to yell and cheer around them. Breaking the kiss he laid his forehead on hers. "I'll love you forever lass."

"mmm Promise?" you smiled lovingly, twirling his hair around your finger.

Kissing her forehead he sighed. "Cross my heart."

"I love you too old man. Forever." you smiled, pulling him into another kiss.
