I've Been Blessed (TBP Mini Story)

I've been blessed

Reid

I'm walking around the hotel room holding one of the new quad babies my wife has blessed me with. I look at the face of our son Leland. He looks like his mom. I cant help but smile at him. I look at my new lockscreen its identical to the first picture I took with Haley. I start to flash back of the day Haley and I first met.

It's the  summer of 2011. I'm in downtown Greeneville when this girl catches my eye. She has half brown hair half blond. It's like she spilt the two. It's so awesome. I have to know her name. I walk over to her and ask her for her name. I learn it's Haley. We walk into Ma & Pa's and sit at a table. We start chatting and making small conversation. It's short lived when I get noticed by fans. I sign things and take pictures with them. I think there all gone when I see a flash of a camera. I growl and think thank god I have no social media accounts yet... my eyes go wide and I finish the though but my younger brother Neil does and us as a band do. I breath out in frustration. I look up and see Haley fearful as well. I look her and mouth "I'm so sorry I drug you into this" I'm about to get up and leave Haley so she's no longer a target for fans when my phone lights up. It's a text from Kim. I read it and smile and freak out. I get haley's attention cause I'm freaking out and read it "hey Reid, whose that cutie? Do Neil and I a favor and lock her up. I see it you like her by your smile. I want you that happy. I want her to be reason you wanna come back to Greeneville. I strongly approve of her." I see Haley is crying when I finish. I walk over and hug her. Cameras flash. I no longer care cause Haley is gonna stay in my life cause my sister approves of her. I tilt her head up and press my lips on hers and kiss her. She kisses me back. I pull away from her and smile. I get her number and add the contact name as 💋💑 my baby girl 💋💑 I program my number into her phone with the contact name 💪🏻 my man candy 💪🏻 I bid her goodbye. Before I leave I decide to kiss her and take a picture. I set it as my lockscreen. Haley takes a selfie of us together very much in love and sets it has her lockscreen. I peck her lips and leave. I hop in my jeep and smile at Haley. I mouth "I love you baby girl" she mouths "I love you too Reid" I smile and back out and head home. I walk into the house surprisingly I'm alone. I see a note;

Reid,
Neil and I left for Nashville with mom and dad. We won't be back until late, late, late tomorrow. We thought you'll like to be alone if you bring that cutie over. Or invite her over. Love ya big my little brother. See you tomorrow.

I walk up to my room and lay back on my bed. I rub the empty side and hope some day to wake up with Haley on my chest. I lay back when my phone dings. I read the text I miss your kisses. I miss your hugs. I miss your laugh. I wish I could stay over. That part makes me shoot up. My siblings, mom and dad let me have the house to myself incase I want to invite Haley over. I text her I'm alone. My address is (insert any address here) my family is gone until late, late, late tomorrow. They gave me the house for the night incase I wanted to invite you over. Please come over babe. I miss your touch. I send it and get a reply be right over babe. I text back 😉. Tonight we be cuddling each other for the first night. I send that but I get nothing back. I know she's on her way. I turn on my tv and watch Family Guy on 45 to past the time. Around 11 pm I see a car pull up. I race downstairs and out the door. I'm met my gorgeous girlfriend. I kiss her repeatedly and help her into the house. I pick up her bag and carry her to my room. I lay her on on the bed. I crawl in by her. She curls into my side. I hold her close. Her breathing soon shallows. I look down and see she's asleep. I turn off the tv. I cover us up and fall asleep holding what I hope will be my future wife close.

By the time I come back to reality my gorgeous laying on me with tears in her eyes. I lean down and kiss her like I did the afternoon me met. I feel my love grow for her. Moments later the room is full of soft snores signalizing my wife is out. I lay Leland down and look at our quads asleep. I whisper in the wind to the baby we lost. Mom and dad forever love you. Hope heaven is gorgeous. I turn back to the quads. I kiss each head and say goodnight Ollie, Leighton, Meytal, and Leland mom and i love you. I go to oldest room and kiss her head. Night Juliet mom a dad love you. I go back to mine and my wife's room. I crawl back in beside her. I stroke her hair and hold her close. I kiss her head. I pull her to me and I slowly fall asleep with our late baby heavy on my mind. I cry myself to sleep. My last though is I've been blessed with a loving caring wife and 5 gorgeous kids.
