Smith and Tyler extras: back stories, timeline and pictures of inspiration.
“I think you can call me a genius, you know?” John mutters against her ear, burying his face in her neck.
“Why,” Rose asks closing her eyes, just enjoying his kisses.
She wants to get lost in him, but she can't. Not right now.
“You and me and this amazing and isolated chalet as a gift for our second anniversary.”
“You just want to have an excuse to shag me all the time,” she chuckles.
“I don't need an excuse to shag you, I just need to do this,” he tries to slide his hand inside her trousers, but she stops him.
“Not right now,” she tells him.
“Is something wrong?”
Rose rolls her eyes, annoyed.
Men. If you say later they think something is wrong, Rose thinks exasperated.
“Nothing is wrong,” she says, biting her lips.
“Really?” he asks suspicious. “So, why have you looked so nervous the past two weeks?”
Rose's eyes widen in surprise. She didn't think he suspected what is going on with her, but she's wrong. John isn't as clueless as she sometimes likes to think he is.
“Yeah, Rose. You don't need to make your surprised face. You're my wife and I know when you're being weird,” he says, taking a sip of his wine. “I didn't ask anything because I knew when you were ready you'd tell me. I think you're going to now, right?”
Damn, she thinks. He's good.
“Okay, wait here,” she tells him.
She goes to their bedroom and gets the package. She hopes he doesn't freak out when he sees the gift. They’ve never discussed this, so she doesn't know what she should expect from him. The only thing she knows is that she has to tell him and this is the best way she’s found. Rose never imagined it'd happen to her, but it has and she doesn't regret it. She sighs and goes back to the living room.
Rose kneels in front of him and hands him the gift. He raises a brow and smiles.
“Another gift?”
She nods. He smiles at her and starts ripping the paper.
Rose sees the frown on his face when he takes the little pair of Chucks in his hand. His face becomes blank and he just stares at the sneakers. Rose shifts uncomfortably in front of him, but he doesn't say anything.
“These are the smallest Chucks I have ever seen in my life,” he mutters after a minute of silence.
“Yeah,” Rose agrees, unsure of what to say.
He finally looks at Rose's face and she's surprised to find his eyes filled with tears. It's the first time since she’s met him that she’s seen him close to tears.
“Are you...?”
Rose nods and he grins at her.
“We're going to be parents,” she nods again, her own eyes filled with tears too.
“Oh, come here,” she says, pulling him against her in a crushing hug.
Rose doesn't ask why he's almost crying, she doesn't feel it's her place to ask. Sometimes he gets a little emotional about weird things, but never explains why. Once, Donna told her John had his heart broken, but she didn't elaborate what happened and Rose didn't ask. She believed he'd tell her when he was ready, but after so many years, she thinks he'll never tell her. It's okay though, she’s never told him about the emotional abuse she went through when she dated Jimmy.
“Thanks, Rose,” he says kissing her lips.
“For what?”
“Everything, Rose. For everything.”
