Chapter 37 Part 4

About 5 minutes later, I turn into my apartment complex as I turn right then left to drive down to my building.

"So what are we going to do?" I ask as I turn the wheel to park Sid's Range Rover besides my car.

"We can do anything," Sid says as I unbuckle my seat belt and turn the car off.

"How about a movie?" I ask as I hand Sid his keys and open my door.

"We can do that,"
Sid smiles as I get out of the car.

Closing the door, I walk up onto the sidewalk and meet Sid there.
He grabs my hand as we walk and go up the stairs to my apartment door.

I walk over to the side where I had alot of flowers at.

"What are you going?" Sid asks as I lift up a little pot.

Turning it upside down, I take off the bottom to get the spare key.

"Just getting my spare key, my keys are in my bag at your place," I say as I walk over to the door and unlock the door.

"You may enter," I say as Sid smiles and walks into the apartment.
I follow him in as I close and lock the door.

"Can I get on the computer for a second?" Sid asks as I turn around and walk into the living room.

"Yeah," I say as I walk over and plop myself down onto the couch.

Grabbing the remote, I turn on the TV to see that it was left on History Channel.

"LC," I say as I change the channel to Discovery to see Mythbusters on.

"What are we watching?" Sid asks as he gets up fron the computer and walks over to me to sit down.

"Mythbusters,"

"Ok,"
He wraps his arm around me and pulls me close to him as I lay my head on his shoulders when our heads meet.

I love this man.

An hour later, Sid removes his arm fron my shoulders.

"I need to go and get changed for the dinner party," Sid says as me and him both stand up.

"Alright, I need to get a shower and get dressed too," I say as I kiss him on the lips.

Sid and me walk over to the door.

"I'll be back around 5:30 to pick you up," Sid says as he kisses me again.

"Alright," I say as I watch him open the door and walks out.

Closing the door, I lock it and head back to my bedroom.

I open the closet as I move things around as I spot my purple in the back.

Grabbing it, I walk over to my dresser as I get my personal items as I head into the bathroom.

Once in the bathroom, I place my dress on the hanger stop as I place my personals on the countier..

Stripping out of my clothes , I open the shower door and walk in as I turn the water on.

15 minutes later, I step out of the shower on a bathroom rug as I walk on another one to reach the linen closet which is by my toilet.

I grab a towel out as I dry off my body and my hair.

Walking to the countier, I place on my personal items as well as panty hoses.

I walk over to the hanging hook as I take my purple thin strapped dress of the hanger
Placing it over my head, Iput my arms out so they can go through.

Once I got it on, I look into the mirror smiling.

I then turn around and walk into my room to my dresser.

Grabbing my jewerly box, I open it to pull out the purple butterfly that Sid got me.

Looking into the mirror, I watch myself place the necklace on my neck.

Smiling, I turn and head over to the closet and kneel down to find my purple high heel shoes.

Grabbing them, I head back into the bathroom to place them onto the floor.

I then grab my hairbrush as I begin to brush my hair. Then I walk over to the already open closet as I pull out my bun strap, its what I call it as well as my make up purse.

Walking back over to the countier, I brush my hair as I place it into a ponytail. Then I use the bun strap to place my hair in it. I roll it as I clip it into place on top of my head.

I then grab my make-up purse as I pull out mascera, pink lip stick and peach color blush.

I open the mascera bottle as I place it on both sets of eyelashes. Then I open the lip stick as I place it on my lips.
Closing my lips and making a kiss face, I place the cap back on it as I grab my blush.

Opening the case, I pick up the brush as I move it in the powder as I place it on both sides of my face.

Looking in the mirror, I smiles as I place the mascera, lip stick, and blush back into the bag as I place it back in the cloest.

I take a seat on the toliet as I place my high heel shoes on.

Getting up, I was maybe an ince taller.

I walk out of the bathroom as I walk over to the dresser again.

Opening another jewerly box, I take out my butterfly earrings that my father got before he passed away.

I close the box as I place the earrings in my ear.

Looking into the mirror, I smiled and cried a little.
I wish my dad could see me.

Turning around, I walk back up front as I look at the mircowave clock which reads 5:15
Sid will be here in 15 minutes.

I walk into the living room as I sit down at my computer.

Moving the mouse, I watch as my montior comes back on as I click to the internet explorer and then just surf the interent.

10 minutes later, I hear a knock at my door.

"Coming," I say as I close out my window and walk over to the door.

Unlocking it, I open the door to see Sid standing there with a nice ligh blue shirt on with nice ironed black dress pants on with dress shoes.

"You looks beauiful babe," Sid says as he leans in and kiss me.

"Thank you, so do you," I say smiling.

"So you ready to go?"

"Yeah, oh let me grab the spare key just in case,"
I walk over to the kicthen table as I grab the single key as I walk back over to the door.

"Let me place that on my key ring," Sid says.
Smiling I gave Sid my key as I watch him place it on her key ring.

"Let's get rolling, we will probably be the last ones there so dont be surprised," Sid says as me and him head down the stairs.
We walk down the sidewalk to his Range Rover.

"Door is unlocked," Sid says as open the door and get in.

Reaching behind me I grab the seatbelt as I buckle up and close the door.

"You ready?" Sid asks as begins his car up.

"Yes I am," I say as he places the car in reverse as he backs out of his parking place and heads down the road.

Then he turns right to the exit.

He then turns left to head down the turns to get to Pittsburgh.
Sidney then grabs my hand as I look over to him

"I love you," I say.

"I love you too," Sid says as he hold my hand tighter.


20 minuts later, Sidney pulls into the parking lot of the Chessecake Factory as he parks close to the building.
He turns the car off as I unbuckle my my seat belt.

"Ready for some dinner?" Sid asks as we both open our doors.

"Yes I am," I say as I climb out of the car and shut the door.

I walk onto the sidewalk as Sid met me there.
He places his arm by his sstomach as it left room for me to grab his arm.

He escorts me into the building as we make our way back to our corner.

"There you are, I didnt thin you would make it in time," Victoria says.

"I told you I'll be here on time and I am with Aaylah," Sid says.

"You look pretty Aaylah," Taylor says as she comes over to me with a little green dress on with green sandals.

"Thank you," I say.

"You and Sid get to sit by me," Taylor says.

"Ok, come on Sid," I say as I follow Taylor as she sits down in her seat besides Troy, Austin, and Alexa.

"Sit down," Taylor says as I sit down.

"You look nice," Troy spoked up.

"Thank you Troy," I say as Sid took his seat beside me.

"Hey dad can me and you talk please?" Sid asks as he stood back up.

"Yes," Troy says as he stands up.

I watch as they walk off.

"Daddy doesnt like you," Taylor says as I turn my attention back over to her as Nathalie came by.

"You look very nice Aaylah," Nathalie says.

"Thank you Nathalie, you do too," I say.

"Can I take a picture with you, Taylor, and my girls?" Nathalie asks.

"Sure," I say.

"Can I sit in your lap?" Taylor asks.

"Sure,"
I let Taylor climb over to my lap.
She wasn't that heavy for a 11 year old.
I watch as Lauren gets into the chair besides me as Alexa sits on her lap as Stephanie is behind us.

"Say chesse," Nathalie says as I smile big.

"Thank you," Nathalie says as her girls get up.
I watch as Trina comes walking over.

"You look pretty Aaylah," Trina says as Taylor moves back over to her chair.

"Thank you Trina," I say as Sid and Troy come back over.

"Can I get a picture of you with Sidney?" Trina asks.

"Sure," I say as I get up and walk over to Sid.
I stand in front of him as Sidney wraps his arms around my waist as I place mine on top.

Trina then took the picture.

"Thank you," Trina says as I walk back over to the table and sit down by Taylor.

"So how do you know your dad doesnt like me?" I ask Taylor while Troy was over by Mario.

"He told mommy and I over heard but daddy shouldnt not like you," Taylor says.

"I know," I say.

15 minutes later, I see LC coming in with Kris on her arm.

"LC is here," Victoria says everyone sits down.
I watch as LC and Kris come walking back here.

"Uncle Troy, Aunt Trina, Taylor,mom!!" LC exclaims as I watch her go over and hug Victoria, then Troy, Trina and came over here to hug Taylor.

"Happy Birthday girl," I say as I get up and hug her.

"Thank you," LC says as she smiles as I watch her then hug Sidney.

As things start to settle down the waiter comes over to the table.

"Hello everyone I'm Maro and I'll be your server for this evening, now would any of you like something to drink.

Me, Sidney, Taylor, and LC all get water as Troy, Trina, Nathalie, Victoria, and Mario got a bottle of whit wine. Lauren and Kris got a coke while the other three Lemieux kids got fruit punch.

"So how has your birthday been bay girl?" Victoria asks as I open my menu up.

"Are we getting a Appetizers LC?" Nathalie asks.

"No thanks, it would take longer for our food to get here," LC says as I smile a little bit.

"Ok," Nathalie says as the waiter came back will all of our drinks.

"I'll be back in a few minutes," He says as he walks off.

"What looks good?" I ask as I ask Sid.

"The BBQ pulled pork sandwich, what about you?" Sid asks.

"I dont know," I say.

"Im getting a piece of chesse pizza," Taylor says.

I turn and look at the salads
I think I will get the grilled chicken tostada salad.

I close the menu.

"What should we get for dessert, so they can make it?" Mario asks.
He's a smart man.

"Strawberry chessecake," LC says.

"Ok we will get two," Mario says as I place my menu down.

"What are you getting babe?" Sid asks as he places his menu on top of mine.

"The grilled chicken tostada salad," I say.

5 minutes later, the waiter comes back.

"Everyone ready to order?" He asks.

"Yes and before we do can we order two strawberry chessecakes?" Mario asks.

"Yes you may," He says.
Then each one of us gave him our order.

"Thank you," He says as he walks back the way he cam.

"So LC has has your day been?" Trina asks.

"It's been good Aunt Trina. Sidney and Aaylah planned me a skating party which was awesome and now I'm having dinner with my family, friends, and my boyfriend," LC says as she kisses Kris.

"No PDA!" Sid exclaims.

"Shut up Buffalo Butt," LC says.

"And you remember you have a pool after party at the house," Nathalie says.

"I remember, Sid, Aaylah are you able to come?" LC asks.

"No we have to get into bed early to head for Columbus tomorrow," I say.

"Whats in Columbus?" Mario asks as he takes a sip of his wine.

"I have to go to a will reading for my cousin Kimberly and Sidney is coming with me," I say as I seen Troy staring at me.

"Don't you have practice?" Troy asks as I knew he was staring at me.

"No I don't, I told coach I couldnt that I have plans," Sid says as Troy excaused himself from the table.

"Troy, Sidneygo get him," Trina says she and Sid got up to go after Troy.
I didnt know hated me this bad.

"It's alright, my brother is very protective of Sid, he doesnt want him to get hurt," Victoria says as I shaked it off.

30 minutes later, the food came out as Sid, Trina, and Troy were not back yet.

"I better go check on them, you ahead and begin to eat," Mario says as he gets up from the table to go find them.

"We don't eat until they get back, I want everyone here," LC says.

"Can we still drink?" Austin asks.

"Yeah," LC says.
I wonder where they are.

20 minutes after that Sidney and Mario walks back to the table as they sit back down.

"Where is Trina and Troy?" Nathalie asks.

"On a walk, Troy as very upset," Mario says.
Just as Mario says that Sidney grabs my hand that was on my lap and hald it over to him.
I look up as I smile.

I did care but I didnt care what Troy thinks of me. I'm my own person, I dont want Sid for his money, I dont want him for playing hockey, I just want Sid for Sid.

"Can we eat?" Taylor asks.

"Go ahead," LC says.
I ruined LC dinner party.

I pick up my fork and begin to eat as so does Sidney.

20 minutes later, I move my plate in the table as Trina and Troy walk back into the resturant.

"Hey Mario will you switch spots with Troy?" Trina asks.

"Sure," Mario says.
They switched places as I can see Troy staring at me.

"So you ready?" Victoria asks as all the waiter's and waiterness came over to the table with a cupcake.

"Oh no, mom," LC says we all begin to clap and sing Happy Birthday to LC.
I watch as she hides her head as the song quickly ends.

"Happy Birthday sweetie," Victoria says as she kisses LC on the cheek.

"Ok mom, thank you everyone," LC says as we all say your welcome.

"Would ready to eat some chessecake?" LC asks as one was down at our end and the other on the other end.

"Yay," Alexa and Taylor say together

I watch as Mario cuts ours into pieces.

"Do you all want one?" Mario asks.

"Yes," I say answering for all of us including Kris and LC.
He cuts a piece as he hands it as we all pass it until each one got a piece.

"Let's pray," LC says as I grab Taylors hand since my other one is still in Sid's hand.

"Dear lord thank you for all of us being her today. We wish you will grace out dessert that we are about to eat. In your name, Aman.

"Aman," I say as I pick up my fork and dig right into the chessecake.

"Good babe?" Sid asks as he takes his first bite.

"Mmhmm," I say as I eat the rest.

5 minutes later, I wait for everyone else to finish as the waiter comes over.

"Was everything good?" he asks.

"Yes, thank you," LC says.

"So who is paying?" He asks.

"Me and that man over there," Mario says as he points to Troy.

"Ok, you can pay half up front, have a nice night," he says.

"Thank you," LC says as the waiter hands Mario the bill.

"Let's go ahead and go pay Troy," Mario says.

"Ok," Troy says as the both get up and head to the front of the resturant.

"That was a good dinner, excuse me," LC says as she makes her way up as I get up and follow her into the bathroom.

"I'm sorry LC," I say as she walks into a stall and closes the door.

"It's ok Aaylah, I knew if he would hear that he would be upset," LC says.

"Thank goodness," I say as I turn around to wash my hands.

"Uncle Troy is very protective of who Sid dates," LC says as I hear a flush as she gets beside me at the sink.

"I kinda figured that, Trina seems to like me," I say as I walk over to get a paper towel.

"Aunt Trina is the easy one to get along with besides Taylor," LC says as she gets paper towel.
We both throw then away as we walk out of the bathroom to see everyone by the front door.

"We weren't going to leave you two," Victoria says.

"I know mom," LC says as we all walk outside.

"So you and Kris going to meet us over by the house?" Victoria asks as everyone besides Sidney and Kris.

"Yes I'll be following you," LC says.

"Alright," Victoria says as she heads to the van.

"So are you two going back to the house or the apartment?" LC asks as we walk in the same direction.

"Yeah we are going to the house, I'm packing an over night back for Aaylah's," Sidney says.

"Ah ok, well see you over there," LC says as she walks to Kris's car as I make my way over then besides Sidney's Range Rover.

I open the door as I hop into the car.
As I closed the door, I watch as Sidney climbs into his car.

"That was a good dinner," Sid says as he closes his door.
I lean back as I grab and put my seat belt on.

"I kinda ruined it by what I said," I say as Sidney turns his car on.

"It was alright, my dad was upset with me not you," Sid says as he places his car in reverse then in driver as he leaves the parking lot and heads out onto the main road.

"Ok Sidney," I say as I felt Sidney grab my hand.
I look over to him as I smiled.

25 minutes later, Sidney follows Kris into the driveway of the Lemieux's house as Sid parks in his normal parking place as he turns off the car.

"Remember I love you," Sidney says as heopens his door.

"I love you too," I say as we let go of hand as I open my door and get out of the car.

Once I get out of the car, Sid met me behind the car as he grabs my hand.

"I seen you made it ok," LC says as she walks ahead of me and Sid.

"I know," Sid says as he was being a smarty pants with her as we walk onto the porch as the the door was opened.

"LC is here," Stephaine says as she goes running into the pool room.

"Say bye when your done," LC says as hrer and Kris go to the left as me and Sid goes to the right.
We walk down and turn right to Sidney's wing door.

He lets go of my hand and opens the door.

"Ladies first," Sid says.

"Thank you," I say as I walk into the wing and walk all the way back to Sidney room.

Once Sidney came in, he closed the door.

"Let me get a bag and I'll get packed up so we can go back to the apartment," Sid says as he walks over to his dresser.

"Its 8:45," I say as I see him then go to the closet to pull off a pair of jeans and dress pants along with a light purple dress shirt.

He then placed all his clothes on his bed as he goes back to this closet for his bag.

"Your sure moving quickly," I say as he stops.

"Just trying to get packed," sid says as he folds everything and places it int the bag as he closest it shut.

"Done," Sid says as he stops in front of me.
He then puts his arms around me as he pulls me closer to him as he passionately kisses me.

"I love you Aaylah Nicole Thomason," Sid says as he looks into my eyes.

"I love you Sidney Patrick Crosby," I say as I look into his eyes as we kiss again.

"Let's get out of here," Sid says.

"Let me get my keys fron out of my bag," I say as I walk over to my bag and open the side poach.
I pull out my keys as I zip the side poach back up.

"You ready?" Sid asks.

"Yes," I say as he opens the door.

"Ladies first," Sid says as I walk out of the door and walk through his wing to the main house.
I walk across the living room as I turn left down the hallway to the pool room.

"Hey didnt think you two were coming?" Troy asks in an attitude.

"We just came to get a few clothes for me, we wanted to let you know we are leaving," Sid says as Lc walks over in her bikani.

"Thanks for the best birthday," LC says as she hugs Sid then me.

"Your welcome, enjoy your party," Sid says as we both head for the door.

I walk out of the door first as I walk back over to the Range Rover.

"Go ahead and get in," Sid says as I walk over to the passinger side of the car.
I open the door and get into the car.

Closing the door, I hear as Sid closes the trunk of his car.
I place my keys in the cupholder as I take my seat belt so I can buckle up.

"You buckled?" Sid asks as hops into the car as he begin the car up.

"Yes Mr.Crosby," I say as he closes his door while he laughs.

"You ready to head home?"

"Yes, I'm getting tired,"
I watch as Sid goes into reverse then drive as he goes out of the Lemieux driveway as he heads down the main road to my apartment complex.

"I am too, you have a fun day besides that epsodie at dinner?"

"Yes I didn I'm nervous about tomorrow," I say as Sid takes a left turn.

"Everything will be ok," Sid says.

"With you there, it will be," I say as Sid grabs my hand.

4 minutes later, Sid takes a right then a left into my apartment complex.
He goes down until the last building shows up as he takes a right to park right beside my car.

"We are here," Sid says as he turns off the car and opens his door.

"Yes we are," I say as I unlock and open the door.
Then I unbuckled, grab my keys and get out of the car.

Once closing the door, I walk on the sidewalk then head up the stairs to my apartment building.

Using my keys, I unlock the door and open the door.
Walking in, I place my keys on the little countier by the kicthen.

"Honey I'm home," Sid says as he walks into the door then shuts it.

"Hey Sid," I say as I head to the back.

"Want me to follow you?" sid asks.

"Yes come on," I say as I walk into my room.
I then strip from my dress as I showed my bra and panties to Sid.

"You must like purple," Sid says as he unzipps his suitcase.

"I do," I say as I open my drawer to get out a old Mario Lemieux shirt, which was my night shirt.
I place it on over my head as I watch Sid get into pj's.

"Nice pj's," I say as I climb into my own bed.

"Thank you, swesome shirt," Sid says as he gets into bed behind me.
I lay my head down on the pillow as I feel Sidney wrapping his arms around me.

"I love you," Sid says.

"I love you too," I say.

"Good night babe,"

"Good night,"
I close my eyes and I hope I dont dream about tomorrow.
