Nick and I arrived at the airport to go to the Caribbean for our honeymoon. We were standing there waiting for our flight. Nick was hugging me from behind. "I love you, Mrs. Carter," Nick said. "I love you, too, Mr. Carter," I said. "Excuse me, are you Nick Carter?" a girl asked. Nick looked at her. "Yes, I am," Nick said. "Can I have your autograph?" she asked. "Sure," Nick said. He gave her his autograph. He hugged her. I smiled. She looked at me. "Can I have your autograph, too, Mrs. Carter?" she asked. "Sure," I said. I signed my name. "Thank you, and congratulations on the marriage, you two definitely belong together, bye," she said before walking off. Our flight was announced. We got on the plane and sat down. Nick held my hand. The plane took off. Five hours later, the plane landed. We got off and got our luggage and headed for the hotel. Nick got a suite and we went up to it. I walked in and looked around. Nick closed the door and locked it. "Wow, this is nice," I said. "Yes, it is," Nick said. I went to the window and looked out at the view and smiled. "Nick, come here," I said. Nick came over and wrapped his arms around me. "Wow, the view's incredible," Nick said. "Yeah, it is," I said. "I love you," Nick said. "I love you, too," I said. I went out on the balcony and looked at the ocean. "What's wrong?" Nick asked. "Nothing, I'm just so happy right now, it's overwhelming," I said. "I can make it happier," Nick said lifting my hair up and placing a soft kiss on my neck. "I think I know how you can make it happier," I said closing my eyes. He pressed his hands on my waist and pulled me back against him. He kissed my neck and shoulder. He slid my jacket off and pulled my blouse out from my skirt and slid his hands underneath it. "Nick, let's go inside, baby," I said. He picked me up and carried me into the room and laid me on the bed. He pulled his jacket off and slid his shoes off. He went down and knelt at the end of the bed and pulled my shoes off. He climbed up on the bed and laid on top of me. We kissed deeply. He unbuttoned my shirt and slid his hand inside. He caressed my body and I arched towards him. He ripped open my blouse and pulled it off. He pulled off my skirt. I pushed his shirt off and pushed his pants off. We removed the rest of each other's clothes and made long, passionate love all night long. Afterwards, we laid there holding each other. "I love you," Nick said kissing my forehead. "I love you, too," I said. We kissed passionately and went to sleep holding each other. A week later, after days on the beach and nights of passionate lovemaking, we returned to Tampa. Brian and Amy were meeting us at the airport. We got off the plane and discovered a crowd there. Nick and I had disguises on and we slipped by without being noticed. Brian and Amy had disguises on and we all left the airport without any problems. We all went to mine and Nick's house. Brian and Nick sat in the living room while me and Amy were in the kitchen. "How was the honeymoon?" Amy asked. "Amazing, the hotel was great, the view was incredible," I said. "Which view?" Amy asked grinning. "Both, the view of the ocean from the room was incredible, we spent days on the beach," I said. "And night of passionate lovemaking," Amy said. "How did you know?" I asked. "I can see it in your eyes, Bri, you are more in love than ever," Amy said. "I love him more than anything in the world," I said. "I know how you feel, I still can't believe that I'm having a baby," Amy said. "I will be a godmother, right," I said. "Well, of course!" Amy said. "We are truly happy, aren't we," I said. "Oh yeah, we are very lucky and happy to have them," Amy said. We talked. That night, Nick and I went into our bedroom and closed the door and laid on the bed and pulled each other's clothes off and made love. We fell asleep holding each other. In the middle of the night, I woke up to the doorbell ringing. I got up and got dressed and went downstairs and opened the door and saw Brian standing there. "Brian, what is it, it's the middle of the night," I said sleepily. "Amy and I had a huge fight and I walked out," Brian said. "Come in," I said. He came in and sat down. I closed the door. "Where's Nick?" Brian asked. "He's asleep, what was the fight about?" I asked. "She got a letter from her ex-boyfriend, Mark, and he wants to meet with her, she was thinking about going and I said it was a bad idea and we got into a big fight, I told her to go to him and be with him again if that's what she wanted and I walked out, I went to the beach and walked for a little bit and then drove around for awhile and came here," Brian said. "Brian, you two have to talk this out, she loves you, I know that, she told me about a hundred times, there is no competition between you and Mark because you top Mark, she loves you more than she ever loved him, I can see that because I'm her best friend, she has always been in love with you, you two are having a baby, you are going to be a family and do you think she wants to give that up when that's what she wants, she wants to have a family and it's starting and she doesn't want to give it up for Mark, she wants to have a family with you," I said. "I guess I better get back and talk to her, huh," Brian said. "I think that will be the right thing to do," I said. "Thanks, Bri, you are a great friend," Brian said. "Yeah, can you leave, I was sleeping off jetlag, I'm tired, and I'll be grouchy tomorrow, goodnight, Brian," I said. "Night, Bri," Brian said hugging me. "Now go save your marriage," I said. "I'll talk to you and Nick later," Brian said. He left and I closed the door and locked it. I felt arms around my waist and lips on my neck. "Great advice, baby girl," Nick said. "Thanks," I said. "You have too many clothes on," Nick said turning me around. I saw that he was naked. I smiled and he pulled my clothes off and carried me upstairs and we laid on the bed and made love. We fell back asleep holding each other.
