Is He A Lover or A Fighter? (Part 3) WF+GF

Adri looked at Nick and Jake, “He can hang out with the models. He’s not going to the club.” She told them both. “He’s too little. His ears are still developing and I’d rather not be the cause of my son’s deafness. He can make it through the show he can stay after the show and hang out before we go to the after party. If he is still up he can go with us to Italy.” She said. She doubted he would still be awake for that though.

“Good. Nervous but it’s manageable.” She smiled and laced her fingers with his. “How are you feeling? It’s my big day today but it will be yours in a couple days. Are you going to be okay with the time change and everything?” She asked.

Nick took Owen to a little shop. Adri was grateful he was always within eyesight. She trusted nick but this was a different country. Even with Liam she wanted to see at least Nick and know where Owen was. She raised her eyebrows when she saw nick walking back with a bag of cotton candy and Owen’s mouth was blue.

“He didn’t!” She said and looked at Jake. She wasn’t angry. He was one now. He could have sugar but she didn’t think he would have pure sugar.

“You both have blue mouthes. You gave him cotton candy?” She said and looked at Owen.

“Fairy floss.” Nick said smugly and offered some to Jake and Adri. Adri rolled her eyes and took some. “You’re wiping his mouth off.” She told Nick.
 
Jake sighed. "Okay...fine...That's fair." He told her and for Owen's sake he hoped he was awake. Otherwise he'd miss out on a fun little trip and good food."

"I'm good babe. The nerves for me will kick in probably on the flight or when we land in New York." He smiled. "You're fine. You focus on you. I know you'll be there when you get to New York. Just enjoy the next few days." He kissed her temple.

Jake laughed and shook his head. "Oh no... I believe he did." He shook his head. "I can't believe you ate that on show day!" He acted shocked. "I am not eating pure sugar days before a fight. Sorry not happening." Jake shook his head and looked at Owen. "What did Uncle Nick get you?! Huh? You're going to bouncing off the walls and guess who's babysitting!? Uncle Nick!" Jake gave Nick a look. "Seriously dude I do want him to nap today. His mom has a show and if he misses it cause he's sleeping you have her to deal with."
 
"It's cotton candy.It's my weakness." She shrugged her shoulder. She had a small bite and turned her tongue blue. That was all she wanted. She was happy. That probably was a mistake though. She couldn't get bloated off of a little bit of cotton candy, right? No, no way.

Nick shrugged off Jake's comment like it was no big deal. "He'll go to sleep." He assured them. "I'll sing him to sleep I think you both forgot I have the voice of an angel." He sang to them to prove his point.

Adri shook her head, "He better take a nap today. That is all I have to say." She gave her blue mouth baby a kiss and rubbed his head. "You might want to take him out and let him run around somewhere. I hope you ate most of that because that can ugly really fast." She warned.

"Jake and I are going to go for a walk. Would you like to join us? I will push the stroller and you can be on baby duty." She offered.
 
"I thought I was your weakness." He teased her.

Jake rolled his eyes. "Yeah and you forget I can put you to sleep too." He made a fist.

"Oh please Nick I hope you ate most of it." Jake groaned.

"Have faith guys...but I'm not saying. It will be a mystery." He shook his head. "You two go. Liam and I have this guy. Spend a few minutes alone before the craziness starts."

Jake looked at Adri. He wasn't sure how he felt about leaving Owen alone but Liam was there too and Nick wouldn't let anything happen. "Don't let him get without arms reach yeah?"

Nick gave him a nod. adri and Jake started off but he was a little nervous. "Should we just sit somewhere and watch them?"
 
"We will know when he doesn't go to sleep for his nap and you're upset because we were right." She told Nick.

She put arm around jakes was it and nodded her head. Nick took Owen to a little park and they were able to sit and watch. Liam was always there watching their backs. Keeping adults from getting to close and letting kids play with him.

Adri put her head on Jake's shoulder and rubbed his thigh, "I have to wonder how the tabloids are going to spin this." She laughed. "They are totally going to think we are polyamorous." She smiled at Jake and gave him a kiss.

"Would you be ad if I took a picture of them playing and put a heart caption under it?" She asked. "I would get so much hate from your crazy ass female fans. It's not even crazy. I would probably get attacked at the fight but they're in for a surprise if they try. I'll knock a bitch out!" She laughed.

She held up her hands, "Don't hit me hard!" She said quickly. "Come on. Follow the hands...if you can." She said and moved her hands around so he could hit them and keep his speed and reflexes up.
 
Jake sat with her after getting a cup of coffee. "My guess is that they both will just pass out from the downer off the sugar."

He laughed and rubbed her leg. "They probably will. We need to get a hot girl to add to the mix too. I want to hold up my reputation geez." He winked at Adri. "Think it's too cold out here for him? He's not used to the cold. Cold in Vegas is not this cold."

"No it's cool they are playing. Go for it. He is his Uncle Nick after all." His fingers twirled around her knee. "I know you'll knock anyone out. You just have to wait till after the show."

Jake laughed and started punching her hands gently as he chuckled. "You're a goof."
 
She laughed and nodded her head, “Who? J-Law? I would be down with that.” She smiled and gave him a kiss. “He’s bundled up and running around. He should be good. I’ll call him over in a few and feel his face. Make sure he isn’t freezing.”

She took a picture of Nick and Owen playing with each other. “It’s nice having a single friend we can trust with our kid.” She told Jake and posted the picture to Instagram with the heart emoji.

She let him punch her hands and moved her hands around so he had to move around too. Then she moved both hands out and when his hands went out she attached him with a hug. “There’s always time for a hug in UFC.” She smiled and gave him a kiss on the lips.
 
Jake shrugged. "I was thinking more line Anna Kendrick." He smiled. "I mean you picked Nick to be friends with, I feel I get to pick the chick too." He chuckled. "He would be fussy if he was cold."

"It is..." He gave her a nod. "But he totally would use him to pick up a check without hesitation."

Jake laughed and shook his head. "I'm not hugging the other guys I fight with. Sorry. It would be funny if I did it to Luke though, throw him of a bit." He hugged her tight and kissed her shoulder.

"I may have a contender for our first dance...It's actually a rock band who did this song and everyone loved it they wrote to them and begged them to do a softer version for weddings so they did." He smiled a little.
 
She laughed, “I didn’t pick Nick. Nick picked me.” She corrected. “But u already told you. He was using me to get to you. As we were filming, when we were between takes he would talk about you.” She laughed.

“If Liam lets him. He has stopped every person from getting to close. The man deserves a raise.” She smiled. “A Christmas raise. But Owen should really have his own guard for when he is out with my parents or your parents or Amy, you know? We can look into that next year.”

She smiled and nodded her head, “Yes! You have too. Just randomly give him a hug and see what he does. We can call the move the Adri. It distracts your opponent long enough for you to kick someone in the face.” She smiled.

“What’s the song?” She asked curiously.
 
"Well it's just cause I'm that damn good. I'm irresistible." He grinned and gave her a sexy pose. "Oh so you're jealous Nick picked me."

He shrugged to Owen getting his own guard. "You don't think it's too much? I think its a good idea but I feel our families should have a say on who it is if they are with them all the time. Like a bit of input."

"Alright. I will do it. The Adri." He laughed and shook his head. "He will be so surprised and confused." He laughed.

"Never Stop (Wedding Version) by Safetysuit." Jake pulled it up on his phone so she could listen.
 
“Jake I got beaten up in my apartment. Nothing is to much to make sure he’s safe. It will be someone like Liam. Someone who we know can protect him. That’s what I want. It kind of doesn’t matter what they want. If they want to watvhbowen then they have to accept our terms.”

She smiled, “And then he will tell you to never listen to me again. And he will tell me to stop trying to train you.” She laughed. One day I’m going to getting into the octagon with him when you’re supposed to go in and completely throw him off guard. Can we do that please? Sometime after the fight?! That would be so fun.” She shook his shoulders and rocked him back and forth.

She listened to the song and nodded her head, “I like it. To me it’s different. I’m sure there are a bunch of people who have this song but it’s not traditional, you know. So yes. I like it.” She smiled. “You can tell the planner that’s our song.”
 
"I understand babe. But I don't want to hire someone they aren't comfortable with. They will be with the person more than we will be." He did think it was a good idea. "I'm just saying maybe having input on the final candidates wouldn't be a bad thing. I'm not saying they pick them but give us opinions. They will be going around their houses and cars and what not too."

He laughed. "Sure. You know you're setting me up for hard work outs where he totally kicks my ass right?" He gave her a look but then gave her a kiss. "I love we both have the same sense of humor."

Jake smiled. "Really? You really like it? This is it?" He grinned and got his phone out. "What did we decide about vows? Traditional or writing our own?"
 
She thought about it and nodded her head slowly, “Okay. Our parents and Luke and Adri get to look at the resumes and we will go from there.” She agreed, although it was reluctant.

She nodded her head, “I know but it is totally worth it and you know it.” She giggled.

She nodded her head, “I like it. I really like it.” She told him. “I was hoping we would write our own vows.” She told him. “Are you up for that? I’m going to make you cry. First when I walk down the aisle. Then when I say my vows and then you have say your vows of how amazing I am you’re going to cry again.” She smiled.
 
"Okay. I can go with that. We don't have to listen to them. It's ultimately our decision and they will know that. I'm sure most of the people will be good." He shrugged. Jake was just worried about hiring someone and then they stole from their family, he'd feel responsible. But most of the candidates would have good resumes. "I think I'm just overthinking it."

Jake laughed, "Yeah I don't know. You don't have to actually do the work out. I do. I think you should have to do it with me." He gave her a nod. "I like that idea."

He chuckled and shook his head. "I don't have to say how amazing you are. Goof. You just hope I do." He stuck his tongue out at her. "I'm going to make you cry for making me cry. Jerk." Jake poked her side before kissing her softly. "Let's do our own vows."

Owen looked over and saw them. He started yelling so they could hear, "Da!! Da!!! DDDAAA." Jake laughed and looked around. "Who's that crazy kid's dad?"
 
Adri frowned, “I will try to keep up. I can agree with that since you are being a good sport. If we do it then I will match your workout. It’ll be a good session anyways. Just don’t make me move the next day.” She begged.

“You will open your mouth and I will start crying. So you don’t even have to say anything t make me cry. Being up there with you will make me cry.” She told him. “And not happy tears. I will be devastated that I will be tied down.” She joked.

“I don’t know but he might have a melt down if his dad doesn’t get to him soon. Give Nick a break. He looks tired.”
 
Jake laughed. "Couple who workout together live longer together." He kissed her. "Oh you are in charge of Owen the next day." He teased.

She was being really sweet until the last part of that. Then she was being plain rude. "Wow. Wow. You think you are sooo funny. You're an ass. I'm telling your mom." He teased and chuckled. "All I'm going to be thinking about is that I want food and cake." He laughed. "I'll be crying cause your vows are taking too long and I'm starving."

He gave her a look. "He's the one who gave our son sugar. Pure sugar. That's a work out right there. Give our one year old sugar and try to keep up." He gave Adri a kiss before standing up and walking over to Owen. "I hear someone wants his dad. What's up big guy?"
 
“Now who’s the ass?” She laughed. “You’re lucky I love you. Until death do us part biotch.” She gave him a kiss and hug. And flipped him off with her ring finger.”

She laughed and nodded her head, “But did you see his little blue mouthed face? He loved it.” She shook her head. “He will have more pure sugar when he ducks on his first candy cane.” She told him. “Sips on some hot cocoa. It won’t be too hot though. Might put some in his sippy cup. He love it.” She smiled. “What are we going to get him for Christmas?” She asked Jake. “I was thinking a little playhouse to go with that jungle gym you want to build.” She said.

She watched him go to Nick and Owen with a smile. Nick seemed relieved to have some back up. He stayed with Jake for a bit and then went over to Adri and sat with her. “I don’t know how you guys do it.” He laughed.

“We don’t give him sugar.” She smiled. “What are you getting him for Christmas?” She asked. “Please don’t go over the top.”
 
"We are both asses. That's why we get along so well." He smiled a goofy smile. He tried to bite her ring finger.

Jake chuckled, "It looked like he ate a Smurf." He smiled. "Baby just remember whatever toys we bring to Denver we have to bring home. The last group to come is bringing the gifts. I'm not hauling that boy and have him see the presents. Dad's talking about driving..." He broke to her gently. "But that sounds good. I know you want a plastic one. If we set it up in the cabin he will play with it inside."

Owen wanted his dad to chase him around so he did. Nick watched while he talked to Adri. "Well I'm not sure yet. I was thinking one of those blow up play ball pits. It comes with the balls and you can climb in and what not. I also found this Little Tykes Sports set. It has a basketball hoop and a thing to hit a ball with a bat and something with a football."
 
“I know and that will be the big pain in the ass. But it will stop our parents from bringing too many gifts. That will be nice. Right?” She asked. She nodded her head to his dad driving. “He’s taking your mother too right? My parents are flying with us. Brothers are coming separately on the same day. Luke and Amy...we will figure it out.”

She nodded her head to Nick’s gift. “Okay. I’m not going to say no but that is a big gift that we canno being home from dancer where we are spending Christmas. So Jake and I would appreciate it if that was sent to the house before Christmas and we will send you a video of him opening it up.” She told him.

“I just feel weird accepting a gift from anyone. You know? We can get him anything. I don’t want people to go out of their way to get him toys. You are family though. So o guess I have no choice but to suck it up when it comes to you.” She smiled.
 
"Yes mom and dad both are going together. Dad thinks he needs to drive to take all the presents back to Vegas. But mom also wants to go see some of her friends too." He smiled. "But in other words mom and dad are bring a shit ton of toys for our son."

He smiled and chuckled. "Yeah I figured you'd say that so I'll get him some books and clothes, boring stuff to open on Christmas."

"Everyone wants to spoil that kid with toys and things that make noise and make him happy. And yes you have no choice. Technically the ball pit blows up and can deflate so really all you'd have is the balls." He smiled and pointed to Jake and Owen walking over to them.

Jake had Owen's hand and they walked over to Adri. Owen pointed to Adri calling her 'mum mum.' He smiled bigger when he got closer. "His cheeks are pretty cold. I think we should go inside for a little bit. Let him get a snack and some juice." Owen kept saying, "Nack! Nack!"

"Nick is that how he says your name?" Jake teased.

"Ju ju!" Owen said and put his cold hands on Adri's face to get her attention.

"Mom the kid wants juice and a snack." Jake chuckled.
 
“Thank you.” She said to Nick getting him boring stuff for Christmas. “He will appreciate it.” She smiled. “I know you are spending Christmas with your family. You are welcome to come by and have dinner with us if you want. I know I’m asking for a lot. Don’t stress about it. Just know you are welcome.” She told him.

She held her arms out when Owen started running towards them. She picked him up and gave him a kiss. “My boy is chilly.” She grabbed a blanket from the stroller and draped it over his shoulders.

She raised her eyebrows when he grabbed her face, “Okay. We will get you a snack and juice.” She gave him a kiss on the forehead and stood up. “You know what comes after a snack and juice?” She asked Nick. “N-A-P time. And since you did run around the park after him I will let you off the hook for getting to sleep. Unless he refuses to go down. Then it’s all you uncle Nick.”

“Go shop. Or something.” She told him. “Before I change my mind.”
 
Nick smiled. "Yeah. My mom would be devastated if I wasn't at their house for Christmas. But thanks for the invite. I appreciate it."

"You sure?" Nick asked. "If you need me, let me know." He told Owen bye and got a fist bump.

Jake found a little coffee shop that had pastries and fruit cups with or without yogurt. Jake got Owen fruit and apple juice. He ordered himself a muffin. "Poor buddy. You warming up?" He seemed happy even if he was cold.
 
Adri went with a bottled water and she would pick at Owen’s fruit since she knew he wasn’t going to eat it all. She smile at him, “I think he was really happy to spend time Nick.” She agreed. “And then he got to play with daddy right after. It’s his best day ever.”

She had to pick some of the fruit up on a fork and put it to his mouth to get him to eat which he didn’t like at first but soon he was feeding himself. She gave him his Apple juice and let him eat and drink.

He let out a big yawn and Adri smiled at Jake, “I guess Nick don’t share too much. Someone is getting tired.”
 
"He does seem pretty happy. He was laughing and doing his squeal." He tickled his tummy and watched him eat as Jake ate his muffin, giving Owen a couple bites.

Jake watched him yawn. "We can let him lay in the stroller and walk around a bit. He can snuggle in the blankets and be warm."

He looked around. "I may try some green tea. I'm getting nervous of getting sick from flying. That happens sometimes. It messes with my sinuses." He shrugged.
 
She nodded her head, “Is there anywhere that you want to go? Any shops you want to check out? I think we should hit up that candy shop. I want to make a baggie for after the show.” She smiled.

“Take some vitamin C and some airborne. I know you have to be carful about what you put in your body. You don’t want a false positive on a drug test but you can take vitamins right?” She asked.

She picked Owen out of the stroller and put him in her Lapp he was very cuddly but she was doing a diaper check. She grabbed the diaper bag and told Jake they would be right back. She changed his diaper and then she came out with him. She held him and rocked him to get him to go to sleep.

“I don’t know how easy it will be to travel when we have another kid.” She said softly. “Or two or three. It’s nice having everyone here but imagine having four kids and doing this.” She sighed. “I foresee a lot of traveling alone and watching with you when I get home.”
