3.13 I want to see you again


Teddy barely left the bedroom these days just mostly sat by the fire reading. It wasn't that she didn't want to go out but with all the ups and downs she felt it better to stay put. Blair occasionally got her out into the living room and tried to put a smile on her face by either talking to her stomach or listen while their daughter did her normal summer salts.




Blair had a surprise for Teddy, he had arranged pictures to be taken to capture Teddy expecting. She didn't want the pictures done but after some persuasion from Blair; Teddy agreed.



Blake was happy to be going to work as his Dad was way too happy. He had caught his Dad cooking and couldn't remember that last time his Dad had cooked a meal and was given strict instructions that he and Sam were not allowed in the main part of the house while Dawn was here.
Everyone had gone out for the evening leaving the teenagers in the house. Matt and Snowie took this opportunity to spend time together. They were told any problems to either ring or go and see Estevan. They weren't going to do anything wrong just spend time together. Matt and Snowie sat outside by a warm fire roasting marshmallows.




"They are going to burn if you hold them in too long." Snowie pointed out. Matt thinking he was being funny decided to show off to Snowie and started warming up his butt. Snowie trying to hold in the laughter just warmed her hands ignoring him.



"Well I thought it was funny." Matt replied when he didn't get the reaction he was hoping for.
Estevan had just brought Dawn to the house, "I thought we were going out? I think I maybe overdressed."
"You are not over dressed. You look wonderful."



Estevan showed her to the dining room. Dawn sat down but felt nervous. Estevan noticing her feeling uneasy asked, "What's wrong?"
"I feel odd being here now."



Sensing what Dawn was trying to say, "You mean the picture of Holly? I switched the picture off. If that was what you were worried about."



Dawn felt uncomfortable about his dead wife watching them on their first date but felt happy knowing the picture was switched off. She felt that now she could relax, "When are you going to be a granddad?"
"I think Heather's due in a few months. Are you ok dating me knowing that I will be a granddad soon?"
"It will be strange but I'm fine with it. Last night when you asked me to dinner, you mentioned relationships, what did you mean?" 


Estevan was in shock at first and then replied, "You know what a relationship is, Dawn."
"Not really, my longest relationship as you call it was a month at college. My career always came first."
"I am shocked." Estevan remarked. 
They finished up their meal in silence. In the living room Estevan made some drinks while Dawn sat watching him play barman.



It was the first time she had been with anyone who wasn't trying to get her into bed. Since she could remember the men she met smiled, bought her a drink and if she felt like it they would end up at his place having sex. 




In the morning she either regretted the night or he would make an excuse and Dawn would never see the guy again.
It did worry her that he seemed content to talk and show off but it puzzled her as to why he wouldn't even kiss her. They spent the evening talking and laughing. 




Dawn enjoyed the time they were together and as she was about to ask about the kiss, Estevan announced he was taking her home as it was late.
Dawn sat stunned in the car wondering why he wanted to take her home. Estevan walked her to her door, "Would you like to come in?"
"I have a meeting in the morning so I have to go. Would you like to go out again?"



Dawn wanted to say yes but hesitated in her answer, Estevan knew why she wouldn't answer. He took her in his arms and kissed her. Locked together in a kiss, Dawn's mind raced with different thoughts, 'Don't stop kissing me, stay tonight and I have to see you again.'
As their lips parted Dawn asked, "Is tomorrow night ok?"
"I can't, I am away for a few days on business but will Friday be ok?"



"Friday is too long."
"I will call you while I'm away."
When she agreed to see him on Friday, Estevan kissed her again and left.

  1. Poor Teddy is glumpy :( Blair is a different guy since she came into his life.

    Is Estevan as anxious as Dawn, I wonder? He seems so nonchalant. Sort of bugs me that he's playing her, the only saving grace is that he really does like her. I guess though, he would fall into the one-nighter mistake bucket otherwise.

    1. Zhippidy,

      Teddy hates being pregnant, poor thing. Blair is different because of her.

      Estevan I think is old fashioned in the way he dates and he wants this relationship to last.

      Thanks for reading:)

  3. Hmm, am intrigued by this. I will have to read previous chapters to get an idea on the story. I am happy to see Dawn and Estevan having a regular date instead of her old routine of drinks and sex.

    1. Poisonivy,

      Estevan is old fashioned in the dating game and felt kissing at the end of the date was the right thing to do.

      The wait is only a week.

      Thanks for reading:)

  5. Wow, it's really hard for Dawn to slow down, isn't it? I feel bad for her that all men have wanted was to get her into bed, but then again I'm reminded that she, in a way, chose that by letting it happen or making her career come first (pushing them away).

  6. Aw @ Teddy and Blair, I agree with Fae,he's changed a lot since that first chapter. She must really be his happy ending. I'm looking forward to the shoot, I can't wait to see her pics. Dawn's putty in Estevan's hands, it looks like he has her right where he wants her. Loved it!

    1. Val,

      Blair has changed since the first chapter and Teddy does bring out his good side. Happy ending I think so...

      Dawn is at Estevan mercy at the moment but I hope that will change soon.

      Thanks for reading:)

  7. Awesome chapter, I'm glad to see Dawn and Estevan spending time together. I wonder if Estevan will ever slow down with working. He's working to much instead of time to himself.

      Estevan and Dawn spending time together is what they need to do. Will Estevan slow his work pace down who knows.

      Thanks for reading:)

  8. Finally caught up, yay~ Heather and Teddy is expecting, I'm so happy for the both of them, especially Heather. Estevan gonna be a 'poppy'=). He has Dawn perplexed it seems. I'm not sure what she thought about when she agreed to go out with him but I'm sure she wasn't expecting the gentleman he's turned out to be. Looking forward to seeing where this will go for them...edenz~

    1. Edenz,

      Nice to see you back :) Estevan can't wait to see his grandchild.

      Estevan and Dawn are quite a pair, very firey but with her he is a gentleman so it will be interesting to see how it goes.

      Thanks for reading :)

  9. ~ I think Dawn has tamed the beast,as Estevan is showing some humanity,& it is all because of her that he is changing,or maybe this side was always there but because of business he had no need to show it!(this side of him would be bad for his business!)
    ~ He had these feelings locked away,but dawn has awakened them!
    ~ Loved it!(",)

    1. Karima,

      Glad you liked the date. You maybe right but only time will tell. I think this side was always there but in his line of work this side would be a no, no.

      Thanks for reading :)

  10. Blair is just so good with Teddie! I can't wait to see him as a Dad.

    Dawn isn't used to being treated with so much respect. Estevan is showing her how it really feels to be appreciated and in a real relationship.
