Erich shakes his head firmly. His Ada chose New York.she must love the place. Who was he to take that away? " no,potato. You love it here.wherever you are,is home to me." Erich says. "I can't picture you anywhere else." Erich shrugs,moving Ada's head with the motion. He sighs and looks down at Ada." The money to Erica is just helping out a friend. That is it." Erich says quietly. He feels very guilty about it upsetting Ada,and his omitting telling her what he was doing.

Erich nods slightly,running his hand though his hair. When Ada states it the way she does,it makes it all seem so shady. "I didnt mean for it to be a secret. I really did not. It's just....meh,I don't know. " erich Says,exhausted. " I just try to make everyone happy,you know? In the end? It always bites me in the ass. I should be selfish and just worry about you and me." he shakes his head. Fighting about money...they were a real married couple now.

Erich lays back and and puts his hands behind his head. " next time I'll suggest she give hand jobs for cash." He says while closing his eyes.

erich cracks open an eyelid. that wasnt the response he expected at all. he meets her smile with a chuckle. " ada,you remind me how much i love you at the weirdest times." erich laughs and puts his shoes on. "i'd love to come with you. you know i loves my ada and manfred....and dietz." deitrich looks up lazily and rolls over. erich opens the door for his wife and dog.

ooc:i love old dogs. i could care less for them when they are young,but old ones have dean martin cool about them.

erich makes sure to grab some bags for manfred's....leavings. nothing like a handful of warm doo,fresh out the dog. erich dashes to the elevator to stop it.much to everyone's dismay. he blows a raspberry at them until ada and manny can get it. " its ok to feed him hot dogs,right?" erich asks ada while looking at the dog. a fat dog to match a fat cat,it seems right.

erich arrives minutes later.he slowly comes in the door and carefully places his keys on the little table by the door. he has been thinking the worst for weeks. the oddness and distance of ada lately,it can mean only one thing.the only thing now was to be told who was taking his place. he leans against the door frame and smiles weakly at ada. "hey there,ada." he says softly.

erich's arms instinctively go around ada. the kiss on her head was just as instinctive. the impending ax to his neck couldnt stop instinct. "i love you too." erich says with voice cracking. this would be so much easier with a drink or six in him. he holds her close,to let her know he was ready for it all to come crashing down.

erich looks into adas dark eyes as she speaks. then looks down at her stomach and back to her face.a slow,yet very large grin comes across erichs face. " no.way!" he says excitedly. he kisses her cheeks and then her lips. "how long? what are we having? do i need to start boiling hot water?" his mouth races. "i love you,ada." he says,as if its a huge secret he is spilling.

if erich didnt concentrate on maintaining a victorian strong man level of manliness,he'd be squealing with his wife too. he knew how much this meant to ada. and it meant a lot to him as well.kids with ada....it had such a good ring to it."april,huh?" erich stares off,already picturing ada with a baby. he hugs her very loosely,as he now assumes she is made of glass and will break under the slightest stress. "i love so much ada,and you." he nods towards her stomach. he lets out a huge sigh. "this has been whats been on your mind recently? and why you wouldnt drink at the awards?" he asks,finally becoming semi rational.

erich lightly places his hand on ada's stomach.he smiles and looks to ada.kissing her once more,the excitement of the situation makes him want to give her 1000 kisses."i.... can appreciate that" erich says,more than understanding. it had been hectic as of late,the middle of the fight about erica wouldnt have been the best time. " next time,please just tell me! grab me by my big head and just tell me." her laughs. "i have been thinking for sure you had found someone else.its beenn driving me crazy." erich says shaking his head. "but a baby?!" he laughs and kisses her again.
