Blake POV

"You may now kiss the bride."

With that I leaned over and claimed Casey's lips with mine.

In that moment it seemed like the whole world disappeared. It was just us. Here in this moment. Together.

But of course that didn't last because the fussy cry of Paedyn came to our ears.

Casey pulled back and looked at me. "Oh the calls of our babies have come!" She smiles and then goes to take Pae from my mom.

"Welcome home" I say as I open the door to our new house.

It has four bedrooms and three bathrooms.

"Shhhhh!" Casey shushes me, "the baby is sleeping!" She says while rubbing her forming baby bump.

Seriously. Why can't I just use a condom? We're on our third kid and only been married nearly a year.

I smile sheepishly at her and she just rolls her eyes.

We take in our new house and I recall in my mind the events that lead us here. It was an adventure. A interesting, painful fun one, but an adventure none the less.

So here we are now, standing in the door way of our house. Casey holding the baby in his carrier and me holding onto Valentine's hand.
Then in our empty hands we grab each other's.

"Home..." Casey whispers.

"Yeah...home."
