Andrew's POV Continued While looking at her i cant help but think about how after everything Freya and I have dealt with together, you'd swear we have been with one another for years already.I'm glad we have so much that's happened though, it's brought us closer in such a short span of time showing just how strong a connection can be between two people at a fast rate.When they say you can fall in love with someone at first sight, those people met a Freya. They met a girl that captures them in the tiniest ways that others may never even notice, even after knowing someone for years.When we sat down stairs in the living room with Cody and Cory, watching 'Zombieland' of all movies, I watched Freya more than the movie.The way she laughs at scenes that would make any other girl jump, or how when she doesn't like something her nose crinkles up. She smiles in the silliest of ways after something makes her blush, not a ugly silly, but a cute way, like when a little girls gets told she's p
Freya's POV Monday morning rolled around, my alarm going off to find myself alone in bed after finally having a good night's sleep.His side was still a bit warm so he didn't get up long ago. Forcing myself out of bed I wandered into my closet grabbing a pair of jeans, they have more holes than they do fabric, but whatever. Searching through my shirts I found my oversized rolling stones shirt, pulling it off of the hanger I went back out throwing my clothes on my bed.As I got dressed I grabbed my brush, brushing through the insane knots to smooth out my hair before doing a few tiny braids to intertwine with a messy bun as I pulled it all up.I dabbed on a tiny bit of makeup, doing my eyeliner before I go brush my teeth.Once I was fully ready I grabbed my combat boots, putting them on before picking up my backpack then heading down stairs to the smell of bacon making my stomach growl."Morning, smells fantastic."He turned to face me, a smile split across his face making me smile b
Freya's POV Continued The three of us hopped into the truck to head about 45 minutes across town to meet up with Andrew's friends for them to play some basketball.I knew Andrew had kind of a rough day at school today, maybe not rough in the sense of he hated his classes or people picked on him, quite the opposite actually.Every girl in the school seemed interested in him, they basically threw there selves at him all damn day long. Any other guy would have loved it but he seemed truly annoyed, it bothered him, exhausted him honestly.I couldn't tell if it was because he actually didn't like it or if it was due to him feeling the need to constantly show them he was already taken, in turn reassuring me that he only had eyes for me.Truthfully I watched him throughout the day, his eyes never veered towards any of the other girls, he'd manage to spot me through the crowds no matter what, like tunnel vision, I was the only person that existed to him.Every single times our eyes met throu
Freya's POVA next few weeks flew by us, between school, after school activities, going back and forth to spend time with Andrew's friends, time got away from us.It's the eve of my birthday, I was having dinner with my dad, we hadn't been out just the two of us in what felt like forever. Sitting in our usual place, our usual booth, with our same order as always, almost like no time had passed at all.We spoke of things going on with school or my art, the photography competition that was this coming weekend finally, then about work has been going or how things with Jenna were progressing.All in all it was good conversations, well until he asked about how my relationship with Madi has been going, that topic threw me a bit but I recovered quickly.Once Madi was recovered enough to leave the hospital I went to see her. It was awkward, neither of us really knew how to start talking to one another again so we sat there in silence until she finally spoke."I should have told you, I just d
Andrew's POV The past week I have been planning a birthday party for Freya with all of our friends at the art studio. It the biggest place we could do where we could get everyone while being able to make a mess without anyone caring.Planning everything with Damon while he conveyed everything to everyone else.Olivia was setting up the music for the night with her brother when she asked about doing a dark wall with balloons filled with paint, which of course was a great idea to add to everything else.We have water balloons filled with colored powders to have a balloon fight so everyone will be wearing white, I even went to get her an outfit just for it.I really hope she loves everything we have set up, plus we have all her friends from here coming. Cody set up everything with the diner we always go to for dinner being picked up to bring there, Cory will be helping him with that.Addy made a giant cake made up of like three dozen cupcakes that look like giant tulips in a ton of diff
Freya's POV When I woke up Andrew was sitting up on the bed with a box in his hand, he hadn't realized I was awake yet since I was facing him but he looked lost in thought.His brows furrowed as he was mouthing something, it made me smile as I watched him. I can't wait to spend my birthday with him.Shuffling around so he would know I was waking up, his hand shot down by his side that was holding the little box as he looked over to me with a giant smile on his face."Happy Birthday my Freya."I rubbed my eyes as I sat up, I couldn't help but smile back at him while I smoothed down my wild hair."Thank you, I'm happy that I got to have you tell me first today."He kissed my head before he turned to face me, he looked almost upset but I couldn't decifer why."Andrew, what's wrong?""Why do you think something is wrong?""Your eyes."He smirked before wrapping his arms around me as he pulled me onto his lap so I was straddling him."I got you a present but I don't know if I should give
Freya's POV Continued My party was absolutely amazing. Everyone got me a little gift, Hael and Liv gave me a copy of the song, which I absolutely loved. Addy with the twins went in to get me a whole new set of high quality brushes that I had been wanting.The guys all made me different tags they created with their spray paints on metal plates for my to hang up.All in all everything was amazing, but nothing quite compared to the ring from Andrew, that along with us moving together.By the time we got home that night I was exhausted, plus completely covered in every color imaginable.When I went into the bathroom I was raking my fingers through my hair watching puffs of color fall out making me laugh as I think back to the crazy balloon fight, or the shock that Andrew went to buy me clothes just for this. I can't help but smile at how amazing everything was, how much fun I had with my friends or learning how to play with spray paints on the big wall tonight."Hey my love, I love that
Andrew's POV After Freya's birthday, having sex for the first time, which was amazing to get to be with her in such an intimate way, things have been really going fast with our lives. I got into the Community College that is only about ten minutes away from her art school, that made her happy, now it'll be us finding a place since we won't be doing dorms.I've been looking for a job online over there so I know we are taken care of when it comes to bills. I'll be going to classes part time because I want her to be able to focus fully on school.I finally got a reply from one of the places I applied to, which was actually to work at the art museum that's adjacent to her school as the curators assistant. It was the one I wanted so I'm happy they got back to me. Once I did the phone interview he was quite impressed with my knowledge of art so he's going to be giving me a three month trial run, starts in June so I will work full time with him for a couple months before classes start, th
Five Years LaterFreya's POV "Mom! Tell Stephen he has to stop drawing on my wall!"Walking into Torvi's bedroom I find Stephen with chalk all over his hands and clothes as he is drawing all over the chalk board wall we made inside Torvi's room, covering some things that she had already done.Grabbing the chalk from Stephen he starts to get upset because he wanted to keep drawing everywhere. "I want to color mommy, please!""Come on silly boy, you know you aren't supposed to go in your sister's room, let alone draw over her things. I'll get you the easel out so you can draw on there."Walking out I grabbed the kids size easel out of the closet in the hall before seeing it up in the sun room so he could paint or color, or even do a chalk drawing if he so chooses."Thanks mommy!"He set to making a mess but was all smiles while doing so. Shaking my head with a smile on my face I walked back to check on Torvi."Sorry bug, maybe I will do a wall in his room now too, he's old enough. Do y
Freya's POV After spending three nights in the hospital with my son, Torvi came up everyday with Andrew to see us, we finally are being released to head home."Hello Freya, how are we feeling this morning? Are you both ready to go home today?""Definitely, I can't wait to sleep in my own bed again, not that I don't live it here with you guys constantly help takebcare of us."The nurse laughed as she took Stephen's vitals then checked me one last time."Do you want to shower before you leave or wait till you get home?""I'd like a quick one while I'm here, you know, just my body. Then I will take a full one once I'm back home, my hair is still gross from the last one considering he kept forgetting the conditioner."We laughed together while we had some small talk before breakfast was brought in to me."When you are finished eating I'll come back to keep an eye on little man here while you wash up. We are all going to miss you both so much, plus that little Torvi coming in every day.""
Andrew's POV I woke up to feeling a wetness on the bed when my eyes shot open to see Freya trying to sit up as she was breathing heavily."My... water... it broke..."She breathed out heavily as I jumped up out of the bed, ripping my clothes off as I grabbed some new ones out of my dresser as fast as humanly possible before rushing to her side of the bed.I helped her sit up while grabbing her shoes to put on her feet while grabbing her some new underwear with a pad in it, in hopes that may help her out for the car ride.After slipping those on her as she groans while gripping her belly I managed to get some pants on her while helping her into a sports bra before throwing one of her pregnancy tops over her."How far apart are your contractions?""I'm not sure, maybe seven or eight minutes. Go check on Torvi then let Damon know we need to go to the hoSPITAL!"She started panting harder as she gripped herself again, making me rush to check on Torvi before knocking on Damon's door as I
Freya's POV Continued The last few months have been great. I started my job at the college shadowing my professor while taking my classes online for teaching.Things have been running smoothly. The holidays, along with Torvi's fifth birthday party were great. I love having our parents here as well as Torvi's friends from school.I'm due in two weeks but my doctor believes I can go at any time. I'm way bigger with this little man than I ever was with Torvi. My feet hurt all the time and so does my back. I have a constant pressure, down there, making walking for to long very uncomfortable but Andrew takes wonderful care of me and having Damon with us really helps out with Torvi during the days.My last day at the school is tomorrow before I'm on leave, which is a blessing and a curse honestly. The thought of staying on my feet makes me want to just lay in bed for hours but the thought of being stuck at home laying in bed makes me want to go for a walk.It's crazy how that works, my em
Freya's POV I was standing in the shower, the water cascading down my body, the heat seeping into my bones relieving the chill I had been feeling as the steam surrounded me while fogging up the room.I love the feel of the heat running over me, the way it relaxes my body, eases the back pain I had been experiencing making me feel a bit better as I stood there leaning my forehead on my hands that were laying upon the tiles as the water beat down on my back.Lost in the feel of everything I never even noticed the door opening until I got hit with a cold draft as my curtain opened ever so slightly as hands gripped my hips from behind me making me jump a bit from being startled as a small shriek left my lips.Those sparks rushing through my body as butterflies hit my stomach making my care pulse as heat rushed through me in a different way than what the hot water does to me.My body being pulled flush into a hard body behind me as I felt the heat from his breath brush across my neck befo
Damon's POV"La la lala, love.""Wa was wuv.""You are so close my princessa, so close, getting better every day. Do you want a snack before mommy gets back with lunch or do you want to wait?""Keep play with me, I want to color with you."She jumped up to her feet before hopping a bit with a giant smile on her face. I can't even describe how much I love this little girl or how I am lucky enough to get to be a part of her life and watch her grow. I hope that one day I will get to experience this with my own child, but finding a love like Andrew has with Freya seems to be a difficult thing to find.After everything with Cory, I just don't even have the tiniest of umph to want to start dating again. She literally hated me spending time with my family, I can't be with someone like that. We are young, I mean I'm only 22 years old, shouldn't she be happy I'd rather spend extra time with my family, one of which is someone she had grown up with their entire lives, than going out to clubs or
Freya's POV Continued Spending time with our parents was wonderful but it's nice to have our home back without the extra people I felt I needed to keep entertaining when all I wanted to do was sleep in one morning before I started my online classes.Of course I didn't get that because I have Torvi running around the house like a crazy girl while playing, dancing, singing and eating constantly today.She has been on a new level of hyper this morning when she rushed into my room before jumping on the bed at six making me groan as Andrew rolled out of bed to get ready for work. Torvi was playful all while she snuggled up next to Mr, her little hands gripping my face making sure I looked at her."Morning mommy, can I have a pop tart pwease?""Mmm of course my little bug, come on."I kissed her cheek as she smiled at me before I liftednher up to place her down onto the floor next to the bed when she took off running making me shake my head while I chuckled a bit."She has enough energy f
Freya's POV I'm about to graduate college along side my best friend and brother while my husband sits with our parents, along with our precious Torvi in the stands to watch Damon and I walk across a stage to get our degrees.After I told Andrew we were pregnant we had Damon move back home with us the same evening.This past week has been a breeze, even after he was gone for over a year, it went right back to normal without a hiccup. Torvi has been over the moon to have her story time buddy back for bedtimes, she loves her Uncle Damon like another parent.Andrew wanted to call our parents straight away but the next morning when I went to call them he stopped me that time, saying he wanted to wait to tell them in person after the graduation, I agreed with him because I didn't want to miss my dad's reaction when he finds out.I went to get some little things to surprise them with the news too, I can't wait to give it to them later this evening at our celebration dinner.Damon helped me
Andrew's POV Continued After Freya went into the bedroom, Damon and I sat out in the living room for a while longer. I could see he wanted to talk to me about what was going on but was hesitating at the same time. "You know, you can tell me anything, right?"He nodded as he laid his head back on the back of the couch while he sighed deeply."All we did was fight man, it started before we moved in, but once we lived together it was bad, she was always angry, upset with me for something or other. It was just to much, then yesterday it got really bad because..."He got quiet as he swallowed deeply before lifting his head up as he sat forward putting his face I his hands while shaking his head."Because you come over here to much?"He moved his hands, his eyes shifting upwards to look at me."You know that's an issue?""Freya noticed first, then after she said something I saw it too, guess I just didn't pay attention enough, or care really, when she didn't come. But after Frey pointed i
