Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen The trip was going great but it was going by so fast! Yesterday we explored and did some sightseeing, had an amazing lunch and dinner, went to the concert, stayed out late getting drunk and then stayed up most of the night making love in the hotel room. Today was a bit more chilled out. We slept in and cuddled, ordered room service and now... We were at the wedding chapel, waiting to get married! I was so nervous but so excited! Sure, I was a little sad that our family and friends weren’t with us but at the same time... I liked that. It was a lot more personal. A super special moment just between me and Mike, and we had already agreed that we were gonna throw a nice, big party once we got home and treat that as a sort of wedding reception. …I just hope Peyton and my parents aren’t mad at me for them not being included… It seemed to be an ongoing rotation. One couple went in, afew minutes later, they came out and another couple went in, and so on a
Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen Ella’s Point of View We were on the road home, our weekend away was over, but it was without a doubt the best time I've ever had, obviously not counting times I spent with Jenson. We were about 2 hours from home, but we were making good time. I looked down at my hands, playing with my wedding ring. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous about sharing our news with the family. Mike noticed me messing with it and reached over to take my hand. ‘Don’t worry, I’m sure it will be fine, and like I said, we will just have a big party to celebrate’. I sighed and nodded. ‘I know, You’re right, you’re right’. I smiled, not wanting to sour the mood or the feeling of Love in the air between the two of us. ‘I can’t wait to get home and see Jenson’. I smiled again. I loved hearing Mike gush over our son, it was the cutest thing ever. ‘Me either!’. Mike focused back on the road while I started playing around with the stereo, and hooked it up to my phone to pla
Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen Ella's Point of ViewThe rest of the day crawled by but honestly, I was so annoyed now I just didn't care. Peyton had really gotten under my skin with her selfish comments. She just couldn’t be happy for me because I had something first... For once in our lives. Absolutely ridiculous. Mike poked his head around the door to look at me. I had decided to just come into the lounge and relax with a book. Jenson was on the floor in front of me, happily playing. ‘Hey, I'm gonna take Jenson to the park, do you want to come?’ I looked out the window, it was looking a little gloomy. ‘Is that a good idea? It looks like it's going to rain’. He just smiled and walked over to the baby, picking him up. ‘If it rains, we will come home, Come on, be fun’. I just shrugged. ‘I’m just not really feeling it, baby, Why don't you take him?’ He frowned but just shrugged, mumbling a ‘’fine’’ and walked out of the room. I sat there for a moment, suddenly feeling guilty. Sig

Enjoy! ___________________________________________________Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen Dinner was absolutely lovely and now we were all just sitting around, chatting about anything and everything. Jenson was sleeping in Mike’s arms, and Kacey was in Luke’s. Me and Peyton were having a glass of mine. It was really nice to just sit and relax with them. ‘So, how hungover did you get in Vegas then?’ She asked. I couldn’t help but laugh, ‘Oh, THAT hung over, huh?’ I nodded. ‘You have absolutely NO idea’. We shared another laugh, which caused Kacey to sturr. ‘Why don’t you take the kids upstairs to bed?’ Peyton suggested. ‘Oh, I’m sorry, would you like us to head home, give you some time to chill out, just yourselves?’ I suggested it, but she shook her head. ‘No, No honestly, it's fine. We have the cot still set up for Jenson, so no har
Chapter One Hundred and Seventeen -- Final Chapter! ** Jenson’s First Birthday **Michael’s Point of View Maybe throwing a big family party and having family come in from out of town wasn’t the best idea, considering we hadn’t long moved into our house, but how many times do your children turn one? Today was a special day and while it would be ALOT of hard work, it would definitely be worth it. I was in the kitchen making breakfast while Ella was up in the shower. ‘Do you want some toast?’ I asked my very happy birthday boy. He looked up at me and beamed a smile, nodding before he continued playing with his toys on the floor. Another thing I loved about this house was the large open plan kitchen, it meant we could cook food while Jenson played in his toy room, which, technically was the dining room, but it worked so, meh! I quickly made him his food and went over to put it on his tray before going back to cooking the bacon for mine and Ella’s sandwiches. As I was finishing them

Chapter OneI finished busting the tables I was working on and threw the dirty rags in the bin on the way back to the locker room. Peyton and I were meant to finish our shifts hours ago, but a few other members of staff had phoned in sick and, well, honestly, I needed the money, we both did. Andrew, our boss, offered extra hours, so we took them. We’re saving practically every penny we can so we can get our own place.We didn’t have the best home life, and I know Peyton felt some weird need to ‘’protect’’ me from it. Take me away from the shitty reality we had. In all fairness, it's not like it's our parent's fault. Our family had been through a lot over the years.Sighing to myself, I took my apron off and shoved it in my locker. It had gotten to t

Note: This chapter contains detailed sexual content. ------------------------------------------------------ Chapter One Hundred and TwelveElla’s Point of View Walking down the strip after dinner, Mike had his arm wrapped over my shoulders, and mine was around his waist. It was night, so all the lights were on and it was beautiful. ‘I miss Jenson’. I blurted out, he squeezed my shoulder;‘Yeah, I do as well, but it's nice to have some alone time, isn’t it?’ I nodded, agreeing. Yeah, it really was. ‘So, do you want more kids in the future?’ His question caught me a little off guard, it was just so..out of the blue and random, but I couldn’t hide the smile that crept onto my face thinking about it. ‘Well, I mean… Do you?’ I stole a look up at him and he was smiling too. Well, that's a positive sign. ‘I do. I wanna have a million kids with you’. I couldn’t help but laugh, and he joined in, ‘Ok, maybe not a million, but maybe another one or two wouldn’t be so bad’. ‘Can you believe
Chapter One Hundred and Eleven*** A Few Months Later ***Ella’s Point of View‘Ok, are you super, super sure about this?’ I asked for what felt like the millionth time. I felt so guilty leaving Jenson at home while me and Mike went on a weekend trip away together, but I felt worse considering she was pregnant and they already had Kacey to look after, but she just rolled her eyes. ‘Mike, come and get my sister!’. She called over my head as he and Luke continued to pack the bags into the car. ‘Yes, they are super sure, stop worrying’. He called back, clearly already knowing what I was asking. Me and Pey shared a smile. Honestly, I was really looking forward to this weekend. We were only going a few hours away. There was a concert in Vegas that both me and Mike wanted to go to, and Peyton had offered to have Jenson so we could go. Plus.. we haven’t had any time to ourselves in a while and it would be nice to just.. Reconnect a little. Don’t get me wrong, things were perfect between u
Chapter One Hundred and TenElla’s Point of View The sounds of arguing woke me up from my deep sleep. I felt like I had been hit by a truck. Grabbing my phone, and squinting at the sudden bright light, I checked the time. It wasn’t even that late, I had only been asleep for about 2 hours, but it felt way, wayyy longer. I just laid there for afew moments, before I had to get up to go to the toilet. Typical, always when you’re the most comfortable… Once I was out of the bathroom, I headed downstairs, in search of the reason for the shouting. Noone really noticed me at first, and the argument seemed to be between Joey and Damon. Mike and Luke were sitting on the sofa with the kids, and Thomas was sitting on the arm chair, scrolling through his phone. The guys seemed to be arguing at a million words per minute so I had no idea what was actually going on; ‘Hey?..’ No one answered, ‘HEY!?’ I shouted louder, getting their attention. ‘What the hell is going on?!’ I swear sometimes it was
Chapter One Hundred and Nine Ella’s Point of View **A few Days later ** I laid down on the bed, feeling completely exhausted. I was able to come home from the hospital yesterday after only a day in. I just wanted to come back home and get settled and since the birth was relatively straight forward the Doctors had absolutely no issue with that, which was good. Peyton and Luke had been around a bit, but they knew when to go home and give us space. Same with Joey and Thomas, Damon however, had completely vanished. God knows what he was up to these days, he had been acting hella weird, but no one else seemed to have noticed… or they had and just weren’t mentioning it, and I didn’t feel it was my place to say anything. I closed my eyes, just feeling like I could sleep for a million years at this point, but I heard a chuckle and looked up, seeing Mike standing there holding the baby, smiling down at me. ‘See that, your mummy is so tired, shall we let her sleep? Shall we? Yeah, co
