Matthew and Ambrose came back home just right after his lawyer arrived. Mr. Willow, Matthew's lawyer has also been his close friend for more than the past decade and a wide smile was plastered on his face when he saw the two together.

"I'm guessing this won't be needed then?" he said, waving around the annulment papers.

Matthew was about to answer but Ambrose beat him to it.

"Yeah, we won't need that anymore. Sorry for bothering you with that," Ambrose apologized.

"Are you sure?" Matthew asked in disbelief.

"We'll push through then since you're such an idiot," Ambrose said sarcastically.

"So mean," Matthew pouted.

Mr. Willow just watched the two bicker like a proud father. He didn't mind all the work since he had an inkling that they won't push through it and he got paid a hefty amount so he didn't complain.

"I'll take my leave then," Mr. Willow said.

"Wait, there's still something we need to talk about. Drake came back," Matthew said and Ambrose sensed a hint of anger in his tone.

    A few more days passed and they heard nothing from Drake or his lawyer. They have no way of contacting him so Matthew was just hoping that the man just gave up. Ambrose had another physical therapy session scheduled so Matthew is driving him back to his parent's home. Melanie was relieved to hear that the two patched up and had no problems with Ambrose staying over at Matthew's. It is his home anyway. Ambrose just has to do his therapy sessions over at his old home, not wanting to waste all the effort his parents made in rearranging the gym. Ambrose already noticed the scowl on Matthew's face. He knew it wasn't because of the situation with Drake, it was because of Jake coming over again. "Matt, are you making that face because Jake has to do his job," Ambrose asked with a slightly teasing tone. Matthew didn't answer but his eye twitched and that was all the answer AMbrose needed. He knew he had to make Matthew jealous again but for a different reason this time. He just wanted to m

    "I could post your bail tomorrow so you'll have to stay here for just one night. Luckily Ambrose's parents have cameras in their home that would help your case. If he cooperates well and doesn't pull any more stunts then this will be over sooner than you thought," Mr. Willow said."Am I a bad person for not wanting my daughter to be with her real father?" Matthew asked and Mr. Willow looked at him with pity."No, Matthew. You're not a bad person or a bad father. You've sacrificed so much more than any other father would. He abandoned his daughter. Blood doesn't matter here anymore. I'll try my best to keep your family together. Don't worry," he said, tapping Matthew on the shoulder.Mr. Willow was escorted out of the room and Matthew was sent back to the holding cell. He was left all alone with nothing but silence surrounding him. He was missing Ambrose terribly. Sleep didn't come to Matthew that night. Every time his eyes would close, he would just be hounded by thoughts of losing Am

    Ambrose and his parents got back home and found Matthew still sleeping in the living room with the children also sleeping beside him. Another presence entered the house and it was Mr. Willow. "Sorry for showing up unannounced. I was going to talk to Matthew but I didn't want to wake him up so I'm glad you're here," he said to Ambrose. "I think it's best we have Matthew here. We can wake him up, he'll be fine," Ambrose said before asking his mom to wake Matthew up.A few minutes later, a half-asleep Matthew walked into the dining room. He plopped down onto the seat, barely conscious as to what was going on."We'll stay in the living room with the kids. Just call us if you need anything," Melanie said before leaving the dining area. "Matt, you good?" Ambrose asked."Y-yeah, huh, what?" Matthew mumbled as Ambrose slowly came into his view. "Oh, you're home." he pointed out."Yas, Matt. I'm right in front of you. Now Mr. Willow is here and we're going to talk to him," Ambrose said as h

    "Mom, can you try calling Matt? He's not answering his phone," Ambrose said as his nth attempt at calling Matthew didn't work."Sure, sweetie," Melanie replied.They're returning to Matthew's house after Ambrose's therapy session. He tried to call Matthew multiple times to ask him if he was already home but all of the calls went unanswered. Ambrose could hear the ringing from his mother's phone as she tries to call Matthew. Lucas was checking him through the rearview mirror as he drove. Ambrose's face fell with disappointment and worry when Matthew did not answer Melanie's phone. Matthew's car was missing when they reached the driveway. Lucas parked the car and as soon as he did, Ambrose's phone started ringing. Ambrose saw Matthew's name on the caller's ID and answered the phone and heard an unfamiliar voice coming through the other line. "Is this Mr. Ambrose?" the voice asked."Y-yes. That's me. May I ask how you've come into possession of my husband's phone?" Ambrose asked, tryi

    A few days had passed since the incident and the police had yet to update them on anything about the case. Matthew was looking worse for wear with each day that passes. He barely eats and this time, Ambrose was the one who was using all his strength to power both of them through. The doctors had to resort to tube feeding at one point because Matthew refused to eat or even drink. Ambrose thought that after their last conversation, Matthew would at least be talking to them but after that day, no words ever came out of his mouth again no matter how many times they tried to make him talk. They even tried getting a psychiatrist and a psychologist for him but he was still unresponsive. It also made it difficult for his wound to heal properly since his body was depleted of nutrients that he needed to recover. As Ambrose was getting ready to leave for the hospital, Lucas handed him a letter from the lab where Matthew and the kids had submitted their DNA samples. Ambrose decided that it woul

    A week passed and Matthew was finally discharged from the hospital. In the week that passed, the police found out that both the nannies were involved in the kidnapping. They were sending Drake the family's schedule and were paid a hefty amount to help them go into hiding once the crime was done. Fortunately enough, the two were quickly found. They weren't exactly doing a good job of hiding. It was also the day of the first hearing. Ambrose insisted on coming with them but Matthew refused. Now Ambrose is left at home with the kids and with his mother. Melanie has never seen Ambrose this distraught before. Despite their lawyer telling them that they have a strong case against Drake, Ambrose couldn't help but fear that Drake could still walk away from all of this scathe free. The only thing giving him strength right now is how the children are doing. It seemed that they were well taken care of under Drake's "care" and they've observed no abnormalities in their behavior so far. It seeme

    "Happy Birthday to youuuuu~~~!!!" Everybody sang as the two little girls tried their best to blow out the candles in front of them. Everybody cheered as the flames were successfully extinguished by Nika and Naoki. After everything that they went through, they were finally able to celebrate Nika and Naoki's first birthday. Matthew removed both the candles before letting the kids go ham on the cake. Everyone was awed as the two devoured the cake, the icing smeared all over their little bodies. Matthew's eyes landed on Ambrose's face. Suddenly it felt like the first time that he realized that he was in love with his best friend. Everything seemed to be in slow motion. Seeing Ambrose's smile made his heart skyrocket out of his chest. "You're so beautiful," Matthew muttered under his breath."Huh, what was that?" Ambrose asked, leaning his ear toward Matthew. His attention was still focused on their twins enjoying their cake. Matthew's face flushed. He didn't realize that he said that

Ambrose asked as he pulled Matthew inside his room."Hey, just because we're in a boarding school it doesn't mean I'll stop sneaking out," Matthew shrugged."We can both get in trouble for this, you know?" Ambrose sighed."I know.""You're the older one. You should know better," Ambrose pointed out."Yeah, well, I don't know any better so let's go," Matthew said before going out through the window again."Where are we going this time?" Ambrose asked."There's a lake nearby. I saw it on our way here," Matthew replied.The two carefully climbed out of the window, holding onto the brick walls for their dear lives. Ambrose's room was on the third floor so they carefully went down one of the columns. Matthew went ahead of him, looking around for any guards before running across the yard with Ambrose following behind him. Matthew motioned for Ambrose to climb up the wired fence before following right after him.Ambrose lan

    "God, you're getting slower every year," Ambrose teased as Matthew finally was able to swim to the shore. "Fuck you," he breathed out. Ambrose chuckled and kicked sand toward Matthew who was lying down on the shore. He was too tired to even react. This is the first time in a few months that it's just the two of them and fatigue hit him like a truck just after one lap. Matthew stood up and retaliated by kicking and toward Ambrose before running back to the beach house. Ambrose only scoffed since the sand barely reached him so Matthew ran for nothing. Ambrose walked back to the beach house and found Matthew already in the shower. He carefully took off his trunks before sneaking in behind his husband and wrapping his arms around his waist. "Hi." "Hi," Matthew chuckled. Ambrose grabbed the washcloth and started washing Matthew. Matthew was enjoying it more than he liked to admit. Ambrose looked into his eyes as he dragged the washcloth around his crotch. Matthew was teasing him and
