Let me love you

Epilogue

My aunt and I build a great relationship ever since I moved out of my parent's place. She's really like a mother figure for me and she absolutely adores Chloe.

I haven't spoken to my parents ever since I moved out, but my aunt does let me know how they are doing and she tells them how I am because apparently, they do ask about my wellbeing. I don't know if I'll ever forgive them or if I'll ever speak to them again.

I'm happy with how things are right now. My family is right here with me, so I don't need anything else.

As for now, Chloe is currently 4 months pregnant with a baby girl and we're both super excited. I also went down on one knee last night and asked her to marry me and of course, she said yes. It makes me even happier seeing her happy.

We're planning to get married in a year or two so the babies can be a little bit older and be there with us. We're also planning on having two more kids not too far apart from each other since we want all our kids to ideally be close by age-wise.

Life has been good for us so far, ever since she came into my life really.

"Why are you awake so early? Are you feeling, okay?" I ask her, raising my head to see her beautiful face.

"Yeah, we're both fine, don't worry. I'm just excited and my brain is wired, that's why I can't sleep well, " she says, smiling at me.

I turn my attention back to her bump and lift her shirt a bit to place another kiss there watching Chloe wiggle her feet from excitement, she always does that when she's laying down.

"I love you, " I whisper to her bump, smiling wide.

"She loves you too daddy, " Chloe says, tucking at my hair.

"I love you, " I say, looking into her hazel eyes.

"I know, I love you, Ian, " she says.

Leaning up, I kiss her neck and then her forehead before a slight cry catches our attention.

"Looks like someone else also couldn't sleep. I bet it's from excitement as well, " she says as we both get up and go next door to our little boy's room.

"Hey angel, " Chloe whispers to him before carefully picking him up and cradling him to her chest.

It's moments like this that I wish I always had her camera on me to capture the moment. Thankfully though, we do have plenty of pictures of these moments.

"It's our little angel hungry, " she asks him, and his response is a hiccup.

"I'm not sure what his response means, " I say, smiling.

Coming next to her I place my arm around her waist as I caress our baby's head.

"Daddy, " he says, extending his hands towards me.

"Oh, come here, " I say, picking him up from Chloe.

"I can't believe he's a daddy's boy, " Chloe mumbles.

"Don't worry mama, he loves you just as much, " I say, kissing her forehead.

William slowly stops crying as I rock him in my arms.
