The tv is quietly playing in the background. Lily, Grace, Carson and Jamie are all sitting cross legged on the floor as Emily tells them a story, while she holds Emerson's bottle against his tiny lips. I stopped listing to Emily's story long ago when I became lost in her lips, I am closely watching as her jaw and tongue move simultaneously to pronounce certain letters and her lips bounce against each other to pronounces others. Her flawless appearance and personality have always been fascinating to me. I love to just watch her, I don't need to be listening to appreciate what she is saying however, my appreciate of her lips disintegrates as soon as she begins to talk directly to me
"Isn't that right Alison?" She brightly smiles
"Yeah, yeah" I stutter, completely unaware of what she has been talking about for the last half an hour
I play along, trying my best to answer her questions because if she found out I wasn't listening she would think I don't care and I was being rude but it's the opposite I care so much and while I may have been rude by not listening I can't help but get lost in her plump moisturised lips.
"Why don't you tell the kids what you thought?"
"What?" I choke with the fear of being caught
"Tell then what you were thinking when I ruined your surprise" she innocently laughs
"My surprise?"
"Yeah Ali. Your proposal"
"Oh yeah. I felt annoyed"
"Annoyed? Is that all you have to say?"
"Well yeah, I mean you ruined my romantic plans but you still said yes so I can't be too annoyed" I admit while trying to quickly finish the conversation so that no more questions are asked
My body fills with the relief that Emily didn't realise I wasn't listening; as Jamie asks why we spent years in "hell" as students and then decided to go back as teachers. Emily hates when I don't listen, she says it's a bad habit from high school when I blocked out everyone I loved but I just think she is still annoyed that I continuously pushed her away. I often don't listen to Emily, one minute I am invested in the conversation and the next I am staring at her eyes, her lips, her hair, her breasts, her nose or whatever I choose to appreciate that day. Besides my children, Emily is the only person I have ever truly loved and sometimes I just like to stop so that I can fully admire what I have.

I can tell Alison is miles away from our conversation, that's why I ask her questions. She comes up with pathetic answers however, her opinions seems to satisfy the kids so I let it slide this time. She is constantly daydreaming, I don't know what she thinks about but I do hope that whenever she travels to another world that she thinks about me.
"So how was dinner last night?" I ask my blushing daughter
"It was good" Jamie smiles "my mom and dad were amazing"
"I'm glad to hear. So does that mean you are officially girlfriends?" Alison smirks
"Yeah" Grace smiles, taking Jamie's small hand in hers
They are so cute that my heart melts every time I see them together. They may only be nine but both Lily and Grace are in love.
"What's your ship name?"
"I don't know. What's yours?"
"Emison" Alison blushes as she traces her necklace with the tips of her fingers
When we were in Paris, Alison bought us matching necklaces; at the end of the beautiful chain is an Eiffel Tower. Next to the Eiffel Tower on Alison's necklace is an 'E'; engraved into a love-heart and on mine I have an 'A'.
"Emerson?" Jamie asks with confusion
"Kind of but without the r, it's Emison" I repeat
"Ours is Larson" Carson grins
"That's a last name, isn't it?"
"I don't know but it's our ship name"
"You girls could have Gramie or Gracie or Jrace or Jace"
"Not Gracie, that's what Aunt Spencer calls me" Grace smiles
"Well I don't know. I'm sure you will come up with one soon"

Lily, Grace, Carson and Jamie are playing with Snow in the backyard and I am putting Emerson down for a nap as Emily walks out of our en-suit with only a towel wrapped around her hair, as she walks over to our drawers to retrieve fresh clothes.
"I know you weren't listening earlier" Em laughs
I tilt my head to give me a better view of her cute ass and don't realise that again I am not listening until Emily claps her hands at me to gain my attention.
"I know exactly how I can get your full attention" she smirks
She pushes me into a seated position at the edge of our bed before she straddles me. She quickly brushes my hair off my shoulders as she plants small kisses on my collarbone.
"I need to take Jamie and Carson home soon"
"I know" she smiles against my cold pale skin
"I was just making sure that your mind was completely on me" she continues, slowly tracing her tongue up my jaw until she reaches my mouth
She passionately slides her tongue into my mouth. I return the extremely heated kiss. The kiss is so quick and passionate that it only takes a few seconds for both of us to become breathless
"I promise you Emily DiLaurentis. My mind is only ever on you" I smile as I help her off of my lap
I take Jamie and Carson home, however, taking Carson home was a waste of time because when I arrived Hanna told me that they were all coming around -uninvited- to our house for a "family catchup" and that I was to drive the Rivers to ours

I hear Alison walk through the front door. I quickly check on Emerson one last time before running to my wife, ready to lovingly greet her at the door. As I pull open my bedroom door I find she is not alone Spencer, Hanna, Aria and their families are standing beside her
"What are you guys doing here?" I ask, pulling up the zip of my Rosewood Sharks hoodie trying hide my pineapple pyjama top
"Sweats? Really Em? I thought I taught you better than that" Hanna giggles, looking down at my sweatpants in disapproval
"I'm just out the shower. I wasn't expecting you"
"Aren't we allowed to surprise our GBFs?" Aria smiles, wrapping her arms around Zoë
"Of course you are" Alison smiles, walking over to the kitchen to pour everyone a drink
"Do you have anything stronger than wine? I have the most stressful court case next week" Spencer complains, throwing herself onto our sofa
"Unfortunately not but I'll make sure to give you the biggest glass" Alison laughs while handing out pop to the kids and Aria and Toby who are the designated drivers
"Thanks babe" Spencer laughs and I can tell exactly what she's thinking; although we joke about it all the time we have actually became wine moms and to be honest I couldn't wish for a better title
What more would a woman want than children and wine? Being a wine mom is the best job I have ever and will ever had; followed very closely by the job of being Alison's wife.
Tomorrow (18th July 2018) will have been a year since I uploaded my first chapter. I cannot explain how grateful I am that you take time out of your life to read my story. I will be posting my 100th and last chapter of 'Family' tomorrow, to celebrate the one year anniversary of my second ever fan fiction. I really really hope you enjoyed this story throughout; just as much as I enjoyed writing it. I spent weeks trying to write the perfect ending but I didn't know how to find the right words so I gave it my best attempt and I hope that you find tomorrow's chapter a good ending to this story. I don't know what I'm going to do now without this because I really have thoroughly enjoyed writing every single chapter and reading every comment and seeing every vote. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me share my hobby and love of writing with you.
Kisses -E
