Love has been Reached

Happy Ever After

-10 years later-
"Hey babygirl." Ben said as he walked in on his 9 year old daughter reading a book.
Not long after Ben and Miranda got married, Miranda found out she was pregnant with a girl and they decided on naming her Nia.
"Hey daddy, I was about to go to sleep but would you like to read another book with me." Nia asked while getting of bed to get another book.
"Sure honey but do you want to go with daddy and read it in me and mommy's room."
"Ok but let me get my blanket and another book then we can go."
Ben waited on the 9 year old to gather her belongings and then scooped her up flying her into their room.
"Mommy, mommy, I'm flying." Nia said as Ben flew her throughout their room.
"Benjamin Warren please be careful with her, we don't need anymore stitches to the forehead." Miranda said as she laid her book on the nightstand.
"Honey I've told you a million times that the drone just randomly hit my face, it malfunctioned." Ben said smiling.
"Daddy I'm kind of dizzy."
"Sorry baby, watch out mommy this airplane is about to make a crash landing." Ben said as he threw Nia on the bed.
"Is my beautiful airplane alright, that landing look like it hurt." Miranda asked kissing Nia's forehead.
"Hey how come we were never beautiful airplanes." the familiar voice asked.
They seen two silhouettes staring in the door frame.
"Booker, Aria, what are you guys doing here." Ben asked as he walked over to hug them.
"Well we have some news, Aria would you like to tell them." Booker motioned.
"You damn punk ass." Aria mumbled. "Yes actually me and Booker are finished with college and we are moving back home." Aria finished.
"That's great where are you guys gonna live." Ben asked while going to lay down in bed.
"Well we assumed here in your new home." Booker assumed.
"That's fine but under one condition, you guys have to help out with Nia." Miranda said while rubbing the 9 year olds forehead.
"Aww thank you guys." Booker and Aria both ran to hug their parents.
Although technically Miranda was Booker and Aria's step mom, they never really thought of her like that, she help become the adults that they are today.
"Hey sissy will you read this story for us." Nia asked Aria who was 23 years old.
There was definitely an age gap between Nia and the twins but Booker and Aria loved having a little sibling.
"Of course I can." Aria responded while opening the book Nia picked out.
Aria finished the story in about 10 minutes but in the mean time Nia had fell asleep in Miranda's arms.
"Thank you Aria for reading but Nia can sleep in here with us, you just go get settled into your rooms." Miranda said with a whisper.
"Ok Goodnight love you guys." Booker and Aria whispered back.
The twins left and quietly shut the door. Ben turned the lamp off and scooted closer to Miranda and Nia, wrapping them up in his arms.
"Goodnight Miranda Bailey, I love you."
"Goodnight Benjamin Warren, I love you too."
Ben kissed Miranda and Nia on the forehead and faintly went to sleep.
Miranda and Ben woke up to an awful noise of pots and pans rattling.
"Good morning sunshine and happy 10 year anniversary." Ben said as he kissed Miranda.
"Happy anniversary to you too, do you think we have to get out of bed right now."
"No I don't ever want to leave this bed because you're here in it."
"After 10 years of marriage you would think you have said all the sweet things but you find different words every day." Miranda said as she smiled and moving into Ben's arms.
"What do you think the kids are doing." Ben asked as he stroked Miranda's hair.
"They are either burning down the kitchen we just built or they are making us breakfast and hopefully serving it to us in bed.
"Well let's just pray to god we don't hear any smoke alarms go off."
They both laughed and just laid there smiling at each other, sharing kisses on occasion.
"Do you think we should have another baby."Miranda asked just putting it out there.
"If you want to then of course we'll have another baby, whatever you wanna do I'm here for the ride." Ben said while yawning.
"I just don't know because their would be like a 23 year age gap between the twins and the baby if we were to have one."
"You're pregnant aren't you." Ben asked while grabbing her hand.
"How did you know." Miranda asked while rubbing his beard.
"Let's just say it takes a good husband to know his wife and I also found the pregnancy test in the trash can."
"Why didn't you confront me about it and why aren't you mad that I didn't tell as soon I'm as I found out." Miranda asked her husband.
"Because I wanted to make sure that you got your feelings out and make sure you were okay with it and what kind of a husband would I be if I got mad at you for not telling me as soon as you took the test." Ben said as he rubbed Miranda's belly.
Ben moved down so that he was eye level with Miranda's belly.
"Hi little one, it's daddy, I'm just going to say that I really hope you're a girl but if not that's okay because as long as your healthy I don't care what you are also be nice to your mom, don't kick her because that really hurts her and it hurts me to see her in pain but other than that I love you little munchkin and ill see you in 9 months." Ben said all of this to Miranda's belly and kissed it afterwards.
"That was very sweet of you Ben but do you think you can sweet talk me some more because I find it really sexy."
"I'll do anything for my wife, oh wait let me grab something really quick."
Ben dug through his wallet to find something he had had for about 10 years.
"Do you remember these baby." Ben asked as he held the red lace thong that he said would remind him everyday of who he was with.
"You really held on to these for 10 years." Miranda asked while admiring them.
"Of course I did, if I recall they looked really sexy on you."
"Well how about we find out again." Miranda asked while taking the thong out of Ben's hand.
"Happy 10 year anniversary babe." Ben said kissing her long and passionate.
"Happy anniversary honey" Miranda replied while slipping off her pants.
