Book two Home

Home is what you make it. Bullshit he has made this apartment his "home" for goddamn 4 years and it still doesn't feel like home. He just wanted to go back to his home, the one he created with his wife. He hasn't seen her in 4 years along with their babies. I mean they have face timed and texted but that's not the same as touching. He misses the feeling of her hands and the way she kissed his lips. "Maybe I should start putting chapstick on, my lips have been dry." his thoughts are everywhere while he pack to go home. Then he remembered when his daughter was born.
~
She was holding the newborn up to show him,"look at her, she has your deep brown eyes." Aphmau looked at his face on the computer. The newborn smiled at him.
"She's got your smile." He smiled.
She smiles a little, "So you like her name?"
"I love it! I give you most of the credit for it, though."They went silent for a minute.
"I miss you." she said as her eyes filled with tears.
He put his hand out, "I miss you too, just hang in there i'll be home in a few years." The newborn started to get a little fussy, "shhhhh princess, When daddy gets home." He started, "he will cuddle, kiss and read you books, please don't cry."
That statement made Aphmau smile, "Princess, huh?"
"Well, she my princess and you're my queen."
"well, you're my king."

He, now in a car to the airport, was getting distracted and fidgety every second. What if she found someone else. What if... Nope Aaron Lycan do not finish that sentence.
"Sir, " the driver sorta shouted.
"Oh sorry, I was thinking, Thank you so much, for the ride." he handed the man some money and got out of the cab. Four hour-long plane ride here he comes. He grabbed his suitcase from the trunk and started to walk into the airport. He went through security, and such, and he found his terminal. He sat in one of the chairs next to the window. He opened his phone to the camera and took a picture of the planes. He then sent them to Aphmau who responded.
Aph: Were so excited! But mostly me :)
Aaron: I'm really excited as well, I'm so excited to be home again and to hold you and play with the kids
Aph: Oh now that you mention that the kids are taking their nap
Aaron: Oh are they excited to meet/see me? He had been having different situations play through his head about the good and the bad, but hey they might hate him because he had been gone for most of their lives. Or love him?
Aph: their very excited to meet you but still not as excited as me
Aaron: Well they just called my plane so ill actually see you in 4 hours I love you
Aph: aww i'll see you in 4 hours I love you
He put his phone back into his pocket and made his way onto the plane.

He found his suitcase on the spinning thing. He placed the wheels on the ground and started to walk to where his home was.
As he made it to the escalators, he saw her. He started walking down the steps because the machine wasn't going fast enough to his liking. But once he hit the hard tile floor, he forgot all about his suitcase and ran to her. She ran to him.
"APHMAU!"
"AARON!" Their bodies met and tightened around each other. She was crying tears of happiness. "I missed you so much!"she cried.
"I missed you too." She pulled away and kissed him.
"Ew!" two little voices say as their parents kissed. Aaron pulled away from her and quickly went over to them.
He smiled a little, "DADDY!" A little boy, about 5 years old, says as he ran over and hugged his leg.
Aaron picked the little boy up. He hugged and kissed him to death, "You've grown so much, little man."
He giggled a little, "I've been eating my vegetables."
"well, it's paying off. Where's my little princess?" Aaron smirked pretending not to see her hiding.
"BOO!" the little girl jumped out of her hiding place.
"AH!" Aaron starts laughing a little. She started to walk to her dad and starts reaching up. He picked her up and kissed her forehead. "I've missed you guys." He squeezed them both once more. Aphmau then came and joined the hug.
~
When he walked into the house he was amazed on how much it changed. Little toys on the floor, pictures of Alexander and Alina everywhere, and there was a bag on the kitchen table. Aaron set his suitcase aside and sat on the couch. He looked at all the new changes. At this time Aphmau just finished putting the kids down for their afternoon nap. She walked down the stairs, then to the table and grabbed the bag. It was a red bag with white tissue paper. She walked to the couch and sat in Aaron's lap. Aaron groaned a little because it has been awhile since she sat on his lap or anyone in that fact. She handed him the bag.
"What's this for?"
"Because your finale home again." She cuddled into his chest. He placed the bag aside and placed his arms around her waist.
"I can finally hold you now." She nodded.
"Well are you going to open the gift or not?"
"Shouldn't I wait till Alexander and Alina wake up?"
"No this gift this from me. They have one for you later."
"Oh well I have a gift for you, let me get it." He moved her off his lap and got his suitcase. He opened it and grabbed a little bag then he walked back over to her and handed it to her. "Open yours first."
"Alright," she took the ribbon off the bag, then the tissue paper, which then revealed a medium, red box. She opened the box to reveal a half heart that looked like it connected to another one. That's when Aaron pulled the other half out of his shirt. "Aaron it's beautiful! But you're really going to wear that all the time?"
"I've been wearing it since February." She gasped a little then hugged Aaron. Aaron hugged her back but then he took the box from her. He took the necklace out of the box and put it on her.
"Thank you, I love it! Onto my present, open it!"
"Okay, okay I will." He grabbed the bag and throw the paper at Aphmau.
"Gah!" She screamed a little. He pulled out a glass container of cologne and a new hoodie.
"Babe, I love these thank you so much." He moved his gifts to the coffee table and then he hugged her tightly.
"Well I know it's been a good four years since you've been able to wear hoodies so yeah." He continued to hug her.
"But is it also an excuse to steal this hoodie too?" She just went in for it and kissed him to try and avoid the question. He pulled her onto his lap and placed his hands on her waist. She moved her hands to his neck. He deepened the kiss a little which made her pin him to the couch.
She pulled away, "Actually let's continue this later, because I need to get ready for dinner."
"Dinner?"
"Oh I forgot to tell you, tonight we're going to dinner."
"Oh, I thought we might just stay home so you know I can bond with the kids."
"Well you still can be dad of the year after we get food."
"Hmph." He crossed his arms. She kissed him on the forehead.
"I love you, also the kids should be up in a few minutes. I'll be getting ready, I love you." She blew a kiss to him before happily walking up the stairs.
After a few minutes Aaron felt a little body cuddle up next to him. He pulled the little body up on his lap.
"Hello daddy." Alexander said.
"Well good morning!"
"So can we play?"
"Hm... let me think." He then lifted Alex up and threw him up in the air.
"AH! DADDY! AH!" Alex giggled.
Aaron stopped and held him on his lap, "Come on, let's get you ready for dinner."
"But I am ready?"
"Well I guess you are, but daddy hasn't seen your room and daddy isn't ready."
"Oh! Come on daddy." Alex pulled Aaron by the hand up the stairs to his room. When Aaron walked into his room and he seen Celestia lying on his bed. When Celestia seen him she excitedly jumped down off the bed and ran to Aaron right away.
"Oh hello baby girl." He petted her.
After Celestial calmed down a little Aaron went on the floor to pet her. She then cuddled into his lap.
"She really likes you daddy."
"Well," he popped out his ears, which he learned while he was away.
"Wow! Does mommy know?"
"She sorta does but doesn't so don't tell I want to surprise her okay?" "Okay!" Alex happily petted Celestia with Aaron.
"She likes you too Alex."
"Yeah but, come on! I want to help you get ready."
"Alright." Aaron gets up and lets Celestia sleep on the floor.

In the bathroom Aaron was finishing Alexander's hair. Alex look in the mirror. "Your one handsome little man." Aaron complimented his son.
"Your really handsome too daddy."
"Wow, who taught you your manners?"
"Mommy!"
"And that's why we always listen to mommy."
"Okay!"
"Come on, let's go get the ladies." Aaron pick Alex up and carried him to their bedroom and sat on the bed. When Aaron just sat down that's when Aphmau walked out in a purple dress that flowed beautifully around her body, she was wearing some really cute heart earrings.
When Aphmau saw Aaron in his black suit with his red tie she just wanted to kiss him and other things but then she remembered that after the kids go to be they can do whatever they want.
~
They walk into this nice restaurant. Aaron holding Alexander hand and Aph holding Alinas. Alex looked at his dad for the 100th time today, ever since he first could see or comprehend who his father was he always looked up to him. He's so tall, and muscular but also so sweet, kind, and gentle. The waitress sat them down at a table. Alex watched what Aaron did. Aaron pulled out the chair for Aphmau and she kissed his cheek before sitting. Then he pushed the chair into the table and took a seat for himself. Alexander followed what his father did, he pulled open the chair for his little sister, then helped her into her seat, and lastly he pushed the chair toward the table. Then he found his seat.
"Thank you Big Brother!" Alina smiled.
"Your welcome!"
"Your such a gentleman. Who taught you how to do that?" Aphmau asked.
"Daddy!" He smiled.
Aphmau looked at Aaron who looked at her. He smiled at her and look back at the menu. She had never been so happy in her life. Her husband was home with her children and she didn't have to be a "single mom" anymore. Like getting hit on, even when she showed them her wedding ring, they never stopped. She grabbed Aaron's hand under the table and had a good grip on it.
They ordered their food but after that there was an awkward moment of silence.
"So, doesn't Alex start school in a week?"
"Yes he does, he's very excited aren't you baby boy?"
Alex nodded, " I am I'm going to learn how to count and read!"
"I want to go to school..." Alina mentioned.
"Awe baby girl you can stay home with mommy."
Alina looked at Aaron, "is daddy leaving again?"
"No princess, I'll be home everyday, I'll be working at home. So he can spend more time with you guys."
"Yay! Daddy can make breakfast."
Aaron tries not to laugh, "doesn't mommy make breakfast."
"Yes she does, but she's been burning it lately." Alex added.
Aphmau got a little flustered, "I have but I blame daddy for coming home, because he can cook so much better."
~
Aphmau and Aaron put the kids to bed with a nice book and we're now in their bedroom. Aaron got to spend some time with them before bed.
"Did I tell you how beautiful you look tonight?"
"Many times," she smiled. She walked to the bed and sat down next to Aaron. She then put her head on Aaron's shoulder. "Aaron, I'm so happy your home again."
"I am too." He smiled at her while petting her hair.
"Oh!" She jumped up and ran to her closet and grabbed something which made her run to the bathroom quickly.
"Uh? Aph? what's going on?"
She quietly yelled, "I have one more present for you." As she finished she walked out in lavender lingerie which covered her breasts and butt very well, but also made her curves pop like her dress but in a different way. A way that made her more sexy than cute like she could destroy the world. She came back next to Aaron except faced him and put her legs around his waist. She put her forehead on his which made him kiss her. He twisted her around and then pinned her to the bed. Their kiss got longer and deeper.
I can't go into much more detail what they did that night but I can tell you that the children were sound asleep.
