It's Friday and Christian has been here since Tuesday. He's been staying at a hotel near by but would come over everyday to see us. The twins don't really remember him but they like hanging out with him.

Today is Wrens first birthday but his party is tomorrow. Christian said we could stay at Grey Manor while we're in Seattle. His parents already said yes. He just didn't tell them about Teddy yet.

When he came down on Tuesday with Elliot they used Elliots car so I've been driving him to and from the hotel.

All of our bags are packed and in the car along with a playpen, the stroller, Wrens gift and the diaper bag.

When Teddy finished his lunch Christian cleaned him up while I put the high chair in the car.

I walked back inside and went over to them.

"Okay I think I have everything packed and ready to go. If I'm missing something I'll buy it. Ready to go?" I asked.

"Yeah. We're ready."

Christian put Teddy in the car then held his hand out to me.

"Keys." He said.

I smiled and handed them to him. He opened my door and I got in. I wonder what Grace and everyone else will think.

"Can I ask you a question?" I asked as Christian started driving.

"Sure." He said paying close attention to the road.

"Have you ever thought about us? About what it would've been like if we never broke up?"

"Yes. I have."

"And?"

"And if we didn't break up we'd both still be happy like before." He said and I nodded. I agree.

I turned some music on for Teddy then looked out the window.

— 3o minutes later —

Christian just parked at a Wendys in Olympia. Teddy is crying and won't stop. I got out then got Teddy out.

I brought him inside with Christian following. I changed his diaper then ordered him food.

"Do you want anything Christian?"  I asked.

"No. I'm alright."

I nodded and ordered myself a spicy chicken sandwich. After paying I looked up at Christian.

"Thank you for asking your parents about us staying.  I know they don't know everything but thank you."

"You don't have to thank me. They'd love to see you again. You can stay anytime."

I smiled and picked up the food.

I got in the backseat beside Teddy and fed him as Christian drove. He would have me dip his chicken nugget in the sauce a few times before he'd actually eat it. He would just suck it off.

"I think Mia is most excited to see again." He said and I smiled.

"I'm excited to see her too. I missed her."

— 1 hour later —

We drove through Seattle to Bellevue. When we pulled up to Grey Manor I couldn't get out of the car.

"Ana are you alright?" He asked.

"Yeah. I just need a minute."

After about five minutes of staring at the house I finally got out of the car. There were no other cars in the drive way except one. I'm guessing it's Christians since it's a sleek black Audi R8. A car I know Christian always wanted.

We left everything in the car then went inside. Christian put Teddy down by the door and he just looked around before running off. I can't believe I'm here with my son. Our son.
