There's Always Tomorrow

Chapter 39

                                                                                 (Orion's POV) 

   Heather and I have been married now for seven years. To say it's been a whirlwind is an understatement. Over the past seven years, my music career has taken off. I've released three full records, I have done two headlining tours in UK/Europe, and the U.S. I also opened for Pale Waves on a smaller tour. Heather's band has also done quite a bit since we got married as well. 

  After our first two years of marriage, we got a kitty. It took a lot of me begging but we did. Five years ago we decided to adopt twins. They were two when we adopted them. They're seven years old soon. I am also opening my own record label with Heather. "Seven years of marriage already." Heather states. 

   "I can't believe it's already been that long." I say. 

    "It feels like it was just yesterday when we got married." She states. 

   "It does feel like that. Now we have a cat and twins. Plus fantastic music careers." I say. 

  "Yes we do. Where are those two troublemakers?" She asks. 

  "Probably still in bed. Should we go wake them?" I suggest. 

    "We should. It is already after 10:30AM." She gets off the sofa. 

   I follow after her. We walk upstairs to their bedrooms. We knock on our son's, Louis, room. "Louis! It's time to get up." I state. We hear a groan of protest before hearing him move around. "I'm up." Louis tells us. 

   We knock on our daughter's, Melanie's, door. "Darling it's time to get up." Heather says. We hear another groan. Our kids are now up. 

   We go into our room to get ready for a brunch we're having with our mates. It's a celeboratory brunch for our anniversary. It's something that our mates and us have been doing for the past two years. It is a celebration for our anniversary and for Indigo's and Ciara's as well. We still do our own celebration together but still. 

   "Kids you should be getting ready." I state in the hallway. 

   "I am Mummy!" Louis calls back from his room. 

   "I need help finding an outfit." Melanie calls. 

   Heather smiles. "I'll help her if you help him." She states. 

     I smile. "Sure will." We go into the separate rooms. "Need help Louis?" 

   Louis nods. "Some with the ty." He says. 

    I help him tie his ty. "Well there you go." I state.
