***6 MONTHS LATER***

Chris and I were walking out of a little wedding chapel in Vegas smiling at each other.

"Are we crazy? We're crazy right?!" I asked and he wrapped his arms around my waist, picked me up and spun me around.

"I love you Rory, nothing while change that and I wanted you as mine. I will always be there for you. You are my everything. I will always love you." Chris said.

"Chris, I was always yours, I will always love you too." I said and kissed him. Once he released me from his grip, he took my hand and we walked down the strip to the water fountain to watch the water show. I leaned on the stone wall by it and Chris stood behind me, wrapping his arms around my mid-section. I smiled.

"So, you said you will always love me, right?" I asked turning my head to look at Chris and he smiled.

"Forever and for always." Chris said.

"What about a baby? You love it always too?" I asked and Chris looked at me.

"Ro..." Chris said and I turned in his grip.

"You have about 7 months to decide..." I said with a smile and he looked at me shocked, then picked me up again and my arms went around his neck, he just hugged me.

"We're having a baby!" Chris yelled once he set me down and I laughed.

"Chris! Shhh!" I laughed and he shook his head.

"Hell no! I'm shouting it from the rooftops." Chris said. I moved my hands to cup his face.

"How about kissing me first." I said and he nodded leaning in giving me a small but passionate kiss.

***9 YEARS LATER***

I was sitting in the stands at my son's little league football game pissed off. I knew his job, I knew he was trying but he made a promise he wasn't keeping.

"Mom, it's daddy!" My 7-year-old daughter June said pointing across the field. I didn't pay any attention.

"Dad won't be in town for 3 more days. Remember?" I said and she sighed. June always hated Chris being away and always thought she saw him. I cheered for Cody making an awesome play.

"How's he playing?" A voice asked sitting beside me. I turned and saw Chris sitting there. I screamed and threw my arms around his neck hugging him as he laughed.

"You're here!" I said as we broke apart.

"I told you I saw him." June said and I smiled at her.

"I'll never doubt you again." I said and then looked at Chris.

"I felt horrible, so I had Megan reschedule something. I needed to be here." Chris said and I smiled.

"Thank you Chris." I said and he sighed.

"How would my stand in assistant feel if I took a break for a while?" Chris asked and I laughed

"Stand in assistant doesn't care, she would be over the moon." I said and Chris smiled.

"I need to worry about you and the kids now. You are my life, all I wanted, all I need." Chris said and I smiled.

"We have always been here just waiting on you." I said as he leaned in and kissed me.

"I'm tired of making you wait. This is where I need to be." Chris said and I smiled.

"This is where we want you too." I said.

"I told you I was always there for you and I haven't been. I love you Ro. You, Cody and June. You 3 are all I need." Chris said.

"You are all we need Chris." I said as he leaned in and passionately kissed me.
