Ana's POV:

"I still don't understand" he says as he opens the door.

I chuckle. "It's not even hard Luke. My grandma had blonde hair and I just guess the genes just caught up" I say

He rolls his eyes as he makes way for me to go inside.

I push the double stroller that has my newborn babies in and go inside.

Out of nowhere Black comes running towards. "Back off Black! They are not toys. Don't touch them" Luke says

"Luke chill out he's just smelling them" I chuckle.

He closes the door. "But what if he just.....slaps them"

I cock my head to the side. "Seriously"

"Don't 'seriously' me"

I take up Ashley in my hand. "Come take up Ashlyn please" I say before I walk off going upstairs to the nursery.

We got a double crib so maybe they could bond better

We got a double crib so maybe they could bond better.

The walls are a pale pink with pink roses and a small couch in the corner.

It salo had a chandelier and a changing table.

I rest Ashley in her side of the crib that has her name engraved in it and soon after Luke walks in with Ashlyn

I rest Ashley in her side of the crib that has her name engraved in it and soon after Luke walks in with Ashlyn.

She was awake but wasn't really making a fuss about not seeing me.

I walk over to them with a smile. "Hey baby"

She coos before laying back on Luke's chest. I frown.

Daddy's girl.

I kiss Luke on the cheek. "I'm gonna get something to eat" I tell him. He nods.

I make my way out of the nursery and down the stairs. On the way to the kitchen I pick up my phone from the living room table.

What should I make to eat?

Maybe. Pasta? With cheese?

Yes!

Well then. Pasta and Cheese it is. I put my phone in the counter. I take a pot from the cupboard and tart filling g it with water from the faucet.

I put in the pot and reach over for my phone. I turn it on and go on Spotify and press my favorite playlist.

The first song that came on was 'Friends' by Chase Atlantic. I smile before putting down my phone and walk over to the pantry.

I open the door and walk in taking out the first pasta I see.

I start singing the lyrics to the song as I walk out of the pantry.

"So, what the hell were we?! Tell me we weren't just friends this doesn't make much sense, no" I stop and smile at myself.

I add the pasta to the hot water then add the cover on the pot.

I turn around and all of a sudden, the song stops, and my throat goes dry.

He was standing in front of me.

How the hell did he get in here?

I back into the counter trying to get as far as I can from him but he only nears closer.

"Leave me alone" I say

He ignores me and keeps on nearing closer. I make my way over to where the knives are and pull the biggest one, I could find.

"Stay away from me!" I shout

Where the fuck is Luke? I thought he would be done by now.

"Ana! Put down the knife!"

I drop the knife from my hand as I breath heavily and Luke pulls me into his embrace.

What the hell was that?

"It's okay, you're okay" he says as he hugs my body.

I don't understand. How did I not realize that it was Luke? I'm confused.

He pulls away from me. "Was it him again? Did you see him again?" He questions

I nod still not being able to say anything.

••• (7 months later)

"Okay, this is the last time" I say

"You've been saying that for the last three months Ana" He chuckles

"And I'm not gonna stop saying it until I win" I smile

We were doing diaper changing, but only we are seeing who can change the diaper the fastest.

I'm just hoping I don't get any poop today.

"Ready?" He asks and I nod.

"3, 2, 1!"

I unclasp the two wings on the side and lift Ashlyn's feet taking the diaper from under her. Luckily, I got pee so this wouldn't be hard.

I take a wipe from the baby wipes and start cleaning her up thoroughly but fast.

I think I'm going fast. I don't know.

"Done" I hear Luke beside me.

I sigh still continuing to clean up Ashlyn. He always wins. Ugh.

I take up a diaper, lift her feet and place it under her and place her feet back to lay down.

I put the front part over her private area, and I fold the sticky part to the sides of the diaper.

I sigh looking at Luke who is smiling. "Done" I say, and he burst out laughing.

I slap him on the shoulder. "Piss off" I say

He picks up Ashley. "Face its Ana, you'll never beat me" he says, and I roll my eyes.

"One day. One faithful day, I am going to beat you" I say

He nods his head. "Yeah sure" he says with a chuckle.

I pick up Ashlyn as I exit the nursery. Luke follows behind me with Ashley.

Since the incident from about 7 months ago, Luke follows me everywhere now. He even follows me when I'm going out with Gia.

We even have showers together. But we make them short cause I don't want anything happening to my babies.

It's now time for their lunch. I'm going to give them guava baby food because they seem to like it a lot.

We reach in the kitchen, and I place Ashlyn in her assigned highchair. Luke does the same with Ashley.

I see Ashlyn stretching over for Luke and his face soften. "Being a dad totally changed you" I say

He looks over at me before lifting my chin with his index. "Being in love with you changed me" he says, and I could feel my face heat up. 

It's times like this I adore this man.

"And Thank you for bringing the most beautiful, miserable babies in the world" he says making me chuckle.

"And I'd like to thank your parents for fucking so they could give me the love of my life"

I smile. "Just thank you for existing" he finishes before taking my lips in his.
