FALLEN

Chapter Hundred & Thirteen

Aurora's P.O.V

Time flew by so quickly after seeing Mary and her family off, I can't believe in just a few hours it will be the new year. Cy and I haven't really spoken about everything that happened because we agreed to wait, and things between us aren't that bad either. We spend a lot of time together now and he's been spending a lot of time with the twins as well, they're so adorable that I can't help but take pictures whenever I see the three of them bonding. Can being a father really suit someone so perfectly?

"Are you sure you don't want to see your mom and dad today? It is New Year's Eve." He asks coming into the kitchen. He better not offer to help with food preparations against, I already said no twice.

"They understand that I want to spend it with you and the kids. I should actually be asking you that question, you've regained your memory now so shouldn't you be spending today with your mom, Tilly and-"

"And Cyan." I flinch, we haven't spoken about Cyan either.

"Cy-"

"I called my mother yesterday and told her everything, she said to come by the house whenever I'm free. I haven't gone by, so she knows I'm not free. As for Tilly and Cyan well, they'll be flying in next week so we'll all meet then." Fly in? I didn't even know he left the country. He probably left after that dinner.

"Oh, okay. Will they be staying here?" Wait! Should I be asking this? Glancing up at Cy his face remains unchanged.

"I offered and Tilly jumped at the chance but Cyan said no." Of course he did. "Don't look so glum, okay." He says lifting my head up. I offer him a soft smile.

"I'm sorry, you and Cyan could have probably had a chance to build your relationship anew but I messed it up." His eyebrows furrow.

"And how did you do that?" He knows exactly what I'm talking about.

"Because I got Cyan to l-like me, have feelings for me." He chuckles then sighs.

"You must have forgotten that when you joined that special force, Cyan's main objective was to take you away from me. He probably planned to torture me then kill you in front of me but, fell for you in the process of trying to make you trust him. How did you make him fall for you? By accepting his kindness and letting him morn my death with you? How is that your fault?"

"Well- I-"

"I hate to admit it but things like this happen all the time, look at me and Lony." Ah, Lony. "I might not like what's going on but blaming only you would just be ridiculous, don't get me wrong though. I kind of hate you for this." Hate? Really? Looking at him I can tell he's not fucking around.

"But you liked someone else too."

"I didn't remember you Aurora. Do you really think, with how deeply in love I am with you, that I'd ever allow myself to even think of another woman with your memories swarming my mind?" He's right, he didn't remember but I did. Cyan and I both knew exactly what we were doing, which is what I think hurts Cy the most. "The twins are up, I'll go get em." Warming up their milk, he kisses the side of my head and leaves me in the kitchen. My heart and shoulders feel heavy. We barely tapped into all the things we want to talk about but I already feel like this, if we have a full blown conversation, will I be able to handle it?

"My babies!" I beam when Cy puts them on the kitchen island.

"I forgot they're toys, check if I buckled them in okay please."

"Okay, don't forget their blankets and socks." I yell after him. "Daddy is so forgetful." I tease. "Reagan, are you going to copy that too?" He smiles and I laugh, I guess so. "Are you guys excited about your first new years? I have a surprise for daddy so I'm a little excited too-"
