13 years later

I heard a knock on the front door. My now grown out hair fell down from my ponytail and I held the dark blue elastic in my hand. Another series of rapid knocks came from the door and I groaned a response.

"Yeah yeah, I'll be there-" I opened the door and a certain indigo haired boy, well now man, stood in front of me. I felt tears that I had forgotten all about well back up in my eyes.

"Surprise?" Scaramouche pulled out his arms to the side and I ran into his embrace. I let the tears fall down my cheeks and down on his t-shirt. His gray t-shirt.

"Why didn't you call, or text, just anything?" I sobbed on his shoulder. He gently clapped my back and hugged me tighter.

"I was in prison (Y/N). They don't exactly give phones in prison."

"I know but-"

"Mom? Who is this?" Scaramouche let go of me and I turned around to see Aaru standing in the hallway as his headphones pulled off his minty hair.

"Well, uhm, Aaru meet Scaramouche and Scaramouche meet Aaru." I smiled but wanted to disappear between the two males. Aaru was as tall as Scaramouche even though he was only 13.

"Aaru? Is he-"

"Yes. And I do not want to talk about that now. Do you want some tea? Coffee? Maybe a hot coco?" I opened the door even more and stepped to the side.

"Mom I don't even know him and you are inviting him inside?" Aaru huffed and pulled his headphones back on. His hair was short and had a few white highlights in it.

"He is something." Scaramouche mumbled to me when Aaru had left the room to go back to his own room. I nodded and smiled.

"What did you want? Coffee?" Scaramouche nodded.

"Coffee is fine."

~*~

I had called Aaru down to drink some hot coco with us so that I could explain everything to them both. Aaru knew that his biological dad was in prison for life, but he never knew what had actually happened.

"So yeah, then Scara got arrested as well, along with all the others, but then you came some months later and I couldn't bear to know that I would be a single mom, but then I remembered Scaramouche and here we are. Never thought about how to explain this."

"Well thank you for telling me now mom, but what am I supposed to call him." Aaru cocked his head to the side and let his mint hair fall down in his face.

"Scara, Scar, Scaramouche, Kuni. I don't care. As long as it is okay with you of course." I moved my eyes to Scaramouche as I spoke and he slowly nodded.

"Call me whatever you want." I smiled and suddenly it knocked on the door again.

"Right, uhm mom I invited uncle and Violet over because I was bored, but I hope that it is fine." I sighed but nodded at him to go and open the door. Aaru grinned widely. A grin that reminded me of another mint haired.

"Hey (N/N2)- Wait, are you Scaramouche?" Scaramouche smiled with closed eyes at Simon that now stood in the door.

"No, I am your brother in law." I snapped my head at Scaramouche who now smirked at me. I huffed out a breath and stood up to get some tea for the newly arrived guests.

"Brother in law huh? Well that is interesting (Y/N). Why haven't you told me yet?" I groaned from the kitchen and pulled out some tea leaves and began brewing.

"Because I thought he was still in prison until half an hour ago!" I shouted and heard small giggles and laughter from the room. Violet's sweet voice rang from the living room and I smiled.

"Hey Violet, when are you and Simon getting married?" It became dead silent and if I was there, I was sure that both her and Simon were hot red.

It was beginning to get dark outside when we said goodbye to Simon and Violet. Aaru had left for his room to play games with some of his friends and only Scaramouche and I were left in the living room.

"So what should we do now?" Scaramouche asked and leaned back in his chair. I smirked and stood up, slowly walking over to him.

"Does it matter?" I placed a sweet kiss on his lips and backed off again.

"I suppose not." I got pulled back for another kiss. This time a longer and more passionate one.

I remembered the notebook that was locked in a save in the attic. I remembered everything that we both went through. And forgot it. Locked it away along with my notebook and only thought about the moment. About our kiss.

Is this what love feels like?
