I make it my mission to find Roman when i rush into the house, The only thing i want to do right now is be with him, to stop fighting. He did wrong, but he apologised and after the dinner with Pastor Davis and His wife i was able to realise that Love should conquer all.

I all but run into the living room at the sound of a loud kids show blasting on the television, when i walk closer to the door frame. I see the dark living room being illuminated by the colourful show on the Television, Toys everywhere and what looks like a pillow fort lay in the corner of the room.

Cushions are scattered everywhere and the whole place is upside down. I chuckle lowly when i see Lacey with her once neat hair all around her face as she lays down on the stomach of the huge teddy, her mouth open wide and her eyes zipped shut,

Her body leans against it as she sits on the floor, looking half dead from all the fun it looks like they had. I've been gone for over 3 hours with how long the dinner was and not to mention how long the ride there and back was so im not surprised the place looks crazy.

I step further across the hall when i hear a low murmur. My feet take me to the living room, my eyes bursting open when i see the main kitchen light switched off,

A few candles light up the room along with the low orange light above the kitchen island. The small black glass table in the corner of the room has a White Vase filled with a bouquet of Purple Iris's, light indigo Lilacs and peach Toned Dahlias all in a perfect arrangement.

A white candle lights up beside it and two Plates and Utensils perfectly set up across one another.

I stop at the door frame when i see Roman muttering words under his breath as he pulls off what look like a burned stump of chicken from the stove top.

I chuckle at the complete mess made in the kitchen, the stash of seasonings and Sauces all around with two other pots of only God knows what on the stove.

My laugh comes through yet again when roman turns his back to the stove and shrieks at the smoke from the pot and before you know it romans eyes gaze at me in shock,

"Im so sorry-" i try to whisper pathetically covering up my laugh with a hand on my mouth, thankfully Lacey hasn't woken up yet from the stench of the smoke started.

"What in Gods name are you doing?" I say with a smile , my hand making its way to my hip.

"This is me... trying to grovel. Can you tell I'm not good at this?" His adorable upside down smile makes me shake my head as i walk closer to the disaster,

"Your idea of grovelling is to start a house fire with your niece inside?"

"Pity your fiancé, this is a lot harder than it looks." He pokes around the mangled chicken with his wooden spoon only making me laugh more,

"You know, you would think you'd be better at his stuff. With you living alone all of this time. What have you been eating?" My head tilted with confusion, dipping my thumb into the burnt pesto sauce he tried to make and sucking it off,
