" He's charming and endearing and I'm comfortable?"

Y/N Southgate- 'The Way I Loved You'

August 18th, 2021

The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow across the sprawling football pitch at St. George's Park. Mason and Pressley were engrossed in a playful game of football, their laughter echoing through the air. Y/N watched their joyful interaction from a distance, her heart swelling with love and contentment.

As the game came to a halt, Mason jogged over to Y/N with a mischievous glint in his eyes. Without warning, he swept her off her feet, cradling her in his arms, and took off running across the field. Y/N's surprised shrieks of protest filled the air as she playfully yelled, "Mason, put me down!"

Pressley, delighted by the spectacle, giggled and chased after them, her tiny legs struggling to keep up. But after a few moments, she found herself spinning in circles, overcome with dizziness, and decided to stop and catch her breath.

Mason finally put Y/N down, their faces inches apart, their breaths mingling. Their eyes locked, and in that moment, the world seemed to fade away. Y/N's lips curved into a smile as she whispered, "You always find a way to surprise me, Mason."

But their tender moment was interrupted by Pressley's innocent voice, "Kiss!" Y/N's eyes widened in surprise, and a blush crept onto her cheeks. She glanced at Mason, uncertainty flickering in her gaze.

Mason, ever the playful one, smiled and leaned in, capturing Y/N's lips in a lingering kiss. Time stood still as their connection deepened, fueled by the love and affection that had blossomed between them.

As they broke apart, Y/N turned to see Pressley hugging Mason's legs, her eyes bright with innocence. "Hello, my new daddy," Pressley exclaimed, her words filled with pure joy.

Mason's laughter filled the air, and he scooped up Pressley, lifting her into his arms. "Hello, my little princess," he replied, his voice brimming with affection.

The trio made their way back to Mason's room, where Y/N settled into her nightly skincare routine, much to Mason's mock complaints. She meticulously applied her creams and serums, ensuring her skin felt pampered and loved.

Once her skincare routine was complete, Y/N joined Mason on the bed, sandwiched between him and Pressley. She wrapped her arms tightly around him, feeling the warmth of their embrace. In that moment, she realized how fortunate she was to have found a love that embraced not just her but also her daughter.

As the night deepened and Pressley drifted off to sleep, Y/N felt a wave of contentment wash over her. Snuggled up against Mason's chest, she listened to the rhythm of his heartbeat, finding solace in the quiet strength he exuded.

In the darkness, Mason's voice, soft and tender, reached her ears. "I love you, Y/N," he whispered. "I always will."

Y/N's heart swelled with emotion, her voice barely above a whisper. "I love you too, Mason. More than words can express."

And with those heartfelt declarations, they surrendered to sleep, wrapped in each other's arms, knowing that the love they had found would carry them through whatever challenges lay ahead, bound together by an unbreakable bond of love, trust, and the promise of a future filled with endless possibilities.
