Emery sleeps in my arms while Mr. Whiskers sleeps on top of her.
"I'll be back," Devyn kisses Leia's forehead before walking to the bathroom.
Leia turns to look at me and smiles softly.
"Hm?" I murmur.
"She loves you," Leia nods at Emery. "A lot. And she's really happy with you."
I look down at her and smile.
"I'm happy too," I whisper.
"So it's official then?" She asks.
"What's official?" I look up, confused.
"Are you going to marry her?" She tilts her head.
Fuck, the idea of marrying Emery makes me smile so wide it makes Leia laugh.
"I'd love to marry her," I kiss Emery's head.
"If you asked her, I can guarantee she'd say yes," Leia says softly.
Devyn comes back out and wraps his arms around Leia.
Emery blinks up at me sleepily.
"Did you sleep well, baby?" I smile softly.
"Yes," she stretches.
"Are you still tired?" I murmur.
"Yes," she bites her lip.
"Alright, let's go to bed then," I stand up and carry her to her bedroom.
"Take your damn cat with you," Devyn calls after us. I quickly put Emery down in her bed and walk back to the couch to get Mr. Whiskers.
I walk back to Emery's room and lay down next to her.
She cuddles closer to me and tucks her head under my shirt before popping through the hole my head is going through.
"Hi," she giggles, kissing me.
"Hey, pretty girl," I smile, wrapping my arms around her.
"I love you," she breathes.
"I love you, too, baby," I pull her closer to me. "So fucking much."
I fall asleep with Emery sleeping in my arms.
When I wake up, Emery is sitting up on the bed with her hands clinging to mine.
"What's wrong, baby?" I blink, sitting up and pulling her into my lap.
"Nothing," she whispers.
"Why do you look so sad?" I tuck a piece of her hair behind her ear.
"I'm just going to miss you, that's all. I'm sorry," she shrugs like it's nothing, but I see the tears forming in her eyes.
"Hey, pretty baby, it's okay. I know," I hold her as tight as I can. "I know, Emmy. But you don't need to apologize. You've done nothing wrong. I want you to know that. I'm going to miss you too, okay? I'm going to miss you so so so much. I've already thought about ditching Devyn at the last second so many times."
"Don't ditch Devyn," she murmurs. "You'll hurt his feelings."
"You're probably right," I kiss her forehead.
"Can we go to your house now?" She looks up at me. "I think your dad will want to see you before you leave."
"Yeah, let's go, baby," I stand up and pull her into my arms.
"Wait," she says suddenly. "What about Mr. Whiskers?"
"He can go with you," I scoop him up too.
We walk into the living room and I grab my keys.
