Chapter #24
Louri POV
While Scarlett went back to set for filming, I found myself sitting on the couch of her trailer looking around at different things. It’s been a while since I’ve been in this trailer. While Devon is on his tablet I decide to get up and make a quick snack for the both of us. I walk over to the fridge in the kitchen area of the trailer and open it looking to see what Scarlett had in there. Luckily I see some ham and cheese and decide to make little ham and cheese roll ups. I grab a plate and start to layer a slice of cheese on top of a slice of ham and rolling it up. As I do so, I notice that one of the lights in the ceiling of the trailer has gone out. Huh, guess I should replace that. I know that they have maintenance who can come and fix things but since im already here I might as well just change the bulb out myself. I grabbed the plate of the ham and cheese roll ups and grab a juice box from the fridge and place it in front of Devon, “hey buddy I made you a little snack. Ham and cheese roll ups” I tell him as I put the straw into the juice box for him. “Thanks Mama” he says as he starts to eat one of the roll ups. I smile down at him and turn around to look for a replacement light bulb. “Mama what you doing?” Devon asks. “ I’m looking for a new light bulb so I can replace the old one that went out in the ceiling” I say to him as I look in one of the drawers finding some new bulbs. “Oh are you going to fix it like Bob the builder?” He asks and I laugh. “Yeah something like that buddy”. I grab a small step stool and reach up to unscrew the old light bulb.

Scarlett POV
We had just finished filming for the day. I decided to hurry back to the trailer so I can see Louri and Devon. As I open the trailer door I see Louri standing on a step stool replacing one of the light bulbs in the ceiling. Biting my lip seeing her do these simple tasks make me feel something in my lower stomach. “You should do this more often, I’m liking the view from here” I say to Louri. She turns her head to me and laughs as she’s screwing in the new light bulb and stepping down from the step stool. “Oh do you like it when I fix things for you Mam?” She asks in a low voice wrapping her arms around me. “Yes I do” I reply giving her a small kiss on the lips since Devon is sitting at the table. “I’ll have to keep that in mind then” she says smirking. “I finished with filming we should grab the twins from the babysitter and head home”. I tell her as she nods looking over at Devon. “Devon let’s pack up your tablet, we are going to go get your sisters and head home” Louri says to him. Devon nods and puts his tablet into the case and hands it over to Louri and walking over to me hugging my legs. “Mommy can you carry me please?” He asks looking up at me. I bend down and pick him up and walk out of the trailer with Louri right behind me. We get into her truck and head to get the twins. Once we get to the babysitter’s Louri tells me she will get the twins she quickly parks the truck and heads inside and a few seconds later she emerges with the twins in their car seats. It’s so amazing to see her so hands on with the kids. It brings me so much joy and I’m so in love with my partner. We have been through so much and I’m so happy that I get to call her my wife. She gets the twins car seats into the truck and gets into the drivers seat holding my hand and starting to head home.

Louri POV
Once we arrive at home, Scarlett takes Devon inside as I carry the twins inside and place them into their bouncers in the living room and take a seat on the couch. “Should we order dinner and watch a movie?” I ask Scarlett. “Yeah I think that’s a great idea” she replies sitting next to me with Devon on her lap. “Devon, do you want to pick the movie we watch?” I ask, looking at him thinking for a moment. “We bought a zoo!” He exclaims as I laugh a little looking over at Scarlett who doesn’t seem so amused but nods her head. “It’s really a great comfort movie” I say, handing her the remote as I go on my phone to order us pizza. Once I finished ordering I put my phone on the coffee table and relax back onto the couch and look over to Louisa and Maya happily content in their bouncers playing with their teething toys. I love days like this where we can relax together as a family. Devon gets excited seeing the animals on the screen. “Mommy, did you really get to work with all these animals?” He asks looking up at Scarlett. “Yes I did and it was a lot of fun” she replies booping his nose smiling at him. We continue to watch the movie. The doorbell rings and I quickly get up and grab the pizza and tip the driver and head back into the living room placing the pizza on the table and going into the kitchen quickly to grab waters and a juice box for Devon. As I carry the drinks back into the living room I hear Maya crying so I place the drinks down and quickly pick her up, swaying her back and forth in my arms and quietly whispering into her ear to try and calm her down as she slowly leans her head onto my chest while I rub her back. I decide to sit down on the couch holding her and Scarlett looks over smiling at me mouthing I love you to me to which I smile and say the same. We continue to watch the movie and eat the pizza. Once the movie is over Scarlett gives Devon his bath as I carry the twins into their room changing their diapers and putting on the night onesies and placing them into the cribs. They quickly fall asleep as I turn on their mobiles and walk out of the room quietly heading into our bedroom. Scarlett walks in shortly after. “Are the girls out?” she asks as I nod my head. She comes over and wraps her arms around my neck and gives me a kiss. “ I love you, thank you for being an amazing mom and wife” she says looking up at me. “No need to thank me, I love you and the kids so much, more than life itself” I say as we kiss one more time and head to bed. We say our good nights and drift off into sleep.
