A FEW YEARS LATER

"Mrs.Billie Comet." I whisper to my sleeping wife who slightly moves in her sleep. Snoring softly, she is lying with her arm over her eyes and her other arm is wrapped around my waist. "It's time to wake up." Somehow in our sleep, I rolled on top of Billie and was lying with my head buried in her neck.

The last few years with Billie has been amazing. We got married exactly five years ago today. Billie and I decided to wait for a honeymoon and took a honeymoon a year later. We ended up traveling to Singapore for about a month then came back only to find out Maggie and Patrick were getting a divorce.

They apparently been separated for a year before they decided that divorce was a better option.

My wife was devastated.

Her brother, Finneas, didn't care because he already had sensed that Maggie and Patrick were happily in love as they use to be. He helped his mom move out of the house and into a wonderful home that him and Billie bought for her.

The divorced couple ended up selling the house, their childhood home. Billie was definitely hurt about that and tried to fight her parents on that. She even offered to buy the house to which Patrick said no to but Maggie wasn't against the idea. They ended up fighting about it pretty bad but in the end Billie was sold the house. It is now one of our many homes across the country.

Patrick randomly decided to move out California about a year later and moved to the east coast, in Virginia. He still is in contact with Finneas and Billie but he is now married again to this sweet woman Alice.

I like her but Billie can't stand her so we don't go visit them that much.

"Come on beautiful." I shake her and peck her lips a few times until she groans lowly and tightens her arm around me.

"It's early." She whines making me chuckle and shake my head. Only my wife would think that one in the afternoon is early on a Thursday.

"Hi my love." I whisper to her before pressing my lips to hers once more. She smiles into the kiss but doesn't hesitate to return the gesture. "How did you sleep?" I ask her and she makes a funny noise before flipping us over so she is lying above me.

"I slept good. I had a dream about us." She tells me with a small smile playing on her lips. I run my hand through her messy bed hair and nod for her to go on. I love Billie's hair right now. She has her ends black while her roots are bright red.

So much has changed in the past five years.

Billie has grown so much, mentally, and so have I. She ended up taking a break from music after we came back from our honeymoon. She said she just wants to enjoy the two of us and I couldn't help but agree. Her fans of course understood and Billie still makes time to go on live with them.

"I dreamed we were on a beach and we were laughing as we watched our two kids, Amari and Madelyn. Amari, our son, definitely is my twin. He has my exact attitude but your sense of humor." She pauses as her smile grows. She chuckles and sits up as she speaks. "He is so beautiful Halley."

"I bet he is." I say as she straddles my lap. I rub invisible circles on her thigh and she laughs. "It's nice to think about how" I pause as her piercing ocean blue eyes stare into my hazel brown ones. "we are going to be parents once day." I finish off and she smiles, leaning down to peck my lips.

"You definitely would be the bad cop." She jokes making me laugh and roll my eyes. "I feel like we will be amazing parents."

"Will be a beautiful family." I say and sit up. She runs her hands through my hair and sighs in delight. "I can't wait to make you a mom."
