Oliver slipped in the door carrying two steaming mugs.
I sat up and smiled.
He crawled into bed with me.
I sipped the hot tea from the mug as he did as well.
He held my hand and rubbed circles in my knuckle. "Thank you for helping my mother, I don't know what we would've done without her. "
"Oliver,you did it too. I cant take credit for it all. " he leaned on me and there was a knock at the door.
"Come in. " Oliver yelled out.
It was Samael.
He was wearing green striped footy pajamas.
He tugged on Oliver's sweater.
" Possum fruaris concubitu meo?" He had the same blank stare.
" Yes vobis." Oliver lifted him into bed.
He just stared at me, I scooted over and he layed between us.
Oliver popped in a movie. I think it was Halloween town.
After a few minutes he was sleeping.
Oliver set his mug down.
"We'll go home tomorrow, "
I nodded.
"I've missed lasagna so much."
I laughed and kissed his cheek.

I woke up and I was home. In my bed and Oliver was curled up next to me.
I immediately felt comfortable. Warm and just happy. I sat up and there was a envelope on my bedside table that had my name on it.
Opened it.
Mr. Carlile,
I again want to thank you for what you've done. Thank you for granting my wife's life another chance. We have agreed to allow you to be with our son, I'm proud to call you a son of mine. Take care of Oliver, We will be visiting for his birthday soon . If you never need anything, let me know.
With our deepest affection
~ Lucien and Sekhmet.
I closed the letter and smiled.
Oliver tossed and woke up.
I scooped him up and sat him in my lap.
I kissed him and he hugged my neck.
"Goodmorning, babe."
"Goodmorning, darling." His skin was back to normal. The beautiful granite color, but his eyes. They were still golden. His horns were still there as well.
"Tomorrow's Halloween, we should decorate today. We've gotta get candy. "
He dressed in his black joggers and a black with white striped sweater. (His favorite sweater.)

After a nice dinner in town( he Ordered three grilled cheeses. )
We grabbed tons of candy by tons I literally mean atleat 10 or Fifteen bags! I mean there are always tons of trick or treaters in Salem, so that gives it justice.
On the way home something caught my eye.
A costume shop! We stopped in and right away Oliver clung to my side.
"Don't worry babysnakes, it's all fake." I said in his hair. He loosened, but hung close.
I let him wander. I tried on an eye patch and a pirate hat until Oliver called for me.
"Coming sweetie!" I walked to him. He was holding up a prince costume.
Oh how fitting.
He giggled "can I be this?" I smiled and nodded.
"You can be whatever you want."
His eyes widened.
He smiled.
He insisted on picking the Prince one for me as well.
That night we filled up cute goodie bags with tons of candy.
He wanted to make caramel apples but fell asleep at the table, I carried him to bed. Throwing his slippers to the side. I drug him up by me and he kissed my cheek.
"Good night Princey! "
