I can't believe it. Y'all have made Life as we Know It, the number one Scirstie fanfic. I've never been happier, thank you.

Scott POV
6 AM- Arlington, TX
==
The alarm blares through the house, and I can hear Kirstie get up and turn it off. She comes back, and kisses me on the cheek.

"I love you." She smiles, and walks to the bathroom to start a shower.

I get up and use the bathroom downstairs, and check on Joe. He was still fast asleep, and his eyes were shut tightly. He would be three months old in two days.

Kirstie came out, and was all ready to go. She changed, and I went into the bathroom for a quick shower, and then came back out and grabbed Joe's pacifier, and put in a plastic bag. Kirstie was picking him up, and was carrying the carrier in one hand, him in the other.

I grabbed her purse, my backpack, and the gigantic suitcase we where sharing. The diaper bag was already attached to the carrier. We both loaded up the car, and drove off to the airport.

Kirstie POV
7:30 AM

We park the car in the parking deck, and unload. Scott picks up Joe in his carrier, and I grab my purse, and the diaper bag. Scott put his backpack on, and grabbed Joe. I then got the suitcase, and Scott locked the car.

"Off to go to Cali- how wonderful so!" He chanted.

"I'm excited to see everyone." I smile, and look down at the little baby.

I check our bag, and we head up to security. I take Joe out of the carrier, and we lay our bags on the belt. It was almost empty.

We get through, and grab Starbucks, and wait at the gate.

"Why am I so excited?" I ask, and Scott looks at me.

"We are going back to where it all started love! Don't worry- I'm really excited to!"

"I'm sorta scared that Joe will cry the entire flight." I say.

"Yeah. I hate it when babies do that on planes, so hopefully we won't be those parents." Scott replies.

We talk about random things, until they call to board us.

We get on, and sit in a two-seater. We put the carrier above us, and Scott holds Joe, and feeds him a bottle while we take off.

The plane was about a quarter of the way full, and that was just fine.

They brought pretzels to us, and we both had some coffee.

About halfway through the flight, I could see Scott falling asleep, so I took Joe and let him look out the window. He didn't seem to dig it, but he was out like a light to.

Then- Joe started crying. Scott immediately woke up, and started bobbing him in the aisle. I got up, and went to change his diaper.

"Ugh J." I mutter, and toss the diaper away.

"I still love you my little monkey." I say, and snuggle him. I sit back down, and Joe plays with my hair. It doesn't hurt, because I'm so used to him pulling on it.

Soon, I begin to fall asleep. Planes always do this to me.

I feel some hands take Stuart away, and I feel whole.

I love my little family.
