Owen's: POV

Ethan and I have been spending time together for the past two days. We spent most of our time in the hospital with Evelyn and Amelia. Today was the day she was going home.
"My mom is coming," Amelia said after she got off the phone.
"That's great," I said. I picked Evelyn up. She was beautiful.
"Yeah, my sisters are coming too," I turned my head. Her sisters were... something else.
"You have sisters?" Ethan said looking up from the book he was looking at.
"Yes, I do," Amelia said. She didn't seem comfortable.
"Ethan, would you like to hold her?" She scooted need to me. I handed her to him, "just support her head okay?"
"Okay," he said, "she's so cute when she's sleeping." Amelia and I smiled at each other. I went over and sat closer to Amelia.
"You alright?" I asked.
"I don't know with my mom and sisters coming. I love them, but... I just have everything I've ever wanted and they're always saying my life is screwed up. I don't know what they'll think," she said, "Owen, I haven't seen them in years."
"What could they say to you now? You're a mother, a neurosurgeon, and an incredibly strong women. They will be proud," I said.
"I don't know," she was still uncertain.
"Everything will be okay," I said, "let's get ready to go home." She smiled.

Amelia's: POV

Even though my life is great, and I'm so happy, I don't feel right about having all my sisters, and my mom here. I haven't seen my sisters in years, and I hope they don't get like they normally do. My mom she was excited to meet Ethan and Evelyn.
"We're all set to leave," Owen said. We were just about to leave the hospital.
When we got to the car, I was excited to finally bring my baby home. When we got home, I was starving. Evelyn was sleeping in her car seat.
"Owen, do we have food?" I yelled.
"Not really," he yelled back.
"I'm gonna go to the grocery store with Ethan. Watch Evelyn," I said. Ethan climbed into the back seat.
"I love Evelyn," Ethan said.
"Me too," I said, "what do you like to eat?"
"I like Mac and cheese," he said. It made me giggle a little.
"Okay I can make Mac and cheese tonight," I said. It occurred to me that I should probably learn to cook.
When we got to the grocery store, we started in the fruit and vegetable section. I grabbed apples, carrots, and grapes. I also grabbed things for Evi. Ethan picked out a few things for himself.
When we got home, Owen was sitting outside on the porch with Evelyn. I took her from him to feed her while Ethan and Owen took in then groceries.

Owen's: POV

After Ethan and I brought in the groceries, I brought him in the backyard. I got out the soccer ball and kicked it to him. He kicked it past me into the goal.
"Goal!!" He yelled. I went to get the ball out of the net.
"Alright you're on!" I said.
We continued to play until it started to get dark outside. We went inside to see Amelia attempting to make mac and cheese with Evi on her arm. I took her from Amelia so she could make it easier.
We all sat down at the dinning room table. We had green beans for a side.
"So Ethan how do you feel about starting school soon?" Amelia asked. He was going to start going to a new school.
"I don't know," he said unsure.
"Hey bud it won't be as bad as you think it'll be," I said.
"Yeah I guess," he said.
"How's your back feeling after all that soccer?" Amelia asked.
"Good. It doesn't hurt much anymore," he answered.
"Good," Amelia said.
"Speaking of soccer, we should get you on the school team," I suggested.
"Yeah!" Ethan said.
After dinner, Amelia put Ethan to bed while I took a shower. We finally got into bed after Evelyn settled in.
"I'm happy," Amelia said.
"Me too," I said as I welcomed her into my arms.

Next chapter will probably be my last. It will be Amelia's sisters and mom visiting. Hope you enjoyed this chapter!
