Calum. 

*three years later* 

"And here's your pencil case with your colored pencils, so you can color in class," I told Stefan, who was looking through his backpack with me. 

"I get to color in school daddy?" Stefan asked, looking up at me. 

"Of course Stef," I said, smiling down at him.

"I school too?" Alissa asked, who was sitting on the floor next to Stefan, who was standing over his backpack. 

I smiled and shook my head. 

"Not yet Lissa. Only Stef gets to go to school." 

Alissa then looked down at the ground and at Stefan's backpack. 

"Share." 

Stefan nodded and started to point out all the stuff in his backpack. I softly smiled, watching my two children bond with each other. 

Three years had passed, and things couldn't have been better. 

Stefan was five and headed on his first day of school. Now that he was older, it was easier to see that he had inherited my looks. He had my wide brown eyes, my button nose, and my lips. He even had my chubby cheeks. His hair was soft and easy to style, like mine and Luke's. His hair was even a bit curly, like mine. He wasn't as tan as me. His skin was a lighter tan compared to me, showing that he had some of Luke's genes in him. He was also small and slim, like I was. 

Alissa was three and had only started talking and interacting with the world. Now that she was growing, it was easy to tell that she inherited Luke's looks. She had Luke's blue eyes, his slim nose, and small lips. She had blonde hair, like Luke, that was lightly curled, like mine. Her skin tone was the same as Stefan, but a bit lighter, to show that she had mine and Luke's genes in her.

Stefan and Alissa got along together well. Luke and I were lucky, seeing the two share everything they had with each other. We only hoped that it lasted in the long run as well.

Luke and I were paying for the apartment now. Luke finished school and was now a music teacher at a music shop. That job payed enough to cover expenses. I was still finishing school, so I stayed home and watched Alissa while Luke went to work. I was hoping to become a music teacher, like Luke. 

Today was now Stefan's first day of school. Luke didn't have to work until later so we were both going to drive him to school while bringing Alissa with us. 

Lillie and Michael got married a year after Michael proposed. As guessed, they went on a honeymoon after. Ashton and Blake were asked to watch over Duke and Delilah at the time, because Lillie believed that they needed to learn to take care of a baby, since Ashton was pregnant at that time. Surprisingly, they didn't do too bad, which surprised all of us. 

Now, they were busy taking care of Duke and Delilah. They had turned three a couple of months ago, which started their messy and naughty phase. Michael had always wanted to dye Duke's hair, but Lillie wouldn't let him. She threatened to cancel his credit cards so he wouldn't be able to buy anymore hair dye. 

They both had jobs, Lillie being an interior designer and Michael the owner of a small music shop, so they were able to provide for themselves and their children. Nonetheless, Lillie and Michael loved the family they had now.
