Milkshake Thief

E p i l o g u e

13 years later

"Mummy I want a milkshake now" my  four year old son demands

"I already told you Gavin, Daddy is going to bring some when he comes back" I huffed in response picking him up and sitting him on my lap

"But daddy is taking too long" he pouts to which I respond by pinching his chubby cheeks

"He'll be here soon"

"Mummy"

"Yes Gav"

"I'm going to have a party"

"and when is this happening"

"um" he looks like he's thinking until his honey brown eyes sparkle

"Tomorrow" he exclaims happily

The click of the front door alerts my attention, soon enough Nixon strolls in and Gavin is off my lap, jumping into his arms. 

"Hey there little man, was you a good boy" Nixon speaks kissing his cheek

"yes I was" he smiles brightly

I wouldn't exactly call drawing on the walls and not tidying his toys up good but I let him get away with it for now. 

"that's my boy, I got you your milkshake" he smiles and hands the four year old his treat

"thank you daddy"

Gavin doesn't keep his attention on Nixon for too long, as his eyes are drawn to the TV. Spongebob was playing. Nixon walked over to me and sat down. He presses a kiss to my cheek.

"how's your day been darling" he asked leaning his head on my shoulder

"a little tiring" I answered truthfully

"I got you a milkshake too" he grins giving it me

"thanks babe" I say taking a sip of my milkshake

"I love you, you know" he says staring at me adoringly

"I love you too" I smile

"we haven't gotten to spend enough time with each other" he frowns slightly

"we should go on a date then" he adds

"I'm sure Judson wouldn't mind looking after Gav" I say

"I'm sure Olive will be happy to see him"

Hudson and Jordan have been going strong throughout the years, they don't live that far from us, so we regularly meet up. They adopted their little girl Olive two years ago and honestly she's the most adorable thing, with blonde curls and bright blue eyes. 

I couldn't help but think about the others, April and Lake got married a few years back, they have twins girls, Lira and Luna who are one years old. Also Daniel and Emily moved to America, we speak on Skype from time to time. They by the looks of it are still going strong as well. Their wedding was also the day I fell into labour with Gavin, which thinking about it now is hilarious. Dallas and Amanda had this on and off again relationship for a couple of years, however they seem to be in a stable relationship now although they aren't married.

"darling do you want me to start making dinner" Nixon asked pulling me out of my thoughts

"if that's alright with you" I say giving him a cheesy smile

"ok but before that" he pauses and grins, slyly he takes my milkshake

He takes a sip

"just like the day we met" he laughs his eyes sparkle

"Nixon give me my milkshake back" I demand narrowing my eyes

"na I don't think so" he replies and quickly runs for it

He knows I'm going to come after him, I with all my effort chase him down. I find him in the kitchen. 

"MILKSHAKE THIEF" I scream jumping on his back

I cling onto his back while he spins me around. I couldn't help but laugh at how silly we were being. He kept spinning faster and faster. I felt like I was going to fall off his back. 

"OK NIXON STOP" I yell feeling really dizzy

Nixon stops, and I cling onto his back. 

"hey are you alright" he asked his voice filled with concern

"I'm fine" I laugh

He puts me down, Gavin waltz in a few moments later. 

"Daddy can you spin me around" he asked putting his arms up

"of course I will" Nixon grins picking him up, Gavin giggles

Nixon began spinning around, well not to fast for Gavin's sake. Gavins and Nixon's laughter fill the kitchen, I couldn't help but smile at my family. I picked up the milkshake Nixon put down on the counter side and took a sip. I'm very glad he stole my milkshake.

Authors note

I know this took me a while to write and I know it's kinda crappy but I'm ready to close the cover of this book. I'm not going to be writing any extra chapters so this is really the end.  Anyways I hoped you enjoyed it. :)
