If there are any storyline based mistakes from now on, please let me know. I haven't written this story for a while so what I've already written may not completely match up with what's to come. Thanks.

"Evelyn, it's time for bed." Called Michael.

She and I jumped up and put away her toys. This was unusual for her because she usually complained and would cry and all the rest of it but with no tears or fighting, the two of us packed up quickly and joined her dad in her room. He had lay out her pyjamas on the floor and had a towel in his hand ready for bath time. I knew that this would be happening so I followed Eve into their room, ready to catch her when she ran.

"Bath time!" Michael grinned at her.

She screamed happily and turned away. She then tried to run but I stopped her and picked her up to tickle her. This was not her misbehaving- this was a game.

The bath was already run for her with bubbles and toys in there ready. Micheal and I picked her up and basically threw her between us pretending to almost drop her in the water with all her clothes on. She was giggling away and screaming playfully. Micheal an I joined her.

After a few minutes, we helped her get undressed and got her into the bath. She instantly picked up a handful of bubbles and blew them at us.

"Thanks for that Micheal!" I laughed.

"What did I do?" He grinned.

"Taught her how to do that!"

Micheal had a cheeky smile on his face that I had come to know all too well. "Well, I... don't have an excuse. It's adorable!"

"And messy!" I said, picking up a handful of foam and wiping it in his hair before kissing his cheek and turning back to bathe Evelyn.

It took some time to get her out of the bath and in to bed but we did it. We got her into pyjamas, brushed her teeth, read her a story and tucked her in.

As soon as her door was closed, Micheal took my hand and we went into our room. We sat on the bed and hugged. We didn't get to do this stuff much seeing as Eve was always around and we couldn't really stay up all night just talking because we had a child to look after in the morning. We had gotten pretty used to it by this point but it was still difficult not to fall back into our old ways. It probably didn't help that we don't have jobs that work on 'normal people' times because we could do whatever we wanted whenever.

Micheal and I grew silent.

We were at peace.

Everything was right with the world. We were surrounded by amazing people and had a great family and plans for the future.

Well hello there everyone!

I cannot apologise enough for the amount of time that I've left between the last chapter and this one but I also cannot thank you enough for staying supportive. Thanks again.

Like I said, if I've made any mistakes, please let me know.

From now on, I will try really hard to post every other week on this story (the other weeks I will update acceptance).

Ok that's all for now.

Bye
