My heart was full as I laid next to a sleeping Alec and Sapphire.

The beautiful six month old baby had quickly gotten me wrapped around her finger, there was no denying that. Her beautiful, bright blue eyes captivated me with every smile she sent my way.

I looked to the exhausted body lying next to her. This boy, no, this man, has gone through this journey completely alone. Isn't that tragic? that what should be some of the most important moments of his life, he's had to hide? I hate it for him, I truly do.

But now he doesn't have to hide. I'm here now, I'm here and I don't plan on going anywhere. The boy I've loved with all of my heart my entire life has always loved me back, and there isn't anything stopping us being together.

My mind drifts back to my beautiful Sapphire. How could her mother give her up like that? There is no possible way I could ever leave her side now that I've met her. She's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen and I can't wait to watch her grow up.

Alec stirring lightly interrupts my thoughts. I look over into his stunning blue eyes, the same ones that Sapphire has.

I smile at him, and he gives me a breathtaking smile back as he grabs my hand and intertwines it with his own. "There hasn't been a day I haven't dreamt of this." He admits, a lopsided grin on his face.

"It's not a dream anymore," I remind him, gently squeezing his hand. "I'm yours, Alec."

Alec smiles again, but this one's different. This one has all of the joy and love he has inside him in it. "I've never been a happier man. Except for maybe when I got Sapphire. But you're definitely a close second," he teased, and I just stuck my tongue out at him.

"You're a nerd," I laugh.

"But I'm your nerd." He says, making me cringe.

"That's so corny."

"Yeah," he answers. "It is. But you'll have to get used to it, you're mine now."

My heart swells. Yes, I'm his now.

The next day, I wake up alone in Alec's bed.

Furrowing my eyebrows, I stretch and quickly leave the bed to go find Alec and the rest of their family.

As I walk into the living room, my heart stops at the sight in front of me. Alec is holding Sapphire close to his chest as he rocks her and whispers to her. My eyes fill with tears as I think about my soon to be niece or nephew. Hudson's such an idiot. How could he have done that to me?

Shaking those thoughts away, I walk behind Alec and wrap my arms around his waist. With him being 6'5" and me being 5'1", this was a very difficult task. But I soldiered on and happily snuggled up against my giant.

"Sapph wants to see you," Alec mumbles.

Immediately, I let go of Alec and rush in front of him so I can grab my sweet angel.

Alec's face falls. "I knew you'd leave me!"

I roll my eyes. "I didn't leave you, dummy. I just happen to want your daughter."

Alec's eyebrows furrow, and a look I can't really put my finger on comes across his face. I raise an eyebrow and he just shakes his head, opting not to talk about it.

I just shrug, and take Sapphire from Alec's arms. My sweet baby girl immediately smiles at me, her gums shining.

"Hi sweet baby. It's your auntie Eva here!" I coo at her, kissing her little nose.

"Auntie?" Alec questions.

I look up at him. Right. If Sapph grows up calling me auntie even though Alec and I are together, that might cause issues.

"Well, what else am I supposed to be?" I ask Alec.

"Mommy." He says quickly and definitely.

My head snaps up to look at him. "Mommy?" I repeat.

Alec shakes his head. "you're right. I shouldn't throw this on you, it's not your responsibility. You're young and free to do whatever you want. I'm sorry."

My heart sinks for Alec. "I'm not her mom though, Alec."

"She doesn't have one." He says through clenched teeth. "And unless it's you, she doesn't need one."

"Alec, I'm only seventeen."

Alec sits in his recliner, throwing his face in his hands. "Yeah. Sorry."

I can tell he's upset with my response, but what else was I going to say? Even though I'm completely wrapped around this little angel's fingers, I'm not ready to be a mom, let alone to a baby that isn't mine.

I scold myself for those thoughts. Sapphire deserved the best life. She was given the short end of the stick when it comes to mothers, so I'm going to make sure she has a good one. She needs to grow up knowing she's loved unconditionally, I'm making it my job to see through to that.

"Hi there baby girl," I coo. "It's your mommy Eva here."
