The Affair

Epilogue

Ryan's POV

I went with Chloe to the hospital to get checked out, she had a concussion so she had to stay over night but she was discharged the next day and both her and the baby were in good health

He went to court 2 days later and wasn't granted bail because of his actions

Two weeks later it went to trial, they made Chloe testify and me too, but I wasn't the one who was pregnant or the one who's to be married to the guy

He got 5 years in jail for what he did to her, just what he deserved, I'm only sorry about how late it came, he should've had a punishment for this shit years ago

Chloe was also granted a restraining order and filed for divorce, she's been granted full custody of Archie permanently and the second she could she moved out and moved in with me

3 months later I won custody of Hannah and it was the best moment of my life having everyone I love finally together under one roof

Chloe's POV

Ryan adopted Archie after Thomas lost his rights for what happened

My divorce was finalised two months before I was due and then just two weeks early we welcomed our daughter Lacey into the world

Ryan's POV

Lacey was the most beautiful little baby girl I'd ever seen and her mother no less beautiful

Hannah and Archie both fell instantly in love with her too, it was amazing

Right then and there with all my favourite people in one room I did it, I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me

Her and Hannah were totally on my case for my timing choices but that was just the icing on the cake, my sister and fiancée getting along so well

Our wedding day soon came and it was beautiful, Archie was just about old enough to get down the isle all by himself as a groomsman, even though he was a rather tiny one and Hannah and Lacey came down together as bridesmaids

Everything was perfect, it was the most magical day

Today is one year since we began our affair, an affair which lead to this, the most beautiful and perfect family I could have possibly asked for, I mean sure we're dysfunctional and we sound like a totally crazy family, we're nothing near the perfect traditional family but you know what? Who cares? We're happy just the way we are

"Ryan!" Hannah exclaimed as I grabbed her and lifted her up into the air which stopped her from catching Archie to tag him

We were all outside in the garden of our new house which we moved into a few weeks ago

That apartment was meant for me and Hannah not me, Hannah, Chloe, Archie and Lacey so we had to get something bigger

"Awe dear, did I ruin it for you? Here tag me in, I've got my eye on someone to tag!" I told her with a smirk, she giggled and Chloe's eyes went wide

"Crap" I heard her whisper and that caused me to chuckle to myself, she knew I was coming for her

"Tag!" Hannah exclaimed as I put her down, we high-tenned and then she ran away

"Well hello Chloe" I toyed with her as I walked towards her and she stepped away

"I'm not playing!" She exclaimed but she was smiling the whole time

"Is that so?" I replied, we were both grinning

"Lacey's probably hungry" she tried to buy herself a clean break but it's not working, I know she fed Lacey an hour ago

She'd backed herself into a corner so I lunged for her and wrapped her up in a hug

"Gotcha!" I exclaimed as I kissed the crook of her neck gently a few times, then she turned around and we kissed properly until we were interrupted

"EW! STOPPP!" Hannah complained even though she couldn't stop giggling long enough to do it

This was it, this was our life

I feel terrible that I didn't stop Thomas the first chance I got but there will always be a part of me that feels guilty for a different reason

That reason would be that a small part of me doesn't regret a thing because I know that if he'd not have met Chloe then neither would I and any one choice being different in the past could have changed the outcome of everything now and I could never be sorry for loving Chloe or for having Lacey with her or for getting custody of Hannah or for taking in Archie as my own

Not a single one of the people stood before me could ever be counted as one of my regrets

How is it something which is supposed to be so terrible could lead to something so amazing?

Our beautiful, amazing family was made purely on the basis of one little thing

An affair

THE END
