Music blared through the backyard. The sound of laughter and children's screams filled the air. Ali couldn't help but smile as she saw the chubby cutie run from the medium size dog.
"Joshua Wayne Fields, slow down around that pool!"
He giggled before turning his blue eyes toward his mommy.
"Sorry mommy! I slow down!"
"Good boy!"
Emily smiled at her son as he and the dog semi ran/Walked to go play with his best friend, three-year-old Jacob Rivers. Emily blew a kiss at her son while she carried a sleeping 4-month-old Bella Cavanaugh in her arms. Ali walked up, gushing over her.
"Oh my goodness. Look at how precious you are! Look at her little dress!"
Ezra walked by laughing, sipping his beer.
"Careful Em. Sounds like someone is getting baby fever."
Em smiled at Ezra before lifting little Bella up and sliding her into her wife's arms. She smiled as she watched Ali coo at the baby.
"Mama! Mommy!"
Both Ali and Em looked toward the house as their daughters ran towards them. They looked like miniature versions of Em but they had lighter skin and blonde hair. They were simply gorgeous in their matching pink, white and blue dresses.
"Yes girls?"
"Grandma's here!"
Just them, Pam made her way in the yard, followed by Daniel, the man she'd been seeing for about a year. While Emily knew that he could never replace Wayne, she liked him. He was a retired firefighter who was taking a leap of faith into local politics.
She turned her head when she felt Ali kiss her cheek. She smiled at her wife. Ali was now the head of the English Department at Rosewood High while Emily had decided to launch her own training facility in Rosewood. Paige had decided to get far away from Rosewood when the details of her role in Emily and the girls kidnapping played out. Maya's brother had been caught after a few weeks on the run and he'd squealed like a pig. Maya was admitted into a mental center on the outskirts of Pennsylvania. She hadn't been right since she shot Em and had been in a comatose like state ever since. It had also been revealed that Maya killed Addison for bullying her niece and her friends. She'd also killed the man who her brother was accused of killing.
Emily took the site where Paige was planning hers and had used the money from the settlement with the hospital to build the building and kick off her facility. Athletes from all over came there to train with Emily. Not to mention, she still kept her job as the swim coach. The Sharks swim team were now National Champs two years in a row.
"Mom! Hi Daniel!"
Emily hugged them both before Ali did the same.
"Alison, give me this cutie pie!"
Pam picked up Bella and more cooing ensued.
"God, Bella's going to be so spoiled."
Ali hit Em's arm.
"Don't act like you aren't part of the reason."
Bella wasn't even able to hold her neck up right, but thanks to Em, she now had a miniature pony on her parent's ranch.
"Hey! Tim gave us two and I figured Lily and Grace could share Buttercup."
Ali chuckled as she grabbed her wife's hand and walked over by the cake.
"Ayyyeee yooo! Uncle Jace in the hizzouse!"
All the adults chuckled as the kids ran and crowded around him. He picked up Lily and Grace, kissing them all over their faces. Kenneth walked in behind him shaking his head before swooping up the twins in his arms. The girls giggled as their grandpa tickled them.
Jason saw Josh jumping up and down clapping his hands. He held out his arms.
"Big man! Get over here!"
Josh ran over to Jason and Jason picked him up, swinging him in the air before catching him. That made the toddler giggle with glee.
"So, big man, we're going to let you ride in with style. We'll be back for Jay's grand entrance ladies and gentlemen."
Hanna walked over.
"If he comes back here in a Mercedes, I'm making Caleb step his game up or we'll never hear the end of this!"
The girls giggled. Spencer cuddled Bella to her chest while Aria smiled at Ezra and their son, 1-year-old Tiran.
Pretty soon they heard Josh giggling as he rode into the yard with his new F-150 toy truck. Em and Ali both took out their phone taking pictures of their grinning baby boy pulling up in front of them.
"Mama! Mommy! Look!"
Everyone crowded around gushing at his truck. Jacob came over and jumped in the passenger seat before they rode off with an excited Pepe following behind them.
Em and Ali looked at each other and took in the moment. There was so much happiness in the air. All of their friends and family simply enjoying life.
They couldn't wish for a better environment to raise their family in. Love and Happiness.
