(EDITING) Under A Lonely Moon

Part Fourty

Nova's P.O.V

Right, everything was in place and ready. I was sweating buckets, literally. This needed to be

Perfect. No mistakes.

I glanced at the clock. Half past six. Ok. Reservations were at eight so time to get ready and get

Moving.

'Zak sweetie.' I called poking my head round the door to the living room where I could hear my

Babies giggles. I smiled as I looked down at my beautiful mate as he played with our children.

'Dada!' Kasper squealed as he came hurtling towards me, running straight into my knees.

I laughed as he tried to crawl up my legs to get into my arms.

'Hows my big boy?' I cooed.

'Daddy play too!' He giggled with excitement.

'Sorry baby not today. Me and daddy have some things to do.' I told him which earned me a pout.

'But how about I take you to the park tomorrow?' I bargained and his little face lit up immediately.

'Promise daddy! Noah and Izzy too?' He asked oh so sweetly.

I chuckled, 'yea Noah and Izzy too.'

'Come on then, let's go see uncle Nathan.' Zak smiled as he stood with the twins balanced on his

Little hips, one each side.

We walked down the halls towards Nathan's room chatting away casually. The smile on my little

Mates face melted my heart. Zak was now completely 100% healthy and his nightmares were few

And far between which meant he was thankfully getting more than enough sleep. Unless other

Activities kept him awake.

'Uncle Nate!' Kasper screamed when Nathan opened the door.

'Hey buddy, how's my little man?' Nathan grinned as he took Kasper from me and held him above

His head.

'Thanks for looking after them for us. Owe you one.' I smiled and patted his back as he stepped

Aside to let Zak past.

'Anytime Nova. I love spending time with the little terrors.' He chuckled.

Zak settled the twins in Nathan's bed and we left to get ourselves ready.

'Come on Zak, it's time to go.' I called into the bathroom. Zak was like a freaking woman when it

Came to getting ready to go out. He took so long it was unreal.

'Coming, coming,' he huffed as he finally emerged from the bathroom. 'This look okay?' He asked

Nervously.

I stood there wide eyed, mouth open for a while before I answered. 'You look beautiful baby.' I

Smiled and pulled him into me, leaning down and placing a gentle kiss on his lips. He looked

Stunning in his suit and tie. I wasn't going to lie but it aroused me terribly. 'Come on then, let's go.'

I smiled and took his hand in mine and led him to the car.

The drive to the restaurant was silent, with only a few words exchanged.

'Wow,' Zak whispered as he set eyes on the restaurant.
