I let out a contented sigh as I adjust the steaming mug in my hands, and lean on the porch railing in front of me. In front of me is a beautiful sunrise of pinks and oranges. I watch as Tyler and my father, work together leading the horses out into the fields. My dad, glances up and sees me watching and waves at me with a grin. Tyler catches him waving and looks in my direction, glancing to my dad he passes of the lead on Jade, before jogging to where I stand. He stops in front of me leaning his own arms on the porch rail between my own. "Good mornin' darlin'." He tells me and leans over quickly meeting my lips. He pulls back and smiles at me. "How's my girl doin' this mornin'?"
I roll my eyes and run my fingers through the growing length of his hair. He grimaces and shakes his head out of my hand. I chuckle and lean forward to kiss him. "I'm fine Ty. I was enjoying the view, but at the moment half of it is here blocking the rest." His eyes meet mine and I catch the glint of happiness in them. "You really need a haircut or something. It's a bit long at the moment."
He nods and groans, briefly tugging on the ends of his hair as if to prove the point. "I know, I'll do it later. I hate having it this long."
Suddenly I hear my dad's voice call across the path from where he stands. "Are you two done flirting or so I have to do all the work this morning? I'm an old man, I might die."
I snort as Tyler chuckles and starts to turn away, but I grab the collar of his shirt pulling him back for a moment. I kiss the corner of his lips, "I love you."
He brushes the falling hairs out of my face and kisses my cheek. "I love you too. But I should get back to helping, wouldn't want the old man to keel over." I smile and shake my head as he walks back to where my dad stands. "And Dee?" I look over to him, "That shirt looks much better on you than it does me." He winks at me as I blush and hide behind the mug of tea.

I'm sitting at my desk flipping through some files when I hear the door to my office open. I glance up and see Trent standing and grinning at me. I raise my eyebrow and set the files down, before pushing away from the desk. I walk around to the front, looking next to me where Tyler lays stretched out across the small couch, his legs awkwardly draped over the end, being much to tall for it's length. "Here lets go out to the pastures." Trent glances over at Tyler's sleeping frame, and back to me before nodding. I grab a small sticky note and write that I'll be outside, leaving it on the desk where he can see it if he wakes up.
"So who was that?" Trent asks as soon as the door shuts behind us. I smile at how much happier he seems today, "Well who is he? He looked extremely uncomfortable."
I laugh as he stares at me expectantly, and stop when we reach the pasture with King. "That would be Tyler."
"And....?" Trent says climbing over the fence to join King in the field.
"And you're supposed to use the gate, knuckle head." He scowls at me and crosses he arms pouting. "Good grief, clearly you're in a much better mood today."
Nodding he grins and pulls out his phone, passing it over to me. In front of me is a picture of a sonogram. I study it before looking up at him, and back down to the picture. "Well?" He asks the grin on his face growing even more.
"There is no way you guys are having triplets." I say smiling at him as I toss the phone back to him. His grin grows to impossible lengths, before he nods. "How on earth did they not know this before?"
"I can't explain that one. Something about the fact that two of them were positioned weirdly so they couldn't be seen."He pauses and rubs his hand over his face, still grinning. "I don't even care that I'm now going to have to spend more money. I'm just so insanely happy Lydia, it's crazy. And they're all okay, Ash was just having problems because she wasn't getting any of the nutrients for herself and the level of vitamins was to low."
I shake my head and smile at his enthusiasm, "It'll be hard work, but it will be worth it in the end." I glance over at my shoulder and see Tyler exiting the barn, looking around before he sees me. "Even if it hurts, it's worth it."
