After a few hours the house was done decorated and I had crashed on the couch once again "I'm exhausted, what time is it?" Archie walked inside the room "it's only 8pm, you already tired?"
"I'm tired constantly and I have been since you knocked me up!"
"Hey, don't get mad at me. It takes two to tango" I glared at him annoyingly "I brought you ice cream" he handed me a bowl full of ice cream "I want to be mad at you but I can't when you bring me ice cream" he leaned down and kissed my forehead before walking to the kitchen.

I walked into the kitchen where Betty was sitting eating ice cream "don't let Veronica see that you're eating her ice cream, she would kill you"
"I know, but if you don't tell her you can have some?"
"Sure, give it to me" we sat and talked while eating ice cream. I heard that Veronica was watching tv. When we had finished the ice cream we walked out to the living room. Veronica had fallen asleep on the couch so Betty decided to go home. I carefully woke Veronica up and helped her to her bedroom. I laid her down on our bed and tucked her in. When I tried walking out she grabbed my wrist "wait"
"What?"
"I love you Archie and I'm so happy that you're always here for me and I'm so sorry for being such a pain in the ass"
"It's fine, you're pregnant and hormonal and probably really tired of being pregnant"
"Mhm"
"But now I'm gonna let you sleep. You're exhausted and it's a big day tomorrow, your daughter is having a halloween party"
"Ohh don't say it out loud, it'll be exhausting plus it means that she is growing up. She's starting to have her own parties. She's getting so old and I miss when she was a little baby"
"Well soon we're going to have a new baby" I leaned down and kissed her belly "goodnight Ronnie"
"Goodnight" I walked out to the living room and changed channels to sport instead of whatever show Veronica was watching. While half watching the game I took away the dishes. Just like Veronica I thought that Lilac was growing up to fast. She was just a little baby that couldn't walk or talk. Now she ran around all the time and was the most talkative person ever, except Becky. She had been the most talkative person ever and luckily she had passed it on to Lilac. Hearing Lilac talk and just looking at her made me happy. I saw so much of Rebecca in her and it made me miss her a little bit less. I wanted my bestfriend back everyday but it was like I had gotten a little piece of her in our daughter. I walked back into the living room. I looked at the picture above the tv. It was a picture of me and Rebecca when she was about 7 months pregnant. It was the last picture ever taken of me and her. That picture meant a lot to me, but so did the picture next to it. It was one with Veronica holding Lilac for the very first time. When Lilac was born I wasn't so concentrated on her and Veronica at first, more on Becky. But soon that had changed and as soon as Lilac had gotten out of the NICU Veronica had taken her and I had taken a picture of the two most beautiful things in the entire world.
When the clock turned midnight I also went to bed. It was earlier than usual but it was Lilac's party tomorrow and since her fourth birthday party didn't go so good I wanted this one to make up for it. When I woke up the next morning Veronica had already gotten up. I looked at my phone and it was only 8am. I walked to the living room where I found Veronica on the couch with a cup of tea "goodmorning Ronnie"
"Goodmorning!"
"You seem happy?"
"Yes, I don't know why but I woke up feeling amazing today. It's Lilac's halloween party and it's going to be awesome"
"Well we both know that Lilac's parties haven't been going so good lately"
"Ooo don't say that Archie, nothing bad is going to happen"
"You sure?"
"I'm sure!"
