Jordan was busy on the road promoting his new album. He had composed the last song he needed to complete it right after Raven sparked the idea at the bar by calling him a rockstar.The kids were growing rapidly. They finally got Dalton's health issues under control and he was finally catching up in all areas to his sisters .They were cooing smiling and babbling now .The twins would soon be a year old. Where had the year gone so fast? Jordan wondered .He smiled as he reached for his phone to call his wife and check on his family.

Lo? He heard her answer on the fourth ring. What are you doing? He asked Why is your voice muffled he chuckled

Silence and then shuffling .What in the world was she doing?

Dadada!!! Aislynne squealed into the phone, piercing his eardrum. Hi baby girl daddy misses you he told Aislynne She chuckled Give mama the phone he told his daughter. No was he response Oh boy apparently she had learned a new word since he had been gone. More shuffling .Dada!!!! Was heard again with a fit of baby laughter Hey Wyatt Hi buddy Jordan told his son. He heard a thud. Wyatt must have dropped her phone. Baby? He questioned I'm here she told him. So I'll be home in a few days he told her .Another eardrum splitting squeal .This time said squeal was emitted from his wife.Hows the promotional end coming she asked Lonely he murmured .I miss you so much .I can't wait to be home with you guys . How long will you be home sugar she asked hoping it was for a decent stretch? Until the tour starts he murmured He moved the phone away from his ear. Knowing what was coming. The tour didn't start until the beginning of the summer. After they hung up Raven went into planning mode. She wanted to set up a surprise welcome home party for Jordan. A shrill mamamama broke her concentration. "Yes Miss Aislynne?" she asked her eldest daughter as she picked her up. She let out a screech and began saying dadada as she tried to get to Raven's phone. "I know baby mommy misses him too but he'll be home soon." she told her daughter. Aislynne giggled and wanted down so Raven put her on the floor and watched her run to her siblings. She called her favorite bakery and ordered a cake. She called Jon to tell him when Jordan would be home and asked for help with the party. She was excited.

The party was planned by later that evening. Raven exhaustedly flopped on their bed. She booted up her laptop to work on her latest piece. Skype started ringing as she submitted her piece to her editor. She accepted the call. Big beautiful brown eyes and a huge dimple filled smile appeared on her screen. Hello my Belle. Jordan!! What were you expecting Mickey Mouse? He teased. Very funny Mr. She retorted .Where are you? She asked .On the bus he replied sounding like she had asked an odd question. Well duh I knew that she said shaking her head I meant city Mr. Wiseass

He stood up and pointed his ass at the screen Wide ass? Since when do I have a wide ass? She burst out laughing She wasn't gonna win this one he was in one of his playful moods and she wasn't gonna get a straight answer. "Damn babe! Thanks for the moon." she said still laughing. Anytime sweetheart he promised .He still hadn't told her where he was. She felt a twinge of worry with his history but decided to trust him.

"How's the tour going? Are you having fun this time around?" she asked still trying to figure out where he was. These fans are nuttier than usual he admitted. I can't wait to come home. How so she asked Get a bra or a thong tossed in your face and come talk to me he grumbled .She chuckled .It's not funny the fans know I'm happily married he told her as he smiled lovingly into the screen. These fans are nuttier than usual he admitted. I can't wait to come home. How so she asked Get a bra or a thong tossed in your face and come talk to me he grumbled .She chuckled .It's not funny the fans know I'm happily married he told her as he smiled lovingly into the screen. "Sadly that comes with the territory darlin. The fans see you as a sex symbol and I can't say I blame them." she reminded him "I know but it's just so hard sometimes .I'm a man nothing more nothing less ".he told her honestly She knew his shyness was coming out with some of the fan encounters but she also knew that his fame was overwhelming to him. "You'll get used to it baby. Just remember none of those girls love you. Only I do and the children do." she said trying to calm his thoughts He smiled again. Thank god for you my belle he whispered .You keep me grounded and sane through all this craziness .I love you so much and our babies too "We'll always be here baby and when the babies get older we can go on tour with you. It'll be fun" she said they chatted for a little while longer when Aislynne toddled into their room. She squealed when she saw Jordan on the screen.DADADA Aislynne aren't you supposed to be in bed .No! came the apparent new favorite word .Aislynne Marcella get your little butt in bed now he told her sternly .She said no but toddled back to the nursery anyway .Lord she got a temper like her mama he told her .Watch it Mr. Knight . "I wish I knew where she learned no from. I'd like to give them a piece of my mind. It's no everything." she said giggling. Wasn't me .Bet it was her Uncles he smirked Baby girl I gotta go for a little bit. Signal is shitty .Ill skype you again when it's better service .I love you sweetheart he told her as he blew her a kiss. "I love you too darlin. Be safe" she said as the screen went black. She worked on a few notes for her next piece and closed the laptop. She popped in a cd and let his amazing voice soothe her as she cuddled into his pillow and drifted off to sleep. The sound of Iona crying woke her from her sleep. She sat up and had her feet on the floor when the crying stopped .She went into the bathroom and then padded back to bed .She heard giggling she loved when her children interacted with one another. The giggling stopped and the nursery quieted .She drifted back off to sleep. Sun streaked in through the curtains. Raven sat upright .What time was it? Had she slept all night? Had she been so exhausted that she hadn't heard the babies? What kind of mother was she? She hurriedly got out of bed and raced to the nursery. When she got to the doorway she stopped dead in her tracks. There in a rocker sat her husband with all of their children all sound asleep. She held a hand to her mouth so the sob she felt wouldn't escape and hurried to the bathroom. After finishing up in the bathroom she made her way to the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. As she was pouring a cup she felt his arms come around her waist.Surpise my beautiful belle "he whispered in her ear. She turned so she was facing him and kissed him. Baby you said in a few days! I know he smirked I wanted to surprise you "She snuggled into his embrace before he led her up to their room.
