Marshall's POV

I wake up around 9:00, I slept in. Oh well, I have nothing going on today. I look to my right and see that Bey is no longer there. I panic a little, thinking that she might've left me for good. But then, I realize that Bey is not the type to do that.

I get up, get dressed and brush my teeth. I make my way downstairs and see that Bey is there with the twins, making breakfast.

The twins are in their high chairs, I don't know why, but I give them a quick kiss on the head. I then make my way to Bey and wrap my arms around her while I rest my chin on her shoulder. "Good morning" I whisper in her ear. She giggles and then says, "good morning."

I turn her around and kiss her. "Mom? Marshall?" I hear a voice. I separate from Bey and look to see Blue in the doorway. "Hey, good morning sweetie" I say to her, awkwardly. "Good morning. What's going on?"

Bey goes to her and bends down to her level, then starts explaining. "Sweetheart, I know this may be hard for you. But, me and Marshall are dating. Is that okay with you?" Hopefully Blue is okay with it because I really like Bey, and it's important to me to have her kids like me too.

Blue smiles and then says, "Yea that's fine momma, Marshall is cool and funny." Whew, good she likes me! I let out a breath, I didn't know I was holding in. "One question though, is it okay if I start calling you dad or daddy?" Blue asks me. Aw, this little girl makes me softer than I already am.

"Blue..." Bey trails off. "No it's okay Bey. Sure sweetie, you can call me whatever you want." "Okay...... daddy." She tells us she's going to go change and brush her teeth, before she comes back down for breakfast.

"Hey, sorry if you don't want her calling me dad or I crossed the line. But, she looked so adorable and hopeful, I couldn't say no to her."

"No, it's okay. I'm just glad she has you now, Jay was barely a father. Sure, he bought her whatever she wanted. But, what she really wanted was to spend time with him" Bey replies. "Well, I will gladly spend time with her whenever she wants."

We start serving breakfast and wait for Blue to come downstairs again. She finally comes back and we start eating, thank god, I was starving.

We talk over breakfast and when we're done, we wash the dishes. Bey soon gets a phone call and leaves the kitchen to go answer it. Me and Blue finish up the dishes, me washing and her drying. When we're done, I tell Blue to take care of the twins while I go make sure everything is okay with Bey.

I enter the room and see her sitting on the bed just looking at the wall. "Hey babe, you okay?" I ask. "Yea I'm fine. That was my lawyer, he said that Jay signed the divorce papers. So, I'm now officially divorced. He also mentioned that the court case for the custody of the kids is in two weeks. It's in LA though because Jay can't come to Detroit so we have to go over there."

"Okay sounds good. I'm going over to LA in two weeks too, so we could all go together. I have to work on a few songs for the new album there."

"You're dropping a new album? Why? Revival was really good, especially 'Walk on Water'."

I chuckle, "Yea I thought so too, but apparently my fans and everyone else didn't think so. That's why I'm going to drop another one, to prove them wrong. I'm gonna call it 'Kamikaze'."

"Well, I'm proud of you no matter what" she says as she pecks me on the lips. "I wanted to talk to you about something" I say to her.
"Okay, what is it?"

"I was actually thinking, how about you and the kids move in? They could each get their own bedroom." "That sounds great babe, but what if we don't last? What if something happens?" she asks looking down at her lap and a little sad.

"Hey look at me. Baby, I promise that nothing bad will happen between us. I know you just got out of a relationship and I haven't been in one in ages. But, I promise to give this relationship my all, but only if you can do the same." "I promise to give it my all, too" she says with a smile. There's that smile I love.

"Okay, so will you guys move in?" I ask hopeful that she'll say yes. She nods her head with a big smile on her face. "Great, you wanna go shopping today for the kids' rooms? We have nothing else to do." "Sounds great." We leave the room and go back to where the kids are.

"Blue, we're moving and we need to go shopping for the new rooms. So, let's go" Bey says enthusiastically. Man I love her! Wait— did I just say love? What's happening to me? We go to the car and leave to the store.

*2 and a half hours later*

We finally get back home after what seemed like forever. We got a lot of different things for the rooms. We make our way upstairs and start decorating Blue's room first.

*three hours later* (just pretend it takes that long to decorate a room, lol)

We just finished Blue's room and it turned out great. It actually took less time than I thought it would.

Now we just need to do the twins' room. We decided to have them share a room for now, and when they get older they could have separate rooms if they wanted.

That's if me and Bey are still together, which hopefully we will. I could just picture us in the future together, I've never felt like this towards someone in a long time.

^Twins' room

Whew, we just finished. And we are exhausted. It's now 7:30 and we decide to get pizza for dinner. For the rest of the night we just eat pizza and watch movies.

We put Blue and the twins to bed and then when they're asleep we go to watch tv in our room. Yes, it's our room now because Bey moved all her things in here.

We watch tv and hold each other until around 11. I notice I'm the only one awake now, Bey is sleeping peacefully, right next to me. I decide to go to sleep too and shut off the tv and then close my eyes.
