"Harry, I swear to god, if you give my child another lollipop, I will kill you" I heard Matt say, as I rolled my eyes.

I placed all the paper plates on the table. "Bite me," was Harry's reply.

"Need any help?" Conner asked as he moved up beside me.

Straightening up, I folded my hand over my seven month pregnant stomach, completely out of habit. "Uh yeah, can you grab the salads from inside?" I asked him.

He plopped his bottle of beer down with a nod and disappeared inside. Looking up, I smiled. Matthew held out his arms as our five year old daughter went zooming into them, being chased by Harry.

"Where do you want them?" Conner asked, breaking me from my daydream.

"Anywhere on the table," I said before thanking him.

I waddled to the edge of the patio and looked out over the four adults acting like children. Wes and Courtney were on the swings, talking and my husband and one of my best friends were currently pretending to be dinosaurs.

"Lunch is ready!" I called out.

Harry, looked up and started for us. Wes and Courtney followed. Gathering our sweet little girl in his arms, my Husband walked towards me with a lighthearted smile on his face.

Reaching me, he kissed my cheek. "Looks amazing, babe" he said.

I smiled and turned to let him pass. As everyone settled and started to load their plates, I glanced at Conner.

Biting his lip, the man stood up.

He breathed in deeply. "As we all know, we all had a pretty rough high school experience, we lost friends, made friends-," he said, gesturing to Courtney who smiled. "And we've all had our fair share of fights," he said, gesturing to Matt and I.

Sofia sat nestled in her father's arms, making cute little baby noises that resembled Conner's speech.

"We've loved, experienced and we've certainly become a lot better at being human than we were three years ago," Conner added, making as chuckled.

Harry stared up at his boyfriend with amusment.

"We have our weaknesses and our strengths, and we're family, we have our Lord and Saviour, Matt and his beautiful wife and daughter," Conner said, causing Matt to lift his drink and cheer.

I laughed. "We have Wes and our once enemy turned friend, the beautiful Courtney," he gestured to them.

Courtney grinned.

"And I have the light of my life, the reason I get up everyday, the person that glues us all together, my sexy boyfriend," Conner said, gesturing to Harry who rolled his eyes.

"Harry and I have traveled the world in our three year relationship, soon four and we've tried every dangerous activity we could find," he continued.

I took Matt's hand, squeezing it gently. He glanced at me, his eyes soft. "Nothing is more dangerous than love, and I love you so much," Conner added, turning to look at Harry.

"Love you too," Harry replied with a chuckle.

"There is just one dangerous activity we haven't tried yet," Conner asked, his voice soft.

Harry frowned, confused.

Pulling back his chair, Conner reached behind him and pulled out a small velvet box. Courtney squealed. Harry shot up, his eyes on the box.

"Boy, that better be a ring or I'm going to kill you!" He exclaimed, as Conner laughed.

Slowly, he got down on one knee. Harry gasped. "You are my ride or die, the one person I always want to come home to, I cannot see a future that doesn't include you" Conner began.

Harry leaned forward. "Gay marriage is legal now, and I so hope you say yes because my knee really hurts, love of my life, will you do me the extrodinary honour of marry-" Conner was saying before Harry interrupted.

"Yes, yes yes!" He exclaimed.

Wes, Courtney, Matt and I cheered as Harry launched forward and pulled his new fiance into a huge hug. Clapping, Conner opened the box and pulled out a simple gold band.

The lunch went on quite nicely, buzzing about the new engagement and when it was time for everyone to go home, Harry couldn't stop looking at his hand.

I waved them out just as Matt walked down the stairs. "She's asleep," he said, before walking over to me.

I let him take me into his arms, one hand holding me, the other touching my belly. "God, I can't wait for baby number two" he said, before looking up.

"Me either, I hate not bending," I replied with a chuckle.

Leaning in, Matt pressed a kiss on my forehead. "Yeah but you look so god damn good pregnant," he said before pulling away.

"Might look good but I don't feel it," I replied, tilting my head up.

Slowly, Matthew pressed a kiss on my mouth, before deepening it. He let out a soft moan. "It's simply not fair, how come he gets to have your whole body and I can't?" He asked, pulling away.

He knelt down in front of my stomach. "Now, you better hurry up because I really would love my wife back," he said before kissing the curve.

I rolled my eyes. "You do have your wife, she's just unavailable for the next six weeks," I replied before laughing.

Matthew stood up. "I did read somewhere that sex can help make things go faster for our little one," he said with a sly smirk.

I chuckled. "Anything to get me naked," I said under my breath.

He took my hand and pulled me in, before trailing a finger down the side of my arm. "What can I say, my beautiful pregnant wife is such a turn on for me," he whispered in my ear.

I shivered, my eyes closing as he pressed his lips under my ear. "What are the pros to having sex while pregnant?" I rasped out.

"Less pain, can help you and our baby sleep, helps with his immune system, I've read it all, baby" Matthew said, continuing down my neck and across my shoulder blade.

I moaned. "Fuck it, let's do it" I said, grabbing Matthew's hand.

He laughed as I pulled him up the stairs.

THE END

From the bottom of my heart.
