Things went back to normal very quickly at home. Clarke, Janet and Eissa had a normal routine of playing hide and seek all throughout the house. They slept in late, built forts for movie nights and made dinner every night, together as a family.

Their growing baby boy was with them a full two weeks before returning to London to be with his father. Although Janet was sad to see him go, it gave her and Clarke some much needed time alone.

Clarke relaxed in the living room as she enjoyed the humid breeze in the air. She gazed out at the water as she reflected on what her life had become.

Her thoughts went to Janet's big night. She'd underestimated the time she had to purchase her ticket to the event. Every seat in the building had been filled, but she beamed with pride at the photos taken from that night. Gil made sure to capture every moment for her. Her baby had made it in.

Janet peeked her head around the corner and smiled lovely at her.

"There you are." She said as she took a seat and snuggled close to Clarke. "Is everything okay baby?"

Clarke glanced at her, then back at the pictures and smiled.

"I'm just so proud. You're glowing in every picture Gil sent me." Janet blushed.

"Thank you. It was such a great honor, I'm just sad I couldn't share it with you." She said as she took Clarke's hand and kissed it.

Clarke reached over and pulled Janet onto her lap. She gently gripped her hips, gazed at her and smiled.

"We should go out tonight. Not to a club or anything, just some where nice, maybe catch some live music. What do you say?" Clarke asked with a hopeful smile. Janet nodded.

"I love that idea. Yes let's do that but I need to go to the studio first. Preston is on his way." She said and stood up.

"Well let me hurry and get dressed. I'll come with you." Clarke got up and headed for the bedroom. Janet close behind her.
