"Logan its your turn." Alex groans next to me as Leven's screams come through the monitor. She pushes me out of the bed. I walk into Megan's room and gently pick her up. I sit down in the rocking chair, cradling her.
"You are just set on not letting mommy and daddy sleep, arent you?" I whisper to her, gently rocking back and forth. "God you are just like your mom. You know that?" I ask as if she would give me a response. "Such an annoying little thing but yet I love you so much. Oh and you are going to be so beautiful just like your mommy. I already see her in you. The way you are restless and always are moving but somehow you seem to capture my attention completely and I love that. I look down at Megan who is now back to sleep. I gently set her down in the crib. I look up at Alex who is smiling at me. I walk over to her and kiss her.
"I am not annoying." She whispers. I wrap my arms around her. "So don't you even think of calling me annoying again." She whispers poking my chest.
"Lets go to bed." I quietly laugh. I take her hand as we walk back to our room. I lay down next to her and wrap my arms around her. "We are getting married tomorrow." I whisper still in shock that the day has finally come.
"I know." She sighs. "You aren't going to leave me at the alter are you?" She asks.
"Babe trust me, I could never leave you." I say reassuring her. "I love you too much to ever leave you. I honestly cant wait to spend the rest of my life with you and little Leven and Megan and any other babies we decide to have. I love you so much." I whisper to her.
"Save that for tomorrow you dork." She laughs pushing my head away.
"Yea okay." I whisper.

"Dont forget your tie." My mom says handing me the tie. I hold it for a minute trying to remember how to actually tie a tie. She takes it back from me. "What are you going to do without me." She laughs carefully tying it. I can see her hands shaking. Once she finishes, I take her hands in mine.
"Mom." I say calming her down. I notice the tears in her eyes. She hasnt been the same since dad died right after Megan was born. I know it was hard on her. It was hard on everyone. We lost our father but she lost the love of her life and I cant imagine going through that or Alex going through that.
"Yea I know." She says placing her head on my chest. "I just dont want to lose you anymore than I already have." She tells me.
"I'm still here mom. You will never lose me." I laugh a little hugging her. "I love you." I whisper holding her as tight as I can.
"I love you too." She whispers patting my chest. "Now lets get this show on the road. You have a wedding to attend." She says pulling me out of the room. All I want to do is see Alex. That's all I ever want to do. She could have make up running down her face and I would still think that she is the most beautiful girl in the world. There is just something about her that captivates me and I don't know what it is.
"So you are really getting married today." Taylor says walking up to me with her new boyfriend. "Seems like just yesterday Megan was born." She laughs considering she was on call the night Megan was born and made sure to stop by. And then had to become Megan's doctor once she was diagnosed with leukemia.
"Megan was born four years ago. You could have at least said Leven considering she was born only six months ago." I tell her laughing. She sits me on the arm.
"I can easily take my gift back so watch it." She warns me leaning against Liam.
"No you would probably end up taking if for yourself." Liam says laughing. She pushes away from him. "I don't like any of you." She mumbles under her breath. I look at Liam who nods in agreement. We both wrap are arms around her. "You love us." We say at the same time.
