Miley's POV

Liam and I were cuddling on the couch watching TV before it was time to get the kids. Liam looked at his watch and stood up.

"Is it time?" I ask, Liam nods in conformation. "Should I go get them as a surprise?"

"I think it'd be a better surprise if they walked in here and saw you."

"Okay sounds good, drive safe."

"I always do." I smile at Liam before he leaves the house.

I waited a while I until I saw Liam's car pull up in the driveway. I got up off the couch and stood facing the door. I was smiling so hard my face will probably get stuck like this. I see the kids come inside and Liam follows and shuts the door. The kids turn to see me and dropped their backpacks. They ran as fast as they could and I got lower to give them a hug.

"Mom you're home!" Jessica says excitedly. The kids give me a big hug and they didn't wanna let go.

"We missed you so much." Cecilia says.

"Are you home for good now?" Leonardo asks.

"Yes, I'm here for good now. Which means you kids can let me go." They all let go and I stand up. "Take your backpacks and put your shoes where they belong, I've got a surprise for all of you."

"Is it what you showed me earlier?" Liam asks and I nod.

"Mhm. The kids are gonna go nuts."

The kids come out of their rooms and walk back into the living room.

"Okay kids, remember when I told you I'd get you something from wherever I went?" Everyone nods in response. "Well hold on, I'm gonna go get it."

I walk into Liam's and my room to get the bags with the kids' name on them. I walk into the living room with the bags and motion for the kids to back up a bit. I handed each one their own bag.

"Jessica, Leo, Cece. Everything in there is from everywhere I performed. One for every one of you."

The kids opened their bags and immediately smiled.

"What'd they get?" Liam asks. "I didn't see everything."

"A t-shirt and keychain from everywhere. England, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy...and many more."

"These are so cool mom!"

"What do we say to mom?" Liam asks, reminding the kids.

"Thank you." They all say together.

"You are so welcome. And you all have the same stuff so you won't argue about who has what. The only difference is the shirt sizes."

"Go put everything in your rooms." Cecilia and Jessica go to their room and Leonardo goes to his.

"Well, they all love it which is good."

"Which is great." Liam says, correcting me. "When are you gonna tell your family you're back? You should probably do that before they see paparazzi pictures of you online."

"Yeah definitely. I'm gonna go tomorrow, I hope it'll be okay til I tell them. I kept everything pretty low so I don't think anyone saw me."

"Okay, let's get the kids ready for dinner."

March 31st

"Babe are you sure you wanna go this early? Why 10:00am? Why not wait til the afternoon?" Liam asks while I'm getting ready to leave.
