Noah's POV

The past three years of my life had truly been amazing!

Richelle & I, dated for six months, while living in New York. We spent most nights together, went on dates every week, & spent almost more time together, than we did apart.

As soon as Richelle graduated from her 1 year scholarship at the Academy, she moved move back to Toronto, where she could stay with her family for awhile, & focus on catching back up with them; & work out what her next big career move was.

I chose to stay in New York, as I was still a full-time member of a ballet company, & owned an apartment here. It wouldn't make much sense for me to leave.

Two weeks after Richelle moved back to Toronto, I had a touring ballet show, which was going to take 6 weeks. It was a long time to be away from Richelle, especially since we had already been apart two weeks, but we both promised to keep in contact, & we did.

We texted in the mornings, & Skyped every night. It was a great feeling knowing I had someone special, like Richelle, to talk too everyday!

After I got back from tour, Richelle told me she got a part-time job at The Next Step, where she was teaching both the J-Troupe, & B-Troupe classes. She said it kept her dancing in the off-seasons, & was reasonably good pay, plus it was at our old dance studio, so she was pretty happy about it.

I was marked as an 'extra' for the next touring ballet show, so I was expected to know the routines, & stay in good physical shape & health; but I wasn't needed for every class, so I took two weeks off for vacation leave, & flew back to Toronto, so I could see, Richelle.

As soon as I got back to Toronto, Richelle met me at the airport, & we literally hugged & kissed for a good 5 minutes straight, & got lots of funny looks & wolf whistles.

One night, I took Richelle to a restaurant for dinner, & proposed to her, & she said yes. She actually said yes!

Richelle stayed in Toronto for another month, then moved into my apartment in New York. We wanted to be together to plan our wedding, & sort out everything that needed to be done.

Our wedding was four months later, & was the most incredible day of my life!!

Richelle had Piper, Summer, Emily, & Jacquie as her bridesmaids, & I had Kingston, Henry, Finn, & Ozzy as my groomsmen.

After I broke up with Jacquie, she started dating, Henry. I thought things would be awkward between us, but she was pretty chill about everything. She said she was really happy with Henry, & was glad I had found my true love.

We stayed in New York for a couple more months after our wedding, & did our best to earn an income.

I had gotten into music more often as of recently, & had released a few songs, which were pretty popular. I was still dancing at the ballet company also, & was getting paid per show I performed. Richelle was teaching dance classes at a studio near our apartment, & had been asked to dance for quite a few commercials, which she was pretty happy about, plus it was good pay.

As soon as we had enough money, we bought a house in LA, & decided to make the big move. We knew LA held a lot of opportunity's for us, & we both had pretty good jobs lined up for as soon as we arrived, so it seemed like the perfect place for us to be.

We were both pretty nervous about moving there. Richelle was already homesick, & missed her family. I missed my mum, but we both knew we needed to focus on our future, & our career. Two very important things!

We had lived in LA for just over 18 months now, & life was great. Both Richelle & I, had been cast as main characters for a dance TV show called Life On Pointe, & we were really enjoying it.

There was three seasons of Life On Pointe, & we had just finished filming season 3. We had grown close with all of the cast, so it was quite emotional saying goodbye to everyone, & of course, to the show!

Richelle had been focusing rather heavily on her acting in recent months, & had also starred in two movies, & had done multiple commercials.

I had been releasing music whenever I had spare time, & was teaching dance classes, so we were both still heavily focusing on dance, whilst making a good income.

Despite all that, our main priority was our relationship, & we always put each other first. We always made time for one another, had date nights, & cuddled at home. I loved this girl, & wanted her to forever know that, & believe it!

I was so happy with this girl, & couldn't wait to spend the rest of my life with her.

"Noah, come here!" Richelle called out from the bedroom, so I hopped up off of the couch, & casually made my way into the bedroom.

"What's up babe?" I asked, looking at my feisty blonde wife, who was sitting on our queen sized bed, a slightly concerned look upon her face.

"I think we should fly back to Toronto & see the family. It's been far too long!" she explained, biting her bottom lip.

"Yeah, sure. I can book flights for the two of us for tomorrow?" I suggested, but Richelle shook her read.

"The three of us, Noah." She corrected me. Now I was confused.

"The three of us? Who else are we bringing back?" I asked curiously, raising an eyebrow at her.

Suddenly, Richelle opened the draw 9f her bedside table, & handed me a pregnancy test that read... Wait... Positive?!

"You're pregnant?" I asked, & saw Richelle's eyes begin to turn glassy.

"It appears so. Is that a problem?" She asked in a very soft tone. I almost couldn't hear her.

"Babe, that is amazing! I've always wanted to be a Dad!" I shrieked with excitement, bouncing around on the bed, as Richelle giggled excitedly.

"I'm so ready for this!" I exclaimed, grinning from ear-to-ear. I dropped back down onto the bed, & kissed Richelle passionately.

"We're having a baby!" she said, crying tears of joy. I smiled, resting our foreheads against each others.

"We are!" I replied.

My life was truly complete.

Oh my gosh guys!! That's the end!!
Thank you all so so so much for sticking with me this long, for reading my book, all the votes, and the really nice comments!
This book was a long journey, but I loved it, & now the book has come to an end. Its sad in a way, but I feel happy at the same time. AHH!! Tysm again!!!💜

Let me know if you think a possible sequel is something you'd be keen to read! It'll be to do with their child, obviously, & might go through the years of their child's life, & their struggles as parents, & them putting their relationship to the test. It'll probably be in the far far future months, as I have other books to focus on at the moment, but it's an option. So, let me know your thoughts! 😊
