*Four Years Later*
"Annabelle, come get your breakfast, mommy is busy with Jacob" I shout up the stairs. "Coming!" My daughter replies. I hold my 8 month old son tightly on my waist and I heat up another bottle.
"Are daddy and auntie Josie coming over today?" Annabelle questions curiously. "Yes I believe so baby" I smile, giving Jacob his bottle.
"Yay" she squeals happily. Fate was definitely on Annabelle's side that day because two seconds later a loud knock is heard. "Daddy!" She gushed.
"Hold on sweetie let mommy open the door." I say walking over to the door. "Hey Sweets, where's Josie?" I question my ex lover. "We uh split up" he stutters nervously.
"Oh well I'm sorry about that, come in Annabelle is dying to see you" I smile. His face lights up as he sees our little girl. He picks her up and rests her on his hip. "Hey little rascal" he chuckles.
"I missed you daddy" Annabelle smiles. "I missed you too princess" I smile at the nickname. "Why don't you try on the new dress I got you?" He asks. "What do you mean?" The little girl questions.
"Oh right here" he says taking out a beautiful blue and pink dress from a bag. "I love it daddy!" Annabelle squeals before running off to her room.
"Little guy's gotten so big!" Sweet Pea chuckles. "Yeah it seems like just yesterday I signed the adoption papers for this little guy" I say handing him to Sweet Pea.
He sits down on a chair next to the couch. I always wondered what could've been with him and I. I personally still haven't lost hope for us.
"He's perfect" I smile, touching his face. "You did amazing with these two" he says just as Annabelle comes down the stairs. "You look beautiful babygirl" I gasp at my adorable daughter.
Sweet Pea gives Jacob back to me as Annabelle crawls on his lap to hug him. "Daddy can you stay and watch Disney movies with me and Jacob" Annabelle asks her father.
"If it is okay with your mommy" he smiles at me with glittering eyes. My heart flutters the way it used to four years ago. "Yeah" I say breathless.
"Yay a whole day with daddy" Annabelle smiles. We all get comfortable on the couch, Jacob on my lap and Annabelle on his, my head on his shoulder.
It felt like we were a real family, finally.
••• The end, very bittersweet for me. Thank you for all of the love and support:)
