46.3 Alexander

"She just woke," he murmured walking towards me and I smiled ruffling his hair which earned me a glare in return but I make grinned and he rolled his eyes with a smile

"Thanks, have you eaten yet?" I asked and he shook his head, "then why are you waiting for? Go ahead and grab something" I nodded towards the tent and he bit his lip before nodding and walking towards the tent, "let's all eat"

Soon enough the evening went from tense to relaxed and everyone sat around laughing and joking with each other whorl Kat, Hayden, Savannah and I sat together on the deck while the other sat scattered around.

"Are you enjoying the night?" I asked Hayden who nodded

"As much as I can with my partners constantly looking over here," he mumbled and I can tell he just wanted to go and hide in his room to get away from his nagging parents

"Just ignore them like you've been doing the whole time," Kat said as she fed Savannah her bottle, and he just nodded focusing on the book he was reading.

"I have something for you," Kat said looking at Hayden who looked from his book with a raised brow making her smile before leaning over and grabbing a small wrapped box and handing it to him, "go on, open it" he set the book on the table and ripped the wrapping off before gasping when he saw a bracelet with little paintbrushes, pallets, and other artsy stuff dangling from it

"Kat, I, wow, thank you sissy" he whispered with a wide smile

"No problem, H, I know you said you didn't want any ring for your birthday but you know me and you know I always end up doing just that," she said and he smiled

"I forgot that today was not only Father's Day but also your birthday," I said and he looked over at me

"You don't have to get me anything"

"I know but I'm still getting you something but the realm have to wait till tomorrow," I said and he huffed

"Thank you, seriously, for everything," he said

"What are siblings for?" Kat asked and Hayden smiled

"To supper you and help you through all the good and the bad"

"Damn right" we were startled by David's voice and saw him walk up the small steps before sitting beside Hayden and also handing him a gift that had the youngest Montgomery sighing.

Soon enough, everyone began to leave the house with Liam and Addison the only ones left behind.

"Hayden" Liam said gaining his attention, "a word please"

"Can't it wait until tomorrow?" He asked, "I have homework I need to get back to"

"That can wait until tomorrow" Liam replied

"Dad, don't start," Kat said stepping in, "go on, Hayden"

"Don't you dare move, Hayden" Liam warned

"You can speak with him tomorrow, Liam" I stated also stepping in holding a sleeping soon to be one year old, "he needs to get back to his homework"

"He's been ignoring his mother and I the entire night and we want to talk with him now," he said

"And we're telling you that you can speak with him tomorrow when you're all well-rested" I commented, and I could see him debating in his head and when he was about to say something in reply, his wife walked over telling him that Kat and I are right about getting some sleep and that they could return tomorrow to speak with Hayden who had already gone to his room.

"Alright" Liam finally relented which had Kat and I sighing in relief at not having to argue with him all night. We bid him and Addison a goodnight before I locked the door behind them once I watched Liam drive away and put on the alarm before joining Kat and Savannah at the stairs.

"Come on, let's go get some sleep because I have a feeling we'll be waking up early tomorrow" I murmured and she nodded and so we made our way upstairs and into Savannah's nursery and laid her down on her crib before walking down the hall to check on Hayden who had his headphones on and was typing away on his computer with his school books surrounding him.

"Don't stay up too late" I said when he looked over to us and he nodded, "get some sleep"

"I will, night"

"Goodnight"

Once in our room, I froze seeing a gift in the middle of the bed with blue balloons attached to the handles. When the hell did that happen? When did she even ah be time to put it on the bed?

"Babe? What's this?" I asked walking over to the bed and looked up at Kat who was biting her bottom lip

"Open it," she said and I raised a brow but did as told and untied the balloons and looked inside and froze with my eyes wide open.

"Babe" I murmured taking out the white familiar stick, ultrasound, and onesie before looking up at her and she was fiddling with her fingers, "Is this what I think it is?"

She nodded and I felt my eyes sting as I looked at the items in my hands before dropping them on the end and walking over to her but kneeling down in front of her and lifting her shirt up revealing her small bump, how the fuck did I not notice before?

"Hi baby" I whispered to her belly swallowing the lump in my throat, "I can't wait to meet you" I felt Kat's fingers run through my hair and looked up, "another baby"

"Another baby" she replied with a smile as tears rolled down her cheeks. I stood back up and cupped her cheeks before pressing a kiss to her lips as her hands held me by the waist,

"Thank you" I whispered, "thank you for choosing me to go through this wild ride with. For loving me and for everything"

"Thank you for always choosing me, us" she murmured and I smiled resting my forehead against hers as I laid my hands on her belly

"I will always choose you, us, and them" and by them, I meant by choosing Hayden, Savannah, and this new little baby that will fill our lives with infinite love and happiness.

"I love you, both of you"

"And we love you too"
