He cringed a little. “I don’t want you cleaning up a

fter us, baby.”

I shrugged. It was no different to cleaning up after Aiden. It’d just be Aiden times four – or three. I had a feeling Jace wasn’t going to let me pick up after him much. “I won’t mind. I think I’ll actually like making sure you’re all taken care of and eating properly.”

“Oh no.” He chuckled. “The mother hen’s going to come out. Matt better watch his sorry ass.”

I groaned a little at that. Matt was the one I was worried about. Out of all of them, he was the one who was going to hit it hardest. I wasn’t worried about myself having to deal with him. I was worried he was going to push himself too far.

Jace sighed and took my face in his hands. “I am so un-fucking-believably happy right now. I love you so much.”

“So, you’re okay with me coming on tour?” I could hear the uncertainty in my voice. A tiny part of me had been worried he wouldn’t want me to come.

“Baby, I’m more than okay with it. You own part of my soul. Without you I don’t even know who I am. I honestly had no idea how I was going to get through the tour without you.” His gaze roamed over my face in awe, then he smiled. “I get to wake up with you in my arms every single day. I’m more than fucking happy.”

I beamed up at him. “Then we’re going on tour, baby.”

The smile he returned me was so full of love, I was sure I was about to end up a melted puddle on the floor. “Yeah, we are.”

“I love you.”

He kissed me, soft and lingering. “I love you too. Forever.”

Kaeli

I came home to raised voices.

My heart immediately went into panic mode, thumping a million miles per minute. Wearily, I stepped into the lounge room. Ken and Aaron were glaring at each other over the coffee table. They both spun on me as soon as I entered.

“Where’s Mom?” I asked.

Kens’ eyes narrowed on me. “She’s gone shopping.”

I exhaled with relief, turning to disappear before I regretted making myself known. Aaron spun back on his father. “I’m not going. Make Kaeli go! I’m sure they’d appreciate her a lot more anyway.”

I froze on the first step and looked back at them. Getting in the middle of their problems was the last thing I wanted to do. Aaron was oozing anger, looking between me and his father. Ken’s gaze turned from plain nasty to malicious.

I’d seen that look a few times before, and the aftermath was never good. I was petrified to the spot. “Do what?” I asked hesitantly.

Ken just continued staring at me, mulling over whether he wanted me to do this ‘thing’ or not. I was just about to ask again, when his lips curled up into a nasty grin. “Yes, I think you might be right, Aaron,” he said. “This could work in our favor.”

“What do you want me to do?” I asked again, this time a little more forceful. He wasn’t looking at me anymore. He’d begun bustling around near the lounge, arranging a bag of some sort.

“You’re going to go pick something up for me,” he said, not bothering to turn around.
