DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ICARLY AND I NEVER WILL

I sat down on the bed, looking at the woman in front of me who just got out of the shower and was now combing her hair. She was wearing her night gown and I was, like always, mesmerized by her beauty.

After all these years, I still couldn't believe that this beautiful… no, perfect creature was mine, only mine. God! What did I do to deserve such gift? I wouldn't have it any other way.

I was deep in my thoughts that I didn't even realize she was grinning at me. Was I drooling again? Yeah, it was possible. Who wouldn't?

I blinked my eyes twice and stood up, carefully sliding my hands around her waist to pull her closer to me. I figured she dropped the comb because of the sound it made when it hit the floor and started to feel her hands on their way up around my neck. I leaned forward and let our foreheads touch as she closed her eyes.

I smiled and whispered. "You still haven't changed much, darling."

"Mmm?" she mumbled while slowly opening her eyes.

"You're still the Carly Shay I knew when we were six." I giggled, poking her nose with my index finger before sliding them down to her waist again. "Let's see. It's been twenty years since I first saw you, 10 since you gave me your yes, and five years since I agreed to marry you!" I continued with a huge grin.

She pulled herself away from me which was kind of expected and laughed at my silly joke. She hit me playfully in the arm and yelled "I did not ask you to marry me!!"

Okay, I kind of didn't expect the yelling. "Shhh. You're gonna wake up Sofie!" I shushed her.

"Well, it isn't my fault, Fredward!" she cried in a much quieter tone now. Wait… Did she just call me Fredward? Oh no, she didn't.

I walked towards her quickly grabbed her in the waist glad that she didn't struggle to free herself. I knew she loved this too.

"Let's keep you quiet, shall we?" I grinned at her. She was about to protest so I took that opportunity to claim her lips with mine. Oh, how I loved kissing her but I loved it more when she would kiss me back.

I scooped her up and carried her to bed, ready to take this escapade into another level without breaking the kiss. Her head hit the pillow slowly and I was on top of her. I used my elbows though to support myself since I wouldn't want to burden her with my own weight.

I broke the kiss and stared at her longingly. I brushed away some strands of her hair covering her angelic face and stroked her cheek with my thumb. God! She looked so beautiful!

"I love you!" I breathed and gave her a quick peck on the lips. She smiled her beautiful smile before her eyes grew wide.

She quickly sat up straight throwing me on the other side of the bed, completely off-balanced. I looked at her confusingly and saw that she was looking at the door and blushing. Wait… blushing?

I looked at what she was staring at and understood the whole situation completely. There stood our four year old daughter, rubbing her eyes with her right hand, and holding her brown teddy in her left.

"Mommy? Daddy?" she said in her tiny, sweet voice.

I immediately stood up towards her while Carly was still frozen, sitting on the bed. I think she still couldn't believe our daughter had seen us in that position but still, I don't have any regrets. I just have to deal with Sofie's questions later.

I knelt down in front of her and ran my hand through her hair. Sofie was brunette too and I guess we all know where she got it from. Actually, she looked a lot like her mom.

"Hey baby. Come on. Let's get you back to sleep." She put her arms around my neck eagerly letting me carry her. Carly was now standing behind me.

"Can mommy come too?" Sofie mumbled. She loved it when Carly and I tucked her in. If there was any way both of us could do it, then we would.

"Of course, sweetie." Carly was the one who answered. She started walking with us towards the other bedroom.

I found her hand and held it while my other hand carried Sofie. It felt so good to hold two of the most important persons in your life.

"Daddy…" Sofie said as we walked. "Why were you on top of Mommy?" she added innocently.

Okay, that caught me off guard. I looked at Carly, who was also looking at me, and mouthed "Help…" making sure Sofie wouldn't see.

Carly just smiled at me and stuck out her tongue, giving me a "you're on your own" look.

I groaned and I could tell Carly was grinning. I knew she wasn't going to help me so I thought of something to say. Finally, we reached Sofie's bedroom.

I put her slowly to bed and tucked her in hoping she would forget that I didn't answer her question yet.

"Mom…" she now turned to Carly who was now sitting on her bed too. I pulled the chair from the side of the room and brought it near her bed knowing that this was gonna be a long night.

"Sofie… well… you see…" Carly was having a hard time and I knew she still didn't have any idea what to say.

"We were… wrestling. Yeah!" I was the one who came up with the brilliant idea. Well, maybe not so brilliant.

"Wrestling?" Carly raised her eyebrows and smirked. I was about to answer her when we I heard Sofie speak.

"Dad, can you tell me a story before I go to bed?" she requested. I was half-glad because she let go of the first topic but half-sad because Carly and I wouldn't be going back to what we were doing soon.

"Alright. What do you want? Cinderella, Snow White?" I asked her, walking towards her shelf piled with children's books.

"None… I want a new story." She pouted and I heard Carly's giggles.

I went back and sat down on the chair I already pulled, thinking hard on what to tell.

"Okay…" I mumbled before starting the story. Carly looked at me, waiting for the story too.

"There was this boy and this other boy and they got into a fight because of this girl. Then there was kicking and punching… BOOM! BOOM! POW! POW! And then the bad boy lost and the good boy got the girl. They got married, did things which you're not allowed to know about until you're thirty, and then they had a cute daughter who should probably go to sleep now." I throw punches into the air to make the storytelling more dramatic.

I looked at Sofie who had her mouth opened and then I glanced at Carly who now has a "What?!!" look on her face.

I shrugged. "What? That was a good story!" I raised my hands up in the air and before I knew it, a pillow landed on my face.

"Ow! What was that for?" I grabbed the pillow and looked at Carly who was now laughing hard. I knew it was her judging by the force of the throw. She was so going to pay for that.

"That was a bad story, Daddy. Moooooom!" Sofie cried before Carly and I could react.

Carly shook her head, smiling. "Okay. Let mommy tell the story." Carly said. Sofie sat up and put her hands under her chin.

"Once upon a time…." Carly began and I just sat there, waiting for her story too. Yup, this was going to be a long, long night.
