… … … … …

The trip back to the manor will be a short one, and a quiet one as Claude had finally succumb to jetlag and Tala held him close to him as little Angelito slumbered in the child seat next to them, not uttering a sound.

Kai glanced over his shoulder from the front seat and smiled softly. "Today's excitement was too much for Angelito, it seems."

Miguel chuckle softly so not to wake those in the back. "It certainly seems that way."

"So," Kai said softly as he turned his eyes to his love who was behind the wheel of their 4WD. He lifted his hand up to gently curl a piece of blond hair behind Miguel's ear. "what do you have in mind for this afternoon?"

"Well," he hummed softly in thought as he took Kai's hand in his and kisses it. "We'll just see where the day takes us, alright?"

Kai nodded. "Sounds good."

Moments later they turn into the long stone driveway of the manor and although reluctant, they awoke the sleeping occupants in the back. Tala was instantly awake, but it took a little coaxing to wake Claude up.

Kai smiled down at Angelito then hum softly as the little stirred, but did not awaken. He held him against his chest and carried him inside as Miguel opened the front door. He quickly, but carefully made his way through the large house. He made a bee-line for Angelito's room, to place the slumbering child in his cot so he can get a more restful sleep.

While Kai was distracted with Angelito, Miguel shared a glance with Tala who nodded and then when Claude who smiled in reply.

"Go," Claude whispered. "We'll distract him if he comes out."

Miguel nodded and ventured inside with Tala and Claude behind him. He veered off towards the master bedroom as the other two lovers went in search of Kai. The slender teen had been curious all day and Tala was pretty sure that if Kai doesn't find out soon, he'll burst.

Tala smirked to himself. He knows what Miguel is up to and he can only imagine the look on Kai's face when he finally finds out.

"Are you two sure it's alright about this afternoon?" Kai asked as he gently pushed aside the stray strand of blond hair from Angelito's brow.

"Of course we are," Claude replied. "You two deserve to have some time to yourselves once in a while. Go on," he urged. "have some fun."

"Thank you," Kai said softly as he hugged the equally slender teen. "I don't know when we'll be back so don't wait up."

Tala snorted. "We'll be lucky if Claude here sees the sunset."

Claude turned to his lover and pouted with his hands on his hips. "That's a lot coming from someone who slept for three days after spending 12 hours on a plane to America, remember?"

"I did not," Tala bristle.

"You fell asleep at the coffee table."

"And you left me there!"

"What was I suppose to do?" Claude asked. "Carry you? You must weigh a tonne."

"Feh," Tala pouted and folded his arms across his chest.

Claude shook his head and turned his attention to Kai once again, who held nothing but amusement in his eyes. "We'll be ok," he said again and Kai nodded.

The walk through the house to the front door took a little longer than expected as Kai was looking for his other half. And he was quite surprise to find him already outside. He rose an eyebrow when he saw that Miguel was fiddling with something in the back of the 4WD drive and occasionally he would pat his pocket, seemingly reassuring himself that something was still there. Miguel looked up as Kai stepped out onto the drive near the passenger's side of the car.

"Ready to go?" Miguel ask as he closed the back.

Kai nodded. He wanted to question what Miguel was doing, but bit his tongue. Miguel told him that he'll find out what he's up too soon. And he hopes it's very soon. He loves Miguel with all his heart and trusts him with his life, but his curiosity was really starting to get to him.

Miguel smiled softly and pull Kai into his arms. They shared a few feather light kisses before the parted and jumped into the 4WD. The rest of the day was spent in pretty much the same way. Never wandering too far from each other's touch. They would either hold each other's hand, or grab onto the fabric of their clothing if the other's hand was preoccupied with other mundane things like forking out money and such.

They went to see a movie, but don't remember a moment of it as they were too busy pashing in the back row to pay attention. And it can also be said that a lot of other movie goers didn't see the movie either. They had their eyes on something a lot more interesting. After leaving the cinema, much to the disappointment to a lot of Australian teenage girls, they decided to walk along the many pristine beaches, talking about nothing and everything at the same time.

Kai find himself having such a great time that he totally forgot that Miguel had a surprise for him. It felt absolutely wonderful spending the entire day with Miguel and Miguel alone. Not having a care nor concern. He laughed out loud when Miguel suddenly swept him up into his arms and kissed his lips. Being here, with Miguel, like this made him feel like nothing else in this world matters. He had no worries, no concerns. Everything seemed prefect.

Being in love with such an amazing man and lover, with a wonderful and happy baby boy, why won't it be?

They walked along the beach that were slowly becoming deserted and it was then that they noticed that the sun was slowly starting to set. They stopped walking and stood in each other's arms.

"Did you have fun today?" Miguel asked.

"Uh huh," Kai hummed as he snuggled deeper into Miguel's arms. He looked up into those blue eyes and smiled. "Is this what you were planning?" Miguel said nothing and shook his head. Kai blinked. "What else do you have planned?"

Miguel smiled a playful lopsided grin. "Ok," he said after a few moments. "I think you've waited long enough."

"Finally!" Kai blurted out. "I thought I was going to go insane."

Miguel laughed his deep, intoxicating laugh, gathered Kai into his embrace and held him tight against him as they watched the sun slowly set, sinking into the sapphire blue waters of the ocean before them, the colors of red, pink, purple and orange littering the sky. He gently kissed Kai's forehead, his lips linger ever so slightly.

"You know," Miguel hummed thoughtfully as he leaned back to properly look at Kai, his gaze warm and loving. "growing up I never imagined that I would someday be a father to a wonderful baby boy and be the lover of the hottest thing since fire," he chuckled softly as a small blush flittered over Kai's tattooed cheeks. "In fact I never thought I would live to make it to my late teens, but now look at me. I'm 21 years old with a child and a lover to share my life with. I never thought I'd be so lucky."

Kai's eyes shimmered softly as he swallowed thickly as an attempt to stop the tears of joy from leaving his eyes. "We're both lucky," he whispered softly.

"You've given me so much, a reason to live, to smile again, to love, to look forward to the future. I love you so much, and I tell you constantly, and yet, it seems those words alone aren't enough to describe how much love I hold for you," Miguel gently rest his forehead against Kai.

"Miguel…" Kai whispered on the verge of crying. He had never heard anything so beautiful…

"When we first met, we hardly knew each other, but, with one small glance, one short sentence, he were brought together. We connected with each other almost instantly."

Kai lifted his arms and looped them around Miguel's neck. "It was like we were destined to meet."

"I know we're joined together in mind, body, spirit and heart, but there is one more thing that can bind us together," Miguel whispered and pressed another kiss to Kai's brow.

Confusion flittered across Kai's feathers, but soon, it was replaced by surprise. He pulled back slightly to look Miguel straight in the eyes, his gaze hopeful and questioning. Miguel chuckled. He placed his hand into his pocket and pulled out a moment later. He opened his hand and there in the palm of his hand sat a specially crafted silver engagement ring with a small blue diamond.

The ring was specially made for Kai, there was no other like it. Miguel had made sure of that. He had looked for engagement rings but nearly all had large precious stones in them, and he knows that Kai isn't into big diamond rings or gaudy jewelry. He likes small tokens of sentimental value.

Kai hiccupped as the gazed at the ring. He suddenly leaned forward and caught Miguel's lips in a passionate kiss, pouring all his love into this loving gesture. "Yes," he said after he pulled back. "Of course."

Miguel smiled and slipped the ring onto Kai's slender finger and pulled him into another kiss, one of which Kai was more than happy to return. They parted sooner than they would have liked, but both knew that there will be plenty more after tonight. Miguel lifted his hand to gently wipe away the small tears that had fallen from Kai's extraordinary eyes.

"Sorry," Kai said as he wiped some of the tears away himself. "It's just that, I'm so happy," he sighed and leaned against Miguel's chest again. "You did all of this for me? You didn't-"

"Yes I did," Miguel said. "After everything you've done for me, I wanted to do something for you," he cupped Kai's face in his hands and gently kissed his lips. "And I have a few more surprises for you."

"I can't wait."

… … … … …

Gwad, I'm such a sap. Miguel too. Don't you think so, Kai? (Sees that Kai is too busy snuggling up with Miguel to respond) I guess not. Oh well, whatever keeps them happy.

Tala: Why do I get the feeling that you were one of those girls in the cinema?

(sweatdrops) No clue. Besides, I don't live in Queensland.

Tala: (suspicious) Uh huh.

Please review. I promise more fluff if you do.
