A/N: Thank you for the reviews of the last chapter. They are greatly appreciated.
Allie was all smiles as Wade drove them home after their romantic and passionate night in NYC. "I love you so much, baby." she said as she held Wade's hand in one hand while her other hand rubbed his much larger one.
"I love you too. I can't wait to make you my wife." Wade lifted her hand to his lips and gently kissed it.
Allie sighed happily and looked out the window watching the scenery go by. When they finally got to her parents house, they got out of the car and went inside.
"Dad? Stephanie?" she called out as Wade closed the door behind them.
"We're in here." Paul yelled from the living room.
"We have something to tell you guys." Allie said as they walk in the living room.
"What?" Stephanie asked.
Allie and Wade smile at each other "Wade asked me to marry him." she showed them the ring. "We're getting married."
Stephanie yelled and jumped up to hug Allie as Paul got a big smile on his face and hugged his daughter "Congratulations baby girl." before looking at Wade and sticking his hand out "Take care of my little girl."
"Both of your girls are in good hands." Wade said as he wrapped his arm around Allie's waist.
The four little girls ran in the living room when they heard all the commotion. "Mama! Daddy!" Maddie said as she ran up to her parents.
Allie smiled and bent down to pick her daughter up "Hey baby girl. Are you ready to go home?" she smiled when the little girl nodded. "Ok. Get your stuff and we'll go home." she set the little girl on her feet and watched her run off.
Later on towards the late afternoon, Wade and Allie are in the living room playing with Maddie. "Mama? We go outside?"
"In a minute baby. We have to talk to you." Allie said as she looked at Wade and saw the sad look in his eyes. Allie picked up Maddie and they all went to the couch. "Next week a man is going to come here. That man is coming here to see you. He is your daddy."
Maddie got a confused look on her face. Her 3 year old mind didn't quite understand. She looked at Wade and pointed at him "That daddy."
Wade started getting tears in his eyes "No, sweetheart. Your daddy hasn't been around because he's been really busy. I took care of you for him." it was breaking his heart to tell the little girl that.
Allie got her phone pulled up a picture of Dean "This is your daddy."
"Daddy?" she looked up at her mother.
"Yes, that's daddy." then Allie pointed at Wade "That's Wade. Can you call him Wade?"
"Wade."
Wade looked at Allie with tears streaming down his face and she mouthed she was sorry to him. "Ok baby. Let's go outside."
Wade and Allie got up and followed Maddie outside. They sat on the back deck and watched Maddie play on his swing set. "That was the hardest thing I ever had to do." Wade said as he watched Maddie slide down one of the slides.
"I know baby." Allie leaned into Wade and wrapped her arms around one of his arms and laid her head on his shoulder. "We'll have our own baby soon."
Wade smiled softly at the thought of a baby of his own "I never thought I would want kids. Maddie changed all of that."
"You're still going to be a big part of her life. And I hate to bring this up, but I talked to my lawyer and he's already drawing up the papers to change Maddie's last name and umm... take your name off her birth certificate."
"I'm not going to fight it. She deserves to know her father and I don't need to hold her back from that in any way. Besides, It won't matter when we start having kids."
"Thank you." Allie said before leaning up and kissing Wade on the cheek. "I think we should get started on making that baby tonight." she whispered in his ear.
Wade laughed deep in his throat "I won't say no to that."
A couple of weeks has passed since Wade and Allie told Maddie about her real dad and she has been good about not calling Wade daddy. Allie made sure to show Maddie picture of Dean every day so she would know who he was when he came to visit.
Allie was in their bathroom getting ready for the day when Wade came in "I'm sorry love, but I have to go to England. There is a problem with my work visa I have to straighten out."
"When do you have to go?" she asked as she turned to look at her fiancé
Wade sighed and ran his hand over his face "As soon as possible."
"What's wrong with your visa?"
"It's set to expire soon, so I put in an application to get it renewed and they informed me that I have to be there in person for the proceedings. I don't know how long it will take."
Allie looked like she was about to cry "I'm gonna miss you so much baby." she walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him.
"I'm going to miss you too. But I'll call every day and we can face time." he let go of her "I better go book my flight." he bent down and pecked her lips before walking out of the bathroom.
A couple of hours later, Wade is packing his bags for his trip to England. Allie is sitting on their bed watching him as she tried not to cry. "Hopefully you won't be gone too long."
"I hope so too. But look at it this way, you'll have a lot of time to yourself to start planning our wedding."
Allie smiled at that "That's true. But I'm gonna wait on a lot of it for when you get back. I want you to be involved in the planning too."
"And I will be involved. Just start planning what you don't need my input on and we'll do the rest together later."
Allie nodded as Wade closed his suitcase. "I guess I'm ready to go. I love you so much. I'll be back before you know it." he walked over to her and gave her a hot passionate kiss.
"The sooner you leave, the sooner you can return to me and to our bed." Allie said with a smile. "I love you. Have a safe flight." she said as they walked to the door.
"I'll see you later."
A couple hours later there is a knock at the door. Allie got up and went to the door and opened it "Hey. I'm glad you could make it."
