On with the story.

(Cammie's POV)

Macey must have left the kids here. I have to give her credit, she was smarter than she looked. I guess she knew that I would forgive Zach and that Zach's intentions really weren't what I thought they were.

Rose and Riley were both in Rose's room (When my kids played together, they usually played in Rose's room, the dining room or the living room because Riley's room was a mess and my room was off limits). As I held Zach's left hand with my right hand, we could hear giggles coming from the cracked door of Rose's room. I approached cautiously and suspiciously. Whatever they were doing, I knew it wasn't good.

I reached Rose's door and looked back at Zach, eyes wide with 'Are you sure?' He nodded. Zach's attention was not for me anymore because he stared intently at the door of my daughters room.

More giggles floated from the cracked doorway. I heard Rose whisper, "You're doing it too dark….here, let me see it…"

Completely forgetting that Zach was behind me, I opened the door and saw my kids…

Drawing on each other's faces.

Rose had brown all over her face and Riley had brown and black on half his face. Both my kids immediately knew I was there. They glanced up, wide eye, but when they saw it was me, they grinned.

"Momma, look! I'm a bear!" Rose giggled.

"I'm a cheetah!" Riley smiled that goofy smile of his.

Despite the horror of trying to get that stuff off, I smiled.

Rose got up, letting the markers in her lap drop to the floor, and said, "Mommy, who's that?" She was pointed at Zach, who was behind my shoulder.

"This," I took a deep breath. "is your dad."

Rose's mouth dropped and so did Riley's. I know why.

**Flashback**

Me and my two year old kids were at the park. We were going to have a nice picnic but for some reason, they were frowning and looking at the other kids in the park.

Rose, in her little red shirt and jeans with red sandals (summer time), sat on the pink blanket on my left. Riley, in his blue shirt and jeans with blue sandals, sat on my right chewing on a sandwich but staring at the other kids just like his sister.

I studied them for a moment but they were staring intently at the two kids who were playing fetch with their dog and parents.

"Something wrong?" I asked them.

Rose looked back at me after a moment. "Momma, where's daddy?"

For a two year old, she had only completed so many sentences and only mastered so many words. Out of all the sentences she could have said to me then, I didn't know she would say this one to me.

Memory's of Zach came back to me, flooded my mind until he was the only thing occupying it. I blinked and remembered that Riley and Rose were waiting for an answer. Both of them looked at me with green eyes.

I smiled reassuringly. "He'll be back soon. Promise."

That was the first lie I ever told them.

**Flashback end**

Rose smiled the biggest smile I had seen on her face in a while. Riley grinned (no surprise. He seemed to make a habit of that facial expression just like his father a made a habit of his smirk) at Zach.

"Daddy! You're home!" Rose yelled and ran into Zach's arms, followed by Rose.

I smiled with tears in my eyes as Zach scooped up his—our twins and hugged them for the first time. He smiled, not smirked, at them as Rose patted his cheek and Riley swung an arm over his shoulder. Zach looked over at me and smiled wider.

I went to join the family hug.

Good, no?

Some choices. 1.) We could stop the story here. No more. No less. 2.) We could continue this story (And if we do, I need some ideas. :/) 3.) I could write a sequel. Like, Riley and Rose finding out about Gallagher and Blackthorne and then end up going? Or something else?

Review, tell me. Then I'll post an author note announcing the 200th reviewing and what choice got the majority. :D

Review!
