AN: Once again, thank you all for being so patient, understanding, positive, and encouraging. There are times that I get frustrated with having no ideas and energy after classes to do what I love so much, which is writing, but you guys make it worth it. So after this chapter, something pretty major is going to happen (thanks to one of my most amazing followers).

It's nothing you prepare for, it's nothing that you plan. But love when this world lets you. Love while you can.

Night after night I sing these words and they continue to ring truer and truer each time I wake up next to the man I love. It's been a few weeks since I taped the interview of me spilling the beans about James and I and it's airing today, Walker's coming home today, Taye's going to be in the city today, I'm probably going to lose my mind today.

"It's on." James said, peeking his head into the bedroom.

"I'll be there in a second."

James went back to the living room as Idina stood up from the bed and let out a nervous sigh. She didn't know whether she should keep her phone near her seeing as she was petrified of getting reactions from people who didn't know about their relationship. She finally got up and went into the living room. She was welcomed by James sitting on the couch and her face on the TV screen.

"Did I miss it? I hope I missed it." she said as she sat Indian style next to James.

James laughed as he placed his hand on her knee and gave it a little squeeze.

"You didn't miss it. And I wish you would stop being so nervous. Who cares what people say?"

Idina only sighed in response, but the fact that James wanted her to stop worrying really helped her. She grabbed his hand and let it rest in hers. They both watched, Idina getting more and more nervous because she knew it was coming up. When it did, they looked at one another and enjoyed a few minutes of silence before Idina's phone started chiming numerous times.

There were texts, a couple of calls, and countless Twitter notifications from young girls talking about "feels". James chose to leave his cellphone in the bedroom, which bothered Idina to no end.

"How can you be so calm?" she finally asked, tossing her phone onto the couch and laying her head on James' shoulder.

"I honestly don't care what people say. I love you and I want to be with you for the rest of my life." James said and suddenly Idina's eyes were looking straight into his when he looked down. "Nothing anyone says could ever change the way I feel about so I don't care what they say."

Idina could do nothing but smile. She was in the arms of the most amazing man in the world and there would be people who didn't like, there would be people who thought they weren't right for each other, there would be people doubting them, but when she looked at him, none of those people mattered. Not a single one. It was just him and her and all that mattered is that they were in this together.

Once James had calmed Idina down, she finally looked at her texts and notifications and saw that her phone was full of love. She got onto Twitter only to find out that there were people rooting for them before they even got together. They favorited some of their favorite tweets from their followers and laughed at the joking texts from their castmates.

As the day progressed, Idina started feeling better and better and she felt like a huge weight was lifted off of her chest. She went to her apartment and cleared her mind just in time because the most important person in her life was about to be with her and he deserved every ounce of her undivided attention.

She couldn't have scooped Walker up into her any faster when she opened the door and saw his smiling face. To her surprise, she felt better than usual after people knew about her relationship with James. Taye didn't see the interview, but he did tell her that people keep asking him how he feels on social networks.

Taye got up, taking a break from Walker and his toy dinosaurs.

"The divorce judgment's been signed and dated. So…it's final." Idina said and of course, she didn't sound happy because it wasn't a happy situation.

"Yeah, I know. I guess you two chose a good time to make that announcement today."

"That wasn't planned. I did that interview weeks ago, Taye, and I didn't know even know it was final until I came home this morning."

Taye only looked at her. She didn't want things to be awkward, but surely he knew that she stayed with James and James stayed with her sometimes. Walker had even talked with the two of them while they were at James'. This was far from an ideal situation, but it's the cards they were dealt and they were dealing with it the best they could.

"How are things going with you two anyway?" Taye asked.

"Really good." Idina said, trying not to seem arrogant, but she couldn't hold back her smile.

It was obvious from the glow in her eyes and the smile on her face that things really were going good and she was happy. Although it was no longer Taye making her happy, it pleased him to see her that way. He knew she deserved all the happiness in the world and if anything could take away any hurt he had ever caused her, he would support it 100%.

"Cara and the boys flew in a couple of weeks ago and we all went and had dinner with my parents. They love James." Idina stopped before she went any further and Taye could feel the tension.

"You don't have to keep how happy you are to yourself." he said, laughing to show her that he was okay. "If your family loves him, that's great."

Idina looked down to the floor and caught a visibly tired Walker yawning and rubbing his eye.

"Someone has had a busy morning and needs a nap." Idina said, getting up from her seat on the couch.

"I don't need a nap." Walker said as he laid down on the floor.

"Come on. Let's get you into a bed and see how much you don't need a nap."

As soon as Idina picked Walker up, he rested his head on her shoulder and muttered something about being wide awake as he strained to keep his eyes open. She turned around when she heard a knock at the door.

"That's probably James." she said as she started walking towards the door.

"I'll get it. You try to get Walker to sleep." Taye offered, getting up out of his seat as Idina made her way to Walker's bedroom.

Once he opened the door, he and James greeted each other, both not wanting to make things uncomfortable, but once they started talking things were fine.

"Knowing Walker, Idina probably won't be able to leave the room until he falls asleep." Taye said, laughing.

James laughed, but his laugh got all tangled in nervousness before he spoke. Once he did speak, it was in a really hushed voice.

"How long are you going to be in the city?" he asked, moving closer to Taye.

Taye looked around, confused as to why James was being so secretive. "Uh, about a week."

"I need your help with something and I'm really hoping you're open to helping me."

"Okay…" Taye said, still confused about what James was talking about.

"This weekend, I'm going to—" James started, but stopped when Idina walked back into the living room.

"Hi." she said as James stood up. "What are you two talking about?"

"Nothing." Taye answered, standing up from his seat. "I was just about to leave. James, get my number from Dee so we can talk about something."

"Talk about what?" Idina asked.

"Have a good day, Idina." Taye said, opening the door and laughing before walking out.

Idina laughed. "What does he have to talk to you about?"

"Have a good day, Idina." James repeated after Taye, knowing he couldn't lie to her.

"Don't you try that." Idina said before she gave James a kiss.
