Charlie, Joey and Ruby stood in the kitchen looking into the front room. There was boxes everywhere, stacked on top of each other, stacked side by side, there was barely an inch of carpet visible and no route through the room.
"What the hell did you two buy?" Ruby asked in awe.
"Supplies" Joey giggled as she wondered how on earth they were going to open all these boxes and where they would put everything.
"There is a present somewhere in there for you too, if you want to go and find it be our guest" Charlie laughed.
"Ok we need to make a start otherwise we will still be here next week" Ruby laughed, she couldn't believe how much they had bought, she came across the first box and opened it, giggling when she pulled out a milk pump "well I hope this isn't my present" Charlie slapped her playfully as she rolled her eyes,
"No that's so you can feed the babies while you're babysitting and we are out painting the beach red!" Charlie smiled as she began to open another box, pulling out various items and laying them on the floor.
"This is going to take hours, maybe we should call for back up" Joey laughed as Charlie realised she had boxed herself in and fought to escape.
"I think that's a great idea, get Aden round" Ruby smiled, glad of an excuse to see her boyfriend again before tonight.
"Rubes, you know how Aden sleeps here every night now, and he eats here most nights too?" Charlie asked.
"Yeah maybe I should tell him this is a girly house and he's not welcome as often" Ruby giggled nervously hoping her sister wasn't fed up of him already.
"Actually I was going to say that, well when you're ready, we don't mind if Aden moves in. I mean he practically lives here anyway and a man is always handy to have around the house to do men things like… fix cars and… open jars" Charlie giggled as she hesitated with useful things that a man could do but proud that she had come up with at least two examples.
"You really don't mind?" Ruby asked shocked, she had thought about it but decided against the idea, they had moved into this house to gain some space and three additions to the house hold would make it crowded again.
"Rubes this place is huge, there is more than enough room for him, it's only a suggestion the decision is yours, I just wanted you to know that when your ready, he is welcome here" Charlie smiled at her younger sister.
"I think I will talk to him tonight and ask him" Ruby said thoughtfully.
"Ask me what?" Aden grinned as he bent down to kiss Ruby, his gaze fell upon all the boxes and he giggled. "Whoa someone went a bit mad with the shopping" He smirked at Charlie who laughed at him, missing the look of horror on his girlfriends face, she panicked at how long he had been stood there and how much of the conversation he had overheard.
"Its all essentials" she defended as she grabbed another box and began to empty it carelessly onto the carpet.
Aden turned his attention back to his girlfriend "What did you need to ask me Rubes?"
"Erm, can we go outside for a minute?" Ruby blushed not wanting Aden to decline her offer in front of her family.
"Sure" he grabbed her hand and helped her climb over the boxes stacked up around her.
"So, what's going on?" He asked calmly but felt rising inside himself when he saw the nervousness in Ruby's eyes.
"I was wondering… well we were all wondering… ok well I was thinking… how great it would be… for you to live here… with me… with us and well I kind of dismissed the idea thinking Charlie would never go for it, but she just suggested it herself and well now I'm thinking, if I thought it and the identical twins thought it, maybe you would consider it?" Ruby heaved for air; she wanted to get it all out in the air before she chickened out and as a result managed to speak a mile a minute.
"You really want me to move in? Wow" Aden smiled "I don't know what to say, you've caught me off guard"
"I'm sorry, forget I said anything, just ignore me" Ruby sighed as she began to walk towards the house a little heart broken, she quietly sniffed back the tears that had began to form in the corners of her eyes willing herself not to break down in front of everyone, especially Aden.
"iv thought about it but I always imagined us buying a place together after you had finished your studies, but living with you three, I mean I love being in your home, to be honest it feels like home to me anyway" Aden smiled at Ruby's frozen back.
"You sure it's ok with Charlz and Jo?" he asked warily.
"Yeah, its fine, if you don't want to its ok, you don't have to move in to please me, I wouldn't want to pressure you into anything you didn't want" Ruby sighed not daring to look at Aden. She felt his arms wrap around her waist and his soft lips tenderly kissing her neck.
"I want to live with you Rubes, I want to spend my life with you, please can I move in?" He asked softly as a smile spread across his face.
"I dunno" Ruby grinned cheekily as she turned in his arms and met his lips.
"Oh come on please, I really want to live here, I want to make a home with you" He begged as he kissed her lips again.
"Ok I guess so, but no leaving dirty boxers on the floor!" Ruby giggled as she tightened her grasp around his neck.
"It was once and I couldn't find them because someone very cute that I know had thrown them there" Aden giggled as he took Ruby's hands in his own and smiled lovingly at her.
"You're sure?" he asked carefully.
"Will you just go and get your stuff already!" Ruby laughed as they grinned at each other.
"Yes boss" he smiled as he ran and jumped the fence at the bottom of the garden. Ruby couldn't contain her smile as she watched Aden run along the beach as speeds only Olympic competitors should use.
"Well? Where's Aden?" Joey asked from a cardboard fort when Ruby entered the room, she couldn't help but giggle at the two fully grown women hidden between a castle like cardboard tower.
"He is probably packing right now, you just missed his mile sprint after he said yes" Ruby giggled. "He is so cute" she sighed happily.
"Aww look at loved up Rubes!" Joey giggled and Charlie joined in.
"Shut up you two" She poked her tongue out as she began to open another box.
"Can I hear wedding bells?" Charlie grinned and ducked as a pack of baby grows flew towards her.
"No you can not; we have only been together five months!" She giggled, she had to admit she had thought about it but she was no where near ready for that commitment, sure she loved Aden but they were both so young, and there was plenty of time for all of that. She glared as she heard Charlie humming the wedding march tune with a goofy grin on her face.
"Charlie and I had only been together six months when she tied the ball and chain around my leg" Joey laughed as Charlie swatted her.
"Excuse me? You didn't have to marry me" Charlie pouted and received a loving kiss.
"I wouldn't have married anyone else, you're the only one for me Buckton" Joey grinned.
"Aww the hormones are getting to her again, watch out Rubes" Charlie smiled as she received another kiss.
Whilst Charlie had suffered from terrible morning sickness, Joey had managed with only one or two nauseous patches, but she had defiantly suffered with hormone swings. There had been a few occasions where in the heat of a hormone surge Joey had announced she wanted a divorce and within mere minutes was sobbing because she thought Charlie didn't love her anymore.
"You know I don't mean what I say when I'm like that, it's the baby, its making me daft, turning me into some sort of monster" Joey grinned lovingly at her wife.
Ruby shrieked as she reached the box containing her present "You guys bought me a laptop?" she asked daring not to believe it.
"Well it's to help with your studies, I don't want your work suffering because Joey likes to surf for porn" Charlie giggled at Joey's not so subtle blush and mock shock.
"I do not, that was you" Joey slapped her for trying to blame her.
"Hey I was researching for a case" she defended lamely.
"I don't even want to know, but thanks you guys" Ruby shrieked, happily erasing the last few moments from her memory for ever.
