For several weeks after Aiden had been put on trial for the murder of Chase's mother as well as the other things that he had done since Chase had been forced to go everywhere with him it had seemed that things were only getting crazier for Bo and Hope as well as certain members of their family. Nobody could quite figure out exactly why Aiden was still attempting to claim that he was completely innocent and that it was in fact everybody else that was to blame for everything that had been taking place during the past year when he was attempting to make sure that everything that he had planned would be taking place whether he had been in jail or not. In many ways it was becoming completely obvious that Aiden was attempting to blame Chase for everything that had been happening long before he had been arrested and tried for the crimes that he had honestly committed. Chase had told Bo and Hope about everything that he had been dealing with from the moment that he had witnessed the murder of his mother. Bo and Hope knew that there had been a few things happening that just might allow Aiden to get the things that he had wanted, but at the same time they had known that there had been enough evidence against Aiden to make sure that he would never again be able to get custody of Chase again and that would eventually mean that Chase would no longer have to become a part of Aiden's scams ever again. Bo had known that this was definitely the one thing that Chase had wanted and no matter what he would have to do throughout that entire time he was determined to help Chase get the things that he was wanting.

When Aiden had eventually learned that he was going to be in jail for a very long time he had started to realize that this was the last chance that he would have to prove that he was honestly the father that Chase had needed throughout the entire time that he had been working on these scams and using Chase to do the things that he had felt he could not do unless he had been able to claim Chase as his son. Now that a judge had sentenced him to life in prison everything in Aiden's life as well as Chase's was going to be changing and there was absolutely nothing that Aiden would be able to do throughout the entire time that he would be locked up in the local prison. Chase would eventually find out about these things when he had gone with Ciara to visit with her grandmother during a time that Bo and Hope had been planning on spending some time alone at the cabin knowing that Chase and Ciara would be just fine at Caroline's for that entire weekend. Chase had known that Bo and Hope had been attempting to get time alone since Aiden's trial and things had not exactly been easy for them, especially when it came to everything that had been happening since Chase had told the truth about the things that Aiden had been making him do for quite some time. Now Chase was determined to make sure that Bo and Hope had gotten the time that they had needed in order to figure out if their relationship was able to continue in the way that they had been wanting it to for the longest time. Hope had known that there had been members of her own family that had been wondering just why she had been acting the way that she had been when it came to deciding between Bo and Aiden, but the truth was that during that time she had not been entirely sure what her feelings toward each of these men had been until after Aiden had ended up being arrested for the various crimes that he had committed and especially for the different lies that he had told her when they had been dating. Hope had known right from the start that Bo had been her soulmate and that no matter what anybody else had ever said Bo was definitely the one person that she was meant to be with whether she had seen it when Bo had first returned to Salem or not.

On the day that Bo and Hope were preparing to go to the cabin where they would be spending some time together it had seemed that everything was finally returning to normal and Hope had finally gotten the opportunity to just calm down and relax after the terrible things that she had gone through. The fact that Caroline had been willing to take care of both Chase and Ciara throughout the weekend when Bo and Hope were finally getting some much needed time off and it was definitely giving Hope the chance to show Bo exactly how she felt about him despite the things that so many other people had been saying for quite some time. It had been quite obvious that Bo had heard some of the things that people had been saying but the truth was that he was not exactly willing to believe the things that he had been hearing until Hope had eventually told him that these things had been true. All that Bo knew for certain was that he had never stopped loving Hope and no matter what had been happening nothing would ever change the way that he had felt about her from the very moment that they had met. The drive to the cabin had seemed to be rather nerveracking for Hope since she had not been able to have a calming day off for quite some time. Hope knew that normally whenever she would have the time off from work she would be spending the time with Ciara doing something that her daughter had been wanting to do for quite some time. Ciara would normally have loved the time with her mother, but she also knew that since everything had happened with Aiden things had been rather difficult for her parents to have any kind of time alone together. Ciara had been the one that had mentioned to her parents that they should take the time to go to the cabin and spend the time together that they had honestly wanted since the day that Bo had returned to them during the Christmas holidays. At first Bo and Hope had refused to go to the cabin insisting that they were needed to take care of her and Chase, but Ciara had insisted that they could stay with Caroline and that her parents needed to have the time alone just the way that they had done when they had been at the cabin for Christmas. Ciara had known that Caroline would gladly take her and Chase for that weekend even if there had been other things that she had been planning throughout that entire weekend. At times it had seemed that whenever Ciara had wanted something to happen all she would have to do was talk to her grandmother and Caroline would eventually do whatever she possibly could to help her granddaughter get these things.

Throughout the entire time that Ciara had been talking to Caroline about that weekend it had seemed that Chase had been considering a number of things that had included asking Bo and Hope if there was any possible way that they would be willing to adopt him so that he would never again have to worry about what would happen to him if Aiden had ever gotten out of jail. Chase had thought that Aiden would eventually make an attempt to get his son back the minute that he had gotten out of jail. The problem was that Aiden was not getting out of jail any time soon and that Chase was completely safe. It wouldn't be until after they had been staying with Caroline that weekend that Chase would start to realize that Bo and Hope would never permit anything bad to happen to him no matter what he had been doing throughout that entire time. Caroline had found himself looking forward to spending time with Ciara and Chase, especially since it was obvious just what Ciara had been attempting to do throughout that entire time. For several weeks all Ciara had seemed to be able to talk about was the possibility that her parents would be getting back together but even then there had been some question as to whether this was something that was actually going to be happening since things had honestly been happening quite slowly. Caroline had known that Hope had always been Bo's soulmate for the longest time which had been part of the reason that things had been happening the way that they had been between them once the truth had been coming out. Ciara had known that her grandmother would do whatever she possibly could in order to help her granddaughter give her parents that romantic weekend getaway that they had honestly deserved right from the moment that Aiden's trial had been over. With all of the stress that Bo and Hope had been under during the time that Bo had been working on this particular case this weekend away was something that they had needed throughout the entire time that these things had been taking place.
