3 weeks. It had been 3 weeks since Matt and Lita had been reunited with their son. They had left Arizona only a few days ago. Everything seemed to be going back to normal. Glenn was in custody set to have a trial at some point. Matt and Lita were just glad to have their son back. The officers had told them if they wanted, they could have the chance to talk to Glenn once more before the trial but none of that mattered. Lucas was back now.
Lucas had been thrilled when he found out his mom and dad had gotten together. His mom had told him all about divorcing Glenn. He had never liked him. He didn't like how he was mean to his mom. He had told the investigators that Glenn wasn't the one to kidnap him. Lita and Matt weren't sure to be glad for that, or upset that they still didn't know who took their son from them.
Lucas was in the living room playing his Nintendo when he saw his mom enter. His dad had gone somewhere for a little bit. Lita smiled as she watched Lucas for a moment then sat down on the couch next to him.
"It's almost bed-time munchkin," said Lita softy and Lucas nodded.
He didn't want to go to bed, but he knew better than to argue with his mom. Why was it parent's always won the arguments? He thought with a smile. He quickly turned his game off and placed his head on Lita's lap. She smoothed back his hair and sighed.
"You ok," she questioned softly and he nodded, giving his mom a reassuring smile. He knew if he didn't, she would worry about him all night.
"Yeah, I'm glad you and dad are back together," he said out of the blue and Lita gave him a small smile.
"I am too sweetie. So, you going to tell me what's really bothering you," she asked again and Lucas rolled his eyes good naturedly. He knew his mom just worried about him. She and his dad seemed to do that a lot lately.
"Mom, I'm fine, really. I'm just glad to be back," said Lucas and Lita sighed. She decided not to push him on the subject.
"Alright. C'mon now, your dad will be home soon to say good-night. Why don't you go get ready," she said and he nodded, giving his mom a quick kiss on the cheek and running up the stairs to get ready.
Lita smiled as she heard Matt's footsteps from the stairs. She quickly finished with the dinner dishes and turned around just in time to see him enter the kitchen.
"Well my dear, our son is fast asleep, and it's only 9:00," whispered Matt into her ear and Lita laughed.
She sighed before turning once more towards Matt. She had something to tell him and she figured now would be as good a time as any.
"Matt," she said simply and he looked at her. He walked over and kissed her for a few seconds before she finally broke apart.
"What's up," he asked, concern lacing his voice. She had been acting really weird for a day or so and he didn't know why.
"I-I have something I want to tell you," she said and Matt slowly nodded.
"Ok..." he said, letting his voice drift. Why was she acting so evasive? Thought Matt softly. Although he let a smile drift to his face he too had something to ask Lita.
"How...how would you feel about..." she chewed on her bottom lip and Matt sighed.
"How about what," he said smirking and she sighed. Why was she so worried? She was excited, and she knew for a fact he would be too. She thought to herself. She decided to just get it over with.
"How would you fell about having another kid," she blurted it out and Matt just stared at her in disbelief. No, she couldn't be...could she?
"Lita are you..." he let his voice drift off as he saw a smile appear on her face.
"Matt, I'm pregnant," she said and Matt's eyes widened in joy. He couldn't believe it. She was pregnant, they were going to have another kid!
He quickly went over to her and wrapped her up into a passionate kiss. She grinned and he finally broke apart.
"I have something to ask you," he said and she nodded, allowing him to continue.
Before she knew it, Matt was on one knee, pulling out a small box from his pocket. Her eyes widened and he quickly swallowed hard.
"Lita, you are the greatest person I have ever met. I love you more than anything in the world. You are the mother of my child, both Lucas and this new baby. I-I couldn't imagine life without you in it. Would you marry me," he asked and Lita's smile widened.
"Yes, yes I'll marry you," she said and Matt grinned, getting up and placing the ring gently on her finger.
He wrapped her up into another passionate kiss. Nobody noticed Lucas standing at the stairs, smiling at what he had just seen.
A/n: The end! Don't worry, I'm in the process of writing another story, Mistakes. Look out for it soon. Unfortunately, there will be no sequel to this story but if I get enough requests, I have a few ideas for another story involving these same characters, Lucas and the new child included. So review if you would like me to do that.
