Chapter 25

"Not Meant to Be"

The steady hum the transporter brought Wil back home. After thanking the chief he kissed the floor. It's been 12 weeks and he was glad to be home. He had so much to tell his family that he quickly left the door closing behind him. Rushing to the nearest lift the door hissed behind.

"Deck 8"

"Only a few more floors and I can see my family."

When the lift stopped Wil raced down the corridor and to his room. When the doors didn't open automatically Wil began to panic. He touched the chimes. The sound of his wife voice was all he needed.

"Come in."

Wil came across his daughter first smiling as always he hushed her words and went to his room. Deanna was in the bathroom brushing her hair her beautiful hair how he longed to touch it.

"What do you have to do to get some service in this place?"

Deanna rushed out to the sound of her husband's voice.

"Oh Wil your home! I missed you so much."

"The feelings are mutual I see that Lily has been taking really good care of you."

"She always does."

Kissing him full on the lips Wil picked her Deanna up into his arms giving her more kisses. Deanna never cared much for the beard but today it didn't matter today he was finally home.

"You better go get cleaned up you're a mess. I'll have dinner ready when you get back."

"I hope so I'm starving the only food they gave us was stale rice and water. It's good to be home again."

Putting Deanna on her feet her kissed her one last time and left for the bathroom. Lily was at the table when Deanna came over to see her.

"Mommy why are you crying aren't you happy that daddy is home?"

"No I'm so happy to see him we have so much to talk about."

"Are you going to tell him about the baby?"

"Not yet let's wait until he is home a few day okay?"

Lily nods and goes back to what she was doing before. Deanna leaves and puts Wil's things in the laundry.

"Just a few more days then I'll tell him I want him to get settled in first only a few more day then I'll tell him."

"Tell me what Deanna?"

With only one review I will be taking a break until I get more. I put a lot in this story and I'm not getting any response. Each of these chapters is 1-2 pages long so I know it wasn't because I was dragging. Things are just beginning to get interesting if you want to see how this turns out I need reviews or I will end right here with the epilogue.
