"What are we doing today?" Charlie asked, bouncing behind her mom in the kitchen while they made the boys breakfast.

"Me and you are gonna shop and have a girls day," she grinned back at her baby girl whose face had lighted up, "and daddy and the boys are gonna hang out just them."

"Finally," she said with an elated groan. "I've been wanting to hangout without them!"

Liv laughed and shook her head. "Why didn't you tell me??"

"I didn't wanna hurt Ben's feelings," she sighed shaking her head.

"You two are something else," she smiled, kissing her head and plopping a few more pancakes on the plate in the middle of the table. "Go wake up daddy, okay?"

She nodded and sprinted off with a big smile.

Listening as Charlie hoisted herself onto their bed, Liv laughed at El's playful groan that was followed closely by Charlie's squeal and giggles.

Down the hall, Benny's door opened and he yawned and stretched, sleepily walking over to hug his mom.

She lifted him up and kissed his cheek. "Still tired?" She whispered, and he nodded, laying on her shoulder with his eyes closed.

"Sounds like all my boys wanna sleep in. How about I let you snuggle with daddy and Charlie and I will get an early start?"

"Mhm," he mumbled, becoming more and more dead weight in her arms by the second.

She whisked her youngest boy off to her room, tucking him in beside his daddy.

Charlie was giving her mom a look, and Liv stifled a laugh, kissing her nose. "Go pick out your outfit for today," she nodded and Charlie smiled, jumping down.

Elliot had immediately rolled onto his side to hug his baby boy, and she could tell by his breathing he was falling back asleep already.

"Me and baby girl are gonna go out now," she whispered and he nodded, puckering his lips for a kiss.

She pressed a soft kiss to his lips, swiping them with her tongue and making his eyes shoot open.

"Evil," he muttered and she laughed, moving to toss on some jeans and a cozy sweater. She fixed her hair and put on light make up before meeting Charlie in her room.

"Mommy," the little girl, who was dressed and waiting for her mom to do her hair asked.

"Yes my love?" She replied, sitting behind her and gently beginning to brush her dark curls.

"I really want you and daddy to get married," she whispered, sadly.

"Oh baby…" Liv breathed out, pulling her into her lap and kissing her nose. "We know and…" she hesitated. "Do you trust me?"

"Yeah of course mommy," she nodded and Liv kissed her nose. "Good… now come on. Let's finish your hair and go shopping!"


Liv and her mini-me walked around the city and in and out of different stores, buying way too many things. They were making their way down the street from lunch when they stopped in front of a bridal store and Liv sunk down to her daughter's level.

"Can I tell you a secret? It's a mommy, daddy, and Charlie secret. Okay?"

She nodded quickly, taking her mom's hands, her dark brown eyes meeting her mom's.

"Me and daddy are gonna get married when we go to the mountains for Christmas and everyone is there," Liv said in an excited whisper.

Charlie's jaw dropped and then she gasped, her cheeks that were already rosy from the cold reddened more from her sheer excitement.

She stood frozen, just grasping her mom's hands as the tears finally flooded her eyes.

"You okay??" Liv asked, laughing softly and moving a hand to brush a tear that had finally fallen.

"Really???" She asked in a quiet whisper that made Liv smile bigger. "Really," she affirmed, laughing out loud as her little daughter crashed into her arms and started to cry from excitement and joy.

"Mommy this this amazing," she sobbed into her neck and Liv laughed, starting to cry herself.

"I'm sorry it took so long but we're gonna surprise everyone… you know how much me and daddy love each other and you guys?"

She nodded quickly and pulled back, putting her little hands on her mom's cheeks. "Momma I'm so happy!"

"Me too my love… come on… you wanna pick out pretty dresses??"

Charlie nodded immediately and the pair hurried inside, laughing and crying as they tried on different dresses, finally settling on one for both of them.


The boys were grumbling about going shopping as they all laid in bed with Elliot and Ben, eating the pancakes their mom and sister had left for them.

"Can't we just order online? She won't know!" Noah suggested and Ben nodded. "Good idea."

"You think everything Noah does is a good idea," Eli teased and Ben giggled, leaning against him.

"Guys we gotta go shopping," El said for the 500th time.

"We have so many nice shirts! Come on dad," Eli sighed and El sat up, looking at them.

"If I tell you something will you promise to keep it a secret from everyone but mom?" He asked, adding, "and also shut up and go shopping today?"

"Language, daddy," Benny mused and Eli snickered.

"Sorry," he grumbled. "And stop being annoying," he corrected.

They all nodded and El's face lit up before he even realized.

"Me and mommy are getting married in the mountains on Christmas Day."

Ben jumped up so fast that Eli had to catch him so he didn't fall on Noah, who was already sitting forward excitedly.

"Finally!!!" Ben cried, jumping free from his brother and crashing into his daddy's arms.

Noah and Eli joined the dog pile, laughing hysterically and trying to hide their emotions.

"Okay! Let's go shopping jeez!" Noah cried, jumping up.

"Let's goooo!" Eli agreed following him, but Ben stayed clutched onto El.

"Daddy I'm so, so happy," he sighed contentedly.

"Me too boy… I'm sorry it took forever. But I love your mom so much and will do everything to make her happy," he nodded and Ben smiled.

"I know dad," he smiled, leaning back to reveal the tears in his eyes.

"Benjamin!" Noah called, "we matching today?!"

"Duh!" Ben called back with a grin hugging his dad one last time before sprinting off to his room where his brother was waiting.

Ben always had to match his big brother. If Noah wore a polo, Ben had to; If he wore a t-shirt and a ball cap, he had to, too.

El got dressed and met his boys in the kitchen, smiling at Ben's ear-to-ear grin.

"Daddy I'm just so happy," he said again, and leaned into Eli's side, smiling.

"Me too," Eli smiled and Noah nodded. "For sure!!!"

"I can't even tell Charlie?!" Ben asked nervously, making El laugh. "I'll ask mommy okay? It's supposed to be a surprise!"

"I can't keep a secret from her," he groaned and El laughed harder.

"You two," he smiled.

"She's got us all wrapped," Eli admitted, "now come in, let's get going!"


The boys had a blast picking out clothes for pictures and the ceremony and some new baseball swag, as well as last minute Christmas gifts for their mom and sister.

When they got home, Liv and Charlie were sleeping on the couch, snuggled up together with the blankets tucked around them.

It was almost 6 o'clock, and Benny smiled, climbing up beside them and curling into her arms.

Liv woke up slightly and smiled, yawning. "Hi baby boy… you're home."

"Hi mama," he smiled, cuddling into her. "Today was soooo fun," he sighed happily.

"Yeah?? What'd you get???"

"Outfits for Christmas and some stuff for baseball andddddd some other stuff," he giggled and she smiled.

"Oh yeah???" She smiled, gently brushing Charlie's hair back when she woke a little.

"Mhm!"

"Benny I missed you," Charlie piped up when she heard her brother, and he grinned, laying his head against her's. "I missed you too!"

El laughed and came out from their room from putting bags down, and the boys followed from their room. "We're going to Dickie's," they announced.

"Wait I wanna come!" Ben frowned and Charlie frowned bigger.

"Charlie too!" He added making her smile.

Noah and Eli looked at one another and shrugged. "Okay, okay. Get in your PJs and let's go."

They both gasped and sprinted to their rooms to change. Liv smiled up at El. "Well, this works out."

"Hmmm it does," he hummed, kissing her gently.

"Alright people save it," Noah groaned, making them laugh.

Ben and Charlie sprinted back out at the same time, wearing matching sweat pants and sweatshirts and making one another crack up.

"Come on kiddos," Eli said, pulling in his sweatshirt that matched theirs. All three looked to Noah expectantly, who groaned and retreated to his room to get his.

Liv laughed and hugged and kissed them goodbye, and El walked them down.

The four got into the car just as it started to snow a little, and El waved bye, blowing kisses and making them promise to text when they arrived.

The twins were clearly on pins and needles in the backseat, and Noah turned to look back at them.

"What's wrong??"

"I have a secret!" They blurted together, heads snapping to look at one another.

"What's your secret?" Ben asked cautiously.

"What's yours??" Charlie countered.

He looked anxiously at his brothers and Eli sighed, giving him a nod.

"Mommy and daddy are getting married at Christmas!" He squealed and she gasped, grinning.

"I'm so glad he told you guys!!!! I couldn't hold it in," Charlie groaned.

Noah and Eli laughed, not at all surprised by their mom and dad's constant synchronization.

The twins chattered happily and excitedly in the back seat, all the way up until they arrived, swearing to their brothers that they'd keep the secret from Dickie.

Both older brothers were skeptical, and the twins were bouncing everywhere when Dickie opened the door.

"Hi Dickie!" They rushed out together, sprinting inside to find Lilly.

Dickie gave his younger brothers a look and they held their hands up. "They're weird," Eli shrugged and Noah nodded. "The weirdest."

"You know I'm gonna get it out of them right?"

"Did you hear something?" Noah asked Eli as they made their way into the kitchen for pizza.

"Nope, you?"

"Nope."


Liv was standing in their living room, looking out the large window in their living room at the flurrying snow when Elliot came back in.

She looked back over her shoulder at him with a sweet smile, and handed him a mug of spiked and warmed eggnog.

He happily took it from her, sipped it, and then set it down so he could wrap his arms around her properly and press against her.

Humming a soft moan of approval, she sipped her drink and leaned into him, shivering at the cold of his hands and body from being outside.

"I missed you today," he whispered and she nodded. "Me too baby."

He felt her hesitate, and then in the reflection of them in the window, watched her smile small.

"I told Charlie today…"

She felt the grin on the back of her head before she saw it, and exhaled happily as his lips trailed down to her ear. "I told the boys too…"

Their laughter filled the empty space and, after several minutes, their eyes met in the window once again, a sudden heat and desire having filled them.

"I wanna watch us," she whispered, covering his hands with her's and sliding them down to her waist band.

He let out a soft moan at her words, the husk of her aroused voice shooting straight down to his cock.

After ridding her of her mug, he dipped his hand in her pants and she whimpered when his thick fingers spread her folds apart.

"Wet for me…. What's made you so wet," he mused, looking up from where he was kissing her neck to meet her eyes in the window again.

"All day…. But trying on dresses really did it for me," she whispered.

"Gonna let me see it?"

"Before our wedding?"

Her question trailed off into a moan when he pressed a finger into her throbbing core.

"When have we ever don't anything in order," he countered, pumping slowly as she struggled to claw down her leggings.

"Let's see how hard you can make me cum," she whispered seductively trying to outplay him.

"That a challenge?" He asked, removing his finger and pulling down her leggings to reveal her tan and shaped legs.

"Mhm," she said, gasping when she found her leg up in the air and felt his bare cock against her ass.

"Haven't done this position in a while," he noted, his eyes never leaving hers in the window. "Cause you can't keep quiet… huh?"

She nodded quickly, gasping when he scraped his short nails from her hip along to her lower back, and then down to grasp himself and find her center.

"You gonna keep quiet?" He taunted, pressing in just his tip and making her concentration on him break.

"N-no…"

"No," he mused, bottoming out in her in one strong thrust that made her breath hitch and her jaw fall open.

His thrusts were slow but powerful, each one purposeful as he worked to increase her pleasure.

She was tight in their current position, and he had to fight her on every movement.

He moved his hand up to her neck, and then her chin, lifting it and forcing it up to meet his gaze in the window.

"Watch us," he commanded, and she did.

The whines and cries that escaped her mouth were getting louder and louder, and the site of her partner's concentration and the way his movements made her tits bounce were working her into a frenzy.

"Touch yourself," he said, biting and licking at her ear while still keeping his eyes on her.

He watched with glee as her slender fingers found her clit and started quick rotations that made her name tumble from his lips.

"I can feel you, Livie… feel you wanting to cum around my cock."

"El…. Uhhhng El come on faster," she begged, the muscles in her neck tightened and her chest heaved as she tried to suck in the air that her climaxing body craved.

He sped up, moving his hand from her neck to her waist in an attempt to keep her upright. Holding onto her tightly, he thrusted himself more quickly as his orgasm approached.

"Oh…. Oh….ELLIOT!!!!!" She screamed, unraveling and clenching and unclenching around him.

His breath was heavy then, too, and he grunted and then muttered her name, spilling deep into her and making her back arch out and her legs wobble.

Her hand still was furiously rubbing her clit, and he lowered the leg he was holding, fitting himself more snuggly into her and taking over the quick movements on her nub that was almost too sensitive to touch.

"Elliot! Fuck! Fuck fuck fuck!!!!!!!!"

"Whose pussy is this," he growled, forcing his eyes to not roll back when she fluttered violently around his now sensitive cock.

"Yours," she mumbled through her heavy breaths are her legs buckled.

With strong arms, he kept her upright and asked his question again. "I didn't hear you," he hissed.

"YOURS!!!" She cried, coming undone again and falling almost to the ground when her legs finally gave out.

The hands he hand in her waist and core caught her, but only sent himself flying deeper in the new position.

"Shit Olivia," he grunted, pulling her back up and moving them backward to the wing chair that sat in front of the window.

She was deliriously satisfied as she relaxed back against him, and the intensity of her orgasms had her still quivering around him.

He blindly reached for a blanket to pull over them, choosing to remain deep inside of her as they covered up and caught their breaths.

"So…" he asked a after a few minutes, once the room had quieted and their pulses slowed. "Do I get that first look?"

"Not a chance," she mewled quietly.
