Five years later…

"Kate we're going to be late!" he yelled from the lounge as Kate made her way down the stairs

"I'm coming" she answered stopping in the mirror as she put her earrings in

"Mmm you look amazing" he said moving to stand behind her as he placed his hands on her hips looking at her floor length red dress that had an opened back and stopped just before her tailbone showing all the curves of Kate's back

"We don't have time" she answered trying to focus as he began kissing her neck

"Why not? The twins are at Mikes he going to meet us there and I want you all to myself before things get more hectic around here" he answered as he spun her around to face him

"That's not for another 7 months yet" she said as his hand moved down to rest on her small bump

"You really look great in this dress Kate" he said smirking as he moved his head in for another kiss

"No" she replied placing her hand on his lips

"We have to go, Mike's expecting us" she said nodding as he loosened his grip

"So are we going to tell anyone tonight?" he asked hopeful as they moved towards the door

"What that we secretly got married two months ago and we're expecting a baby, do you really think that's going to go down well with the crew?" she asked stopping next to the door

"I hate to break it to you Kate but we're wearing rings I think they will figure it out" he said smirking at her

"Get out" she said smirking as she pushed him out the door

"I'm just stating the obvious" he answered laughing as Kate pulled the door shut behind her locking it.

Arriving at the beach Kate and Dutchy exited the car as they made their way over to the group of people 2 little kids came running over

"Mummy!" they yelled as the little girl ran into her arms the little boy ran into Dutchy's arms

"Daddy gave us ice cream for breakfast" he said as Mike made his way over

"Did you feed our kids ice cream for breakfast?" Kate asked amused as she gave Mike her best stern look

"First of all MJ wanted Pancakes and Lilly Rose wanted ice cream so I just combined them" he said grinning widely as Kate shook her head

"It was Chocolate chip!" MJ said grinning at Dutchy

"Really?" Dutchy said smiling

"Come on everything's almost ready we're just waiting for the groom" Mike answered as they walked down the little hill as they made their way towards the chairs

"Of course he'd be late to his own wedding, so the bride's here?" Kate asked softly

"Yeah she's over there" he said pointing to the tent

"I might go check in with her" she said passing Lilly Rose to Mike

"She's a bit emotional" Mike replied as Kate made her way over to the tent.

"Knock, knock" Kate said softly as she entered the tent

"Oh Kate thank god!" the young girl said pulling her into a hug

"Is everything okay?" Kate asked as they sat down on the little bench

"Is he here yet?" she asked nervously

"Ah no, typical 2Dad's you know how he is" Kate said smirking

"Yeah…" was her reply

"You know I still can't believe you two are getting married I thought you didn't do the older guy thing" Kate said nudging her slightly

"I guess fate had other ideas you know he was always a show off on board but I really got to know him and he turned out to be such a sweet guy" she replied as Kate smiled

"Well when 2 hearts connect you can't really ignore it"

"Is that how it was for your and Dutchy?" she asked

"Yeah something like that, although I went for the younger guy instead" Kate said laughing

"Can I ask you a favour?" she said softly

"Anything"

"My Dad can't make it, would you walk me down the aisle?" she asked hopeful

"Are you sure? I mean you don't want someone like Mike or even Dutchy?" she asked confused

"You were the closest thing to family I had while on board you were like a…"

"If you say Mother" Kate said grinning

"I was going to say sister, I never had one growing up" she said softly

"I'd be honoured" Kate replied pulling her into a hug as Mike poked his head through the tent

"We're ready" he said smiling

"I'm so nervous" she replied as she arose and Kate pulled her veil over her face

"2Dads is going to cry when he sees how beautiful you are" Kate said softly as they made their way out of the tent and the music started playing.

As they began walking down the aisle Kate couldn't help but smile as Lilly Rose threw flowers and MJ carried the ring stopping next to 2Dads who high fived him as Kate gave the young girl a hug she made her way to sit next to Dylan in the front row as 2Dads began to tear up looking at the beautiful woman before him

"We're gathered here today to celebrate the bringing together of two hearts who seemed to be destined for each other Jessica Bird and Leo Kosov-Meyer or as their Navy workmates call them Bird and 2Dads" the priest said

as Kate smiled widely Dutchy interlocked his hand with hers as Mike smiled on noticing the rings on each other fingers making a mental note to ask them about it later.

Hours later as Kate and Dylan were dancing on the dance floor Mike made his way over

"Mind if I cut in?" he asked hopeful

"Absolutely, I'll go and check on the kids" Dutchy answered kissing Kate's cheek as he moved for Mike to step in

"So you and Dylan got married" he said smiling at her

"How did you know?"

"Your both wearing rings Kate it's a bit hard to not notice" he said giggling

"I hear congratulation are also in order" he said taking a quick glance at her small stomach

"Okay I'm going to have a serious talk with Dutchy about keeping his mouth shut" she answered softly

"It's nice to see you happy Kate" he said pulling her close as she rested her head against his shoulder

"There was awhile there I didn't think we'd make it, but it's good to see you and Dutchy back to the way things were before everything" she said softly

"We were friends before everything Kate and its always going to be that way, have you told everyone about you guys?" he asked moving to look in her eyes

"Not yet, It's Jess and 2Dads day we don't want to ruin it" she said as he let her go

"Really…" he said softly as he moved towards the stage

"What are you doing?" she asked confused watching him

"Excuse me everyone" he said through the microphone as everyone turned to look at him

"I know this is your day Bird, 2Dads but I've got some exciting news to share with you all" he said looking at Kate who was turning bright red

"What's he doing?" Dutchy asked moving next to Kate

"Being Mike" she answered

"Kate and Dutchy are expecting a child together" he said as the whole room roared in loud cheers

"And… And" he said holding his hand up

"They got MARRIED!!" he said as everyone began clapping and cheering as Mike made his way over to Kate

"Thanks for that..." she said sarcastically

"It's about time you two!" 2Dads yelled across the room and Bird hit his chest

"Ouch" he said in a sad voice

"I guess baby Mullholland will have a future cousin to play with" Jess answered smirking as 2Dads placed a hand on her stomach

"Absolutely Mrs Kosov-Meyer" he said kissing her softly as he pulled her towards the dance floor the rest of the night being special as the old crew and new crew shared in the beautiful moment as they celebrated the nuptials between their two youngest sailors.

Thanks for sticking till the very end everyone! So just a little note: MJ is short for Micheal Junior and Lilly Rose is just a random name I picked their obviously the twins and Dutchy, Mike and Kate all do the whol co-parenting thing. Hope you enjoy! Much love Xx
