Hi! Well, I'm sick. Sorry for uploading this chapter a little later, but I was editing and sleeping (and throwing up). There's a time skip in this one. Enjoy!

Chapter 3

Flora's POV

Layla and Nabu's House

1 Year Later

"Raya, come back here!" I said, getting up and following the crawling baby, then picking her up. I placed her in her crib and sat in the chair that was next to it.

I patted her head in a rhythmic fashion when I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"She asleep yet?" whispered Helia.

"No, not yet. Theo?" I asked, whispering back.

"Out cold. They had a long day today, I think," he said. I scooted over and he sat next to me and held my hand. I smiled.

As I patted Raya's hair, my diamond and aquamarine engagement ring glittered in the light. Helia got aquamarine, my birthstone for my ring and it's absolutely beautiful.

After Bloom and Sky got married, they went to the Caribbean for their honeymoon. Layla had the twins a month after the wedding; they were preemies. As planned, they were named Raya and Theodore, and they were absolutely adorable.

Stella was pregnant, though she was only 7 months along. Tecna and Timmy had gotten married in a beautiful (and completely un-irrational) ceremony.

Our wedding was to take place in 4 months. We didn't want the wedding to be so closely timed with every other event that was happening.

Tomorrow, actually, was when all of us would go to the venue and decide on decorations. Layla and Nabu had gone to see Nabu's grandparents and were coming back in an hour or so, and we were baby-sitting the twins.

"They're adorable, aren't they?" I asked, looking at him.

"They are," he said, smiling at me. "I can't wait till we have some little ones running around the house,"

I blushed and looked away. Helia and I were looking into houses. It was just me in my apartment, Bloom had moved out and I was getting lonely, so after work I spent most of my time with Helia or with Layla, helping take care of the twins.

I yawned.

"You can sleep if you want," said Helia.

I rested my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.

"I can't wait for tomorrow," said Helia.

I sleepily murmured in agreement.

"Good night," he said, putting an arm around my shoulder and pulling me closer.

"Good night," I said as sleep overtook me.

That was quite short, but next chapter will be long. I'll post it sometime next week. R&R, please!
