CLARE'S POV

I woke up to the smell of bacon being cooked. I went downstairs to see what was going on. I noticed Eli cooking and Erika was standing right beside him helping him make scrambled eggs.

"Mommy look we're making breakfast for you and my baby brother" Erika laughed

"Thank you both" I smiled

I then walked into the kitchen and gave Eli a kiss.

I was now 6 months pregnant and my little Erika is 8 years old. Eli and I are married and now we're known as the Goldsworthy's Erika too, Eli asked KC if he could adopt her and KC allowed it.

"Clare why don't you go sit down that way you can get your rest" Eli said

"Eli I just woke up"

"Ok in that case just relax and Erika and I'll take care of everything."

"Only if we can go to the park as a family."

"Yea daddy lets go to the park I'll be able to get all of my energy out and mommy can sit down on the swings or something."

"Fine only Clare you can't chase Erika that's my job." Eli said smiling at me

"Ok daddy I like it when you chase me and here mommy have some orange juice"

"Really why?" Eli asked

"Because mommy runs faster than you."

I laughed so hard I almost choked on my juice.

"Clare that's not funny." Eli said

"It's hysterical" I laughed

Eli gave Erika a mean look

"Daddy it's true you don't really keep up with me, but then again I can't always get away from mommy and running from her never gets boring"

"Aww thank you Erika" I said

"Here Clare eat up" Eli said handing me my breakfast. "And gee thank you Erika, but wait until your baby brother is born you won't be able to keep up with him."

"I might" Erika replied as she carried her breakfast to the table.

We all ate breakfast as a family we were so happy.

KC POV

I haven't seen Clare or Erika in over a year, but I've kept in touch. I'm going to surprise them by stopping by to see them even though Erika calls me "Uncle KC" and Eli "Daddy" I'm still happy I've made the right choice by letting Eli adopt her, but I can't get over Clare and I need closure.

As I walked past the park I heard laughter and yelling at the same time so I moved closer.

"Help help Erika, daddy's attacking me!" Clare yelled

On the ground laid a pregnant Clare being tickled by Eli and Erika was running over to them.

"Daddy, daddy you're not supposed to tickle mommy or my baby brother, mommy and I are supposed to tickle you"

Erika then attacked Eli causing him to lose balance while Clare and Erika tickled him. I couldn't help, but laugh at the scene. All three of them were laughing really hard and all of a sudden Clare stood up. I couldn't really hear what she was saying, but Eli and Erika had concerned looks on their faces, then Eli stood behind Clare and wrapped his arms around her rubbing her belly.

"Mommy, Daddy lets go home" Erika yelled as she grabbed Eli and Clare by their hands and all three started walking.

The three of them looked like a happy family each with bright faces full of smiles. I felt at ease knowing how happy they were and I finally got my closure after all these years since I didn't attend the wedding.
