Epilogue One Year Later
"John, everything is set for the party outside right?" Emily said as they were in the kitchen.
"Yes, everything is good to go." He replied to his wife of almost four years. "Relax. This is going to be a great day."
"I know. I just want thing to be perfect for Molly."
"It will be." He had laugh at how obsessed she was with making sure Molly had a perfect first birthday party.
"Okay. I'm going to make sure Molly is ready. Can you handle everything outside?"
"Yes. Now go and make sure our little princess is ready."
He watched as she headed upstairs to Molly. He couldn't help but think back to the last year. Molly being born early when Emily had some complications. Then the trial to make sure Drew went away for what he had done. The trial had been hard on Emily as she had to relive everything in her relationship with Drew as well as when he pushed her down the stairs.
John had been relieved when Drew was sentenced to ten years in prison for the assault and breaking his probation and restraining order. He hoped Drew would finally get the message and move on from Emily. John was brought out of his thoughts when the doorbell rang. He knew it was probably Bret. He had loved being a grandfather and spoiled Molly like everyone else did.
"Bret, nice to see you." John said opening the door to his father-in-law.
"You too. Where are my girls?" Bret asked walking in with his really big present he got Molly.
"Upstairs. Emily is making sure Molly is ready."
"Well, I hope Molly likes my gift."
"I'm sure she will. You spoil her, Bret." John laughed.
"It's my job as her grandfather. To spoil her more than I did Emily when she was younger." Bret laughed back.
"Dad, I thought I heard you." Emily said walking downstairs with Molly.
"There is my favorite girl." Bret said taking Molly from Emily. "Everything ready for the party?"
"Yep." Emily replied as everyone else started to arrive.
Soon the party was underway and everything was having a good time. The kids were playing on the blow up jumping castle and petting the animals from the petting zoo.
Bret held Molly and let her pet the animals while Emily put the finishing touches on things. Soon it was time for cake. Everyone started singing happy birthday to Molly.
"Okay, Molly, blow out the candle." Emily said holding her. "On three, one, two, three."
Emily and John both helped blow it out while Evan videotaped it. Everyone laughed when Molly did what every baby often does on their first birthday. She put her hand in the cake and put it all over John. After Emily got Molly cleaned up, they opened presents.
Once most everyone had gone, and it was just Randy, John, Evan, and Bret in the living room. Emily was putting Molly down for the night.
"So, Drew is finally in jail?" Randy asked.
"Yep. The judge sentenced him to ten years. He won't be paroled until he serves them all. Since he violated his probation and the restraining order from the first arrest." John replied.
"I'm glad about that. I hope he moves on and leaves Emily alone." Bret added.
"I agree with that. Hopefully prison will make him realize that Emily is happy and has moved on and its time he did the same." Evan added to the conversation.
"I agree with that." John said just as Emily came back downstairs and sat beside him. "Molly asleep."
"Yes. She had a fun and exhausting day." Emily laughed. "Especially since her papa and her uncles here spoiled her with all the gifts."
"She is my only grandchild. It's my job." Bret replied.
"Yeah." Emily laughed.
"Well, Em, I'm out of here. I will see you guys later." Evan said hugging her and leaving.
Bret and Randy were staying with John and Emily. Everyone soon headed up to bed.
"Em, are you okay?" John asked as they got ready for bed. She had seemed to be in her own world for a minute.
"Yeah. I was just thinking about how happy I am." She said to him. "This is everything I could ever want."
"I agree. I know things have not always been good and we did start out because everyone thought I attacked you."
"I'm still so sorry about that."
"Em, it's over now. Drew is where he should be and I think everyone thinking that was probably a good thing. Because it led us to be together which led to Molly. And I can't think of anything I love more than you and Molly."
"I love you too." She kissed him.
She knew he was right. Everything that happened led them to where they were and to their daughter. They were forever bound together by her and the love that somehow came out of a terrible situation.
