Disclaimer: I own nothing except my imagination and Abbey and the kids.

A/n: Alright so I decided to make this chapter from a somewhat Andrew's POV because even though this is a huge day for the whole Casey Family, it's an extremely big step to take into the real world for Andrew so I hope you guys like it.

Andrew woke up on D day, his nerves bubbling at the surface. It was the last morning that he would wake up to his double bed and that same ceiling that stared at him for the past twenty five years of his life. It would be the last time that he'd shower and change in the upstairs bathroom among several last times today was bringing and his heart was big. He got up and his feet touched the floor and he sat there looking outside his bedroom door.

"Nervous?" Andrew turned at the sound of his dad's voice.

"Yeah but I'm mostly thinking it's the last time I do a lot of things in this house."

"Waking up in this room maybe but this will always be your home. You and Amanda are always welcome here, that'll never change."

"Thanks dad, it means a lot."

"Come on, get ready, your mom made a huge breakfast."

"Nervous cooking?" He wondered.

"Nervous cooking." His dad laughed out loud before turning around and going back downstairs. He grabbed some clothes and headed for the shower, walking down the stairs about fifteen minutes later, his parents whispering in the kitchen.

"That's enough food babe. We'll never eat all of that." Andrew could hear the snicker in his dad's voice.

"It's his last breakfast here Matt, I'll so as much food as I want." She hissed, clearly not liking the fact that he thought it was funny.

"Woah mom. That's a lot of food." He smiled at her.

"Hope you're hungry then." She deadpanned, earning a kiss on her temple. Only a few seconds after his dad was sitting down across from him, the twins came walking in.

"Woah mom, are you feeding an army?" Logan asked, receiving a glare from his mom and a snicker from both Andrew and Matt, Chase deciding to keep quiet as he sat down.

"It's your brother's last official day here, let's just have a nice breakfast please." His mom begged, to which no one said a word and they all ate as a family. When it was all done, loads of food stored in containers to bring to Andrew's, everyone packed up in Abbey's truck and they drove towards Andrew's new place. They were the first ones there, Amanda having already texted Andrew that she'd be there in the next thirty minutes so Andrew started unpacking a few things with the help of his parents and brothers.

Amanda arrived as planned only her sister in tow.

"Hey babe, your parents couldn't make it?" He kissed her.

"They couldn't switch shifts but they said they'd be here for dinner, sorry."

"Hey, don't, it's fine. We've got more than enough hands to get everything done. My mom is in nervous mode." He whispered the last part.

"I'll try not to get in the way then." She whispered back with a smile. In the months since she had been dating Andrew, she had leaned a lot of things about his parents as well and when Abbey got like this, it meant that she had to stay out of the way or help so she went to help.

They emptied the boxes labelled bathroom on them, Amanda making sure she could easily find all of her things, Andrew not needing all that much. The boys had already taken care of setting up the living room, tv and audio Logan's specialty.

"This place looks nice." Amanda commented with a smile.

"Thanks." All three boys said at the same time, making Amanda, Abbey and Matt laugh. Abbey and Amanda went into the kitchen to put all the dishes away while Matt finished up the shelving unit in the living room. Amanda's parents arrived around four o'clock when all that was left was the small laundry room, both Amanda and Andrew making sure everything was ok in the rest of the appartment. Pizza arrived shortly after to go along with the beers Amanda's parents had brought with them to celebrate the kids moving in. All four adults enjoyed talking in the living room while the second generation sat at the kitchen table, talking together until the sun came down.

"Alright guys. I think we've overstayed our welcome." Abbey got up from the couch, Matt standing up as well. Abbey made her way towards her son with a smile on her face. "I'm proud of you son."

"Thanks ma and thanks for helping us set up here even though I know it's hard for you."

"I just want you to be happy. I'll be fine." She waived him off.

"We still get Sunday dinner at home right?" They had always been together on Sunday's even when they were on shift so he hoped it would continue that way.

"Always, both you and Amanda." She hugged him, Andrew wrapping his arms around his mother's waist. Ever since he was little, he had always loved the way his mother smelled and now that he was all grown up and moving out, he'd miss that above everything else. He had always felt safe when she held him like that. "I love you." She whispered to his ear.

"I love you too ma." She pulled away and let Matt pull him into a hug as well, the twins patting him on the back before they all left, leaving Amanda's parents and her sister.

"I can't believe you won't sleep in your bed tonight." Her mom pulled her in for a tight hug, tears in her eyes.

"I'll take good care of her." Andrew promised.

"I know you are." She smiled at him. "Your parents are lovely too, they've raised an amazing boy."

"Thank you." Her dad hugged her and shook his hand before her sister hugged her too and they left, finally leaving the couple by themselves, Andrew closing the door behind them. "Alone at last." He pulled her to him and she wrapped her arm around his waist.

"Yeah." She smiled up at him. "Anything you want to do now?"

"This." He threw her over his shoulder, a high pitch squeal echoing against the quiet appartment, Andrew bringing her to their room where he put her down against the mattress and kissed her fiercely. The young couple made out for a few minutes until they needed some air, Andrew giving her a small peck on the lips. "I can't believe that we're finally here."

"It's been quite the ride so far." She smiled.

"I can't wait to go on that ride with you." He kissed her again.

"And i can predict it's going to be one hell of a ride." She pulled him by the shirt an crushed her lips to his. Clothes started flying as they kissed with more passion, leaving the both naked against each other between the sheets, the two lovers enjoying their new home for the night.

In the following days, both Andrew and Amanda got used to living on their own, both mothers popping in with different groceries and emmenities, making sure their kids didn't miss out of anything. Abbey never quite got used to the fact that her eldest son had moved out but the fact that he was working on the same shift as her and Matt made it a lot easier.

A/n: Alright so I know this chapter is a bit short but that's where my imagination took me. There's only two chapters left and next up we'll see the twins graduating from the academy.

I hope you guys liked it(remember there are only two more chapters to this story) and please take a few minutes to leave a review, they're always appreciated. - Sarra
