Ten years later
February, Monday 17th
The patter of tiny feet tiptoeing not so quietly down the hallway was heard before the door handle was turned and the door pushed opened slowly. A three year old Haven Wilder crept into her parents' bedroom before she jumped onto their double bed.
"Mommy! Daddy!" she yelled loudly as she jumped on their bed. Addison gave a grown and snuggled closer to her husband before she buried her face into his chest. He tightened his arms around her and tried to ignore the yelling of their daughter. "WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" Haven yelled and continued to jump.
"Haven, please." Pete mumbled, his eyes closed.
"Dada, get up." She landed on his chest and looked down at him.
"Sleep, baby." He pulled her down.
"Nooo dada." Haven whined. "Time to get up."
"It's early."
"Nooo." She shook her head so her messy red locks bounced around her face. "You say we ave pancakes."
"How about you go play for a while longer and when I get up I make you pancakes?"
"No, now!" She stuck her bottom lip out in a pout at her father.
"Baby, please." Pete sighed.
"Up! Now!"
"Urgh." Pete looked at her before he sat up. "I'm not going to play with you for at least the next two weeks."
"Noooooo." Haven whined at him and grasped hold of his shirt.
"Yes." He got up from the bed.
"Just put her back in her own bed." Addison murmured from the bed. Pete sighed before he picked Haven up and left the room. The little girl pouted at her father and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Will you be a good girl and sleep for a while longer, baby?" Pete looked at his daughter.
"I no tired." she whined.
"Then play with your new dolls."
"You pway wif me."
"But daddy is really tired, baby."
Haven stuck her lip our further in a pout. Pete smiled softly before he placed a kiss on her cheek. "I no want sleep. Pancakes?"
"Will you go play after?"
"Yesssss." Haven nodded.
"Okay." Pete nodded and carried her into the kitchen. She grinned and bounced in her father's arms happily. Pete smiled and rolled his eyes at his daughter before he put her down on a chair.
"I help?" she asked and stood up on the chair holding onto the back.
"No baby, sit down." He glanced at her and got the pancake mix from the cupboard.
"I want to help." Haven pouted and sat down with a thud before she crossed her arms.
"Haven, please." Pete sighed and picked her up before he sat her down on the counter.
"I help." She declared and reached for the bowl.
"There put that in." He opened the mix and gave it to her. Haven grinned and emptied the mix into the bowl, spilling some of it over the side. Pete took hold of the bowl before he put some water in and stirred everything together.
"Raisins?" Haven looked at her father.
"I don't think we have any baby."
"None?" she frowned.
"Let me look." Pete walked over to a cupboard before he reached for a few left over raisins.
"Yay!" Haven grinned and clapped her hands as she bounced on the counter. He gave a small and put the raisins in before he put everything on a boiler on the stove.
"Hmm, good morning." Addison smiled as she walked into the kitchen.
"Mommy! Pancakes!" Haven grinned.
"So I see." Addison walked over to her daughter and kissed her forehead.
"I was going to get her to play after." Pete looked at his wife.
"It's okay, I'm up now." She walked over to him and kissed him softly.
"Okay." He gave a small sigh and kissed her back. Addison smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist. He turned back to the stove and turned the pancakes before he put them on a plate.
"Come on, madam, better wash your hands." Addison picked Haven up.
"Nooo." She whined.
"Yes." Addison nodded and turned the tap on. "Wash your hands." Haven pouted and held her hands under the water briefly. "With soap." Addison looked at her daughter.
"Where soap?"
"Here." Addison picked the soap up from the soap holder on the window sill. Haven took the soap and washed her hands clumsily. Addison laughed softly before she reached out and rubbed the soap into her daughter's hands then swilled it off.
"There you go, Haven." Pete placed her pancakes on the table before he put the mix back into the cupboard.
"Give mummy a kiss first." Addison looked at her daughter. Haven sighed and quickly kissed her mother before she wiggled to get to her pancakes. Addison smiled and placed her daughter in her chair so she could eat her pancakes.
"You don't want any, do you?" Pete yawned.
"I'll eat what Haven doesn't." Addison smiled at her husband. "You go back to bed."
"It's fine." He shrugged. "I was going to make you a full English but I figured not at half seven."
"Go back to bed for a while and then you can make me a full English."
Pete sighed and nodded.
"I know she had you up late last night." Addison softly pecked his lips.
"I'd just rather go back to sleep with you."
"I'll get her settled with some toys and I'll come back to bed."
"Yeah." He sighed before he left the kitchen.
"Hey, happy anniversary," Addison called after him.
"This is how you wish me a happy anniversary?" He raised his eyebrows.
"This is just the start." She grinned.
"It better be."
"It is, don't worry."
Pete nodded and disappeared upstairs. Addison smiled and sat down next to her daughter.
"Want some?" Haven mumbled.
"No, it's okay, you eat it."
"Okay." She nodded and stuffed more pancakes into her mouth. Addison smiled and ran her fingers through her daughter's locks. "Pway with me, mommy?"
"Finish eating first."
Haven sighed and continued to eat her pancakes.
"What do you want to play?"
"Dolls."
"Okay then." Addison smiled softly. Haven grinned before she pushed her plate away. "Finished, baby?"
"Yeah." She nodded her head so her red locks bounced around her face.
"Okay." Addison smiled and finished the little bit of pancakes Haven had left before she carried the plate to the sink. Haven jumped from the chair and looked up at her mother. "Let's go play dolls then." Addison held her hand out to her daughter. Haven grinned and took hold of her mother's hand before she bounced upstairs and into her room. Addison smiled and watched her daughter for a few seconds before she joined her with her dolls.
Two hours later, Pete was still led in bed after he had managed to go back to sleep. Addison smiled softly as she walked into the bedroom and made her way over to her closet. She reached up on tiptoes and pulled a box down from the top shelf. She held it in her hands as she made her way over to the bed.
"Hey, wake up, sleepy head." Addison sat down and softly shook Pete awake. Pete mumbled something and buried his face deeper into her pillow. "Babe, wake up." She leaned down and softly kissed him. He kissed her back slowly and reached an arm out to pull her closer. "Happy anniversary." she whispered.
"Happy anniversary, baby," Pete whispered back.
"Do you want your present now?" she trailed her fingers over his cheek.
"Yeah." He nodded and pecked her lips again.
"Happy anniversary." Addison grinned and held the box out to him. Pete smiled softly and took hold of the box before he sat up. "I hope you like it." She tucked her legs underneath her and leaned back against the headboard.
"I'm sure I will." He told her before he opened the box and looked inside. Addison bit down on her lip and watched his face for his reaction. He wrinkled his eyebrows slightly before he reached into the box. He pulled out a small, white, soft material which fell open to reveal a small baby grow. He looked down at it and smiled softly as he read the saying 'I'm as cool as my daddy' on it.
"There's more," she whispered. Pete glanced up at her before he looked back into the box and his eyes widened as he saw the positive pregnancy test inside. "Are you happy?" Addison asked quietly.
"I...you're pregnant?" He looked at her shocked.
"I'm pregnant." She nodded. "I think I'm about six weeks." Pete looked at her before he smiled and leaned forward to kiss her. "I know you want a son." she whispered.
"I do." He smiled softly.
"Maybe this one's a boy." Addison smiled back and placed a hand on her stomach.
"It better be." Pete smiled and lifted her shirt so he could place a kiss on her stomach. She laughed softly and ran a hand through his hair. He smiled softly and placed soft kisses all over her stomach.
"You know when this baby was conceived?" she whispered.
"When?" He sat up and looked at his wife.
"I think it was on your birthday." She smiled softly.
"How do you know?"
"Just a feeling." She shrugged. Pete smiled and leaned forward to kiss her again. Addison softly kissed him back and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I love you, baby." Pete whispered.
"And I love you, so, so much."
"Want my present?"
"I do." She nodded and slowly let him go. Pete smiled and got up before he got her present from his closet. Addison sat up fully and crossed her legs.
"Happy anniversary." He smiled and handed her the present before he sat back down.
"Thank you." Addison smiled back and slowly unwrapped her present. Pete sat and watched her quietly. Her eyes went wide as she picked up the charm bracelet which lay on top of a photo of her, Pete and Haven.
"Do you like it?" Pete looked at her.
"I love it." She smiled at him. "Thank you."
"I'm glad." He smiled back. Addison leaned up and kissed him softly. He kissed her back and placed a hand on her leg.
"Ten years ago today we got married," she whispered.
"I know." He smiled. "Can you believe it's been ten years?"
"It feels like just yesterday."
"I know." he whispered and kissed her again.
"I wouldn't change the past years for anything."
"Me neither." He smiled softly. Addison grinned before she looked back down at her photo. "There's something else as well, you know."
"There is?" she placed the photo on the bed before she pulled the tissue paper back to reveal some new, lacy, Victoria's Secret underwear.
"I hope you like it."
Addison smiled as she held up the matching bra and thong set. "I love it. So this was why you were going through my underwear drawer the other day."
"Maybe." He smiled. She turned her head and softly kissed him on the lips before Haven bounced into their bedroom. She giggled as she looked at them and jumped onto their bed. Haven buried her face into Pete's chest and grasped his shirt. "What's up, baby?" Pete smiled and looked down at his daughter.
"Tell me story." She declared.
"What story?" He smiled.
"You marrying mummy."
"Oh that's a short story." He smiled.
"Tellll." Haven settled herself on Pete's lap and looked up at him.
"First or second time?"
"Both!" The three year old grinned.
"Okay then." Pete smiled and nodded. Addison put her underwear back in the box and closed it before she settled herself to hear the stories as well.
"It was ten years ago today." Pete began and ran his hands through his daughter's red curls. "When your mummy and I decided to spend the rest of our lives together."
"What did you do?" Haven asked innocently.
"Well." He smiled softly. "We were with friends, and we wanted to get married really quickly, so we went to the city hall, the big house were they marry people, and there we got married for the first time."
"Did mummy have a big pretty dress?"
"No, but the second time she did." Pete smiled. "She had the most beautiful dress in the whole wide world and everyone looked at her because she looked so gorgeous."
Haven's little eyes went wide. "I see?"
"Now?" Pete looked at his daughter before he glanced up at Addison.
"Yes." She nodded her head enthusiastically. "Mommy?" She turned her head and gave her mother her puppy dog eyes.
"It's in my closet." Addison looked at her husband. Pete nodded before he placed Haven on the bed and got up. Addison wrapped her arms around her daughter's waist and pulled her onto her lap.
"Your pretty dress mommy?" Haven gazed up at her.
"My pretty dress." Addison smiled and nodded.
Haven grinned and looked at her father. "Dresssy!" Haven squealed as Pete held up Addison's wedding dress. Pete smiled and watched his daughter. "I try on! I try on!"
"It's too big for you baby." He laughed softly. Haven pouted at her father. "I'm sorry."
"I want dressy."
"Daddy will buy you one for your birthday." He smiled softly.
"Yay!" She grinned and clapped her hands. Pete smiled and carried Addison's dress back to the closet.
"Do you want to wear a dress tonight?" Addison smiled down at her daughter.
"Yes!" She grinned.
"Okay, we'll pick one out later."
"Yay!" Haven smiled happily and hugged her mum. Addison hugged her back and placed a gentle kiss on Haven's forehead. Pete sat down on the bed and watched them. Addison smiled at him before she leaned closer for a kiss. Pete kissed her back softly and cupped her face with his hands.
"I love you so much." she whispered.
"I love you even more."
"Hmm, no you don't."
"Oh yes I do."
"No." She shook her head and grinned.
"Yes." He smirked and kissed her again.
"No." Addison laughed.
"Shush." Pete smiled against he lips.
"And love me?" Haven looked up at her parents kissing.
"Of course we love you, baby." Pete smiled down at his daughter. Haven grinned and jumped up for a hug. He smiled softly and wrapped his arms around her. Addison grinned and blew a raspberry on her daughter's cheek. Haven squealed and giggled loudly.
"I love you, Haven." Addison smiled.
"Love you too, mummy."
Addison kissed Haven's cheek before she looked at Pete happily. He smiled at her and wrapped his arms around them. She leaned her head against his shoulder as they sat together as a happy family.
