And after a really long time I decided to give you some closure on this story.
I had never known how much my father loved me. It's only when I was holding this little baby girl in my arms that I felt like just having a glimpse of how much he did. Now that my baby girl is here, I can't imagine how my mom could possible leave my father and I years ago. I feel like being far from her just for a few minutes is going to be the end of me.
"Isn't she beautiful?" Logan whispered entering the nursery where I was looking at Lora as she was sleeping. I had left the hospital with her a few days ago and I was too scared to leave her alone. Alicia said that it was completely normal for new parents to be like that. She said it took her a long time to even consider letting Wallace out of her sight at first.
"Yeah, she is."
"She's just like her mommy."
"It's still feels weird you know, to be a mom." I said. My definition of a mom wasn't really good since mine wasn't exactly a great one. So I needed a new definition of what a good mom was, to me that was Alicia. She is what I saw the most as exactly being a good mother. And seeing how Wallace turned out, I think I made pretty good choices.
"I know. I can't imagine I'm a father already. In a few months she'll be calling us mom and dad." He said putting his hands on my shoulder as we were both looking at that little miracle. We had changed the painting on the wall to match with her name. No Megan Lilly Echolls anymore. But just Lora Echolls. We thought we should make it as easy as possible for her, and not complicate her life with the thought of dead loved ones. "Come let her sleep. It's not like she'll be going anywhere any time soon." He said gently pulling me out of the nursery. We both went towards the living room and sat on the sofa. I was exhausted and I felt like I could sleep for days without waking up.
"How would have thought we would both ended up together and have Lora, while still studying."
"I would." Logan said. "Well not the part about Lora."
"Which part had you imagined then?"
"The part about you and me being back together. In love and living together."
"Really?" I sure can't imagine that, at all. When I left for my internship I thought I would make myself a new life. But instead the only thing that changed is, well me. Not that I changed much or anything.
"Yeah right. Remind me again why you were dating Parker ?"
"Oh you know, trying to make you jealous." That's not true. "I don't know. I tried to replace you by some other cute blond girl. But there not anyone likes you on this whole planet."
"Well, now there is someone a bit like me and a bit like you, just in the other room."
"That's true. She's a bit a marshmallow."
"How do you think things will be for us in the future?" I asked him. I was perfectly happy with him. I had never imagined I could even get this happy with him. Once I stopped trying to change him as much, I don't know, he kind of changed, and I did to. Once I stopped trying, everything came right just by itself. That, and also because I actually started to trust Logan more. But that's because he's taking his responsibilities now.
"I see you having a private detective office, coming home after a long day of work and making me dinner, massaging my feet and taking care of Lora all at the same time…" A good punch in the stomach made him change his version. "You come home after a long day of work. Me doing I don't know what. Maybe I could try and give surf lessons or something like that. What do you think? The son of Aaron Echolls and Lynn Echolls opening a surfing school near here?"
"I think that it could be a pretty good idea."
"Yeah, and I does not work I could just be a stay at home father while my wife is taking care of everything. I would raise Lora."
"Not sure that's a good idea. You raise Lora all by yourself?"
"I'm sure together we'll managed to do it right. And if not, we can always put her in front of your father's house and let him raise her. He did kind of a good job on you."
"Yeah, that's sound like a good plan. Maybe we should call him and ask him to take care of her. I'm exhausted!"
"I know! How can something that tiny make so much noise?" My eyes closed even if I did my best to keep them open.
"She's just like us. She has a big mouth."
"And still I love her, and I love her mommy too." Logan said, putting his arms around me. My head resting on his chest, I could feel him breath and it made me even more tired.
"I love you too Logan. I love you too." And right there, I knew everything would turn just find for us. Maybe we would even manage to have quite a normal life, but I wasn't counting too much on that. We both fell asleep in the sofa knowing that soon enough our epic love would wake us, inside the nursery.
I know this is a rather short chapter and that I haven't updated since a very long time. But to me the story felt like if already was finished. With Lora there, it already seemed like a good end. But I thought I would give you guys a more decent one and really close the story. I hope you liked reading this story and that it was as much fun for you guys as it was for me. Don't forget to review!
