A/N: So that's it! Thank you to everyone who has reviewed I appreciate it more than you even know. I think this is going to be it as I'm going to hang up my writing my hat (for now at least). I've been very busy and it's hard to update as often and I hate to leave you all hanging more than a few days. I've loved writing these AJPunk stories and there's plenty for you all to look back on and read. Thank you all again for being awesome and following/supporting all of my stories over these past few years. I'm on Twitter ( Broe929) if you guys want to drop by and say hi! Thank you all so much again for reading my crazy stories and letting me share them with you all. (Also don't be too upset because who knows if I'll randomly pop back up with a random story or some sort of plot pops into my head.) :)


Epilogue


Ten years later…

"Phil!" AJ yelled walking out of the huge house in New Jersey that she and Phil purchased.

"What?" two voices asked.

She looked over and saw her husband and her almost ten year old soon on the front lawn fixing a bicycle.

"I'm sorry I meant both Phil's." She smirked. "The party is going to be starting soon so come inside and start getting ready." She reminded them.

"But mom my bike wheel feel off." Young Phil whined. "Dad is fixing it."

"Yes I know and we can fix it after the party but today is about your sister it is her birthday and she's asking for you both." AJ said to him.

"She's so annoying." Phil said putting his baseball hat back on and stomping towards his mother.

"Hey be nice." Punk warned his son who really had Punk's attitude. "It's her birthday and she loves you more than anything."

"She's always following me around though." Little Phil complained.

"You need to clean up first upstairs." AJ told him.

"Yes mom." Phil said gliding past her and inside the large house.

"You need to clean up too." She warned her husband as he approached her.

"Yea, yea I will." He said giving her a kiss.

"Also I need you to go pick up her cake." AJ told him and he nodded.

"Will do." Punk said following his wife inside.

"And if you want to take Robert with you because you know how much he loves car rides I'd appreciate that." She said to Punk who looked towards his youngest son who was only ten months old in his playpen.

"Are you giving mommy a hard time again?" Punk asked the baby who was named after AJ's brother.

"He wants me to hold him the entire day and I have too much to do." AJ said to him.

"Got it. I'll take him with him." Punk promised her.

"I just need to finish prepping the food." AJ said to him.

"I said it's fine I'll hang with Robbie." Punk said smiling towards his son.

"Can I come? Can I come? Can I come?" a little girls asked running towards her father. She was wearing a pink puffy princess dress (she picked it out all by herself for her big sixth birthday party).

"It's your party princess." Punk reminded her scooping her up. "People are coming here to see you so you need to be here."

"But I want Robbie here too." She sniffled.

"I'll bring him back with me." Punk laughed.

"Where's Phillip?" Isabelle asked her parents.

"He's upstairs getting ready." AJ said as Punk put her down.

"I can't wait for my party!" she said happily. "And all of my presents!"

"You'll remember to thank everyone?" AJ asked her daughter who nodded.

"I will mommy." She promised her.

"You'll also remember that throwing food isn't allowed?" Punk asked nervously. At Phillips' birthday last year him and his sister got into a huge food fight.

"Food goes in your mouth and not in your brothers face." Isabelle recited.

"Good girl." Punk grinned.

"Hey!" Dean shouted walking in the front door holding a huge box wrapped in bright pink birthday paper.

"Uncle Dean!" Isabelle cheered running to him.

"Hey happy birthday squirt." Dean said putting the box down and giving her a big hug.

"Is that for me?" Isabelle asked with wide eyes looking at the box.

"Is it anyone else's birthday?" Dean asked her and she shook her head 'no'. "Then I guess that's yours."

"Presents get open after cake." AJ reminded Isabelle who was ready to rip the paper off of the present right now. "Did you forget someone?" she asked Dean who looked confused then ran to the door and opened it for his wife who was slowly making her way inside.

"Hi sorry, I move slower these days." She said with a hand on her big baby bump.

"Oh Bales." AJ laughed giving her a hug. "Uncomfortable?"

"Yes." She said quickly but still always smiling and positive. "But I have three more weeks. I can survive three more weeks."

"Hi Auntie Bayley!" Isabelle greeted.

"Hi honey I'd kneel down and hug you but I won't get back up. Happy Birthday!" she said to the little girl who hugged her baby belly instead.

"Uncle Dean!" Phillip yelled running down the large staircase.

"Hey kid." Dean said as he did his secret handshake with AJ's first born.

"Phillip you can't wear that to the party." AJ sighed seeing him wearing his old, dirty and ripped Marvel t-shirt.

"Why not?" he asked his mother.

"Because it's dirty and it looks bad." Punk answered for her.

"Yea you can't come to my party if you stink." Isabelle warned her brother.

"I don't want to be at your birthday party at all you little brat." Phillip said to him.

"Then don't come!" Isabelle huffed placing her hands on her hips.

"No fighting." Punk warned them. "You go upstairs and changed and you be nice to your brother."

"He started it." Isabelle frowned folding her arms.

"You're not the baby anymore Isabelle so stop acting like one." Phillips said sticking his tongue out at his sister. Isabelle responded by pinching her brothers arm and then ran away as he chased her causing Robbie to get upset and start to cry.

"Looking forward to this?" AJ teased Bayley and Dean.

"I think they're great." Dean said seriously. "That was a brutal pinch by the way I bet you taught her that." He said to AJ who rolled her eyes as she reached to grab Robert.

"Stop!" Punk yelled chasing after the other two.

"She pinched me!" Phillip yelled as he almost caught his sister but Punk quickly grabbed her and held her high up so Phillip couldn't reach her.

"Upstairs and changed now." Punk warned his son who stomped up the stairs. "What did we tell you about pinching?"

"Not to do it." She said as Punk put her back down.

"When you two fight you upset your brother." Punk said referring to Robbie.

"Sorry Robbie!" Isabelle frowned.

"Come on take Aunt Bayley outside and show where she can sit the entire time." Bayley smiled reaching for Isabelle's hand.

"Mommy put out a special seat for you." Isabelle informed her aunt.

"Thank you." She mouthed to AJ.

"Here give me this one." Dean said reaching for a crying Robbie who stopped crying in Dean's arms immediately then followed Bayley and Isabelle.

"Two whole seconds of silence." Punk noted with a grin.

"Silence? What's that?" she asked with a laugh as he leaned down and kissed her.

"Help me clean off." He said grabbing her wrist and pulling her up the stairs.

"Phil we can't." she laughed. "People are going to be arriving and we have three very awake children."

"Who are all preoccupied." He reminded her. "How often does that happen?"

"Never." She said as she gave in let him pull her up the stairs and into their bedroom….


Later that night the guests were gone which included AJ's family, Paul, neighbors and their kids and a few people from Marvel where now only Punk worked. The large house almost seemed small with the amount of people that flooded in for the party and the only people left where Dean, Bayley and Paul.

Punk sat with AJ on his lap as she rested her exhausted head against his shoulder as the moon shinned down reflecting beautifully against the pool. AJ had been the best mom and Punk made sure to remind her of that daily. She gave up working after Isabelle was born and was content being home with her children. Punk envied her and wanted to be home with his family but Paul was actually really great and Punk worked from home at least twice a week.

"I'm so tired." She said to Punk. "And I still have to clean."

"We'll clean tomorrow." He said to her. "You need sleep."

"Do you think Isabelle liked her party?" she asked Punk as she looked over to Isabelle who was sitting with Phillip as Paul read them a comic in dramatic voices.

"I think she had a blast you did a fantastic job." He said to her.

"See they like each other." AJ smirked nodding towards her two children who were getting along well as Paul read to them.

"They'll be fine." Punk said with ease. "You remember what Phillip did when the little boy three houses down ripped the head off of Isabelle's Barbie."

"Yea I just wish Phillip had broken something cheaper of his than his bike." AJ said with a laugh remembering that Phillip marched right over and popped the tires on the boy's bike and knocked it down and jumped on it. Phil and April had to pay for a new bike.

"We're doing a good job with them." Punk assured her as he moved his head to check on Robbie who was now being held as he slept by Bayley. Robbie was pretty spoiled and would only fall asleep when someone was holding him.

"You want more?" she asked him.

"Do you?" he asked with a laugh.

"Maybe one." She said simply. "Four is a good number."

"It is." Punk agreed.

"So you'd be ok with just one more?" she asked him.

"Yea what's one more?" he laughed and AJ picked up her head and looked at him. "What?"

"I'm really glad you said that." She said to him.

"You're….right now?" he asked her and she nodded. "Another one?" and she nodded again. "A fourth one inside of you as we speak?" he asked slowly.

"I found out last night." She said to him.

"Holy shit." He said stunned. "So soon after Robbie?"

"Looks that way." She laughed and he smiled.

"Another kid." He said with a happy chuckle.

"You're going to be a daddy again." She whispered and he kissed her.

"Thank you." He said pulling away from the kiss and she rested her forehead against his. "You keep giving me kids and such a happy life."

"I was going to say the exact same thing to you. It's kind of a two person deal." She teased kissing him again.

"Stop you two!" Dean yelled at them causing them to pull apart.

"Yea don't you two have enough kids now?" Paul laughed.

"They do!" Phillip was the first to say as he grabbed Isabelle's hand and helped her stand up from the grass that she was sitting in.

"Hey." AJ frowned. "There's never enough."

"Phillip can you help me carry my presents to my room? I'm sleepy." Isabelle asked rubbing her eyes.

"Sure brat." Phillip said picking up a few of the many items she had gotten.

"Just leave the rest I'll bring them up." Punk said to his son as he passed them.

"Thank you Phillip I love you." Isabelle yawned following her brother who she absolutely idolized.

"Phillip is going to hate it." AJ whispered to Punk.

"He'll get over it." Punk said to her. "He didn't like the idea of Isabelle or Robbie either."

"I think it's a boy so that should make him feel better." AJ said as Punk placed his hand over her still flat stomach.

"Yea? Another boy? You and Izzie are going to be so outnumbered." He laughed.

"Don't remind me." She sighed then let out a small laugh. "I want a dog and it has to be a girl."

"How about we focus on baby number 4 than worry about a dog." He teased.

"He's crying and wants you." Dean said walking out with Robbie who was crying and the minute he was in AJ's arms he stopped crying.

"He needs to be changed." She said standing up with Robbie in her arms.

"Let me do it." He offered taking his son. "Just relax because you've been on your feet too much today."

"This is why I waited until after the party to tell you." She said. Punk always got a little crazy when she would be pregnant. He would let her do nothing.

"And you had your day of fun so now you can go upstairs and kiss Phillip and Isabelle goodnight while I get Robbie ready for bed then go to bed yourself." He said to her sternly. "Scoot." He said tapping her butt and she blushed.

"You know how I get when I'm pregnant." She reminded him arching a brow and he grinned.

"The best part of pregnancy if you ask me." He said seriously. "They're so tired they'll all be asleep before you know it." He whispered kissing her lips quickly.


After saying goodbye to Dean, Bayley and Paul AJ headed upstairs and peeked into Isabelle's room first to make sure she was sleeping and what she saw made her heart melt.

"And then the Princess saved by the strong brave Prince and they lived happily ever after." Phillip recited reading Isabelle one of her favorite books.

"Thanks Phillip you read the story much better than mommy and daddy." Isabelle said and Phillip kissed the top of her head.

"Happy Birthday Izzie." He said making sure she was tucked in. "I love you." He whispered.

"That was very sweet." AJ said as Phillip walked out the door.

"You can't tell anyone you saw me do that." He warned his mother who just laughed.

"Don't worry I won't tell anyone that you love your little sister." She teased. "But you have to give me a hug and a kiss first."

"Fine." He said giving her a hug and kissing her cheek.

"You're a great big brother." She told him proudly. "You make me and your dad so proud."

"Thanks I mean Izzie and Robbie are alright." He said with a soft smile. "Can I stay up and play my video game?"

"For an extra hour sure." She said feeling generous.

"You're the best mom ever!" he said happily then ran down to his room.

"Good night mommy." Isabelle said from her bed and AJ leaned down and kissed her head. "Thank you for my party it was my favorite party ever."

"Good baby I'm glad you liked it." AJ grinned.

"I'm not a baby anymore mommy, remember?" she complained.

"Oh that's right." AJ said to her and that's when Punk walked in with a book.

"Finally daddy I thought I'd fall asleep without my bedtime story." Isabelle said dramatically.

"Would I forget you ever?" Punk asked just as dramatically.

"But didn't Phillip-" AJ started.

"Shh mommy I like two stories." Isabelle whispered.

"Of course you do." She laughed then passed Punk.

Next door was Robbie's nursery and he was sleeping soundly in his superhero themed nursery. His name was fitting since he did resemble her brother very much. She pulled up a blanket slightly to make sure he wouldn't get cold and kissed his head very gently careful not to wake him.

"Mom." Phillip whispered from the doorway.

"Yea?" she asked.

"I need your help beating this level in my batman game." He admitted almost shamefully.

"You came to the right person." She said almost smugly tiptoeing out of Robbie's room and turning out the light.


Almost two hours later after cleaning some of the party up Punk crawled into bed right next to AJ who was still wide-awake and waiting for him.

"I just did the final bed checks- all three are sound asleep in their rooms, doors and windows are locked and lights are off." He said to her.

"Excellent finally some us time?" she asked him.

"I think we get plenty of 'us' time or else my fourth kid wouldn't be growing in there." He said lightly poking her stomach.

"I'm spoiled." She admitted with a smirk. "It's your fault."

"It is my fault but I wouldn't have it any other way." He agreed removing his t-shirt and carefully rolling on top of her without placing weight on her. He was just about to kiss her but pulled away and she opened her eyes to see what the hold up was. "We're good at four though right? If we have anymore we're going to need a bigger place and bus to travel in."

"We could be like the Brady bunch!" she joked and he glared at her. "We can stop at four if you don't mind…." She said as her hand grazed down his stomach then cupped his bulge in his pants. "Snip snipping."

"Me? Snipping?" he asked with horrified eyes. "Fuck it I'll get us a bus."

"That's what I thought." She laughed as he reached down to finally kiss her.

Punk woke up at around two in the morning mostly because he usually woke up in the middle of the night every night it was like a natural alarm clock for him. He reached over and put on his boxers and t-shirt and checked on all three of his children to make sure they were all still sleeping, breathing and safely inside which they were. When he walked back into his bedroom he smiled at his beautiful wife who fell asleep with a smile on her face. He was more excited for baby number four than he had thought. He never imagined he'd be the guy coaching his son's hockey team, the dad who took his daughter to her dance recitals and proudly took the midnight feedings for his youngest son. Punk truly loved doing the normal 'dad things' with his children and looked forward to all of those tasks every week.

He owed everything he had in his life to AJ who he only fell more in love with everyday. Punk got back into the bed and the minute he did AJ sensed him and she rolled over and draped her arm over his body and curled against him. He truly had the best life in the world.
