Axel Scott finished getting dressed and grabbed his car keys off one of the end tables near the bed. And quietly made his way out of his bedroom through the hallway and outside.

Lucas and Brooke were enjoying the quiet of having the kitchen to themselves before their kids came down for breakfast.

Brooke kissed him back.
"We became the power couple we envisioned. With our family very much in tact loved and safe." She replied.
