No one said anything to me for the rest of the day. I guess everyone was still on shock from this morning. My fears went away after a while and I continued to live my life normally.

I was walking back to my locker when I felt a sudden weight on my shoulders. I look up to see a grinning Cole. His hair was messed up and he had lipstick on his lips. I felt the familiar pang in my chest.

"Ready to go home?" He asks

"I have to go somewhere. You go on ahead" I say

"Nah it's fine. I'll take you there. Where are you going?"

"It's fine Cole. Go continue what you were doing with Ariana." I say

"Don't be stubborn Lexi."

I sighed and nodded my head. We got into his car and I told him the direction to the meet up place with Brian. When we got to the park, I immediately spotted Brian had dark brown hair and blue eyes. He had a great jawline too.

I got out of the car and ran to my brother. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist.

"BRIAN!!!!" I squeal happily

"Hahahahaha I take it you missed me?" He asks

"Of course!!! I had no one to tease" I smirk. He glares at me, but it soon turns into laughter.

"Put me down you big oaf!" I slap the back of his head. He chuckles and puts me down. He hugs me one more time and kisses my head.

"I missed you." He mumbles in my head

"You look amazing" he says giving me a twirl. I smile, not really believing him. We hear a sudden cough and we turned to see Cole standing behind me. His jaw was clenched and he looked a bit mad.

"So uh who's this?" Cole grits through his teeth

"Why should you know?" Brian smirks. I look at them back and forth.

"Because I'm her friend and I care about her." Cole says

"Friend? So she's single then? That's great" Brian's smirks grows even wider. Cole's knuckles have turned white. I was about to say something when I got cut off

"AUNTIE ALLIE!!!!"

An adorable little boy that looked just like his father came running to me. The little boy with the curly dark brown hair, deep blue eyes and a dimple on the right cheek hugged me tightly. I picked the little boy up and hug him back.

"Why hello there!! And who might you be?" I ask. Axel laughs and pokes my nose.

"Auntie Alliiee. It's me!! You're favorite baby boy!!!"

"Oh? But my favorite baby boy is a baby!! The boy I'm holding now is a big boy!! He's almost starting grade school!!" I exclaim

"So I'm not your favorite anymore?" he pouts

"Of course not!! You're still my favorite baby boy." I say

"Yay!!!"

I laugh and see Amanda approaching. She's smiling so widely. I put Axel down and hug Amanda.

"You're wearing the clothes I gave you!!! You look amazing!!! Gorgeous!!! Beautiful!!" She squeals

"Thank you. You look absolutely gorgeous as always." I say. She is very beautiful. She had ginger hair and fair skin. Her eyes were as green as emeralds and were absolutely gorgeous...but I liked a different kind of green.

"Ugh that's just cause of the makeup. Under all this make up I have huge bags and dark under eyes. This wedding this is so stressful" She whines

"But exciting." I point out

"Yes yes it is." She giggles

We laugh and catch up. Axel was playing with his toy car, but Brian and Cole were no where to be found. Oh shit...I left them when they were just getting heated. My eyes widen in realization but before I could get up to find them, the two came to sight.

"Oh god. Brian we have to go! We still have to meet up with the florist" Amanada says. Brian nods and picks up Axel. The parents say goodbye to their child and kiss him on the head. They both gave me a hug and gave me all of Axel's stuff. Brian went over to Cole, patted his shoulder and whispered something in his ear. Huh, maybe it's a boy thing.

Brian and Amanda walk to their car and they soon drive off. When they're out of sight, I feel a tug on my shirt. I look down to see Axel lookin up at me with sad teary eyes. I picked him up and he starts crying.

"No no no. Don't cry Axe...Auntie Allie is here. I'll take care of you" I coo in his ear

"I I I already miss Mommy and Daddy" He cries on my shoulder

"Hey...you'll see Mommy and Daddy soon. For now you got the next best thing, Me!!!!" I say. He chuckles and hugs me tighter

"Well I did miss my Auntie Allie." He mumbles

"Awww I missed you too bud."

I looked up and saw Cole smiling at me. He looked amazed and in awe. I smiled at him and he smiled back. He walked over to me and Axel looked up at him.

"Hey bud!!" Cole says

Axel grins and waves at him.

"Hello!!" He waves

The two got along really well. Axel wanted to learn how to play a sport and Cole offered to teach him Soccer. They started talking about soccer and I got bored easily. I told them that it was getting dark and we had to head home.

When we got home, Marie took an instant liking to Axel. Axel was constantly being pampered by Cole and Marie; I couldn't help but laugh. We ate dinner and I was about to give Axel a bath.

"I want Cole to do it." Axel says. Cole grins and picks him up. He puts Axel on his shoulders and they head upstairs. I watch them with a smile on my face.

Cole would be a great dad one day.

I went up to prepare the room. I knocked on my bathroom, just to check if the boys were in there, when I heard no one I went in to wash. After I was finished I got changed into a baby blue fluffy pajamas and a sweater. As I was brushing my hair, the boys came in the room laughing. Cole puts Axel on the bed.

"So are you ready to go to bed?" I chuckle

"I'm gonna go get ready for bed too. Nighty night kiddo." Cole says

"Night Cole!" Axel says. Cole grins at him and walks out.

I sit down next to Axel and he holds my hand.

"Auntie Allie? Can you sing me to sleep?" Axel asks me with big eyes

"I can't sing sweetie." I whisper to him

"But daddy says you can. I wanna hear it"

"Will you go to sleep if I do?"

He nods. I tuck him in and he watches me.

Je t'aime, je t'aime toujours

I am forever yours.

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams mon cher

You're always in my prayers.

Softly, sweetly,

wrapped up in heavens arms.

Sailing, soaring,

over the moon

gathering stardust

Be still, be safe, be sure

je t'aime, je t'aime toujours.

Wishing, praying,

all of your dreams come true.

Please remember

where you are, my heart is with you.

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams mon cher

Always in my prayers.

I am forever yours,

je t'aime, je t'aime toujours.

I looked at the sleeping little boy in my arms. He was sleeping softly. I slowly got out of bed, careful not to wake him up. I went out and bumped into Cole.

"Just how long have you been here?" I raise my eyebrows at him

"Long enough to hear your beautiful voice." He smiles

" I didn't know you could sing."

"I'm not that good." I say

"Are you kidding me?! You sound like an angel." He says. I blush and look down.

"Is there anywhere else I can sleep? Axel is taking up the whole bed." I chuckle

"Not really...but..." He trails off

"You could sleep with me?"

My heart is thumping in my chest. I all of a sudden feel nervous. I shake my head

"Nah it's fine. I think I'll take the couch." I say. He raises his eyebrows at me and shakes his head. He puts his hands on my waist and my heart is probably beating out of my chest. He then throws me on his shoulder and I squeal but cover my mouth.

"Cole!! Put me down!!" I say

"Nope! You're sleeping with me." He says

"Cole it's fine. You don't have to worry." I say. He ignores me and enters his room. He locks the door and puts me down. I feel dizzy already from bein held upside down. I stumble a bit and end up holding onto Cole for balance. I close my eyes for a while and when I open them I'm face to face with Cole's chest. I look up to see him smiling down at me.

"You go ahead. I'm gonna use the bathroom for a while." He does just that and I lay on the edge of the bed.

When he comes back out, he chuckles and shakes his head at me. He lays down and closes the lights.

"Goodnight Lexi." He mumbles

"Night Cole."

After a while, I turn to face him. I couldn't see much but I saw the outline of his face. I fought the urge to touch his face. I moved a bit closer to him and whispered

Je t'aime, je t'aime toujours

I am forever yours.

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams mon cher

You're always in my prayers.
