1 YEAR LATER

Ally's POV

My hands automatically block my eyes from the bright sun when I slide the doors in the back of my home. When my eyes adjust to the light, I take out my sunscreen and rub it on my flat tummy that I have missed so much. I'm lucky to have no stretchmarks and you can't even tell I was carrying two lives inside of me 5 months ago.

I hear my husband's footsteps come down the stairs and a smile spreads across my face when he comes into view with our two adorable blonde haired twins in each arm. Alex and Ava.

"Look guys. It's your mommy." Austin says walking up to me as I smile pinching each of their cheeks.

"Yes, it's your mommy who has been waiting here forever because your daddy continued to take a long time." I said eyeing him as he chuckled a little.

"Hey, I am not to blame for this one. Ava would try to fight our way out of every swim suit I put her in. Our daughter is a feisty one. She gets it from you." He said as I shake my head with a smile taking my baby girl in my own hands.

I look at Austin who checks me out in my pink swimsuit but I snap my fingers catching his attention again as he pushes Alex up against his chest to balance him who just babbles a lot. "Blaming your own child for your faults." I said with a jokingly smirk. "I am not. I'm telling you, she's a wild one." He defended himself kissing me and Ava's cheek.

Austin then takes my hand in his and we head out our backdoor that leads to our backyard that contains a great sized pool.

"Babe, over here." I said walking over to some of the beach chairs I ordered online. He followed me and sat next to me as we held the babies up in front of us as we started to apply sunscreen on their bodies.

We smile as Alex and Ava both giggle in each of our hands. "Five months old and I still can't get enough of your cuteness!" I say laying back while kissing Ava's cheeks. "Give me my son too." I say as Austin chuckles switching them. I kiss Alex's adorable self as well and he babbles and laughs into my neck and I smile happy with content.

Austin smiles at me and the kids. "They are amazing. I can't believe we created them." He said still amazed as I looked over at him. "I mean it feels like yesterday, I just met you and now we're married with twins. I love you. And I love them so much, babe. I look at them and they come number one in my life. I've never felt so protective over someone since I've met you." He said as I listened sitting up. "My love for them...sometimes it becomes so overwhelming...because it's so powerful." He told me as I placed one of my hands on his knee as I held Alex with the other. "It's because you're a parent now, Austin. Your kids are suppose to be number one in your life and the love you have for them are gonna be like no other. My mama would always tell me that when I was a kid. She said 'You'll never understand how I feel until you're a parent yourself one day'." I repeated as he smiled a little looking at Ava and kissing her cheek before standing up as Ava grips her daddy's chest.

Austin rubs her back and then faces me. "Come on. Let's get in the pool." He said as I stood up and we both put on the baby floats on Alex and Ava so they could float above the water.

Austin and I take our babies into the water slowly and they shiver a little at the coldness and we keep them each close to our chest until it warms up for them a bit. When it does, we slowly separate them from us but never let go.

Soon, Alex begins flapping his tiny arms into the water splashing Ava and I in the face causing Ava to giggle and she begins to copy her brother. "Baaa!" Ava babbles with giggles as Austin and I laugh at the intense baby water fight we were witnessing.

"Okay, you guys asked for it." I said hitting the water and splashing a big amount of water on Austin and some on Alex. Austin dramatically gasp and looked at me like he was gonna get me bad. I smirk to show him I'm not scared. He looks at me with a devious smile and places Alex on his shoulders which worried me a bit because him and his sister are so freaking tiny but it looks like he's got a good hold on him.

Austin holds Alex steady with one hand because he's so freaking strong and uses the other arm to splash the biggest splash I've ever felt in my life towards me as my hair gets soaking wet. I gasp but an actual real one which causes Ava to stare at me blankly before laughing. Which causes Austin to join in and Alex joins his father and sister and I'm left just shaking my head at them before joining in the laugh fest as well.

I look around at the family Austin and I have built and I couldn't be happier. "I love you." I say to Alex and Ava kissing both their lips quickly as they giggle. "Daddy loves you too." Austin says repeating what I did before we continued to play around for another half an hour before getting out.

I held Alex while Austin held Ava and we took them inside. We put them both in separate towels and I asked Austin to take them upstairs and put them in their bath while I make lunch for the day.

"Babe, you already made breakfast this morning. Let me do this one." He said nicely as I put my hands on my hips.

"You're not just saying this because you don't feel like being on bath duty are you?" I ask with an amused smile as he chuckled.

"No. Believe it or not, some dads actually like being around their kids." He said as I smiled, leaning up and placing a soft kiss on his lips before pulling away and taking Ava out his hands.

"Thank you baby." I said sweetly as he nodded and I carried the twins up the stairs to the bathroom starting their bath.

Austin's POV

I finish making lunch which includes nice sandwiches for Ally and I and applesauce for the twins with little juice packets. I told Ally to come down when she was ready. I set the table and sit down playing a game on my phone until she comes down.

"Sorry it took a while. I put them in new outfits and then Ava decided to take a number 2 so I had to change her diaper." Ally said as I made a jokingly gross face. "Babe, that's not exactly something you wanna share at the kitchen table." I said as she chuckled a little. "Sorry." She said placing Alex and Ava in their high chairs as I smile while they go straight to their food.

Ally looks at the food and sits across from me. "This is nice. Thanks baby." She says with a smile. "It's just sandwiches. No big deal." I said with a shrug of the shoulders. "It doesn't matter. Any gesture means a lot coming from you handsome." She says with a wink and I smirk leaning into Alex side. "I think she has a crush on me buddy." I whisper into Alex's ear as he giggles even though he has no idea what I said. "Shut up." Ally says playfully rolling her eyes taking a bite of the sandwich and I do the same.

When we finish up lunch, we put the dishes in the sink and Ally offers to clean the dishes since I made lunch and I gladly accept taking Alex and Ava into the living room and putting on their favorite cartoons which seems to keep them plenty entertained.

I go back in the kitchen where I see my wife cleaning the dishes and I smile coming up from behind her and wrapping my arms around her which causes her to jump at first.

"Oh, I'm sorry babe. I didn't mean to scare you." I apologize.

"It's okay." She says with a little laugh.

"I'm jumpy. Nothing new." She says wiping a plate with a soapy rag.

"I love you." I said leaving soft kisses on her neck as she smiles.

"I know. I love you too." She said turning her face a bit and kissing me.

When she pulls away, I kiss her again and she tries to fight it a little to get back to cleaning the dishes but gives in with a satisfied sigh as our lips collide together in a smooth and passionate transaction.

When we do finally pull away, we lean against each others forehead, a little out of breath and eyes closed. "3 years later and you still are able to make me swoon Austin Moon." She said lowly causing a little smile on my face.

I open my eyes and place one of my hands on her cheeks which makes her open her eyes and her long eyelashes flutter at me. "3 years later and you still make my heart beat faster than lightning Ally Moon." I replied as she smiled leaning in and kissing one last time before facing the sink again and continued to clean.

"So, I was thinking if you wanted to visit your parents today and my mama?" Ally asked as I repeatedly laid kisses on her neck and cheek. "Yeah, I think that sounds great. Why don't we head out when you're done here?" I ask as she nods finishing up the last touches of the dishes.

"Alright, let's go." She said drying her hands and then heading into the living room and picking up Alex while I picked up Ava and their baby bags just in case we needed them on the road.

We put them in the car seat and I began to drive. We decided in the car we would visit my parent's first and then head over to Ally's mom house. It takes about a good 20 minute drive until we arrive in front of my parent's house.

"I really hope they're not mad we came over unexpected." Ally said getting out the car the same time as me. "I doubt it. They're the ones saying to come over all the time." I reassure her as I open the back door and taking Ava out the car seat as Ally gets Alex and we bring the bags as well.

We go up to the door and Ally knocks. We hear a little moving around and I hear a faint voice say 'I'll get it.' A couple seconds later, the door opens showing Ally's mother face which confuses us but we smile because it's a nice surprise. "Guys! What are you doing here?" She asked surprised but happy and leaning in and hugging the both of us before pinching the little one's cheeks.

We both come in. "Mom, I should be asking you that. We came to visit Mike and Mimi and then we were gonna be on our way to your place, but I guess this saves gas." Ally said as Penny chuckled. "Yeah, Mimi invited me over for some tea and we all were just watching some reruns of Friends." She told us as we nodded walking into the living room. "Look, who's here." Penny said as my mom and dad turned our way from the TV and then huge smiles spread across their face as they stood up.

"Sweetie!" My mom says running over to me and hugging me as Ally smiled as my dad went over to her and hugged her.

"Hi, mom. Dad." I said going over to him and hugging him as we pat each others back. We haven't seen them in a couple weeks because Ally and I have been busy with both our high powered jobs and taking care of the kids.

"Oh, it's so nice to see you two." My mom said smiling at the both of us before leaning down to Ava in my hands.

"And how are you sweetie?" She asked in a baby voice as Ava just kicked her feet in the air and giggled at the attention she was receiving.

"She's fine. Just a little troublemaker as all." I say with a smirk kissing her cheek as she leans on my chest a little tired. "Leave her alone." Ally said with an amused smile as Alex leaned against her chest as well looking tired also.

"It's been a while since we've seen you. Mind if we sit?" Penny asked.

"Of course not." I said as we all head into the living room and sit down.

"God, they are so cute." Penny said looking at the twins.

"I'll never forget the day you gave birth to them in the hospital." Mimi said to Ally as I smiled at the memory of the best day of my life.

"Yeah, me neither. You were a trooper Ally. I could never pop two things out of me." My dad said causing us all to laugh.

"Thanks." She said with a chuckle.

"It was a lot of work, but..." She said looking down at a now sleeping Alex and over to a sleeping Ava in my arms. "I'd do it all over again for them." She said truthfully as I smiled because of the amazing mother she is.

"You make amazing parents. I'm so proud of you two." My mom says causing us to flash her a thank you smile.

"So, how have you three been?" I ask starting to rock Ava in my arms.

"Your mother and I are fine. We've been thinking about taking a vacation in a couple of months." My dad said as I raised my eyebrows.

"Really? That sounds nice. You have any idea where?" Ally asked nicely.

"We were thinking the Bahamas. We'll be retiring in a few weeks and I think a vacation is long overdue." My mom added.

"I agree, ma. You both deserve it." I told them as they smiled.

"I was thinking of a vacation as well. I think I'm gonna visit the Grand Canyon." Ally's mom said as she looked at her surprised.

"Mom, are you sure about that? It seems like a pretty risky vacation. Especially by yourself." Ally said concerned leaning towards her mother.

"Ally, I'll be fine. I always wanted to go but your father never was up for it, but he always said that if I really wanted too, I could do it by myself because I was strong and capable. I knew it of course, but your dad was my other half and I didn't want to do anything without him." She said with a small smile as Ally placed her hand on her mother's with a sad sympathetic smile as did my mom. "I figured since he's gone, why not do what I always wanted." She finished finally looking up to her and Ally smiled before hugging her. "I think it's a wonderful idea, mama." She said supportive before pulling away.

"So, what do you two lovebirds have planned for the rest of the day considering it's your day off." My mom asked facing us again. Ally and I look at each other before facing them with a shrug. "We were just gonna spend the day with the kids. You know, normal day." I responded.

They looked at us confused. "When is the last time you two have went on a date?" My dad asked as Ally and I become dumbfounded not actually remembering. "Oh my gosh, you two. You've been so busy with your jobs and taking care of the babies that you barely have time for each other." My mom said worried as we laughed a little. v

"Mrs. Moon, I assure you that your son and I are fine. Sure, it's a little difficult having some quality time but we're still happy and in love. I promise you that." Ally said with a smile and leaning in and kissing me which I gladly return it.

"That's sweet and all, and I believe you but that's not enough. Believe or not, even parents need alone time." My mom said.

"Mom!" I said embarrassed as my cheeks flushed red as she, my dad and Ally's mom laughed.

"Oh, Austin I'm not talking about that! But just enjoying each others company by yourselves. Get your mind out the gutter." She said causing my wife to chuckle.

"Why don't we watch the kids?" My mom offers.

"What?" I say.

"Yeah, I think we should. I haven't seen my grand kids in a while and I want them to spend some time with their grandpa." My dad said with a smile looking at them.

I look at Ally and she shrugs. "Are you sure?" I ask. "Yeah, of course. You two go and spend the day with each other. Take a break from being amazing parents so you can be an amazing couple as well." Penny says as we smile grateful.

I stand up with a sleeping Ava and softly hand her over to my dad. He takes her softly and rocks her as she sleeps peacefully against his chest. "Here you go, ma." Ally said handing Alex to her mother as my mom just smiles in between both. "They are so precious." She said in a in love voice as I smile looking at my adorable kids. "Their baby bag is by the front door." Ally informs them as they nod. "We really appreciate this by the way. These little ones mean the world to us." Penny said as we nodded. "Of course. You all are amazing grandparents." Ally said before kissing Alex and Ava's forehead. "I love you." She tells them as I reach down and kiss both of their cheeks. "I love you too." I say to them before patting my dad's back and hugging my mom and Penny goodbye as Ally hugs her mother and my parents.

"Just call us when it's time to pick them up." I tell them.

"Sure thing." My dad said as they all turned their attention to the babies as I took Ally's hand leaving out the front door.

Ally's POV

When Austin and I get in the car, I get an idea but I decide to keep it to myself but of course my husband knows when something is on my mind. He glances over at me for a second before looking back at the road. "What is it, Dawson?" He asked as I raised my eyebrows amused. "Dawson? I haven't been Dawson in a year." I replied as he chuckled a bit. "I know. I just missed calling you that. But I love you as a Moon better." He said holding my hand and kissing it gently making me smile.

"So, what's on your mind love?" Austin asked me as I shake my head.

"Nothing. Forget it. This is our day." I said which seemed to confuse him.

"Okay, Ally Marie Moon. What is up with you?" He asked again in a more intimidating tone even though it seemed like he could never be upset with me.

I sigh before caving in. "I was just thinking about if we made a quick trip to D.C. To visit Dez and Holly. You know...since it's been three months since the last time we've had time to see them in person. But it's our day! Forget it." I said with my old teenage babbling habits as he chuckled. "Babe. I actually think that's a great idea." He replied shocking me.

"Seriously? Because I know we're suppose to use this time with just each other but I-"

"Really miss our friends." He finished as I smiled because of how well he knew me. He smiled holding one of my hands.

"I do too. So, why not go? It's only a 2 hour flight and we'll be back with still enough time for me to have you all by myself." He said as I nodded with a smirk leaving a soft kiss on his neck.

"I love you so much." I said kissing his palm as he turned a corner as I thought about something. "Wait, babe what about the flight? We don't have your private jet anymore like when you were President. How do we even know there is a Miami flight to D.C right now?" I asked concerned. "Babe, their always are." He said confidently turning the car down another road heading to the airport.

When we arrive to the airport, it turns out my hubby was right and he bought our tickets right then and there. We boarded the flight within an hour and we had a nice flight talking about the memories we had in the White House and how different but amazing things are now. I laugh at something hilarious Austin says and an old man shushes us and we laugh anyway having the time of our lives ending it with a passionate kiss of course because of how insanely in love we are.

Austin Moon. My husband. The father of my kids. The love of my life. Everything I ever wanted all rolled into one. I'll love him forever and always.

The flight ends after 2 hours of flying and we get off and grab a cab to take us to Dez and Holly's house. I know what you're thinking. How do you even know they're home? Well, let's just say that they gave us their work schedules just in case we ever wanted to come out here unexpected or for a surprise.

The cab driver takes us to their nice home they bought shortly together after we moved. Since having their son, they wanted to move out of Dez's apartment.

Austin and I get out after paying the man and walking up the driveway to the front door. He knocks on the door as I get butterflies missing my friends badly, especially Holly. The door opens revealing one of my best friends in the world and we both squeal at the same time and running into each others arms.

"Ally!" She said into my neck so happy as I smiled widely with my eyes closed overwhelmed with happiness. I haven't seen my girl in a couple of months because of how busy I've been and this is so long overdue. "I missed you so much Hols. You have no idea." I responded as we pulled away with both breathtaking smiles. "I'm pretty sure I do." She replied.

"Wow. I feel completely missed." Austin said sarcastically causing Holly to smile going over to him.

"Hi, Austin. I missed you too, of course." She said hugging him as he smiled.

"You too, Hols." He said as they pulled away and I went over to her.

"Holly." I said placing my hand on her arm as she turns around as I catch her attention. "I wanted to say sorry for you loss. Helen Reese...she was an icon, and I know what she meant to you. I'm sorry we couldn't make the funeral." I said with a sad smile as she nodded and Austin rubbed her back. "It's okay. I mean, it broke my heart because she died from lung cancer from smoking so much and you know for so long I tried to get her to quit, but she wouldn't budge. I was sad for a long while but Dez was there as he always is and then I was sent this." She told us handling me an envelope as I begin to open it.

"Was is it?" I ask pulling out a paper.

"Helen's Will." She said as Austin and I looked at her in surprise.

"Why would you have it?" Austin asked confused.

"Because I'm in it." She revealed.

"Wait, seriously?" I asked shocked.

"Yeah. She wrote me a letter apologizing for how insensitive she was about not smoking. She said she didn't listen to me or stop because she already knew about her lung cancer and knew she was gonna die eventually anyway, so she lived while she could. She told me how much I meant to her and that I was the daughter she never knew she wanted. She told me she loved me like if she had her own and saw my full potential as a writer and she wouldn't let it go to waste even if she was in her grave. So..." She trailed off as Austin and I look at her and she smiles widely. "You are looking at the new CEO of Life Magazine." She announced as Austin and I's mouth dropped open in shock.

"Oh my god, Holly!" I scream excited running and hugging her as she laughs hugging me back.

"I know! I know!" She said with a smile as we pull away and Austin hugs her tightly excited for her as well.

"So, Helen just wrote you in her Will that she wanted you to take her place as CEO?" Austin asked her still amazed at the news. "Yeah. She did. I was just as shocked as you guys when I saw it. I had to read it a hundred times over to accept that it was real. I guess she really saw something in me." Holly said with a warm heart. "She did. The same thing we all did." I told her with a hand on her shoulder as she smiled thankful.

"We're so proud of you, Hols. You deserve it more than anyone." Austin said truthfully and meaningful with a sweet smile. "That means a lot coming from you." She said before shaking her head to herself. "God, do you guys ever think about how much our lives have changed? You were the President married to another woman and you were a lawyer only committed to your job until you both met each other. You fell in love, got married, and had twins. I use to be this nice but helpless girl who didn't know where life was heading her and now I'm married to the man of my dreams with a beautiful baby boy. It's crazy, right?" She asked looking at us as we smile a little. "Yeah, it is. That's our lives, I guess. I wouldn't change it for anything though." I responded as they both nodded agreeing before Austin moved forward.

"Speaking of, where is the little man and my best friend? Isn't this his day off?" Austin asked curiously as she was about to respond but got interrupted.

"Right here." We hear from the staircase to turn around to see Dez coming down the steps with his and Holly's son, Dylan. He's five months just like Austin and I's twins. They were born in the same month, just not the same day.

We both smile widely and Dez passes Dylan to Holly as he runs over to Austin and they have the best bromance hug I have ever seen in my life. Holly and I look at each other and awe which they laugh at while continuing to hug. "I missed you so much, man." Austin said meaningful. "You too dude. You too." Dez replied taking him in and patting his back before they pulled away.

Holly came over to me with Dylan in her hands. "How is my godson? Still adorable I see." I say talking to him as she smiles. "You want to hold him?" She offered as I smiled with a nod of the head.

She gently passes him off to me as he giggles touching my face and I automatically start missing my own babies. That's what happens when you spend every single moment with them except for when you're at work. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love them too much.

"You are too precious." I said as Dez and Austin come over after talking to each other for a while. "Als, hey. I missed ya." Dez said kissing me on the cheek since he couldn't hug me because I was holding his son. Austin plays with Dylan's hand with a smile. "I really wish you two brought Alex and Ava. We haven't seen them in so long and they could have had a play date with Dylan!" Holly said. "I know. But they are actually with our parents right now because this was suppose to be our day to spend together with 'alone time'." I said with a chuckle.

"This is suppose to be Austin & Ally's day? Then why did you two come here?" Dez asked confused.

"Because we missed you guys." Austin responded as they awed.

"We tend to have that effect on people." Dez said making us laugh as Holly smacked his arm and he just took her hand and kissed it. Still so in love and adorable.

Dez looks at the envelope in one of my hands. "I'm guessing my wife told you the great news?" He asked with a proud smile wrapping his arms around her. "She did. We couldn't be more proud of her." I said with a smile before kissing Dylan's cheek who continued to babble.

"She is so amazing, right?" He asked repeatedly kissing Holly's cheek causing a smile from Austin and I's faces and a giggle from her. "Oh, coming from the Vice President of the United States of America." She said getting out of his grip and facing him. "I still can't believe it." Austin said as I nodded in agreement. "Thanks man." Dez sarcastically said causing a laugh from all of us.

"I didn't mean it like that man. I meant I'm really proud of you even though it was unexpected. You deserved it and I'm so happy Melanie picked you. She made a brilliant choice." Austin told him as I put my hand over my heart at the sweet best friend support. Dez then smiles and even blushes a little at the huge compliment. "Thanks buddy." He said patting his back.

"Well, it was nice to see you both but we don't want to take up anymore time on your day." Holly said as we nodded as I was about to hand Dylan back over to Holly. "Wait, I want to say goodbye to my godson." Austin said taking him from my arms as I smile and we all watch him talk and interact with him. Bye, Dyl."Austin says lastly before going in to kiss him but Dylan then spits up all over the top of Austin's shirt.

His mouth opens and eyes close in disgust and we all three gasp in shock. Then we all look at each other and start bust out laughing while Austin stands there holding the baby far apart from him grossed out. "Oh, Austin. I am so sorry!" Holly said taking her son from him with a laugh. "He was feeling just a little sick earlier..." She admitted as he looked at her. "Just a little?" He questioned as Dez laughed going to the kitchen and coming back with paper towels.

Austin looks over at me because I was trying to hold in my laughter. "You are evil." He said as I start to crack up again. "I'm sorry babe, but it was just too funny." I defended as he playfully glared at me.

Holly gives Dylan to Dez and she begins to clean Austin's shirt with some cleaning material besides using the paper towels and it takes the stain out of the shirt and you don't even notice it was there. "Thanks, Hols." He said hugging her for the gesture.

"Well, we will see you guys." I said as they nodded and waved.

"Make sure you visit more often. At least try." Holly said.

"Of course." Austin replied.

"Bye." We all four said simultaneously to each other as Austin and I headed out to the car.

Austin's POV

Ally and I get back in the car and this time she decides to drive. "We start to make our way to the airport until I get an idea and I realize she does too and we look at each other. She stops the car and faces me. "You're thinking what I'm thinking?" She asked with raised eyebrows. "I mean...we are already here..." I said hinting at it as she smirked and nodded before starting the car again and heading to our destination.

When we arrive, we get out the car looking at the building we haven't been inside for a year. We smile at each other before I take her hand and we walk in. The security man goes over to us ready to check us but stops when he realizes it's me. "Oh my god. Mr. Moon. Sir, wow. It's nice to see you again." He said as I smiled shaking his hand. "You too, Frank. You mind?" I ask if we could go pass. "Oh, of course." He said moving out the way as we both make our way to the elevator.

The elevator heads upstairs to where we wanna go and if I'm being honest with myself. This feels extremely wrong. Being in the White House again and not being the President and in charge. But I know it's in amazing hands because of the amazing woman leading this country.

Ally and I get out the elevator and head down to the Oval Office and we stop right before the door.

"You wanna do the honors?" Ally asked me and I shrug my shoulders.

I grab the nob and open the door which shows Melanie and Chris making out in front of my desk. Her desk. Sorry. Habit. Ally and I smirk because they are so into it that they didn't even notice someone opened the door.

"There's the first woman President of the United States" I said loudly closing the door catching their attention to pull away and quickly face me. They look red handed caught and nervous until they realize who it is. Mel moves two steps looking at us in shock before a huge smile spreads across her face.

"Austin!" She screamed and suddenly ran straight into my arms which almost makes me fall back but I catch my balance. Chris and Ally eyes widen in surprise from the reaction but I hug her back with a smile missing her.

Though, it's been a year of me being in the White House, I have seen Mel before. When Ally and I visited Dez and Holly about six months ago, we ran into her sneaking out of her house as we were passing by. She invited us over and we had drinks but that was the last time. We've talked on the phone a few times but we've both been so busy.

We pull away and we smile at each other. "It is so good to see you, Mel." I told her taking in her appearance because she was literally glowing. She looked beautiful and more important. I think she feels beautiful and that's all I could ever want. "You're telling me." She said with a smile before going over to Ally. "May I?" She asked Ally to hug her as Ally looked confused. "Are you kidding me?" Ally asked Mel that it was even a question and pulled her in.

I smiled along with Chris who came over to me. "Nice to see you, Austin." He said holding out his hand. "You too, Chris." I said shaking it.

"I see you two are still together. I'm happy for the both of you." I said looking over at Mel who was laughing with Ally about something. "She's very happy. It's something I wanted for her for a very long time. Thank you." I told him as he nodded. "Of course. Her smile is worth more than anything in my world." He said and I could tell it was genuine from the heart.

Ally and Melanie come over to us laughing. "So, Ally just told me how Dez and Holly's baby puked on you." Mel said cackling as I made a 'really' face at Ally who smiled shrugging her shoulders. "Okay, it wasn't that funny." I defended. "I promise you it was. You should have seen his face. It was like." Ally said mocking my face which I hate to admit was exactly on point which made Mel laugh even more and even Chris joined in.

"Okay, moving on to something else. How have you been, Mel? You know running the country?" I ask genuinely curious how she was handling the position. "It is a lot of work but nothing more than I anticipated. It's something I'm very happy doing and if I'm ever in trouble or an edge, your friend Dez always comes through. He is an amazing Vice President. I'm happy I chose him to fill the position." She complimented making both Ally and I smile.

"We are too." I replied with a smile.

"My boyfriend here is a great Chief of Staff by the way. When Dez proposed the idea for Chris to replace his old position, I had no idea why I didn't think of it sooner." She said walking over to Chris as he wrapped his arm around her waist. "Don't sweat it. Dez is a natural observer." Ally told her as she nodded before looking at Chris and pecking his lip as he softly returns it. "You guys are so cute!" Ally squealed as I chuckled.

Chris and Mel pull away with a giggle. "I was honestly in luck being Dez's replacement as Chief of Staff as he moved up to Vice President. It was a huge spot to fill considering he left a memorable mark on his position and took his job very seriously but he believed in me along with Mel and that meant everything. That dude is gonna do great in the world." Chris said grateful of Dez.

I smile at all the love my best friend is receiving and how he is being appreciated. "I always told him so." I admit as they smile. "So, Austin and Ally. I know you sent me the baby pictures of Alex and Ava in the mail so I could finally see them but I never got them." Mel explained. "Really? We sent them out like two weeks ago. They should have taken no longer than a week. I can try to send new ones again when we return home?" I offered as she smiled with a nod. "I would like that. I've been waiting five long months to see the twins and I can't wait anymore." She said with a giggle.

"I see little Dylan all the time because Holly brings him up here sometimes when she can and we go get coffee." Mel tells us. "That's sweet. I'm happy you two are getting close. Especially, since I left. Sometimes I feel like I abandoned her." Ally admitted. "Trust me, you didn't. You did what was best for your family. She knows that and she would have done the same. As long as you two are in each others lives, it's all good." Mel said giving her advice as Ally smiled. "Thanks Mel." She said grateful.

"Mel, we've been meaning to ask about Debra. We heard from Dez and Holly a couple days ago that she just contacted you after all this time." I said as she sighed with a nod.

"Yeah, she did. It was weird because she went from being my only parent in my life to disappearing for a whole year." She replied as I nodded understanding.

"What did she want?" I asked curious.

"She wanted to know if we could meet up for coffee and talk. I had no idea about what since it's been so long. I agreed and met her though." She told us.

"How'd it go?" Ally asked.

"Um...it's still hard to tell. She congratulated me on winning the Presidency and I told her how she was a little late on that but she made an excuse saying that she was hurt that I 'chose' Gerald over her. I told her that was insane and I never chose between them and I just wanted my dad in my life as well considering she lied to me about him."

"Did she ever apologize at least?" I asked.

"In her weird little way. She said 'I guess it was wrong to do that. It could have been handled better.'" She said repeating her mother's words. "She seems to still hate my dad and that doesn't really make me want to forgive her at all. But I know she loves me. Even if it's not in the right way, she still loves me...strangely." She said looking down some.

"So, what are you going to do about it?" Ally asked.

"I don't know. I know that she doesn't deserve another chance but...she's my mother and she's the only parent I've known my whole life. Even if it was by deceit. She raised me and it's not easy to wish her away no matter how much I want it to be. I've been confused and I haven't spoken to her since because I'm still deciding on what I wanna do. All I know, is that whatever I do decide...my dad isn't going anywhere. I love him too much and he makes me happy. He makes me better." She tells us and we smile when Gerald walks in.

"Speaking of the devil." Mel said with a wide smile walking over to him.

"Hi daddy." She said hugging him as he hugged her back and I smiled at how genuinely happy Mel is now and I'm so proud of her.

"Hello, Mr. Grey." Ally said shaking his hand as I stick mine out as well as he shakes it.

"Hey guys. Nice to see you." He replied with a smile. "How are the twins?" He asked nicely. "They are great. Thanks for asking." Ally replied sweetly.

"So, where are you two headed after this visit?" Chris asked.

"Home." I replied blankly as they both nodded.

"This was really nice. Thank you so much for the visit. It was so good to see you again." Mel said emotional as I smiled pulling her in for a hug as I watch Chris go over to Ally and they smile giving each other a goodbye hug.

We pull away and Ally and Mel hug again before pulling away. "You really are glowing, Mel." Ally said as I nodded agreeing and she smiles looking back at Chris before facing us again. "Thank you." She said as I opened the door to see Marc and Collin, my old bodyguards who were just about to knock on the door with coffee in their hand.

They look at me in a little of shock as I do the same. "I...uh Mel?" I asked turning my head towards her as she had a nervous expression on her face. "My old bodyguards are yours now?" I asked not mad but shocked because it was unexpected. "Uh...yeah? I'm sorry Austin." She said walking over to me. "I just...after you left. I knew they would have work for other jobs and I thought it was pointless when I needed bodyguards anyway and I've know them for years. Plus, they were so good to you and I knew they were more than just your protection. They were your friends and I knew you would want the best for them. I thought this was it." She admitted as I look at her and in between them before I smile shaking my head at how she has grown. "I completely understand Mel. Thank you." I said as she smiled with a sigh that I wasn't upset with her.

I turn to Marc and Collin and then smile and then one crosses their face. "It's so nice to see you, sir." Collin said as we hugged and I patted his back. "You too, dude." I said as we pulled away. "Sir." Marc said with a smirk before pulling me in a hug patting my back hard.

"Okay. Adorable." Ally said as Chris and Mel laughed.

"Are you ready to go, baby?" I asked facing Ally again.

She nodded and took my hand when I offered it to her. They all waved goodbye to us and we waved as well getting on the elevator.

We get down to the lobby and go outside to the car and I drive all the way to the airport as we talked all about how we enjoyed seeing our friends and how happy we were making the decision spending some time with them and how lucky we are to be blessed with so many loved ones.

Ally starts laughing out of no where and I continue to ask what it's about and she refuses to tell me. I pick and pick at it until she reveals that it's a funny joke that she finds hilarious.

When I ask her to tell me it, she does and I promise you that it's the corniest joke in the world and no where near funny but I laugh anyway because I find it funny that she finds it funny!

When I turn my head to see my adorable wife still laughing with her head back and the biggest smile on her face as her beautiful hair blows in the wind, I could not fall more in love.

Ally Dawson. My wife. The mother of my kids. The love of my life. Everything I ever wanted all rolled into one. I'll love her forever and always.

Ally and I get to the airport and get on a flight going straight back to Miami. The flight takes another two hours and when we arrive in Miami it is still day time as we expected because we weren't really gone long.

Ally's POV

"I am so relieved to be back here. Which is weird considering we're almost always home." I said as we walked into the house. "Me too, babe. You wanna hit the pool? It's kind of a hot day." He offered as I nodded with a smile. "That sounds great. Let's head up." I said heading upstairs to change. "You go ahead. I still have my trunks outside from this morning with the kids." He told me as I nodded and went up the stairs to our bedroom.

I went into my bathing suits drawer and looked through all my options and decided on my black bikini that was very skimpy. It's Austin's favorite and it is our day so why not go all out? After I put it on, I put my flip flops on so for when I come back in and my feet are wet.

I go downstairs and don't see Austin so I expect he's in the backyard already. I head out into the yard after opening the sliding doors revealing Austin sitting with just his legs in the pool. I smile at how adorable he looks and sometimes it seems that he's not a grown man, but a little puppy.

Austin turns around when he hears my footsteps and smiles until he notices what I'm wearing. He takes a good look at my body before going into a daze which causes a small giggle from me.

"You need a camera, mister?" I ask snapping him out of his almost drooling daze.

"No, cause I got the real thing." He said winking at me causing me to blush sitting down next to him and he gently places a hand on my thigh as we take in the nice fall breeze.

"It really is a beautiful day." I said as he nodded in agreement. "And I love our babies but it's nice to have a day to ourselves and get to do stuff like this." He said as I turn his way with a smile.

"Like what? We haven't done anything." I replied as his eyebrows raised. "You talked too soon, Dawson." He said before pulling me into the water with him as I gasp going underneath.

When I come back up from the water, I see a smirking Austin who bites his bottom lip to keep himself from laughing. If only he knew, how sexy I found him when he did that.

"I could kill you." I said playfully glaring at him.

"You won't." He said coming closer wrapping his arms around my waist.

"You're lucky you're cute." I say letting him off the hook wrapping my arms around his neck.

He smiles flashing his pure and beautiful white teeth and his very deep dimples that made it easy to fall in love with him. "So, are you still doing that surprise for Chase, Liz and Pat?" He asked me as I nodded. "Yup. They are going to love it." I said with a cheesy grin. "I really wish you could at least tell me." He replied. "You know I can't." I tell him. "Why not? I don't work with you and it's not like I'll say anything." He said with a pout. "It's not about that. I've been working on this for months and I want them to be the very first to see it because it's for them and they deserve it." I said as he slowly nodded coming around. "Well, I hope they love it." He said placing a soft kiss on my lips.

When we separate, he doesn't pull away, all the way. His lips don't move far from mine. In fact, they are only centimeters from mine. I look at his soft pink lips, then look into his eyes that are already staring into mine.

Suddenly, he leans in and kisses me passionately and I tighten my hold around his neck deepening it. Our lips hold onto each other as he holds me up in the water by my butt and my legs wrapped around his waist. I smile into the kiss causing him to pull away with a smile as well. He doesn't say anything and goes to my neck leaving soft, gentle kisses on it as I try to hold in a moan.

He kind of pushes me against the pool wall which strangely turns me on and he starts to use a little more force sucking on my neck while adding his tongue and that time, I couldn't hold back anymore which of course caused him to smirk in his boyish ways. I bring his face back up to mine and hold each cheek into my hands before kissing him and he starts to make out with me again.

While we kiss, I take advantage to reach to my back unclasping my bra and letting it fall into the pool. I rub my hands down his wet smooth chest as our tongues collide over and over again and we both moan in pleasure. "I need you...now." Austin says pulling away breathless as I slowly nod with a small smile because I feel the exact same way. "Have me." I told him and he puts his hands on the side of my bikini bottoms and slowly slides them down as he looked into my eyes and I swear, I am so wet. And...I don't mean from the pool.

When he's done, he comes back up and places one of his hands on my exposed breasts and caresses them causing me to moan a little while I pull his dick out. I see that he is extremely hard and I understand why. It's been about 2 weeks since we've had sex because of how busy we are.

"I love you." He told me placing a hand on one of my cheeks before entering me causing a loud gasp from me making him kiss me to cover it up. I kiss back passionately as he pumps in and out of me slowly. We separate our lips so we can focus on being in sync for a while and I smile to myself biting my lip at the pleasure of his 8 inches being inside of me.

"God baby." He grunted putting his head in between my neck from how good it felt for him to be inside my soaking wet area. "You feel...sooo good." He added leaving wet kisses onto my neck as I moaned over and over again because of how good it felt. "Wait...wait." I said pulling him back to look at me.

I separate our bodies causing him to get out of me and I turn around facing the pool wall. I put my hands on the edge and I glance back a little at him. "What are you waiting for?" I ask as I see his eyebrows raise before a smirk appears. He comes up to me and puts his face to my neck. "Oh, you dirty girl. You want it rough?" He asked softly biting my sensitive shoulder. "You got it." He said before pounding into my vagina from behind as I groan loudly into the air in pleasure.

He lays kisses on my neck as he continues to pump in and out of me. "Jesus, Ally." He moaned into my ear that turned me on even more. "Don't stop baby. Don't stoooop." I said as I feel my eyes starting to roll in the back of my head as Austin gropes my breast in between his hands causing me to moan even louder.

As I throw my head back, Austin smirks against my neck leaving a kiss on my lips that I decide to return as I feel his member start to throb inside me. We add our tongues into the mix and moan against each others lips in heaven from the pleasure.

I feel my insides start to heat up and I could feel myself start to become close. Austin uses his fingers to play with my hard, pink nipples which added to the extended pleasure I was already feeling. "Come on baby..." Austin said in a groaned struggle because he was close as well. In a matter of seconds, I orgasm and he explodes inside of me as we both sigh out of breath and in satisfaction.

When we come down from our high, I slowly turn around to face him putting my arms around his neck. "I love you." I say lowly as he smiles at me with his pearly whites. "I love you." He replies closing the space between us and connecting our lips.

Austin's POV

Ally and I get out the pool, and as soon as we are about to pass the kitchen, I pick up Ally quickly and place her on the counter. She gasps looking at me as I get whipped cream from the cabinet and she just stares at me in disbelief. I smile going over to her and make her lay back gently.

I slowly travel my hand down her soft and exposed body while leaning down and trailing kisses from the middle of her breast to her lower stomach. I hear her breath hitch and I sit back up opening the whip cream bottle. She looks at me as I pour some on her pink nipples.

I lean down and look her in the eyes as I bring my tongue out and slowly lick it off her nipple. She moans lightly and I feel myself start to become hard again. I open my mouth completely and wrap it around her nipple and began to suck gently while swirling my tongue around it as well.

"Austin." I hear Ally say as if she's almost pleading to just give her even more. I get on top of the counter and I stare at her beautiful wet center. I rub my hand against it and Ally purrs from my touch.

I pick up the bottle of whip cream again and open it. This time I spray a thin layer across her slit opening. In one quick motion, I lean down and take a long lick on it causing Ally to moan loudly which motivates me to start sucking on her vagina walls and inside.

"Fuck Austin!" She screamed into the air as I sucked harder and harder while twirling my tongue around her clit as she begins to hold onto my hair which makes me completely hard now.

I lick up and down and then slowly start to suck on just her sensitive clit while entering two fingers into her. I continue to pump them in and out and she looks like she's about to have tears in her eyes from the intense pleasure. "Mmm." She moans because she can't bring herself to say anything else because the strong feeling won't allow her too.

I pump my fingers into her some more and I feel her thighs start to shake and she orgasms into my hand. I smile with success and lick her up before going to her face and kissing her and she sighs kissing me back.

"That was amazing. Thank you." She said as we pulled away and I chuckled at her satisfied face.

"No need to thank me. It was a pleasure for me as well." I replied.

"Yes, I do. Because you'll be thanking me soon." She said as I made a confused facial expression when she quickly flipped us shocking me.

She smirked at my reaction and took the whip cream bottle shaking it while I looked at her with raised eyebrows turned on and then she sprayed it on the the tip of my dick and I smile internally realizing what was about to happen. Her soft hands took my member and she softly started to pump it up and down with her fingers and then she put her mouth on it licking the whip cream off my tip while simultaneously sucking me off.

I groan now gripping her hair and she sucks even harder than before with motivation. "Please don't stop, baby." I moan into the air because of Ally's magical tongue. She pulls away for a second which saddens me because I thought she was gonna stop, but she just pours more whipped cream on it including my balls.

I smirk at how dirty my wife is and she starts to play with my sensitive balls and connects her soft and beautiful lips to my member giving me pleasure like never before.

I feel myself coming closer and then I cum in her mouth. I try to catch my breath while I loosen my grip on Ally's hair and she brings her face up to mine with a smirk.

I smile shaking my head at her smartness. "Thank you." I said as she smiled pecking my lips. "No need to thank me. It was my pleasure." She said copying me as I chuckled a little sitting up.

We get off the counter and face each other. "In the pool and in the kitchen just now was amazing, but that's enough sex for now." She said as I nodded agreeing. Kinda. Maybe. Sorta.

"Yeah, defiantly. We are done for the day." I said 100% sure.

Ally's POV

"God, Ally." Austin moaned as I rode him into paradise in our bedroom. I moaned loudly with my head back and he played with my bouncing breasts until I brought my lips to his and softly bit his bottom lip turning him on more than ever.

I went up and down repeatedly as his member tightened around my tight and wet vagina walls causing his eyes to roll to the back of his head.

"Uhhh." He groaned as I opened my mouth in pleasure and he watched as I rode up and down and my hair began to cover my face because of the wildness I was letting loose onto him.

So it seems that Austin and I can never get enough of sex with each other because as you can see, it is just too damn good. We bluff a lot, but once we get just a touch of each other, all bets are off.

He holds onto my waist while I ride him back and forth and his hands tighten on me as he feels himself start to throb inside of me. "Mmm." I moan at the feeling of him vibrating inside of me. "Come on baby." He says to me so I can orgasm as well at the same time. He starts to use his fingers and begins to rub my clit up and down quickly which drives me crazy. "Austin!" I moan as he continues to rub it and I feel myself come close and we both orgasm at the same time.

We both breathe out of breath before I fall on top of him and we start to slowly make out connecting our lips passionately before smiling in each others face as he moved my hair out the way. God, we are in love.

Austin's POV

I stare at Ally who plays with the dog chain on my neck.

"What?" She asked looking at me sweetly with her beautiful brown eyes making me smile.

"You're so beautiful..." I said in a low voice as she looked at me until a smile spreads on her face and she buries her face in my chest.

I chuckle. "What did I say wrong?" I ask confused but amused.

"Nothing...it's just that you make me blush." She admitted as I laughed a little. "Even after 3 years?" I questioned as she sat up and faced me again.

"It's never gonna stop, Austin." She told me surely as I smiled a little.

"If it makes you feel any better, you make me blush too. Even if I never want to admit it." I said as she giggled.

"Oh, I know. I just don't say anything because I want you to keep your man pride in tact." She told me.

"How sweet are you?" I say sarcastically as she laughs kissing me before sitting on top of me.

I look up at her beautiful face and place one of my palms on her cheeks as she smiles. "I wanna take you somewhere." I tell her as she raises her eyebrows.

"Ooo. Like where?" She asked leaning down and quickly kissing me.

"The beach?" I offered as she thought about it for a second before smiling.

"Okay, yeah. I actually like that idea." She said happily as I smiled with a nod of agreement.

"Alright then. We are going to the beach." I said pulling her down for a passionate kiss.

*Time Skip*

"Austin, can I please open my eyes now?!" Ally asked for the hundredth time since we arrived at the beach 20 minutes ago. "Yes, Ally. You can open them now." I told her as she sighed relieved and opened them.

When she did, it looked as if her heart had stopped. She looked around at the soft blanket I had placed on the sand, the picnic basket and food laid nicely on top of it, the candles surrounding the setting and the whole beach empty because I rented it out.

Ally then looked at me like I gave her the air to breathe and damn did it always feel good to make my woman happy. She slowly walked up to me and then ran in my arms kissing me. I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her closer and deepening the kiss.

When we finally pull away after a long time, I slowly lower her down and she opens her eyes to mine and I couldn't look away even if I wanted too. "What did I do to deserve you?" She asked looking at me and it feels amazing to know how much my wife loves me just as much as I love her. "I think I should be asking that question." I replied as she smiled placing a hand on my cheek softly.

Ally looks back at the scenery and smiles happily. "Babe, this is so beautiful. Thank you." She told me as I took her hand in mine and kissed it. "No need to thank me darling. I live to serve you." I said as she giggled taking my hand and leading us both to the picnic I made.

I sit down on the blanket and grab her waist forcing her to sit on my lap. "Hungry?" I ask handing her some pickles as her eyes light up. "After all that sex? Defiantly." She said making me laugh as she took a bite out of one.

Ally and I eat some food and discuss some of the things we did today. We talk about our friends we visited and how good they looked and how happy they are that makes us so happy.

"I really hope Mel's mom comes around. It would be so great for Mel to have both her parents trying to make a good difference in her life." Ally said hopeful laying down on my chest as I wrap my arm around her. "Me too...but something tells me she's a little too far gone, babe." I said causing her to look up at me. "I don't mean to sound negative but I've known Debra longer than you and...she's mean and cruel and just...evil. She's much older now and I think if she was gonna have some kind of redemption, it would have been a long time ago." I said as she looked at the water for a bit before looking back at me. "I see where you're coming from, but...I don't know. I like to believe that everyone could change if they really wanted too. Maybe it's not too late for her." Ally replied as I looked into her eyes and sighed a little. "I really hope you're right babe. I really do." I said as she laid back on my chest.

"Oh, there is something else I wanted to show you." I told her as she fury her eyebrows. "What else could you possibly have gotten me?" She asked amazed at me.

I reach into another one of the baskets with a box of her favorite red lollipops and she gasps in shock and happiness. "Oh Austin!" She said grabbing them and hugging them. "I haven't had these since the White House. I've missed them so much." She said as I smiled at her excitement. "I had a feeling. I missed them too considering I loved watching you suck on them." I said as she giggled punching my arm. "Thank you baby." She said pecking my lips and placing them down beside her.

"This has been such a nice day. I'm so happy we are spending it together." She said as I smiled kissing her forehead. She smiled into me before looking at my wrist and picking up my arm. "I didn't know you still wore this." She said referring to the gold watch she got me for my new job celebration. I bet you guys are dying to know what I do now, aren't you? Greatness comes to those who wait. "Of course. It was a gift from you and I love it. Plus it reminds me when to pick up the kids from daycare and you from work." I said as she giggled kissing me.

I softly kissed her back as we started to make out on the blanket I laid out. She softly moans into my mouth as I wrap her hair into my hands as I hold her face as if she could so easily slip away. We both smile into the kiss enjoying ourselves from being hopelessly in love.

Suddenly, Ally's phone rings cutting us off. She looks at it and sighs looking back at me and going to kiss me again. I kiss her back but slowly pull her away. "You should answer it. It could be our parents for the kids." I say as she nods and picks it up.

"Hello?" She asks.

"Oh, hey."

"Wait, seriously?"

"Oh my god, that's amazing!"

"Wait...right now?"

"Oh, okay. Um...yeah. Alright. I'll be there in 20." She says lastly hanging up.

She faces me with a happy but sad face. "What is it? Are the kids okay?" I asked worried.

"Oh, yeah. That was the construction workers I hired telling me that their work is done over at ADA." She told me as I raised my eyebrows impressed.

"Seriously? That's awesome." I said with a smile knowing how much Ally had been planning this surprise for her friends for the past four months.

"Yeah! The thing is... they want me to come now. Since it'll look best fresh right now." She said as I nod slowly finally getting it.

She sees my face and instantly feels bad. "Oh, baby I'm sorry. I know you planned this nice picnic and everything and it feels like I'm abandoning you. Screw it, I'll just reschedule it, and do it another ti-"

"Babe! Babe." I said grabbing her hands and catching her attention.

"It's fine." I told her honestly as her facial expression calmed down.

"Really?" She asked not sure.

"Yeah. You have been waiting forever to show this to your friends and I don't think you should have to wait any longer. Besides, we ate all the food and we had a nice time together here. You go and I'll be back at home when you return. It's fine. I promise." I said truthfully as she looked at me a little longer before a smile appeared and she hugged me.

She pulled away and then kissed me. "God, I love you." She said before laying another smooch on me. We then both got up and she helped me placed the blanket, used candles and radio we used for music into the trunk of the car.

We drive home and then she gets in her own car. "Alright, I'll see you when you get back?" I said as she nodded her head.

"Yes, you will." She said leaning up and kissing my lips before driving off and I headed inside.

Ally's POV

I called Liz, Chase and Pat to meet me at ADA and I smile excited about the big surprise and I really hope they love it. Oh, yeah. I guess I should catch all you guys up.

After Austin and I's move to Miami, the gang and I discussed ways we could continue our business together. After about a month, we realized that we wouldn't all be able to run it together while being separated without it going completely under. I made the decision to quit ADA and told them to keep going because I was gonna have to start fresh from where I was.

They did it on their own for a few months but one day they came to Miami, and admitted that it wasn't the same without me and I told them that I understood but they can't just leave it behind with no one to run it. We all worked so hard for our jobs and the success it earned is because of every single one of us. They said they know and they surprised me with the transfer of ADA to Miami! Can you believe that?!

My best friends moved to Miami for me, just so we could all continue our jobs with each other. I still can't believe it. To this day, it blows my mind. I haven't gotten to see them for a long while because for the past couple of months I've been on pregnancy leave and people were still going crazy about Austin and I but they eventually got over it. I wanted them to stay out of the spotlight and I didn't want them getting bad press.

They all live no more than 10 minutes away from us. Chase and Liz figured they should move in together when they got here and it was so exciting because obviously they are relationship goals. I'm still in awe of them being together for over a year now. I'm happy they're happy. Pat's wife, Pam wasn't that upset about it because apparently she's been wanting to live in a warmer city since she was a kid.

We bought a new building, put all our names on the contract and ADA was open again! It was such a relief that I was back in business with the people I couldn't live without. Chase, Liz and Pat have always been Ally Dawson's strength. Yes, I spoke in third person. I love them so much.

Anyway, lately I've been looking at the building and it looks great but something hasn't been feeling right. When I finally realized what it was, I knew what I had to do. Though, I've been on pregnancy leave, I had to do this huge surprise for them!

I make sure I get there early and meet the construction workers standing next to the ladder on the building. "Hello, gentlemen." I say with a smile. "Mrs. Moon." They reply with smiles and a nod of the head before a car pulls up. Now, what I did has been happening over the past couple of months and the people had to work on a schedule when they weren't gonna be there. I always had to keep them updated so no one would get caught.

Chase gets out the driver seat, Liz gets out the passenger and Pat exits the backseat. Besides working together, I wanted them to keep their distance from Austin and I because of how much press and paparazzi since Austin's presidential departure and the affair scandal. It's been way calmer now and suddenly they are calling us the next Brad and Angelina. But what they don't know is that we're gonna actually last.

They all smile widely at me coming over until it all goes away when they lay eyes on the construction men. "Hey guys." I say smoothly putting my hands in both pockets of my jacket. "TAKE IT AWAY BOYS!" I yell as all three of their eyes widen as the guys start to hammer the letters of our company, Ally Dawson & Associates. "OH MY GOD,WHAT THE HELL, ALLY?!" Liz screamed coming closer watching the letters fall. "Als, what the hell are you thinking?! Pat yelled putting his hands on his head as he watched the letters get destroyed. "Oh hell no." Chase said trying to make one of the guys ladder fall so he could stop hitting the building but I stopped him.

I laughed and laughed and laughed and they just looked at me like I was crazy. "Guys, don't be so dramatic. When you take something away, don't you know there's always something better on the other side?" I said as they got confused and the guy looked at me as I gave him the cue and he hit a certain part of the sign which made everything drop exposing the new name.

CLAP Corporations.

They all look up astonished and mesmerized by the beautiful new logo but damn confused why I did it. "CLAP Corporations?" Chase questioned. "Why that name?" Pat added. "What does it even mean?" Liz asked folding her arms as they are still hurt as the other one is now destroyed.

"Over the the years, I've been granted to work alongside three of my best friends. Though it was my business that started the company, I would have never solved as many cases as I have with all of you and become as great as I am at my job. The three of you stuck by my side even though the world hated me at the time. I couldn't ask for better friends." I say as they look down and smile a little.

"You are amazing lawyers and honestly all these years it's always been a pleasure working alongside you, not the other way around. It's one thing to say all these things, but it's another to actually prove it. That's why I named it CLAP Corporations." I said pointing to the sign as they look back up at it. "It stands for Chase, Liz, Ally & Pat's Corporations." I say as their eyes widen realizing the match to the initials.

They turn back to me and the guys have amazement in their eyes while Liz has tears. "You did that for us Als?" Pat asked with a low breath in disbelief as I slowly nodded. Liz first ran up to me hugging me right as the rest followed while I chuckled.

I was being smushed to death but I didn't care. I wouldn't have it any other way. They soon pull away and Liz wipes her face as they still get mesmerized.

"Guys, I'm so sorry that all those years you had to come to work and work hard just to see only my name on this building. You are not just associates. It was selfish and I don't want you to ever think I don't appreciate you." I say as Liz holds my hand.

"Als, we would never think that. We know how much you care about us and this law firm. Plus it was my idea for the name." She said as Chase and Pat nodded.

"Als, your name was up there for a reason, so never regret it. You're the best in the game. You gave justice to so many people and that's your legacy. We're so proud of you and the things you overcame. We love you." Pat said as tears appeared in my eyes.

"You guys are so sweet." I say wiping my tears with a laugh.

"Not as sweet as you." Chase says pointing to the building again before pulling me in for a hug.

"Aww Chase. This is most affectionate I've seen you." I say leaning against my friends warms chest.

"Oh, I know. Liz and I get real affectionate when we're in the bed-"

"Okay, and you are back." I say as he and Pat laugh while Liz hits him in the shoulder which causes me to look at her hand...that has a ring on it.

"Liz, what is that?" I ask folding my arms as she looks down and blushes while Chase fiddles. "Oh, right. Chase and I are engaged!" She said as a huge smile plants on her face as I gasp. "Oh my gosh, why didn't you tell me?!" I screeched hugging her as the guys smiled. "Because you told us to stay away for a while and it's not exactly something I want to share with my best friend over the phone." She explained as I still stared at the ring mesmerized.

"I am so helping plan the wedding!" I said cheerful clapping my hands.

"Woah, slow down tiger. Chase and I discussed that we wanted this to be a long engagement." She told me as I fury my eyebrows.

"Don't wait that long. Unless you don't plan on repopulating the world. Us women are on a time schedule." I told her as she giggled.

"Yeah, I know. Don't worry, we only wanna wait at least another year or two and then we can tie the knot." She said smiling at Chase as he returned it.

"And then I can put some kids in her." He said bluntly causing Pat and I to laugh as Liz shook her head.

"God, I really missed you guys." I said with a sigh of happiness and relief that I don't have to separate from them anymore. "Same here, Als." Pat said with a smile and rubbing my arm with warmth.

"It was the best decision we ever made coming out here. It's not a good life, if Ally Dawson isn't a part of it." Chase said making me teary eyed and I went to hug him. I faced my head towards Liz and Pat and motioned for them to join and they do. "I miss us. I'm so happy we're back." Liz said as we all smiled. "Forever and always." I said. "Forever and always." They all repeated before we separated.

"Now I would really love to stay guys but Austin and I parents have the twins and this is suppose to be our day together and-"

"We get it Als. Go home to your hubby." Liz said with a smile.

"Thanks." I said with a returning one.

"Congratulations again on your engagement and Pat, you and Pam have to have coffee with me sometime." I tell him as he nods.

"Sure thing." He says as they walk me to my car. I get in and sigh facing them.

"You guys happy? In life?" I ask them as they look around at each other before at me and all nod with smiles causing one to appear on my face.

"Good. Me too." I said starting my car.

"I'll see you guys on Monday for work. It's gonna feel so good to be back after months at home with the kids." I told them as they nodded.

"Bye Als." They said waving as I did too pulling off.

I headed home and parked in our parking spot. I got out still amazed at how huge and beautiful our home is. I walk inside and call out for Austin. He doesn't answer which confuses me. I wonder if he's at his parents house with the kids.

I take out my phone and dial his number and I hear it ring which means he's still in the house. My eyebrows fury in confusion when I follow the ringing into the living room where I see Austin passed out on the sofa and his phone on the table next to him.

I hang up my phone and I smile a little at his adorable face. He must be really tired from being out all day including the two plane rides. I quietly get a blanket and try placing it on top of his body but because of him being such a light sleeper, he wakes up rubbing his eyes.

"Whoa, Ally you scared me." He told me as I sat down next to his laying body. "I'm sorry. I just tried to put the blanket on you to make you more comfortable." I told him as he smiled at my kindness. "I'm only tired because you wore me out with all the sex earlier." He said making me laugh and he smiled at me.

"I'm sorry mister. You seemed to enjoy it from my perspective." I replied placing my hand on his chest. "Oh trust me, I did." He said causing me to smile shaking my head. "Lay with me." He said as I got in front of him as he covered us in blankets.

"So, how was it surprising the ADA crew?" He asked me genuinely interested. "Amazing. They were so surprised and they even teared up a bit. They loved it so much. I'm happy they do." I responded as he nodded against my neck. "That's great. I'm happy your hard work paid off." He said as I giggled a bit. "I would say that to the construction workers team." I say as he rubbed my stomach softly. "It was still your idea." He said laying gentle kisses on my neck before we both fall into a comfortable sleep.

*Time Skip*

Austin's POV

I wake up to my phone ringing. I see that it's my mother and I pick it up. She tells me that it's time to pick up the kids and I wake up Ally up. "Babe, it's time to get Alex and Ava." I told her as she rubbed her eyes nodding and getting up. "Oh, I'm sorry for waking you up. I could have just gotten them by myself." I said feeling selfish as she shook her head. "No, it's okay. I wanna show you something anyway before we go." She said as I fury my eyebrows not having an idea what she's talking about. "Okay..." I said as she dragged me away.

"What is it Ally?" I ask confused.

"Don't ask. Just follow." She said as I did what I was told until I saw that we were heading to the basement considering we haven't been down there for at least two months. We still haven't decided what we wanted to do with it.

"Babe, why are we going down here? We haven't been down here in months." I said as she smiled.

"Because it's where your surprise is." She said as we got down there and she turned the lights on showcasing a completely furnished and colorful music room. It was amazing. It was gorgeous. It was...the DOPEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN.

I look at Ally in amazement but also confused at the same time. "I know you don't wanna be a famous singer and you're happy with what you're doing now but it doesn't mean you can't sing for me sometime. Or yourself. Because no matter how much you try to hide it, I know you love it." She said poking me in the belly causing me to laugh a bit.

I hold both her hands in mine. "Babe, this is amazing. I love it. Thank you." I said before kissing her passionately and she gladly returned it. "I love you." I told her as she smiled leaning her face against mine. "I love you." She replied kissing me one last time before taking my hand and we walked out to the car. She decided to drive this time and drove to my parents house.

We got out and knocked on the door and Ally's mom came to the door. "Hey guys. Nice to see you again. Come in." She said as we greeted her back before going inside seeing my mom and dad holding a sleeping Alex and Ava. "Hey mom and dad. How were they? Any trouble?" I asked as they both shook their heads. "No, not at all. They were great. They played with us for a while, we fed them and then they took a nap." She told us as Ally smiled looking at them.

"Why is it that there is two of them and they were easier babies than you." She said making everyone laugh as I gave her a really look. "That's because they took after their mommy. Being good." I said as she smiled kissing my cheek before we each went over to our babies.

I slowly picked up Alex and he fit perfectly against my chest as he sighed continuing to sleep. Ally picked up Ava and she slept on her as well. "We had a great time together today. Thank you for the opportunity guys." Ally said to my parents and her mom grateful. "No problem. It was truly a pleasure. It would be nice to babysit them again. They're good." My dad said and I know he had to mean it for him to say that because my dad has never been a kid person. I think Alex and Ava are turning him soft. "Thanks guys. We'll see you soon." Ally said as we both waved heading out. I placed both of them into their car seats and Ally got in the passenger seat and I got in the driver.

We hear some noise and we look back to see them waking up and we giggle. "Twins. Always doing things at the same time." I said lowly as they look at us and smile a little. "Mommy's babies are too precious." Ally said looking at the both of them mesmerized. Ava started to cry and Ally got her bottle from out her bag and handed it to her and she calmed down drinking it. Alex just stared at his sassy sister and we giggle.

I pull off and we drive home within 10 minutes. Ally's phone rings as we both get out. "You take that. I'll take them in." I told her. "Thanks, babe." She said as I picked Alex and Ava out from their car seats and went inside after unlocking the door.

Ally's POV

When I watch Austin take the kids in, I pick up the phone. "Hey Mel." I say nicely into the phone. "Hey. I know I've just seen you two today, but I wanted to tell you that the pictures of Alex and Ava came in about an hour ago. How crazy is that?" She asked with a laugh as I joined in at the coincidence. "Completely crazy. So, what do you think? I got a couple of models for my babies huh?" I asked with a giggle. "You're damn right! They are so freaking gorgeous Ally! They have your eyes and Austin's blonde hair. God, they're so precious!" She said making me smile widely. "I know. Thanks so much Mel." I told her appreciative.

"There's also something else I've been meaning to tell you but I got really nervous when you two were in front of me." Mel said making me concerned for her. "What is it Mel? Are you okay? Are you and Chris?" I asked as she laughed a little. "Oh, yeah we're great. It's just that...it looks like I'll be joining the mommy club as well." She said as my mouth dropped open in shock before a wide smile covered my face.

"Oh my god, Mel! That is freaking amazing!" I told her basically screaming over the phone causing her to laugh.

"Thanks. I'm close to four months. I don't show easily apparently. Anyway, I was tempted to tell you guys as soon as I found out but I wanted to take it easy because of the tragedy that happened last time..." She said as I get a little sad at the memory.

"Hey, it's okay. I understand and I couldn't be happier for you. Chris is gonna be an amazing father." I told her.

"Yeah, I know. He's been amazing. He was on top of the world." She said as I smiled.

"Oh my god, this explains why you were glowing when I saw you. That pregnant glow." I told her.

"I like to think that sex with Chris helps with that as well." She says making me laugh as she giggles.

"Mel!" I say shockingly but I found it hilarious.

"What? You and Austin aren't the only ones who get it on." She said as I laughed more and more.

Who ever thought Melanie Grey and Ally Dawson would ever talk and laugh like old time buddies after everything that has happened between us?

"Well, it was nice to see you again today and make sure you visit again sometime. You, Holly and I could get some coffee and catch up." She offered. "Of course. That would be great." I say happily. "Okay. Bye Ally." She said. "Bye Mel." I replied as we both hung up.

I walked into the house to see Austin rocking a wide awake Alex and Ava in each of his arms. "Look, it's mommy." He says walking over to me. They smile with their very tiny lips making me smile. "Hey sweetie pies. Are you hanging with daddy? Or should I say Mr. Mayor?" I ask rubbing their tiny bellies causing both of them to giggle as Austin smiles watching us.

"I still can't believe the people elected me even after our huge scandal in the White House." He said as I sat back up facing him. "Babe, most of the people in this town are people you grew up with and they know your true heart. You have to realize that people are more forgiving than you think. I had too." I told him as he smiled.

"So, I know it's nothing like being the President of the United States but...you do love it right?" I ask as he smiled. "Baby, you ask me that all the time and I give you the same answer. Yes, I do love it. I'm the mayor of the city I was raised in. It's an honor." He told me as I smiled.

"I know, it's just that...I want to make sure you are happy because I do sometimes feel guilty that you quit the presidency because of me..." I finally admit to him as his smile went away and he looked at me seriously. "Ally...is that really true?" He asked looking into my eyes while the babies continue to coo at each other. "You were amazing at your job. I felt like I screwed it up." I told him truthfully feeling bad because of the ultimatum they gave him and he chose me.

He looked at me with soft eyes. "When I made the choice to walk out the White House, it was the best decision I ever made." He said shockingly as I stared at him. "Yes, it was a job I loved very much but I found something I loved more. You." He said as I got tears in my eyes. "I didn't choose you with regrets and I still don't have any because you are more than I ever needed in life and more than I ever deserved. I chose Ally Dawson because the presidency doesn't even come close to her." He said as they fell down my cheeks and a smile spread across my face as I grabbed Austin's cheeks and kissed him the best way I could with him holding the twins.

I pull away and he manages to wipe all my tears even with them in his hands. "Mayor of Miami. I'm proud of you baby." I said kissing his hand like he does mine causing him to laugh a little. "Thanks babe." He replied sweetly.

"So, who were you on the phone with? I hope you're not cheating on me. But if you are, you should know it's your lost because I'm really getting the hang of this dad thing." Austin said jokingly making me laugh. "It was Mel. She just wanted to tell me that she finally got the pics of Alex and Ava and finds them adorable and precious." I told him as he nodded.

"Also..." I trailed off as he looked at me waiting. "Mel is gonna be a mommy too." I said ripping the bandage off as he stared in shock before smiling. "Seriously? That's so awesome. Wow. I'm really happy for her." He said smiling to himself still in amazement. "Yeah, its crazy right? She told me that she just didn't say anything earlier because of the...you know before." I said as he nodded getting it not wanting to go down memory lane. "Of course. That's completely understandable." He said as I rubbed his cheek to make him feel better and he smiled grateful.

"Do you think Chris and her will get married now that they are having a baby?" He asked.

"Mel and Chris don't have to be married to start a family. They know and we know they'll get married someday, so why the rush? They've been waiting so long to be together so why not just enjoy it?" I said as he nodded in agreement.

"Since she's pregnant, it seems that they have been enjoying it." He said smartly making me laugh loudly which causes Alex and Ava to laugh as well copying their mommy.

I kiss Austin's cheek making him smile. "I'm so happy, Austin. My life, is so surreal. I have a job I love with all my heart. I have babies that are my entire world. And I have you. The love of my life. Who gives me amazing and unbelievable love making." I say as he laughs so perfectly. "It all seems so perfect. It's everything I could ever dream. I love you baby." I say kissing his lips repeatedly making him smile in between them.

"Okay, you can't say all those sweet and sexy things and not say it. You have to say it." He said as I playfully rolled my eyes and started fluttering my eyelashes. "Mr. President." I say low and sexy making Austin groan and lean in, kissing me causing me to laugh as I wrap my arms around his neck as he still holds the babies.

When we pull away I take Alex out of his hands and into my own who just lays on my chest as I pat his back and Austin does the same for Ava.

We sit on our huge staircase in our house placing them on their backs in our hands staring at their beautiful faces as they smile happily up at us. "We did good." Austin said smiling down at our son and daughter. "Yeah we did." I reply leaning on his shoulder. He turns to me and looks into my eyes happily. "I'm excited for the future with you." He says sweetly. "Me too." I say back as we lean in and kissed in pure bliss.

We pull away and I shake my head dramatically. "Oh, Mr. President." I say again causing us both to laugh leaning our foreheads together. "I love you." He tells me. "I love you." I say as we collide our lips one more time.

I guess my story does have a happy ending.
