Tet outa sigh as Irun one of my hands through my hair.

“I plan on changing how he feels about me and proving to him that I'm here to stay as not only their father but also as your partner” Isay whilst looking Lacey in her eyes.

“How do you plan on doing that?” “With this" 1pull my hands away from Lacey and 1 grab my briefcase opening it I then pull out some forms that I had my attorneys write up and arrange the moment I found out about the triplets Thad hoped to discuss this with Lacey in New York and have all of the paperwork signed, sealed and completed all in one go but after ‘hearing what Logan Junior had to say today, knew 1 had to do something ta prove to the four most important people in my life that I'm here to stay and I hope what I'm about to dois the start of them all letting go of their fears and starting to trust me.

“When Ryker called me and told me you were in London and you had my kids with you, 1 knew I had to do everything I could to keep you all in my lfe forever, especially my babies, so 1 had my lawyer create a new wil for me" “A will?

“Lace.” “Lacey Black..and the kid's names are also Black in here as well She cut me off and I smiled when I heard what she said Its got a ice fing to it, don't you think?” Lacey looked up at me and her expression changed to happy and excitement but I could also tel that she was stil pretty hesitant to believe me and give us a chance.

“Vourre serious about this, aren't you?" “As a heart attack, babe. wouldrit have wasted my time and money trying to find you f wasrit serious about us being together, would never have gotten your name tattooed on my body if did't want you to be mine forever and I certainly wouldn't have wasted more time and money trying to ind this for you if 1 wasn' serious about you becoming my wife and being my partner” Lay while handing her a small fing box.

“No, it's not, babe, normally when a couple gets engaged it means they're eventually gonna get married one day, whereas, I want that one day for us to be tomarrow” 15ay and Lacey snaps her head towards me so fast that Im surprised she did't pull a muscle or break a bone in her neck when she did “Tomorrow?” — say while smiling as 1 bite down on my lower ip.
