Two Loves of Mine

The finale. Wow. I am super proud of myself for finishing this series after a very long break. Here it is, part 12. I love how Duff and Bree’s story ends and the love, the romance, the tooth rotting fluff is to die for in this last chapter. Please show some love, comment, reblog, all the works!! 🥰

*One year later*

-Bree’s POV-

“Strawberry jelly or grape jelly, Ai?”

“Strawberry, please!” Aislinn calls from the living room, surrounded by dolls and stuffed animals. She’s in her own little fantasy world of make believe.

I smile and spread the red jelly on a piece of bread, placing the peanut butter slice on top before cutting the sandwich into two triangles, convinced sandwiches always taste better that way. I put the knife in the sink, peanut butter in the cabinet, and jelly in the fridge and close the door, the only picture on the door catching my attention as it always does.

Aislinn on Duff’s shoulders, me beside Duff, Duff next to me with an arm wrapped around my waist and a hand on Aislinn’s leg to keep her steady. Three big, bright, genuine smiles in the house we now call home together. I guess when you take a leap of faith, good things can happen.

Our love rekindled so naturally. There was never a moment where I felt we were rushing back into things. Everything fell into place as it was meant to.

“Mama, come sit with me!”

I grab the sandwich from the counter and join Aislinn on the floor. She accepts the sandwich and kisses my cheek as a ‘thank you’ before digging into the sticky sweetness.

Her eyes are brighter. She laughs more. She smiles more. She’s happy. And to think I had been depriving her of this happiness only a short while ago. Stripping her of the chance to have a complete family. Not my finest mom moment, but I’m still learning how to be a better parent. I have another chance though. Not just with Aislinn, but with the little girl safely resting in my belly.

I cradle my growing stomach, watching as Aislinn delicately cares for her dolls, no doubt she’ll exude that same gentleness when her baby sister arrives in due time. The missing piece of our puzzle.

Heavy footsteps stop behind me. I turn as much as my body will allow, a small smile gracing my face. Duff stands against the wall, a mixture of what I can only describe as adoration and awe etched onto his face.

He laughs and smiles more, too.

-Duff’s POV-

I can only do as much as watch them sit together before my heart begins to beat faster than it should on an average day. I drink everything in. The messy living room with thousands of toys thrown in all directions. A half eaten peanut butter and jelly sandwich. A giggling Aislinn beside the sandwich.. An utterly beautiful and overwhelmingly pregnant Bree beside her. Everything I’ve wanted.

Bree gestures at the empty space on the carpet beside her. I join them on the floor, opting to sit behind Bree and hold her against my chest as Aislinn plays, absent in her own world. Bree relaxes against me. Her guard is completely broken. There’s no walls hiding her heart away. There’s no worry lines etched into her forehead or sarcastic quips falling off her tongue in an attempt to insult me. There’s just an aura of calmness and peace that has replaced her defense mechanisms, accompanied by lovestruck eyes and warm kisses I get to relish in for the rest of time.

Her hands rest on her stomach and mine, much larger and normally rougher but gentler with her, slide on top of them. My nose finds her neck, nuzzling deep into her. I place a few kisses along her skin. “I love you.”

She sighs, her voice light and airy. “I love you. I love this life with you. I love our family,” She cranes her neck to look slightly back at me, a hand coming up to cradle my cheek. I sink into her touch. “I love you.”

Three words I thought I’d never hear from her again, but I am over the moon that she says them so frequently and passionately.

She kisses me softly, and much too quick for my liking, but I’ll never pass up the opportunity to just hold her in my arms as we watch our daughter, the one who is blossoming into a combination of myself and Bree, yet still blooming into a person all her own. The one who, without realizing it, gave us a reason to become a family.

And as I sit with the two most precious gifts known to mankind, the realization dawns on me that these two loves of mine are just weeks away from turning into three.
