Chapter 141

I felt little hands pushing on me and I fluttered open my eyes to see Gracie sitting next to me.

"Mommy, cuddle."

I nodded tiredly and sat up so I could bring her close and then heard Ashton speak from across the room.

"Gracie, I told you to let Mommy sleep."

I looked to my left to see him walking out of the bathroom.

"But I want cuddle." She turned and looked at him with her bottom lip poked out.

"She's fine." I said, bringing Gracie into my lap. "What time is it?"

"Ten." He said, coming to sit next to me.

"Oh." I yawned and then wrapped my arms around Gracie who looked up at me, reaching up to touch one of my curls.

"Mommy you give me kiss?" She asked me and I kissed her nose, a smile coming to her lips.

"It's bed time." Ashton scooted over and went to take Gracie but she let out a whine.

"I wanna sleep with Mommy."

"Well I want to sleep with Mommy too." Ashton said back and I shook my head.

"Both of you can sleep with me, come on."

Ashton laid down and Gracie snuggled between us.

"Where's Ender?" I asked as I laid back down.

"He went across the hall to play video games and fell asleep, I didn't want to move him." Ashton said.

"Ah."

"Mommy I want goodnight kiss." Gracie said from between Ashton and I, and I leaned in to give her a kiss, Ashton doing the same.

"Goodnight sweetheart." I said and felt Ashton reach his arm around the two of us.

It wasn't hard to fall asleep again and I awoke to movement on the bed, opening my eyes to see Ashton getting up.

I watched as he stretched his back and neck before walking to the bathroom. A minute later he came out and his eyes landed on me.

I gave him a sleepy smile that he matched and then sat up carefully as to not wake Gracie while I watched him walk over to start the coffee maker.

I got out of the bed and took the blanket from the other bed before wrapping it around myself like a cape and went to sit on the sofa, waiting until Ashton came over with two cups of coffee.

He sat down next to me and I leaned into his side, hearing him chuckle.

"Morning." I looked up at him.

"Morning." He leaned down so we could share a kiss, and I could feel the scruff on his face tickle my skin.

"Someone needs to shave." I hummed as I bumped my nose against his cheek.

"I know. I've been waiting until you come back because I need you to get the back of my neck."

I took a sip of my coffee and he turned on the television, keeping the volume low.

"Do you have anything today?" I asked.

"Nope. I have all day to spend with you." He squeezed me tight and I couldn't fight my smile. It just felt so right being back in his presence.

I let my free hand rub across his tee shirt covered stomach, playing with the fabric and feeling the hard muscles beneath my fingers.

"So how are you feeling?" I asked him quietly and he let out a breath.

"Fine." He said.

I peeked up at him to see him staring at the television.

"We should talk about it..."

"It was just a panic attack. I had a nightmare and then I had a panic attack. But i'm fine."

"No I get that. I meant we should talk about Gracie."

His muscles froze beneath me.

"That's what you've been thinking about, isn't it? What we're going to do when she grows up?"

"I'm scared if we don't tell her she's not ours she will find out one day and hate us, but i'm also scared that if we do tell her she's ours that someday, someone will tell her she's not, and she might hate us still."

"I know." I sighed.

"We could seal the court documents." He suggested.

"Yeah. But there's still the articles and news reports."

"Then...we could say that...." He began then sighed. "I don't know."

I sighed too.

"Ya know," He said then laughed, "when Michael and I were talking the other day he said he was convinced that you and I had hooked up four years ago and had Gracie."

I smiled.

"I don't want to lie to Gracie, and we can't hide the past, but if she grows up knowing that we love her then it will all work out."

"I think you're right." Ashton said. "I just wish that asshole wasn't her birth dad."

I chuckled.

"You and me both."

"I mean, he doesn't even look like her." He said.

"Well."

Ashton and I were quiet for a bit, watching the morning news until a sleepy Gracie strolled up to us, climbing up on the sofa and plopping herself down in Ashton's lap.

"Someone needs a pull-up change." Ashton sighed and picked her up before taking her to the bathroom, Gracie running back out to me in just a pull-up.

"Gracie, you were doing so good in your big girl panties." I frowned.

"I no like them." She said as she climbed up onto the sofa.

"Well you have to start wearing them."

She shook her head no and I sighed, Ashton chuckling at the two of us as he refilled his coffee cup and mine.

He sat down next to us and handed me my drink, Gracie now clinging to me.

I wrapped the blanket around the two of us and set down my coffee, holding her close to me.

Ashton smiled at us and took our picture, Gracie happily resting her head on my neck.

"Someone missed getting Mommy cuddles everyday." Ashton said and I smiled down at Gracie.

"Did you miss my cuddles?"

"Mhmm." She nodded. "You miss Gracie cuddles?"

"I most definitely missed Gracie cuddles."

The door to our room opened and Ender walked in.

"Hey bud." I smiled and he came to sit with us.

Ashton ordered breakfast and as we waited I went to the bathroom to put my hair up in a bun and brush my teeth.

"So what do you want to do today?" Ashton asked.

"Well, I was thinking of doing another Mommy blog today and then I don't know. We could go out for lunch and shop or just walk around. Whatever you want to do." I smiled up at him.

"I'll start thinking of places we can go." He squeezed my waist and I thought he was going to let go but instead he wound his arms around me, hugging me from behind. "I'm so happy you're back."

"Me too." I closed my eyes and leaned back into him.

"Please don't ever leave me again." He mumbled.

"It wasn't on purpose." I chuckled. "If I hadn't had to go I wouldn't have."

"I know, but still...I never want to be without you."

"I never want to be without you either." I kissed his jaw and then the corner of his lips before he let me go.

Breakfast arrived and I made myself a plate and then sat down at the sofa with Ashton's laptop and pulled up the blog site and began to write my next entry.

Blog 2

Hello everyone! It's Carter Chase!

It's been a while but I'm back with my next Mommy blog. It has been a crazy couple of months for the Irwin-Chase family, and now that life has settled down again I thought i'd share a bit of what occurred in our life these past weeks.

By now, most of the world has probably seen on the news of our very brutal court battle over the custody of our little girl, Gracie. Ashton and I found out shortly after arriving in London, that a man was claiming to be her birth father, and was requesting a DNA test because he was planning on filing for paternity.

Ashton and I were both devastated. It didn't help that I was in the hospital for another seizure either. I remember the both of us crying in the hospital room, terrified of what the future held for not only our family, but for our daughter.

When the DNA test came back as a match, Ashton and I quickly had to make a fortifiable plan to ensure that our daughter would be able to stay with us. We hired the best child custody lawyer in London to help us, and were rallied with support of our family and friends. Ashton and I wanted to keep the entire ordeal quiet and under wraps for the safety of our children, but our plans went array when the man who claimed to be our daughters original father went to the press.

I didn't know what I was more of, angry or heartbroken. Heartbroken that this was even happening to my family, and angry that my family's turmoil was being spread about the world so carelessly and ruthlessly.

Now, i've read the articles and seen the footage of us sitting in the courtroom along with the headlines surrounding the fact that Ashton and I were fighting against Gracie's birth father. I know how that sounds. But Robert Ramone has never been Gracie's father. He abandoned her before she was even born. The only father Gracie has ever known is Ashton, and for our daughters safety and security, it needed to stay that way.

The custody battle was mean and nasty, and almost broke our family in pieces, and the worst part was that I couldn't do anything to save my family.

I think the worst moment was the day Gracie had to spend a 24 hour supervised visit with her birth father. Everyone showed up at the social services building to send Gracie off. We told her she was going on a trip and that we would see her the next day, and she seemed to accept that answer until they began to walk her away. She had cried out for us and was crying as they put her in the car, and that was the point where Ashton and I just completely broke down. I remember the two of us just sobbing in the lobby of the social services building, our friends, my brother, and Ashton's mom were trying to comfort us but it was hopeless, we were heartbroken.

There was a dark cloud hanging over our family. Ashton and I weren't ourselves, I was having seizures adding more chaos to the mix, Ashton was working on all of the legal work while also dealing with my health, and Ender was confused and sad as to why this was happening. But Gracie was the ray of sunshine that broke through the clouds and gave us light. She was truly the hope we needed, and we sought happiness in her.

In the end, we were able to keep our daughter with us where she belongs. After Gracie being interviewed, Ashton and I being interviewed, the home visit, our friends and family testifying for us on the stand, and the massive amount of support from others, the judge agreed that we were the best home and family for Gracie.

And now, as I type this, I have my beautiful little girl snuggled up next to me with her Daddy and big brother as they eat breakfast. Gracie, throughout everything, has remained the smiley, giggly, and bright little girl Ashton and I love so dearly, and I'm so thankful that she is able to be with us forever.

Now, despite the whirlwind custody battle running its course and ending, Ashton and I still faced other parental challenges.

Ender has now decided that he wants to call Ashton 'Dad'. It was an emotional decision for all of us, but I can tell the bond between Ender and Ashton has grown stronger than ever. Ender was concerned about calling another man his father, and I know Ashton was concerned whether my father would approve of him taking up that roll in Enders life. But the two of them have just bonded and created such a beautiful and loving relationship as father and son. I'm proud of both of them and i'm excited to see where life takes them.

With Gracie, Ashton and I have been dealing with typical temper tantrums, melt downs, and attitude problems, but she's finally
gotten past the (attempted) nursing stage. We still do Mommy cuddles several times a day where I hold her skin to skin (if not there's a definite tearful outburst) but she has stopped trying to nurse from me during those times. She has now moved on to the "wetting the bed" stage and while I was home for a week, Ashton had to start her on pull-ups. She had been doing so well, so we are not quite sure why she has gone back, but I guess this just means we get to do potty training part two.

As we settle back into a normal lifestyle, Ashton and I are so ready to take on whatever might come our way. We are stronger than ever, more in love than ever, and happier than ever. We will have more things to face along the way, and parenting isn't getting any easier, but we are in it together and I know that our family can get through anything.

I wish all of you well, and thank those of you who offered kind words, prayers, and support to our family during the trying time. They were all greatly appreciated and we are eternally grateful.

I promise i'll have more updates on our parenting life soon, as something else is destined to arise.

Love, Car

"Did you finish it?" Ashton asked me, leaning over to see the screen.

"Mhmm." I smiled. "I've just got to share it now. Can you show me how to do the link again?"

"Sure." He moved closer, lifting Gracie into his lap before taking my phone and adding the link to my biography.

He then sent me the photo he had taken of Gracie and I this morning and we both used it to post about the new blog.

After this the four of us began to get dressed and ready for the day. I was glad to be back
in a normal routine.

I dressed Gracie in white stockings and a red dress, and for myself I chose a black sweater and skinny jeans.

"Ah, my favorite jeans have made a reappearance." Ashton smirked as he walked up to me and jokingly squeezed my bum.

I turned around and took his hand before walking a few feet into the closet, then taking his other hand.

"So I got you something." I said.

"From home?"

I was then sidetracked by the word home and smiled up at him.

"What?" He asked, a grin on his lips.

"I like that you call Haven Harbour your home."

"Well, its where I own a home with you, and have raised my daughter with you, and I wrote the address down on all of my work forms, so yes, it's my home."

I smiled giddily at this and leaned up to kiss him.

"So what did you get me?" He asked when we broke the kiss.

"Well, after we went bridesmaid shopping, we went to a...lingerie shop...and I might have purchased a few things I thought you might like...on me..."

Ashton's eyes went wide as I spoke and his lips settled into a smirk.

"And I was thinking...that you could pick out what I wore tonight." I kissed him after I finished talking.

"So we're doing it tonight?" He smirked.

"Well we haven't done it in a week and i've missed you. Why, is tonight not a good night?"

"It is, just normally i'm the one who initiates it, but I like it when you take control." He kissed me hotly.

"Well I put all of your choices in the top drawer, just let me know what you decide." I kissed his cheek before slipping out of the closet.

I loved flirting with him like that. It was fun.

I went back out to the main room to put Gracie's shoes on her feet and make sure Ender was ready to go.

Ashton then came out of the closet and came up to me as I stood up and pressed his lips to my ear.

"The red one." He said and I smirked.

"Yes, Sir." I said and he shot me a wink.

Everyone put on their coats and then the four of us left our hotel.

Instead of taking a car we walked. The mob of paparazzi was huge but I squeezed Ashton's hand to make sure he knew I was there.

He squeezed it back and I looked back at him to smile which he copied.

We walked along the sidewalk as a family, hand in hand, talking about the positive and happy moments we missed while enjoying the London weather.

As we passed a magazine stand I saw something that caught the corner of my eye and I turned back, picking up the new copy of GQ and holding it up.

"Oh my God!" I exclaimed as I showed him the magazine with his face on the cover. "You look so handsome! I forgot this was coming out!"

Ashton laughed.

"I'm getting a copy." I smiled and purchased the magazine from the vendor.

Ashton then took my picture holding up the magazine and posted it, saying 'Check out my interview with GQ magazine, this hot little aussie (my wife) is excited to read it!'

As we walked we came up to a cafe and Ashton took the kids to the counter to get them hot chocolates while I sat down at a table in front of a fireplace, opening up the magazine and finding the interview.

ASHTON IRWIN GETS CANDID ON FINACE CARTER, PARENTING, AND EX JENNA TAYLOR: "She has her closure"

It's a typical drizzly morning in London when we arrive at the hotel drummer and member of 5 Seconds of Summer, Ashton Irwin, resides in with band mates Michael Clifford, Calum Hood, and Luke Hemmings.

Irwin answers the door in only boxers and says "Sorry, I just woke up. My daughter was up all night because she had a bad dream."

Inside Irwin's hotel room his four year old daughter Gracie is asleep and he puts on a shirt and sweatpants before making coffee, saying that "My fiancé makes the best coffee ever and my coffee is shit compared to hers."

After he has his coffee he sits down at the table in the large hotel suite, sipping the drink.

"So Ashton, you've been through a lot of new changes in this past year alone, tell
us what has been going on in your life."

He chuckles at this.

"Well I mean, I got engaged a couple months ago which is pretty awesome." He shrugs. "I don't know, life has just been a little crazy for a while and it's just now starting to settle down again."

"You and your fiancé Carter met during holiday when you booked a tour with her diving company, so was it an immediate connection or did it take a while for you two to connect?"

"I mean it happened pretty quickly but at our own pace. It was her first relationship and I knew if I asked her out I would be her first boyfriend, and I was obviously in love with her the moment I met her, so I wanted to take it at her pace and make sure she was comfortable with me and being in a relationship before we dove right in; and I waited like two weeks before asking her to be my girlfriend. But I knew from the beginning i'd have to become a better man for her if I ever wanted her to say yes."

"So now you and Carter are engaged and obviously in love, how has your relationship with each other changed since you are now getting married?"

He smiles. "It's amazing. I love her like mad. I'm kind of like obsessed with her, and so knowing that I get to spend forever with her is a feeling I could never describe, it just makes me beyond happy. We both are just more in synch and have just a deeper connection than ever before. Everyone always says that when you find the person you're supposed to spend the rest of your life with you'll know, and we know. It's the greatest feeling to fall in love with the person you will spend forever with."

"Now you recently said on twitter that Carter is the only girl you ever loved and you faced a little bit of back lash from that. What were you trying to say?"

"I mean I said the truth and the truth is that Carter is my one and only love. Yes people can be in relationships where they say they're in love with the other person, but until they meet that one person they are going to spend the rest of their life with, they don't really know what true love is, and I didn't know what real love was until I met Carter."

"Aren't you worried that saying that will offend the girls you've had previous relationships with?"

"No, because they were in the relationship as well, they know what feelings were and were not expressed, and those ended a long time ago, I've changed and they've changed and I have someone else in my life. It's simple."

Ashton Irwin and his fiancé Carter recently exited a custody battle with their "adopted daughters" biological father in which Irwin and Chase were able to successfully establish themselves as their daughters rightful parents.

Neither Irwin or Chase would talk with the press during the extremely difficult time, but now that it has ended Irwin was willing to open up a little bit about what happened during that time.

"It was awful. It was just pure awfulness. Our family was really broken and all of us were so depressed, it was so sad. I would wake up at night crying, literally sobbing my eyes out because I was so absolutely terrified that my daughter would be taken away from me and my fiancé. It was heartbreaking to see Carter so distraught, she was absolutely devastated as well. Over all it was just a really heartbreaking situation."

"You took Mr. Ramones law suit as a personal threat to your family, and you said repeatedly that he wasn't her father, but biologically he is. Why did you stand by saying that he was not her father?"

"I felt very lost and confused as to why this was happening to our family. I saw myself (I still see myself) as Gracie's father, so to have another man come and say that he was her dad and that he wanted to raise her was really hard for me to come to terms with. Mr. Ramone has never been her father and now he never will be. I have been and always will be Gracie's father."

"You had a lot of support from friends, family, and other celebrities; did that make a difference?"

"It was comforting to know we weren't in this alone. I know Carter and I were both very thankful that our friends took to the stand to speak on our behalf and to ultimately help keep our daughter with us where she belongs."

"When did you first find out about Gracie's birth father and why did you keep it so hush?"

"We found out when Carter was in the hospital for a seizure she had that Gracie's birth father was wanting to establish paternity and was requesting a DNA test. He was never recorded on her birth certificate, so we didn't think her birth father was even around, so we were really blindsided by the whole thing which made it a million times worse because of Carter and her health, and also just emotionally made it harder, and so we kind of had to rush to get a plan together on what to do if he actually was her dad. And then when we got the results we didn't really say anything because I mean, who wants to go around telling people that their child might be taken away from them? And for our kids safety we wanted to keep the media and press away while we dealt with this extremely personal thing."

"What was the feeling like when you found out that you and Carter would get to keep full custody of Gracie?"

"It was just absolutely pure happiness. That night before we were so scared that that would be our last night with her and so to hear the judge say that we would get to keep her was just such a massive relief and god send. It felt like the world had been taken off my shoulders and that I could breathe again, and that our family could go back to being normal, which we really needed."

"You and Carter also changed your daughters name as a result of your victory, why did you change it and what made you decide to change it to Darcy?"

"It just kind of came up one night when Carter and I were talking and we just said that if we would've had the chance to name Gracie ourselves we would've named her something different, not that we didn't like her name, but just so that we had a little more of our claim on her and we decided on the name Darcy and so the judge changed it from Parker Grace to Darcy Grace Irwin and Gracie said she liked it and so we did it."

At this point Irwin is then taken away from our conversation by the sound of his daughter crying and he gets up to tend to her, eventually bringing her over to the table.

Gracie is a very sweet child who looks a lot like Irwin which he says is one of his favorite things about Gracie, and she resembles her cousin or Mommy, Carter a lot as well.

She has on blue footie pajamas and is holding onto a small blue blanket and a rabbit stuffed animal when Ashton sets the child in his lap and has her wave hello to everyone before she hides her face in his neck, Irwin holding her while the girl has her back to us, hugging her father.

"She has to have someone hold her as soon as she wakes up in the morning." Irwin says as he gently pats the little girls back.

"Most parents have nine months to prepare to have a child, and you and Carter became parents in the span of a few weeks, how has that changed your outlook on parenting?"

"Well I had-I don't want to say experience- but an idea about handling children since I was kind of helping Carter out with Ender a little bit."

Ender is Carters eleven year old brother who is now being raised by Ashton as well. Their parents died when Carter was 13 and Ender was 5, and Carter raised him alone up until she met Ashton.

He continues, "But I mostly just knew how to handle attitude problems or if he was having a bad day, how to cheer him up or calm him down, and he was eleven and Gracie was four, so I actually took a parenting class on toddlers."

"A parenting class?"

"Yeah. They talked about figuring out how to find the best way to care for your child. So when Gracie arrived I had to learn what calmed Gracie when she was upset, how to talk to her, what tone of voice she would respond to when she got in trouble, and things like that. Carter had more experience with little kids than I did but we still had to learn Gracie together."

At this point Gracie is now fully awake and hanging on her dads neck, Ashton smiling at her.

"You're cuddly this morning." He tells her and she smiles at him. "You get that from your Mommy."

As Gracie converses with him, the father and daughter never stop smiling, her voice has an interesting accent since she was born in London but is being raised by Australian parents.

He kisses his daughters cheek before getting her a yogurt container and a spoon, bringing her back to the table so she can eat her breakfast.

She clings to him the entire time he's moving around and he laughs at her, telling her stories about her Mommy who is back in Haven Harbour, an island off the coast of Sydney where she and Ender grew up and now lives with Ashton and Gracie.

"Did Ender handle the change of having Gracie come in to the family well?"

"He handled it better than Carter and I expected him to. He really stepped up to be her big brother while Carter and I were really working with each other and Gracie on getting her accustomed to life with us and us with her. And now they are so cute together, they are good siblings to each other and play together and cause mischief together, so it's a blast."

"In a few of Enders Instagram posts he has called you his dad, what is that like having your fiancés little brother calling you dad?"

"Well over time the relationship between Ender and I, and even between Ender and Carter, has shifted from brother and sister and sisters boyfriend and girlfriends brother to mom and dad and son. So while Ender is really Carters brother, we see him as our child because he basically is. We raise him, we take care of him, we're his family and so he treats us like his parents and we treat him like our son. But it's cool, I like getting to experience having a boy and girl child before Carter and I start having more kids."

"Is that what is the next step for you guys?"

"Well I mean I obviously want to have babies with Carter but right now we are just kind of waiting it out until this tour ends before we start doing things like planning our wedding, getting married and having kids."

"Will there be another tour after this new album or will the band take a couple of years off to live life?"

"I think from a business standpoint and from a marketing standpoint we have to do a tour after we release this next album. So there will be a period of time between where Carter and I can focus on marriage and things like that."

"Did you two always know you were going to get married from the very beginning, or did you at least talk about it before you proposed?"

"Yeah we talked about it once or twice, not like in depth or anything, but I told her that I saw marriage in our future and she didn't completely freak out so I took that as a good sign." He laughs. "But I made it known shortly before I proposed that I was planning on us getting engaged but that that was for the future, and I think I ended up proposing like a week or two after I said that, so I obviously couldn't wait any longer."

"So what is it? What is it about Carter that has you so in love with her?"

Irwin smiles at this and then proceeds to shake his head.

"She's just the most incredible person I have ever met in my life. And I think a lot of people won't understand that unless they meet her. You have to understand, Carter has been through so much heart ache at such a young age, from the death of almost all of her biological family, losing her childhood and doing everything on her own for so long, and all of that heartache turned her into such a strong person. She is my best friend. Seriously, like my best confidant. I tell her absolutely everything, and I don't worry about her judging me or telling other people because she is so trust worthy. She's so sweet too. She's always so nice to everyone, and she loves really hard and is such an amazing mom and friend, and there's just so much life in her and it's amazing. She's a beautiful person and I don't deserve her, I know that, but for some reason she wants to be with me and loves me like no one else and it's incredible. I'm just so in love with her."

"How has Carters health affected your relationship and also the way you now both live?"

"Carter didn't start having health problems really until after we started to date. The first time there was a scare was when I was in London for the UK tour. I had been calling Carter for three days and she hadn't been answering, and I finally got a call ten minutes before we went on stage in Manchester from Carters best friend Ari that Carter had been found out at sea, her head was cut and she was dehydrated and really disoriented and they were helicoptering her to a hospital in Sydney. So of course I was panicking because I had no idea what was happening, and it was too late to cancel the show because we were going on stage, so our tour manager Bryan went back to the hotel during the show and packed a bag for me and Michael and the second the show was over Michael and I changed clothes and went straight to the airport. And obviously Carter was okay, but we knew if she was in a worse condition then we would've canceled the rest of the tour."

"How would you have explained that to your fans, because at the time you hadn't even revealed you were in a relationship?"

"Well I don't think I would've revealed my relationship yet to them, just said I was taking time off for personal matters. But I just wanted to keep Carter safe."

"How do her health issues come into play now as you move forward?"

"We are just more cautious. We don't go into stressful situations if we can help it. We try to keep a low profile and take life one day at a time. I'm obviously very protective of her so my main goal is to keep her safe so I worry about her when I'm not with her and I just want her to be healthy and happy."

After this, a conversation began about their presence on social media, and the topic of Ashton's ex-girlfriend, Jenna Taylor, arose. Irwin became less interested in the conversation and that point and it was obvious he wanted to move on, but did say this.

"Carter and I have both talked to Jenna together. She apologized for everything she did, and that's it. She has her closure."

Ashton had nothing more to say about his ex.

To end the interview we moved on to a subject he was more than happy to talk about, 5 Seconds of Summers' new album.

"It's going to be great. It's a step up from the last album and we can't wait for the fans to hear it."

When asked if he could give any details about songs on the album he said this.

"It's definitely family oriented. There will be some surprises on the album."

"Are there any songs about Carter on the album?"

"Several."

Irwin said the band has many plans for their next album and tour and wants to travel to as many places as possible. But he said his family is his number one priority and he holds them above anything else and the band knows that so their future schedules will revolve around that.

He said he has big plans for his life with Carter and is ready to get married, have more kids, and settle down. Ashton goes on to say that the celebrity lifestyle has its perks, but he'd much rather stay at home and be the father and husband he has always wanted to be.

I closed the magazine and looked up to see Ashton sitting in the chair next to me, looking at me expectantly.

"What did you think?" He asked.

"I think...that you are already the best father and husband in the world."

He laughed at this and leaned in to kiss me.

I was so lucky.
