***Neko's POV***

"Baby. We woke up late. Fuck." I hop around the room throwing my shirt over my head. Milo runs around grabbing the remainders of our last minute packing.

"Shit. I'm so sorry. I didn't plug in our phones." Koala is freaking the fuck out.

"It's fine. We just gotta rush. No big deal." I grab the chargers, our wallets and our bags. I turn off all the lights and check each room as we get to the door.

"You two. I can't believe you just woke up." Nat giggles. I send her a playful glare.

"We can grab breakfast on the way. Let's go." Ky waves his hand toward the door. Lux guides Ky out and I lock everything up.

"Everyone got everything?" I open the truck and toss our stuff in the bed of the truck.

"Yes. Now come on." Milo is irritable. He hates rushing but, he hates being late even more.

"Calm down, please." I grip his face between my hands and bring his lips to mine for a kiss.

"I am. Can we please just get to the airport?" My Koala climbs into the front seat and motions for me to hurry.

Once in the truck, I make our way straight on to the open road. I slip my arm around him and hold him close. He's obviously excited and probably anxious.

"Sorry." Milo leans to the side and lays against my shoulder.

"No problem, baby. I understand." I smile at my beautiful fiancé.

"I'm hungry." Max whines from the back seat.

"I'm Neko. Nice to meet you." I chuckle when Max throws his middle finger up at me.

"We can just get airport food." Lux urges. I shrug. I don't care either way.

"That's good. Yeah, saves time." Max smiles and Milo nods along.

We check in at the correct terminal. We stare at our flight as the word delayed blares at us.

"Well, I guess we have time to eat." I wave our group to the airport cafe. We place our order and take a seat.

"Where are your families?" I look to Nat and Max.

"They are in the bar. They text me an hour ago." Nat laughs.

"Our's too." Lux smiles at me.

"Do we need anything else, at all before we board the plane?" Milo questions everyone after breakfast.

"I have you. That's all I need." I pull him into my arms and tilt his head back. I kiss him deeply and for a very long time. I can't wait to show my baby off to my friends.

"Batman." Milo whines.

"Yes, Love." I smirk. I know.

"Now I'm horny." Milo whispers in my ear. He rubs his tent across my leg as proof.

"I think we have time." I laugh when he gives me a glare.

"I guess I can wait until we get to a house." Milo huffs and turns away from me.

"Keep pouting. I will have your pants off and your dick in my mouth faster than you can yell." I nip his ear with my teeth and run my tongue over the teeth marks.

"Bathroom?" Milo winks.

I'm seriously contemplating it. But, the loud speaker announces our flight.

"Figures." Milo frowns and walks towards our seats.

"I promise. I will make it up to you." I thread my fingers through his and pull him closer to me.

"You bet that tight ass you will." Milo smirks when I stare at him.

"You're feisty." I chuckle.

The Bennett's and Wallace's join us. We all board the plane and take our seats.

"Six hours from now we will be in paradise." Amy gets a far away look.

"Six hours?" Milo shrieks.

"Yeah, babe. It was on the ticket." I look at him incredulously.

"I didn't read that thing. Oh my god." Panic rushes into Milo's system. I reach in my bag and grab his Trazadone. No one wants to be anxious during a plane ride.

"Thanks." Milo kisses me and takes my Coke. He drinks until it is empty.

"Thirsty little koala." I chuckle.

"Oops." Milo blushes. I love when his skin colors. It's so beautiful.

"Where are we staying?" Julie asks.

"The adults will be at the beach house I borrowed. The rest of us will be there sometimes. But, my army buddies want to meet my boy." I run my hand through Milo's hair.

"The wedding is Saturday. That's three days from now." Milo looks to everyone for confirmation that everyone knows the schedule.

"Bean, we have the itinerary that Nat made." Lux tries to sooth Milo's nerves.

"I'm just gonna hush." Milo turns away from us and faces out the window.

"Baby. You're really moody. What's the matter?" I pull him to me and stare at him. He's never this pissy.

"Sorry. I'm nervous, horny and tired. I will go
to sleep." Milo closes his eyes. I sigh. This is crap.

"Baby, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I'm sorry." I rub his side when he places his head in my lap.

"You didn't. I'm just. We rushed. I didn't get time with you. Now, I have to wait. I'm just frustrated." Milo turns and his eyes are watery. He really is stressed out.

"Just relax my love. I got you. We got this. You're going to be my husband in three days. Focus on that, hmmm." I smile and lean down to kiss his forehead.

"We don't even have to change my name." Milo giggles.

"Perks." I chuckle. It's bizarre.

"If you two get any cuter, Jesus is going to blush." Ky smiles at us.

"You know Jesus? Tell him to get me a puppy." Milo quips at Ky.

"Do you want a dog?" I haven't really thought of a pet.

"I don't know. It sounded good. I think about it. I would rather have a baby." Milo grins at me.

"No rush. We have forever." I'm not ready to take care of another human. I want time with Milo. I'm selfish.

"Timeline?" Milo gives me his serious eyes.

"Five years." I am good with that.

"Two." Milo bargains.

"Three and you get a dog." I counter.

"Hmmmm. Three and I get a dog, you fuck me more often and I get to drink in Hawaii." Milo lays down his final offer.

"Fine. But, you stop when I cut you off." I warn him. He's never had alcohol.

"Deal." Milo grins wickedly.

"Compromising with you is tough." I joke.

"I wanna drink too." Ky gives Lux puppy eyes.

"I never said you couldn't." Lux laughs.

"I thought it was a given." Ky laughs.

"I'm your partner not your dad. I don't mind if you want to have a few. Just make sure you are good for the night." Lux gives Ky a sweet kiss.

"Okay. Everyone is fucking adorable." Mrs. Julie awes at her kid.

"Are we eating somewhere special tonight?" Max is always thinking about food.

"Actually, the house is fully stocked. I thought we could fire up the grill, start a fire and spend our first night on the beach. Liam and Eric want to come over." I explain.

"Who are they again?" Milo is always bad with names.

"Liam was my second under me. Eric my third." I go over the details so they can all remember. It will make introductions easier.

"Sounds wonderful." Amy gives me a sweet smile.

"Can we night swim?" Milo pulls his puppy dog face.

"Put that thing away." I groan. He uses it as a weapon of mass destruction to my senses.

"Is that a yes?" Milo bats his eyelashes.

"Yes. Yes. Yes." I kiss his lips in between answers.

"This is going to be so fun." Milo smiles wider. I can tell his meds are working.

"Yeah, until jaws rips off your leg." Mr. Luke guffaws when Milo turns and glares.

"There aren't sharks." Milo grimaces as the thought.

"Actually, there are. Hawaii is known for bullsharks and great whites have been spotted. Didn't you hear of all the surfers who lost limbs out in the water." Mr. Mike instills fear in my baby.

"Batman will protect me." I chuckle and roll my eyes. He thinks way too highly of me.

"Either way. I will take my chances." Ky fist bumps Milo.

"Are we renting Tuxes there?" Lux asks.

"No. We are doing informal. I'm not into the white wedding bullshit." Milo shakes his head aggressively.

"That's even better. The sooner we can strip the better." Nat claps her hands.

"It will be semi-formal. Don't get too excited." Mrs. Julie warns.

"It will be perfect." I grin. I'm marrying the love of my life. We could be barefoot and shirtless for all I care.

"Did you pack the rings?" Milo freaks, again.

I reach down and grab the box out of my carry on. "These?" I wink.

"Thanks." Milo calms back down. He doesn't realize that I checked, checked again and then checked a third time.

"Are we going to go on any excursions?" Ky seems hopeful.

"As many as we can fit in to ten days." I nod in agreement.

"I'm excited. I hope we see some whales. Maybe some dolphins." Julie is a marine animal buff.

"It's likely. I saw them a bunch when I lived there."

"I can't believe you left paradise for Washington." Ky shakes his head. I'm sure it seems preposterous.

"I would have left heaven to be with Milo. It was an easy trade." I'm being honest. If you can't be with the love in your heart, life isn't worth experiencing.

"You say and do everything just right." Milo yanks need down quickly. He kisses me feverishly and sticks his tongue into my mouth. It's not often that he takes control.

I love it.

I tangle my fingers in his hair and mewl softly. I enjoy him stealing my breath.

"That kiss is gonna get you pregnant." Mike laughs.

"Would save money on adoption." Milo shrugs when he lets me go. I'm still trying to recover.

I take a few large, greedy gulps of air.

"What about surrogacy?" Amy questions.

"I don't know. I'm nervous on both avenues. You could get a child that hates you. Or, you could get a carrier who doesn't follow through. It's all scary." I listen proudly as Milo discusses our future family.

"Someone you know wouldn't do that to you." Julie offers her advice.

"Nat is the only girl we know." Milo argues.

"I love you Bean. If you need to use my body, I wouldn't turn you down." I smile at the angel.

"We got time. Let's all not rush." I try to rein in the plans.

"You technically have two years and two months." Milo smirks devilishly.

"You said three years." We made a deal.

"I said I want a baby in three years. Takes 40 weeks to cook. You got two years and two months." Milo laughs at me.

"What I got was bamboozled." I laugh.

"Not my fault you fall prey to my charm." Milo laughs when I grab his face and kiss his perfect lips.

"That's fine baby. Whatever makes your big heart happy." I'm in no rush, but I'm not opposed. At all.

"You make me happy. And a dog. Oooh, what kind of dog?" Milo goes off on listing different breeds.

"It has to be kid friendly. Also, protective. No yappers." I qualify.

"Get a Rottweiler." Ky decides.

"Those are really big. It will need a house not an apartment." Milo thinks it all through thoroughly.

"Well, we will need a house for our family. So, it doesn't matter how big the dog gets. Eventually, we will need to sell the apartment." I explain.

"You bought it?" Milo gives me a mesmerized stare.

"Well, it was a steal." I don't know. I just did.

"Well, we can sell it. Then we can have a down payment on a house." Milo stuns me with all of his responsibility.

"Sounds good. You can start looking whenever you want." I grip his hand and squeeze it comfortingly.

"I love you." Milo presses his forehead to mine.

"I love you, Koala. Always." I promise.

"Forever." Milo nods at me.

"That's the plan." I wink. I'm gonna love this man far past eternity. Until I am no longer able to. Forever and a day.
