***Milo's POV***

Cash waddles across the bed, tumbling forward on his face. Picking up our chubby pooch, I kiss his head while snuggling his chunky rolls into my chin. The dog eats like he has a tapeworm.

The veterinarian says he is perfectly healthy. The way his belly scoots across the surface beneath him when he walks determines this to be a lie. Instead of cutting his caloric intake, we have initiated an exercise plan for our pudgy pup.

I throw his toy around the yard, laughing profusely as his fat ass make it's way to the toy. My favorite thing is when he grabs a bit of speed. His feet go faster than his body; Cash ends up face down ass up in the plush green grass.

"Up. Up. Up." I push Cash to the side while kissing Neko in between demands.

"I'm up baby. Calm down." Batman wraps his arms around me, dipping me into his lap as he kisses my lips softly. Greedy as I am, I chase that delicious tongue as Neko makes it snake in and out of my mouth.

"Graduation." The word falls from my lips as a smile forms on my face. My husband is finishing up his schooling. Im so ducking proud of him.

Neko has worked so hard. Excelling in every single course, he has two job offers at some ritzy places in town. He hasn't made his mind up on which he is taking, if any. Neko really has struggled with the choice of leaving Luke's company at all. As always, Luke is ultra supportive. He told Neko to do whatever made him happy.

I'm confident that Neko will be taking one of the job offers. My man loves to cook. He's passionate, that reflects in every dish he creates.

It has been sort of a time warp for me. One minute we are signing up for classes. The next minute we are preparing to celebrate my husband, his accomplishments and everything he has managed to balance during this stressful time.

I still have years of schooling ahead of me. If I'm being honest, I am already burnt out. I miss my man, my friends and the freedom to make my own schedule without deadlines.

I have contemplated just being a stay at home dad. While Neko was one hundred percent supportive for that idea, I at least want a degree. Something about having that piece of paper makes me smile. So, for now I will continue on this extremely time consuming journey.

My eyes roam across the muscles in Neko's back. He walks around plundering through the room for the things he needs this morning. An early graduation will be followed by another day with our group. I'm all for the concept. Like I said, this guy misses his friends.

The front door opens, immediately announcing we have company. Jumping from the bed, I hurry to get into the living room. I'm greeted by a very pregnant Natalie. Max stands behind her; his hands grip her hips to steady our tiny mother hen.

Reaching for Natalie's hand, I pull her towards me for a hug. The baby kicks so hard I feel her through my shirt. A chuckle leaves my lips. That kid is a ninja. I live watching Nat's belly as Baby Isla does turns, kicks and smacks around in her mommy's belly.

"How are you feeling?" I softly look to Natalie as she huffs out her frustration. Nat has grown increasingly more uncomfortable as the due date edges closer. Our friends graduated last month. It has been a struggle for both Nat and Max with exams, doctor appointments and the early onset of Braxton Hicks contractions.

A couple of times we have been sitting at the hospital waiting for little Isla to make her grand entrance into this big world. However, thankfully it has just been a close call experience. I think that is the most taxing on our young couple. They are just as ready, probably more, as all of us to see their tiny bundle of joy.

"I'm ready. Just waiting. I'm not a patient person Bean. I'm not." Natalie shakes her head to punctuate her confession. I know. Believe me I do.

"It won't be much longer now baby. I promise." Max turns Nat around in his arms. His palms cup her face. Max pulls Natalie closer until Nat's feet lift, elevating her to her tip toes. Nat nods into the kiss as a tiny mumble leaves her puckered lips. I could swear she just said it was all his fault.

Not wanting to stir the pot, I let the words disappear behind their kiss. I love watching them together. Their love is adorable. Natalie wears the pants in that relationship. Max wouldn't have it any other way.

The door opens again. Lux walks through while pressing kisses along Kyle's neck. It swats his boyfriend away playfully. We all know Ky would rather nothing more than Lux to continue his assault of adoration. With a wave of his fingers, Ky greets me. I smile before turning to pick Cash up. He has to go outside before we leave. I don't want him having accident four hundred and whatever all over our floor.

I sweat our pup has marked every inch of this hike in his scent. It's disgusting. I love the little stinker regardless.

Neko walks out looking every bit of the handsome god that he is. I smirk before sidling up next to my husband. My palms run the course of his muscular chest. Neko sweeps down to kiss my lips causing all sorts of electricity to travel through my body, straight to my eager groin.

Batman kisses me on the tip of my nose with a gentle swat to my ass. The pop also goes to my groin ushering a tiny moan of pleasure from my lips. Neko winks at me while I smile devilishly at my stunning partner.

After the long drive to the stadium where graduation will be held, we take a bathroom break. Neko parts from our group to get to the line where he will walk the stage. His cap and gown are a compliment to his tan skin.

We take our seats in the guest area. Nat groans while lowering herself into her chair. My heart pangs over the discomfort my sweet friend must endure.

The ceremony is long. Much like high school graduations, we have to listen to endless speeches. Neko blows me a kiss as he accepts the certificate marking the end of his journey. Pride beams throughout me while watching my husband get his degree.

When the whole occasion is over, our group heads back to our town. We meet at a swanky restaurant to commemorate Neko's success. Gifts are passed to the new graduate. Neko accepts them with an outpouring of gratitude.

The adults in our lives, our personal cheer committee, give endless praise for everything that my Batman has handled. I second each statement, co-signing my adoration for my love. Neko smiles proudly, taking in his own personal moment to shine.

By the end of dinner, I am stuffed. My feet ache, exhaustion begins to set in. I almost don't want to go on the third leg of our journey. However, for Batman I persevere. Natalie even joins in our antics as she waddles around the amusement park.

Like the childish, overgrown kids we are, we ride the rollercoasters. Bad idea. My stomach lurches as the full force of gravity slams me back against the cold plastic seat. Thank god for safety belts. I just know I would have flailed out of that coaster without the restraint.

Natalie watches from below. I can see her smile while tracking the coasters trajectory.  Her hand waves as we come to a stop at the corner of one railing. Without thinking, I lift my arm to wave back. The roller coaster projects forward, shifting me sideways into Neko.

Neko laughs heartily. His arm secures me into his side. A deep breath expels from me. When the ride ends, I make a production of hugging the ground. This sends our crowd into a fit of laughter. Everyone is aware I am not a fan of heights. This is purely a sacrifice of love.

"You tired?" Neko looks me over. His hand caresses the side of my face. I lean into his touch. I don't believe o could ever get tired of feeling his hands upon my skin. I'm enamored with my husband.

Nodding my head, I silently agree. Neko announces the end of the night. A quiet thank you moves off of my lips. We say goodbye to our friends before taking our leave to head back to the house.

Cash greets us at the door, you hanging playfully from his mouth. With a sigh, I pick out baby up to take him for his evening potty break. Neko follows behind me, wrapping his muscular arms around my waist. I set Cash down on the ground before straightening out to lay my body against Neko's chest.

"I love you Batman." My lips press gently against Neko's bicep. "I'm so damn proud of you."

Thank you. You're the one I wish to impress." Neko pulls my chin up. I spin around in his arms. When our lips seam together, I melt against his frame. Neko delivers a passionate kiss, stealing my breath while his fingers thread into my hair.

Every nerve ending burns in anticipation for our night together.

Cash whimpers below us signaling that he is ready to seek comfort from the chill in the air. I scoop the baby up into my arms, reluctantly pulling away from my love. When Cash snuggles into his bed, head burrowed deep in his blanket, we say good nite to our dog child.

Neko pulls me along with him to our room. My back hits the bed with a soft thud. Neko's massive body falls over me, caging me below him. My hands find purchase on his smooth skin, enjoying the shiver that follows my touch.

His kisses land with intent. Every brush of his lips cause small mewls of pleasure to leave my chest. He stares down on me as if I were the most angelic being to exist.

With whispered I love Yous, we merge our bodies together. The ecstasy is immediate, euphoric. Soft touches become greedy greedy claims. My mouth suckles every inch of flesh that I can manage, leaving a trail of hickeys in my wake.

Neko places his own possessive marks on my flesh. The intensity in which he enters me, pulls away and slams back inside is exhilarating. By the time we both release, my eyes are fighting gravity.

Neko picks me up, carrying me towards the shower. My ass throbs from his delicious pounding. On trembling legs, I balance against Batman. He works soap down my body and shampoo through my hair. After drying off, the bed is a welcoming luxury.

Slipping into the man of my dreams arms, I curl against his chest. Neko places his palm on my head. His lips press against my forehead. My safety net holds me tenderly with arms meant for security.

We whisper secrets, ambitions, plans and love between our drifting minds. My eyes lose their will to stay open. With evening breaths we succumb to the lure of sleep.

A blaring noise jostles me from my slumber. Frantically, I reach for my phone in an attempt to silence the fucker before it awakens my sleeping husband.

Max name lights the screen up. My fingers lazily slide the screen to answer my best friend.

The panicked breaths of Max wake me from my groggy stare. I attempt to calm him with futile words.

"Stay calm." I breathe out the phrase as I turn the lights on in our room.

Neko stirs, sitting up with an incredulous groan. His eyes adjust to the light while I stand to find out clothes.

Tossing my husband his joggers and a t shirt, I listen to Max. The heavy panting in the background clues me in that we are done with sleep for the night.

"On our way." I close my phone off. Looking at my Batman I release a breath followed by a sweet smile of excitement.

"It's time." My head nods to my husbands statement.

With those few words, we race towards the hospital to prepare for Isla Alexis Wallace.
