Fynn quickly changed into a pair of cotton night pants with vintage style rugby shirt that she had picked up at a local flea market. She ran a brush through her hair letting it fall around her face,"Why am I nervous?", she laughed to herself. She had been alone with Neil plenty of times, it was nothing new. She looked at her left hand and realized where the nerves came from. Without the wedding set, there was a finality that she was a single mother and that she was beginning to start over. She took a deep breath before sliding into a pair of flip flops and making her way downstairs. She spotted Neil out on the porch sipping a mug of tea. He lounged easily on the porch swing, his arm across the back, dressed in a pair of worn jeans and black t-shirt. Just seeing him in the relaxed state brought a smile to her face and quickening of her pulse.
"Mia back to sleep?", Neil asked as Fynn came outside.
"Yeah, she wanted to talk for a few minutes," she replied sitting next to him.
"Mug of tea", he said handing her the small mug from the window sill.
"Thanks", she said taking a sip.
"What did she want to talk about?"
"Just about her day and that she had a good time."
"I really enjoyed being able to be with both of you today. You allowing me to be such a part of both of your lives."
"She did ask me", Fynn began with a smile.
"Asked you what?"
"If you were going to be her new daddy."
"R...really.........", he stammered.
"Really!", she laughed,"It was really very sweet. She has it all figured out according to how the princess movies always work."
"Do explain", he chuckled.
"Apparently in the movies, the princess meets the prince, they fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after."
"So that's how it all works!", he said with mock surprise,"all this time I have been doing it wrong."
Fynn held her stomach as she laughed,"And now we know how it works according to the mind of a six year old."
"I think she is onto something though", he took her hands in his,"I noticed you took your rings off."
"Yeah," she said looking at their fingers intertwined,"This afternoon before the movie."
"What made you decide to take them off?"
She sighed and brought her eyes level with his,"You did."
"Me?"
"Yes you", she smiled,"Because I realized for the first time in nearly a year that I am happy. You have made me that happy and watching you with Mia. You are beyond wonderful with her and knowing that you support me and all your patience."
"Must say I am flattered," he grinned,"All I have to say is that I love you Fynn and I love Mia. Being able to work on us as a couple and the three of us as a family has been something I never would have imagined and something that I have enjoyed."
"I agree", she tried to stifle a yawn,"Sorry."
"No worries," he kissed her temple,"Let's go inside", he took her hand in his as they made their way inside,"We can put on a movie, or just put the telly on."
"That works for me", she grabbed the remote as Neil turned off the lights,"What are you doing?"
"I think I am making the room a little more romantic", he said sitting next to her and pulling her into his arms.
"I like it", she said turning into his embrace as their lips met.

Love how Fynn explained to Neil about her talk with Mia! And I'm surprised Neil did not spit out the tea he was drinking when Fynn told him about what Mia said about him! I'm also glad Fynn came clean about taking off her wedding set! But the best part of this update was the romantic kiss at the end!

The days in Bray blurred together until it was realized that there was merely two short weeks before the vacation would be over. Fynn watched as Neil and Mia searched the hard packed sand for sea shells, her eyes shaded by sunglasses. The two of them looked like a father and daughter laughing and closely examining their finds. She couldn't shake the thoughts that had been coursing through her mind, what would happen when they left? She and Neil and talked some about possibilities, but had not agreed on anything. She worried for Mia, she didn't want to put her through the seperation that was rapidly approaching. She knew there would be tears and copious amounts of explaning. She sighed pulling out her camera and standing up. Behind the lens was where she felt safe and felt herself. All her effort was on capturing Neil and Mia as they strolled hand in hand.
"Mommy has her camera again", Mia said with a hand on her hip.
"Think she was taking pictures of us?", Neil questioned with a smile.
"She is always taking pictures", she sighed.
Fynn held a hand over her mouth trying not too laugh,"Sorry baby girl, but you are just so cute!"
"Are we going to make a picture book like my baby one?"
"If you want munchkin", Fynn ruffled her damp hair playfully.
"Can I help with the book?", Neil asked.
"Yeah! Mommy has stickers and stuff to make it pretty. You can see my baby book, it's at home in Virginia. I like to look at it sometimes."
"I would like that a lot", he flashed a grin at Fynn,"Been meaning to talk to your mum about coming to Virginia anyway."
"Oh really?", Fynn raised her eyebrows at him.
"Mia, are you hungry at all?", he looked down at her.
"A little", she shrugged.
"Let's head home & eat some lunch."
"Avoiding?", Fynn asked softly him softly.
"Waiting", he said with a wink.
They walked back to the house and made lunch for Mia and themselves. Soon after eating Mia fell asleep on the couch while watching a cartoon. Fynn kissed the side of her head and pulled a small blanket over her. She made her way back to the kitchen and started cleaning up.
"Any plans for the evening?", Neil asked sitting on the edge of the counter.
"Not really, Mia's sleeping and she's been outside a lot today. We'll probably stay in and cook some dinner."
"Well, I have plans", he smiled mischieviously.
"Really?", she looked at him.
"Sure do, but they will only work if I have a date."
"Are you asking me?", she let a smile slowly spread across her face.
"Guess I am", he slid off the counter and slipped his arms around her waist,"Just so happens I have tickets to a concert this evening."
"And what concert would that be?", she tried to keep her racing pulse under control as his fingers traced lazy circles over the skin at the small of her back.
"Think back to Pizza Palace", he enjoyed the way her face was glowing a slight pink and how her skin was growing warm.
"You are kidding me right?"
"Nope, you, me, and really great seats to the West Life show this evening."
"Neil!", she practically squealed before getting herself under control,"I can't believe you got us tickets to see them."
"Thought we could make an evening of it", he trailed soft kisses along her jaw and down her neck,"Dinner, the show," he kissed her softly,"maybe drinks after."
"Sounds like a lovely time", she felt her back meet the counter top as his lips found hers. Every time he kissed her there was a new fire ignited deep within her. A flame that at times she wanted to extinguish, but at this moment she gave herself over to the rising heat as his fingers threaded themselves in her hair. Neil couldn't resist allowing his lips to linger against hers, the puzzle piece that he needed and wanted was her. This part of life he had only dreamed about was in front of him with sweet, dreamy, hazel eyes. He knew that this vacation had been what they needed. The time together, becoming a family. Family, he nearly smiled at the thought, but couldn't bare to break their kiss. They were a family, it was going to take more work, but he knew would give everything to have Fynn and Mia in his life.
"Why is it we are always interrupting?", Lauren scolded lightly with a laugh.
"Didn't hear you", Fynn said running a hand through her hair as Neil kept his arms around her.
"By the way, you two are on kid duty tonight", Neil said with a smile.
"Thanks for asking?", lauren looked at him.
"Nah, I told him we would", Keith said placing a bag of groceries on the table.
