Becks P.O.V

*beep*

*beep*

*beep*

"Ugh" I moaned "Stupid alarm clock"

Without opening my eyes, I reached out my arm to shut off the alarm.

Wait... I didn't have an alarm clock...

The beeping continued at a steady pace, and I opened my eyes.

I was in a small white room. To my left was a heart monitor, which i realized was attached to me.

I sat up quickly and pain shot through my head. The monitor started to beep faster as a wave of panic washed over me.

*beep*

*beep*

*beep*

I tried to calm my breathing, but to no avail.

Suddenly i could hear foot steps coming towards me.

I quickly lay back down, causing another jolt of pain to my head, and closed my eyes.

"Hmmm that's strange..."

A voice hummed.

 "Her breathing patterns clearly indicated that she was awake."

"Should we put her out again?"

a second, female sounding voice joined in.

"Its probably best, get the needle."

Needle? I almost screamed, but I wouldn't dare move or open my eyes.

A sharp pain jabbed my arm, but before I could let out a yelp, my limbs went numb and I fell back into a  dark, dreamless sleep.

~*~*~*~*~

Dai's P.O.V

"Ok Dai, don't panic, you've got this under control." I told myself as I paced the living room floor.

I had gone downstairs to get mom for breakfast because the twins were screaming, and she wasn't there. The bed was still unmade, and her slippers were gone from their usual spot by her bed, indicating that she had gotten up.

I went out to the nursery to see if she had waken up to tend to Mason or Tom, and fell asleep in the rocking chair. The chair was empty and the boys were in their cribs screaming at the top of their lungs for their mom, who was not coming.

I brought the boys downstairs and strapped them in their high chairs. While they were messily eating their cereal, I searched the rest of the house. It was empty except for Lourdes, Jeanie and Maggie who were still sleeping.

I went back and took the boys out of the now sticky highchairs, making a mental note to bathe them later.

"DAI! WHERE IS MOM!" Maggie yelled, running into the kitchen wearing her clothes for school.

"Uh mom is... Gone out to get something somewhere." I said quickly and she regarded me strangely.

"Well get me breakfast! I have school in like, 10 minutes!"

A quick glance at the clock confirmed that it was 10 to 8

"Go wake up your sisters and I will make you breakfast." Maggie rushed up the stairs and I quickly popped some toast in the toaster and poured up 3 glasses of orange juice.

Jeanie and Lourdes sleepily followed Maggie down the stairs, yawning and rubbing their eyes.

"Quick quick! The bus will be here soon!" Maggie directed her sisters to the table and did their hair while they sleepily ate their toast.

"Maggie my hair is fine!" Complained Jeanie who pulled her hair out of the hasty braid her sister had put in it.

All three girls managed to get out the door just as the bus got here, and I was left to clean up their mess and tend to the twins.

Before I knew it, it was five 'o clock in the evening and I was exhausted. The twins were napping and I was just about to nap myself, when I remembered.

I had a date with Adele tonight!!

I quickly jumped off the couch and into some nice clothes, brushed my teeth, and grabbed the small black box I had been hiding under my pillow since Adele aged up.

As soon as the babysitter got to the house I drove across the street to pick up Adele for our date.

Adele was wearing a beautiful flowy dress and heeled boots. She had her curled hair pinned up, the way she knew I liked it best.

She got into the car and I leaned over and kissed her.

"Hey Dai"

"Hey Beautiful"

I kissed her again and she giggled.

"Well your quite the romantic tonight, Dai"

I smiled.

"Thats because tonight its just you and me"

"And not my dad"

"And not your dad" we both laughed.

Last night at my party when I aged up, I had been looking forward to spending time with Adele. The problem was, somehow, no matter where we went in the house to kiss, Logan always found us and broke it up.

We held hands in silence the rest of the way to our destination, a lovely boardwalk park in the center of town. The main attraction of the park was a 60 foot high viewing platform with a telescope.

We walked hand in hand down the board walk in the fading light.

"Do you believe in God Adele?"

Adele looked up from the ground and looked into my eyes.

"Yes, I do"

"Do you believe he picked out the perfect name for you?"

Adele's dark green eyes searched mine and her brow furrowed.

"I guess so, I mean I never really liked my name, but I believe that God chose it for me."

I gripped her hand tighter.

"You know, the letters in everyone's names have a special meaning. I can tell you yours if you want?"

Adele smiled.

"Sure, Dai, I would love that."

"Well," I began, turning around to face her holding both her hands in mine.

"The A stands for Adele, plain and simple, and the D stands for Dai."

Adele blushed and she looked at her feet.

"E stands for Eternally. L for Loving. E for Eachother. A, D, E, L, E. Adele and Dai eternally loving eachother."

Adele smiled one of those smiles I love so much and looked into my eyes again.

"Thats so sweet Dai!"
I kissed her and lead her towards the viewing platform.

"There is one more thing I want to show you." I smiled and she followed me up the stairs.

When we finally got to the top, Adele wrapped her arms around my neck and I gently held her waist with my hands. Our breathing was still heavy from the climb and the cool air felt good on my skin.

"The stars are beautiful here Dai!"  Adele kissed me and I pulled away.

"Dai?" Adele started to say but stopped when I went down on one knee.

"Oh my..." Adele stood speechless as I pulled the black box out of my jacket pocket.

"Adele, ever since I first met you, when we were toddlers, you made my heart flutter like butterfly wings, and I could never understand why.

 As we grew older, I realized that I didn't want to be just friends with someone who made me feel so happy and light. That first day we kissed, at the beach, even though we were just kids,  I knew I wanted to be with you forever. 

I needed you, my beautiful fairy princess, in my life until the end of time. The whole time we were teens, my love for you only grew stronger, and when we shared ourselves with each other that night I had never been happier.

I know we already discussed this, but I want to make it official. 

Adele, will you marry me?"

Adele's hands flew to her face and tears ran from her eyes. I opened the box to reveal a beautiful engagement ring, a gold band with a magnificent diamond set in it. 

She pried a hand away from her face and I delicately slid the ring on her finger.

Without even stopping to admire the jewel, she fell into my arms and our lips locked together, mine made to fit seamlessly into hers. 

"Yes. Forever yes. I love you Dai" Adele broke away long enough to whisper her response into my ear and we kissed again, our love burning brighter than the stars in the sky.

~*~*~*~*~

"WHERE IS MY MOM. SHE MISSED WILLARDS TEA PARTY TODAY"

Mia's shout and the slam of the door made Adele and I jump away from each other where we were making out on the couch.

"Mia! Shouldn't you be in bed?"
Mia placed her hands on her hips.

"It's only 9:30 Dai, I'm not two years old"
Adele raised her eyebrow and I sighed.
"So? Where is my mom?"
I was about to say she was just upstairs, but then I remembered.

"Ummmm I don't really know......"
Adele looked at me concerned and Mia's eyes widened.

"YOU LOST MY MOM?"
Maggie, Jeanie and Lourdes ran down the stairs.

"What does Mia mean? Did you really loose mom!?"
Maggie exclaimed and Lourdes crossed her arms.

"How come Mia doesn't have to go to bed at 8?"
I ran a hand through my hair.

"I really don't know what happened to her or where she is. She was gone when I woke up but I didn't say anything because I thought she would have been home by now! I don't know what to do!"
I almost broke down in tears and Adele wrapped her arms around my waist.



"Did you call my dad and aunt Chloe yet? Maybe she went to visit them?"
Adele slipped my phone out of my pocket and dialed the number to the cabin where Logan and Chloe were staying.
"Hey dad! Is Becks there with you? No.... No everything's fine! Yup, positive. Love you too, bye."
Adele closed the phone with a frown.
"Nope, they haven't seen her since they left."



I buried my face in my hands before calling the only other person I could think of, my sister Cassandra.
"Hey Cassy, its me, Dai. Yeah, um well... Mom is missing. No I didn't call the police yet. Ok, see you soon."
"Cassandra and Robin are coming."
I said and Lourdes walked up to me, tears in her green eyes. I lifted her into my arms and hugged her.
"Don't worry. We will find mom"

Have a Very Merry Christmas!

Becks P.O.V

Waking up was now just as hard as falling asleep. Rolling over to find no warm body on the other side of the bed, crying myself to sleep.

I had to be strong though. If I wanted Maggie Jeanie and Lourdes back I needed to be strong.

Mason's cries echoed through the now seemingly empty house. I hauled myself out of bed to go get him. Natalie had reluctantly left the day before, after much begging and promising that I could look after the boys myself.

I got to the nursery and Mason was standing up in his crib, shaking the gate and screaming. I lifted him up out of the crib and checked on Tom, who was still sound asleep. That boy could sleep through anything. I rocked Mason back and forth in my arms.

"Whats wrong sweetie?" I cooed

"Mason hungry!!" He whispered and I brought him downstairs for some food. I was just giving Mason his bottle when Tom woke up and started screaming, much like his brother. I made a grunting noise and headed back upstairs. When I got there, Tom was sitting on the floor, playing with his bear.

"Tom! How did you-"

"SURPRISE!!"

Chloe jumped out from behind a crib almost giving me a heart attack.

"CHLOE! WHAT THE HELL" I screamed and she laughed

"I had to make a delivery" She pulled out a gift box and shoved it into my arms.

"Now, go put that on before Logan gets here with the children!" Chloe pushed me out of the nursery.

I went to my room, contemplating whether giving Chloe keys to my house was a good idea. Inside the gift box was a red Christmas sweater. I pulled it on along with a pair of pants and went downstairs, taking down and not bothering to do anything else with my hair.

I got downstairs just as Logan walked in the door. We looked at each other awkwardly and then quickly at Chloe, who had a devious smile on her face.

Chloe had gotten Logan and I matching Christmas sweaters.

I made a mental note to remind myself to kill her later.

Before either of us could say anything, Mia ran into the house.

"MOM!" She screamed and jumped into my arms. "I missed you SO MUCH! LOOK! I lost my teeth!!! The tooth fairy gave me 10 WHOLE DOLLARS!! 5 for each tooth!"

Mia gave me a huge smile to reveal her two missing teeth.

"Oh my goodness! That's awesome Mia!" I smiled and the other kids came in.

"MOM!" The rest of the kids dog piled me, before Logan could say 'Be Careful'

"Becks!" Logan yelped and quickly pulled Chance off the top of the pile.

"Guys! Be careful with your mom! You're not as small as you used to be!"

Logan got the rest of the kids off of me and helped me up.

"Now say sorry" Logan looked at Lourdes, Maggie, Jeanie and Chance who all chimed "Sorry" in unison.

I got a kiss from each of my girls and a hug from Chance.

"Your not going to give mommy a kiss Chance?" I asked and he shook his head.

"Mommy, I'm a big boy now, and big boys don't kiss their mommys. And girls have cooties anyways."

I pulled him into a big hug and kissed his cheek. "Your never too big to give your mommy a kiss" I whispered in his ear and he ran off to play with his siblings in the living room.

~*~*~*~*~

It was almost suppertime and Jeanie was helping me make Christmas dinner, while Lourdes played silent night on the piano, one she had quickly learned when she heard that it was my favorite Christmas song.

Chance was setting the table while Maggie and Lourdes played with Mason and Tom.

The house smelled amazing and all of my kids were happy, I couldn't have asked for more as Jeanie helped me cook.

Mia and Logan got home from getting some last minute things and Mia ran over to me.

"Mom! Look! It's snowing!!!"

I gave her a strange look.

"Mia... I don't think it snows in Sunlit Tides..."

I looked at Logan and he shook his head.

"Nope, she is telling the truth! We are getting a white Christmas, come see!"

I reluctantly followed Mia and Logan outside and sure enough, fluffy white flakes of snow were falling from the sky, and a bit had already accumulated on the ground.

Mia came over and I lifted her into my arms.

"Its a Christmas miracle mom!" She chimed

"Yes, Mia, it most certainly is!"

~*~*~*~*~

Logan and I returned home from Natalie's Christmas party and tucked the kids into bed, before heading downstairs to be "Santa's".

After all of the gifts were under the tree Logan and I lay on the couch and looked at the tree.

Logan handed me a letter. "This came for you today in the mail, its from Eliza."

I took the letter and opened it. I pulled out a card with a dog eating birthday cake on the front and opened it only to be showered with confetti.

"Happy Birthday Little Sis! Love: Eliza xoxo" I smiled and closed the card.

"What!? When was your birthday? Did I miss it?" Logan asked me looking worried. I shook my head. "Actually... My birthday is today..."

Logan was in shock. "Your birthday is today, on Christmas eve, and you never told me! I didn't even get to get you a present!"

"Its ok, you don't have to give me a present! Its just a birthday."

"Nonsense!" Logan stood up and pulled me off the couch.

"Let me take you to the park to go skating!It will be fun"

I frowned. "But what about the kids? Someone needs to stay with them."

"Adele and Dai are here, they can keep an eye on the kids"

I reluctantly agreed and after Logan told Dai and Adele where we were going, we left.

~*~*~*~*~

(*Side note: You all know whats going to happen here, Dai and Adele are home alone... Its kind of obvious. If it isn't obvious, you are too young to be reading this. If you don't like this kind of thing, skip this part in Dai's P.O.V, this is a fair warning)

Dai's P.O.V

"Why don't we go outside?" I suggested

"Dai, its freezing cold and there is snow on the ground! What would we do outside?"

"I know where mom keeps the keys to the lock on the fence with the hot tub...."

Adele's eyes widened. "Dai, i'm not getting in the hot tub! Its freezing cold out there!"

"That's why its called a hot tub! Come on it will be awesome, I promise."

"Ok...."

Adele went to change into her swim suit while I changed into mine. She returned wearing a revealing red bikini that looked amazing on her. Well, everything looks amazing on her, but when she came out in that bikini my heart leaped in my chest.

"Ready?"

"Uh.. Yup!" I stuttered and we headed out to the hot tub.

Neither of us hesitated to get out of the cold air and into the hot water. We sat in the hot tub trying to keep as much of our bodies underwater as possible. I wrapped my arm around Adele, who looked gorgeous with her cheeks a bright red from the cold. I kissed her passionately and she kissed me back.

I pulled her body closer to mine and held her face in my hands our lips melting together in the heat radiating from the water.

Then, Adele undid her bikini top and let it fall into the water. When she started to push down my shorts I stopped her.

"Adele, are you sur--"

She placed two fingers on my lips to cut me off and looked deeply into my eyes.

"I trust you Dai" Adele whispered and she pushed off my shorts and pressed her body up against mine.

Adele's hands ran up and down my back and mine hers, any space between us had dissapeard as we held each other. Adele's hot breath on my cold neck made me shiver in pleasure, this was perfect.

I thrust my body into hers, and she let a moan of pleasure. Her whole body started to glow red, and then mine, but I wasn't scared. Adele was mine and I was hers, and I would do anything for her.

"I love you Adele" I whispered in her ear when we broke apart.

"I love you too Dai"

I held her in my arms and suddenly I was overcome with my feelings.

"Will you marry me Adele?" The words escaped my mouth before I could close it.

Adele let go of me and looked at me with a surprised look on her face.

"Not.. Not now! But you know, when we get older. I love you Adele, you are my everything and I couldn't bear to spend a moment without you. I want to spend forever with you."

I stopped and searched her face for a response.

"Oh Dai..." Adele stared into my eyes with her deep green ones.

"I'm sorry... You don't have to give me an answer now...."

Adele smiled. "Of course I wan't to be with you forever you silly boy. I love you Dai."

I let out a sigh of relief and we both smiled.

We went inside and fell asleep together on my bed, dreaming of spending the rest of our lives together.

~*~*~*~*~

"MOM! MOM! Wake up! Santa came!!"

I opened my eyes to see Maggie in my room, shaking in excitement.

"There are so many presents! Come on!"

" I'm coming!!" I assured Maggie before getting out of bed.

She ran excitedly out of my room. 

For the first time since Jed died, I had no trouble falling asleep or staying asleep the night before.

Logan and I had a wonderful time skating, even though we both fell more than once and I don't think Logan's pride was the only thing he hurt by the way he was rubbing his back.

He kept in good spirits, loudly yelling "I'M OK!" every time he fell. 

It was the best birthday I could remember.

I smiled as I walked downstairs to see all of the kids in their pajamas waiting to open their gifts. 

Logan had even gotten Tom and Mason down to the living room in their matching Christmas pajamas.

As they opened their gifts, I admired my beautiful family and amazing friends. The smiles on their faces when they got what they wanted made me happier than ever.

I looked at Mason and Tom playing with their teddy bears and smiled. "Merry Christmas" I whispered,

"Merry Christmas"
