Coming Home For Christmas

Lacey's PO.

“Relax baby, you've got nothing to be nervous about"

My delightful husband said whilst trying to relax me as his hand gently stroked over my hip.

Tlooked up at Logan with an are you being serious? expression on my face and he chuckles.

“It's not funny, Logan, my grandparents have just told us they'll soon be announcing not only my return to New York but also our marriage

and our children as well and I don't think I'm ready for this"

“Yes you are love, you're more than ready for this"

lear blue eyes.

“How do I know?"

My husband asked me with a smile on his stupidly handsome face as he gently gripped my chin between his thumb and forefinger.

“Tknow because you're Lacey Black, my wife and you're one of the strongest women I know"

Tam?"

Lask probably sounding like an insecure i***t as Logan nods his head, his smile never faltering as he did.

“When you were at the lowest point in your life, Lace, you left your family, your friends and your city behind and moved to a foreign country

on your own with life growing inside of your stomach, you didn't know that you were carrying three precious babies at the time and even

when you did find this out, babe, you didn't cave in and come back to New York, no you stayed and you built a life for yourself and our

children, that's how I know you're strong, my love, so please don't ever doubt yourself, ok"

“ok

Inod my head and smile when Logan kisses my forehead.

“Good girl"

He says and I smile.

I narrowed my eyes to behind Logan and my heart skipped a nervous beat when I saw Logan's parents graciously walking through the

entrance to the grand hall together.

I didn't think it was fair that they found out about their eldest son's marriage as well as their grandchildren when everyone else did, so

swallowing my fear and panic, I braced myself to tell Logan.

“Babe, your parents are here"

“What?”

“Your parents are here, should we..we should go and tell them about us and the kids before my grandparents announce it"

“You're right"

Logan said as he turned to look at his parents before looking back at me.

"Let's go, babe"

Logan grabbed hold of my hand and led us towards the bar area where David and Ruth Black were currently standing.

Iwas feeling nervous and my heart was racing wildly.

I really didn't wanna do this but I knew that this was something that we needed to do and I'd just be preventing the inevitable if we didn’,

besides, I'm already harbouring a lot of guilt for keeping my babies from their father, I don't want that guilt made worse because I've kept

them from what's rightfully theirs.

So, with my babies at the forefront of my mind, like they always are, I suppressed these feelings and put on my strong facade as the space

between myself and the Black patriarch and matriarch got smaller and smaller.

“Hey mom, dad”

Logan greeted his parents.

David and Ruth Black turned around with huge smiles on their faces as they greeted their son but then a look of shock encased their

features when they saw me.

“Logan darling, you're...Lacey..Lacey sweetheart, is that you?"

"Yes, it is, ma'am, how are you?"

Ruth looked me up and down with a shocked expression on her face as her mouth gaped open at me. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Even David Black was looking at me like he'd just seen a ghost.

“Mom...mom, are you ok?"

“Am ok?"

Ruth whispered as she looked at Logan before looking at me with pure excitement on her face as she embraced me in a hug.

“You're home, you're back home where you belong..I'm not dreaming this, am 1?"

“No, I'm really here"

I'said with a chuckle.

“We were so worried for you, sweetheart, we didn't know where you where or if you were ok, you just took off without so much as a note or

a text left behind”

David said and I felt my guilt intensify.

“I'm sorry, Mr Black, I had to get away, I couldn't stay here and marry a man who didn't want me or wasn't in love with me"

“I don't blame you, honey and to be honest with you, Lacey love, I always shipped you with a certain someone”

Ruth said whilst not so subtly nodding her head towards a smirking Logan.

“And what's with this Mr Black nonsense? am I no longer your uncle, Lacey?"

David asked sounding hurt and offended but he also looked like he was joking as well.

“Actually dad, we were hoping she could call you something else"

“Oh yeah, like what?"

“Like dad"

Logan said and it felt like my heart had stopped beating at his words.

“Dad?..what do you mean, son?"

David asked as he looked between us.

Logan's smirk got bigger and brighter as he came and stood behind me wrapping one of his arms around my waist in a possessive grip as

his free hand grabbed hold of my left hand and lifted it up to his lips kissing my knuckles.

David looked at us with a confused expression while Ruth was looking at us with a hopeful and excited expression.

“Mom, dad, say hello to your new daughter in law"

Logan said all giddily.

“Wait, what? I don't understand”

“Do you remember that wish I made on a shooting star when I was a kid, mom?”

Logan asks confusing both myself and his dad.

“Yeah, you wished that one day Lacey would be your..oh my god"

Ruth gasped as she looked between us both.

“You guys got married?”

“Mmm-hmm"*

Logan said with a cheeky smile on his face.

“I can't believe this...my baby is married and he married the love of his life”

Ruth said with tears in her eyes as she embraced the both of us.

“How did this happen? and when?"

She asks sounding shocked but also excited as well.

“In London right before we came here, we got married in a registry office”

I'say and Ruth's face drops as she glares at her son.

“You married this beautiful girl in a registry office, boy? please, don't tell me this is true, Logan David Black?"

"Twanted her to be my wife, mom"

My grown ass husband says in a whiney childish voice and I chuckle.

“Besides, I plan on giving my girl the wedding of her dreams one day”

Logan says as he leans in and kisses my cheek.

“Ijust can't believe this"

“Is there anything else you two wanna share with us?"

David asks rhetorically but what he didn't know is that we had another pretty big thing to share with them.

“Actually, there is one thing”

I'say nervously.

“It's more like three things, baby"

Logan says confusing his parents.

“What are you two talking about?"

“Well.."

Logan was about to answer his dad when the sound of our child's voice interrupted him.

“MUM! DAD, grandpa Duke and grandma Bunny said it's time"

“Yeah, grams said we had to hurry up because someone called Jim was calling her name"

Oh my god.

“I'm pretty sure, she meant Gin, son, not Jim"

“Because that's any less confusing, dad”

Logan Junior said while rolling his eyes and we chuckled.

“Dad..did this young man just call you dad, Logan?"

“Yeah, he did"

Logan said while smiling proudly.

“You, you said, y.you've got, you've..you, huh"

Ruth said not making any sense.

“Mom, dad...meet your grandchildren, Logan Junior, Dayton and Teddy, kids, meet your grandparents, my parents David and Ruth Black"

David and Ruth looked at the triplets in shock as they looked at their paternal grandparents with confused expressions.

“You've got children?..you've got three..oh my god"

Ruth said whilst holding up three fingers with one hand as her free hand covered her mouth.

“You all have got triplets?..we've got three grandbabies?”

“Why do Americans find it so hard to understand that three kids means triplets?”

Dayton asks whilst looking baffled.

“Don't be so offensive, Dayton, it's not all Americans, it's just this nice lady and that dumb boy from earlier”

Teddy scolds her brother before looking towards Logan's parents.

“Ignore my brother, his brain is smart but his mouth is dumb”

Teddy says and we all chuckle at my blunt as f**k daughter.

“Well, aren't you a beautiful little thing, you look just like your mother when she was a child, except you've got your father's eyes and hair

colour”

"And she's got Lacey's smart mouth too”

Logan's parents say as they look at Teddy in awe.

“Told you so, my queen’

Logan whispers in my ear before kissing below it.

Teddy does look a lot like me but I always felt like she looked more like her father because she looks like her brothers who are Logan's

doubles.

Ilooked down to my right when 1 felt someone grab hold of my hand and I wasn't surprised to see Logan Junior standing as close to me as

humanly possible as he looked at his grandparents with scepticism.

“Logan baby, are you ok?"

Task and he nods his head.

“Grams needs us, mum, we should go’

He says stoically and I gently stroke his hair.

“You're right, baby”

I'say with a sad smile as I look up at my husband.

“Logan we need to go, my grandparents are waiting for us"

"Ok, babe"

Logan says before kissing my temple.

“Can we finish this later, guys? Duke and Bunny need us"

"Of course son but just so you both know, this isn't over with, do you hear me?"

Ruth says with a don't mess with me expression on her face and I mentally roll my eyes.

“Yes mom, come on Lace"

Ismile at my in-laws as Logan leads us away towards the stage.

What I didn't know is that somewhere in the grand hall was a nasty serpent who was slithering around and was completely unaware that she

was about to flip my b***h switch.
