Austin smiled as she kissed him. "Of course. I want to sleep next to my wife tonight," Austin announced as he looked at her. "And I mean that." He then kissed her again, this time for a long few minutes.

Chloe fell tears form in her eyes and a smile cross her face. “I love you” she whispered to him as she kissed him with so much love that showed him how happy she was to have him home. A few hours later, Chloe pulled into the ranch drive way behind Austin. She smiled and got out of the car, kissing him again, as he carried Lia inside in her car seat. “You did it” Molly said, when Chloe and Austin walked through the door of the house. Chloe smiled. “And…we have some news as well” Chloe said. “Baby number 2…is on the way again” she said. “Oh Chloe!” Moly exclaimed, hugging her best friend.

Placing his hand on Aidan's shoulder, Austin looked at his best friend. "I am sorry about earlier. I should have listen to you about what I was doing wrong."
"Hey, we all have done stupid things in our lives. We learn from them. Maybe your relationship with Chloe will be stronger now," Aidan said with a nod. He then hugged Austin like he was his brother and turned to Chloe. "Congrats on the new baby."

Chloe smiled. “Thank you” she said, as she put her arm around Austin. Chloe felt like yawning. It was really late. They had stopped for dinner on the way home and Molly had taken Lia upstairs. “I think I’m going to go head upstairs.” Chloe said. “I’ll see you in the morning Aidan” Chloe said before heading upstairs and into their room. She sat down on the bed and then lay back with a sigh. All the events of that day…Chloe sat up and put her pjs on before getting back into bed and starting to cry.

"Baby? Is everything alright?" Austin asked when he came upstairs for the night. He had noticed her crying as he laid in bed next to her, after taking his shoes off and wrapping an arm around her. He kissed the top of her head as he rocked her a little.

“I’m scared” Chloe whispered. “Yes…I’m pregnant, but…I can’t help but think…that when we go in for the first ultrasound….they won’t find the heartbeat and I really won’t be pregnant” Chloe said as she looked at Austin as tears fell down her cheeks.

"If it comes to that, we will get through it together. If not, we will be happy, I promise you," Austin said as he reached up to her and moved a strand of hair behind her ear. "I am not leaving for a couple of weeks. We have each other," Austin whispered into her ear.

Chloe nodded and smiled as she lay her head on Austin’s shoulder. “I missed you so much” she said, forgetting everything that had happened earlier that day. “I really do love you” she said, as she slowly fell asleep on her pillow, her head close to Austin, holding his hand.

Austin had fallen asleep that night with her in his arms, still in his uniform. He did not wake up until about three as he looked at Chloe. He closed his eyes for a moment as he tried to will away what he had done a few days ago. But it was something that was going to haunt him forever.

Chloe yawned and woke up the next morning to Austin not in bed beside her. She sat up. “Babe?” She called, worry noticeable in her voice. When he didn’t answer, worry began flooding Chloe’s mind. “What if he’s with Emily again…” Chloe said to herself. “What if…he never comes back” she mumbled. “H-he promised he loved me….what If…” that what if never finished, as Austin walked into the room. Chloe let out a sigh of relief and her head hit her pillow

Austin came into the bedroom in his towel after getting out of the shower. He needed to get dressed so that he could get back to work on the ranch. "Chloe?" He asked as he looked at her. "Is everything alright? You look like you have seen a ghost." He walked over to her side of the bed and sat down even though he was in nothing but a towel. His skin still warm from the hot water.

“I didn’t see you in bed next to me…so…my mind got thinking” Chloe mumbled. “It was stupid, but I was starting to think you left me” she admitted. “I…I just…” Chloe stopped. “I love you” she finally said. “And….I know that what you did was a mistake….” Chloe said. “And you know I forgive you” she promised.

"I would never leave you, baby unless I had to for work," Austin answered as he grabbed Chloe's hand. "And plus, Emily lives in Denver. How would I leave you to get to Denver to where ever the Demons she lives in the city," Austin said as he pulled Chloe close to him.

Chloe nodded and smiled before she kissed him deeply. “Lia missed her daddy” Chloe said. “Why don’t you go wake her up and give her some breakfast” Chloe suggested, before kissing her amazing husband again. At that moment, Lia began crying. “Dada” she wailed, waiting for Austin to come get her

"well...I need to get dressed first since I just got out of the shower," Austin said when he heard Lia begin to cry. He got up from the bed and walked to the closet to get dressed and then headed to Lia's room. "What is wrong, Lia?" Austin asked as he picked her up.
