Coming Home For Christmas
Chapter 23

Lacey's P.O.V.

"MUM, DAD'S HERE!!"

Dayton shouts.

I walked into the hallway and I was instantly angry when I saw my young son shutting the front door.

"What have I told you three about opening the front door?"

I ask the triplets who were all surrounding their dad like a group of fans.

"You told us not to but it was only our dad, so it's ok"

Dayton said with a wave of his hand.

"No, it's not ok Dayton, what if it was a stranger?"

"But it wasn't, mum"

Dayton clapped back which annoyed me even further.

I've tried to teach my kids all about stranger danger and how dangerous something as simple as opening your own front door can be but it seems to have gone in one ear and straight out of the other.

"You're missing your mom's point, son, you shouldn't be answering the front door because you're way too young, what if it was someone you didn't know?"

Logan asked our son.

"But it was you"

Dayton says and I facepalm.

"I honestly don't see what the problem is, it was just my dad"

Dayton walked away and I looked at my little man baffled.

"How can one be so smart yet so dumb at the same time?"

"I ask that same question every day about Ryker"

Logan says and we both chuckle.

I look down at Logan's hand and see he's holding a white plastic bag with a design on it but I couldn't make out the image.

"What's in the bag?"

"Huh...oh, the kids wanted Chinese food for dinner, so I picked something up for us"

"How do you know the kids wanted Chinese?"

I ask confused.

The kids asked me about an hour ago if we could have Chinese food for our dinner and that was after Logan had left so how did he replace out?.

Maybe I was wrong and he is actually telepathic.

"They texted me"

Logan says nonchalantly and I look at him shocked.

"They texted you?"

"Yeah, look"

Logan pulled his phone out of his pocket and punched in four numbers to unlock it.

I could be mistaken but I swear his passcode is my birthday.

Hmm.

I must be seeing things, I am exhausted after all.

Logan showed me the text Logan Junior had sent him which is odd in enough itself and the text conversation showed him asking his dad if he can pick up food for us and they even had the nerve to give him a list of things they wanted including dessert. "Those cheeky little brats, I can't believe they texted you this"

"Don't be mad, babe, I was coming back here for dinner anyway, I just brought food with me, it's not a big deal"

"Yes it is, Logan, I'll give you the money for it"

I say and Logan chuckles as he leans in and kisses my lips.

"Babe, they're my kids and you're my future wife, it's my job to provide for you all"

"Future wife?"

I ask him and I couldn't control the smile that made it's way onto my face.

Logan and I aren't even dating so marriage is a million miles away from us right now but I still can't help but smile at the thought of being married to him one day.

"Yeah, you're my future wife, you got a problem with that?"

Logan asks with a smirk.

"Yeah I do, you can't marry someone you're not even dating, Logan"

"We'll see, baby, we'll see"

Logan says with a cheeky smile as he wiggles his eyebrows at me, he then kisses my lips once again before heading towards the kitchen.

I followed behind him whilst trying to stop myself from grinning like a Cheshire cat, Logan went straight to the table where the kids were already sitting while I went and got us some plates and cutlery. "Hey, is our son ok?"

"Which one? we've got two Logan"

I say as I grab some drinks from the fridge..

"Logan Junior, he's being nice to me, he's not acting hostile with me anymore"

I briefly look over at my son and smile before looking back at Logan.

"I had a chat with him...I told him he was being hostile with the wrong person and if he was gonna treat anyone like crap then it should be me because I kept you all from each other" "Babe, you were going through a lot"

"It's still not an excuse, Logan...at the least, I should've told you and I didn't and I'll have to live with the regret of not telling you for the rest of my life"

Even though I had good reason to keep my pregnancy a secret, especially when my doctor put me on bed rest, I still shouldn't have kept the triplets a secret from Logan.

I don't know as much about UK laws as I probably should do but I'm pretty sure that a father doesn't have any parental responsibility for the child if he's not married to the mom and or his name isn't on the birth certificate.

Logan's name is on my kid's birth certificates but I highly doubt he would've been able to obtain full custody of our kids from me even despite this because our children are UK citizens and Logan is an American or would he? I don't know, I'm dumb when it comes to legal stuff.

"Don't be silly, babe, I don't blame you for what you did".

Logan said as he cupped my face and kissed my cheek.

I know I should feel happy and relieved that Logan doesn't blame me and isn't angry with me for keeping our kids from him but I don't, he should be pissed with me because I didn't just take five years of their lives away from him but I also took five years of memories, not to mention all of their firsts away from him as well.

Logan and I sat down and had a nice, peaceful dinner with our kids who were firing question after question at us wanting to know all about our families and what they're like and they also wanted to know what New York is like.

"So, you're telling me mummy's got a brother who is wild and mischievous and is always being cheeky? hmm, that reminds me of someone".

"What? why are you looking at me like that, Lo?"

Dayton asks and we all chuckle.

"Have we only got uncles because I really want an auntie?"

"You've got an auntie, Teddy, you've got auntie Carmella and auntie Abby"

"Oh yeah"

Teddy says before going back to her food.

"Actually Teddy, I've got a sister, her name is Rachel and she's your uncle Ryker's twin, you've also got some aunties through most of your uncles as well"

"Really?"

"Yeah, there's your auntie Tiffany who is married to your uncle Ryker, your auntie Sabrina who is married to your uncle Justin and your uncle Liam has got a girlfriend as well"

Logan says and I look at him both in shock and confusion.

"Liam's got a girlfriend?"

I ask him and he nods his head.

"Liam, my Liam, my playboy manwhore brother has got a girlfriend?...has hell frozen over?"

I ask and Logan chuckles.

"What's her name?"

"We'll talk about it later, babe"

He says confusing me even further.

Why won't he tell me now?.

"What about the other guy, Lucas?"

"Luca, Dayton and he doesn't have a girlfriend, he's got a boyfriend"

I say whilst taking a sip of my drink.

I could feel Logan's intense stare on me but I just ignored him.

"He has a boyfriend? what's his name?"

"His name is..."

"Dylan, his name is Dylan".

I cut Logan off because I could tell from the tone of his voice that he wasn't gonna say his actual name.

Logan looks at me with a smirk and I glare at him.

"I can't wait to meet our family now, I've never met a gay person before"

Dayton says excitedly.

"You do realise gay people are just like everyone else, right?"

Logan Junior asks his brother who nods his head.

"Yeah, I know, I'm just saying"

Logan and the kids talked amongst themselves while I just sat in silence, I didn't even realise how silent I was until Logan brought it up.

"Are you ok, love?"

"I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?"

I ask while smiling tiredly at him.

"You're quiet...it's not like you to be so quiet"

"I'm just tired, that's all, it's been a long day"

Logan smiles back at me as he lifts his hand up to my head and gently runs his fingers through my hair.

My eyes instantly closed as my body relaxed from both his touch and also him playing with my hair...

I don't know about anyone else but I love it when someone touches or plays with my hair.

Teddy always loves to do this at the end of the day before she goes to bed and it always helps me to relax and believe it or not, it makes me feel sleepy as well.

I suddenly felt Logan's thick lips against mine which startled me at first but I quickly relaxed and kissed him back whilst trying to stop myself from moaning. Fuck, this man sure knows how to kiss.

Logan may have been a virgin when we had s*x but these lips of his are definitely experienced.

Unfortunately, the kiss didn't last long and Logan pulled away from me but only far enough to rest his forehead against mine.

"What are you doing to me, Logan?"

I whispered against his lips and Logan smiled.

"I'm making you fall for me, love"

Too late, babe, I've already fallen.

"Mummy and daddy are so cute together"

Teddy says all giddily and we both chuckle as Logan kisses my temple.

After dinner, Logan put the kids to bed while I cleaned up downstairs and made sure everywhere was clean and tidy.

I don't want the house to be messy when we leave here tomorrow.

I was putting the dishes away when I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist and I couldn't help the little moan that escaped my mouth when Logan kissed my neck.

I really should stop Logan from being so affectionate with me, especially in front of the kids but I can't because I enjoy it.

I love it when he hugs me and kisses me or wraps his arms around me like he has now.

"I missed your moans, my love"

"You don't remember how I moan"

I say with a chuckle while rolling my eyes.

"Oh, I remember, babe, I could never forget your sweet moans"

Logan says before placing several kisses on my neck.

"Whatever you say"

I turn around to face Logan who was smiling but he had a serious look in his eyes.

"Is everything ok?"

I ask and he nods his head.

"Yeah...can we talk, please, babe? there's something important I wanna discuss with you"

Oh god, what now?.
