2 Years Later.

My eyes snap open, I look over at my sleeping husband. His head laying on the pillow and I giggle at his long, messy hair sticking out in many different directions. His eyes are closed but his lip trembles slightly.

Suddenly his eyebrows pinch together and he scowls adorably in his sleep. "Babe, baby..." he whines sleepily.

I smile, shaking my head and fling the covers off me, stretching my body. Reese had a late concert last night, coming home way after midnight and knocking out as soon as his head touched the pillow.

We still have a busy schedule, it gets a little hectic at times but we manage just fine. It blows us away how after all this time we're still popular in the music industry. I've had four number one albums and Reese has just brought his third solo album out which he is currently touring for.

I'm so proud of him and he's been an amazing husband over the last two years.

I tiptoe towards the little crib and glance over the wooden frame to see my teary-eyed baby boy whining, his little face flushed red and he kicks his arms and legs out, demanding attention.

I kneel, rubbing Masen's hair as he wails. "It's okay baby, mama's here," I coo. He needs a diaper change, no doubt.

I reach out and hold my baby son in my arms as he shifts and yawns. He stops crying immediately when I hold him to my chest. It works almost every time.

He's such a good baby.

He's the most precious thing I could ever wish for. He has light golden locks and wide ice-blue eyes, his bare feet half the size of my hand. He's incredible. He's mine.

I kiss his chubby cheeks a few times, trying to wake him up as he lazily gazes at me. My heart melts just watching him.

Pulling out the sippy cup laying beside me, I put it to his lips, his eyes finally opening, and drinking the milk.

"Good boy," I smile softly.

Our little boy has just turned six months old. He looks just like his father without the eye colour and golden curly hair he inherited from me. Although I dye my hair white blonde, my natural colour is golden blonde.

He is beautiful. I'm so blessed to have such a perfect little family.

I quietly hum a song to my sweet boy as a dark presence looms over me. Reese leans over, blinking his eyes awake. "Is my boy okay?" he yawns.

He grazes his finger over Masen's chubby cheek and then Masen giggles hysterically watching his dad over my shoulder. Such a daddy's boy.

Reese places a kiss on my forehead and then leans his head in the crook of my neck, staring at our baby.

It's been such an extraordinary few years together. We've explored the world, travelling and performing. We got married in our hometown in LA and we went on a luxurious honeymoon in Hawaii. Reese proposed to me on stage, live during an award ceremony in LA.

I had no idea he was planning to propose. At the time I remember thinking how lucky I was -- I didn't think it was possible to love him more.

He showers me with love and happiness every day. He's gentle, patient, sweet, and caring.

We couldn't wait to spend the rest of our lives together and now we have such a perfect family.

We want more children in the future too.

I'm happy in the arms of the man I love and with my family and friends surrounding me.

After that dreadful night, Jaxon and his companion were caught and charged. Luckily, Mike survived and the bullet didn't damage any major organs. He still works for me. Although, Reese made sure I had extra bodyguards after that day. He's been super protective ever since. I guess that night frightened him as much as it did me.

Reese was also checked out at the hospital. After a very scary night, worrying he might never sing again, the doctor told us he was perfectly fine and healthy.

I stayed the night in the hospital with Reese and when he was released, he explained everything to me.

I was shocked and horrified at how Rosalie was so obsessed with Reese. She thought she could trap him by lying. She had this sick plan, making up a false story so she could claim him as hers. I don't know how far she would have taken it but I will never understand how she believed she could get away with something so horrific.

Not only that, she clearly affected Reese and she almost destroyed any chance we might have had together. I felt so bad for him, it was a terrible situation that took him a while to get over. I felt so awful I didn't give him the chance to explain earlier.

We promised each other that if we ever got into a disagreement in the future, we would listen and we would deal with it together.

A few weeks after that, we decided to give our relationship another go. As they say, third times a charm, and it certainly was.

We were destined for each other.

After a diaper change and a feed, Masen finally settles down in his crib and Reese drags me back to bed with him. He places kisses all over my neck, collarbone, and chest. I moan softly, feeling sated and happy.

Reese's eyes meet mine, he watches with adoration and love.

"You're so perfect, you know. How did I get so lucky to have you?" Reese kisses my lips passionately and I sigh into his mouth.

"I could say the same thing about you." I glide my fingers through the soft strands of his chestnut hair on the back of his head.

We stare at each other, I notice his eyes glistening in the dim light. "Thank you for making me the happiest man alive. Thank you for being my wife. Thank you for giving me a beautiful family."

I crush my lips against his, showing him how grateful I am for everything he's done for me.

I often wonder how I got so lucky when I felt like the world was never in my favour. My life started with grief and pain. When everything was dull and grey and my world felt quiet and cloudy -- suddenly the sun came out, the birds sang and everything changed for the better.

It's like a delightful dream. I wake up every morning with a bright smile on my face and enjoy every precious moment I have on this earth. That's how life should be lived.

He came out of nowhere and we collided like stars in the night sky. It was fast and it was brutal. We had our good moments and our bad -- we were destined from the very first day.

After everything we've been through, I'm grateful I have the man of my dreams at my side.
