"I am sorry," Chanel whispered, deeply ashamed of her jealousy."Shhh. There is nothing to apologize for. I wish there was something I could say or do to take this pain away.""Move to Paris! Live with me!" Chanel blurted and Cat looked at her in surprise."I- I can't. My girls... they lost their father less than a year ago. I couldn't leave them," Cat said, her voice sticking in her throat as she watched the desperation and despair in Chanel's eyes."I thought of moving to the states but I've spent my whole life fighting to get where I am now. I dream of one day becoming Chief Inspector. I'm on track. And Paris is my home," Chanel said quietly.Tears ran down Catherine's cheeks. They were in a no win situation. Separated by a vast distance and embedded in their own lives neither could see a solution. They just knew they loved each other.Chanel gently took her face in her hands and kissed her tenderly. When she pulled back she touched her forehead to the blonde's. "Let's enjoy the ti

He smiled and made his way downstairs to the living room and sure enough there they were. He slipped on his clothes and glanced out the windows. The sheers were drawn, thankfully, but he could see Ashley Beaumont standing on her front steps. Someone was standing on the path in front of her shaking something at her. He couldn't really make out what it was but he had his boots on and was out the door before that person could hit her with whatever he was shaking.He marched across the lawn and turned up Ashley's driveway as she caught sight of him. He saw her immediate relief then nervousness flash across her face in quick order. The man standing on her path still had his back to Ben but he looked like a large heavyset fellow."Good morning Ashley," Ben said loudly to catch the attention of the man who was still shaking... a book, he saw.Finally the man turned and Ben could see his face, flushed from arguing. He was probably in his forties and had a large frame like Ben's but his carrie

"That's great to hear!" Ben said, a feeling of relief sinking in."He's been asking when you would be back. Said he needed to talk to you. I'm hoping he's not going to ask you how to tell me he's leaving." Dominic said honestly.Ben raised his eyebrows then spotted the young man in question. The eyebrows stayed up as he saw the shiner."Who gave you that?" Ben asked him and Jayden ducked his head with embarrassment."The brother of one of the girls I dated... before," he said quietly. "I went to the houses of the girls I... dated and apologized. A few had brothers that decided a beating was in order. After the first one," he pointed to his eye, "I started bringing along some friends," he pointed to the crew walking past, "who waited for me on the sidewalk and kept an eye out for angry family members. I took the slaps from the girls if they needed it."Ben looked at the young man standing before him, seriously impressed. "What brought this on?""You said I had to ask myself what kind o

He took her to the Korean restaurant and she was able to order some favorites. She was also able to use her Korean to order and the staff treated her very well. Ben ordered some rice and some beef dish in a sweet sauce.They found a table near the edge of the food court so he and Tina could people watch.Ben was pleased to discover that eyes were sliding past him to gaze at Tina. He looked at her too and saw she really was glowing with health and happiness. It warmed his heart."It's good?" he asked as she devoured her food."I have such a craving for this dish. I do not know why," she said perplexed.Ben smiled. "I believe food cravings are a normal thing for pregnancies.Tina looked up in surprise and grinned at him.They finished their meal undisturbed which was a relief for Ben. He thought they were going to actually make it out alive as he wheeled Tina back to the exit when he heard a commotion behind him."It's him!""The Bronze Man!""OMIGOD!""-autograph!""Selfie!"Ben sighed

"Thank you Tina. I'll need you to guide me-""Ben," she shook her head, "you need no guidance in how to love us." She placed her small hand over his heart. "It comes from here and it's perfect."They relaxed back on the couch and just enjoyed the closeness.It was Lucy who noticed the time. "Ben you need to get ready to go. I suggest you wear that amazing charcoal grey shirt under your black blazer and slacks. The pins will glow nicely on black and you'll look fierce in that outfit!""Mmmm! Remember you have to take us there too one day!" Tina smiled."With pleasure!" he replied.He got up and made his way to the master bedroom. Tina and Lucy followed and watched him dress. Once he was done they both smiled and made hungry noises. He gave them both passionate kisses and they rested on the bed, heads spinning as they giggled happily. He smiled over at them as he put together an overnight bag.They followed him to the garage door and locked up behind him. He drove over to the twin's hou
