Laura Hale. Married. Alpha. Mother.

Jackson was grateful that both he and his wife were able to take time off together to enjoy some time together. With or without the kids. “Babe we made a lot more than just that one,” Jackson reminded her with a slow smile creeping across his face, “I’m actually done now if you know a gorgeous woman that would like to kidnap me for the evening.”

“Yeah, but that one happens to work here.” She shrugged, a small laugh in the words. Honestly, it was nice. Gave her an excuse to check on their son and Miranda when she was in the building. “Hm. I don’t know, maybe.” Laura paused, pretending to think about it. “I’ll do the kidnapping, but you’re buying the dinner.”

“And here I half expected all of you to be avoiding this house like the plague for the next month.” Laura teased, dropping down onto the couch. She couldn’t blame them, she’d hated family Christmas as a kid, and there were a lot less Hales back then than there were Whittemores now. “So what’s up?”

Laura knew that it should be difficult to balance so many kids, and at the beginning it had been. She was big enough to admit that. But after losing out on so many years, she made a promise to herself not to miss anything, especially the older they got. Swinging around the doorframe into her son’s office, she grinned as she leaned against it. “Stop what you’re doing. We’re going to lunch, and before you try and argue - your boss doesn’t say no to me, and neither should you. C’mon, my treat.”

Jackson knew that he needed to get better about leaving his office on time, but it was something that he struggled with constantly. It was just easier when Laura was busy to hide away at the office. “What do I owe this pleasure?” He asked curiously as he looked up from his paperwork.

Their family was growing, but this time of year was harder than usual. A lot of her free time had been spent at the gym, getting things finished up for the end of the year, but once it was over she sent Kaiden home and didn’t want to be on her own. “Well, you see, we did this really cool making a person thing, and he works down the hall.” Laura joked, leaning in the doorway of her husband’s office. True, she’d gone to see Jacob, but by the time she got there it had been too late. “You almost done?”

“You’re going to be completely miserable,” Jackson leaned in to teasingly nip at her lips with a laugh.

“Cora won’t know how to survive hearing about it all the time.” Laura joked, letting out a quiet laugh.

[haleishwhittemore]

mrjwhittemore‌:

“You will never hear a single complaint from me at the very least. You’re stuck with me,”

“Oh no, what a horrible fate.” Laura gasped dramatically, rolling her eyes, “however will I survive that.”

“No I suppose with things like that you really can’t complain too much.”

“I take what I can. But you know that you can always come over, right? We’ve got that open door policy for life whether anyone likes it or not.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mrjwhittemore‌:

“No you’ve always made sure that I was kept on my toes.”

“I haven’t gotten any complaints.” Laura laughed.

“I mean we did share a womb. I’d be more worried about us if we weren’t similar in some ways. But I know you didn’t have a say, but I still appreciate it.”

“You’re more alike than you’re different, and I think Kieran prefers it that way. I’m happy just knowing that you seem to be happy.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mrjwhittemore‌:

“Us being bored isn’t something that I recommend for the world to have to deal with.”

“Then I guess it’s a good thing we very rarely have to worry about that.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mayaa-hale‌:

“No when you have that many it’s what works best even. As long as everyone is happy, right?”

“They seem to be, which is all I care about. And they’re letting me in their lives even after how long it’s been, so I couldn’t complain even if I tried.”

[haleishwhittemore]

thetaliawhittemore‌:

“I wouldn’t have experienced it without you giving it to me,” Talia reminded her mom, “After all that’s what you’ve given me to always have a best friend by my side.”

“I didn’t really have much of a say in that, but I’m glad you got to have that too.” Laura argued with a grin, “having all of you has made me a better person. And you and Kieran are too much alike sometimes.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mrjwhittemore‌:

“It would suck to be married to other people.”

“Our lives would be pretty boring, and the world doesn’t need that from either of us.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mayaa-hale‌:

“It is easy, but I’m sure your kids also don’t let you take it for granted much.”

“They practically much take me in shifts, and I’m pretty sure that’s why. I can’t complain much, though.”

[haleishwhittemore]

thetaliawhittemore‌:

“I’m glad that our antics are always leaving you and papa entertained. Honestly though as much as I complain about it sometimes I’m more than grateful that I was born with my best friend right beside me.”

“It just reminds me of how me and my siblings used to be,” Laura admitted. “I know that feeling, believe me. I’m happy you got to experience that.”

[haleishwhittemore]

mrjwhittemore‌:

“All joking aside you are the love of my life.”

“It’s a good thing we’re married then, isn’t it?”

[haleishwhittemore]

mayaa-hale‌:

“Yeah I think it’s best to enjoy our lives while we can.”

“I spent too much time in hell to take anything for granted now. Even if it’s easy to sometimes.”
