"Hmm, that is true," Lily said, mulling over the idea of the party. It was definitely something that would take a bit more planning - and probably a bit of budgeting - to be able to manage, but she’d take a look at the prices and see what she could do. Especially because it always seemed to break her heart when she had to say no to something that Ella really wanted. As Tyler went and got the pizza, Lily cleared off a bit of the coffee table so that they could just eat there instead of heading to the dining room. When he came back with the plates, Lily kissed his cheek. "Thank you, love," she smiled, leaning forward so that she could cut Ella’s pizza in to more reasonable pieces for her, who was still trying to figure out what could possibly replace a pet for her birthday, before her eyes lit up at Tyler’s mention of the cupcake maker and kitchen set. "Yes, Dada! That’s what I want!" she exclaimed, tugging on the sleeve of his shirt.

[tylerwhiite]

"You're welcome." Tyler smiled, rubbing small circles on Lily's lower back as she cut Ella's pizza. He laughed as Ella agreed enthusiastically that yes, she did want the cupcake maker and kitchen set. And Tyler didn't even care if he had to hunt down the toy in question, he'd do anything to make Ella happy. "I think we can do that, but you have to be a good girl for mommy, okay?" He asked as she nodded, a determined look on her face and Tyler grinned, looking over at Lily and placing a kiss on her cheek before he got to eating and watching the movie playing. It wasn't long before he felt the weight of Ella at his side as she slowly drifted off to sleep. "I'm so jealous of her nap time right now." Tyler whispered to Lily.

Lily gladly took Tyler’s hand, sitting down on the couch next to him. She curled up close to him, her legs overlapping his a bit, listening as Ella rambled on and on about the birthday party that she wanted to have at Build-A-Bear. “When we went to the mall yesterday, we looked around just to see if they had anything new for her bunny, and there was a birthday party there,” Lily explained. It was certainly doable, and they’d invite the kids that Ella was closest with from their yoga class. She’d look later on for the pricing to see, but Lily couldn’t foresee saying no to Ella now that she had her heart set on it. She’d make it work, no matter what the price was. It took no time at all for Ella to exclaim that she wanted a kitten or a puppy for her birthday. The poor child had been asking for one ever since she found out what animals even were, but Lily knew that animals could be tough and that she’d wind up being the one to take care of it since Ella was still so young. “But what else do you want, in case we can’t get a puppy or a kitty?” Lily asked, hoping that something else could satisfy her in case a pet still seemed out of the question.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler nodded, understanding what the sudden need of a birthday party at build-a-bear was all about. He had never personally been in the place and every time he saw it in the mall, it seemed like torture. But... he'd literally do anything to make Ella happy. "Hey, less clean up work than if she were to have it here or something." He pointed out with a slight shrug. As Ella contemplated what her second choice of gift would be, Tyler stood from his place on the couch as he heard the front door. After paying for the pizza, he set it down on the table and retrieved plates, taking three plates with pizza back to the living room and placing them on the coffee table. "What about that cupcake maker we saw on TV the other day? You said you wanted the whole kitchen remember?" He suggested, plopping back down and turning on the movie he had picked out; Which was Finding Nemo because why not.

Lily couldn’t help but grin, her heart growing warmer with every passing second. “Mommy wishes that you could stay with me all day, too,” she agreed with a smile, and Ella piped up saying “Me too!”. It still blew her mind sometimes that she was lucky enough to have such an amazing daughter, and an equally amazing boyfriend. “Hmm, I’m pretty sure it’s your turn, actually. Ella picked last time and I’m always after you,” Lily said, having thought about it for a moment. “Does that sound right, Ella?” she asked just to make sure, and Ella nodded from her spot cuddled up next to Tyler. Their attempts to make sure Ella understood sharing seemed to be working wonderfully. “Oh, and tell Dada what we’ve been talking about today, Elle Belle,” Lily offered, and Ella took no time at all to grin and exclaim “My birfday!”, which was coming up in no time at all.

[tylerwhiite]

"Maybe I should just hide away here. I'm sure you two would get sick of me eventually though." Tyler joked. "It is? I'm terrible at remembering orders." He laughed, reaching over Ella and tickling her in the process as he retrieved the remotes. "Your birthday? What's that?" He tilted his head slightly and looked down at Ella in confusion before laughing. "That's so cool! Have you been planning your party? Will there be cupcakes?" He asked, ginning slightly and holding out a hand for Lily, tugging her down gently to sit on his other side. As he listened to Ella ramble, he smiled happily with his favorite girls at either side of him. "And perhaps the most important question of all, what does Ella want for her birthday?"

If there was one thing that Lily loved, it was seeing the way that Tyler and Ella seemed to naturally interact and get along. She swore sometimes that those two were just meant to be around each other, with how great Tyler was with her, and of course their ability to bond over the fact that both of them had a sweet tooth. When Ella first called Tyler Dada, Lily was terrified and was fairly certain she was going to puke, but Tyler took it so well that it made her heart swell. She loved the two of them more than anything. Unable to help but laugh at the conversation that the two of them were having, Lily spoke up. “She had a good day with Mommy, but she’s been asking about Dada all day, haven’t you Ella?” Lily said, gently putting her hand on Ella’s head. “Pizza sounds good to me, what about you Princess?” she asked, and Ella very eagerly agreed.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler chuckled, "Of course she had a good day with mommy. I wish I could stay home with mommy all day. I'm so jealous, Ella. You have it made." He teased the toddler, kissing her cheek and then Lily's. "Well, pizza sounds good to me too." He agreed. Tyler figured he'd probably agree to anything Ella and Lily wanted, but that was besides the point. He walked further into the house, plopping Ella down on the couch before sitting next to her and pulling out his phone. "Who's turn is it to pick a movie? I forgot." He laughed, ordering the pizza before looking over at Lily. They had been working on sharing with Ella. Taking turns when it came to things. He remembered how his nephew was at Ella's age and he thought that Lily was doing a much better job than his brother had done. In Tyler's eyes, Lily was an amazing mother and it always warmed his heart because in many ways, her parenting skills were a lot like his own mother's.

Having a daughter, Lily didn’t really find herself with much time to sit back and relax. Not that she minded at all because she loved her little Elle Belle more than anything, it just never gave her much down time or really any chance to sit down and think. Even so, though, she still managed to find time to miss Tyler, but knew that he was even more busy than she was with work. So naturally, when she had gotten a text from Tyler saying he’d be on his way, she was immensely happy - and knew that Ella would be too, because all week she’d been asking where her Dada was. After getting both Ella and herself ready for him to come over, which mostly meant changing out of the pajamas that they often liked to stay in, they heard a knock on the door and went to answer it, Lily holding Ella on her hip. “Hey, baby,” Lily said with a grin, giving Tyler a kiss while Ella squealed “Dada!”.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler's heart filled with warmth and the sight of them. It still left him mind boggled that he was lucky enough to have them both in his life. "Hi, babe." He returned Lily's kiss before grinning and taking a squealing Ellie from her mother. The fact that she now called him Dada always hit him hard. In the best of ways. "And hello princess. How was your day?" He asked, kissing her forehead and listening in on the babble that always followed that question. He smiled gently at Lily as he closed the door behind him as Ella continued her monologue. "Oh yeah? And what did mommy feed you?" He inquired, making out something about lunch. That quickly led to Ella stating she was hungry and shooting Tyler with the best puppy dog pout he'd ever seen. "Do you want... pizza for dinner?" He figured that would make both Lily and Ella happy, so points for him.

Work had been hell the last week. Tyler had not had any time to see Lily or Ella, other than taking them out for ice cream during the week. When he awoke this morning, he was thrilled as he had the day off and he planned to spend every minute of it with his two favorite girls. He'd never been a morning person, but today, he awoke grinning and feeling like the luckiest man on earth. After getting ready, he shot Lily a quick text to let her know he was on his way. They hadn't really planned anything, just decided to spend the day together doing whatever they felt like doing. When he arrived at the house, he knocked and stepped back, waiting to be let in.

Now that Lily was beginning to calm down a bit, she felt like she had to comfort Tyler. So when he rested his head on her lap, Lily moved her hand from cupping his cheek to gently playing with his hair, stopping only for a moment when he told her that it had all been her mother’s doing. And honestly, Lily wasn’t entirely surprised - her mother seemed hellbent on keeping Lily from what she deserved as a wolf. She should have been turned over a year ago, and that never happened, and now Lily was learning about this. Of course her mother didn’t seem to care about the well being of her pack like she made herself seem.

"I remember that," Lily said with a nod. "You shouldn’t have listened to her, though. I know she’s your alpha but what she did, it wasn’t right. I can understand waiting to tell me because fourth grade is young, but she… she’s made this go on for too long,” Lily said quietly. She was angry, that was for sure, but she wasn’t going to take it out on Tyler since it really wasn’t his fault. “If I’d known, I would’ve been less… slutty,” she added, knowing that it must have been difficult for him to smell other guys on her, or even see it from time to time at parties. “You- you said that it hurt being away from me tonight, but was it always like that? Was it like that when I’d be around other guys?” Lily asked, worried that she had only made matters worse for him over the years.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler let out a small whimper at having Lily play with his hair. The closeness was making him so calm, he could almost forget the hunger that had brought him here in the first place. "I had to, Lily. She gave me an order, used her alpha voice and everything." He breathed out, reaching up to take her hand in his. "I think she was waiting for you to get the bite- gift first. But then she didn't and I don't know, my wolf panicked a bit." He licked his lips before entwining their fingers together and bringing their hands to rest by his chest.

"It's always been like that. It just got stronger when my wolf was denied his mate. You were supposed to get the gift, but you never did so the need got stronger. Like it- just wants to take and go against the alpha." He tried not to think about what Lily was talking about, because he did remember, everything. "When you were around other guys before, I knew you'd be mine. Well, my wolf did, so he was okay with it. Sometimes. But I think for me, I was just scared that I'd lose my chance because... it's not just my wolf who wants you. I'm pretty damn attached to you too. I hated having to stay away from you." So he might have left out about threatening all the guys, with the help of Alex. There weren't that many, he didn't know why she was calling herself a slut. He'd been with girls in high school as well, but his wolf hated every last one.

"Well trust me, you’ve been nothing but amazing. And I’m already betting that Elle Belle is going to be the biggest Daddy’s Little Girl in the world," Lily grinned, watching as their baby girl did nothing but giggle and smile at her daddy. There was absolutely nothing better than seeing the two of the finally able to interact with one another. It was amazing. "Well she definitely deserves to be spoiled, so I can’t complain about that," she said. Lily couldn’t help but laugh when Tyler agreed that her brother could see his niece - after an hour or so. She knew he wouldn’t be able to let her go once he had her in his arms for once. When Lily noticed that Tyler was heading inside, she followed after him, not wanting to be far away from him for fear that he could be taken away from her again.

[tylerwhiite]

Later, once they had gotten full and had plenty of laughs and hugs, the White family left the Water's family to head home. Tyler got Ella out of her car seat. She whined a bit for being woken up from her little nap. "It's okay, princess. We're home." He soothed, smiling at Lily because it just felt so damn good to finally be home with his very own family. Ella figured out that she was napping and apparently that was just so awful because Lily had told him that she loves to fight off sleep, like the little stubborn princess that she is. "You weren't kidding about the stubbornness she got from you." He teased Lily as they headed up to the front door.

"Well, I’m just making sure. Cody said he was going to steal her to try to get guys, so I just wanted to make sure," Lily laughed along with him, finally taking the fabric baby sling off and putting the diaper bag on the ground now that she didn’t exactly need it. "Trust me, I know you’d be able to get girls on your own. I’m sort of surprised you don’t have one now, honestly," she said with a bit of a shrug. It wasn’t that she wanted to pry on his personal life, but she was curious as to how someone as amazing as Tyler didn’t have a girlfriend, not that she was complaining at all.

The more that Tyler interacted with Ella, the more she realized just how great he was with her. At first, Lily wasn’t sure about coming home because she didn’t want to admit that she needed help, but now she was realizing that it would be good for both of them. Ella needed more interaction than just what her mama was giving her, that was for sure. “Really? Alex didn’t mention that you’d helped, I think he just wanted all the glory for himself,” Lily laughed. “That’s about the easiest way to get on his good side, though. Feed him and give him alcohol.”

"I wasn’t happy about coming home at first, but… the idea has grown on me," Lily admitted with a smile. "I’ve missed everyone here, and I loved growing up here so it’ll be good for Elle Belle to get to, too."

[tylerwhiite]

"If he's anything like the Cody that left here four years ago, I wouldn't doubt that he'd actually do that. And I'm sure it wouldn't work as most guys his age would probably not know what to do with a child. Unless he's still crushing on Alex then maybe it could work." Tyler said, moving his finger up and down as Ella found it to be a toy. He chuckled lightly at Lily's comment. "I have my fair share of crazy exes, but just haven't been looking in a while." He sat back and turned Ella so she'd be facing him and then commenced the funny faces that always brought upon giggle fits for his nephew and apparently Ella was a huge fan as she started flailing her arms and giggling madly.  

"You hear that Ella? If you ever want anything from uncle Alex, just get him beer and alcohol. Or well, come to me and I'll get him the alcohol." Although she'd probably get her way without the bribes. "I'm happy you're back and brought this beautiful princess with you. We needed you back, Lily. Alex won't admit it, but I will... we were completely lost without you. Also, I tried making those cupcakes you used to make for us and almost set my house on fire."

"No, I don’t understand," Lily snapped back, but once she noticed that Tyler seemed as though he was physically pained by all of it, she softened up a bit and was going to let him talk. And once he began, Lily found herself unable to say anything at all, let alone any sort of sassy, sarcastic remark. She was dumbfounded, to say the least, and knew that her eyes were wide and Tyler had probably heard her heart pick up a bit.

"Why didn’t you tell me?" Was all that she asked, the only thing that Lily could manage to mutter. She knew that mates existed, she knew fully well that her parents were mates and that Cody was Alex’s, with how Alex found it impossible to keep his hands off of her best friend sometimes, but she had never in her wildest dreams thought that Tyler was her mate. Well, maybe in some dreams, because she’d always had quite a crush on him that she’d been suppressing over the recent years due to what seemed like his indifference towards her, but she never thought it would be real. Not with how he did such a good job of avoiding and ignoring her, while Alex blatantly scented Cody a few times. “I’m not making you leave, don’t worry,” Lily said quietly, moving her hand to cup Tyler’s cheek. He seemed like a sad puppy at the moment, and as much as he claimed that being away from Lily hurt him, it also hurt her to see him like this.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler could feel her distress slipping away. He could hear her heart beat, sense her still slight unease. However, it had curved immensely and as she cupped his cheek, he rubbed his cheek against hers and let out a low whine before giving in to his need of being close to her and inching forward to lay his head on her lap. "Your mom. She told me not to say anything. I told her... from the first moment I sensed that you were my mate." He let out a breath, relief washing over him now that he and his wolf knew their mate would not send them away.

"Remember that time... You and Cody must have been in fourth grade because I remember Alex and I were in eight. Anyways, a kid in the playground at the park was picking on Cody and he threw him on the ground. I remember you were so angry that you punched the kid and blood came spurting out of his nose. I felt your anger and I felt your worry when Cody's knee started bleeding. After that I could never get enough of your scent. Your mom said you were too young and she didn't want you knowing yet. And as you got older, I just wanted you more, my wolf wanted to be a possessive asshole and claim you. Your mom told me I needed to stay away, that sometimes the wolf would be too strong and I might hurt you or take you by force. I was scared so I stayed away from you." He finished, looking up at Lily. "I'm sorry... if this is all so overwhelming."

"You know, I’ve been wondering that same thing for years now about you," Lily laughed, giving her boyfriend a kiss on the cheek. Her tears had finally subsided by now, thankfully, and she was too elated to think about anything else at all. "She’s been amazing, but I know she’ll be happy to have her Daddy home," she smiled, watching as their little girl looked up at Tyler with what seemed like a look of awe on her tiny, beautiful face. Lily gladly began walking with Tyler towards the house and up the porch steps, and it wasn’t until she saw Alex standing there that she realized that not only was her boyfriend home, but her big brother was as well. "Hey, don’t mind me, I’m  just watching your little reunion here," Alex teased when he saw the realization on his sister’s face, and she grinned and stopped to give him a tight hug. "Hey, you’d understand if you just got home to your daughter for the first time," Lily laughed, but she knew that he brother understood. "As long as Tyler can give her up long enough to at least let me hold her for thirty seconds, I’ll be happy," Alex chuckled, and Lily looked back at Tyler and Ella for a moment. "I can’t promise that, I don’t think he’s going to let her go any time soon," she grinned.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler playfully rolled his eyes, "I just try to be perfect for you guys. Without you guys... I'd be nothing." He looked at his daughter and girlfriend in turn. Damn, he was the luckiest man alive. "I knew you'd be a good girl. Now that daddy's home, he's going to spoil you rotten." He scrunched up his voice and adopted a baby voice before kissing his daughter's cheek about ten times. It only caused Ella to smile gleefully and let out happy laughter. He could hear Lily and Alex talking, but he was busy making his daughter happy as can be. Upon hearing his name, he looked over at them. "Give me like an hour and then you can hold her. For like a minute or two, alright?" He joked, passing by them and taking Ella inside.

Lily hadn’t exactly expected her first day back at home to consist of seeing Tyler, and falling in love with him all over again, if she had even stopped at all before. It just sort of happened, and it was impossible to stop it, even. All she had to do was look at him and she could feel her crush coming back once again - and it didn’t help that he was quite heavy on the compliments at time. “Hey, just because i said that you look cute holding a baby doesn’t mean that you can use my daughter as a pawn to pick up girls!” Lily teased. Honestly, she was amazed that no one had snagged him while she was gone, because what wasn’t there to like about. “Well… than you,” Lily said, a blush creeping up her cheeks. She wasn’t really used to getting compliments much anymore, that was for sure. “We’re doing alright, I think. Ella was an absolute angel during the flight here, and Alex did amazing with her nursery so hopefully she’ll love it and not have any issues going to sleep tonight,” she said with a small laugh.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler laughed, "I would never do such a thing. Besides, I can pick up chicks on my own. I just choose not to." He smirked. There was only one girl for him and she was sitting in front of him. Technically, now two girls. If only he were lucky enough to call Lily and Ella his. There had been other girls, while Lily was with her ex, but they never quite amounted to Lily. His relationships always failed because the girls weren't Lily.

"You're most welcome." He smiled, before grinning down at Ella as she babbled. "And you're most welcome too, princess." He cooed, not caring that he probably looked like an idiot. "That's good. Yeah, I helped him haul some of the stuff up there. But when it came down to setting up the crib, he kicked me out because according to him, I lost a piece. Which wasn't true, by the way. It was in the bag all along. I came back with pizza and beer so we made up." He joked.

"I'm really glad you're back, Lily. I mean, I know it's not under the best circumstances... but we missed you."

"You do it to keep me safe?" Lily asked, scoffing at the mere thought of it. "How does any of this keep me safe? Keeping me in the dark about everything and making me stay here instead of at home where there’s, oh, I don’t know, werewolves around that would protect me from whatever it is that I need to be protected from? Not like I’d even need protection if I’d been turned like I was supposed to be.” The last part of her little tirade was directed more towards her mother than it was towards Tyler, even though she knew fully well that it was her own fault that she hadn’t been turned when she was eighteen. But still, wouldn’t it save a lot of worrying?

"You don’t do anything to keep me safe. How does avoiding me help anything? Or breaking in to my best friend’s house?” A large part of Lily wished that Cody’s dad was home and could arrest Tyler or at least do something to get him out of there, because at the moment, Lily honestly felt like she was ready to cry before too long - and Lily Waters did not cry.

[tylerwhiite]

"You don't understand, Lily." His wolf was whining and begging to comfort his mate. "Because... Lily..." Her distress was too much to bear. There was no chance he could fight his instincts, especially in a time like this. He knelt before her, bowing his head miserably. Lily was his mate and that outweighed orders from his alpha, but he still felt guilty as he was about to spill everything. His mate was in distress and he had to do everything in his power to help calm her down.

"Lily, please don't freak out. It's taking everything in me not to hold you and scent you and mark you as mine right now. Your distress is making it worse. My wolf... it wants you. I... I've always wanted you. Lily, you're my mate. I don't know how much your mom or brother have told you. But you're mine. That sounds possessive as hell, but werewolves, it's how we kind of are." He looks up at her finally, searching her face for any kind of sign. "Please don't freak out. Please don't make me go away. It hurts to not be around you right now."

Lily couldn’t help but beam as Tyler was able to take a real look at their daughter for the first time. She could see the love and awe in his eyes and written all over his face. The tears hadn’t stopped at all for Lily, but she was sure that if they somehow managed too, they would’ve started up again from seeing the sight before her as the two single most important people in her life were finally able to meet. Sure, they Skyped often, but that was absolutely nothing compared to this. And if Lily thought she’d seen Tyler fall in love with their daughter over video, she was seeing it all over again now, and tenfold.

"She really is, isn’t she?" Lily said, wrapping an arm around Tyler’s waist and offering a finger from her free arm to Ella, letting her hold on to it. There was no way that Lily would allow herself to be more than a foot away from Tyler at all times now, not when they’d spent so much time apart. "She has her Daddy’s temperament. She’s almost always so happy and calm. But don’t let her fool you, she has a set of lungs on her… She’ll probably wind up a bit bossy and headstrong like me," Lily said with a small laugh. "But she’s perfect."

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler was still staring at his daughter in awe, a goofy grin plastered on his face. "How can someone be so perfect?" He wondered, letting out a small laugh. Holding his daughter for the first time was a dream. "Good. Glad she's been a good girl for mommy while daddy was away." He kissed Ella on the forehead and simply held her close before moving her to a more secure spot in one of his arms while the other wrapped around Lily. "I have a perfect family." He smiled. "Let's get my perfect girls inside and comfortable." He stated, walking them both up to the house.

"I’m pretty sure the only reason you two are allowed me is because he knows that you’re both protective of me as well," Lily said with a smile. She’d heard about Tyler punching someone for calling her hot - and honestly, she thought it was cute and quite flattering. "And you’ve been around since I was born, so I think that helps too," she added. Being surrounded by a bunch of protective guys did have its benefits, she had to admit - especially when one of them was Tyler. When Lily handed Ella over to him, she was pretty sure that she could feel her heart melting in her chest, and her ovaries exploding from how adorable the site before her was. She couldn’t help but smile, as there was just something that seemed so… right about Tyler having Ella in his arms, and Ella being there. "You know, you look even more attractive than usual with a baby on your arm," she said with a smile. It was absolutely true, too, and she could see the smile on her daughter’s face that told her that she certainly wasn’t bothered at all. "Everyone tries to tell me that she looks just like me, but I’m no where near as gorgeous as she is," Lily said. She did see the similarities between the two of them, but stood her ground on the fact that Ella was so much more beautiful.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler knew that one of the main reasons why Alex even allowed him near Lily was because they had known each other since they were in diapers. However, that did not stop him from throwing in a threat now and again. And for Tyler to know that Lily was off limits. Was. They were both mature adults now that could make their own decisions. "Yeah, that probably is the biggest factor." He said to her. Once he had Ella in his arms, the smile on his lips never went away. "You really think so? I should hold her more often then. I wouldn't even mind." He grinned down at Ella. "She does look like you, Lily. And you're both gorgeous and precious." He told her truthfully, touching Ella's small hand with his finger. Ella went straight to holding his finger and giggling excitedly. "You tell momma she's just as gorgeous as you are because she pretty much made you." He told Ella, looking up at Lily with a smile. "How are you guys doing with the move?"

Lily could feel some of the panic leave her mind when Tyler told her that everything was okay. That was a relief, but she was still hoping that Cody would come back soon so that she’d know for sure that he’d gotten to her house and back. “I know I’m not, but I’m following the orders. I’m here even though I’d much rather be at home,” Lily said, her annoyance with the situation showing. She knew that her mother and brother only wanted her to be safe, but what was so important during this full moon that she couldn’t be at home? And did they really trust Cody, another human that didn’t always follow the rules, to look after her? Things just didn’t make sense.

"He went to my house to grab his laptop. I know neither of us were supposed to leave but… he doesn’t always listen to me," Lily explained, feeling the need to explain herself. "You could’ve knocked or rang the doorbell instead of breaking and entering, you know," she said. "I don’t know why you’d even bother anyways, it’s not like you talk to me normally," Lily said, her hostility towards the entire situation being directed towards Tyler as she crossed her arms over her chest. Plus, she was still bothered by the fact that he had started ignoring her.

[tylerwhiite]

Tyler gave a curt nod, "It's safer for you here." He said and if he was thinking clearly he probably would have laughed at the irony of that. He could sense her annoyance and he knew he wasn't making anything better. He would have let out a sigh at the information Lily had just given him about Cody, but that would require him inhaling and he couldn't risk that. "I know." He said simply, afraid to speak too much. He could already feel his canines were much too sore, meaning they were aching to come out. Her annoyance came back and hit him suddenly.

Concern and guilt brought upon a small whine from his wolf that Tyler didn't even try to hide. "I'm sorry, Lily." He looked down at his feet. "I know this is all really frustrating. But what we do, we do to keep you safe and protected. I didn't- I just want you to be safe." His wolf was guiding him closer, wanting to comfort his mate. "I'm sorry." He said, standing closer to the bed and looking at her, probably sporting some puppy dog eyes.

Being in Tyler’s arms again made it feel as though no time at all had passed since they’d seen each other last, certainly not enough time for her to have gone through an entire pregnancy and the first month of their daughter’s life. For a moment, it felt to Lily that time had stopped the moment she jumped in to his arms, and she quite liked it this way - but sadly it couldn’t quite stay and Tyler did have to meet his little girl for the first time, after all. “I missed you too, more than anything,” Lily managed to choke out through her tears (which was hardly attractive, but there was no way to turn them off and she figured that Tyler didn’t mind since they were happy tears), and she realized then that he, too, was crying.

With the mention of Tyler missing both Lily and Ella, Lily realized that there was someone else that needed to share this experience with them, even though the baby wouldn’t understand any of it whatsoever. It didn’t matter if Ella thought that she had two crazy, blubbering parents, but it had to be done. “I think it’s finally time that you get to meet our baby girl,” Lily smiled, giving Tyler another quick kiss before taking his hand and tugging him the few steps to the car, where they could see Ella quietly looking up from her car seat. Lily didn’t exactly trust herself to hold the fragile infant right now, not with how she was shaking from excitement and happiness, so she figured she’d also give Tyler the liberty of taking Ella out of her car seat.

Tyler did not want to let her go, feeling that if he did, he would lose her. For months he had been waiting to hold her again and now she was finally here in his arms. So you could see how hard it was for him to release her from their tight embrace. "Never leaving you again, not if I can help it." He said, kissing her forehead and looking over her shoulder as she mentioned their daughter. "Past due time." He agreed, following her lead and stopping short as he came so close to Ella. "She's even more beautiful in person." He smiled, bending to get a better look at her. "I missed you too, my princess." He told a smiling Ella.

Working a car seat was something he already knew how to do, but that didn't stop his nerves as he got her free from the seat belt. He feared that their daughter would cry and think of him as a stranger, however his fears were sated as he picked her up in his arms and she continued grinning happily. "Lilly, she's incredible." He said in awe.
