Family

(Elijah's POV)

I felt someone kissing my lips gently. I groaned as a response, and lightly pushed the face that was close to mine. "Love, wake up, it's already morning." Cain said, and continued trailing soft kisses on my face.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw my husband’s dashing figure. He had on a sweet smile, so I gave him a quick peck on the nose as a way to say 'good morning'.

We were still having our moment, but the door suddenly opened, and our little angel barged in with a curious look.

"Mom, did daddy bully you again?" He asked, but I didn't get enough time to talk, "Don't worry momma, I'll avenge you!" He shouted the last words with a serious face and ran in our direction. He jumped directly on top of the bed, and crawled towards where Cain was.

I just chuckled at my baby’s cute antics, and Cain just cupped his face when he got close, and gave our son a smooch on the cheek.

He was trying to push Cain's face away, wanting to get out of his hold. And I just laughed at the scene before me.

My life is great. I have a complete and loving family. A caring and affectionate husband, and a son who's extremely sweet.

They were all I have.

"Hey, are you okay?" I heard Elijah ask, and I just nodded and smiled at him.

I brushed my baby's hair, while Cain was giving him kisses all over his tummy.

We adopted Alex 5 years ago. We didn't actually plan it. Cain told me that when he was on his way home, he saw a pregnant woman struggling on the side of the road calling for help. It was midnight, and only a few people actually went out at that time of the night. He didn't have the heart to just leave her suffering there, so he took her to the hospital.

When they arrived the woman was immediately taken to the labor room. She gave birth to a boy, but sadly, the woman didn't make it. And we soon found out that she was without a family. So we decided to raise the baby as our own, and it was the greatest decision we've ever made.

Alex completed us.

I was suddenly pulled out of my thoughts when I felt someone tugging my cheeks.

Alex was looking at me with a questioning look.

"Mama, why are you smiling like that? It's creepy, stop doing it!" He scolded me, and I just chuckled at what he said, and gave his temple a kiss.

I looked at the clock and saw that it was almost 7:30.

"OK let's get ready, we're going to be late you two." I said to them, and Cain immediately took Alex from my embrace, and carried him to the bathroom, while I went downstairs and prepared breakfast for my two boys.
