Christian

Molly pulls me outside of the house full of excitement making me smile. I love seeing her so happy and carefree, it feels like she hasn't been able to feel that way much lately. We head up towards the back fields, the further we get the more excited she seems to become. We keep going until we are over the other side of the farm she then stops me and turns me around so that I'm facing the way that we just came. What is she up to? We are almost to the edge of the farm, I can see all the animals and the farmhouse but it's still a good distance away.

"What's going on?" I look to my left to see all of my brothers and parents heading our way. "I don't know." I shrug. I go to turn around but Molly stops me. "Slow down cowboy, need a minute here." I chuckle at her attempt at Texas slang but remain turned away from her. "Oh, are we finally going to find out what they've got covered up back there?" Jack asks but no one answers him. "I already know what it is!" Tom suddenly chimes out. Ah, what now? "How the hell do you know what it is?" Jack asks the question that is on the tip of my tongue.

At this point, I'm pretty sure that we are all sharing the same confused looks as we all look at his smirking face. "Why would you tell him about this but none of us?" Jack asks trying to sound hurt as he talks to our parents but it's clear he's just trying to stir the pot a little. "We didn't. The person who planned and arranged this did." My parents are the only ones that know what's been going on here so how can... Oh, wait. "This was you, wasn't it Molly?" She lets out a small laugh making me smile but my curiosity is getting the better of me. "Maybe." That's all she says, just one single word yet it says so much more.

"Ok, everyone face the pigs until I tell you to turn around" All of my brothers do as Molly says but Tom and my parents walk off behind me, I assume to stand with her. "Ok turn around!" Molly's excited tone has me smiling as I turn around to face her but it is soon replaced with what I know is a look of utter shock at the beautiful sight that's in front of me and for once I'm not talking about Molly. Of course, she looks gorgeous, she always does but what I'm looking at now is something incredible and not what I was expecting.

"Is that a house?" Zack asks with a look of amazement on his face that I know without a doubt is on my face too. Molly's still smiling as she nods. "Yes, it's a six-bedroom, three-bathroom house." She answers looking very proud of herself. "Is that your house?" Callum asks her. I've got a tone of questions flying around in my head too but my brain-to-mouth filter seems to be out of order right now which never happens to me. Molly lets out a little laugh as she shakes her head. "No, it's not mine. It would be way too big for me. It's a family home." A family home? Who is it for? The answer is either right in front of me and I'm having a serious stupid moment here or there is more to this than what it appears. "So who's is it then?" Zack asks while Tom lets out a low chuckle.

"It's Christians." Molly looks straight at me as she speaks. "It's for you and the Children." Her words leave me speechless and motionless. and just plain shocked. "I don't understand." The words leave my mouth in a stutter. "How?... Why?" Both she and Tom start to laugh as they both step closer to me. I look around to see all of my brothers and parents smiling at me, their smiles are genuine and warm my heart. Molly comes right up to me and places one of her hands on my cheek then moves it so that I'm looking at her while her other hand come to rest on my chest.

"Chris, you are such an incredible dad, not just to Brody and Sophie but now also to Katie and I know that both I and your family are so incredibly proud of the person that you are. Not many men would have taken on Kate given the situation and how Amy has played things but you did. You didn't just take her on but you fought tooth and nail for that little girl and all three of your children are incredibly lucky to have you as their Dad." It's clear to see that she means what she's saying and I love her for it.

"There's nothing in this world that you wouldn't do for those babies, they will always have what they need in life and so much more but I also know that the fact that you don't have your own home for them sits heavy on your heart. You love living with your family and don't want to move away from them but you also want the kids to have their own rooms and a home to call their own but it's easier said than done." She takes a moment to catch her breath but I remain silent not wanting to interrupt her.

"However, I was able to help you so I have. I went on a whim and figured that if you didn't want to move away from your family but also wanted more room for the kids then why not build you a house on the farm but still with a little bit of distance? I spoke with your parents and they were more than happy for this to happen here and the contractor even had a team who were available so we went with it. The guys worked their asses off to get this place ready and Tom, your mom and I have decorated it and furnished it. Of course, you can change anything that you don't like but we just wanted it to be completed for you." This girl is something else and my whole goddam world!

I wrap my arms around her back and pull her into me kissing the top of her head as she wraps her arms around my waist and leans her head on my chest. "I don't know what to say. There are no words to describe how I feel right now." She pulls back from my hold a little and graces me with her beautiful smile. "Are you happy?" She asks looking a little nervous. "So fucking happy, sweetheart." Her smile quickly reappears making my heart pound harder. "Then that's all that matters, you don't need to say anything else. Would you like to see it?" I nod then she turns away from me and takes my hand pulling me toward the house.

"I can't believe she had a house build for you, I knew I should have nabbed her up first!" Jack shouts out stopping us in our walk. We both turn to face him and there he is with his usual Jack smirk spread across his face. "Jealously is a horrible shade on you brother!" He throws his head back laughing before shooting me a wink while smiling at Molly who's laughing at his banter.

"Come on Jack, let's go get Sophie from the nursery while Chris checks out his new home." I send Callum a dramatic grateful nod making him laugh as he nudges Jack away from us. "Finnnneeee but I'm taking Kaite!" He jogs over to my dad whos holding a smiling Katie and scoops her out of his arms and starts running across the field with her making her laugh. "We're gonna leave you to look around, give us a shout if you need anything," Tom says before heading for the farmhouse with everyone else following behind him.

We stop by the front door where Molly hands me a set of keys and a strange sensation rushes through my body. Is this house really mine? How? I don't understand this! We step inside and there's a wide passageway that leads to a set of stairs if you go to the left and two different doors are situated to the right wall but we are quite wide apart. we step inside the closest door to us and we're in a lounge, a really beautiful lounge.

"Hold up... You paid for all of this didn't you?" She seems to go somewhat shy as she nods her head confirming my thoughts. "Before you start the whole I can't accept this bull crap hear me out!" As usual, her sassy attitude instantly makes me smile and my dick hard as a rod. I try to ignore how much I want to bend her over the arm of the large love chair that's in the corner and fuck her until neither of us can walk and instead, concentrate on her face. "Ok carry on."

"I knew that you wouldn't want to accept it no matter how much you liked the place so I have done things a little differently." She nods to the kitchen table where I notice a brown envelope sitting there. "Go and look inside it." I do as she says feeling anxious as I get closer. What has she done now? I quickly pick it up and take out several papers before I can change my mind. I look over the pages and quickly realize that there are two stacks of papers and one of them has me slightly confused. "What are these? I've owned a home before so I know that this one is all the information and deeds for this house but what is this one?" I hold out the one that I'm struggling to understand and she walks over to me before stopping to the side of me.

"The ones you understand are just what you said, they are the deeds to this house in your name, they just need your signature so that I can sign it over to you and this one." She takes the one I'm questioning and opens it up to a certain page before handing it back to me and that's when I notice the kid's names written down. "What's this? Why ar-" She smiles at my confusion before placing a gentle kiss on my lips then pulls back.

"If you don't want to accept the house from me then you can sign these papers instead. They are deeds to the house which will put it in your name as would the other forms but the difference with these ones are that there's an extra section in these that states that if you take the house from me then you can't sell it for your own personal gain. So basically it will be your house but if you ever want to sell it the money must go into a trust fund for the children."

I have no words, once again she has me speechless. How can one person be so beautiful inside and out, so thoughtful and so fucking perfect for me and my children? "You are incredible Molls!" She goes to speak but I stop her by pulling her into me and kissing her as if my life depends on it. She had better be planning on staying with me until our last breaths because I already know that I never want to live without her.
