Finding Home (The Affair Series Book 3)

Holiday Surprise

Stef could only smile at her girlfriend who slid out of bed naked after a night of making love once again. Right now their relationship was like nothing it had ever been and it was the first healthy one Stef ever had. Ever in her life as the smile remained on her face as Lena's curls hung down her back. The cop could only let out a horny smile as she could  see every curve in this womans sexy body as Lena turned around to catch her staring.

"What are you looking at." Lena teased as Stef cocked her head.

"You beautiful. You are so damm hot."

"Am I?"

"Yes. Come here." Grinning at the blonde Lena walked over to the bed and crawled on top of Stef kissing up her body.

"What do you want woman?"

"Is that a trick question?"

"No!" Lena teased.

" Well to be honest I just want you to know that I love you. You know that?"

"Yes. And I love you too baby."

"Yeah?"

"Of course Stefanie Foster. What kind of question is that."

"I'm just making sure and I'm glad because I wanted to ask you something."

"Sure love." Smiling at her beautiful girlfriend Stef grabbed for something under her pillow as she revealed a diamond ring.  Truth was she had been carrying it around for months but it never felt like the right time to ask Lena. Maybe it still wasn't but she didn't want to waste another minute for the love she had for this woman was only growing everyday. Of course Stef had doubts that she would be a good wife to Lena since she fucked up one engagement already. Would this end up the same way. She could only hope it wouldn't as she could see the tears fall from Lena's face.

"Lena I know we had our ups and downs and a rough ride sometimes. I know I fucked up alot but you have been so patient, so understanding and always there even when I didn't deserve it.  I know you questioned me many times and might even wonder if I can uphold being a wife. But I promise you I can, I promise you I'm not that person I was, I promise to be good to you and make you happy and remain stable. I just know I love you and will you marry me baby?"

The smile on Lena's face could only grow larger as she gently cupped the blondes cheek. Yes they had been through it all, and at times Stef had given her hell but she loved her. She did and trusted that the blonde was being honest and would keep her word abotu remaining healthy. So far she had and she was aware Stef did it for her kids and herself. In Lena's eyes the cop deserved a chance and she was willing to give it to her. 

"Of course I will marry you baby. I would love to be your wife."

"Yeah?"

"Yes. Did you have doubts?" Lena grinned as it was now Stef who had tears in her eyes. " Listen baby, I know it was rough for a bit with us, and difficult but I love you Stefanie. I really love you and maybe in the beginning it was all about us fucking and having sex. But  now it's something else because I know all of you. I have seen the good, the bad all sides and I still love you and want to be with you. If  I didn't I wouldn't be here, I wouldn't have moved here  in the first place and I wouldn't have changed my life. Yes people thought I was crazy but I knew I wasn't. I knew deep down I was supposed to marry you, that we were supposed to be together. So yes I will most certainly marry you and I love you so much.  You are my life, my world and I want to be with you everyday of my life."

"I love you so much baby." Stef said feeling her voice crack as Lena pressed her lips softly against hers.

"I love you too. More then life."

"Married! Oh my god! I'm so excited for you guys!" Frankie said nearly jumping up and down as she hugged both women. "That is so amazing and it's about time mama."

"What?" The blonde asked looking surprised.

"It took you long enough. Jude and I have been waiting for you to ask Lena for months." 

Glancing to her fiance Lena could only smile a bit as Stef looked flustered and somewhat embarrassed.

"I mean you are really slow when it comes to some things so Jude and I took bets that it might be another year."

"I'm glad you and your brother have so much faith in me Francesca."

"Anytime mama. But let me see the ring please!" She begged as Lena held her hand out and Frankie could only smile. "It's so pretty. Feels like you."

"I thought so too. It's very nice."

"It is. Good taste mama."

"Well thank you. I am glad I have your approval." Laughing at her daughter the family soon sat around the table sharing breakfast together and sipping on coffee. Of course they noticed the absence of Jude and it did feel strange to all of them. But what mattered most was that he was having a good time with his sister in Boston.

"But I am really happy for both of you.  Lena does this mean you will be Lena Foster?" 

"Well your mama and I were talking about it and we were thinking we will be Adams Foster. How do you feel about that?"

"I think that's really sweet. So this means I have to get another badge." The girl said smiling as both women did as well. "I mean do you mind if I have your name too Lena?"

"I would love that Frankie. But only if you want baby."

"I want. I do and I guess you're moms now." Smiling at both women Stef could only grab Lena's hand as her fiance could feel her emotions take over. The morning had been beautiful and it was even more now with Frankie's excitement and support. Lena had to admit she was really excited that they were becoming an official family and so was the cop even if she was nervous about fucking it up still.

"Moms sounds really nice Frankie." The slim woman said as the smile remained on the older cops face.

"Are we going to celebrate? Let me take you both out please."

"No love you save your money." The blonde said.

"Mama I want to. Please let me. You both have done so much I want to do this for you." Glancing at each other the two really didn't want the young girl to use her money on them. Not at all.

"How about you leave the tip. Or make us something?"

"No. I'm taking you both out. End of story. We can go to that Italian place by work mama. I heard it's super nice."

"Yeah? You been there?" Stef asked suspiciously.

"No! But I am taking you both there and making reservations for New Years. End of story." Shaking her head Stef knew how stubborn her daughter was as did Lena for they would just give in because the girl was not giving up as the blonde soon heard her phone ringing. Happy  to see her son calling she had to admit she missed him more then anything. 

"Hey baby! How's Boston sweets?"

"I want to come home mom."

"What happened? What's wrong love?"

"Nothing. I just want to come home. Can you change my ticket? Please."
