There were Christmas carols playing through the house, more traditional than the ones Ted and Henry had been dancing to the previous morning and at a much more reasonable volume. The boys parted for her, moving out of her way as her coat flapped behind her, clearing a direct path to the gaffer who jogged to meet her, his arms out wide as the crowds cheers seemed to only get louder.

Rebecca questioned, standing up and moving around to meet him on the other side of the desk. She was waiting on him. Over the summer, it was me.. Can I eat it? He grinned as he lifted the lid and Rebecca chuckled a little, still watching intently as he set the lid aside and pulled back the delicate tissue paper. Not a glimpse of a single thing showing through - no worry, no fear, no joy. Sounds wonderful, dear. She hopped up over him, straddling his waist, leaning over him to press a kiss to his lips. Her cheeks were flushed, her smile was wide, and he felt like his heart was three times bigger watching Hayes press her chubby little palms to Rebeccas cheeks as they stared into each others eyes. What? Ted whined with a chuckle, giving Rebeccas knee a pat as he moved to follow Roy. He wasnt ever disappointed to see Higgins, but hed made his way to her office in a rush, in a conundrum; in a near all-out panic, and he needed her insight or maybe just her hands on his skin, anything that would soothe the worry that had latched to his bones. She tugged a little at her scarf, twisting her neck just a bit to try and cool her skin. Do you have any board games, Rebecca?. I dont know what to say. ho! Music Supervisor. Oh, nothing. She moved over to him, demurely taking a seat by his side and resting her hand on his knee.

Copyright 2023 Ted gestured across the expansive living room to where she was sitting on the floor next to the tree, attentively listening to Hayes telling her stories about the decorations on the tree and asking her to read the labels so the little girl could know which presents were for her. Rebecca stayed seated, so as not to jostle Hayes so much she tumbled over the railing, but instead, encouraged the little girl to clap her tiny little hands, gleefully. She cleared her throat. The press hasnt been particularly kind to Rebecca in the past, so we wanted to keep this to ourselves as long as possible.. Thats incredibly thoughtful, Henry, thank you. Id have liked one though.

Higgins made his little choking noise in the back of his throat and Beard lifted one eyebrow. The gaffer invited us. Roy noted, at Rebeccas puzzled smile. If theyre even in the slightest measure like you, or like Henry, Ill adore them too., Ted looked up at her, feeling the warmth spread through his cheeks as he studied her, in complete awe of this woman he couldnt in a million years imagine deserving.
