I perked up at surprise, already jumping up and getting dressed. I really needed a mood lifter after the week I've had.

 

"What is it?" I asked eagerly, pulling on a top.

 

"Right this way"

 

I followed him down the stairs and towards the living room where I heard muffled voices. They got clearer as we walked, and a very familiar scent washed my nose.

 

"Jane!" I squealed as I entered the living room, cutting off her and Lilly's conversation and jumping on her.

 

"And Jace" I heard him say with a faked hurt look on his face. I quickly shot him a smile as I released Jane and hugged Jace too.

Lilly, Aiden, Jace and I watched them in awe. It was such a beautiful moment.
