Caden could feel her heart beat again his chest in the kiss. He loved when he felt her heart beat. It showed him that he had an impact on her. He had that special ability to get her heart rate at 100 miles per hour.That meant the world to him. She could do the same to him. 5 time as much. She drove him crazy. In a good way, of course. She put him in a daze, just by whispering to him. Or smiling. Or throwing her arms around his neck. Just little simple things, drove him wild. She was the best thing that had ever happened to him. And without her, he wouldn’t be here today. He wouldn’t be alive. Tristan changed him. She changed him into a better person. But the most important thing was: She stayed through out it all. Caden smirked against her lips and chuckled a little once she asked him about a record deal. Tristan always told him he had an amazing voice. And that one day, he could actually be famous because of it. But Caden didn’t want that at all. He didn’t want to sing to other people. He just wanted to sing to Tristan. His biggest fan.

“Nahhh, for now I’m good with just you as my audience.” Caden said with a tiny smile, looking into her eyes then losing his breath once she pulled him back into a kiss. She still took his breath away. Ever since day one. It was…perfect. Amazing. She was. Caden stared into her eyes, leaning his head onto the side of the pillow and pushing some of her hair behind her ear. He could remember the day, back in West Park, when Tristan wrote him a song. He never had anyone write him a song before. Ever. Know one cared for Caden that much as to write a song for him. But Tristan did. It felt almost too good to be true. And she had an amazing voice. It was perfect. It made him weak to his knees. Sometimes he could hear her sing the song she wrote him in the shower, and he’d just stand by the door and listen to it. He loved hearing her sing, or just talk. “Can you sing to me now?” Caden asked her with the same soft smile, reaching for her hand and lacing it into his. Caden averted his eyes down to her ring finger, looking at her wedding ring. He could remember buying it for her a couple of weeks after their wedding. And watching her cry happy tears because she loved it so much. “Pretty please?” Caden asked her again, making his famous Puppy Dog face for her and holding onto her hand tighter. She always fell for that. Always.

Caden chuckled once he heard what she said about Amber. Caden thought the same. But he wouldn’t have let Amber lay a finger on Tristan. Instead, he just let her punch him in the mouth once to get her anger out. Caden chuckled more at the memory, speaking up again. “Remember when I came back to your dorm with a bloody lip?” Caden said with a small chuckle, looking down then back up into her eyes. This moment was so perfect. Them just going down memory lane. The good memories though. The memories that led them up to this moment. The ones that causes them to fall even more in love then they already were, if that was possible. Caden felt his heart flutter once she said she’d go back and do it all over again too. It was true. He would. He’d fall in love with her all over again, and enjoy every minute of it. From the good to the bad. They all still led up to this moment, right here, right now. Caden held her closer to him, smiling to himself as her finger tips began to glide down his back. He loved her touch. It sent his blood racing through his veins. His heart pounding against his chest. Just because of what she did to him. She made him so weak, without even trying. Caden looked straight into her eyes as she spoke up, smiling at her words. She wanted her to sing to him. He loved singing to her. He specially loved singing her his song that he wrote for her when they were in West Park. When he decided to mess around in the music room, and he ended up writing a whole song for her. Caden smiled, nodding and pulling her closer to him.

Caden rested his head on her shoulder, rushing his hand up and down the side of her body as he took in another breath. She knew what he was going to sing: He knew she did. “Let me tell you a story, about a girl and a boy. He fell in love with his best friend, when she’s around he feels nothing but joy.” He could remember thinking of every little lyric for this song. How it just came to his head. And described everything from the start of their relationship, to now. “But she was already broken, and it made her blind that she could never believe that love would ever treat her right. Did you know that I love you? Or were you not aware?” Caden turned her chin towards him, so that he could see straight into her eyes for the next verse. “You’re the smile on face. And I ain’t going no where. I’m here to make you happy. I’m here to see you smile. I’ve been wanting to tell you this for a long while.” Caden reached for one of her hands, lacing it into his and letting them tangle together. “Who’s gonna make you fall in love? I know you got your wall wrapped all the way around your heart. Don’t have to be scared, oh my love..but you can’t fly unless yourself, you can’t fly unless you let yourself..” Caden smiled softly, keeping his eyes focused on hers. No one could ever give him this feeling. This same feeling. For five years straight. Tristan was the only one who had the ability to drive him completely insane…only her. Caden pressed his lips to hers lightly, letting his lips move slowly and passionately into hers. A surprise kiss. Just how they both liked it. Caden broke the kiss, pressing his forehead back to hers and whispering against her lips. “Fall.”

Caden loved the feel of her against him. Close to him. Underneath the sheets of their bed. Just kissing each other. Holding each other. Feeling each other’s chests rise against each others. Her eye lashes fluttered against his cheek every now and then. And her rises gliding all across his skin. They were both still a little wet from the lake, but he didn’t care. He didn’t feel cold anymore. With Tristan against him, he felt warm and protected again. She made him feel whole. No matter what. Caden kept his lips against her neck, tracing patterns into it with his lips and peeking his eyes up at her as she began to speak. I still remember what you were wearing…Caden smiled against her neck, automatically knowing what she was talking about. She didn’t even have to tell him what she was referring to. She was talking about their first night together. On the roof top. The night they both fell for each other. Caden chuckled a little once she referred to them as incredibly stupid. It was true. But, they were kids. Madly In love. Nothing else mattered but each other at the time. And just like Tristan, he adored every minute of it. Caden rested his head on her shoulder, lacing her hair into his finger tips and fiddling with it. “I still remember your first words. And what you sounded like. I still remember the exact smile you had on your face, and the same twinkle in your eye. You were holding that radio, and you were stuffed into a jacket. Your face was sort of red because it was cold outside, and your lips were pale too.” Caden said with a soft smile on his face, looking up at her and keeping his head nestled on her shoulder.

“You looked perfect. You were all I wanted.” Caden whispered to her, swallowing once. “And you still are.” Caden followed up with, biting down on his lip and keeping his eyes on her. He could still see that 17 year old girl. He could even remember the first time he met Tatum. When he decided to pop up at Tristan’s dorm, and he opened up the door to a bratty diva who thought she ruled the world. He could remember thinking that Tatum wasn’t a big deal. That she wouldn’t effect their lives as much..but she did. it’d been a couple of years since Tatum came out. But it still worried him that maybe one day she could come out, maybe while Caden wasn’t even home. Caden shook the thought out, placing her hair back on her shoulder and raising his head. Caden pressed his forehead to Tristans’, looking into her eyes and whispering to her again. “I remember our first kiss too.” Caden let a small smile come onto his face as the images began to flutter back into his head. “You were crying, a lot. You still looked beautiful even when you were crying. I scooped you up in my arms and just kissed you. i was pretty scared you were gonna slap me or something, but you didn’t.” Caden chuckled a little after his words, staring into her eyes and connecting his lips with hers before she had a chance to speak up. All those memories. They’d stuck with him for so long. The good and the bad. But he treasured all of them. “I’d go back and do it all over again if I had to.” Caden whispered into the kiss. 

Caden licked his upper lip as Tristan tossed her towel onto the floor, his body instantly covering her up. This was like the things that people did in those cheesy romantic movies. The movies that Tristan always made him watch with her. They’d only seen the Notebook about 200 times. What they had was too good to be true. It was unreal. He never imagined for him to end up like this. After Kylie, he didn’t expect much anymore. He only expected to die. To die so he could finally be happy again. Because he was nothing without Kylie. But Tristan..She opened his eyes. She showed him a whole other world. She loved his flaws. She stayed with him. She really loved him.And he really loved her. Just as much. More than anything in the world. Caden smiled a little once she said hey to him, his arms locking tighter around him. Caden listened closely as she began to whisper to him, smirking at her words and rushing his hands up and down the sides of her body. “Your wish is my command.” He whispered to her, pulling the covers over them both-and tossing his towel onto the floor with hers. “Better now?” Caden asked her in a whisper, smiling softly and leaning his head back once she buried her face in his neck.

Caden let his hands trial to her lower back, making small circles into it with his finger tips as he did so. Her skin was still so soft against his skin. So soft and perfect. Everything about her was perfect. Her body was perfect. Her face was perfect. Her hair was perfect. She was perfect. Caden could feel her voice vibrating against his chest as she spoke up again, his heart picking up it’s pace at her words. “You are? Good.” Caden whispered, pressing his lips to the top of her head. “I was worried you weren’t.” Caden said between a soft chuckle, bringing his face down to meet hers and connecting his lips to hers for a quick second. Caden let his lips trail back down her jawline again, making his way down her neck until he reached her shoulder. “I’m even more in love with you.” Caden whispered against her skin. Caden let one of his hands begin to explore her body once again, shivering at her touch as he stopped it at her hip. “More than I should be.” Caden said in the same whispered tone, making his way back up to her neck and caressing it with his lips. He loved having her this close to him. And closer. He liked her as close as possible. Whether it was like this or just squeezed in his arms. He wanted her all to himself. She was all his. That’s how it had been since day one. And that’s how it will always be.

Caden could feel her body becoming weak in his arms. Her grip was growing tighter on him around his neck and his hips. This moment was so perfect, as was everything with Tristan. She always made these moments more perfect than they should be. Ever since day one. When they were screaming mac miller lyrics on the roof top of the Asylum. Anybody would think of that moment as just two teenagers, hanging out. But Caden thought of it totally different. He thought of it as the time when he first fell for Tristan. When she first became his whole life. And how after that night, when he got back to his dorm, She was all he could think about. She stayed in his head and never left. He risked so much for her, he went through so much for her. Just to have her as his..and it was all worth it. Now she was his wife. And the mother of his two children. He got the best thing in the world: Love. Caden smirked a little against her neck once he felt her head tip back a little more. He loved when she gave him more room for her neck. Just another one of the many things that he adored about Tristan. Caden felt his heart begin to pound against his chest once she agreed to go back inside with him. just simple words like that drove him insane. That’s just how it was. “Let’s go then.” Caden whispered to her, keeping her in his arms as he began to make his way out of the lake. Caden chuckled a little to himself as he felt rain drops begin to fall onto his back, looking up at the sky. It was perfect timing. Almost too perfect. As if they were in a movie or something. Caden laughed quietly under his breath once he heard Tristan’s words.

“It’s destiny.” Caden said with a quick wink, chuckling a little more as he finally got them out of the water. Caden placed Tristan back on her feet, reaching for one of the towels and draping it around Tristan’s shoulders. The towels were already beginning to grow soaked, and if they stayed out here in any longer-everything would be soaked. Caden quickly grabbed the other towel, wrapping it around his waist and grabbing their clothes. “Come on come on.” Caden said quickly as he slipped his hand into hers, rushing with her back into the house. Once they got through the front door, Caden tossing their clothes onto the floor-picking Tristan back up in bridal style. Caden pecked her lips once more before heading back up the stair case and tip toeing once again past the kids rooms. He could hear Jaden’s tiny snoring coming from his door. It was too adorable. Caden pushed open their door once they reached it, once again, tossing Tristan back onto the bed in her towel. All he wanted to do right now was hold Tristan in his arms. Warm her back up. And just..be with her. Like he always wanted to be. Caden shut the door behind them, curving his smile back onto his face and going Tristan on their bed. “Hi again.” Caden whispered to her, towering over her and connecting his lips back with hers. This night had been so perfect. The best way to start of the rest of their lives in this house. Caden broke his lips from hers, pressing his forehead to hers and trying to catch his breath. 

Caden jumped a little once he heard Tristan’s voice creep up from behind him. Of course, she caught him. But he wanted her to anyways. Caden chuckled once he heard her words, turning to her and doing a small shrug under the water. “Maybe.” He said to her with a smirk, wrapping his arms back around her waist. Caden felt his heart begin to beat faster again once her lips met his. Those surprise kisses were the best thing in the whole entire world. Just because of how perfect she made those kisses. Each kiss always had something special in it. Every time. There was never a time when they had a boring kiss. There was always sparks. Every single time. Caden held her closer to his chest in the kiss, never wanting the kiss to end. Ever. That’s how he felt withe every single kiss. And once she pulled away, a little frown was always there. Caden smiled into the kiss, licking his lips once the kiss broke and his eyes met back with hers. Her eyes looked so gorgeous. The moon was reflecting in it. It was too perfect. She was too perfect. Too perfect for him.

Caden listened to her words, letting a small smirk come on his face once he heard her words. “Well..” Caden said under his breath, averting his eyes down to her once her lips began to trailing down his shoulder. He loved the feel of her lips connecting to his skin. How sensitive and weak he got when she did that. Only because she had such a big impact on him. It was crazy. “I have an idea.” Caden choked out, reaching his hands down to her thighs and picking her up-wrapping her legs around his waist. Caden pecked Tristan’s lips once more before trailing his lips down her jaw line, then to her neck. Her skin felt so soft against his lips. And her body felt so delicate in his arms. Caden kissed slowly up and down her neck, inching down to her shoulder then back up to her ear. “But you’ll have to come back inside with me first.” He whispered into her ear, kissing her ear lobe lightly. 

Caden chuckled softly to himself once she whined his name again, in the same blushing manner. Once again her felt another bolt of joy shoot through out his body. “Tristannnn.” Caden mocked her, still keeping his gaze on her eyes. Caden shook his head, once again, when she said she loved him more. It was amazing how much those words could affect him. Whether it was Tristan saying it, or Talia saying it. It still drove him crazy. Caden felt chills go down his back once her arms wrapped around his neck, connecting her body with his along with her lips. Caden felt his heart beat begin to pick up pace once he felt her smile in the kiss. She could make his heart beat at 100 miles per hour, if that was possible. Tristan could definitely make it possible. Caden let out a tiny groan once she bit down on his lip, pulling it back and letting it snap back into place. Caden chuckled a little after it, feeling a slight wave of blushing go through out him after wards. Caden continued to rush his hands up and down her sides as he lips met his jaw. Caden let his eyes flutter closed, smiling to himself as he leaned his head back more.

She could make him so weak sometimes, it was crazy. She could get him to do anything she wanted him to do right now. Well, she’d be able to do that anytime she wanted. Caden swallowed once he heard her small breaths trace into his ear, then opened his eyes once he heard her words. He should have been expected that. Caden did a gasp as he popped his head back up from the water, running his hand through his hair and looking down at her. “You…You’re gonna pay for that.” Caden hissed at her, smirking and going back down under the water. Caden held his breath under the water as he made his way around Tristan, popping himself back up from behind her and brining his lips to her ear. “Boo.” he whispered into her ear as he wrapped his arms around her waist, yanking her down into the water with him. He loved playful moments like this. Where they acted like they were 13 years old, playing around with each other. They were in their early twenties, and still acting as if they were in middle school or something. Caden chuckled under the water, quickly popping back up from under the water and swimming away in the opposite direction.

Caden let a wide grin plaster onto his face once he heard her words, letting out a loud laugh after it. Caden swished the water around a bit, leaning his head back again then lifting it back up. “I think it was totally fair.” Caden fought back, smirking and swimming closer to where she was. Caden poked out his bottom lip once she told him playfully to not look, speaking up again. “Please?” He joked, chuckling more and splashing around more of the water. It was cold, but he’d get used to it soon enough. Caden rolled his eyes, shutting his eye lids and waiting for the sound of her moving herself into the water to play. Once Caden finally heard it, he fluttered open his eye lids. There she was, swimming into the lake water and coming towards him. She looked so perfect. So natural. So…just what he wanted. He couldn’t picture anyone more perfect than Tristan. She was the only one he wanted. Just her. Like this. Forever. Everyday. For the rest of his life. Caden brought himself back under the water, making his way over to Tristan then popping his head back out of the water once he reached her.

“Hey there.” Caden said with a soft smile, snaking his hands around her waist under the water and pulling her to him. He could feel the chill bumps trailing up her sides against his hands. The moonlight was shining perfect on both of them. Right on top of them. The moon followed every move they made. Caden brought his eyes to her eyes, just staring at her. Just her. He couldn’t take his eyes off of her. It was still so damn hard to believe. That Tristan was all his. This was all his. This was his wife. The only girl he would ever feel like this for. The girl who made his stomach do flips. Who made him do the craziest things in the world. Tristan had this magic affect on him. She had him wrapped around her finger, and she always would. “You look so perfect.” Caden whispered, not meaning for it to come out. But he didn’t care. Caden slowly leaned his forehead onto her, letting his nose rush against the tip of hers. “I love you.” He whispered, a little quieter this time as his lips made their ways closer to hers. Caden let one of his hands slowly glide down her side in the water, enjoying the touch of her bare skin against his palms. Nothing could be better then this at the moment. Just them two. All by themselves, in this lake. They were the only two on earth right now. Or, at least that’s what it felt like. Caden brought one hand up to her neck, pulling her closer as he attached his lips to hers. Fitting them together perfectly. Their lips were molded just for each others. They were made for each other. That’s just how it was. Simple as that.

Caden chuckled a little once she whined his name playfully, watching her as she continuing to blush. He loved when he made her blush like that. How she’d shut her eyes and hide her face in his neck. How her face would become a light shade of pink and she was speechless. All she could make out was his name. It felt like such a big accomplishment to him. “What?” Caden teased her, smirking a little and leaning his head back for a second so she could kiss his neck more. He could remember holding her like this on their wedding day, and bringing her back to their dorm. How beautiful she looked in her wedding dress. How he called her, and told her to come up. And how his nerves had never been that racked in his life. Now look where they were. Five years later..it was too good to be true. Caden shook his head once she said he was too perfect. It wasn’t true. She was the perfect one. She’d never believe him, but it was true. “Nope, you’re too perfect for me. Waaay too perfect.” Caden said in a small whisper, pecking her lips as he made his way out of their bed room. Caden tip toed through the hall ways, peeking into the kids rooms as he passed them-just to make sure they were still sleeping. They wouldn’t be at the lake for too long, so they didn’t have to worry.

Caden smirked to himself once he checked on both of them, rushing them down the stairs and still keeping his grip on Tristan in his arms. He felt like a teenager again with her. Sneaking out of the Aysulm together. Just so they could be completely alone. It was perfect. Who would of thought they’d still be doing stuff like this, five years from that point in time? Once they finally reached the lake, Caden chuckled to himself as he placed Tristan back onto her feet. The lake was surrounded by a whole bunch of grass. It was so peaceful. A huge lake: Just for them. It was dark outside, but the moonlight seemed to be lighting up the sky more than ever right now. Which made it all the more perfect. “Close your eyes.” Caden whispered to her with a tiny wink, quickly slipping his shirt over his head once her eyes shut. This was all so perfect. The only reason why it was this perfect, was because Tristan was here. She made this moment..amazing. As she did with every other moment. Caden quickly yanking off the sweatpants he had on, along with his boxers and averted his eyes back to Tristan. “Don’t open them yet..” Caden said over to her, running his hans through his hair and looking towards the lake. Caden smirked to himself as he ran towards it, jumping into the lake and letting his whole body sink into it. Caden gasped for air once he came up, running one hand through his hair and yelling over to Tristan. “Okay now you can open them!!” 

Caden chuckled a little more once she said he better not throw her into the lake. “I think I was crossing my fingers when I said that, oops.” Caden said between a tiny laugh, bringing his eyes to meet hers. Her eyes still fascinated him more than anything. The way they looked so dark, but held so much light at the same time. The way they stared right into his. And how Jaden had her same eyes. It was beautiful. It was perfect. Caden let his smile curve even more onto his face as she leaned in closer to his lips, hovering her lips over his-but not letting them touch. Caden raised his eye brows once she said there was one more question, then smiled into the tiny peck of a kiss. He loved when Tristan tried to be seductive,it was adorable. Specially when she giggled while trying to do it. Caden brought his upper teeth over his lip as she kissed up his jaw and to his ear. That would forever be his weakness. Caden let his smirk slide onto his face again, chuckling a little and bringing his lips back to her neck. Caden placed a couple of kisses across her neck, trailing his way back up to her ear and whispering into it. “Who needs those?” Caden let his chuckle linger into her ear, pecking her ear lobe once before pulling away. 

These little moments were something that would always stay glued in the back of his mind. The moments where it felt like him and Tristan were the only two people living on earth. Sometimes it even still felt like they were just 18 years old. It was five years later, and still nothing had changed. That’s what made everything so special. Their love hadnt died at all. It only grew stronger. Caden quickly hoped off the bed, rushing into the bathroom and grabbing a couple of towels that were on the towel rack. This felt so weird. Their bathroom was way bigger then the tiny one they had in West Park. The one that they had to share with Talia and Jaden. It was too crowded. Now they finally had space to even walk into it. Once Caden grabbed the towels, he stepped back into the room and chuckled a little. “Wait..” Caden said in a whispered tone, throwing the two towels over his shoulder and making his way back over to the bed. Caden smirked as he reached his arms back over to Tristan, slipping her into his arms and picking her up in bridal style. “The queen must never step foot on the ground, right?” Caden said with a small chuckle, pecking the tip of her nose.
