Stefan's POV
"Heeelllloooooooooooo, anybody home" a voice called from the doorway to the garden, a young dark haired woman, holding hands with a little girl,
"April dear" Karen yelled jumping up from her chair, she hugged the dark haired girl that I now knew was April,
"Hey mom, oh my gosh, Lizzie you look so well" she called, Elizabeth stood up and hugged her sister,
"Hi April, you don't look to bad yourself, this is Stefan" Elizabeth said turning to me smiling.
"Hi Stefan, it's nice to put a face to the name I've heard of so much from my mom" she said laughing.
"Hi April" I smiled standing from my chair
"Hello Auntie Lizzie you forgot about me" a voice came from behind Elizabeth, she turned to the little girl,
"Sophia, how can I forget about my favourite niece, come hereabouts give me a big cuddle" stretching out her arms. The little girl threw her arms around Elizabeths's neck and hugged her tight, I smiled watching.
"April, the bags are in the hall and Bradley's on the sofa asleep," a dark haired man called from the doorway
"Nathan, this is Stefan, Lizzie's boyfriend, Stefan, Nathan my dear husband" April smiled,
"Hey daddy, come on Sophia let's go see grandpa"
"Hey Lizzie, Stefan nice to meet you mate, so you've met the whole family today, nothing like throwing you in at the deep end hey" Nathan said shaking my hand,
I laughed, "It's not been too bad"
"Hey you don't you try scaring him" Elizabeth said giving Nathan a gentle push,
"Looming well Lizzie" Nathan said hugging berry, Elizabeth laughed,
"Yeah that's what everyone has said since I walked in"
"Right weres the beer, I deserve one"Nathan said laughing,
Elizabeth and I sat back down she put her hand on my knees,
"Thank you for this, I know it's hard" she said blushing.
"Elizabeth we have only been here a couple of hours and it's so nice meeting everyone, it's been fine" I leaned forward and kissed her quickly on the cheek,
"Who are you" a little voice came from the side of me,
"I'm Stefan, a friend of your auntie Lizzie's" I said smiling a day holding out my hand,
"I'm Sophia, I'm 6 years old, I have a brother be is called Bradley he is 3 years old and he is naughty, it's nice to meet you Stefan, you look nice" she said placing her small hand into mine, I gently shook it.
"It's very nice to meet you Sophia and I'm looking forward to meeting Bradley" I laughed, looking at Elizabeth who was smiling too,

"Daddy put me down, keep want to go find aunt Sarah" she yelled,
"Yeah go torment her" Nathan laughed putting her down, Sophia ran indoors, Nathan. Sat down opposite me,
