"Thank fuc- er, fudge." And with that Erik kissed me.

Three months later
"It's live!" Liv yelled from the lounge. Her announcement was followed by a stampeded as all the Larsson's ran to get in place.
I exchanged a glance with Ella, Erik's newly minted sister-in-law. She rolled her eyes, letting out a little laugh.
"Welcome to the family," she picked up a massive bowl of popcorn. "get used to the stampeded of marauders. It doesn't get any less loud."
I grabbed two giant packets of chips and followed her into the lounge. Gunnar, seated in the arm chair, had grabbed his wife and was lifting her onto his lap, pressing kisses to her neck as she giggled and wiggled, trying to keep the popcorn upright.
I looked to Erik, finding him grinning at his brother.
"You wanna keep the PDA to a minimum?" He asked, reaching over and removing the bowl from Ella's hands.
"Nah, I'm good," Gunnar replied, immediately taking advantage of Ella's free hands to pull her into him and kiss her.
I laughed, tossing the chips on the table and making a leap for Erik. "Come on, I think we can take them in the obnoxiously adorable couple stakes."
He pulled me in, murmuring, "I'm up to the challenge."
I peppered his face with kisses then squealed when he fell onto the couch, pulling me down and across him.
"Boys!" Jemma, Erik's mother, snapped. "Leave the girls alone. I want to watch this before the children wake."
I laughed, rolling off Erik and settling in beside him. He draped an arm around my shoulders, immediately pulling me into him. Ella made a move but Gunnar kept her tight against him keeping her on his lap.
It's almost like they're related.
I hid my amused smile, waiting for Liv, Astrid, and Rune to find their seats. Suen, Erik's dad, handed me a beer.
"You ready for this?" He asked, settling beside me on the couch.
"Definitely."
"I'm not," Erik grumbled. "You sure we have to do this?"
"Yes!" came the resounding answer from around the room.
I chuckled, patting Erik's leg. "Sorry, Babe. Looks like you're out numbered."
He sighed heavily, "fine. Get on with it then."
Suen hit play and the episode started.
"Oh, Erik," Jemma whispered when they showed the mold in his bathroom. "Really?"
"Sorry, Ma. It's gone now."
She shook her head, shoving a mouthful of popcorn in her mouth.
Suen leaned over, "she's been singing your praises to the extended family."
