Three years later.......

I pull up and notice that the house looks empty and the lights are out. Did these guys go out without me? I swear if they went out for food without me there would be hell to pay. I turn off the ignition and head to the door,I turn the key and get in.

Then I noticed the candle lit pathway, someone had been busy,oh my do Luciano and I have the house to ourselves. I follow the candle pathway. Ever since we opened the new winery Luciano and I haven't had some alone time ,if you know what I mean.

I follow the path to the backyard and I hear a little giggle and"shhhh Mari you'll ruin the surprise", and I chuckle.

The pool is full of decorations and I turn to my right and see Luciano on his knee,I stop in my tracks and drop my purse. Oh my goodness I must be dreaming,it can't be. Maybe I was in an accident on my way here and now I'm in a coma and I'm imagining thing

My mom gets out of the car before I can even stop the car" a doctor we need

"Oh my goodness,I think my water just broke"and look at Luciano sitting next to me as we watch a pretty woman. We have been dating for two months now.

"Goodness Lotus I swear to God if you're lying again I'll spank you,last week you told me your water broke but it turns out you just wanted to make me to get you a burger",he says,a week ago I pranked him and told him the baby was on the way I want to laugh but the I feel my first contraction and my face contorts into a painful expression and he knows I'm not faking it.

"Enzo the baby is on the way! start the car! Liam get the bag!",he shouts and everyone yells" what!",and they rush down to the living room.

"Oh my God,oh my God",Enzo looks like he is about to have a panic attack,I almost laugh, almost. This shit hurts.

"Just get the hospital bag,the car seat and put it in the car,we will start off with the contractions three minutes ap
