6 months later
In two months Nick and I are getting married. Finally!!! I've been waiting for this for so long. We have been planning for a long while now and everything is finally settling into place.
"We are getting married soon mamas."
Nick says giving me a hug while we lay on the bed.
"I know baby."
I say giving him a kiss. Angelo runs to us. He is getting really big . He can run and his vocabulary is expanding. I'm so proud of my smart baby.
"Can you count for dada?"
Nick says. Angelo starts counting on his fingers.
"One, two, thee, fouh, five, sev-"
"Uhoh, what comes before seven?"
Nick says. Angelo stops and thinks.
"Oh! Six, seven, eight, nine and ten!"
"Good job! You are so smart Angelo."
I say and tickle him.
"Angelo smart."
"Yes baby, Angelo smart."
I say and hug him. Angelo lays down in the bed right in the middle between Nick and I.
"How did we make such a perfect child?"
I ask. Nick smiles at me.
"I mean look at you, how did you think he'd turn out?"
"Aww my love."
I say and give him a kiss.
"Kith again."
Angelo says. I giggle and kiss Nick again. Angelo starts laughing.
"You like when we kiss huh?"
Nick asks. Angelo nods.
"Well, I like it too."
He says and gives me another kiss.
"I think it's time for Angelo to go sleep."
I say.
"No!"
Both Nick and Austin whine.
"I want Angelo to stay with us."
Nick says hugging Angelo. They always do this.
"No no babe, you know Angelo needs to sleep so he can charge on energy."
"Ugh, okay, we do want Angelo to have energy tomorrow don't we?"
Nick asks Angelo. Angelo nods.
"Good, then let's go to sleep."
I say and pick Angelo up.
"Say 'night night dada!'"
"Night night dada!"
He says and waves as we go to Angelo's room and I put him to sleep. I was so happy, this was the life I always wanted. Through all the shit that has happened in my life I somehow got blessed anyway. Nick and I talked a lot about life and how we need to stop with all of this criminal shit. It's time to be very careful now that we have a child, it's not the right time to put our lives at risk. Everything gets more intense once you get a child, all the reckless things you could do before, scares you know, because you're afraid of the though of your child being alone or losing you. I just stood there leaning against Angelo's crib, stuck in my thoughts.
"Are you okay babe."
Nick asks startling me.
"Huh? Yeah I'm all good."
I say turning towards him. He comes to me and hugs me.
"Why aren't you coming to bed? I was waiting for you."
"I was just stuck in my thoughts."
I say as my arms were wrapped around his torso.
