Celestia
I struggled out of bed and made my way down the hall to the door.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6503KPs5X
"Ramon? Is everything okay? I-oh."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjcRJ772vK
I look at who is at the door and there are two women with suitcases in their hands. One of them I remember from the pictures. If she's his step-sister then the other lady must be his mother.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLWScNaAVx
"Ah, another unexpected thing, when did you get a dog? And Oh! You must be Celestia. Such a beautiful daughter-in-law, my, my you're ready to pop!"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT4j2eMGWP
"Mother," Ramon whispers.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYgBDwgWV0
"Oh, quit being so sensitive, you haven't even called your mom in ages," she says as she steps in with her daughter in tow.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpNQH3QDQa
"I called you months ago when I was in Paris," he mutters.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOSJ9vUGle
"Still ages ago. Celestia dear, it's so lovely to finally meet you, it's upsetting how I heard about you at first from newspapers than from Ramon himself. Do you know the gender?" she asks after she hugs me.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfidDmiGPf
"It's a girl," I say as I look down.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlX8H7hxNZ
"Ah, wonderful! Come we have so much to talk about. First, come meet my daughter Lilly."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWghe1gR90
She gestures for Lilly to come our way and she smiles and waves as she walks over. Ramon comes around and places his chin on my right shoulder. Peach peaks over from his arms and then leaps out of them, going directly to sniff Lilly's shoes.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdinVuoCsNv
"Mother, how long do you plan on staying?" asks Ramon as his head nods to the suitcases.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsLGrviEaD
"Not that long, about a week or two. I just wanted to see how you've been holding up. Lilly missed you too. Isn't that right Lilly?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2Snma5eSI
"Yeah, big bro, I really missed you," she responds mockingly.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh75I3ClAF1
"I really missed you," Ramon mocks back, and I laugh at their conversation.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaVzZxXwWG
"Don't mind them they've been like this since they were children." his mom dismisses.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs0Exov10E
She takes my hand and takes me away from Ramon, heading for the living room. It takes me a minute to fully sit down and she sits next to me.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUthCfrp4zV
"Oh! How rude of me, call me Clarissa or mom. Whichever you prefer."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KArj5AoSc
"Alright," I smile.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wEWB8cK7u
I'm being shifted up as Ramon sits behind me, laying me back on his chest and placing his arms over mine as he rubs his thumbs against the top of my hands.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcOOhvVO9d
"I can tell that Ramon here is head over heels for you. I haven't seen him show this much affection since his first childhood teddy bear."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KItFrfLlG
"Well the same goes for me," I say as I look up at him with a smile.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJx7aBjDEuM
He looks down and gives me a quick kiss on my forehead before I look back up.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SAkFZx6hV
"Y'all are too cute, have you picked out names for the girl yet?" Clarissa asks.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUk2oOjkpg
"We've only started thinking about it today actually."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBHRwRuhcv
"What were you thinking of?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrATrq1aS5Q
"Well, so far we have Evangeline, Aurelia, Calliope, or Anaisa.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSZ575pg9P
"Those names are so precious! I absolutely love them all."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUQdRVUS4z
"Thank you!" I say.

Clarissa and Lilly took me out shopping for baby clothes and they helped me buy things to put in my bag to bring to the hospital.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ReZr1ife9
"Celestia look at this one!" says Lilly.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6phNIowM6
I turn to her to see her holding up a fluffy white polar bear onesie. My heart melted as I imagined my little girl in it.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo89JJRiFrw
"Oh that is so cute," I sigh. "Maybe I should buy it later though since it's about to be summer, we've got a long way till it gets cold."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijKPTSwURc
"You're right," she replies as she puts it back. "Ooh, we need to find something for her to wear for when she's born."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJXstzIU8N
"Yes, let's look for something pink and white, something pale probably."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM1QxB5sSW
"I'll go look over in that section," she says and rushes over to where she pointed.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dESG3whRp
Clarissa comes up next to me and sighs.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwyWu6jaRY
"You know, she's so excited for this baby just as Ramon is. Lilly can't have children."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosKJFmTqZh
"Really?" I say looking back at her.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSsS24Wgxm
"Yeah, she loves kids, always babysitting and going anywhere they would be just to play with them. It's sad that she can't have her own."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdvSoXvnb3
"Does she want to adopt?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoSI69qyfT
"Yes, she plans on it. Though she isn't sure whether she wants to get married first before she adopts or be a single mother. But she's only twenty-three so she has time.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLPGUgHcQn
"Oh, she's the same age as I am."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnanWNLGcaw
"Yeah, I did notice that you're so young, you're practically finished with college, getting married, and have a baby on the way. You have your life together. Not many people have that." she smiles.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpNpclw7fF
"I never thought that I'd even be like this so quickly. After my first boyfriend, I simply planned on getting my degree and moving on with my life. I told myself that love would come later. And I guess it's true. Love comes when you least expect it. And it definitely works in annoying ways." I lightly laugh.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiniWbKcxJ
"How so?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsIhbLINjA
"I remember when Ramon first made advances on me. He followed me everywhere and nearly went down on his knees just to spend time with me. I was too focused on the rest of my life. When I told him yes-" I blush as I remember the first week we had together.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulQpwWOKDt
When I told him yes, I quickly realized that he was serious and I took a chance. And I'm glad I did."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKCzxhwXNe
"Mhm, I see," she responds with her eyebrows lifted.
"I found something!" says Lilly as she comes back with two onesies. One was pink, grey, and white. The other was pink and white.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxUMuW4hIm
"I really like this one!" I state, taking the first one from her.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrjxWzI4UA
"That one's nice," Clarissa replies. "It's simple but really cute."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5d107vkP2
"I'll take the other one as well, a girl can never have enough clothes," I laugh.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8ZhJ3Imb2
"True that," Lilly chuckles. "Alright, we should probably head out before we buy the entire store," she says, nodding her head towards the full shopping cart.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDcomtxd04
I shrug, smiling, but push the cart towards the register at the front.
When I finished paying, we went to order Chinese food to go. Once we got our food we grabbed my bags, walked back to the car, and went home.

Ramon holds me close as we continued to watch the interrupted movie. It was currently eleven forty-two pm.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP3OJjW4Of
"It's getting late, you should go to sleep baby," whispers Ramon after I yawn for the third time.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bY9I3w0Ap
"No, the movie's almost over, I wanna see the wedding," I say, stifling through another yawn.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7hYCP2LJo
"Haven't you seen this many times before?" he chuckles.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAfjHG8xVU
"Yes, but I still love to see it,"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOpIgNH5iy
"I can't wait to see ours,"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREOjHVdvx1
I smile, closing my eyes. "Mmm yes, I cannot wait to be called your wife," I mutter.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlHccm4x0u
"Go to sleep my love, you can barely keep your eyes open."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDW9gFZNpY
"Do I have to?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DPSHAc6e0
"Yes, if you do, I promise we'll look at wedding stuff tomorrow, does that sound good?"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ZnnYBHyt
"That sounds great. Promise you won't get bored? I know some men don't like to plan these kinds of stuff."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4idFMmluBi
"How could I ever be bored? Planning our wedding sounds like the best idea on earth, I can't wait to see what dress you wear when you walk down that aisle, surrounded by thousands of your favorite flowers."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dYjhcNsNQ
"Mmm red roses,"325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2QpqpyavF
"Yes, red roses. Goodnight my Queen, I love you."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxw4nfnF6i
"I love you more my King."

Ramon
As she drifted off to sleep, I pull the covers over her and kiss the crown of her head. Love me more? All the love for her inside of me for this woman is indescribable and infinite. Everything I have ever wanted is in her. It is her. And only her. To see her smile, to hear her laugh, to wake up to that beautiful woman every morning is the reason why my heart beats.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfgsPAn6BB
"I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you, Celestia."325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gOjZLj4wo
