*Cat*
I knew that yesterday’s scare would’ve sent Elio into overdrive, and I was right in all the best ways. After romantic baths with candlelight, a massage then a much-needed nap with my favorite movies playing and a gorgeous dinner on our verandah where the stars were shining brighter than ever, I slept amazingly that night.
I didn’t think he was going to top yesterday but when I opened my eyes, I found the bed surrounded by a rainbow of roses. A huge grin spread across my face as I sat up, a hand on my belly to support our daughter’s weight. I gently picked up one of the red roses on my pillow, smelling it deeply.
It was gorgeous, but also had the scent that I loved.
“Elio,” I said, loving the sentiment and gesture but also worrying about how the flowers were going to die right after this. It had to be a thousand dollars worth of roses covering me, and I pondered how I hadn’t noticed him doing this.
