TWENTY SEVEN

~CLAIR~

"Are you ready?", Matteo asks me. I take a deep breath and nod. Knocking on the door, he gives me a gentle squeeze and the door opens. The maid greets us and ushers us inside.

"They are all in the kitchen", she says and we follow her direction. Both of our families were talking and drinking in the kitchen. "Sorry we're late", Matteo says as we walk into the kitchen.

My family decided to host a dinner for both families, so I decided to tell them the news at dinner. "You look so cute in your purple V neck dress", Arianna says. I blush, "Thank you". I look around to see her kids but they were nowhere to be found. "Where are the kids?", I ask.

"Oh, they're being babysat", she answers and I nod. "Hey, Bunny", Aiden says and kisses my cheeks. "Hi", I hug him back. He taps my nose and walks off to where Matteo and Dominick were standing.

"Let's start dinner, shall we?", mom says and we all nod.
