Gabriella's POV

I'm now back at work and the first person I see of course is Luciano, coffee in hand and all which he handed to me.

"How was your night and morning?" He asked with a cheerful smile.

"Good, nothing too interesting happened. Like hey take this I didn't get robbed last night high five to me am I right?"

"Oh, well done! My night went amazing too, Amara came over to my house though."

"AMARA! Please tell her I'm sorry for blocking her, I was going through some things, you would know." There is so much I deeply regret from way back then and I realised I did what she did to me, I iced her out.

"Yeah sorry about that once again but I will and I will also explain absolutely everything to you on that date ok?"

"Ok, so do you...have any kids , wife, girlfriend?" I asked him.

"No, not right now that could change though."

"What...you think I have a kid or something cause I really do not. Because if in any way shape or form I had a baby trust me you would know Luciano." I began drinking my coffee to shut my mouth up.

"No I meant you could become my girlfriend, you know if you want."

"Oh...ok but what...what do you think of kids?"

"Um if they're cute enough." He laughed. "Let's go finish today and then go enjoy ourselves, ok?"

I nodded at the comment as we headed to the elevator.

After Work

I was now home with Adrianna watching her favourite show on my computer so she could understand what they were actually saying. I decided to not tell her about the date to protect her from her heartbreak, instead I told her that I'm going to a 'work dinner' which she thankfully believed. It's also not that big of a lie. I don't know if I'm going to tell Luciano about her tonight or even ever...which yes I know is bad but neither of them need to know right now do they? I got up from my seat and went to start getting ready for the date.

After about 1 or so hours I was ready. I went on my phone and unblocked his number, to be honest that feels great. I went to text messages and immediately saw a bunch of texts from him, starting all the way from the moment we broke up, the texts ended after 5 whole years...so he'd really been texting me everyday for five years and my dumbass didn't even know? Now I feel bad, I think he deserves a date for texting me daily for five whole years. I decided to call him right away.

We talked on the phone for a few minutes before I saw a red flashy car show up with him getting out of it. I got Adrianna up and dropped her off at the daycare, I had to pay them extra to have them keep her for a few hours. I took a deep breath before walking out of the door to go and meet him. Here goes nothing.
