Secrets Never End

Chapter 10

*2 months later*

I sighed as I through the dress I just bought on to my bed. It was a teal blue over the shoulder dress with sequins. It showed off my small baby bump. I know Maia said it'd be best not to show it but Ross, being the proud father he is, already told a bunch of people. So, might as well show it off. I looked at the time and saw it was 7. Crap, I have to make dinner! I ran downstairs into the kitchen. Before I got in there, I passed the patio door and saw Ross playing with Romeo in the backyard. I smiled before starting to get dinner prepared.

Ross P.O.V.

"Go long Romeo!" I yelled as my son ran to the other end of the yard as I threw the football to him. He jumped a little before the ball landed in his hands.

"Daddy, I did it!" Romeo said jumping up and down.

"That's my pro football player!" I said excitedly.

We played different games for hours until Ang called for us.

"Romeo, Ross it's time for dinner!" My beautiful wife shouted from inside the house.

Romeo looked at my with the styrofoam football still in his little hands. I ran up to him by surprise and tossed him over my shoulder. He started screaming and laughing as I ran to the patio that was connected to the kitchen. I opened the screen door and popped my head in.

"Hi there gorgeous." I said looking at Ang who was walking back and forth between the kitchen and dining room, setting the table.

"Hey handsome." She said looking at me then she looked behind me, "Hey little man."

"Hi mommy, what's for dinner?" Romeo asks running to the dining table.

"Today, little man is chicken fettuccine. You'll love it." She said, looking at me then smiling before heading to the dining room.

----during dinner----

"So Romeo, your birthday is next week. Are you excited?" I asked as he played with his fork before eating a bite.

"I'm so excited, is uncle Riker still coming over and everything?" He asked with excitement.

"Of course, everyone is going to be there for your 5th birthday." Ang said smiling.

"How about tomorrow? Are you excited to participate in your first wedding?" I asked Romeo.

"Really excited. Did you ever meet her boyfriend?" He asked.

"You know what? I have not. I guess she wanted to keep it secret, I guess we will see tomorrow." Ang said, finishing up her dinner. She stood up and gathered all of our dishes before walking into the kitchen to wash them.

I took this as an opportunity to ask Romeo something he'd tell the truth to me and not his mom. "Hey buddy, what do you think of the new baby on the way?"

"I already told you Daddy, and Mommy." Romeo said getting down off the chair.

"Son, when you told Mommy, it seemed as if you weren't really telling her." I said, following him.

"Well, I had something on my mind."

"Really? Like what?"

"Daddy, before you told me, somebody else did. And they said stuff like how you would forget about me and it would be just you two and the baby..." The more he spoke, the more upset I got.

"Who said that?"

"I don't know, some guy at the park when Mommy and Bri went." He looked down at his feet.
