His Soft Spot

{Fifty Three}

"Sh, princesa you can't wake up mommy." I heard Dante whispered, cradling Lilah in his arms, trying to get her to sleep. Luckily Romeo wasn't waking up. He laid her back down in her crib but she screamed harder.

I walked into the room and he looked up at me, a frown taking place of his face, "shit, I'm sorry kitten."

"It's fine." I said, walking over to him, "it's like I can tell when you slip away from me." Dante chuckled softly as he picked Lilah back up and this time, she stopped crying. Just like that. As he went to lay her down she began to wail again. "How about they come sleep with us tonight."

I picked up the sleeping Romeo and he didn't do as much as yawn. He nodded in agreement and we carried them back to our room, getting on the bed and laying them between us. As soon as Lilah was out of Dante's arms she began to cry.

She's such a daddy's girl.

Or, papá.

We settled on that. Obviously they aren't gonna say that off the bat, maybe dada, but Dante and I agreed that we want them to know how to speak Spanish, as it is in their blood from both of us. For me, they will probably say mama first but I also wouldn't mind being called mamá. Especially since that's what I called my mom sometimes, and is what Dante calls his mother. Of course now Ciara is Abuela which she is overjoyed with. Seriously, she was crying.

Dante moved Lilah to lay on top of his chest and of course she stopped crying. Just for the fun of it I moved Romeo to my chest and he didn't protest.

When I looked over at Dante, I saw he was already looking, and had a small smile. I smiled back.

"Whatcha thinking about Cherry?" I whispered.

"Just how beautiful you are." He whispered back.

"I haven't even showered today." I said, though that didn't stop the blush taking place on my cheeks.

"That doesn't matter." He leaned forward gently and kissed me. "You're still my pretty girl."

>><<

"I got milk in the fridge." I told Cass, "and their sleep clothes are already out. Oh and if Romeo gets a spoon, do yourself a favour and don't take it away from him. It'll never happen."

"C'mon baby. We're going to be late." Dante tugged on my arm.

"They can eat a little piece of banana whenever and at eight they can have their bottled. After that they should be out for an hour, then give another half to them. After that you're good." I continued.

"They know kitten. Let's go." Dante groaned.

"Okay. Okay." I sighed. "But call if anything happens. We will be right back."

"We probably won't. Now go. You need this." Cass sighed, I didn't move. "Dante, you're gonna need your shoulder."

"Where did Alex go?" I asked.

"He's in the nursery. He loves those two." She said, "bitch go. Now. And if you need us to take them for the night, we're all for it."

"Thank you. Kitten, move." Dante mumbled to me.

"I don't know- Dante!" I squealed, this man put me over his shoulder half way through my sentence.

"Thanks." Dante said again. He grabbed my purse for me and carried me out of the place, closing the door behind him. He didn't put me down till we got to the fucking car.

"I can't believe you just did that." I mumbled and crossed my arms.

"Don't be pouty, seatbelt on." I huffed and did, he walked around the car and got in, starting it. As we pulled out of the parking space, I looked up at the tall building. "I don't trust many kitten, but I trust Cass and Alex with my babies. You should too." He put his hand on my thigh, over top my dress.
