Love Lives On

Mia And Andrew, Carlton Then Collin

Mia
Andrew and I went to the island, but we fought and finally just flew back home. I dated someone else, I found out he was keeping something from me and was too mad to stick it out even on an island paradise. Carlton was just way to anxious for babies for my taste. One night I bumped into someone that I had seen before but forgot his name. Collin Knight has been trying to find a good location for a housing development around Seattle and he comes from old money. I think I know why I didn't pay attention to him at events, because he has that pompous ass attitude down to a T. We found the only table left in the coffee shop across from the culinary school and I allowed him to sit with me if he could keep quiet.

I can't believe she just said that to me of all people. As much as she babbles on incessantly. It's all about Mia and what she is up against. Good Lord she has no idea how narcissistic her behavior is. I finally finish my coffee and my torte and thank her for allowing me use of her table and chair. She caught the sarcasm and asked me what my problem was. I told her quietly where no one could hear it. You are my problem, the wall you built is too high for anyone to go over, you need to lower the drawbridges and allow yourself to know the person or persons in front of you. Namely me. I think you and I could have a wonderful life together if you gave us a chance. Here is my number if you want to chat some more.
Three days later I get a call from her to attend a party with her. I saw her at the airport and had she not been getting on a plane I would have introduced myself then and there. She has been in two bad relationships or what she thought were relationships.

Collin Knight is not a dreamboat, but there is something about him. So I invited him to this Halloween party and we came as Romeo and Juliette. His idea, not mine. A lot of people know him, he finally explained that he really wanted to introduce himself to me, but I was always surrounded by people whom he avoided at all costs. Then he went to explain why and I started looking at those people from his point of view and then he said they were holding me back from being all that I was destined to be. I think even my parents had voiced their opinions on this as well. But some went to school with me. I guess I never stopped to listen and see them for who they really were. Trust fund babies who had no real plans for their futures. They depended on their family and friends generosity. I have to say he was entertaining to be around, plus he loves the simplest things in life even though he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

I have loved her from afar and now I am here with her arm in arm. Mia asks me about children and I am unsure what to tell her regarding that. I have thought about children, but think adoption might be better, but I could change that for the right lady. When Mia said she dated Carlton I bit my tongue and said nothing at all. Most knew he was engaged to marry to Andrew but their parents threatened to take their trust funds away from them and disown them if they didn't find a nice young lady. Too bad they both chose Mia and luckily it ended as quickly as it started with both of them. Can't change what sex you fall in love with.

Carlton went back to his boyfriend Andrew, Collin is right I have failed to pay attention the people around me and who they really are. Tonight they came as Cinderella and Prince Charming. I had no idea Andrew could look like that. He makes a beautiful woman. I don't think their parents realized who he was at all. Mom and dad didn't know. Christian and Elliott knew because he went into the mens room. I knew because he can't hide certain things about himself from me.

Your brother is trying to get your attention. We head over and I guess Kate Miller had her son. He was born two weeks early, Barney is like family so Mia wants to go see them and welcome the new member of the family. Alexander Michael Miller was five pounds and three ounces and 22 inches long. We took off and picked up the gift from Mia's home and went to see the baby.
Mia
I got Kate a breast pump and pads. The baby I bought a couple of baseball outfits with the hats and booties. I thought they were all cute clothes. We got a lot of looks as we got to the hospital and realized we were still in costume. Alexander was born on Halloween. Luckily some hospital staff were in costume as well. Plus the rest of the family arrived in costume too.
Barney
I got paternity leave for our son and to be with my son and wife. I am glad we made it here in time, otherwise I would be delivering my own son.
Lynn
I look at my grandson and he looks like Barney a lot. Enid thinks he looks like Kate, not going to argue about that, I am just going to enjoy our grandson. Ezra has already set up a trust fund for Alexander. Eamon as well.
Ezra
Eamon and I got together and set up trust funds for Alexander. Life insurance plans as well.
Eamon
We bought a bunch of clothes and things for the baby as well. We dropped them off at their new home. Their staff took it from us and closed the front door.
