"Matteo, can I ask you a question?" Lilly asked, looking up at him.
"That was a question." he joked.
She giggled, "I mean a different question, just something that I'm curious about."
He nodded, "What is your question then?"
"Why do you call me 'flo...

Matteo had planted a kiss on Lilly's head, keeping his arm wrapped around her as they waited for Liam to come back.
He felt himself becoming soft when he was around her, normally he would've never shaken hands with someone he barely knew like that unless it was a family member. But seeing the happy look of excitement on Lilly's face as she noticed how he looked at Liam so calmly, it changed him.
Lilly was so proud of herself for gaining enough of Matteo's trust to even let her go outside to see a friend. She could've easily ratted Matteo out to save herself, but she loved him so much that she wanted to stay with him forever. The kidnapping part didn't bother her one bit, she was happy it at least happened with the good intentions of keeping her safe and loving her.
"I just had a strange thought..." Lilly said before lifting her head up to Matteo, "Cloud is almost like our child."
Matteo chuckled as he looked down at her, "Oh really? How so?"
Lilly looked back down at Cloud sitting on her lap, "Well because we're dating each other and we both care for Cloud like he's our own kid, so he's like our own little child."
The sudden thought of having a child with Lilly had popped into Matteo's head, imagining her holding one in her arms and cradling it, tell it how much they love it. The thought about a small child running around the house, running around outside, maybe even at a park. The thought of Lilly playing with it like how she plays hand games with Cloud.
He knew it was too early to be thinking about have a family with her, but he couldn't help loving the thoughts about it.
"Matteo honey, are you okay?" Lilly asked once she noticed the way he was looking at her.
Matteo smiled softly at her, admiring her face as he felt his heart pounding for her. He didn't know he could love her the way it did, it felt so different but so good.
"I'm better than okay, flower." Matteo said calmly, putting a smile on Lilly's face before looking away, "Since when did you start using names like 'honey'?"
She shrugged her shoulders, "You call me flower, princess, and so on. I just call you by your name and it doesn't seem so special. Unless you don't like being called honey— oh my god I'm so sorry, I should've asked yo—"
