Ivana's POV
Eleanor and I wanted a family weekend. Just me, her and Evie. So, we packed the car and drove to a little hotel by the beach. The hotel wasn't actually little. It was huge and quite glamorous. There was a restaurant and pool inside.

Truth be told, I had more planned for the weekend. I had a ring box burning a hole in my pocket. I'd bought it a while ago and I figured this weekend would be the perfect time.

"Honey, can you take Evie for a second?" Eleanor asked.

We were waiting to be checked into our hotel room and Evie was getting fussy. She slept most of the drive and now she was hungry and grumpy.

"Just a little while longer, bubbas," I whispered to her, "sh, sh, shhh."

I bounced her gently on my hip. The man at reception finally checked us in and gave us our room key. We quickly headed up and got comfortable in our room.

It was quite large. A king bed sat against the wall with a crib against the other. Out the floor to curling windows, we had a nice view of the beach. It was beautiful.

"You feed her, I'll unpack," I said.

"Okay," Eleanor sighed.

I handed her the baby and kissed her gently before I grabbed our luggage and unzipped it.
