Neverland Valley Ranch

Zoe's POV

The familiar smell synonymous with Neverland hit my nostrils as soon as I stepped foot in the front door. I stood in the foyer, looking around and observing everything. It hasn't changed one bit.

"Heaven is in the playroom with Sarah. Come on." Michael said, looping an arm around my waist.

"Playroom?" I questioned.

He nodded as he lead me down the halls. "It was Junior's idea."

We stopped in front of a room right next to the library. The door was already open, so we stepped inside. The room was filled with every toy you can imagine, painted multiple colors, and even had a television in it. A smile immediately spread across my face when I saw my baby sitting on the nanny's lap in a rocking chair.

"Hi, baby!" I grinned. "Hey, Mommy's girl!"

Heaven looked up at me and gave me a full on gummy smile. My heart instantly melted when she let out a small giggle. She recognizes me.

I wanted to run to her but the shakiness of my legs reminded me that I couldn't. "Could you bring her here, please?" I asked Sarah.

She seemed slightly ashamed as she stood up with Heaven and crossed the room, placing her in my arms.

"Oh I missed you..." I said, holding her close to my chest and kissing her head. "Did you miss Mommy?"

She giggled again, as if to say "yes". I smiled at Michael who smirked in return.

"Let's go to the living room, so you can sit down with her." Michael suggested.

I passed Heaven to him and grabbed his arm as we walked to the living room. When we reached the room my jaw dropped and I smiled wider than I ever have before.

The entire room was decorated beautifully. Across the far left wall there was a banner that read "Happy Mother's Day". The ground was lined with gift boxes and presents, and all of our family portraits were set up. A table beside the couch was stacked with all of my favorite snacks and foods, including Hershey's kisses, Spanish beans, and strawberry cheesecake. I giggled at how weird all of the different foods looked together.

"Happy Mother's Day, baby." Michael said with a sweet smile.

I embraced him warmly. "Thank you so much, Michael. I can't believe you did all of this..."

"Junior and I have something else to show you. Right, buddy?"

"Right!" He shouted, popping up from behind the couch. I giggled as he ran over to me and grabbed my hand, guiding me to couch slowly. I sat down and Michael brought Heaven to me. I held her on my lap and looked up to see that Michael and Junior had disappeared. I laughed. No telling what they're up to. I observed the room again, smiling at all of our pictures. I can vividly remember the exact moment when all of these were taken.

"Did you plan all of this, baby girl?" I asked Heaven. She let out a high pitched screech, which made me chuckle. I've never met another 4 month old whose always in a good mood.

Michael and Junior re-entered the room in new outfits. They both had on fedoras, penny loafers, aviator shades, and black and gold military jackets.

I laughed as they came and stood in front of me. "Look at you boys! You guys are so cute!" I giggled. "Oh my gosh Michael he looks like your little clone in this outfit!" I beamed.

Michael smiled. "Junior do you want to introduce the show?" He spoke into a microphone that seemed to appear out of nowhere. I looked around the room. Where are the speakers? Where did that microphone come from?
