After a great day with Avery on her birthday; my morning gifts to her, breakfast with both sides of the family. It was finally time I had dinner with her.

"Again, I just wanna say thank you for all my gifts." She smiled, my hand holding hers over the table. "You deserve it, beautiful. You're welcome." I smiled at her.

She is just so gorgeous.

I have never been so in love with someone. A life without Avery would be like the moon without the sun.

"But I have one more gift for you," I pulled a tiny box out of my pocket. I undid the ribbon and opened the box. She was quick to react with a huge across her face. I grabbed the ring, "Give me your hand," I smiled up to her as she did so.

"It's a ring with your birthstone color. Opal." I slid it through her finger. "I love it, oh my god. Thank you so much, baby. I love you." Avery practically launched around the table to give me the most love and warmful hug.

"You're welcome, beautiful." I eagerly smiled, leaning in for another kiss once her soft lips offered for the first.

After we ordered, I watched as Avery admired the rain outside.

She's so beautiful.

My phone buzzed, grabbing my attention to the notification. "Oo. Both families of ours are going to visit my grandparents in Hawaii so that means we have to watch my little cousin, Aria."

"Aww. I can't wait, she's so cute." Avery smiled, showing her dimple.

Unfortunately, Avery and I had to finish some schoolwork but it's okay because eachother is vacation.

"They'll drop her off tomorrow morning." I put down my phone and she nodded. The waitress had set our dishes in front of us and Avery and I began to pray.

"Mm. I'm low-key looking forward to something sweet. You got room for dessert?" I asked Avery as we both had set our finished plates aside. "Always, am I down for dessert." She chuckled and grabbed the sweet course menu.

Avery and I walked up my house stairs, going into my bedroom. "Fuck. Today was a great day." I tossed my shoes to the side. "Nels." I heard Avery's voice as she closed the door behind her.

"Yes?" My attention drew to her.

"Thank you for everything. Truly, you made my birthday a great one." She gently placed her palms on my cheeks and her eyes lit up into mine. My arms instantly made their way on her waist and we both leaned in for a kiss.

"You are very welcome, Ave. You deserve it. All of it." I smiled, face lying in the crook of her neck and I smelt that calming aroma of her perfume.

It was the day after a spectacular one. Nelson and I walked down the stairs to spot his mother and little cousin, Aria. She was beautiful. She had the same blue- ocean like eyes as her family members.

"There they are!" Cassie smiled to Nelson and I then back to her niece who was propped in her arms, "You're babysitters!"

I had met Aria yesterday at breakfast. She's a sweet little angel.

"Hi, Nelsy!" Aria hugged his leg and he looked did and grinned. "Hey, Aria!" He picked her up. "Okay. Your dad and brothers are waiting for me in the car," Cassie looked at her son. "I left you guys breakfast on the island counter. If you guys need anything text me, okay. Be safe, I love you all!"

"I love you too, Cass!" I said as she hugged her son and I.

"Bye, Mom. I love you!"

"Ari, have you ate yet?" I asked as Nelson and I sat at the island counter. "Mhm." She nodded, sipping on her orange juice. "What did you eat?" I heard Nelson ask. "Mcdonald's pancakes!" She said with a smile.

"Mm. Those are good," Nelson cleaned his mouth with a napkin. "I'll be back, I'm gonna use the restroom." He stood up from his seat and walked into the hallway. "Oo, who gave you that pretty ring, Avey?" Aria looked up to me. "Your cousin Nelson gave it to me."

"Ohh. It's so pretty."

"Thank you, pretty girl. Do you want a snack?" I offered, holding the fridge handle.

"Yes please!" She replied, eagerly.

"Okay, what do you want?" I chuckled from how cute she was. Her long lashes could be seen from the sun flashing through the glass windows. "Vanilla yogurt with blueberry please!"

Nelson had came back to his seat. "Nelsy, you gave Avey that ring?" 

"Mhm. It's pretty, right?" He nodded. "Yes but you're too little to get married." Aria made he and I laugh. "It's a birthstone, silly." Nelson lied a boop on her nose. "Here, Ari." I set the bowl of yogurt on the island counter. "Thank you!" She smiled.

"You're welcome, Jelly Bean."

12:38pm

"Aria, what do you wanna eat later on? Do you want us to make?" I asked. "Or order something?" Nelson asked as she watched  Curious George on the living room tv. "Mm, can we get Chick-fil-a, please." She said.

"Mhm. Let me order it," Nelson pulled out his phone from his pocket.

"It says it'll be here in.. seventeen minutes!"

"Okay. Ari, do you want to take a bath after we eat?" I asked. "Yes, yes! With bubbles!" She exclaimed. "Okay, with bubbles." I laughed.

"Ready for your bath?" I looked over to Aria as she came back from throwing her leftover trash in the kitchen.

"Yes." She nodded.

"Okay." I took a refreshing sip of my drink pepper. "Aria's gonna go take a bath!" I picked her up and began to dance. "Don't put too much bubbles!" Nelson pointed to his little cousin in a jokingly manner. We all shared a laugh.

Nelson lied on his bed after finishing his lunch, Me bathing his little cousin in his bathroom. "Bubbles, bubbles!" Aria reminded me. "Oh, right! I almost forgot." I grabbed the bottle and began to squeeze.

"Baby, can you get her pajamas and lay them on the bed, please." I said, looking outside the frame of the bathroom door.

"Sure thing," Nelson got up from the bed, doing so.

"Do you need help?" He stood at the door frame. "Yes, please. Can you get a towel?"

"Yes ma'am." Nelson walked out of the room.

I came out of the bathroom, sitting dressed Aria on the bed. "Look, Nelson! Aria's a unicorn!" I said as she climbed to the other side of the bed. "I love unicorns!" He moved the pillow so she can lay beside him. "Me too." Aria said in her pink unicorn onesie.
