His Only

Chapter 70

8 Months Later

Kaitlyn's hands rested gently on her belly full of life. She remembered this stage from before but she was alone in it. Right now was different, she had her husband and a son more over, and she had her entire family right by her side. She wore an Iris thin strap dress with a V-cut in the front, to cover up the top part of her because her breasts had grown much larger for her pregnancy and she felt insecure about how big her arms had gotten. The thin dress didn't help her but she took a grey knitted overcoat to cover herself, it was quite warm in Mexico but she didn't mind. She planned only to cover herself for the public photos. 

As she stared her mind wandered, 'this time it'll be different' she thought, her hand subconsciously moving to her belly again. "It will work out" she says in a whisper, 'he's in love. Alia was just a big mistake and she manipulated him well. Amy was genuine' her voice spoke putting her bother's happiness above hers. If Amy and Alex didn't work out it would put a big barrier in between her friendship but they've been dating for long, if there were flaws they would've sorted it out years ago. Her heart swelled with love for the new beginnings they were about to embark on, soon she and Amy would be sisters on paper and in the new future share moments as moms and maybe even grandmoms. 

"What are you crying for?" Ricardo wrapped his big arms around her chest, pulling her to lean on him. He softly kissed her neck, circling her belly, and a little smile came into play.

"I- I don't know" she wipes the tears away holding onto Ricardo's arms, "just really emotional" she tells him. She turned around facing him because of her belly a small distance stood but she still wrapped her arms around his neck kissing him on the lips. Ricardo could tell Kaitlyn was crowded with emotion after all her best friend and brother were getting married today. He wrapped his arms around her back and let her stay in his embrace for however long she wanted. "We got to go down" she whispers, "But this feels good" she mumbles and Ricardo chuckles, he looks down at her cupping her rosy cheeks in his palms, 

"Don't complain so much" he kisses her tenderly. 

She recollects herself and taps on his shoulder fixing his suit. "You look handsome" she comments and buttons the suit sharp. "Let's go" she orders and he immediately steps to the side, 

"Lead the way mistress" he jokes holding his hand. 

The walls of the Mexican mansion exude opulence, adorned with rich tapestries and marble floors that gleam under the light of the grand chandeliers. The main staircases were dropped with white and gold ribbons and orchids filled the air mingling with subtle fragrance. The main room swept with high ceilings dripped with elegance. The room is lined with tall columns wrapped in white fabric and splashes of gold around it. Light music played the part and the whole house was alive with children running, laughter, yelps and love. 

A delicate Aisle covers the middle of the ballroom and seating arrangements are placed for only 50 people, it was how the family celebrated a 'small' wedding. White expensive linen covered the golden chairs and finished off with satin shashes of blush pink. The altar sits at the far end under a floral arch of painted golden roses paired with white roses and hints of Orchis flowing down.   

The guests flowed in and started to take their seats after greeting Antonio and Alex who were well dressed in suits. The AC cooled the guests inside, for a typical garden party the guests would've melted under the Mexican heat and some women seemed happy about where the wedding was held because Alex's and Amy's wedding was noted as the wedding for the year especially because it wasn't public. 

"Papi" Kaitlyn calls from the entrance of the ballroom

"Mi Hija!" He gasps and walks to hug her, "such beauty" he compliments kissing her forehead, "how is my grandkid doing" he pulls his wrinkled lips up smiling down,
