Moonlight In A Dark Sky

"Oh. My. God." Ariana said shocked, everyone was shocked, no one was really expecting a proposal from Zeno.

Zeno and Alexa just smiled at each other, time seemed to stop as they both caught in the moment. It was like it was just them everyone else just disappeared.

"We still don't know if you're have a girl or boy." Sean mentioned bringing them back to reality

"The cake is in the kitchen." Zeno said

"Oh my god lex!" Sasha and Ariana said excitedly as they looked at the ring on Alexa's finger

"Zeno is so sweet!" Sasha said "can I have him"

Alexa laughed and shook her head no and followed Zeno and everyone else into Sean's kitchen. Zeno got a cake out of the fridge and set it on the counter in front of Alexa and himself. Alexa admired how the cake was decorated, sad for a split second that they would be cutting into its perfection.

"Okay," Zeno said "Now are you guys ready?" He asked, everyone nodding their head in excitement.

Alexa and Zeno cut into the cake together, cutting a piece out putting it on a plate, for everyone to see. saying I knew and I told you so as the saw the colour of the cake.

"It's a boy" Zeno said to Alexa

"It's a boy" she repeated back to him

*****************

An hour later after everyone had a piece of cake some having a few more and after Alexa opened the many many gifts bought buy her friends and family. Everyone left to go back to their homes leaving Ariana Sean Alexa and Zeno.

Zeno and Sean were loading the car up with all the gift that they got, while Ariana and Alexa were in the kitchen snacking on the food that was left from the party.

"So how's excited are you that you're have a baby boy." Ariana asked Alexa as she put a strawberry in her mouth

"I'm actually so happy he's a boy, I don't know what I would be with a girl." Alexa told Ariana rubbing her Abaya bump

"And you're engaged!" Ariana said for about the 100th time. Admiring Alexa's ring

"You know I've never seen you eat this much" Alexa noted

"What do you mean?" Ariana asked as she looked in the fridge for something to drink

"You haven't stopped eating all day, you always have something in your hands that you're eating." Alexa said "you almost eat as much as me" she joked

Ariana turned to Alexa eating a piece of cake and tried giving her a smile failing and grimaced instead. Alexa stared at Ariana as he ate noticing the she may have put on some weight, probably because she's eating like sh-

Her thoughts were interuppted by Ariana throwing a grape at her.

"What's up?" Ariana asked "You're just staring into space."

"Ariana," Alexa started "We're best friends, right?"

"Yeah like sisters, why?"

"Then the heck didn't you tell me?" Alexa said throwing the grape back at her

"Tell you what?"

"That you're-"

"Okay babe everythingis loaded so we can go now." Zeno interuppted Alexa, the four friends said their goodbyes and Zeno and Alexa were on their way home for the night.
