Today was Chloe's birthday,and to say she was excited was an understatement.she had been jumping around in happiness and telling her few friends that it was going to be amazing.Thankfully we finished planning and getting everything in time for today.

I am currently at the venue waiting for Grayson to come with the cakes.Yes,cakes.as in plural.Grayson made the mistake of asking Chloe what flavor she wanted to which she responded with,

"Vanilla,chocolate,strawberry,and rainbow!"

So now he had to get four cakes to please his little princess.That's what he gets for spoiling her.Just saying.

I greet the incoming guests with a friendly smile and thank them for coming.A few of them i don't recognize since they are from Grayson's part of the family but some of them i do and i try to greet them with a little bit of extra entuciasm.I'm exhausted of all the running around this morning preparing tables and putting balloons that i honestly don't have the energy to even feel excited.

"Where's the birthday girl?!" Alex asks.She walks towards me with a pink box on her arms and Sophia trailing behind her,she also holds a box but a different color.I smile at her and hug her.

"She went to get the cakes with Grayson." I tell her.She nods,disappointed that she didn't get to surprise Chloe.

"Is Jace here yet?" Sophia asks while looking around for him.

"Yea,he came earlier to help me with the decorating." I point to him sitting at a table with his mom and dad.

"Sorry i could't help,again.I really couldn't miss work." She apologizes.I nod,giving her an understanding look.We talk for a little while before they go off to meet Jace's parents.

A small while later,Grayson appears at the entrance with Emma on his arms and Chloe trailing behind him with a cart full of cakes.It's an adorable sight really,Chloe's small frame trying to pull the whole cart loaded with pounds on pounds of cake.

Grayson stops infront of me and gives me a peck on the lips before walking off to help Chloe with the cakes.He turns back around and winks at me cheekily.I roll my eyes.

He's been like this ever since i agreed to move in with him.Small gestures are made towards me like pecks on the lips,hugs,his adorable smiles.They are the smallest of things but honestly,i love every second of it.Never have i felt this happy in my life,well except when my princesses were born.

"Mommy can we break the pinata?!" Chloe's voice snaps me out of my thoughts.I look down at her and nod my head.She claps her hands excitedly before running off to Grayson and asking him to help with the pinata.The both of them disappear into the supply room and come back with a white and pink unicorn.

Chloe watches excitedly as her dad hangs the pinata on the rope.This wasn't some kind of fancy party that you would expect a CEO to throw.It was just a simple kid's party with candies,junk food,and a pinata.

The venue Grayson had rented was absolutely amazing.It's just a simple room,an enormous simple room,with a patio for the pinata.There was a fountain on the outside patio and flowers all around.The kids wore unicorn horns as hats and Chloe wore her costume.She looked adorable.

The kids gathered around the spilled candies on the floor.Eager to get as many as they can.Chloe runs up to me with a handful of candies on her hands and grins happily.

"Look mommy! I got a lot of candies!"

"That's great honey,just don't eat them all or you'll get a tummy ache,okay?" She nods up at me before running back to her new friends.Chloe only has a few friends that live around our block.This doesn't seem to bother her a lot but the minute she saw all the kids attending her party she was ecstatic.Grayson invited a lot of his employees and some close friends of his.Most of them have kids,some around the age of Chloe and some a little older but Chloe hit it off with them immediately.

By 11 pm everyone is gone and Chloe and Emma are asleep.Grayson places them in their room and tucks them in before taking me up to his room.We decided to go to his house instead of my apartment since it was closer and Grayson was too tired to drive even a second longer.

I'm still living in my apartment,Grayson wanted me to move in with him as soon as possible but i still have to sell my apartment since i own it and take care of a lot of other things before making the big move.

"We are alone now..." Grayson says seductively,a smirk covering his handsome face.

"Oh really,now? What should we do,huh?" I ask back with a smirk of my own.He takes a few steps towards me and pulls at my waist to get me closer to him.He places small butterfly kisses on my neck.

"I have a few things in mind..." He mutters against my neck.Suddenly he picks me up over his shoulder and throws me onto the bed before climbing on top of me to continue his gentle assault.The butterflies in my stomach continue to explode as he kisses further down my neck tauntingly.

What this man makes me feel is indescribable.It makes me feel alive but it terrifies me at the same time.I'm scared to let myself fall freely because no one can assure me that he'll catch me completly.What if he one day decides that he's had enough of me and leaves me? He has millions of women lined up for him,most of them way prettier than me.

I'm just waiting for the moment he realies he's had enough of me and hope that he doesn't because i don't think i'll be able to handle the pain.

I'm snapped out of my thoughts by Grayson's touch leaving my body.He sits up so that he's straddling me now and looks down at me with a worried expression on his face.

"You okay?" He asks concerned.I nod my head to tell him i'm okay but he doesn't seem to believe me.I sit up with him too and grab his face in my hands,pecking his lips quickly.

"I'm just tired,okay" I lie.He doesn't seem to believe me but doesn't press on the matter any further.I really don't want to lie to him but what else can i say? I'm so terrified of losing you that i want to lock you up in my non-existent basement? Yea,doesn't sound that good.

I just hope my heart will resist the heartbreak.And my two little princesses.

Grayson lays back down on the bed,pulling me to his chest.Althought our bodies are close i know he can feel how distant i am towards him but he stays quiet,only placing small kisses across the back of my head and muttering sweet nothings into my ear until i fall asleep.

The last thing i hear is the quiet humming of his voice against my ear.
