A/N: hello guys. How are you?
A lot of things have happened since last time. The boys won two tca awards and I'm so happy. Also I'm working on a new story which I'm so happy about. Thanks.

Hayden's Pov

''I think everything is settle.'' I announced as I took a step back and admired the scene in front of me. I just finished with the table where we were going to eat tonight. Where Graysons family was going to meet Valentino and where Valentino wass going to finally meet his other family.

''It's beautiful. Well done Hayden.'' Michaela said and we high fived each other. After thinking it, I decided that I would need someone to back me up if things got out of hand tonight so instead of telling her to leave I announced to her that she was going to stay and have my back. Michaela immediately agreed with me without further discussion.

''Thanks. Valentino baby come hear.'' I shouted for him. He was on the living room watching TV, which kept him occupied for a really long time. I needed to dress him so I could dress myself next. Soon his little form made it to the dining room where we were. He came to my direction and looked up at me. I smiled at him and bent down to his level.

''We need to go and dress.'' I told him and he nodded his head. I took him on my arms and turned to Michaela.'' You also need to dress mistress.''

''Don't you thing you're overreacting? It's not like we didn't met Grayson's parents before.'' She argued and I rolled my eyes.

''Just do this for me. I haven't seen them for three years and I don't know what their reaction will be. So, I need to make a good one.'' I said with my puppy eyes. Now it was her turn to roll her eyes.'' Please?''

''Okay, I will. Just to let you know, this is the last thing I'm going to do for you.'' She said pointing her finger at me which made me laugh. Valentino was looking at us like we were crazy but laughed too anyway.

''I know it won't be. And thanks. I hope that the night will go quiet. I can't take any more fights.'' I told her and she nodded her head and patted my back.

''Hope so. Now go and dress the monkey.'' Michaela tickled Valentino's sides which made him do a crazy dance on my hands and laughed loud.

''No tickle Micky.'' Valentino tried to say between his laughs. Michaela finally stopped and let me to go upstairs. I walked to our room and placed him on the bed. I started taking off his pajamas as Valentino asked me.

''Mommy, who coming to home?''

''Well tonight are coming daddy's parents so you can meet them.'' I explained as simple as I could. I watched him as he process the whole thing on his little brain and then his eyes lit up. I took his shirt off the bed and placed it around his arms.

''Like nanna Am and pappa Lyan?'' He asked me referring to my mom and Ryan. I nodded my head smiling.

''Yeah...just like them but they are daddy's mom and dad.'' I reminded him and I buttoned up his shirt and took his jeans and quickly put them on. I took him then to the bathroom and put in his hair jell and I believed he was done. I took a step back in order to look at him and I could say my heart melt. Valentino was so beautiful, he looked exactly like his father and I was proud for him, so proud. I smiled and kissed his head.

''I think you're ready Sir.'' I informed him and helped him get down off the bed but not before giving me a sweet kiss.'' Don't get dirty on your clothes.''

''Adios.'' He shouted to me and run out of the room. I taught him some Spanish words here and there because don't get me wrong I wanted to know something from his other culture. Because I was proud half Spanish girl.

Now it was the time to get myself ready. I had already picked out what I was going to wear tonight just like Valentino's, but I started with my make up which was foundation, mascara and a fade pink lipstick. When I was done applying my make up I started to dress, I had picked black shorts coveralls because no way I was going to wear something else because it was so hot today and because I needed to be formal. I thought something like this will be perfect.

Also, I curled my hair because I like so much curls. It was my weak spot about hairstyle.

After I was done I walked downstairs where I found Michaela and Valentino too consecrate in the cartoons they were watching. I grinned mostly at Michaela because that girl would surprise me all the time. Now with Valentino, the kid inside her was constantly outside, I meant she would always play, watched cartoons and anything else a kid would do.

''What do you think?'' I asked Michaela when I stood in front of her. She eyed me up and down and she nodded her head.

''Beautiful. Great choice.'' She replied and winked at me. I rolled my eyes.'' You are trying hard to win him back right?''

''Isn't it obvious? But for tonight I am trying to win his parents because this dinner is going to be crucial.'' I told her and she struggled. It would mean a lot to me and Valentino as well. I knew Grayson said that his parents seems to be okay with this but I didn't know. I had a feeling that I needed to try as well, win their trust again.

''Alright, do what you believe is okay. Not going to say anything. We will just watch, right Valentino?'' She questioned him and Valentino just nodded his head without looking up or knowing what we were talking about. He just laid in her lap making himself comfortable and still looking at the screen.

''Valentino will not know what will happen tonight.'' I commented pointing to my son. Michaela shook her head trying to avoid me and without wanting to continue talking to her I walked to the kitchen and took my phone which was laying on the counter and checked it if there was any missed call or text from Grayson but no. Nothing.

I didn't have anything to do, everything was set and the only thing missing was Grayson and his family, so I started looking at the photos I had on my phone. I had over three hundred pictures and believe me only like ten were of me. The rest of them were about Valentino. The day he was born until today. I was addicted with photography and I liked to snap everything about him.

And that made me think that I should probably work with photography since I couldn't really work out anything else, no time for college or anything like this. My dream job was be a maths teacher but being a pregnant teenager girl and then a single mom kept me occupied.

I wouldwork on it.

As I was going through the photos the door bell rang. Here we came.

I pulled my phone to the side and walked tot he front door and opened it. There was standing my once second family. I had a strange feeling that we would get there very fast. I greeted them all, one by one. Starting with the twins, then Cameron who was so excited and then with their parents. Their dad, Sean, was all smiles and their mom, Lisa, was happy but tried to keep it hidden, something I knew she did.

''I am so glad to see you again.'' I said to them.

''It's our pleasure,'' Lisa said and hugged me tightly. I was surprised from this but I hugged her back and felt that familiar feeling. The love of a mother. She used to be a second mother to me and I thought this didn't change much.'' Oh I missed you so much Hayden.''

''I did too.'' I confessed to her and then I felt someone pulling me out of her arms, it was Cameron. She hugged me tightly to the point that I couldn't breath. I laughed at her reaction.'' Missed you too Cam.''

''So where is he? Where's my little nephew? I want to meet him bad.'' She started bubbling.

Before I could answer Michaela's voice filled the room.'' Here he is.''

''Everyone please meet Valentino.''

The night went amazing. Everyone loved Valentino and Valentino loved everyone.
