Unexpected Love

Chapter 36

Catalina.

"You look beautiful sweetie," Adelia gushed as she helped me into my shoes.

Normally I would be embarrassed to have someone help me but given the circumstances that was my giant stomach, I was glad for the little help.

"She does, doesn't she?" Izzy asked as she did Diana's makeup,"I hope Cris knows it,"

"Of course he does, why do you think she's knocked up in the first place?" Diana cheeked,"Always got to remind her physically that she's beautiful."

"Izzy could you do me a favour and poke Di in the eye with the eyeliner?" I threw over my shoulder.

"Hey don't you dare!" Diana warned her but Izzy just shrugged and continued to fix her eyeshadow with a look of concentration on her face.

"Is everyone here as yet?" Izzy asked Adelia.

"It looks so. Downstairs is pretty full right now,"

"I'm so glad everyone is here. I haven't seen you all in quite sometime," I sighed, sitting down on the couch next to Adelia.

"You saw me this morning," Diana quipped, brushing a strand of hair from her head.

"I hate you Di," I deadpanned.

"Love you too Jimena,"

"Anyway, if I wasn't with Adam, I would totally be in heaven right now thanking god for his creations. Have you seen some of Cris' teammates? Goddamn!" Diana fanned herself.

"Forever thirsty you are," Adelia rolled her eyes.

"But you have to admit those are some fine specimen of men out there," Izzy quipped,"Like is it a requirement to make the team? You have to be good looking?"

"Probably, since they'd be in the news everyday,"Adelia laughed.

"Come on, let's go. Cris is probably dying to see you since we had to chase him away from here."

We made our way down the stairs, slowly but surely, with the girls doting on me all the way. I had to remind them in a not so kind way I was just pregnant not dying.

I was in awe with the beauty of the grounds. Cris did really well in getting the place together and completely transforming it. The entrance to the tent was lined with small, white lanterns and on the inside was decorated with gold and white fairy lights and a large crystal chandelier hanging from the centre.

"This is wonderful," Izzy whispered.

"It is," Adelia said coming through the tent behind us.

"I'm glad you ladies like it," Cris wound his arm around my waist,"I wanted the best for my woman,"

"You two make me sick I hope you know that," Diana groaned as I pecked Cris on the lips.

"I'm glad we do," I replied. Diana rolled her eyes and stalked off, the laughing figures of Izzy and Adelia following her.

"You're looking radiant my dear,"He whispered in my ear,"I'm glad they made me wait, it was definitely worth it. I could just imagine how you would look on our wedding day."

"Thank you. It's these kids you put inside me. I hope when we get married all the baby fat will be gone," I grinned.

"How are they today?"

"Fine but my stomach does feel a bit tight tonight. I've been feeling that way since this morning,"

"Are sure you're okay?" His gaze laced with concern.
