Love At First Joke | Sal Vulcano

"And? What are they?" He replied, surprisingly calm.

"I-I don't want to say...you wanted to leave it a surprise" Cassie answered.

"Yeah but now you know, I may as well too...right?" He lightly chuckled.

Cassie shook her head and began to walk out of the room.

The whole car ride home, Sal was asking the same questions over and over again.

"Sal, I'm not going to tell you. I knew how much it meant to you to leave it a surprise and that's what I'll do. I'm sorry." Cassie sighed.

"But that was because we agreed." Sal breathed.

Cassie walked indoors without saying another word.

The pair spent the rest of the evening not saying a word to each other. Just cuddling up on the couch, watching films until late into the night.

Sal had nodded off to sleep. Cassie picked up her phone and made a group chat with Murr, Q and Joe.

Cassie: Hey boys, can you help me with something?

Joe: Sure thing Cas!

Murr: Of course :)

Q: We'll help with anything Cassie.

Cassie: Thanks...Can you guys help me reveal the sexes of the babies to Sal as a punishment?

Murr: BRILLIANT IDEA

Q: I'm down!

Joe: This is going to be great!

Cassie continued discussing and creating a punishment for Sal with the guys. They'd decided to punish Sal in a week's time. In the mean time, Cassie would have to fight the urge to spoil the surprise.

**

It was the day of Sal's punishment. He had no idea what was to come, which only made it more nerve-wracking.

Sal had said his goodbyes to Cassie and walked out the front door and into his car. He drove off, making his way to the location of his punishment - a warehouse.

Joe came round after Cassie had told him that Sal had left, so that Cassie was able to join them at the punishment.

"You ready?" Joe asked, grinning at Cassie as he drove.

"Absolutely, I just hope you guys pull it off okay!" She giggled excitedly.

"Of course we will" Joe laughed.

Joe pulled up at the location and helped Cassie out of the car. She hid in a different room, as the guys began to film the introduction to Sal's punishment.

"So today is Sal's punishment. We're here at a warehouse and let's just say...things are going to get exciting!" Murr exclaimed, smiling at the camera.

"That's right. Sal today, you're going to be hung on a high wire and be smashed into a giant cake!" Joe grinned.

"Again? Guys no please!" Sal cried.

"This is going to be a piece of cake!" Q said, winking at the camera.

"Bad joke man" Sal sighed.

**

Sal was in place. He had been strapped into his harness and was ready for the punishment to be over.

As he was waiting to be lifted up into the air, he noticed Cassie walk in and stand beside the others.

"Baby, what are you doing here?" He smiled.

"Well...you said you wanted to know whether we're having boys or girls or both..." she smirked. "Well here you go." Cassie smashed a red button once Sal had reached the top and he began to swing back and forth.

His face screwed up as he began to scream like a little girl. His face dropped as the wire began to swing him down towards the giant cake.

"Wait! I don't have a helmet!" He cried as he smashed forcefully into the cake. A burst of blue and pink cake mixture fell from his face.

"We're having a boy and a girl?!" He exclaimed through his joyful tears. Cassie ran up to him after he had been unhooked from the ropes.

"Yes!" She squealed as she hugged him tightly, not caring if she got cake all over her.

He pulled her face to his and locked their lips together. Their lips moulded together and moved together in perfect harmony.

"Guys please, it's a family friendly show." Joe joked.

**

As Sal and Cassie returned home, they both got washed up and laid on the couch and snuggled together under a blanket.

"I can't believe we're having a boy and a girl." Sal smiled, as he placed a kiss to Cassie's cheek.

"I know" she replied. "We're going to have to start thinking of some names."

"Ja Crispy?" Sal teased, causing Cassie to giggle.

"I was thinking more Tony Gunk" Cassie laughed.

"Absolutely NOT" Sal scoffed. "What about we choose one each?"

"Yeah okay...you choose our baby boy's name and I'll choose our baby girl's name" She smiled.

"Anthony" Sal whispered into her ear. "I want my son to be called Anthony, after my grandfather."

"I love it" Cassie replied, kissing his cheek. "What about Riley for our girl?" She asked.

"Beautiful" Sal replied.

The couple soon drifted off to sleep, held in each other's arms.
