Chapter Seventeen - Florence
"Daddy!" Ansel and Charlie ran up to their father who picked them both up at the same time. Hope came running out of her room and over to me
"Auntie Jack" I lifted her up.
"He squirt. How you doing?" I ask her
"I'm good."
"You're good." I grin "Okay, now will you do me a huge favour?" She nodded
"Look after your brothers while they're here. They have been quite cheeky lately, maybe you can be a good influence on them."
"We have the same Dad I doubt they will change that much." I started laughing as Nik looked slightly offended
"I love you Dad." Hope turns round to smile at him.
"Oh you are so you're mother's daughter." I put her down then went over to the boys.
"Have fun and don't drive the others too crazy." They giggle and nod in my direction. Stefan and I were going to Italy for a few days. Love, Romance, maybe make a baby. No pressure. We didn't know how long this stuff would last so well I'm not going to start using vulgar terms that Nik has been using since he found out what Stefan and I were planning.
"Have fun while."
"Bye Nik." I cut him off causing him to chuckle. I got in the awaiting car with my husband and we drove to the airport.
Arriving in Florence I snuggled into Stefan as we were driven to the hotel. He kissed my head and I looked up at him
"I love you, Stefan."
"I love you more." When we arrived at the hotel we settled in and I looked out over the city. Stefan came and handed me a drink before slipping an arm around me.
"It's beautiful."
"You are." I started giggling at the comment
"You are so cheesy. That was so cheesy."
"Well, isn't it one of the many reasons why you love me so much." I hummed and took a sip of my drink.
"Ugh, what is this?" I loked down at the amber liquid.
"The hopeful future together." I looked up into his eyes a little shocked
"This, is the potion from the girls?"
"Yeah, I thought it would taste a little better mixed with alcohol." Yeah not the best idea he's had. But I didn't think this was going to be easy.
"Nope, but thank you anyway." I finished it off. He did too and well there was no time to start like the present.
Over the next five days we explored, danced, eat (human food), drank, made love, lived life like a human was living their last days. I sat in the airport looking through the pictures giggling. There was one of me and him on a gondola boat ride. I smiled fondly at it.
