Third Book in the Trapped Trilogy.
Ariana and Justin's life is going great. 2 kids, and 2 more on the way, amazing house, 2 great jobs, and very successful. That is, until, someone from the past returns and ruins everything. Everything is going dow...
"You got it, babe. I'm gonna take Bella to daycare, stop at Starbucks on the way back for you, of course, and we can leave. You said it was at 11:30 am, right?" Justin says.
"Yes, it is. So I'll see you when you get back then?"
"Yep. I love you." Justin kisses me and I wave to Bella before they leave.
"Now lets get you two ready. I'm glad daddy already gave you a bath cause I don't know if we would have time. Who wants to go first?" I ask the twins.
They both just lay there, half asleep, staring at the ceiling.
"Fine, I'll pick. How about you, Alessia? Or should I say Lessi. That is a really cute nickname." I laugh.
I already have their outfits laid out on my bed so I just have to get them dressed and put them in their car seats which are downstairs.
I take Alessia's onesie off and put on her new one with some plain black leggings.

After I put her white socks on, I lay her back down where she was and pick Alex up.
"Your turn."
I undress Alex and put his onesie on with some joggers.

I know Justin will love this outfit of his, which is the main reason I picked it.
"Alright, you two. You're ready to go to your first doctors appointment. No shots today, thankfully."
"So, mental checklist. You're fed, your diapers are changed, you're dressed, the diaper bag is packed and you look happy enough. Oh, Alessia, I forgot your bow." I go grab Alessia's bow from her room before returning to mine.
"Perfection. Now, I just need to get you in your car seats."
I take the twins down to the living room and lay them both down on the couch. I put Alex in his car seat first then Alessia in hers.
"Hopefully daddy will be back soon. I need my coffee." I sit on the couch and rock their car seats until I hear my phone ringing from upstairs.
"Fuck. Back up the stairs I go."
I run to grab my phone to see it's Justin face timing me.
"Hey, baby. What's up?"
"I'm on the way back. Bella had a hard time with me leaving today."
"Oh, yeah. She does have like separation anxiety, doesn't she?"
"Yeah, a little bit. She cried for like 3 minutes then got distracted with toys. It's gotten better, though. About a month ago she cried for up to 20 minutes."
"Well that's good. I'll see you in a couple minutes, though, so bye."
"Bye, love you."
"Love you too." I say before hanging up.
I put my phone in the back pocket of my jeans and grab my shoes before walking back downstairs.
Alex is falling asleep, but Alessia is still wide awake.
"I'm back, babies." I say, sitting back in my spot on the couch.
I just mess around on my phone until Justin returns.
10:57 am
"Babe?" Justin says as he opens the door.
"In here, handsome."
"Oh, I brought you a present." Justin walks in with my coffee and a smoothie, for him.
"Yay, I love you!" I kiss Justin's cheek and reach for my cup, but he pulls away.
"I'm gonna need more than that little baby kiss if you want this." He smirks.
I roll my eyes and give him a kiss on the lips.
"Can I have it now, please?"
"Of course. I love you."
"Love you too. Thanks."
I take several sips of the drink before grabbing the diaper bag and putting the cup in the side pocket.
"I'm ready, are you ready?" I ask Justin.
He nods, putting his smoothie in the other side pocket of the bag and grabbing both car seats.
"Lead the way, wife."
I take the keys from Justin's pocket and lead him outside to the car.
He puts both of the car seats in the car and I put the diaper bag in the front, where my feet go.
"Big strong man." I tell Justin, giggling.
"Of course, that's me." Justin gets in the drivers seat and starts the car.
"So, babe, when do you think Toulouse should come to live with us? I want him to get used to being around the babies, but I also don't want them to be too young."
"I think a month is good. Toulouse was great with Aviella and Bella. Obviously Avi was a little older, but I think he was good with Bella when she was a newborn."
"He is a pretty amazing dog." I smile.
"You would say that."
"Yes, I would. But I think a month is pretty good. I can't wait to have my baby there all day every day."
"Yeah, someone to keep you company since you decided it would be such a genius idea to quit your job."
"I didn't like that job, and you know it. It's not like it's gonna affect anything, anyways. I'll be at home with the twins."
"Yeah, but I don't want them to develop separation anxiety like Bella. They need to start daycare at a younger age than she did. And you know Oscar is still trying to get you to do some modeling."
"Yeah, you're right. And yes, I know. I just don't think I'm model material." I shrug, looking out the window.
"You're the biggest fucking liar, Ari. Everybody loved when you were in the maternity shoots pregnant with Bella, then the twins. Nobody understands why you don't want to do it. You're amazing at it, and you know that." Justin turns to look at me and I sigh.
"Okay, okay. You're right again. I'll try it."
"Excellent. I'll tell Oscar when I go in later today. And you're taking the twins to your moms house for the girls dentist appointment tomorrow, right?"
"Yes. She'll probably keep them all day with Frankie. And I guess after we take Aviella back to school and Bella to daycare I'll go in with you and we can talk to Oscar about whatever needs to be done."
"Great. I'm so proud of you. This is gonna be fun. I've been waiting for you to agree to model with me for so damn long, Ariana. I know everybody is gonna be so excited when we tell them."
Justin can not contain the smile on his face, and that makes me smile. I did not have any idea how happy this was gonna make him.
"I love you, babe. So much." I stroke Justin's cheek.
