Too Lost in You

Chapter Thirty-Two: The Rehearsal Dinner

Cristiano smiled as he held Caleb close to him, there was a week left until the wedding and the footballer couldn't have been happier; today was the rehearsal dinner and he couldn't take his eyes off Liliana.

The brunette was wearing beige bodycon dress in lace paired with nude high heels and metal frame clutch bag; she was talking with her father, who had tears in his eyes at the thought of the wedding.

“I can’t believe how big he has gotten,” Kaka said catching Cristiano’s attention while he admired Caleb, the three week old had been to one of the afternoon matches and no one could believe how beautiful the little boy was.

Nico had sent the couple the picture that he had snapped of the family and had begged them to allow him to include it in the magazine were the other pictures would be placed; it had taken a little convincing before Liliana and Cristiano had consented but the media presence in their lives had lessened since.

“He’s like his papa,” Cristiano said as Liliana re-joined him and smiled up at him, the brunette still had no real idea about her wedding but with working on her second book and Caleb, she hadn’t put much thought into it.

“So only a week left until the wedding, anyone getting cold feet?” Karim teased making Cristiano glare at him, the Frenchman knew that Liliana’s friends were all now talking about him getting cold feet and leaving her at the alter; he didn't need his friends doing it as well.

“No we aren’t getting cold feet, we’ve been together for six years,” Liliana said as she lifted Caleb out of his father’s arms and held him close as Cristiano wrapped his arms around her.

Karim rolled his eyes as he looked at the couple; they were the perfect description of soul mates and it was hard to be around them sometimes with how perfect that seemed to be for one another.

“So what are you two doing for the honeymoon?” Iker asked turning the attention away from Karim’s stupid question, Cristiano had warned the Frenchman about his jokes; he didn't need Liliana getting the wrong idea so close to the wedding.

“We are spending a week in St. Lucia, Roberto’s watching Caleb while we are gone,” Cristiano said making Liliana shift nervously; the couple had agreed that they need some time for themselves but neither of them were truly ready to leave their son behind for a week.

“It’s lovely this time of year… you’ll both enjoy it,” Sara said making Liliana nod as Caleb started to get slightly fussy, Cristiano looked at his son while Liliana glanced at him; the little boy wasn’t used to being up this late but luckily the rehearsal dinner was coming to an end.

“You think he’ll be okay?” Liliana asked as she slipped out of her heels, Cristiano looked at her as she returned to their bedroom after settling Caleb down for the night.

He knew that she was talking about leaving Caleb while they went off on their honeymoon, in the three weeks since his birth; Liliana had never truly been away from their son.

“He’ll be fine amor… he’ll be with your Pai,” Cristiano said as he wrapped his arms around her waist, his lips skimming down her neck; his hands unzipping the beige bodycon dress in lace making Liliana gasp as she felt his hand trail down her back.

“I just feel guilty about leaving him behind,” Liliana said as she turned to face Cristiano, who sighed as he kissed her lips; he missed being able to be intimate with her but until she’d had her stitches removed after the wedding then it was still a no go for the two of them.

The footballer moved away from Liliana and settled onto their bed as she changed out of her dress and into her blue dots satin shorts and cami top. Liliana looked at her fiancé, who was watching her intently; she knew things had been a little strained between them and with Caleb around.

“I love you,” Liliana said as she brushed some hair away from her face as she climbed onto Cristiano’s lap, the footballer watched her curiously as she straddled his hips.

Liliana kissed him softly as she wrapped her arms around his neck, she didn't want their relationship to collapse just because they’d had a baby; she wanted this to work out between them.

Cristiano held Liliana as they kissed, his hands finding a way into the brunette’s hair as she pushed him back on the bed so that they could continue making out lying down.

The footballer pulled his lips from Liliana’s and rolled over so she was pinned under him, his lips skimmed down her neck making the brunette moan softly.

“I love you too,” Cristiano said as his lips returned to Liliana’s, he knew that they couldn't have sex but right now just being able to touch each other like this was enough for him.

Liliana wrapped her arms around Cristiano’s neck, the sudden stress that seemed to have built between them falling away as they kissed.

Cristiano’s hands moved under the satin top that she was wearing; he cupped her hips as he moaned softly as she wrapped her legs around his waist and held him close to her.

Liliana licked her lips as she rested her head against Cristiano’s, his lips moved down her neck licking and sucking as they went; the brunette held back a laugh at the thought of them making out like teenagers for.

“I can’t wait to call you mine nena… the wedding can’t come soon enough,” Cristiano panted as he rocked his hips against hers, making Liliana moan softly at the delightful friction that it caused.

Cristiano chuckled into the side of Liliana’s neck, he knew what would happen if they continued like this; it was something that had happened a lot when they were first dating, though he never thought he’d be doing this again.

“Just one more week,” Liliana said making Cristiano nod his head as he moaned softly at the feeling that started to grow in the pit of his stomach; his fiancée pulled his lips back to hers to stifle any noise that they made so that they didn't wake Caleb, who was in the next room.

The two of them couldn't wait to become man and wife, it seemed weird that in the seven years that they had been together that this was where they were ending up.

They adored their son and couldn't wait to have more, Cristiano craved the idea of having children with Liliana and he loved the idea of having at least one brother and sister for Caleb.
