Eight years later:

Dove's P.O.V:

I brushed my hair and placed a jeweled hairpin on them to support my bangs.

The blue dress looked wonderful on me, Thank God I wasn't showing.

"Lily! Get ready will you...."I trailed off at the sight of my three years old daughter standing at the door of my room.

"I'm ready, Mom!"She said.

"You're just like your father."I mused.

"Who's like who's father?"Edwin who had just came out from the dressing room, looking incredibly handsome, demanded.

"Lily, She's just like you."He smiled and kissed me.

"I think I 'Forgetted' my doll in the room."We heard Lily in the background.

I pulled away and called "It's "Forgot"!"

Edwin let out a laugh.

"What?"I demanded.

"She always forgets to say "Forgot".It's funny to see you call after her every time, "I raised my eyebrows.

"Whatever, It's my job to teach her the right things,"

"Of course," He said, "Won't it be a hard job to teach two kids at the same time?"

I looked at him in the eye.

"It will be, But I have seven months to get ready for it, Seven months before I pop our second born."

"Secondborn," He echoed.

"Yes, I hope it's a boy so that we can stop at two. Right?"

A mischievous look appeared in his eyes.

"Who says we're gonna stop? I want more kids. Like uh...."He pretended to think "What about five daughters and five sons? That would be fair, Right?"

My eyes got as wide as an egg.

On seeing my horrified expressions he held his hands in surrender.

"Kidding. Just kidding, What about eight? You know, four daught......"Before he could continue, I caught him by his arm and bit the lobe of his right ear.

Because that was what turned him on.

"No...Dove, God no! We just got ready, We can't have sex right now."

So I had to leave him.

"Well, I wasn't planning on that, hon. We have a wedding to attend,"

"Yeah, Mark and Rose. Who knew Mark was so damn serious."

"I did."I bared my teeth at him.

"Haha...You did, Come on. Lily will be waiting,"

As we stepped out of our bedroom, We found our beloved daughter waiting for us.

"Come on, Alan would be waiting for me."

Alan, The firstborn of Kevin and Lindsay.

"Yeah, yeah he would."Edwin mused.

God, He's such a father.

And he totally thinks about reaching their teenage Lily and Alan would definitely hook up, okay not hook up. But they would get together.

It would be so nice, Still, he's a dad and dad's are just like he's been acting.

Mark and Rose got married.

I had always known that they would end up together.

Because I had seen the love light in their eyes; The same that I had seen in Edwin's eyes, For me.

That night we arrived home totally exhausted.

Lily was refusing to go to bed so I had to sing her to sleep. Really my daughter is a real fan of my voice.

As soon as she dozed off, I got up and crept back to my room, Where I had to change.

Edwin was already in bed. As soon as he saw me he smiled.

"What?"I demanded.

He patted the bed, slightly.

I shrugged.

"I have to change, "I stated, Dumbly.

"Let me help you, "He got up from the bed with a jump and reached for me.

"What a gentleman for me."

He smirked. And kept on looking at me for the next ten seconds, And I had to snap him back to senses.

"My dress?"I pointed at myself.

"Oh yeah."He reached for the back of my dress and unzipped it swiftly.

"Seems like you're in a hurry."I let out a laugh.

He slipped the dress off and led me to the bed.

"Don't make a noise, Lily will wake up, "I whispered.

"I won't" He whispered back and kissed me.

"You don't have to do this, I'm already two months pregnant,"

"No..You looked beautiful today."

"Don't I look beautiful every day?"I asked.

"You do, YES..you do, "He dug his hands in my hair and started trailing sweet kisses from my neck to my chest.

I wish this moment could freeze.

 Eight years ago after all that drama, That night Miguel was arrested and sent to jail for life. Martin, His son and Mr. Thompson declared peace among the two families.

We all graduated and made our way to college.

Edwin proposed to me on our graduation day four years ago. And without wasting much time we married.

Following our example, Kevin and Lindsay married too.

Mr. and Mrs. Thompson stayed in the neighborhood. Edwin and I bought a beautiful house.

Edwin didn't change a bit in these last four years. I feel so lucky to have a husband like him.

  My life turned out to be perfect, Even though I'm not a princess but he makes me feel like one.

I really never thought that my life would be so beautiful.

But I guess all the credits go to my unexpected feelings.

My feelings for him.

My life turned out to be an actual bed of roses just because I fell in love with the nerd next door.
