And now... There's us

Chapter 13

Author's note: Okay, so his is the dance I imagine Sofie and Trey to perform. You need to understand how talented Sofie really is.

Nicholas P.O.V

"Your daddy will be there the whole time, and we're going to have so much fun. I'm going to be singing for a lot of people, and you are going to be right there with me. daddy is going too some work there, but we can also have a lot of fun while we're there, okay? Woah, that was a very strong kick. Are you excited to go to South Africa? I think you are." I wake up to the sound of my angel speaking to our daughter, while rubbing her very round belly.

Without opening my eyes, I pull her to my chest, and she let's out a giggle. "Nick?"

"Hmm?"

"I'm hungry." She says, and I smile softly.

"Okay then, let's get you two fed, and then get ready for the recital.

Today is our flight to South Africa, but first we have to attend Sofie's dance performance, which she insisted we attend. Emma squeals, and tries to sprint off, but I hold her waist, preventing her from doing so.

"Don't run." I say, rubbing my eyes, and getting out of bed. She pouts, and in slow motion, begins to walk out the room. Sighing, I scoop her up, and carry her myself.

"How can you lift me so easily when I weigh a ton?" She asks with disbelief. I stop walking and look at her.

"Angel, you might not think so, but you're light as a feather." I kiss her forehead, and watch as she smiles with satisfaction.

"Right, next up, we have Sofia Folliero, with her partner, Trey Miller." Sofie walks on stage with her partner. We're standing, so that Emma has a better view, even though I wanted her to take a seat and rest.

"Ms Folliero, Mr Miller. The song you have chosen, 'Say you won't let go' by James Arthur, is quite a romantic song. I have to ask, does this song refer to your relationship?" One of the judges asks, and Sofie chuckles. Her partner speaks.

"Actually no. My boyfriend is in the audience right now." The judges nod in understanding.

"This dance is actually dedicated to my sister and her husband Nick." Sofie adds, while Trey nods. My head snaps up, and so does Emma's. "They're expecting a baby in just over a month." The audience claps, and Sofie makes eye contact with us.

"How come she's never dedicated a dance to me?" Luca pouts, and I place a hand on his shoulder.

"When you get married, I'll tell Sofie to dedicate a song to you." He rolls his eyes.

I met you in the dark, you lit me up
You made me feel as though I was enough

The dance began, and I smile at the lyrics. They were damn true.

I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I know I needed you
But I never showed
But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old

The guy, Trey, lifts Sofie into the air, and spins her around.

I'll take the kids to school
Wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night

I see Emma rubbing her belly like she always does when our daughter kicks.

I'm so in love with you
And I hope you know
Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold
We've come so far, my dear
Look how we've grown
And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
