Lily's POV.
I blink my eyes open when I feel drops of water and look up to see the dark sky then Ryan comes into my view. I slowly sit up by his support and drink some water he brings for me.
"Looks like my proposal really made you swoon just like Vance said." Ryan says as he sits beside me.
"Is there any possibility that I was dreaming all of that?" I ask.
"Nope." Ryan says with a small smile.
"Okayyyy." I say as I try to understand what happened earlier.
"You should know this first before you answer that this was not spur of the moment decision. Guess girls aren't the only ones who weave dreams." Ryan says and I stop breathing for a second.
Lily's POV.We took his car to the restaurant where we had our first date. Our regular host congratulates me when he sees the ring on my hand. When he goes to offer complimentary champagne, Ryan denies it. So, the host promises us to give dessert to congratulate us.I look at Ryan who is looking at my ring finger like he still can't believe that I said yes and we are engaged. I smile at him and shake my head when he looks up and he smiles nervously."Believe it. We are together." I say as I kiss his hand."Not until we are at the altar." Ryan says.I giggle and say, "Well that could be arranged if we call Richard and inform him about it.""Well that is one thing I am dreading t
Lily's POV.Ryan and I take his car and leave the building. I duck in the seat when I see my brother entering the garage. We were just saved by a second."When are you going to tell Lucas?" Ryan asks."Maybe the weekend before your parents' anniversary." I say."Why then?" He asks."Because if I tell him now, I fear he might spill the beans in front of Richard." I say."Okay." Ryan says."We will do one thing. We will invite my whole family to have dinner with us on that weekend and I will tell him. Great idea?" I ask."Whatever you say, dear." Ryan says as he kisses my hand.
Lily's POV.We go to the hospital afterwards and I literally jump in excitement when Dr. Miller tells me that we are having a boy. Ryan grinned at my silly reaction and kissed the side of my head."Well everything looks good but you have to keep up with your diet and have to add a few more things and remove some of them." Dr. Miller says and writes down the name of a nutritionist we should meet.She also tells me to be careful and not overdo anything other. I nod along on her every word but when she suggests I should eat chocolates daily, I literally want to kiss her.Ryan and I just exited her cabin with a smile on our faces. But my smile soon fades away when I see Richard and Heather in the distance. They have yet to notice us.
Lily's POV.Next day, Ryan gets the news that he has to go to San Francisco for an emergency on Monday. I really get pissed but try to understand his responsibilities."I promise, I will finish my work before Friday and we will go to the island together." Ryan says as he gives me a light peck on lips as I pass him his clothes."It is not about that. I just feel alone when you are not here. Even though Lady and Teddy are great company, they miss you too and that makes me miss you even more." I say as I sit beside his bag on the bed."I know dear. But if I complete this work, I would be free for a whole week and I promise that week would belong all to you." Ryan says."Oh! How I hate it when you are logical and totally co
Lily's POV.I look at Freya as she has lunch sitting beside Ryan and I don't know, rather to glare at her or Ryan. But I don't glare at him as his appetite has seemed to vanish just like mine. I hear the ping of my phone and look at it to see Ryan's message.'Please eat. If not for me then for our little bun.''Okay. But only for you. Please, you eat something too then meet me in the library. I really want to know how she knows about the baby.' I text back.I have some chicken noodle soup which Ryan had ordered for the chef to make for me earlier and see some relief in his eyes. He starts to eat too.When Freya whispered those words in my ears I was shocked but didn't show it on my face.
Lily's POV."Exactly what it looks like." Ryan says as I go to stand near him and he wraps his arm around my shoulders."But dear you should have told us about it before revealing it to the media like that." Heather says."Mom, I was-" Ryan goes to say but Richard interrupts him."You answer to me first, Ryan. You got Lily pregnant, is that why proposed to her?" Richard says with anger burning in his eyes."No. He proposed to me because he loves me just like I do. He didn't even know that I was pregnant when he proposed to me." I say in Ryan's defence, "Look, why don't we all sit down and discuss this calmly. Please.""Lily is right, Richard. We should sit down and talk about t
Lily's POV.The next week was going smoothly. Ryan and I got settled in our routine around each other.We would wake up together and have breakfast then he drops me at my workplace then goes for his company. Then he will make sure that I had my lunch by asking Lia to make my favourite lunch everyday and his guard delivers it for me.He would either pick me up from my work or send someone to pick me up. Then we will go back home together and have dinner. We would then take Lady and Teddy out for a walk then go to sleep after our sweet love making.I love every minute I spend with Ryan. He takes care of me very much and also assures me of his love on every chance he gets. I love when he showers me with sudden sweet kisses. I love it when he hugs me tightly. I love it when he caresses my b
Lily's POV.The last two months have been blissful. During weekdays, we work during the day and then at night we go out sometimes to have fun. It is like we are dating all over again but this time not secretly.I enjoyed every minute of it even though some tabloids tried to spoil it by saying that I am not taking care of myself much. It is like I have some disease that should not be spread, so I should not go to work or go on dates.But some good tabloids oppose their thinking. They really appreciate the fact that not only am I working but having fun which I should have, to keep myself happy. Because if I am happy so is my baby.Those news literally get on my nerves some days especially when they try to invade my privacy. That is why Ryan specifically h
Lily's POV.Two Years Later….."Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday dear, Adam. Happy Birthday to you." I sing as I bring a small cake for my sulking son in his room on the morning of his birthday."Dada?" He asks as he looks behind me."He will be here soon honey." I say and sit on the bed."No." Adam says to the cake as I bring it closer to him."Baby bun, Daddy called me to let me know that he would be here with a big surprise for you." I say."Suprise?" He says as he fumbles."Yes. A big surprise."
Lily's POV.I get pampered for whole morning to noon and is given anything I ask for. I eat fruits and light salad and soup as I have to also fit in my bridal dress. I lost some of my pregnancy weight and would soon lose the rest of it.I got ready in my dress which belonged to my mother and the designer had it modified a bit according to modern style. I cried when I first saw her dress which Lucas has taken care of for me. It was really an emotional moment for both of us.The wedding dress is white crepe material with full sleeve and off shoulder neckline. The back and end of the sleeves has lace work. It is buttoned from the back and has a mermaid tail hem. The hairdresser keeps my hair open and curls the end. She puts a beaded tiara and attached the chest level blusher veil over it. And I am ready to
Lily's POV.Two month have passed by and Adam looks so big now. He isn't my red little crying bun anymore. Now he is chubby and so much more playful.First few days were difficult for me as a new mother as I often start crying about little things like when he doesn't burp after feeding or when he wakes many times at night or more than anything when he cries.Viola being there really assured me and also Heather. Viola told me that I just have baby blues and all this thing happens. But if I was upset my boy would sense it and start crying.After that I handled myself. Ryan was a big help too. At night he would wake up to feed the milk I pumped out for the baby. He gave most of his project to Richard saying he needs paternity leave too as he didn't w
Lily's POV.After Christmas, we went back to New York to celebrate New Year with friends and I arranged a small party for our friends and family. It was the first time I hosted any party and it was fun too as nobody could complain about anything for two reasons. First because I was pregnant and second because I was perfect.When the clock struck 12, Ryan and I kissed like every other couple in the room. We celebrated till late. For years, I had no one to be happy with so much other than my family but now that Ryan is here my whole world has started revolving around him.Teddy and Lady have grown up to be so big now. It has become quite impossible to hold them in my arms anymore. But they have become mature enough to understand and take care of me. Through training and exercise, they have become quite sma
Lily's POV.It is November and it is starting to get very cold. And ever since little bun has started kicking he has left every shyness and is always busy playing football especially at night.Ryan thought that my mood would get better after this but little did he know that, that was all just a start. My mood which used to turn every minute, is now taking seconds to change.Today is 15th of November and also Kathy's baby day. We arranged her baby shower last month and I gifted her matching clothes to the one my son would wear. She was on cloud nine thinking our boys would have each other.We even promised to plan our next baby together which I now think is weird but not that much as Kathy and I have become very close to each other in the past thre
