The girls all went out shopping for Penelope's wedding that will take place on Saturday it's Wednesday today which means she only got two days left to organize everything. I'm happy for Nathan and her they both deserve happiness."Are you ready?" Apollo asked walking in with two car seats."I'm ready," I say getting off the bed as I help him put the girls in the car seat."The girls said they will bring your dress home to fit it," Apollo said as we walk outside and I saw a bunch of cars outside."What's this?" I asked as I look around."I don't want to take any chances," he said opening the door for us.We strapped the car seats before I got in followed by Apollo."Do you think they will attack now?" I asked nervously that something would happen."I don't know like I said I'm not taking any chances," Apollo said as the car drive off.The ride home was quiet and I could tell Apollo is nervous he kept looking around an
Samantha's povThe bed dips underneath me and a familiar hand goes on my waist. I feel Apollo's stubble against my neck as he gently kisses me.Still half asleep I pulled him to me, "Baby it's time to wake up the wedding is today," He whispered in my ear."I know just a little longer the girls kept us up all night," I groaned trying to sleep again."No, come on baby we have to get the girls ready as well," Apollo says pulling the cover from me."Ugh, why does she have to get married today?"Apollo laughs as I stand up to get ready."I will take a shower quickly while you get the girls ready?" Apollo said walking into the bathroom.I walk to the girl's room to get their bath ready then I take out their little red and gold dresses with matching shoes and hairbands.I wash Alison first while Athena is still sleeping."Hey baby girl," I cooed as I undress her."Today is aunt Penelope's wedding so we have to get ready."I quickly wash her and then get her dressed just in time because as so

Perseus shouts running up the stairs and that's when Hector starts running."We are here check your father and brother," Aphrodite shouts as soon as Perseus finds us.Perseus bends down feeling for a pulse at Aris first then he went to Apollo, "I'm sorry," he cries as I hear Aphrodite screams. No, no it can't be they can't be gone! I thought as more tears run down my cheeks.Perseus untied us then he went to the rest of the guys getting them out.I immediately kneeled at Apollo, "Please wake up!" I yelled as I try to bring him back to me to us!"Mom, you and Samantha should wait outside," he says as the two of us hold on to our lifeless husbands crying for them to wake up."I can't leave him," I hear myself saying caressing Apollo's cheeks."Please let us do our jobs, Sam, go take the twins with you.

Samantha's povIt's been a rough few weeks Christmas is over and we are still here in Italy at one of Aphrodite and Aris's vacation homes.The whole gang came along and even though we are all together it doesn't feel the same without Apollo. I miss him every day it's been two weeks since their death and let me tell you the day we held their funeral now that part was the hardest.Two days before the funeral..."Sam?" I hear Phoebe calling at the door.It's been hard for me to get up and go on with life. I need to arrange my husband's funeral but somehow it feels as if he is still alive you know that feeling you get that things don't seem real?"Come in," I say after a few minutes and the door opens revealing Phoebe, Penelope, and Aphrodite, "Hi Sam," Penelope says giving a sad smile."Hi," I look away and watch the twins."We are all finished with the last arrangements," Aphrodite says sitting down."Do we have to invite all these mafia bosses?" I asked not wanting them there."Unfortu
Samantha's povI woke up feeling like a train hit me. I groaned sitting up as I look at everyone around me.This can't be happening! I'm seeing ghosts now? "Oh my God! I need help I'm starting to see the dead!" I whispered and put my head in my hands."No, you're not seeing the dead," I hear Apollo's voice but I don't lift my head too afraid."And now I'm starting to hear them talk!" I said still holding my head not wanting to look up."Sam honey, you are not getting mad or anything Apollo and Aris are alive," Aphrodite says as I feel her hand on my back."How? We saw them getting shot right in front of us," I say lifting my head and I saw Apollo standing next to me."We had a plan that day," Apollo begins as I look at him in disbelief."What fucking plan?""The plan we made was before the girls were even born," Apollo said trying to touch me but I move away."Samantha baby just listen please," Apollo begged.I look at everyone else, "You all knew about this so-called plan?" I asked
Samantha's povIt's been a few months since we found out that Apollo and Aris faked their deaths and everything has settled down. Apollo told me they used fake blood to make it look more realistic and when I asked him about the bullets he said the man who gave Hector the gun swop the real bullets with blanks which explains a lot."Are you ready for daddy to tuck you in?" Apollo says wrapping his arms around my waist as I watched our little girls "Don't ever say that again," I turn around and frown at him."Why?""Because that phrase just kills the whole love-making mood," I started showing him with my finger, "You know from this to all the way here," I said making my finger point down.He chuckles and kisses my head, "I'm sorry I won't ever say that again."We walked to our bedroom and I got under the covers, "Tomorrow is going to be a long day," I sight as I watch Apollo getting into his boxers."Only a few more days then the wedding will be over," he smiled as he lay down next to m

They are both dressed in white dresses with a black hairbands.All of us talked as we sit around the table just enjoying each other's company.
