When I pulled back into the driveway I noticed that Zane's just getting back home too.I head towards the house I see Zane's coming up to me as he jogs to catch up."Hey baby I thought that you didn't need to go anywhere today?"(I was going to go to see my father but seen that I had a target when I got into my car,so I went and done that first so that's where I just came from bad boy.So I'm going to shower then head over to my father's place.So would you like to join me when I go in a little while baby?)"Okay then babydoll just be careful as you know we are expecting OUR first and only child together!" I give him a kiss then go straight to our bedroom and to the shower.When I get out of the shower I see Zane's standing in the doorway just watching me so I smile as I am happy with him and how he's so over protective over the kids,our baby and me."Avery?"(Yeah?)"I'll ride with you when you go to see your father.Oh Buttercup pack a bag for the weekend! DON'T say NO just do what I had said PLEASE BABY?"(Okay love but what about the children?) "Well Aleck and Nick will watch our girls I mean your girls baby."(Okay baby and Yes it's okay to say 'OURS'! Since we're together and they do call you dad,daddy,dad Zane,or even daddy Zane so YES baby you can say that they're OURS!Just curious but where are we going?)"Well that is a suprise Buttercup!So hurry up so we can get going baby."I went into the closet to get dressed and to pack when I see that Zane's got both of our bags packed already so I turned around!"Baby I thought you said to pack our bags?"(Yes I did baby BUT I need you to make sure that I've packed the right stuff for you! Also I need you to make sure that it's what you like in it!)"Oh.Well okay then just a little curious on why all this secrecy about this trip that you've planned out for us?"I said as I put on a pair of blue skinny jeans and a white tank top,as we both now match almost and I'll finish once I pack as he waits for me to finish up before answering me."Don't worry babydoll,I love you and I would not put you in any kind of danger! I know that you're going to love the suprise that I can promise you. Now go look and make sure I got everything for you and hurry up baby so we can head out!"I smile at him as I put on Jakob's flannel shirt over my tank top and button it up so far before I tie the bottom part.As I go to pick up the two bags Zane stops me "NO! No you don't pick them up baby I'll put them on to our bed!"Once they're on the bed I reach to open one up and he stops me again,"No beautimous the other bag is your's this one is mine." he said as he walks up beside me.I unzip and open up the bag then I see warm clothes, lingerie and then I see it as it's another surprise for me!What I find is small velvet ring box so I pick it up with shaky hands and I open it. I see a beautiful small turquoise heart with diamonds on both sides of the heart.I feel my heart racing as I love this ring and I remember that I had showed Jakob this ring one day! I then look up at Zane as I've got tears of joy and I see him smiling at me."I know that you don't like big bulky diamonds or stones like that on rings babydoll! I know that you love your rings with anything as long as they're real and not bulky!"I just stand there with tears as I shake my head yes as I agree with what he said as it's true. "Baby I love you and YES I DO want to marry you ONE DAY WHEN YOU ARE ready! So when you let me know that you're ready I'll ask you then.Yes Jakob helped me pick that out for you,he said that was the color you loved and how you had wanted that ring. So YES that is an engagement ring BUT I'm giving it to you as a promise ring for now Av.Until you want me to propose to you!" he said as he wiped my tears away and put the ring on my right ring finger but I stopped him,"No baby! Now take it off and put it on my left hand where it belongs Bad Boy! I love you Zane Bateman!"I said to him and he did as I had told him. After he got my promise ring on I gave him a kiss.Then I got our bathroom essentials and placed them into the smaller bag that I use only for our bathroom essentials for us then I connected it to his bag.I stand there staring at my promise ring as Zane totes our bags down stairs.We go into each of the kids bedrooms to tell them goodbye and to behave while we're gone.As we go to walk out of Angel's room she stops me.(Angelika likes to go by Angel)"Mom?"(Yeah?)"You going to come back home right?"(Yeah Angel I will be back home and don't worry about me getting hurt.That's why Zane's going to with me,along with 2 other bodygaurds as they will be there with us as well.)"Okay mom, I need to tell you something about Dad and Zane but I don't want you upset and I'mnot sure if I should tell you."(It's okay Angelika you can tell me.)" Well I know that one day while you was in the hospital, I over heard daddy and dad Zane talking but I don't think they knew I was right there as I was in the hallway and they was in the office.Anyway I heard daddy tell Zane this 'I know that you love her well really it's more like you're in love with my wife and love our kids too.IF anything EVER happens to me I need you to promise me that you'll NEVER leave her or our children!Also that you'll always protect..!" (Angel..No I want to tell her! Please Angelika let me be the one to tell her please honey?!) Zane had cut her off before she could even finish telling me,so I looked at him as I'm confused."What?"(Protect them forever, as I don't care that you love you my wife! So Yes I want you to give her that engagement ring but do it as a promise ring for now.Also IF I die I want you to give her time to heal then I want you to marry her when she's ready and don't worry YOU'LL know when its time to propose to her. IF I don't die then I will let you have her as a wife too.Take care of her and our children treat them and raise them as if they're your own and I know I don't have to tell you that as you're already doing that! Please Zane as I ONLY trust you with her and NOBODY ELSE with her or our children.Help her get REVENGE FOR EVERYTHING! Thank you hun I mean it take care of Avery My Sweetheaert and our children.Also I gave you two a suprise! That was all he said but Angel you can call me whatever you want!So whatever makes you feel comfortable sweety!) He held my hand as Angel walked up to us and hugged Zane."Zane you can be my new dad! I am sure that everyone else will be happy as well.I can't wait for when you marry mom and then you will OFFICIALLY BE APART OF THE FAMILY AS IT'LL BE WHOLE AGAIN, I mean YOU are already PART of the family.I know that Sam was my biological dad but he betrayed us and ran away unlike you dad.A REAL man would've taken the issuses head on just like you've done!" As I lean down to hug Angel I kiss her on her head goodbye, then we're all suprised when we hear"YES WE WANT YOU MOM TO MARRY ZANE! AS HE'S OUR DAD NOW AND HE GAVE YOU A BABY AND US A NEW BABY SIBLING!"said Nick,Rose and Aleck at the same time which scared the hell out of us.I looked up at Zane and squeezed his hand as we walk towards the bedroom door, I stop and look at all 4 of our children,"Listen to your brother's and girl's don't disobey them. NO torturing each other and NO fighting at all and I mean it!Also boy's protect your sister's and call us if you need anything. Now we'll be back late Sunday night unless we decide to come back earlier!"We all hugged one last time just before Zane carried out our bags to put into the trunk, he then opened up my car door for me! Just as we got to the end of our driveway he leaned over and gave me a passionate kiss and then he pulled out of our driveway. I held his hand while he drove and I laid my head on his shoulder.
