"Welcome, sir", Edmund said as he held the door open for Zach.

"Thank you, where\'s my wife?" Zach straighten his jacket while walking into the house.

"Asleep in the sunroom."

He took quick steps as he unbuttoned his suit jacket. He weaved his way through the mansion on his way to the West wing. He arrived at a small building that extended at the back of the West wing.

It was made of glass roof and walls. It was decorated with simple furniture, a fireplace that was in the middle of the room that was currently not lit, and some potted plants occupying some corners both on the roof and floors of the room. In the midst of it all, lay Amy on one long sofa with her head resting on a pillow.

She was sleeping on her side with one hand supporting her head under the pillow and the other on top of her belly, some hair had fallen on her face, her pink lips were slightly parted, and a soft snore resounded from her. The sun shone on her beautiful face. Zach quietly walked over and got down on one knee.

With a dotting gaze, he tucked away the hairs from her face and caressed her cheek. She let out a sigh and leaned into the touch. He looked around and there was no sign of her laptop. She must have come over to relax. He looked back at her to find her brows furrowed. Her head shook from left to right like she was in a struggle. She was having a nightmare.

"Amy? Amy? Wake up. Wake up. It\'s just a dream. Wake up", he gently shook her, trying not to alarm her.

"My baby!" She woke with a start, breathing heavily.

Then she saw Zach\'s worried face and she covered her face with her hands. He leaned forward and hugged her where she lay.

"It\'s okay", he said quietly. She sniffled and let him hold her. "It\'s okay. It was just a dream."

After a while, she calmed down and pulled back to look at him. He helped her sit up before he settled right beside her and pulled her in his arms. He kissed the top of her head when she leaned into his chest.

​ "You okay?"

"Yeah. I\'m fine", she answered quietly.

"What were you dreaming about?" He could not help his curiosity especially when he heard her say \'my baby\'. That was not the first time he had heard that. The last time that happened was when they ended up reuniting at the hospital.

"I.... It\'s.... I was alone in the delivery room and Gwen took the baby away. It\'s not the first time I\'ve had this dream. It\'s- it\'s-"

"It\'s not going to happen", he assured her, trying to keep her worries at ease. "I won\'t let that happen. You will be surrounded only by the people you love and most importantly, I\'ll be there. I won\'t leave your side. No one will take our baby away."

"Promise?" She frowned in worry.

"You have my word."

"I trust you."

He kissed the top of her head again and they fell into comfortable silence. They could hear the sound of the birds chirping from this side of the house. And the view was spectacular with a carpet of green grass stretching out from the building, a footpath made of small white rocks, and trees stood in alternate spots.

"Did Henry not come in today?" He asked.

"He did. He left early saying he had something to do", she answered.

"Got any work done?"

"A little bit. Babe?" She called out to which he hummed in response. "I\'m hungry."

"I\'ll check with the kitchen", he said while fishing out his phone with one hand. "Shall we eat here?"

"Yeah. It\'s a romantic little spot", she said with a smile.

Unfortunately, that statement broke his heart. If not for the situation, he would love to dine with her at fine places. But that would mean giving her the job of masking their tracks. He didn\'t want to do that. That\'s why he had proposed in their room though he would have loved it to be elsewhere.

"I promise, I\'ll take you out on proper dates once this is over."

She sat up and looked up at him, giving him her beautiful smile as she cupped his cheeks. "And I look forward to it. But right now, I\'m not complaining because every moment with you feels like a date."

He chuckled with a shake of his head and pecked her lips before dialing the house line. With the message passed on, their food was soon brought to the sunroom where the couple devoured it.

Later that night, Victoria was seen standing in front of the mirror checking for flaws in her outfit. She couldn\'t call either of her sons to seek their opinion when it was clear they did not approve of Noah. She also felt some type of way as she was going out with someone in Xavier\'s age group. It just felt...... Odd?

With a deep breath and one last look at her red bodycon dress, she exited the house. A car was parked right outside the gate and she recognized the Volkswagen to be Noah\'s. He got out of the drivers side and walked to her in a suit. His steps slowed down and he felt his throat go dry seeing her.

"You look..... You look beautiful", he said, stopping right in front of her.

"Thank you", she said with a smile. "And you cleaned up nicely."

"Th-Thanks....Wow", he breathed out a smile. He still could not believe that such a beautiful woman was giving him her time. It was really happening. Victoria chuckled when she saw him like that.

"It\'s only the first night", she said.

"I know. More reason I\'m nervous. How about you? Are you ready?" He asked curiously. She seemed more calm and collected.

"As I\'ll ever be", she answered with a smile.

If not tonight, then when else? Whatever would come their way, she was sure it would, she was ready for it all. She knew what she was getting into more than anyone else did. Nervousness coarses through her body. She sincerely hoped this would work out as she dreamed it to.
