We spent the rest of our time exploring Venice, and just having fun. We bought loads of gifts for everyone for when we got home, from all the quirky little shops around here.

Xavier told me all about his parents Giovanni and Rosa, and how much they'd loved it living here. He'd grown up here in Italy, in Milan, with Xander and Melinda, but had moved to the US at seventeen after his parents deaths. Mel and Xander had stayed here in Italy, until Xavier got his business up and running all by himself.

I was in total awe of him, when he told me how hard he'd worked to get where he was now. It had taken him less than two years to become a millionaire, and five years to become a billionaire. Now at 26, he was making billions, and hasn't let the money get to his head either. I was so proud of the man I'd married.

When the day came to return back home I didn't want to leave, but needed to see my baby boy. Mel had kept her promise, and we'd  Skyped every evening, and I saw how Angelo was doing.

On the Jet on the way home I felt sick, and figured it must have been something I ate while in Italy.

We arrived back in the US at 9a.m, and we were both exhausted. Not having to worry over our luggage because Xavier had thought ahead, and had someone come collect it for us instead, so we drove straight home.

The house was quiet when we arrived, and Mel had left us a note informing us she'd taken Angelo to feed the ducks at a local pond with Andre, so we could get some sleep. Amanda was at work, so no worries from her.

We collapsed into bed, and fell into a deep exhausted sleep.

Later that same day I woke up feeling a lot better than I had. Checking the clock I was surprised to see it was only 2 in the afternoon. Xavier was still sleeping, and looked so peaceful.
Hearing noises downstairs, I figured Mel and Angelo were back.

Getting up and taking a shower, I got cleaned then got out and dressed into some black leggings and a sports bra, tying my hair into a bun. I padded barefoot downstairs to see where my baby boy was.

Everyone was in the kitchen when I found them, Angelo was eating some banana and strawberry chunks happily in his high chair. Mel and Carlos were sat talking to Xander of all people, and i instantly scowled.

Ignoring them I headed over to Angelo, and kissed him on his forehead.

"Hey baby, did you miss Momma?" I ask him.

He happily babbles loudly and smiles, showing me the strawberry he just chewed and his two bottom teeth cheekily.

"I missed you too." I tell him laughing.

Carlos hugs me, and I return it happily.

"How was Italy? You have a great tan by the way, did you enjoy it?" He asks me.

"Yeah, I had a really good time. And I always tan easily." 

Mel gets up and jumps on me, I catch her just barely, and laugh at her.

"Did you bring me a gift?" Is the first thing she asks me.

Then it's a constant charade of questions for the next hour or so, none stop.

Carlos brings me a tuna salad sub sandwich, and some fruit to eat as she chatters away.

Xander stays quiet, and doesn't say anything to me at all. I glare hatefully at him every time he catches my eye.

Xavier comes down around 4.30p.m and looks well rested. He comes straight to me, and kisses me hungrily.

"I missed you when I woke up. Why didn't you wake me?" He asks, as he kisses his way down my neck, much to my embarrassment.

"Er, Xavier? We have company." I tell him breathlessly.

He tenses up, before turning to Mel and Carlos, who were studiously ignoring us both. Angelo was still happily playing away with his food, and hadn't noticed. Xander however was watching us closely, and I didn't like it one bit.

"Xander? Why are you here?" Xavier asks surprised and angry.

"I have to stay with you while out on bail, I don't have much choice." He sulkily replies, making me want to smash his annoying face in.

"Okay. When's your hearing?" Xavier asks him annoyed too.

Carlos hands him two subs and a beer, and I raise my eyebrows at Carlos as if to say "where's my beer".

Carlos raises his eyebrows too, and crosses his arms.

"You can't drink Aria." He tells me firmly. I don't hear Xander's answer, and they both stop talking and stare at me and Carlos.

Gaping at him I wonder why the Hêll not.

"You've just got back off your honeymoon, Aria. Did either of you use protection while over there?" He asks seriously, sounding just like my Father.

I choke on the apple slice I'd been eating, and Xavier coughs while drinking his beer.

We both look at each other with wide eyes, and I blush so brightly I fear I may pass out.

"Oh my God Carlos, please don't bring things like our sêx life up at the table." I mumble to him mortified.

Mel and Xavier both laugh loudly, and look at me weirdly.

"What?" I ask annoyed.

"Do you think you could be? You know, pregnant again?" Mel asks me gently.

I shrug in response, not sure.

Angelo has finished eating his fruit, and I clean him up and put him in his door bouncer that he's only just got. He happily bounces up and down, babbling loudly to us all.

I smile watching him, and can't help but feel thankful that I have him.

Turning back to the table, I see Mel's already left for her date she'd told me about earlier, that she had with Brad; her boyfriend of three month's.

Xavier and Xander are both sat beside each other, and it's still freaky seeing them together.

Going to the fridge I grab a can of Coke and some celery sticks, and sit back at the table to eat them.

"Do you think Carlos could be right, that you're pregnant again?" Xavier asks me cautiously. "Do you feel different?"

"I don't know, maybe." I shrug. "Do you even want another baby yet?" I ask him quickly.

He nods and grins, and I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

"I'd love a little girl next, but another boy would be just as good." Xavier tells me smiling softly. "Just imagine, a little Arianna running around here after Angelo." He muses happily.

"Okay, hold your horses, I don't know yet and won't for another few weeks. Don't get your hopes up." I tell him honestly.

He nods and grins anyway.

Xander has stayed quiet through our conversation, and i wonder why he's still sat there.

We all leave the kitchen and head into the lounge, I grab a sleepy Angelo and hold him in my arms on the sofa, letting him sleep and just holding him close, taking in his natural baby smell that I've missed so much.

Xander and Xavier watch a film, while i sit and read a book on my phone, annoyed he's still here. Finding a new one I liked, that sounded interesting. I bought Fifty Shade's Of Grey, and got comfortable.

Later that evening after I'd put Angelo in the bath and to bed, I relaxed in the bath with Xavier. Luckily we had a huge tub in our en suite, and we could both fit in easily and still have room to move around.

He held me in his arms and we listened to his ipod playing, just winding down, and spending quality time together.

We clean and explore each other while in there, and getting out became a chore as my legs were still like jelly from the orgâsm I'd just had.

Once out and dried off, I grab one of Xavier's shirts, and button it up to sleep in. Xavier puts on some boxers, and i set the baby monitor beside the bed, to listen out for Angelo. We get into bed and i snuggle up into his side.

"Night baby." I tell him sleepily.

"Night, mio amore." He mumbles kissing my neck.

I fall asleep with him wrapped around me like my own personal blanket, feeling happy.
