Amanda's POV
"It's as if we're walking around with Beyoncé ." I said smirking before sipping on my cup of tea.
" I know right, everyone is STARING ." De'arra said loud enough for the group of men sitting opposite us to hear, causing them to shift their gaze from us.
" Maybe I shouldn't have worn this dress . " Keisha said sounding a bit insecure while tugging at her dress trying to cover up her exposed thigh.
" Girl bye ! You look scrumptious in that dress. " De'arra said playfully giving Keisha the bedroom eyes and she giggled before waving her off.
" D is right ! Your body looks insane in that dress , got me feeling some typa way ." I said rubbing my hands together, pulling my bottom lip in between my teeth.
" Shut up !" she said covering her now red cheeks and me and D burst out laughing at her actions.
" I love hanging out with you two lunatics . " Keisha said with a pout while batting her eyelashes.
" Me too ! I love this, especially the food part . We should do this more often. " I said while stuffing myself.
" I couldn't agree more but I uhmm... have something to tell you guys . " De'arra said before putting her utensils down on her plate.
" What is it ? You found yourself a new hot man ? " Keisha asked before dramatically sipping on her cocktail and De'arra nervously laughed , Oh boy ! I already know what she's about to say.
" He's not really new ." De'arra said while fidgeting with her fingers.
" Wait wh-- BITCH YOU TOOK RAYMOND BACK ?" Keisha scrunched her face while looking at De'arra and I look between the two confused.
" Uhmm... Who's Rachel ? " I asked purposely mispronouncing the man's name hoping it'd enlighten the mood but I guess not .
" De'arra's ex . " Keisha said and judging by her tone , she didn't like him.
" No Keisha ! I didn't take him back , I uhmm... I took Ken back . " she mumbled the last part but I heard her .
" Not Kenock ! and why would you do that De'arra ? " Keisha asked while looking at De'arra as if she has 7 heads .
" He-Well we talked and he apologized . " De'arra said avoiding eye contact with both me and Keisha.
" Yea and so ? " Keisha said while rolling her neck .
" So we're getting back together ." my eyes widen, taken back by her response but mostly by her harsh tone.
" De'arra did you perhaps fall and hit your head really hard because you sound stupid as hell righ-- " I cut Keisha off before she hurts De'arra's feelings even more .
" Keisha ! Stop . Now De'arra , are you sure about this ? Did you think about it at least ? " I asked while looking at her concerned.

" Yes I did and I know I may sound like an idiot b--" she was cut off my Keisha mumbling.
" You do sound like one ." I nudged Keisha and she sighed before rolling her eyes .
" I'm sorry if I disappointed you guys , I just... I love him ! And I don't know how I still love him after all the pain he has caused me but I honestly love him and I don't see myself with anybody but him . I believe in our love ." she said her eyes getting watery .
" Yep ! You definitely hit your head . " Keisha mumbled while poking the remainder of her steak aggressively.
" D if you feel like getting back with Ken is the best thing to do and it makes you happy then we fully support you. " I said reaching my hand out to hold hers and she smiled at me before placing her hand in mine.
" Amanda no ! There's no 'we' , speak for yourself. " Keisha said putting a pieace of steak into her mouth.
" Keisha please . " I said while playfully glaring at her and she sighed before leaning forward on the table .
" I'm not going to lie and say I support you because I DON'T ! but for your sake, I hope he means every word he sai-- matter of fact, for his sake I hope he's being truthful because the next time he makes you cry, I'll hurt him . I'll hurt him real bad ." Keisha said with a harsh tone and De'arra smiled before pulling her into a hug.
" Girl if you don't get off me. . . " Keisha said playfully pushing her away and that only caused De'arra to squeeze her even more and I giggled at the two. I heard my phone vibrate in my purse and I took it out and saw it was a text from Luciano, slightly chuckling at the nickname I gave him which he hated.
Come over to the hospital, NOW.
I frowned at the text before replying 'on my way ' and tossed my phone into my purse.
" I hate to be a bummer but I have to go, it's an emergency ." I said before taking out cash from my purse and setting it on the table.
" An emergency ? Is it baby daddy ?" Keisha asked while taking the cash and stuffing it back into my purse and mumbled 'I got it '.
" Maybe? I don't know . " I said before standing up and hugging them both and leaving the restaurant but not before telling them I loved them.
I caught a cab and told the driver I was heading to the hospital. I bounced my leg nervously all the way to the hospital , something about that text gave me anxiety.

"Thank you, have a good night ." I said giving the driver my payment and exiting the car. I entered the hospital and rushed to Leonardo's room.
" Hey Luke." I said out of breath when I finally arrived outside Leonardo's room .
" Miss Amanda, they're waiting for you inside. " he said opening the door for me. They? Please tell me the entire Reigns family isn't here.
"Thanks Luke." I said softly before entering the room. Everyone had their backs facing me so didn't notice me entering the room. They all were circling Leonardo's bed , the sight alone made my heart race . Lord please tell me he isn't dead .
" Luciano ." I called out softly and everyone turned and looked at me. Luciano smiled at me before moving away from the position he was standing in revealing a slightly smiling Leonardo. My hand instantly went to my mouth and my eyes watered, my bag dropping to the floor. thank you God, thank you.
" Are you going to stand there or you're going to come over and give me a proper greeting ?" Leonardo said slightly raising his one brow , his voice still sounded weak . His beard has grown a bit longer and so did his hair.
" Y-You're up ?" I said stuttering and this time I couldn't hold back the tears that were now falling down my cheeks. Everyone stood on one side of the room while looking at me with amusement.
" Yes ! The hospital tried calling you and mom but they couldn't reach you two so they called me ." Luciano said with a wide grin.
" I'm sorry I was busy ." I said still looking at Leonardo with wide eyes.
" Don't leave my son hanging Amanda." Mr Reigns said and I slowly walked towards his bed .
" Hi . " I said waving nervously and everyone laughed including Leonardo .
" No hug, nothing ? " he asked and I playfully rolled my eyes before hugging him but not too tight considering his injuries.
" You look beautiful ." he whispered into my ear and I smiled before pulling apart .
" Luciano told me we're having a boy ." he said pointing at my bump and I nervously chuckled before nodding,does he not remember what I said before he fell into his coma.
" I hate to break this beautiful scene but Amanda we-I have something I wanted to ask you . " Mrs Reigns said approaching the bed.
" What is it ? " I asked while looking at her with concern. "
" Uhmm can you please look after my son for me until he fully recover ? " she asked while looking at me with pleading eyes.
" I-I don't really have much to do so I guess I could. " I said shrugging.
" In Iceland . " Leonardo said and my gaze left his mother and landed on him.
" Pardon ? " I said while looking at him.
" Will you come with me to Iceland, we'll come back after I have fully recovered. " he said as if taking off to Iceland was easy peasy .
" What ? No ! Why can't you just recover here ? Why do you have to go so far ? Does Iceland have some kind of magical healing pond that you need to jump into in order to be healed ? " I asked and Rita and Luciano snickered before nudging each other .
" What the hell Amanda ? " Luciano asked while holding his stomach laughing but I only straight fcaed him and he covered his laugh with a cough.
" If you're going all the way to Iceland then I can't come with you, I'm so--" Mia cut me off
" One of our enemies is threatening to kill us and yes! That includes both you and my nephew . Leonardo doesn't need to go to Iceland to heal but he needs to go away because he is no state to fight right n-- " Leonardo cut her off this time.
"Which I totally disagree with because I think I'm perfectly fine, I'm pretty sure I can pull a trigger ." he said rolling his eyes.
" No you're not !" Mrs Reigns said slightly rolling her eyes at him.
" As I was saying , Leonardo needs to go away and so do you so why not kill both stones with one bir-- " this time Luciano cut off Mia.
" It's actually 'kill two birds with one stone.' Mia " Luciano said with amusement and I snickered .
" Can you stop cutting me off and just listen ! One minut-- " I cut her off
" It's fine Mia, I think I get it now. I'll go ." I said shrugging and Mia put her hands up in surrender before sitting down on the couch.
" Thank you ! We already have everything sorted out for you two in Iceland, you'll go tomorrow. " Mrs Reigns said excitedly.
" TOMMOROW ?! " I unintentionally yelled and I cleared my throat before mumbling sorry .
"Yes tomorrow, the sooner the safer."
I don't have much to say unless for I love you guys so much, you guys have no idea . I literally think about you guys every day, you guys motivate me, encourage me but mostly you guys make me happy, the happiest I have ever been and I just wanted to say that I am grateful for each and everyone of you . ❤️
