(Edited)

I always thought Aiden would be a rough kisser but at this moment he was proving me wrong. His lips were soft and moist. As if licks them a lot. Heck I would lick his lips. Aiden grabs the back of my neck urging me forward. I grad his shoulders. With his other hand he fist me hair holding me closer it isn't until in the back of my head I hear the distant sound of gurgling do I break away. I touch my now swollen lips.

Wow. I've never been kiss and for it to be my first time it was awesome. And that was what scared me. So I did what any other people scared would do.

I ran.

I jump out the car and up the stairs to my mom's apartment. I knock insistently. After a few minutes does she open the door. I gasp.

In front of me wasn't by mother but at the same time she was. She wore a knee length black dress. I was sleeveless and had a v-neck. Her blonde hair was styled in a loose bun. Some strands on hair beginning rebels and escaping the bun.

"Mom, you look beautiful." I leap into her arms. I hold a tight grip on her. I have never seen her dress up. My dad wouldn't allow it. He would say what's the point if you never even get out the house. Which was true, but it was because my dad didn't let her step a foot out the door. Me, on the other hand, he seems not to care what I did or happen to be. Unnoticed a few tears had slip.

"Shhh, now my sweet child. Thank you." My mom cradles me against her. Maybe now we can all start a new life together. Happy and peaceful. I step away from my mom and wipe my tears.

"Ok come on or we are going to be late." She locks the door and we exit the building. I slip my arm through my mom's resting my head on her shoulder. I let her go as we near the car, letting her sit in the back while I sit in the front. I avoid eye contact with Aiden, looking mostly at my mom in the back seat with Amelia.

"Hello, Aiden. Thank you for inviting me." My mom says.

"Your welcome, Marie." Aiden smiles at the review mirror to my mom. So they are on first name base. I look out the window. The car falling into a comfortable silence, only classical music and Amelia making noise.

I stiffen when I feel a warm large hand fall on top of mine. Holding on to it. I resist to look at him, but I don't remove my hand. He moves my hand on to his thigh, his thumb stoking my knuckles. I resist the urge to snatch my hand out if his. I know my mom is probably seeing us and I don't want her to see how I want to yank my hand out.

After a few mintues I let myself enjoy the feeling of Aiden's warm hand on mine. I take notice the area we're in. Mansions fill the neighborhood, a park being illuminated by lamp posts. From the looks of it look beautiful. I stare in awe at all the house. I look to see that he finally stop in front of a house. Big white columns make the house look strong and big. Aiden punches some code to allow the gates to open. I seem to have lost my breath when we near the house. A pond is in the front lawn. Plants surrounding it. It appears that Aiden's mom loves plants.

Aiden gets off the car and walk to my side. He open the door and stick out a hand to help me get off. I accept his hand and hop off. Spinning in circles to get a view of everything. Aiden then goes to open the door for my mom. I walk to them intending to get Amelia but Aiden takes her instead. I grab her baby bag and we all walk to the front door. My mom to the side of me fidgeting in a nervous manner. I hold her hand because I too am nervous. I take a deep breath of air trying to calm down. As if knowing I'm nervous, Aiden warps a firm arm around my waist. The large wooden door is open and a smiling Mrs. Knight opens the door.

"Aiden, Lisa, hello. Amelia. And you must be Lisa's mom. Hi, I'm Jane." Mrs. Knight greets us. Then introducing herself to my mom. She surprise us by leaning in and hugging my mom. My mom awkwardly pats her back.

Uncomfortable by being touch. She is only use to me hugging her. Mrs. Knight steps back and open the door wide for us to open it. She taps Amelia nose making her giggle. Aiden walks into the living room while me and my mom stay behind and look starstruck at the gorgeous chandelier hanging in the middle of the foyer. Mrs. Knight drags me and my mom into the living room.

A young women in a navy blue dress comes and takes our jackets. I at first recline but Aiden soon comes cones from behind me taking my jacket off and handing it to the women. I smile at her. I look for Amelia finding her in my mom's arms waving her fists in the air. I walk to my mom taking Amelia from her.

"Okay, we can start dinner once my husband get here is that alright?" We all nod. I sit in the love seat, Aiden joining me. Warping an arm around me. I look up at Mrs. Knight a huge smile on her face. I give her a small smile in return.

"I'm sorry I didn't catch your name earlier." Mrs. Knights says to my mom.

"Marie." My mom says quietly.

"Marie." Mrs. Knight test her name.

"So when are y'all planning on having the wedding. A date set? I have a lot to do. Like the cake, flowers, bridesmaid, groomsmen, guest, oh and the dress. Yes, we need to go dress shopping. Oh, Aiden were is Lisa's rin-"

"Mom. We haven't discussed anything." Aiden cuts his mom off.

"Oh okay. When y'all are ready. Ww girls can get started." Mrs. Knights suggests.

At that moment Mr. Knight decides to step into the living room.

"Good evening." Mr. Knight announces.

"Evening." We all say in unison.

Mr. Knight walk to his wife leaning in to give her a kiss. I blush and look away from them. So does my mom. I peek from under my lashes and come to face with grey eyes. He's starring at me with so much intensity I have to glace away but before I can Aiden grabs my chin with his thumb and index finger. He gives me a small peck on my lips leaving a tingling sensation.

We hear the sound on a throat clearing. Making me jump away from Aiden. I avoid eye contact with everyone and just stare at Amelia. She smiles at me as if knowing what I'm feeling at the moment and I envy her, wishing I knew what I was feeling.

"Lisa. Ms. Grey. Its good to see you again."

"It's good to see you too Mr. Knight." My mom and I say in unison.

He chuckles.

Mrs. Knight look confuses between both of us. "You guys know each other?"

"Yes. I was the one who hired Lisa here to work with Aiden. I would have never thought though that he would get married to Lisa. But what a pleasant surprise." Mr. Knight cuts in before either Aiden or I could answer. "However, I didn't know about the little girl in Lisa's arms."

"Oh, it that how y'all met?" Mrs. Knight asks.

We both nod.

"But we can discuss about Amelia another time." Aiden voice leave no other option.

"Okay I guess we can now eat."

Mrs. Knight stands up and walks us to the dinning room. My mom walk awkwardly, looking as of not really fitting in.

That makes to of us momma.

I walk up to her to take her hand. Aiden has taken Amelia from my arms again.

Thinking Amelia was going to be seated in my lap while we ate, I was quite surprise when I notice a high chair situated on the end if the table.

Mr. Knight sits on the front on the table, Mrs. Knight to his left, while Aiden to his right. The high chair is between Aiden and me. My mom beside me.

Young women and men in navy blue dress and suit, just like the women from earlier, come and place plates of food in front of us.

They even hand me food for Amelia. I smile kindly at them.

They fill a glass of wine in front of us. Mrs. Knight lifts the glass.

"To Aiden and Lisa."

I blush deep red. While everyone else repeats.

"To Aiden and Lisa."

Deep down I feel the remorse of lying but with her kind smile I feel as if I just did something great. So I swallow my guilt and smile lovingly at my future mother-in-law.
