Cato P.O.V
Ki's birthday is today. I brought her a diamond ring. It is nestled in a satin blue box in my tux pocket right now. We'll be dining at the best restaurant in Forks. I do hope she likes it. I walk to the bathroom and call sShep in. he comes running in and leaps into the tub. He always loved baths. He can come into the restaurant since I explained to the manager that he was our only living family member left. He needs a bath anyway….
Ki's P.O.V
I feel so weird. I can't sleep. My eating habits are haywire. There is even a swelling in my stomach. I hope nothing is wrong. Carlisle and his family were invited to my birthday dinner that Cato is throwing tonight. Maybe he'll know. For now, though, I need to find something to wear…..
Cato's P.O.V.
'You are still coming right?" "Of course, Cato…." I tightened my hand on my phone at the uneasiness in my old friend's tones. 'Carlisle, you're not telling me something. Spit it out." "Oh, alright. Cato, Alice had one of her visions. This one was about Ki. Alice saw her holding an infant." I felt as if the air was sucked right out from under me. "Carlisle, what would that mean?" "I don't know. I'll see if Edward can find out during dinner." "Ok. See you then."
I snapped my phone shut and smoothed out my new tux one more time. Shep barked once from my lap and whipped his tail back and forth against the back of the chair. As I looked up, I became breathless. Ki looked so beautiful. Her dress was as if she wore an ice blue waterfall. She glanced up at me and her face mirrored my own. Shep wagged his tail and ran to nuzzle her bare legs. "You ready to go?" "Of course," she said with a soft smile.

Cato looks very dashing in his suit. The restaurant he chose, is so beautiful. Oh! Here are Carlisle and his family now. My, don't they look fabulous? Carlisle and Esme wearing emerald green, Rosalie and Emmett in Black, Alice and Jasper in gold, and finally Edward in a dashing red suit. He produced a red scarf and tied it around Shep's neck, so they could match. I nudged Alice. "Hey Alli, Where's Matt?" Her liquid gold eyes sparkled as she said, "Cato asked him to go get something special that he apparently forgot." "Oh." "Yeah." she softly laughed.

Surely Matt can't be late. It doesn't take long to pick up a ring, which I already ordered. At least Ki seems to be having fun. Edward is inclining his head towards the door with his trademark lopsided smirk. We all look and there is our loving Matt. He leaned over Ki and after a kiss on the head, stole one of her shrimp. We all laughed as she swatted him playfully.
I'll never understand how he does it. As he was sitting down, he ordered what he wanted and slipped the ring in my shirt pocket. Dinner speed by quickly after that. Once dessert rolled around, I decided to make my move. Good thing I've been rehearsing it in the shower.
Ki's P.O.V.
OMG! He's really going to do it. Alice and Rosalie gave little shrieks of excitement and Esme laid her head on Carlisle's shoulder. The whole restaurant grew quiet as Cato said, " Ki, I love you. I'll always love you. Will you be my bride?" Alice whispered in my ear. "You know that you love him just as much." I nodded in agreement to her and when Cato started looking nervous, I leaned over and said, "YES, Yes, Yes, yes!" Everybody in the room exploded with clapping and as Cato started to put the ring on my finger, Edward, Matt, Emmett, and Jasper sang "Go on and kiss the girl" from the Little Mermaid. I haven't decided to tell Cato that I'm pregnant. According to Alice, he'll find out soon enough because I'm starting to show. It's a good thing I have such amazing friends. Alice, Rosalie, and Esme are taking over my whole wedding. All I have to do is be their dress up doll. Oh, Fun!
