The nurse took Zack and me back to a private room and said...
"Tyler isn't doing well. We are going to try putting something in his IV and if that doesn't work.. Then there's nothing else we can do. I'm sorry." Said the nurse leaving the room
I cried and cried.
"Zack, it's all my fault.. If I hadn't gotten pregnant.." I bawled into Zack's shoulder
"Maya it's not your fault. Tyler is strong and he will be okay." Zack said holding me I stopped crying and went back to my little boys room and he said to me, "Mommy."
"What?" I asked
"Can we go home?"
"When you get better we will go home."
Hayley was bringing the kids here and should be here in about 2 minutes. Then the machines started beeping like crazy. Doctors and nurses rushed in. Tyler's heart sopped.. Zack and I were kicked out if the room. Then Hayley came over and Zack picked Caden up.
"Can you take Caden? I have to run Aliah to her friends house and Emma to dance?" Hayley said rushing out
"Where's Tyler?" Asked Caden
Zack then rushed into Tyler's room and I followed. Zack put Caden next to Tyler and Caden grabbed his twin brothers hand. Then Tyler's heart started beating again.
All the medical staff were shocked. Tyler wasn't contagious so they weren't worried. The doctors saw his fever had gone down to 101.3 which was great. That night Caden spent the night with Tyler. The next day Tyler's temp was normal and we took him home. Getting ice cream on the way. That night we put the kids to bed early and Hayley left. I paid her $1,000 as all she did for us. Zack and I stayed up and watched a movie in our home theatre.
"Maya why were you so jealous when I was dating Kallie, and when Olivia and when Agnes held me hand?" Zack asked me
"Because.. You can get any girl by your looks, the way you talk to them, your personality, and your touch. It's so easy to fall for." I said
"How do you know?" He asked me
"What do you think made me fall in love with you? Why do you think I finally said yes to you in high school..."
"You fell for me because of that?" He asked
"Yes, and I do everyday. I was so scared that Kallie would fall for that and you would marry her, same with Olivia. Agnes I was scared she would too. Or you would realize you like her. Zack it's so easy to do... Every time I look at you, I fall in love with you all over again. I don't want anyone else to." I said
"You never have to worry about that. I love you Maya and I always will. I've never told you or anyone this. Prom night when we had sex.. You were my first. When I was about 15 I met this girl and she was 17. She wasn't ed to have sex with me and I was totally like hell yeah. We got a room at the Tipton and we kissed for a while then I took off my shirt, and then she said she didn't want to use a condom. I agreed and we kissed. Then i realized how wrong it was and I left. After that you know how close I came with Kallie and super close I came with Olivia. You are my one and only. Before I almost did it with any of them I alway thought about it. With you there was no thinking. I knew it felt right and it still does. Everything with you feels right. I love you so much Maya." Zack said
"I love you too! I loved the way we re-breed our vows. Thank you Zachary." I said kissing him
"Shut up." He said kissing me back
"So I need to ask you. Why don't you and your family get along?"
"When
"Zack.." I said as he walked away
He turned around and said, "I need to be alone for a while." Zack went down to the pool and sat in the hot tub in his swim trunks. I went and changed into a bikini and sat with Zack.
"I love you." I said and he turned to me and kissed me.
I kissed him back. Then I pulled away. "You know for all we've been through I'm surprised we didn't end up with another baby." Zack said
"I'm on birth control so we won't." I said
"Good, for now." He said as he left and went and jumped in the pool. I followed him and then I jumped in. Zack and I flirted and then I got out of the pool and grabbed a towel and dried off. Zack came over and said, "I love you." And he started making out with me.
He was about to undo my top. When I ran upstairs and changed I to my pajamas. I then went into Tyler's room and checked on him. He was fine and had no fever. I check the other three kids and then I went back down to my room went to bed. The next day I woke up and got ready for work. I was wearing a black skirt and a white shirt that showed cleavage maybe a little too much but I was just meeting Katie.
Zack came over and kissed me. I pulled away and said, "I have to go to work." All the kids went back to their rooms and packed a little bag with stuff to do. I walked over to Zack and kissed him, we made out and then heard a kid coming. I left to go to work and then in the middle if the day I got a call from Zack.
"Hello is this Maya?" Zack asked
"I don't know, who is this?" I said back
"This is a very sexy guy calling from your house wanting you home." Zack said
"Okay." I said hanging up
I left and drove home as Katie watched the kids. I walked in and there were rose pedals leading to our bed room. In it there was a whole bunch of white candles lit and there was Zack holding roses that he gave to me. I accepted them and said, "Zack someone called and said he's a sexy guy calling from our house." I said
"Well you better go and kiss that guy." He said as I kissed Zack
We made out and had sex. Then Zack and I both went back to work. It was actually quite romantic. I was so in love with him. Since it was the middle October, on the way back to MK wedding I thought about what we were doing for Halloween.
Once I arrived back at work I went and Aliah came up to me.
"So I was thinking.. After this do you want to go pick out your Halloween costume?" I asked my oldest child
"I want to be Elsa!" Aliah said
"We'll have to go look in an hour." I said
Just then Katie walked by me and said, "Oh good you're back. I just got a call... Remember how you went to Paris? Well now someone in Italy is requesting to meet you and see some of your dresses." Katie said
"Oh my god! That's incredible." I said as she handed me a piece of paper with the email.
"Wow, this has gone super far. But he wants me there this Monday." I said shocked as it was now Friday
"And you'll be there for a week on him." She said
"We you're coming with me." I said as she got the biggest smile on my face
"Let's go pick out our best dresses to bring." Katie said and we went to the dress room
The twins were in my office taking a nap. Aliah and Emma followed us into the expensive dress room.
"Mommy it's pretty!" Said Emma touching a dress with her hands all orange from chips.
"EMMA!" I screamed
She started crying and I said, "Shit this dress is $700,00."
"I will get it ready to go get cleaned." Katie announced grabbing the dress and leaving
I walked over to Emma and we walked towards the bathroom. I brought her in there and washed her hands. Then I carried her back to the dresses and said, "I'm sorry, but you know not to touch the dresses."
"I sorry mommy." Emma said not crying
"I know you are." I replied kissing my daughter
Katie and I picked the best dresses and packed them in a MK wedding bag. Then she was calling clients. I left with my four kids and the wedding dresses. On the way home we stopped at a costume store and got all four kids costumes.
Aliah was Elsa, Emma was Anna, and the twins were batman and superman.
"Zack on Monday I will be leaving with Katie to go to Italy for something with a huge dress offer.. Like Paris..I will be gone for a week." I said
"And you're sure I can't come." He said
"The kids have school, you have work, Halloween and tick or treating, all that." I said as my phone rang
"Hello?" I said
"Hey Maya, what are you doing this week?" Hayley asked
"I will be in Italy for work." I said
"Oh well never mind then. Does Zack need help?"she asked
"Actually if you want to come over Sunday and stay till next Sunday that would rock." I said
"I'll be there. See you soon." She said hanging up
"Well Hayley will be here all week to take car of the kids." I said
"Maya are you sure you have to go?" Zack asked
"I'm sure baby." I said kissing him
After dinner Aliah read in her room. She didn't have school today as it was a teacher workshop day.
Emma played dolls upstairs in the playroom. I had Caden and Tyler with me on the couch.
"Mommy, I tried." Said Tyler
"Should I read you two a story?" I asked them
Tyler went and grabbed a book on the kitchen table. Tyler sat on my lap while Caden dat next to me as I ready the story about superheroes. After reading Tyler was ready to go to bed. He went and brushed his teeth, and I got his pajamas on with a pull up. I said goodnight to him and so did Zack. Then we left him to sleep.
Zack went down to be with Emma while I got Caden to bed.
"I gonna batman for howoween." Caden said
"I know and you'll get to have your super cool powers." I said
Later on the girls went to bed and that left me cleaning the house up, and starting to pack.
I packed a few fancy outfits and the basic stuff. Zack interrupted me.
"Can you take a break and come downstairs with me?" He asked
"I would love a break." I said grabbing his hand
He lead me down to the basement when he handed me a bracelet. It was a charm bracket. It had our wedding day on it, everyone of the kids' birthstones and the day they were born. It had a few other odds and ends. Then I kissed Zack before I noticed.
"Thank you Zack, it's beautiful." I said
"Not as beautiful as you." He said as we walked back up to my room.
Today was the day I was leaving for Italy. It was seven am and Zack kissed me. We made out and pretty soon we were having sex. A half an hour later I showered and got all dressed up. I bright my bag and the MK bag out to My car. Hayley would be here in 20 minutes.
I got all the kids up and dressed, then Hayley got here and hugged me.
"I so wish I was going!" She said
"So you can have the guest bedroom. If he has any girls over you have permission to kill him." I said to my sister
"And if she has anyone over you can kill her." I said to Zack
"Will do babe." Zack said
Katie showed up and Hayley went and took my keys to go get in my car. I said goodbye to my family and then Emma came crying to me.
"Mommy take me with!" She cried
"I wish I could sweetie." I picked her up and held my crying baby.
Katie was waiting with Hayley in my car. I put Emma down and then huge Zack.
"Let me know how things go. I love you so much." I said kissing Zack
"I love you too!" He said as I walked out the door.
I got in my car and about 20 minutes later we were there.
I hugged my sister and then Katie and I went in and got on our plane.
Once out plane landed I called Zack.
"Hey babe it's just me saying I made it to Italy and it's 4am here. I love you. Call me back please. We need to talk." I said hanging up as I just left him a message.
Katie and I went to our hotel and we got king suites right next to each other. Mine had three bedrooms, 65' TV, couch, kitchen, a huge bathroom. I didn't need all this.
Katie and I each fell asleep. Then the next day we went to meet the guy buying the dresses.
We sat in his office and the conversation started.
"I am Mr. Richards. Would one of you be willing to model the dresses?" He asked
"No." We both said at the same time
He looked at the dresses and said, "50 million a year, for 2,000 dresses?" Hs asked
It was about $25,000 per dress.
We agreed and then signed on it. Katie and I had another week and a half here. I loved Katie like a sister but I wanted my family here.
I called Zack again and no answer. I started to get worried, so I called Hayley. Nothing.
Katie and I spent the day touring Italy.
We went back to our hotel and I opened my door to see a bouquet of roses there.
The note read.
'For the one who makes millions. Thank you my sweet one.
- Louis Richard's'
I freaked out. I called Zack. He didn't answer.
"Please call me back. I'm worried." I said
About a half an hour later my cell phone rang.
It was Louis Richards.
"Hello?" I said
"Did you see the gift I got you?" He asked
"Yeah, but I'm married and have four kids." I said
"Your husband is a lucky guy. He knows true beauty. Please meet for dinner in the lobby. A dress is being sent up to you." Louis said
"I will be down there at 5:40pm," I said hanging up
Sure enough 30 minutes later a dress arrived. I looked at it. Then I put on for laughs.
It was white an barley covered my ass. It was strapless and showed cleavage to about where my ribs started the back was open. I took a picture of me in the dress and then took it off. I put on my own dress and then went down to the lobby. Louis greeted me and said, "Where's the dress?"
"In my room. I'm not wearing that. My husband is the only one who would see me in that dress." I replied
"Sweetheart, you can trust me." He said putting cupping his hand to my face.
"No, I can't. You better leave me the fuck alone. If not our contract is over." I said
Walking towards the elevator. I got in with a family and he did too.
"I want you to know, I'm ready when you are." He said leaving the hotel
Katie and I started packing. We were leaving the hotel when I saw Louis handing me a bag.
I looked inside it. It contained a ton of boxes. I handed it back to him and got into the car with Katie. Eventually we made it to the airport.
We were trying to get the next flight home.
"The next flight we have is tomorrow night at 10pm. There's 10 seats left." The lady said
"We'll take them." I said paying
We spent the night at the airport and Zack texted me.
'I'm sorry I didn't call you. I miss you so much. I had to get a new phone. I accidentally dropped mine in the pool. Hayley is a huge help. The kids miss you like crazy but we are about to go trick or treating. I hope you are enjoying Italy. I miss you so much baby. I love you. P.S. Please don't fall for any Italian guys.'
I didn't respond and then that night we got on the plane to come home.
We arrived home and we took a taxi to MK wedding. We got into the system and made sure Louis couldn't track MK wedding. Then we designed a dress and cleaned.
Then we took the cab to my house. Katie left right away to go see her family. I wheeled my bag to the front door and opened it.
"Mommy!" Yelled Aliah
She ran towards me and I picked her up. Hayley came over next with Tyler. Then Emma and Caden came over. I hugged all my kids but Caden. I picked him up and ten hugged Hayley. Then I put Caden down and ran to Zack's arms.
He was about to let go when I said, "Please don't let me go."
He didn't. Then the kids went back to playing and Hayley, Zack and I went to the kitchen to talk.
"So what happened?" Hayley asked
"Louis Richards send me 24 long stem roses, he wanted me to wear a dress to dinner with him that I wouldn't even wear for Zack. He flirted with me and I left." I said
"That son of a bitch!" Hayley said and Zack and I looked at her
"Let me see the dress." Said Zack
"Well I should probably get going. Bye Maya, Zack." Hayley said
"Did Zack pay you?" I asked Hayley
"In more than one way." Zack joked
"Shut up that's my sister." I said
"Yeah he gave me the check." Hayley said hugging the kids who had just came up.
Hayley hugged Zack quick and then she hugged me.
"As my maid of honor, would you let me come back next weekend with my bridesmaids and mom to MK wedding to buy a dress?"
"First of all you're not buying a dress. I'm giving you a dress. And second of course you can come next weekend." I told my baby sister
After Hayley left I unpacked and found the dress in my bag with a note.
"Please keep this on behalf of my staff. -LR
I put the dress on and yelled Zack's name.
He walked in and shut the door. Then his jaw dropped to the floor,
"This is the dress, he snuck it in my bag somehow. " I said handing him the note
"You didn't wear this for him did you?" He asked staring
"Of course I did. I really wanted a 55 year old man to see me half naked." I said sarcastically
"You know I'm so lucky to have you." Zack said
"You make that sound like you want something." I said
"I always do." He said kissing me
