It had been a full three months since Betty got the promotion as she sat in her office pouring over new clothing designs. It had been twenty minutes before her assistant Maria came in.

"Ms. Suarez, here are more of those new designs you asked for." Maria let out.

"Thank you Maria, and please call me Betty,"

"Ok, oh and your boyfriend called confirming dinner at 6:00," Maria announced.

"Yes, can you go give these other designs to Daniel and have Amanda call me on line one?"

"Ok, do you need me to do anything else?" Maria asked as she looked over at her boss. Maria had a different impression of Betty when she was first hired to be her assistant. Betty came across as not knowing a lot about fashion. But after spending a month working with her, she realized Betty worked her ass off.

"No, that's all for now!" Betty said as she smiled at Maria.

Betty picked up the phone and dialed Gio's cell phone.

Gio picked up his vibrating cell phone and smiled.

"Hey, beautiful!"

"Hey, babe, I was just calling to hear your voice," Betty let out softly as she sunk down in her chair.

"Did you get my message about tonight?" Gio asked.

"I did and I will be home at 6:00 exactly," Betty said. She had moved in with Gio a month ago and she loved going to bed with him and waking up next to him.

"Good, I have a surprise for you."

"Oohh, I like surprises. Oh, Gio, I got to go. I love you and I will see you at home!" Betty let out as she noticed line one was lighting up.

"Ok, I love you too!" Gio said as he hung up after she did.

Betty pressed line one on the phone to talk to Amanda.

"Hey, Cheese fingers, what did you need?" Amanda asked.

"What is Daniel's schedule like today? I need to set up a small meeting with him about something," Betty announced.

"Well, he has an opening at 3:00," Amanda said

"That will work! Thanks, Amanda."

At three a clock Daniel walked into her office confused as to why they needed to meet.

"Hey, Betty, what did you want to discuss?" Daniel asked

"So when were you going to tell me you were dating my sister?" Betty let out

"Well, I…. You know…"

"Three months, Daniel we're friends. You're supposed to tell me these things!"

"I know but….wait how did you know we have been dating for three months?"

"My dad called me two days ago saying that Hilda has been spending a lot of time with you. He also said that she leaves the house at ten at night and doesn't come home until five in the morning. She only does that when she has a new boyfriend," Betty said annoyed that Daniel didn't say anything.

"Ok Betty, I love your sister!" Daniel let out a little louder than he had intended.

"You love my sister?" Betty asked sincerely.

"Yes, I do. I really do." Daniel said softly as he looked at Betty.

Betty smiled at Daniel and gave him a hug. "That's great, Daniel! You and Hilda have been through so much and I'm just glad you guys are looking out for one another." Betty announced. She was going to have a long talk with Hilda tomorrow.

"Thanks, Betty, for understanding."Daniel let out.

"What's not to understand, my best friend and my sister are in love. I am really happy for you guys."

After a long day of work all Betty wanted to do was go home, have a nice dinner with Gio, maybe share a bubble bath, and go to bed.

When Betty walked through the door of the apartment she shared with Gio she had to take a step backwards. Gio had decorated the apartment with red, pink, and white roses and rose petals. The room smelled delicious and in the middle of the room stood Gio wearing a tux. Betty also noticed he had got a hair cut because it was nice and spiky.

"Gio, I can't believe you did all this. You look so good in that tux and your hair!" Betty let out as she kissed Gio's lips.

"Baby, I have something I want to ask you." Gio said softly as he got down on one knee.

Betty couldn't breathe but she only had one answer for him.

"Betty, I knew when I first met you that you were someone special. I of course had to look past the fact that you got me fired. But when you barked at me I knew I was in love."Gio announced as Betty smiled through her tears.

"I love you so much, Betty. I want to have babies with you, grow old with you, and even die with you. I know I said I was scared but I want to spend the rest of my life with you. So, Betty Suarez, will you marry me?"Gio said softly as he pulled out a box with a beautiful two karat diamond that had a platinum band.

"Yes, of course I will marry you!" Betty announced as she pulled Gio up from the floor and jumped into his arms.

"Gio, I also want to have babies with you, grow old with you, I don't know about the dying part but the spending the rest of my life with you sounds really good. I love you so much, Gio and I thank God everyday for sending you to me." Betty let out as more tears came down her face. Gio also had tears in his eyes as he stared at Betty.

"So, what's for dinner? It smells delicious." Betty asked as she wiped the tears from her eyes.

"I tried something different this. I made Baked Spaghetti and this time we won't forget about the dessert." Gio said as he walked into the kitchen.

"Well, what's for dessert?" Betty asked.

"Napoleon Ice cream." Gio commented as he wiggled his eyebrows.

"Gio!!!!" Betty let out as she laughed.

"I was just kidding, Betty. But we are really having ice cream for dessert." Gio announced as he set the table.

Betty took a good look at the ring that was on her finger. It really was beautiful and it fit her finger perfectly. She thought back to the promise ring Henry had given her two months before he left. It was one size bigger than the one she was wearing. She realized Henry never really knew her very well.

Gio came back out from the kitchen and smiled as he watched Betty admire her ring.

"Gio, how did you know my ring size?" Betty asked.

"I went and asked your dad for permission to marry you and Hilda gave me your ring size." Gio answered.

"You asked my dad for permission?"Betty asked thinking how much she really loved Gio.

"Yeah, I think it's important. He is the most important man in your life, Betty." Gio announced.

"He is important, but I'm looking at the most important man in my life." Betty complimented.

Gio kissed Betty's lips as he gathered her in his arms. He was so excited that they were going to get married.

After dinner and dessert Betty wanted to take that bubble bath she had been dreaming about since she left work.

"Hey, baby, I'm going to take a bath. Do you want to join me?" Betty asked as she slowly and seductively took off her blouse.

Gio smiled as he ran into the bathroom after Betty.

Two weeks later Betty woke up at 4:00 in the morning as she felt sick to her stomach. She ran to the bathroom and threw up all of her dinner.

Gio woke up to the sound of retching coming from the bathroom. He walked into the bathroom and immediately went over to Betty.

"Babe, are you ok?" Gio asked as he rubbed Betty's back.

"I don't know," Betty let out as she rested her head on Gio's shoulder. Gio felt her forehead to see if she had a fever. She was somewhat warm, so, he passed it off as the stomach flu.

"Come on Betty let's get back to bed." Gio said as he scooped her up and laid her back on their bed. Gio lied down beside her and rubbed her back as she fell back to sleep.

Betty for the next week kept getting sick no matter what she ate. She was really tired all the time even when she had gotten enough sleep. She knew something was wrong and she was hoping it wasn't as bad as when her mother got sick.

"Hilda, I'm scared. What if I'm sick like mom?"

"Betty, your symptoms kind of remind me of when I found out I was pregnant with Justin."Hilda let out.

"I didn't even think about being pregnant. I just assumed the worst when I started feeling sick." Betty announced as she thought about all the times Gio and her made love. They had never used protection which was probably not smart but neither one of them thought about it at the time.

"Betty, I think you should take a pregnancy test." Hilda let out.

"I think your right," Betty said as they both grabbed their purses and went to the store.

Thirty minutes later and one pregnancy test taken, Betty stepped out of the bathroom.

"I'm pregnant!"
