The rest of this week was bittersweet. Jessica and Luis threw me a little party Friday during our lunch hour and it was fun. Jessica made a comment on how now she has an excuse to come over to my house that's like paradise, making me laugh. Luis said that now he has an excuse to actually see my house, so I told him his ass better show up soon. I've grown to love him as a brother, he's hilarious. My assistant, since Penelope left, is a young man. His name is Ismael Santiago. In his early twenties, sweet, really professional and totally has the hots for Luis. And Luis knows this but plays hard to get. Jessica and I get a kick out of it.

Oh! Penelope actually contacted me on Thursday. Which is great! I was so glad to hear she was doing amazing in New York. She let me know she's coming over for Thanksgiving with her boyfriend, Ben, his son and her niece. She was throwing hints on wanting to see me, so I agreed. I would love to catch up with her in person.

Leaving work Friday afternoon was a bit emotional, who knows how long I'll be gone. Who knows if I'll even return to GEH. Christian drive us home, and we had family movie night with the kids.

It's Saturday morning and I feel different. This is a new chapter in my life, one where I know control what I want next and I absolutely love it. Elliot and Kate came over to take the kids out to the park, so Christian and I are lounging in the game room, watching movies.

"Oh.." I say as I feel a kick. "Jesus.. Aleah is playing soccer now."

"She's kicking?" He chuckles and I nod, placing his hands on my stomach. He moves up a bit and kisses to tummy, making me smile.

"Hey, Aleah, it's daddy.." He says and she moves this time. "You think she hears me?"

"Yes," I nod.

"Be nice to mommy in there, I'm sure that hurts her. Maybe, I don't know. But just be nice okay princess." I tear up. "You'll be my princess just like your sister Phoebe is my princess. You also have a brother named Teddy and he's the prince. We're all excited to meet you." I wipe my tears and pull him up to kiss him.

"I love you."

"I love you too, beautiful."

Later on the in the day, Kate and Elliot arrive with screaming kids begging to stay over their aunt and uncle's house. Christian and I gave them permission and packed them clothes in their overnight bags and walked them out, telling each kid to behave.

That night Mariana gave me a call, she usually sends me a text updating me on her life and situation, and I'm always glad to hear that everything is going great. She lives her boyfriend now, and the school year is off to a great start. But.. There's still some tension between her and Michael. I hope that soon they'll be able to move on.

Sunday is an interesting day. Christian tells me to get ready, that he will be taking me out. I'm hesitant. A little less than a month ago, paparazzi caught a photo of me with my belly really visible. Though, they haven't approached us or even made a big deal about it, it's only a matter of time before they do. We haven't been out since, except on my birthday. Which was the first time we all went out as a family since the picture was posted up, and the only reason we went out is because it was all discreet. I don't want the kids being caught in the middle of a paparazzi attack.

"Taylor and Ryan will be with us." Christian says as I finish getting ready. I nod thankfully.

Christian decides to take me shopping. I roll my eyes and smile because arguing with him about this will be a hassle, so I just let him.

Taylor and Ryan stay near us the whole entire time. Never leaving our side. Christian pulls me into a jewelry store and I smile. Here we go..

"You know Christian.. You could buy me food and I'd be happy."

"Yeah well I like to see you squirm every time I buy you something 'expensive'. So this is more fun." I shove him and he laugh. "You're aggressive, baby."

"It's your fault."

After thirty minutes he buys me a silvery bracelet that has a diamond encrusted 'A'. It's rather cute and I'd be lying if I said I didn't love it.

"Oh, babe, look at that necklace. I think it'll look nice on Phoebe." He points out to a silver necklace with a blue diamond heart.

"My love, that's a lot of money. She'll probably lose it or break it."

"But it's blue, and it's a heart."

I giggle. "Yeah and she's 5 there's no way in hell she'll be wearing that to school and we barely go out."

"But it's blue and it's a heart, and baby, it's really pretty. She'll love it."

"I get she's your princess but what did I say about spoiling."

"I'm her father it's my job." I get on my toes and kiss him.

"Fine. But on one condition."

"Which is?"

"It'll be given to her on her birthday."

"Fine," he nods. "I can do that."

He buys me the bracelet and Phoebe's necklace. And even gets a chain for Teddy.

We continue to pass by stores and we slowly get to one that sells suits. Well tailored suits.. So I smirk. "Come on let's go on here and you can model some suits for me. It'll get me hot." I joke, kind off. Which girl doesn't love seeing a handsome man in a suit?

"Whatever you want."

We spend nearly an hour in there laughing and having a good time. He tried on about eight suits and actually modeled them for me. I don't think we've ever been this carefree.

We decide to take a break and get something to eat. Deciding on burgers, we buy our food and take a seat.

"Let me see the pictures you too and- oh no don't put that face. I saw you. You aren't that sneaky." I laugh and hand over my phone to him.

"Delete. Delete. Delete.."

"NO" I squeal laughing. "Christian!"

"Delete.."

"GIVE ME MY PHONE" now I'm laughing so hard I need to take a breath. "Don't delete! Those are for my own personal pleasure."

Taylor and Ryan, who are sitting near us, are now chuckling as well.

"Delete.." He teases again and when I try to reach for my phone, he drops it. "Shit!"

I pick up my blackberry and see the screen cracked. "You sir, owe me a new phone." I laugh.

"Blackberry's are so outdated. Let's upgrade to an iPhone."

"I'm only agreeing since I was thinking about changing it for a while now." I smile and finish eating. Once we both finish we head over to the phone store to get new phone. I must say, I'm glad to get a new one. The blackberry was beginning to become a struggle for me.

Christian decides to call it a day, I'm guessing is because he must have seen me feeling a bit tired. My feet were beginning to hurt so I was walking funny. Walking hand in hand to the car, Taylor in front and Ryan behind, we notice the parasite lurking around us. Waiting for the right moment to walk up.

"Taylor.." Christian says and he nods, knowing what he meant. I try to walk a bit faster but shit I can't. I'm seven months pregnant with two feet that hurt!

I look to my left and they are already coming towards us, so I squeeze my husbands hand. He ends up putting his arm around me.

"Mrs. Grey, how far are you?" One asks.

"When is the baby due?"

"Is it a boy or a girl?"

More keep popping up.

"What's the name?"

The one by me seems to get closer and closer and now I'm getting afraid. I don't want them on top of me, I could get hurt.

"Mrs. Grey, is it true you got pregnant on purpose?"

"Jesus.." I say. "That is so cliche! Couldn't come up with something better? Oh, and can you please step back?" I roll my eyes and Ryan helps me with the guy and gets me inside the car quickly. Christian rushes to the other side.

On our ride home, we're both angry just because the ambush was insane.

At home we head into our room. I take off my shoes and lay down, Christian sits at the edge and massages them. He's an angel.

"It was only a matter of time before that happened."

"Yup," I nod. "I was waiting for it to happen."

"Well.. At least we had a great day. Just us two. I love the kids but it's always nice to have some alone time."

"Agreed."
