Thankyou to all of my loyal reviewers once again! I know this one is late, but I realised today this is starting to come to a close now, and Its made me kind of sad, I got rather emotional whislt writting this,and have watched all of my old Classic R/M OC's recently, just to get in that spirit.
R/R and tell me your thoughts please :)
Ryan sat in the living Room of Marissa's suite in the Ritz in Paris, he had been out on the balcony for about an hour, just staring at the amazing buildings, being an architect in Paris, was like being in his element, also being with the woman he loved more than anything else in the world and his gorgeous daughter, made him the happiest man alive. He was just waiting for his beautiful girls to get ready, then Marissa was going to take them to the best sites in Paris, not that Ottilie would really care, but it was their first family vacation and even if it wasn't the most conventional holiday.
"Daddy look! Mommy bought me new clothes" Ryan turned his head and saw his daughter wearing a white sundress with red patent shoes and a red headband,
"Looks like Mommy has very good taste, you look beautiful" Ryan complimented her
"Yeh, you don't look to bad yourself" Ryan laughed at his daughters funny words and looked up to see Marissa, who was dressed in beige shorts and a white top, walked over to him and planted a kiss on his lips. He was unaware of quite how much he missed her, missed the ordinary and mundane things such as being around her, and holding her hand, and listen to her sing as she does anything , Marissa leant over and put her mouth near to Ryan's ears, carefully whispering so Ottilie couldn't overhear.
"I want to tell her," Ryan tightened his squeeze around Marissa's waist, telling her it was what he wanted to do as well, and when they broke apart, Ryan bent down to where Ottilie was, picking her up, and the family of 3 moved towards the sofa, and sat down in the comfortable furniture.
Marissa twirled a piece of Ottilie's hair around her finger, as she listened intently to what her daughter was saying about the time away from home she had missed, Ryan caught her eye and Marissa nodded to him, telling him it was the time
"Baby, Daddy and I have something to tell you" Marissa started while Ottilie looked on inquisitively
"Yeh?"
"Yep, I think you will like what you have to say Otty" Ryan told her hopefully as she looked excited,
"Really?"
"Well, your going to get a baby brother or sister" Marissa told her with a smile on her face while hoped Ottilie wasn't about to cry or throw a tantrum
"Really???" Ottilie asked as her eyes widened with surprise, Ryan and Marissa smiled at each other, happy that she was taking it so well, Marissa felt some tears leak out of her eyes,
"Oh this is so exciting! I get to be a big sister" Ottilie grinned happily and flew straight into Marissa and Ryan's arms. They were all content and silent for a while, when Ottilie broke their hug in Ryan's arms and looked at them both worriedly.
"You wont love me now you have a baby in your belly?" Ottilie asked timidly. Marissa shook her head immediately
"Oh sweetie no, we will love you both the same, I promise, Mommy's and Daddy's don't have favourites" Marissa told her daughter, knowing she would love them both the same, although thinking back to how her Mother always preferred her sister.
"Ok, then, will if you promise" Ottilie said, happy again. Their family moment was interrupted when the door swung open, and Kaitlin then followed, her lips attached to her actor friend, as they anxiously tried to take off each others clothes in an instant hurry. Ottilie's head swung round to see her favourite aunt, in a hurried rush.
"AUNTIE KAITLIN!!!!!!!" Ottilie jumped from Marissa's lap, leaving Ryan and Marissa laughing as her baby sister, turned round with a shocked look on her face, and her friend, with red lipstick smears around his mouth, with his shirt un-buttoned.
"Otty, B, indoor voice, Auntie Kaitlin has had a long night" Kaitlin said to her niece, who stopped to look at the new man standing next to her auntie.
"I didn't know you guys would be back here, in the suite, where we are now" Kaitlin said, trying to laugh to conceal the embarrassment of getting caught, Marissa raised her eyebrows at her younger sister
"Who's that?" Ottilie asked her inquisitively, while Marissa and Ryan tried to conceal their laughter.
"I'm Chace" The actor said to the younger girls whilst Kaitlin grinned with pride and smugness.
"Chace, Come and meet Ryan, he's like my brother" Kaitlin ushered him over to Ryan, where Ryan unlocked Marissa's arms and awkwardly shook his hand.
"Nice to meet you man" Chace looked nervous, as Ryan looked him up and down, to try and scare him, not that he meant to, but he liked to see Kaitlin squirm.
"Ok, right, so, lets get out of here" Kaitlin said, thinking of a quicker exit, she raised her eyebrows at the actor, who nodded reverently
"I will see you guys, later, bye Ottilie babes" Kaitlin quickly grabbed Chace, who smiled at the other couple nervously, and quickly followed Kaitlin out of the room, when they left and looked at Marissa with a smile on his face,
"Did I forget to mention? Kaitlin, made some new friends, he's been back here everyday" Marissa said laughing, as she moved back to cuddle into Ryan's chest, while Ottilie went over to her bag to finish her colouring off the day.
"No you hadn't, rather her than you, I'm so glad to see you again" Ryan tilted her chin and met her lips in a long passionate kiss,
"Gross!!!!!" Ottilie interrupted them, forcing them to break apart.
"You wont say that when your older" Marissa joked, moving herself to stand up.
"Mommy, are we still going to that tower thing?" Ottilie asked her, Marissa nodded towards her and then turned round to look at Ryan, who was shaking his head at her,
"No, no, Eiffel Tower" Ryan said, trying to still sound brave
"Oh come on, Ryan, you got over this years ago, I promise you will love it," Marissa said, trying to reason with him.
"I doubt it" Ryan told her, his mood having changed, Marissa walked back over to him and planted another kiss on his lips, convincing Ryan to forgot about his fear,
"Come on, I will make it worth your while" Marissa told him as he smiled into her ear.
"Fine" Ryan said succumbing and smiled seeing her grin flash at him.
"Venez sur l'amoureux, Paris attend" She turned and winked at him, moving over to collect the rest of her things she would need to go around the city, as Ryan just looked at her in amazement, wondering how he ever got so lucky.
________________________________
It had been quite a tiresome afternoon, only a few photographers had taken their pictures as they wandered around famous sites such as the Champs Elyesees, The Notre Dame, The Arc di Trimuph, and the flagship Chanel store in 31 Rue Cambon, where she bought Ottilie another one of her favourite Chanel 2.5, from the famous store in the world, too which Ottilie had been delighted about, then Marissa told her she was a 'grown up fashionista' toting around a Chanel Carrier in the fashion capital of the world, after this compliment, that Ottilie had no clue about the meaning, she tried to model walk, like Marissa had taught her, much to her parents amusement.
Ryan, had been just as excited to see the famous city as his daughter had, as an architect, he was amazed by the designing of some of the most famous buildings in the whole world. Although it was such a happy day, there was something that made Ryan feel nervous and anxious. Little did Marissa know, that in his pocket was a ring, an diamond engagement ring. Encased in a tiffany blue box, that he had bought when he was back in LA, he didn't know when he was planning to ask her, but he knew he wanted to, he loved her more than anything, and he knew she was the woman he wanted to be with, forever and always.
"One more stop, and we will be at the Eiffel Tower" It was still daylight, but for not much longer, and they were on a whistle stop tour bus of the city, Marissa's long sandy blonde hair was flowing against the wind, and she had their daughter on her lap, who's exactly the same coloured hair was doing the same thing. Ottilie giggled as Marissa whispered something into her ear and her hair tipped back, and in the light, you could see the faint speckering of freckles on the bridge of her nose, Ryan sat and wondered what their second child would look like, would it be another girl, or a boy? Either he would be thrilled with, although he was starting to become outnumbered again. Marissa looked over to him, and smiled that mega watt smile, that made him just want to kiss her, yes the love he felt for this woman was out of this world.
"Is that the tower thingy Mommy?" Ottilie asked in her California girl accent
"Yes, sweetie, where here" Marissa stood up, and grabbed Ryan's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze, as she saw his eyes double over at the size of the building. He opened his mouth to say something but Marissa stopped him,
"I'm here, come on, do it for us" Ryan took a deep breath and Marissa smiled at his nervousness, she squeezed his hand, and grabbed onto Ottilie's as the family of 3 walked towards the huge monument, Ryan gazed above them at the tower, which seemed to go on forever, Ottilie spoke incessantly about how she was excited, as they neared the elevator, which would take them to up the tower, Ryan become quiet, and his grip on Marissa's hand tightened.
"You just need something to take your mind off of it is all" Marissa smiled as she leant into kiss him, just as she had on the Ferris Wheel all those years ago, Ottilie watched out of the window, as the Elevator rose higher and higher above the city, amazed at the world outside the box, however Marissa was trying to direct as much of Ryan's attention she could onto him kissing her, so then hopefully, he wouldn't realise that they had been kissing way past the first drop off point, and were now heading for the 2nd floor. Marissa broke the kiss and planted a kiss on her small nose,
"Come on, this is our stop" Ryan took a deep breath, and bent down to pick Ottilie up, at least he had something to keep his mind occupied, and followed Marissa cautiously onto the step, keeping a tight grip on Ottilie as they all looked over the beautiful city of Paris, with a backdrop of pink in the sun setting sky,
"I want to go to the edge, and look" Ottilie said as she struggled to get down, Ryan let her down, and she moved closer to the edge, to look through the bars, Marissa crept up next to him and held his hand, he pressed a kiss to his ear.
"Although I feel like this thing could fall over, Its beautiful and I'm glad you made me do it" Ryan said pressing a kiss to her cheek, he moved to stand behind her, so Marissa stood against his chest, and he knew that it was the moment he had been waiting for.
"Its just so breathtaking, you feel like your on top of the world" Marissa said, smiling at their daughter, who was looking all around intently.
"I love you" Ryan told her randomly, pressing a kiss into her head, and letting go of her one hand to get the box out of his pocket.
"I love you too" Marissa said sighing in happiness.
"Marry me" He said it more of a statement, than a question, her eyes widened in surprise and she turned round in shock, he smiled at her, one that melted her heart, and she noticed him holding a tiffany box, she was lost for words, trying to speak however none were coming out, all she could do was smile and nod as tears flew out of her eyes,
"I known since the day I met you, that I loved you, and we have come so far, lets go the rest of the way, together, as man and wife"
"Yes" Marissa squeaked before she threw herself into his arms, in a fit of tears, of happiness only, when they broke apart, she planted a huge kiss on his lips, excited for the new life she was embarking on. When they broke apart, Ryan placed the diamond onto her ring finger, it was a perfect fit, just like her and Ryan were, Marissa was lost for words, it was one of the most happiest moments of her life, besides Ottilie being born.
"Otty baby, you can come over here now" Ryan said, ecstatically
"I asked her," Ryan said bending down to pick his daughter up, so she could share their moment.
"What did you say Mommy?!" Ottilie asked her, Marissa shed more tears, realising that her daughter was in on the plan as well.
"I said yes baby, I said yes" She finished off her sentence with another kiss on Ryan's lips, while she carried on shedding tears of happiness. Excited for her new life, as Mrs Ryan Atwood.
What did you think?
