Giovanni and I finally get out of bed and get dressed to go to the hospital. I put on a simple pair of jeans and a white top, taking my Prada bag and sunglasses with me. Giovanni looks breath taking even though he is only in a black shirt and black jeans.
He notices me walk into the kitchen and instantly puts his phone down, turning around and pulling me into his chest. He kisses me on the forehead before looking down at me.
"Sei la ragazza più bella che abbia mai visto." I smile at his words but he doesn't know that I understand him. (Translation: You're the most gorgeous girl i have ever seen)
"You ready to go princess?" My heart flutters at the use of his nickname and I nod my head. I say goodbye to Luca and Angelo, even thought Angelo doesn't really talk to me still, and we leave the house.
On the way to the hospital, I was nervous and I think Giovanni could sense that because he kept me distracted by asking me questions about my childhood. We got into the waiting room and I anxiously bounced my knee. Giovanni placed his hand on my knee and I looked up at him.
"You're okay princess. Everything is going to be okay." I nod and he places a kiss on my forehead, something that we do quite a lot.
The doctor calls us into the room and Giovanni follows me in as I sit on the table.
"Now, Miss De La Croix, I've been told you need a checkup." I nod and the doctor gets me to lie down on my stomach and starts the ultrasound. I anxiously hold Giovanni's hand as I watch her roll the device around my stomach. Giovanni squeezes my hand and I squeeze it back as she turns back to us.
"Good news Miss De La Croix, your baby is happy and healthy." I feel relief wash over me and I even hear Giovanni sigh a breath of relief.
"Would if be okay if you could show us the baby and tell us the gender?" The doctor smiles and nods at me. She brings the screen around so we can see and I sit up a bit.

I instantly fall in love with my baby as I see it come up on the screen. I turn to look at Giovanni to see him staring at the screen with tears in his eyes. I grab his hand and he looks down at me, squeezing my hand three times.
I look back at the screen and the doctor turns to us.
"Do you still want to know the gender?" I nod and she smiles at me.
"It's a boy." My heart melts knowing that I'm going to have my own baby boy. Tears fall out of my eyes and I laugh in joy. Giovanni turns to me and kisses me on the forehead while I continue to watch the screen.
When we arrive home, I notice Giovanni is distant towards me. I brush it off as him being tired and rush to tell Luca the news. I run outside to where Luca is laying on one of the pool chairs and jump on top of him.
"It's a boy!" Luca smiles at me and pulls me in to a hug.
"Oh my god Anna. I'm so happy for you!" I smile at him and crawl off of him, sitting down on the pool chair next to him.
"Yeah." He notices that I'm a bit sad and sits up.
"Whats the matter?"
"I just wish it wasn't Nicholas'." He sighs and places his hand on my shoulder.
"Don't worry. It will have us and you to make up for that. That also reminds me, we need to come up with some names for the baby. Where's Giovanni?" I shrug my shoulders.
"He was distant when he came home. He went up to the bedroom. I think he is just tired." Luca suddenly looks angry and he stands up to walk inside.
