My Little Princesa

Chapter Thirty-Four: Just Another Blessing

Watching Sergio with the children, Camille couldn't help but smile knowing that she could have done a lot worse than him; she honestly couldn't imagine doing this without him by her side.

In the fifteen months since this had started, Camille had found her life changed for the better and she found herself starting to think about the future; she couldn't believe that she was going to be a mother again.

Isabel was eight months old now and Camille knew that it was the perfect time for them to have another; she was twelve weeks now and she still hadn't told Sergio that they were going to have another baby.

Every time she went to tell him, the words just wouldn't come out and Camille was surprised that he hadn't noticed or commented on the small bump that she was carrying now.

It wasn't much of one and Camille knew that she was probably more aware of it because she knew that she was pregnant but it made her wonder how Sergio would react when she told him.

Already the footballer had three children and Camille wasn't sure how he would feel about a fourth, she had thought they'd talk about this before she fell pregnant again.

Moving away from the window, Camille headed for the living room to distract herself; she was glad that Sergio got to spend time with his sons but she got the feeling they didn't like her much.

Pilar had dropped the boys off that morning and she hadn't looked pleased to find out that Camille was still home; it was like she had expected her to disappear for the day while her sons were here.

The boys did, however, seem to like their baby sister and Camille was pleased that they got along; it didn't matter to them that they had different mothers.

For Sergio's sake, Camille hoped that it would always be that way; she would always encourage Sergio to spend time with his children no matter what.

Sitting down on the couch, Camille chewed on her lip wondering what to do since she didn't wish to interrupt the fun outside; she found herself looking towards the bridal magazine that Paqui had brought the other day.

Things were still a little odd with her visiting more and Sergio wasn't sure what to think; he was wary and was keeping a close eye on her even if he did hope that she was letting go of the past.

Carefully picking up the magazine, Camille swallowed before she slowly started to look through the magazine and couldn't help but find herself thinking about her own wedding day.

The date had been set as agreed with Sergio, she would be getting married in April 2019 and Camille knew that her father was itching for her to start planning.

Albert wanted a wedding that would do his eldest daughter justice, she deserved the wedding of her dreams and he was sure that it would be magnificent.

It wasn't going to be an easy occasion and Camille had found herself thinking of her mother increasingly since she had become a mother herself.

Amelia would have adored being a grandmother and she would have offered her advice on how to handle all of this; she would have done everything in her power to support Camille.

Swallowing the lump that had formed in her throat, Camille closed the magazine knowing that her wedding would always be missing the one person that she wanted there no matter what.

There was no bring her mother back and Camille wondered if she was proud of her; she was bound to be watching her from heaven and she wanted to make her proud.

Sergio swallowed the lump that had formed in his throat, he hated watching his sons leave with their mother but he was just glad that he got to spend time with them even if it wasn't as long as he liked.

Pilar was still unhappy about having her sons around Camille even if she had accepted the fact that they had to be around Isabel because she was their half-sister.

The only thing that kept the peace was the deal that Sergio and Pilar had settled upon in court, it wasn't easy but they were willing to put their sons first with everything that was going on.

Heading back into the house, Sergio took a deep breath and smiled to himself knowing that his life couldn't have been better at that moment; he was happy with how things were working out.

Sure, things could get a little tense especially now that Paqui was coming around more; he wanted nothing more than to believe that she was changing for the better.

He didn't want to fight with anyone anymore and Sergio just wanted to protect the peace that seemed to have landed now that things weren't so up in the air.

The more time he spent with Camille, the more Sergio found himself falling for her; she was an amazing woman and he knew that she would be returning to official royal duties soon.

Camille took a deep breath, she had just settled Isabel down for the night and she knew that it was time for her to fess up to Sergio about the fact that she was pregnant again.

However, the words wouldn't come out and Camille couldn't believe that she had such trouble telling him that she was pregnant now that they were in a relationship together.

"I know," Sergio told her reassuringly, he couldn't help but smile at the mere thought that they were going to have another baby together and he was sure that everything was going to be okay.

It had come as a surprise when he had realised that she was pregnant and he had found himself smiling fondly at the thought of another baby.

He loved Junior, Marco and Isabel and the thought of becoming a father again hadn't really crossed his mind until he had found out that Camille was pregnant again; he liked the idea the more that he thought about it.

Camille stared at him unsure how to respond to that, she watched him as he stepped closer with a smile on his face; she felt relieved that he seemed to be happy about it.

Gently pulling her close, Sergio wrapped his arms around Camille knowing nothing could ruin this for them; everything was going so well and he wouldn't change this for the world.

"I love you," Sergio said with a smile, he was sure of his feelings and nothing could be said that would disway how he felt for the woman that had changed his life.

He had been waiting until he was sure of how he felt before announcing it to Camille; he didn't want to scare her off when she was still so unsure of them but he wanted her to know how he felt.

The startled look on her face made Sergio smile and he knew that he would wait happily until she was ready to say those words back to him.

Things had been going so well for them recently and he wasn't going to risk anything ruining things for them now; he had never thought that things would work out like they would for them.

The road that they had taken wasn't going to be an easy one but he was sure that it would be worth it when things settled down and they were married.

Isabel was wonderful and he was sure that a second baby would only make things even better; he loved his children and the more the better in his opinion.

Camille stared at Sergio, she could feel herself falling for him and she knew that it wouldn't be long before she was ready to return those words.
