Did she kill him?
Did Dante convince her to be with him?
So many things could happen.
But those thoughts go out the window when Leo and I walk towards the center of the building where we see two tall guys wearing black pants and shirts.
They raise their heads as we walk closer to them, and Leo and I raise our guns at the same time they do.
We start shooting bullets at the same time they pull the triggers on their guns.
Bullets are flying as Leo and I dodge them, trying not to get hit.
Twenty One
"Oh, my-she is beautiful, Aria,"my mom says as she walks closer to me as I sit in the bed while holding the baby. "What's her name?"
"Do you want to tell them or me?" I ask Ace as he is looking down at the baby in my arms.
"You can. It doesn't matter," Ace says with a smile on his face.
He looks so happy. I have never seen him this happy before and it makes me want to stare at his beautiful smile forever as he looks down at our baby girl.
"Thalia Judd De Luca," I say, and everyone smiles.
"Where did you get her middle name?" my dad asks.
I look at Ace for him to tell. "My mom. It was her middle name."
"That's beautiful, Ace," my mom smiles at him.
Ace and I had already discussed the middle name once we found out it was a girl. I loved Judd for a middle name, and it fits perfectly with the name we gave her.
"Do you want to hold her?" Ace asks my mom.
My mom nods her head and Ace places Thalia into my mom's arms.
"She looks just like you, Aria," my dad says as he looks over my mom's shoulder.
Leo walks towards Ace. "Good job, dude." He does a small handshake with Ace.
“The fuck? I am the one who pushed the baby out,” I say looking at Leo and he looks at me and laughs.
“Good job, Aria. You did amazing,” Leo smiles at me.
"Do you want to hold her, Alex?" my mother asks, looking at Alex who is staring at Thalia.
“Wait, did you all wash your hands? I don’t know what you have been touching and I want to make sure your hands are clean,” I say making everyone in the room laugh.
I open my eyes and at first, my vision is kind of blurry, but they adjust to the lighting in the room. I look around me and see a desk and a chair. There is only one source of light in the room and that’s the light that is attached to the ceiling.
That dream.
Ace was in it as well as my family and Ace's family. It felt like a distant memory, but I know I have never had a kid before and Ace and I would never have a kid together either.
But the baby girl's name is Thalia. I swear I have heard that name before in the house.
I sit up while putting a hand to my head, feeling like a freaking elephant stepped on my head.
