Laylani's POV 

"Laylani, did he really? Did he finally propose?"

"Yup, he proposed." I say as my face grows warm with excitement a smile spreads across it. 

"Damn, I have to see the rock; I'll be over in ten."

"Este, you don't have to do that I can send you a picture," I say laughing as I stretch my hand forward and admire my ring. 

"No! I want to see it in person. I'll be over in a few."

"You will?! 

"Of course, you did the same for me. Be over in ten." The line goes dead and I set my phone on the couch beside me. 

"Este is coming over," I yell to Bruno from the living room.

"Ok!" he calls back. Just then Bruno walks out of the bedroom in his usual: a band tee, jeans and multicolored socks. He jumps into the couch beside me and put his his arms around my shoulders. Geronimo walks out behind him and settles between our legs on the floor. Bruno pulls me in close and gives me a sloppy wet kiss on the cheek. "Yuck!" I say as I wipe the kiss away. 

"I'm offended."

"Why 'cuz I wiped off your nasty ass kiss?"

"Yes," Bruno says as he turns away from me. "You hurt my feelings."

"Oh please you big baby. You've been up against all of this," I gesture to my self. "since we were six years old, you should know me by now," I tease. I take his shoulder and turn him back to me; he has begun to pout. He gives me his puppy-dog eyes and sticks his lower lip further. "What is that supposed to do?"

"Make you say sorry," He whines. 

"Alright, alright fine. I'm sorry," I say as I pull his face to mine and kiss him softly. He begins to smile and pulls my chin in for another kiss. "Feel better?"

"Nope, not yet but I think," he says. He kisses me again. "I should be ok after a few more of," he plants another kiss. "these. I should be fine." We share a prolonged kiss and then pull away. The door bell rings. G bolts to the door and begins barking. Bruno kisses me once more and gets up to answer it. Este stands in the doorway. He greets Bruno and then steps inside. After a quick sniff and some petting from Este, G returns to his spot by the couch. I push myself up out of the couch and give him a Este a hug. 

"I see my future niece is getting pretty big there," He says touching my belly. He squats down. "You can call me Tio Este, " He rubs my belly gently and then stands. "So, I about this rock." He lifts my left hand pull his glasses out of his inner jacket pocket. He puts his glasses on and slides them all the way down to the tip of his nose like a little old man. I laugh as he examines the ring from all angles and begins to mumble something about cut, style and karats under his breath.
