"No, that's not a good idea" I said shaking my head.

"I don't see why not. I think it'll do good for the both of you" Gio responded. "People don't expect you to show up at such an event without a date. She'll make you look good and it'll give her an opportunity to be somewhere else besides inside your apartment"

"That really isn't a suggestion is it? You're telling me straight up to take her aren't you?" I asked him though I already know the answer.

"Precisely" Gio smirked knowing he got me right where he wanted me now. "And I think Lexi, would like the idea, for some reason she seems taken to her. Guess she has a special liking for social misfits"

"No doubt about that" I replied rolling my eyes. "No wonder I'm not exactly in her corner"

"That may change" Gio chuckled. "Or probably gets worst, especially now"

"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked feeling annoyed with his comment.

"Well I've been meaning to tell you, with a new heir to the Cavelli empire on the way. There's a possibility that Lexi will be a bit more lenient towards you now or she might actually eventually kill you" Gio replied surprising me.

"Wait, she's pregnant?" I asked him.

"Yes. Its official I'm going to be a father now" Gio smiled.

"Wow, that's...that's great" I said as I started smiling happy for him that he's gotten a second chance after what happened the first time. "Dude, congratulations man!"

Amy's POV

"Wow, Greta I have to tell you I've never tried doing chicken Parmesan lasagna before" I said as I removing the dish from the oven. "But thanks to you, I'll have to give myself a tap on the back-this looks great"

"It sure does dear" Greta laugh after taking out the second one. "You're a pro now"

"I guess I am" I laughed as I removed the oven mitts from my hand and admiring our work.
