-Heather's POV
After we all got settled at the table. I couldn't help but be an awe. The twinkle lights and the chandelier giving an elegance. I ended up between my father and Xavier with Luca on my lap. My mother setting by my father. Xavier's parents sitting at the heads of the tables. Cami setting between Chris and Nicholas. I couldn't stop smiling. Tessa and Leo began bringing out dishes for us. Everyone making polite conversation with each other. Luca left me to set on my mother's lap bringing a wide smile to her.
I jumped suddenly when I feel a hand grasp my thigh. I notice no one really saw my outburst. I look down to seeing Xavier's hand firmly grasping it. I discreetly trying to move his hand but he just grips tighter. I look to his face to see him continuing his conversation with his father but with a smirk pulling in the corner of his lips. I narrow my gaze at him and smirk coming up with my own plan. I begin trailing my hand over his leg and the reaction is instantaneous. He body stiffens and his eyes go wide. I see him reach for a glass of water while I grin.
"Xavier sweetie, are you okay?" I couldn't help but chuckle which I covered by taking a bite of food. Xavier looks at me from the corner of his eye before answering his mom. The attention drawn to him now. He clears his throat.
"Yes mom, just feeling slightly tired." He lied smoothly. "Actually everyone Heather and I have an announcement to make."
It was my turn to choke this time. I cough and give a sip of water. He places his hand out and I take it. He interlocks our hand while I scan the table seeing everyone giving us their attention. I see Cami with a gleam in her eyes. I watch Luca look between the two of us with confusion which just makes me smile at him.
"I have asked Heather to move in with Luca and myself." He pauses for a second. My eyes remaining on Luca's face. His eyes lighting up. "And she has agreed."
I watch as he jumps up from Cami's thrusting his arms in the air shouting 'YES'. Everyone looks on him adoringly. I look from each of their faces and relief washes over me seeing no disgruntle faces. My mother is giving a knowing smile and a wink to me. I giggle softly shaking my head.
"I apologize I'm late."
All are heads turn to see Theo walking towards us. I roll my eyes at him but smile none the less. He continues walking over to Xavier and I. We both stand up giving him a hug before he looks over and see Chris sitting by Cami. He's raises an eyebrow at him which Christopher returns. Oh no! Not this again... I watch as my brother gets a mischievous glint in his eyes and grins. His arms drapes over the back of Cami's seat. Theo watches the exchange and I see his muscles tense while his eyes narrow at Chris's arm.
"Cami, I have a surprise for the happy couple in the house. Can you help me?" Theo asks. His eyes still locked on Chris who looks like he is suppressing his own laugh. Cami nods and stands up handing Luca over to Nicholas. I watch as she walks around the table timidly. When she is within reach, Theo pulls her into his side placing an arm around her waist while still looking at Chris. Nicholas is watching the exchange chuckling lowly. I look at Cami who is rolling her eyes but smiling as well. Theo begins guiding her inside. As soon as they are far enough away, we all erupt into laughter. Luca looks at all confused but shrugs.
"Oh that was priceless." Nicholas said fist bumping Christopher. Xavier's arm wraps around my shoulder pulling me to his side. "Brings back memories Xavier?"
"It's different from this side." He says looking down at me. I grin and peck his lips.
"Alright so who was he anyway?" Christopher says directing his question to me.
"He's the man who is smitten with Cami but hasn't done anything about it yet." I say looking back to the house.
He claps his hands together and rubs them together looking like an evil mastermind. "Alright everyone, no one say who I am. Let's see how long it takes to crack him."
I see the parents all shaking their heads but don't disagree. Nicholas lets out a loud laugh while Xavier and I smirk.
-Xavier's POV
I look around the table at all the people who now have a place in my life. All the bubbly chatter and laughs being shared warming my heart. Once Cami and Theo came back out, it took less than 5 minutes for him to snap on Christopher. We all laughed causing him to look confused until Cami introduced Chris to him. He was quick to give a sheepish smile but none the less glued himself to Cami's side. Christopher and Nicholas have since taken Luca inside to play. I look down at my sweetheart to see her eyes getting heavy. I kiss the side of her head and see her close her eyes and hum.
"Everyone, thank you for coming for dinner. Special thanks to Tessa and Leo for making all this happen." I give them a clap that everyone joins in on. Tessa and Leo smile at each other giving a slight bow. "You are more than welcome to stay the evening if you wish however it is time for Heather and myself to retire for the evening."
They all stand up walking over to us giving us hugs. I was even shocked when Derek walked over giving me a pat on the back. Both of our mothers smiling widely like we were making their biggest dreams come true. I walk in with Heather leaning against my arm. I turn and pick her up bridal style while she nuzzles into my neck. I walk past Christopher who pats my shoulder heading back outside with everyone else. I then see Nicholas carrying a sleeping Luca up to his room. I give him a thank you before taking Heather to the bed.
I lay her down on the bed and begin stripping her of her clothes which she doesn't protest. I then notice the lingerie she is in making me groan. Fuck, she is perfect. I take a deep breath and cuddle behind her kissing her neck. She sighs and tilts her head giving me more access. After a thorough amount of hickeys, she turns in my arms and latches her lips to mine.
"Fuck sweetheart, I want to be inside you." I groan out.
"Mmm, me too."
