For 5 years of being together, Valentine's Day has always been special. But this year it felt different. Charles organized a small private Valentine's Dinner for you and him. And you have a secret that he will find out today.
The room was dimly lit. The only light was the glow of the candles. Red roses decorated the table and heart-shaped balloons floated gently in the background.
Charles sat across from you, his Hair slightly messy, his little dimples show up while he smiles and his blue eyes are filled with warmth as he reaches for your hand.
"It's really nice. You know, not having so many people around." He said, his voice softer than usual.
"Yeah, it is." You smile gently. The butterflies in your stomach drive you crazy as you look at the small gift box next to your plate.
"I have something for you," You say. Your heart is pounding as you push it towards him. He smiles widely.
He takes the box in his hands and carefully untying the ribbon. As he lifted the lid, his expression shifted from excitement to pure shock.
Inside of the box was a tiny onesie with the words : 'I can't wait to meet you, Daddy' in an elegant script. And a small note rested on top:
You're going to be a Daddy!!
Charles eyes flicking up to meet yours. Silence appears between you two for a moment. He looks down again and takes the onesie in his hands.
"Are you serious?" His voice trembles, emotions in his throat. Tears well up in your eyes as you nod.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Charles." You whisper.
He goes with his hands through his face for a moment before looking back at you. A huge grin spreading across his face and tears filling his eyes.
He jumps up from his chair, pulls you into his arms and lifts you up while he spins you around.
"Were Pregnant!! I mean you are pregnant!! We going to be Parents!! I can't believe this!!" He says loud. You laugh while tears running down your cheeks.
He puts you down again and pulls you to his chest. "I love you so much," He murmurs.
