Ximena's

POV

I was planning to give them a piece of my mind when I saw them. I had a lot of work to do, and patients to attend to but they sent a make-up artist to my house to doll me up making it very hard for me to focus on work. But, when the door opened and I saw them standing there, the words died in my mouth. They are dressed in black suits and silver ties matching my dress. They already had everything planned.

"Damn," they breathed out after a while.

"Mummy looks amazing right?" Mady asked excitedly.

"She looks more than amazing. She looks breathtaking," Alex replied, his eyes not leaving mine. I cleared my throat looking anywhere else but at them.

"We should get going," Julian said. I turned towards the kids.

"I know what you are about to say. We will brush our teeth, take a shower and go to bed early. I will make sure I tuck Mason in. You don't have to worry about anything mummy," Mady assured me before I could say anything.

"Why would you tuck me in? I should be the one tucking you in," Mason grumbled. If I let them be, I knew this was going to be the start of another bickering war.

"Don't argue kids. Listen to your nanny and call me immediately if there's something wrong. Okay?" I asked.

"Okay, hurry up and leave. It's getting late," Mady probed.

Philip held out his hand for me. I gently placed my hand on his.

"Bye kids," they waved at them. The kids waved back and went inside. Philip led me to the car and opened the door for me.

"Thank you," I muttered.

"No need to thank me for doing the right thing," he replied. Alex and Julian got on the back while Julian began to drive towards their pack.

"Where are we going and what's this surprise? Why have you gotten me all dressed up? I'm supposed to be preparing for my patient tomorrow morning..."

"Relax Emma. Take a deep breath," Julian said in amusement.

"So many questions all at once. Which one should we start by answering?" Alex inquired.

"Start by answering them all," I retorted.

"I know you are curious babe but you will have to be patient," Philip said. I glanced at him sharply. Did he just call me...

"Is something wrong?" he asked with a smile, his eyes fixated on the road. Why was he acting like he didn't know what he just said? I cleared my throat. Well, I won't be the one to point it out.

"Everything is perfectly fine," I replied. They chuckled. Philip drove towards a restaurant. Surprisingly, I have never driven past here or eaten at this place before. He parked the car and they all got out. Just when I was about to open the door, Julian beat me to it.

"A queen isn't allowed to do this type of thing. We will handle it," he winked, giving me his hand. I hesitated for a while but slipped my hand in his. We all walked into the restaurant. Philip got the door.

"Ladies first," he said, gesturing for me to go inside. I walked in gently, the only sound that could be heard was the clicking of my heels.

"Wow," I mumbled, glancing around the place. It was huge. I could see four chairs surrounding a table. And rose petals covered the entire floor, there was a heart shape drawn with rose petals and little scented candles around it. The beautiful chandelier illuminated the place and the view was amazing. I could hear the faint music in the background.

"Do you like it?" Alex asked. I jumped a little bit, I didn't realize when he walked up so close to me.

"It's beautiful," I replied truthfully.

"Have a seat," he said, pulling out a chair for me. I sat down and they all sat too.

"Welcome Mr and Mrs Martinez," a waitress said politely with a smile. What was going on here and when did I become Mrs Martinez?

"I am Rose and I will be your waitress for this evening. I will be back with the orders shortly," she said with a smile before leaving.

"When did we order and why are we the only ones at this place?" I asked curiously.

"We prepared everything before. She knows our usual and I'm sure you will like it," Philip replied.

"I'm not eating what you've brought other girls here to eat," I responded firmly. They glanced at each other.

"What?"

"You said the usual, meaning you've been here before," I said.

"No, we didn't mean it like that," Julian laughed. I glared at him.

"We've been here before but not with a girl," Philip added.

I c****d my head to one side and asked skeptically. "With who then?"

"Our parents. We own this restaurant and we've only been here with them. You are the first person we are bringing here," Alex replied.

"Oh, sorry," I muttered in embarrassment.

"It's cool. We like that you are jealous," Philip said.

"Makes me want to pin you down on this table and do things you can't even imagine," Julian muttered. I gulped, staring into his dark orbs. I glanced at the table and lewd images ran through my mind. I pressed my thighs together feeling so hot. Was it me or did it just get ten times hotter in here? Luckily the waiter started bringing our food in.

"You good? You look flushed," Alex said with a smile.

"Mmmmm," I hummed and nodded in response. I didn't trust my voice at that moment. Rose placed different arrays of food on the table. Ranging from lasagna, chicken, burgers to pizza. The table was filled to the brim. From the appetizing look and aroma, I already knew it would be delicious. She poured each of us a glass of wine.

"I didn't know you had a family restaurant," I said as I twirled my lasagna on my fork.

"Yeah, we do. We've had it for years. There's a lot we don't know about each other despite knowing ourselves for years and we would like that to change," Julian said sincerely. Tonight wasn't what I was expecting at all. Every single thing they had done was heartwarming. I could really feel their sincerity.

"Why is it empty?" I inquired.

"Because we wanted to be alone with you," Philip replied. The light suddenly dimmed and the curtains in front of us were drawn. The faint slow music got louder and I could see the band behind it. After eating for a while, Philip said,

"May I have this dance?" he asked, walking up to me. I nodded and went to the dancing floor with him.

"I feel like there's something bothering you," he said, his arms around my waist and mine wrapped around his neck.

"How do you know that?" I asked in surprise.

"We do, we all just do," he responded. I sighed.

"Is this about the twins? Mason and Madison? You are worried because Alex is their father and you are with us?" he inquired. I looked up at him in surprise.

"I knew it. Look, Emma, it doesn't matter who their birth father is because we see them as our kids too. We already had this discussion with Alex, it's really nothing to be worried about. The moon goddess knows best why she mated the four of us together but I would say the day we found out about you, was the happiest day of our lives," he assured me with a smile. I smiled back feeling like a weight had just been lifted off my shoulders. I had truly been so worried about that issue. I didn't want any misunderstanding between them because of me. It was good that their brotherly bond was stronger than anything.

"Are those video games?" I asked excitedly, pointing towards a small section titled 'game room!

"Yes, can you play?" Julian asked. I gasped, placing my hand on my chest dramatically.

"I feel insulted. I bet that I can whoop all your asses," I vowed, grabbing a controller.

"And I bet you can't beat all three of us. We've been doing this longer than you know," Julian replied.

"Noise," I sighed. "How about grabbing a controller and showing me what you can do?"

Julian chuckled, shrugging off his jacket. He grabbed a controller.

"Are you ready?" he inquired.

"More like are you ready to get your a*s whooped," I said with a raise of my brow. The rest of the evening was filled with laughter and defeated sighs as I beat them all three times in a row. "Damn Emma, where did you learn this?" Alex asked.

"Mason and Madison. Have you forgotten we have genius kids," I bragged with a smile.

"How could we forget," Julian said.

"Maybe I should take lessons from them," Philip added. I laughed heartily. I couldn't remember the last time I truly felt this happy and at peace. I loved this evening and I truly wish it never ends.
