Olivia North

It's the morning of Dylan's third birthday. I woke up extra early to secretly make a crepe cake for Dylan to surprise him when he wakes up.  To make this crepe cake, I actually spent three days practicing, I've watched youtube videos on how to make this, which by the way, no one knew.

When I was coating the cake with yellow whipped cream, Esme entered the kitchen startling me.

"Oh I'm sorry sweetie, I didn't mean to scare you." She apologized right away. I smiled at her and greeted her.

"Good morning, Esme."

"What are you up to? It's still early for you to be awake." She looked at the wall clock and said, "It's only 6 in the morning, don't tell me you're making breakfast?" She asked and I showed her the crepe cake I was making.

"I'm making these for Dylan so that when he wakes up, he'll have a cake to blow." I smiled widely at her and she looked at the cake.

"That's cute." She said and gave me a motherly hug. When she released me I saw that her eyes were misting.

"Thank you, Olivia. Thank you for organizing everything for Dylan's birthday. Both of my son and grandson are lucky to have you." I hugged her again and said, "Nope, I am lucky to have them in my life." I released her and continued.

"Nick is a good man, he puts Dylan and I as his priority. He takes care of me, respects me, and he treats me as an ordinary person not the heiress that I am. Also, I am very grateful that he allowed me to be Dylan's mom, for me, being his mom is the best feeling ever. Even though I didn't conceive him, I treat him as my own. He's a very good kid, you and Nick have raised him well." I told her sincerely.

"He loves you, that's why. It is evident that you both love each other, you fill in each others flaws, Olivia." I widened my eyes when she said that Nick loves me. Oh my God, was it true? Had he finally fallen in love with me? Oh my God. But if it's true, why can't he say it to me? I know that Nick likes me but love... I'm just too speechless to deny and/or believe it.

"Now, what do you think they want for breakfast?" Esme asked and pulled me out of my reverie.

"We can make english breakfast if you want." I suggested and she agreed then we proceed to cook.

We finished preparing breakfast by 7:30am and we went upstairs to wake everyone up. I entered Nick's room and saw him sleeping soundly on his bed. I smiled and sat on his side of the bed and kissed his forehead then shook him a little to wake him up.

"Niccolo, wake up. Breakfast is ready." I brushed his hair with my fingers and kissed the tip of his nose. Then I felt his arms around me and he flipped me and hovered over me. He placed himself in between my thighs and leaned on the crook of my neck while both of his elbows were supporting his weight.

I, on the other hand, caressed his hair to his back while uttering, "Babe, wake up. We need to wake Dylan up, I made crepe cake for him."

He immediately looked at me like he was surprised. I raised my brows to question him but he just gave me a slow yet sensual kiss.

After the kiss, he lifted himself up from me and helped me sat up.

"What was that for?" I asked when he intertwined his left hand with my right hand.

He looked at my eye and I saw admiration in it.

"Thank you, Livy. Thank you for loving Dylan." He said and kissed the back of my hand. I smiled at him and held his face.

"He's our son, Niccolo. You know I will do anything and everything for him. He deserve the world, Nick." I said and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you." He thanked me again and hugged me.

I patted his back and spoke.

"Now let's go, before the icing in that crepe cake gets melted." I stood up and pulled him.

We went to Dylan's room and opened his door quietly, fortunately he was still sleeping soundly and cutely on his big boy bed. We made our way to him while Nick's lighting his birthday candle.

We took a sit on the edge of his bed and kissed his forehead, I shook him lightly and whispered, "Wake up, my love."

Dylan lazily opened his eyes and when he saw me, he smiled widely.

"Good morning, my sweet boy. Happy birthday!" I helped him sat up and Nick sang the happy birthday song. He looked at his dad happily and asked, "Can I blow the candle now?"

"Sweetie, wait for daddy to end the birthday song, okay. And then you can blow the candle." I whispered and Nick finished singing. Dylan excitedly blew the candle and he dipped his little finger to the icing and licked it.

"Happy birthday, my son. You're a big boy already." Nick told him and ruffled his hair but Dylan ignored him because of the icing he's licking.

Nick looked at me and I just chuckled.

"Dylan, that's enough. You'll have to eat proper breakfast first, okay. Grandma made you a big boy birthday breakfast for you to eat. Now let's go downstairs." I said and carried him.

"Thank you mommy, thank you daddy." He thanked us and we kissed the either sides of his chubby cheeks.

"You're welcome, my love." I replied and we headed downstairs.

After we had our breakfast, Nick told Dylan that we have a surprise for him that was in the garden. I looked at Nick nervously because what if he didn't like the minions-inspired design. I will be damned.

Nick held my hand and kissed the side of my head to assure me that our son will like it. I just sighed, Jesse on the other hand patted my back and mouthed, 'He will like it.' at me. I smiled and thanked her.

When we were near the garden, Nick carried Dylan and covered his eyes with his hand. Then we all counted to three and shouted surprise when Nick removed his hand.

He didn't have any reaction at first but when Nick asked him if he likes it, he nodded his head and smiled shyly. He put his head on Nick's shoulder and looked at us shyly. That was so adorable.

"Mommy made all this, Dylan." Nick said and Dylan smiled at me shyly and he put his forefinger in his mouth. That's how he is whenever he gets shy. He always put his finger inside his mouth.

I kissed his cheek and pinched it lightly.

"I'm glad you liked it, sweetie." I said and Nick put him on the ground. Dylan ran around excitedly together with Elly and went to the life-sized minion holding a life-sized banana stuffed toy we rented for today.

I smiled wildly and I felt Nick's arm around my shoulders and he whispered at me, "See, I told you he'll like it. No need to be stressed out." Then he kissed my cheek.

I pouted playfully at him and kissed him on his lips. We heard different reactions such as aww, yuck, that's enough, and Tom's chuckles. I looked at them and Esme smiled at me in a motherly way, then I saw Jesse also gave a kiss to Jericho while Tessa just rolled her eyes playfully and went to the kids who's playing with the giant stuffed toy.

After the food, photo booth, the jump place, the balloons, and basically everything was set up, I took Dylan to his room and got him ready. I dressed him first into comfortable black sweater and denim shorts before I let him wear his minion costume. Then after that, I asked Maria to watch him while I get ready.

When I entered Nick's room, I saw him talking on the phone while he's only wearing his white pants, I believe he was in the midst of putting his leather belt on when he picked up his phone.

I gawked at his sexy bod and I had the urge to run my hands on his body, from his toned chest to his abs, up to his waist and help him buckle his belt. I gulped and looked at him, I saw him smirking at me and I cleared my throat.

I was going to the bathroom when he snaked his arm around my waist. I was laughing and wiggling myself to get out of his hold until we made it to his balcony.

I stopped when I realized that we were in his balcony overlooking the garden and I saw the whole crew double checking everything and Dylan playing and laughing with Maria while she's blowing bubbles at him.

"Thank you for organizing this party, Olivia. Thank you for stressing out just to perfect this. Thank you for doing this for our son." Nick thanked me and I faced him.

"You didn't have to thank me, Nick. I did all of this to see those cute little smiles." I pointed at Dylan who's laughing and jumping excitedly when he saw Mrs. Knights.

Oh, they just arrived, ugh, that means the ugly parrot is also here. That's when I saw her, she patted Dylan's head and gave him a present. I pinned the wrapping paper design to my brain so that later I will throw the gift away.

"Still, thank you so much." He held my face and he inched his face closely until our nose were sticking with each other.

"You know, if you really are grateful, show me. Show me how grateful you are." I whispered seductively and roamed my hands at his chest to his abs. Nick smiled and captured my lips in no time. We made out on his balcony not caring if people will see us. I didn't care now, he is mine and I am his, we can do whatever we want.

We pulled away from each other for oxygen, I rest my head on his bare chest and hugged his torso. I looked at the garden and saw Rebecca glaring at me, I smirked at her and gave her wink then she stormed inside the house.

Ha! In your face, you ugly parrot.

************
The guests were slowly arriving and filling in the garden, Nick and I welcomed them one by one until my best friends arrived.

Jowee and Erin arrived at once, the former wore a yellow turtle neck top and partnered it with a high waisted blue jeans while the latter wore a yellow Versace baroque crop top and partnered it with a dark blue denim shorts, both of them were wearing sneakers.

When they saw us, Jowee squealed and hugged me without caring if she squished Dylan. Meanwhile, Erin gave Nick a hug.

"Oh my God, Olivia. You look so beautiful." She looked at me from head to toe and winked. Then she shifted her attention to Dylan and patted his head.

"Hello Dylan, happy birthday. I am aunt Jowee, your mommy's best friend. Here's your gift." Then she gave him an envelope which Dylan gladly took it and thanked her.

"Oh my God, he's cuter in person." Jowee said and took Dylan from me, Nick chuckled. Erin took it an opportunity to hug me.

"You look beautiful, Livy. And you did a great job decorating this party." Erin commended my work and I thanked her.

"All the stress have been paid off." Nick said while putting his arm on my shoulder and Erin agreed then Nick kissed my temple and excused himself to welcome other visitors.

Erin introduced herself to Dylan and took him from Jowee's arms. Jowee then took the envelope from my son's hand and gave it to me.

"For safekeeping." Jowee stated when she handed me the envelope. When I felt the envelope, it was kinda thick. Oh my, how much did she put in here. I looked at her questioning her and she just winked at me. Dylan wanted to be put onto the ground and Erin complied.

Then, Erin handed me another thick envelope telling me that it was her gift to Dylan. Oh geez, how much did they put in the envelope? I shook my head at them and put both of it inside my blazer pocket.

"Are you both serious? How much did you put in there?" I asked them both while ushering them to their table.

They both grinned at me and Jowee made a shhh gesture. I shook my head and rolled my eyes at them.

"Ugh. Whatever. Anyway, feel free to eat and do whatever you want. Let's have our picture taken at the photo booth later, okay. See you in a bit." I went to Nick and helped him welcome the guests.

Dad and Zac arrived minutes after my best friends got settled and Nick and I welcomed them together. I hugged my dad tightly and kissed his cheek.

"Hi dad. Have fun today but don't tire yourself, okay." I reminded him when he took a sit on the chair.

"Oh by the way, I asked Maria to cook food for you. I also ordered the servers to not give you food. Zachary, don't you dare give him food that's forbidden to him. If I caught you I will kill you." I threatened and he saluted.

"Let me get Dylan okay." I said and went searching for my son. I kept looking around the garden but didn't see Nick nor Dylan. I went inside the house and searched for them until I bumped into the ugliest person in this house today.

"Oops, I didn't see you there, Olivia." She said in a mocked tone and smirked. I just rolled my eyes at her and passed her by but she stopped me by holding my arm. I glared at her and I removed my arm from her hold.

"What the hell!" I said but she just smiled at me and her facial expression changed to anger.

"They may like you today but be careful because one day, you will wake up and learned that they already hate you, so seize it while it lasts." She said and walked away but I caught her arm and yanked her to face me. Who is she to threaten me? I am Olivia North, I should be the one threatening her.

"Listen to me you bitch. If you think I will back down to you, then you're wrong, so don't you ever think that those petty threats could scare me. I know what kind of a woman are you. You are insecure, opportunistic and desperate for attention that's why you stick yourself to the Knights family." I spoke with venom and looked her in the eye without releasing her and continued.

"You think that by doing so, Niccolo will finally notice you but instead, he went to the other town to build his business and never came back. Then when he came back, he brought a son and you being an opportunistic person, you took it a chance to get close to his son. So that when he sees you getting along with Dylan, he will think that you're a good mother to him." She wiggled her arm but I gripped it tighter, I didn't care if it will bruise her, I was writhing with anger so let me make her feel it.

"But I came into the picture. Nick and Dylan spent less time going to their hometown and spent more time with me. Then Dylan became so attached to me in a small amount of time to the point that he started calling me his mom. And the whole Knights family welcomed me and all your hard work came to waste so you targeted Mrs. Knights." She widened her eyes when I said the last words.

"Yes you ugly woman, I know you're the one who's backstabbing me and feeding Mrs. Knights all the negative stuff she knew about me. So, if you think that I will get scared by your threats, think twice and make sure that I won't render you speechless when I put you into your place." I released her arm abruptly and she was going to slap me but I quickly caught her hand.

"I've just been holding back on what you've been doing to me, Rebecca. You don't know who I truly am and I tell you honey, you don't want me to  explode because you won't like what will I do to you for I will make sure that you will pay for what you've done to me. You won't know how, you won't know when, but you will feel it." I slowly said to her, I looked her in the eye and made sure that my anger reflected my eyes and I pushed her hard until she stumbled and she gained her composure immediately.

She was going to say something but I beat her to it and pointed my index finger at her.

"And don't you dare touch me again, Rebecca because if you do, I will break your motherfuckin' arm." I warned her and went out to the garden.

I saw Dylan playing with her taekwondo mates at the jump place happily. Then I saw Niccolo laughing at what Alex's telling him. I sighed to myself, if I only knew that these two were here, I wouldn't have gotten inside and spoke to the ugly parrot but I'm glad that I put her to place.

I've been wanting to do that since the day I met her. Whew, it feels good.

I went to my family's table and dad was nowhere to be found, I was going to look for him but Jowee halted me by saying that Dad's talking with Tom.

I sat on the chair with a huff and after a while, I laughed. Jowee and Erin looked at me weirdly and I grinned to them then I said, "It's a good day to celebrate my son's birthday."

Nick was carrying Dylan when he approached me together with the event coordinator. They informed me that Dylan's birthday was about to start.

I nodded and smiled at the man to proceed then I kissed Dylan's cheek as well as Niccolo's lips.

The party started and we sat on our chairs.
