Epilogue

Lisa 's POV

Zack immediately scooped me up in his arms and carried me to the car.

Kostas, Yannis, Stefano, and Alice followed us.

Yannis opened the door for Zack so he could place me in the back seat and sat beside me. Yannis rushed to the driver seat and started the car. Kostas sat beside him in the passenger seat. I held tightly to Zack's hand as I felt pain from the contractions.

I inhaled and exhaled slowly, trying to see if the pain lessened, but it didn't. It did help calm me a little.

"Zack!" I screamed, squeezing his hand tightly when I felt a sharp contraction hit me.

"Drive faster, Yannis!" Zack shouted at Yannis, anxiously.

"Gynaika mou, inhale and exhale," Zack said trying to calm me down. "We're almost there." He caressed my arm or my back, anywhere he could reach with the hand that I wasn't holding onto to provide some comfort.

A few minutes later, I felt another sharp pain. "Ahhh!" I screamed again.

As soon as we arrived at the hospital, Zack carried me in his arms through the door and was shouting at nurses that I was going into labor.

Zack's POV

Once a nurse came to me with a strolling bed to carry Lisa into a room, I was left to wait in the sitting room.

I knew the doctor was making sure everything was alright and that Lisa was ready to go into labor. But this didn't make me feel any less nervous and worried.

I paced back and forth in the sitting room as my father waited by my side to receive any news with me.


I finally saw the doctor coming towards me and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why don't you take her to the delivery room?"

"There's nothing to worry about, Mr. Petropoulos," she said. "She's only six centimeters dilated."

"And?" I interrupt.

What does that even mean?

"She's only in her early stages of labor," she said.

"Then why isn't she in the delivery room?" I asked.

"She has to be at least ten centimeters dilated before she is in actual labor," she said. "Only then, can we take her to the delivery room."

I breathed deeply and asked, "Can I see her?"

"Yes."

I went to Lisa's room.

Once I walked in, I saw her laying in the bed as tears fell from her eyes.

"Gynaika mou."

I walked to her and grabbed her hand. I stroked her hair and kissed her forehead as I whispered soothing words to ease her pain.

I hoped it worked.

Every hour or so, the doctor would come in and check Lisa.

At midnight, her contractions increased in pain and speed.

"Mr. Petropoulos wait outside, please," a nurse told me. I nodded and walked out.

My mother, Marina, Stefano and Alice were here. My mother brought me clean clothes.

I quickly changed my clothes and came back to wait with them.

The doctor was still in the room as I watched from outside through the window.

She told the nurses something and walked out.

I approached her and asked, "What is going on?"

"She's ready," she said. "We're taking her to the delivery room," she said.

"I'm going to be in the delivery room," I immediately said and left no room for argument. I was going to be with Lisa.

She nodded.

Lisa's POV

As I lay in bed in the delivery room, Zack held my hand and stroked my hair.

I was ecstatic that he was here with me.

"Push again," the doctor said. "I can see his head."

I pushed again as I squeezed Zack's hand with mine.

A few seconds later, I heard a baby cry.

Tears of happiness flew down my cheeks as I heard my baby cry. Zack kissed my forehead.

I felt something wet when he did and when I looked at him, he was crying too.

"Thank you, gynaika mou," he said with tears of joy in his eyes.

The nurse placed my baby boy in my arms. He grabbed my finger while sobbing.

I softly stroked his cheek and kissed him all over his face.

"My little boy, my Dimitris."

Zack stroked his little hand, staring at him mesmerized.

I knew that Zack wanted to hold Dimitris in his arms, so I placed him in his arms.

I could tell that Zack was very careful with him and didn't want to hurt him.

He kissed his forehand as he whispered, "My baby, my precious one."

Zack looked at Dimitris in amazement.

Zack lifted his head and met my eyes.

"I love you, gynaika mou," he said.

"I love you too."

Four Months Later

Zack's POV

Today, I was marrying Lisa.

We decided to get married in Santorini, a special place for us.

I wore a black tuxedo and looked at myself in the mirror. I was nervous and excited.



Lisa's POV

I was walking with my father. The man who I was madly in love with was standing in front of me.

Zack wrapped his arms around me as I wrapped my arms around his neck. He brushed his lips against mine and then kissed me passionately.

Everyone applauded us.

"I love you, Mrs. Petropoulou," he said, smiling happily.

"I love you too, Mr. Petropoulos."

Zack grabbed Dimitris from my mother's arms.

I placed a soft kiss on Dimitris's cheek while he was staring at me with his beautiful blue eyes.

"My kiss?" Zack said, furrowing his eyebrows playfully. I laughed. "An adult kiss," he added with a wink and grin.

I laughed and kissed his lips.

I kissed my baby and gave him back to my mother.

Zack and I would be staying at his house in Santorini for a week. Then, we were going to the Maldives.

It would be our first vacation with our little boy.

Zack was waiting for me in the car.



When I got in the passenger's seat, he looked over at me.

"Are you ready, Mrs. Petropoulou?" he asked, smirking with an arrogant smirk.

"Yes, Mr. Petropoulos," I said, grinning.

A Week Later

I was laying on the sun lounger, watching Zack and Dimitris.

Zack was holding him tightly in water. Zack had said that he wanted to teach Dimitris how to swim. But of course, Dimitris was only splashing water with his feet and giggling like the baby he was.

Zack walked closer to me, holding Dimitris in his arms. I sat up as he sat on the sun lounger beside me.

"My baby boy."

I kissed Dimitris's cheek. I held him and dried him with a towel.

Zack stroked my cheek, smiling. I smiled back.

He leaned closer and kissed my lips.

"Ahh!" I screamed in pain. Dimitris had pulled my hair.

Zack and I pulled back. I released my hair from his grip.

"Hey, buddy she's mine," Zack said to Dimitris playfully. I chuckled.

We grabbed our things and walked on the beach.

Zack had his arm wrapped around me as he held Dimitris in his other arm. I wrapped my arm around his waist, placing my head on his shoulder.

"I love you," I said, looking into his eyes.

"I love you too, gynaika mou," he said and brushed his lips against mine.


The End.
