39-Love of a lifetime

Ethan was in the hotel room getting ready to leave and head back home, when his phone rang. It was Sadie wondering if he could stop by the house, that she had something important that she wanted to ask him.

"I can stop by, but it won't be for another few hours. I'm out of town right now, and getting ready to head back home. I can stop by when I get back to town." he tells her.

During his flight he kept wondering what was so important that Sadie wanted to talk to him about, hoping that she didn't find out that he was out looking for her dad, and wanting to talk with him. Hours later Ethan made it back and headed over to visit Sadie, Antonio was out with Grace and his parents signing paperwork for Grace's new home.

He walked in the house and Sadie was in the living room, she was done feeding the babies and laying them in their bassinets.

"What's up sweet cheeks?" he asked, walking towards her.

She turned around, asking him to sit and that she had something important to ask him. She sat down next to him, tucking her hair behind her ears, acting nervous. "I wanted to ask you... since I have no father in my life, and nobody really that close to me anymore, I was wondering if you would like to walk me down the aisle?"

He smiled at her, it made him feel warm inside and special. He was loving that she asked him to do that for her "I would be honored, you're like a sister to me." Ethan says, giving her a hug.

Sadie perked up, she felt nervous asking him since she hadn't really known him that long "Thank you so much, you have no idea what this means to me. I didn't think that you would do it." she says, releasing from his embrace.

"Now why wouldn't I do that?"

"I don't know, maybe cause you're in no relation to me?" she says, shrugging her shoulders.

Ethan shook his head "Sadie... you're already family to me. Who cares if you're not blood? Look at Antonio, we're not blood and I still look at him as if he were my brother." Ethan paused for a moment "I do have a question for you."

"What's that?"

"What would you do if your father ever came around looking for you?"

Sadie shrugged her shoulders "I don't know, I never really thought about it, he left my mom when he found out that she was pregnant. I guess I would have a lot of questions for him. Why?"

"Just curious... you've got your mom back in your life, and I just wasn't sure what you thought about if your dad were to ever want to be in your life."

"Well... I've never considered him my dad. Just a sperm donor really, I probably would give him a chance to explain himself, I look at it that he was 10 years older than her, he should have been more of an adult. My mom was 18 when she got pregnant with me."

Ethan took it all in of what she was telling him, hoping that Antonio was doing the right thing. Sadie stood up and walked over to the babies when they started crying, checking on them.

Ethan looked at the time, getting antsy to be home "Well I should get going, I haven't been home for a couple days, and Melissa has been at my house waiting for me. I'm sure she's in a not so happy mood." he laughed.

"Is she ever?" Sadie asked, smirking.

Two months had gone by and it's the day of their wedding. Antonio flew everyone to Hawaii to share their special day. Giorgia and Grace helped Isabella and Gabriella get ready, while Sadie was getting herself ready.

Sadie stood in front of the mirror with so many emotions running through her mind, when she put her veil on, she started tearing up. She couldn't believe that she was getting married, feeling sad that she didn't have a father to walk her down the aisle and hand her away. She then cheered up when she thought of Antonio, picturing his smile, and his beautiful blue eyes sparkling at her. She was in heaven, and feeling that she was marrying the man of her dreams, a man she never thought existed.

Grace walked in the room wanting to be the first person to see her daughter in her wedding dress. She looked at Sadie, and was in awe. She was dressed in a white silk chiffon dress featuring a sweetheart neckline and a long train, that she had specially made by Armani.

"Wow, you look really beautiful. I never thought I would ever see my baby get married." Grace says giving her a hug. "Antonio is a very lucky man."

"Thanks mom." She says, hugging her back tighter.

"Are you ready to do this? It's almost time to head to the beach." she says, grabbing Sadie's bouquet. Grace looked at the bouquet, and widened her eyes. "Wow, this is gorgeous." Her bouquet was all white, filled with gardenias and roses.

"I'm more than ready, where are the girls?"

"They're outside with Giorgia and the babies, they wanted to pick flowers." Grace says, helping her with her train.

When they walked outside, Sadie was in heaven when she saw the girls. She loved the flower headpieces that were made for them and couldn't wait for them to walk down the aisle before her.

"Look momma, we picked some flowers for you." Isabella said smiling, handing her the flowers.

"Thank you, but we have to get down over to the beach now. Remember what you're supposed to do with the petals, and make sure you don't lose our rings." Sadie instructed them.

"We know." Gabriella says grinning, grabbing Isabella's hand and walking down the hill to get to the beach.

The more Sadie walked down to the beach, the more nervous she was becoming, hoping that everything turned out as planned.

Ethan was talking with Antonio when he saw Sadie walking down to the beach, he saw her dress and veil blowing around in the wind, and looked at Antonio. "Don't look behind you, Sadie is coming and it's bad luck to see her beforehand." he says, pushing him to start walking.

"That's not fair, you get to see her before I do." Antonio pouted.

Ethan laughed, and patted his back "Tough cookies, you know the drill, you've been through it before." He continued to chuckle while grabbing Antonio's shoulders, pushing him to keep on walking. "Now go where you're supposed to be, and I'll go get Sadie. You'll see her soon enough, it's about to start any minute."

Antonio walked over to the arch, while Ethan walked over to Sadie, grabbing her to walk her down the sandy aisle.

Sadie and the girls got to the beach, and giggled when she saw the sign that they had out for the guests. It read: Wedding this way, leave your shoes behind, and bury your toes in the sand, just like the bride to be. She wanted a barefoot wedding, and didn't feel like wearing shoes on the sand. She figured the guests would enjoy it, and would want to join in, if they wanted to.

Ethan walked up to the girls, giving them instructions "Are you girls ready? Now when the music starts, walk slowly up to your dad while dropping the flowers OK?" he says, smiling and touching their little button noses.

"We're ready." Gabriella says.

Ethan looked at Sadie, happy and with love. "Antonio is so lucky to have met you, and I'm glad that he did, if it weren't for you, I don't know where he would be right now. I hope that you realize that you're a special person, and I know that Harlow saw that in you as well."

"Thank you, Ethan, you're a true friend, a great brother and someone I can trust." Sadie smiled, kissing him on the cheek.

"By the way you look gorgeous, are you sure you're that committed to Antonio?"

She giggled "Of course I'm committed to Antonio." she says, playfully shoving him.

"Are you sure you don't want to kick him to the curb, and run away with me? There's still a little time to get out of here." he grinned a devilish grin, and laughed.

Sadie laughed "Nice try, what would Melissa say?"

"Damn you had to bring her name up, my chances with you are ruined again." he snickered, grabbing a hold of her arm "Let's do this." He got ready to walk her down to Antonio, and stood behind the girls.

He leaned forward "Start walking, you two." Ethan tells them, both watching them drop the flowers as they walked towards Antonio.

The girls smiled the entire time, and posed for the camera guy that was following them, and taking pictures as they walked.

Ethan was just getting ready to start walking her down the aisle, and looked at her quick "Just remember beauty fades and so will his eyesight." he says with a grin. Before she could say anything, he started walking her down the aisle.

Antonio stood there watching Ethan walk Sadie towards him, his heart started beating faster the closer they got to him, and getting more excited to say his I do to her.

Ethan and Sadie stopped when they got to the arch "Who gives this bride away?" the officiant asked.

"That would be me." Ethan says, kissing Sadie's cheek, and handed her off to Antonio.

Antonio and Sadie both looked at each other, not keeping their eyes off each other. They finally looked at the officiant when he started talking. They listened to what he had to say, he then looked at the two of them. "I understand you have your own vows for each other, if you could join hands we will start with Antonio's vows."

Antonio looked at Sadie smiling, melting as he looked at her "You are the culmination of a dream come true. I still can't believe that I'm standing here about to start a wonderful life together with you, you're my best friend, my greatest miracle, the mother of my children and the sexiest woman that I know, and love the most in this entire world."

Sadie couldn't help but chuckle when Antonio said sexiest woman, she was all smiles when he finished with his vows. The officiant then asked Sadie to say her written vows to Antonio.

Sadie looked at Antonio smiling, wanting to take him right there in front of everyone, she felt like she was drooling the more she looked at him "You fill my life with meaning, thank you for welcoming me into your heart. I love that you're the father of my children and that I will be spending the rest of my life with you, I love the thought of growing old with you, and I'm looking forward to fighting through challenges and embracing joy from this moment until the end of time."

Gabriella and Isabella handed the rings to Antonio and Sadie.

They exchanged their I do's, and placed the rings on each other's fingers.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife." the officiant says to them "You may now kiss your bride."

Antonio cupped the back of Sadie's head, and placed a soft passionate kiss on her lips. He couldn't control himself, and started to kiss her hungrily and urgently. He stopped himself before laying her onto the sand and having his way with her, he pulled away from her, looking at her with a smile that was going from ear to ear.

"Non vedo l'ora di toglierti questo vestito e farti l'amore tutta la notte"

Sadie giggled, not knowing what he said, and turned around to face their guests. Antonio picked her up, and carried her bridal style down the sandy aisle, with the girls following behind.

Antonio set her down, kissing her again "What did you say to me back there?" Sadie asked, she thought whatever he said to her was extremely sexy by the way he said it, and was curious as to what it meant.

"I said, I cannot wait to get this dress off of you and make love to you all night long." he groaned, wrapping his arms around her waist, kissing her quick before the guests walked up to them.

While shaking guests' hands, Sadie noticed a couple in line, she didn't think she had ever seen before. She was curious to who they were, and looked at Antonio pulling down on his shoulder to get to his ear, and whispered to him.

"Who are those people back there?" she asked pointing to the older couple.

He stood back up and looked at the couple she was questioning, he recognized who they were and smiled once he saw them "When they get up to us, you'll get to meet them and find out who they are."

Ethan, Melissa and the girls stood nearby waiting for the Antonio and Sadie to finish greeting and thanking everyone for coming. Ethan grinned when he saw the familiar couple approaching the bride and groom, and started walking towards them.

Antonio placed his hand on the small of Sadie's back, when the older couple approached them, hoping that she wouldn't get upset. As they approached, Sadie studied the older couple, trying to figure out if she knew who they could be.

"Congratulations you two." the woman says to them.

"Thank you." Sadie smiled, shaking her hand.

The man looked at Sadie, and tears began forming in his eyes. He wiped away the tears, then wiped his hand on his pants "Congratulations, you are absolutely beautiful." he says, choking up.

Sadie looked up at Antonio and back over at the man, confused. "Do I know you?"

"No... but you should know who I am, and I'm so sorry."
