The Billionaire And His One Night Stand

New York, Mia

Today was the long-awaited day of the gender reveal party. I stood in my room, surrounded by an array of dresses and outfits, getting ready for the celebration. Sebastian could arrive at any moment to pick me up and bring me to the venue, and I wanted to look my best for this special occasion.

Bella had been tirelessly preparing since early morning, making sure every detail was in place. Just a while ago, she had left for the venue to oversee the caterers and ensure that everything would run smoothly. I knew I could count on her to make the event unforgettable.

Excitement bubbled within me, but there was also a tinge of sadness that lingered in the background. Neither of our parents would be present at the gender reveal, a fact that tugged at my heart. I hadn’t wanted Sebastian’s parents there due to the forced marriage and the troubling comments I had overheard from his mother. Their presence would have only added tension to the day.

Similarly, my own family’s absence was a reflection of the strained relationship we had. It wasn’t as simple as them not liking me; it was a complex web of issues that I wished could be resolved. But, for today, I had decided to focus on the people who did care about us, our friends who had become like family, and the love between Sebastian and me.

The guest list was predominantly filled with friends, those who had supported us throughout our journey, and who had celebrated our love. It was a mix of familiar faces, all gathered to share in the joy of revealing the gender of our little one.

I glanced at myself one last time in the mirror as I slipped into a beautiful dress, its colors a secret nod to the gender we were about to discover. I wanted to look my best, not just for the guests but for Sebastian. Today was a day of happiness, of celebration, and I intended to savor every moment.

Just as I was applying the finishing touches to my makeup, my phone chimed with a text message. I picked it up to see a message from Sebastian. He had arrived.

A smile spread across my face as I read the message, my heart swelling with anticipation. I replied that I’d be ready in a moment and hurriedly gathered my things. The room seemed to glow with excitement, and I felt a rush of happiness and nerves as I stepped out the door.

Sebastian was waiting for me just outside, his eyes lighting up when he saw me. He looked handsome as ever in his suit, and his smile was radiant. I couldn’t help but blush under his gaze.

“Wow, Mia,” he said, his voice filled with admiration, “you look incredible.”

I beamed at him, feeling the love and warmth that always washed over me when he looked at me that way. “Thank you,” I replied, a hint of bashfulness in my tone. “You don’t look so bad yourself.”

He chuckled, offering me his arm. “Shall we go, my love?”

As Sebastian opened the car door for me, I was greeted by a stunning sight a bouquet of beautiful roses, their vibrant colors and delicate petals taking my breath away. I turned to look at him, my eyes filled with surprise and gratitude.

“They are so beautiful,” I said, my voice tinged with awe.

He smiled warmly at me, his eyes reflecting the affection in his heart. “Just like you.”

The sweetness of his words made my heart flutter as I accepted the bouquet, their fragrance filling the car with a scent of love and anticipation. With the roses held close, I settled into the car, ready to embark on this unforgettable journey.

Sebastian, ever the gentleman, began to drive us to the venue, which was just a fifteen-minute ride from our home. The excitement in the air was palpable, as we were about to reveal the gender of our baby, a moment we had been eagerly awaiting.

“Are you nervous?” I asked, my eyes meeting his in the rearview mirror.

He shrugged with a hint of uncertainty in his expression. “Not really, maybe a little.”

I couldn’t help but chuckle. It was an answer that mirrored my own feelings a mix of excitement and apprehension, wondering if we were about to welcome a boy or a girl into our lives.

“Do you think it’s going to be a boy or a girl?” I inquired. I truly didn’t have a preference; all I wished for was a healthy baby. But as is often the case, that was the answer parents gave, wasn’t it?

Sebastian’s eyes were filled with tenderness as he glanced at me. “Doesn’t matter,” he said with a soft smile. “As long as it’s a healthy baby.”

I couldn’t help but nod in agreement. “Actually, same,” I replied. “Health is the most important thing.”

As the car pulled into the venue, we were met with a breathtaking sight. The space had been transformed into a realm of enchantment and delight. Balloons in shades of pink and blue adorned the walls and ceilings, a testament to the mystery that would soon be unveiled. Flowers of all kinds, luscious bouquets of roses, and floral arrangements adorned the tables, their fragrance filling the air with a sweet and welcoming scent.

Bella and Kieran, my brother, stood at the entrance, beaming with excitement. They were our hosts for this extraordinary occasion, and their eyes were filled with joy as they greeted us.

“Come, come!” Bella exclaimed, her enthusiasm contagious. “We are so excited to reveal the gender with you!”

We followed them into the venue, and the warmth and excitement of our friends and loved ones enveloped us. Hugs, smiles, and words of anticipation greeted us as we made our way through the gathering.

As Bella took the microphone, the venue fell into a hushed silence, all eyes on her. She had prepared a memorable event, and the sense of wonder and excitement was almost palpable.

“Welcome, everyone,” Bella began, her voice carrying a blend of warmth and joy. “Today, we are gathered here to celebrate something truly extraordinary, the revelation of a new life. Mia and Sebastian, we have all shared in your journey, and now it’s time to unveil a new chapter in your lives.”

The room was filled with expectant smiles and eager anticipation, our friends and loved ones standing by our side as we approached this momentous occasion.

The energy in the room was electric as Bella continued, “But before we reveal the gender, we want to take a moment to acknowledge the love and support that surrounds Mia and Sebastian. They are about to become parents, and this child is already surrounded by a family that loves and cares for them deeply.”

I looked at Sebastian, a warmth in my heart at the words Bella spoke. We truly were blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives.

With a graceful flourish, Bella signaled to a large, decorative box in the center of the room. “And now, the moment we’ve all been waiting for!”

As she opened the box, balloons in shades of pink and blue floated out, and our friends and loved ones watched in rapt attention, awaiting the surprise that would determine the future of our family.

I glanced at Sebastian, his hand intertwined with mine, and our eyes locked in a moment of shared love and anticipation.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Bella, with a twinkle in her eye and an enchanting smile, approached the final box. The room was filled with an air of heightened anticipation, our loved ones leaning forward in their seats. As she unveiled the contents of the box, a burst of blue balloons floated out, dancing in the air.

“It’s a boy!” Bella exclaimed, and the room erupted with joyous cheers and applause. Sebastian and I shared an excited, knowing look, our hearts brimming with happiness.
