Elizabeth POV
"According to Louis, Mary-Kate and Ashley and him will be here within the next half an hour, everything is sorted out. They have no idea about this brunch party is what he had said", mom says as she sat down on the couch beside me.
I just smiled and nodded a little as I knew they HATED, absolutely despised surprise parties of any sort. I wasn't too fond of them myself either, but I would just put up a fake appreciation for it. The twins, god forbid they can remember how to act.
"Mom are you sure this is wise? You know how they both are?", I ask as I looked at my mom as I noticed Stefania stood up from beside me before saying, "Antonio is around the block, he's parking at our house and walking over".
"Okay baby, but mom seriously do you think this will go well?", I state as I looked at Stefania then my mom before my mom shrugged.
"They are what, thirty seven years old on Wednesday? They need to grow up and learn to just accept that surprise parties are the easiest when it comes to them", mom says and I rolled my eyes as I knew it was the truth in a way.
Planning parties with both of the twins is difficult, they both either want the same thing or want polar opposite things. So mom usually just does surprise brunches, lunches, or dinners as a party. But even then it's hard to get a read on them, thankfully we have Louis who has been feeding us information on what they wanted.
If it weren't for Ashley's husband we'd probably just be ordering take out instead of making a full buffet of all their favourite things. I won't lie though, I was mostly excited to see my nephew Otto. I love my sisters to death, but baby fever is in full swing and I am mentally counting down the days until we have our girls.
I hummed as I heard the door open before it shut again, then I heard Antonio's laugh coming down the hall. He made his way into the living room and smiled, we kept it intimate today. Only inviting family and Antonio. Antonio was invited only because he was coming to Los Angeles to check out the club, meet with Jeff and discuss the plans for the next few months.
. . .
"SURPRISE", we all yelled in unison making the twins roll their eyes at us, I laughed a little as Ashley carried Otto towards the couch.
"Hey preggo", she greets as Mary-Kate fell into a conversation with mom about not wanting to make a big deal about their birthday's this year.
"Hey", I greet back as I sat up a little more before she handed me Otto and I gently held onto him.
"So how's the pregnancy going?", she asks as she tried to make conversation and ignore the fact that we threw them a party.
"It's not so bad, it'll probably kick in worse when we move home to Palermo. But currently it's not bad", I say as she nodded a little.
"You look very pregnant Elizabeth", Mary-Kate says and I rolled my eyes before saying, "Not as pregnant as Florence, her bump is much bigger than mine. Sometimes I wonder if there's a hidden baby in her belly due to the size comparison of our bumps and considering she's a week behind me".
"That would be interesting and I think they'd freak out if they had triplets without knowing", Ash says and I nodded before Stefania said, "They would freak out at first, but probably and most likely about not having another name option. They didn't pick names officially until they had the genders".
"What're they having again?", Mary-Kate questions as she looked at me curiously and I smiled as I replied, "One of each. They chose names that are based on astrology".
