Chapter 341 - 341 That Should Be Me

"I don't want a prince on a white horse. I want a weirdo who will make me laugh and take me on adventures" --- Brooke Hampton; Ravenwolf

As the new morning and the event for the celebration of New Year, everybody is busy preparing the tent where the celebration will be held, from the color motifs, tables, and chairs to where the guests will be sitting, flowers, lightings, sounds, music, and the entire program.  ​​

Louie woke up very early as he does his routine exercises inside their room, the push-ups, sit-ups, and planking is mostly his routine workout exercise.

He woke up with a very energetic aura as for today he could hold his Luna's hands as they will be dancing and even if it is for a while he still wants to treasure it. He made a mental note that he will tell her how much he loves her and still loves her, he will also tell her that even though it is very much impossible for them to be together, he will stay by her side protecting her from any harm that Sofia might do to her. He knew that he would not be Luna's prince charming for it was Viscount Francois's job right now, but he will be his "KNIGHT" that will protect her from any harm and not allow anyone to bully her anymore especially his children. He will also not allow anyone to hurt them, especially Luna, he will just stay behind the scenes for her. "God, I wish that should be me who is spending this kind of occasion with my Luna and my children. I wish that I didn't make the wrong decision that I made back then" Louie said to himself as he got up after he did a two minutes planking.

Louie just finished his workout and went immediately to the bathroom and after showering, when Ethan and Kim entered his bedroom. "It seems that there is someone very excited for today's event," Ethan said as he took a seat on the couch. Louie chuckled as he dries his hair with the towel in his hand and Kim is sulking beside Ethan as he also sat beside their friend. Louie looks at Kim, who is still sulking beside Ethan as he raised his brows and looks at Ethan with an asking look towards his other friend. 

Ethan shook his head and shrugged his shoulders, for he also didn't know why Kim does is sulking like a kid who didn't get his favorite candy or toy from his mother. "What's wrong lover boy? Why are you sulking like a kid that has been not granted a special wish by the tooth fairy" Louie asks his friend. Kim sighs very deeply and Ethan chuckled at the way he acts. "Get dressed first Louie, then I will tell you why I am acting like this" Kim replied. Louie laughs as he wants to make fun of his friend who looks like a lost puppy in the wilderness. Ethan chuckled for he didn't expect that their playboy friend seems lost in love with Pearl who didn't fall for his charm. 

Louie immediately gets dressed in jeans, a black shirt, and sneakers for the event will still hours away, he made a mental note of the things he needs to accomplish this morning. They still have to eat breakfast and after their meal he wants to see his children for he misses them so much, he also needs to see Viscount Francois for he needs to request something from his ex-wife's husband and he is already praying for him to grant it and also he will talk to Luna's adoptive brothers and other friends to let them know that his intentions are pure and he will do no harm towards her. 

"I am ready, so we must eat first, and after let's resolve your lost heart," says Louie to Kim and Ethan laugh so loudly that earned pouting mouth from Kim. The three gorgeous men went out of their respective rooms like a penthouse and immediately went to the dining room where everyone was slowly arriving for their breakfast. The twins greet Louie and his friends and told Louie that he can sit in the middle of them, Louie was surprised, but Kim and Ethan stared at the father and children but they have this hunch that the twins might plot something towards their friend. "Good Morning Daddy 2, I do hope you slept well last night," says Dawn. Louie smiled at his daughter, "Yes, my dear Princess, and Good Morning to you too" he replied. 

Louie looks at his son and smiled, Winter just nods as a gesture of greeting him. "He is really my son. He is stubborn as a bull just like me" Louie told said to himself as he can see his own self to his son Winter. "Good morning, Mr. Chen and friends" Viscount Francois greeted them as he helps Luna took her seat beside him. Louie and his friends look at the couple and smiled. After everyone took their respective seats, everyone has begun to eat silently, as they seem watching each other's gestures. 

Dimitri coughs as he wants to kill the silence at the dining table. He and Scarlet are sitting at the head of the long table together with Luna and Francois. "The celebration for tonight's event will start at six o'clock pm. The copy of the programs that the twins' and Princess Rosela prepared will be given to you all by the right-hand guys after the meal. If you have suggestions and want to do something… I mean to add something you can tell it directly to the twins or any members of the right-hand guys or Pearl." Dimitri informs them.

"But.… Princess Isabele will be exempted from any activities with which she is having trouble with her cravings and also Yuan. But they will attend the New Year's celebration," Francis added. 

"Uncle DJ, we can add something as long as it will not bring any harm to anyone or everyone?" Dawn suddenly asks, Dimitri, smiled at her and nods his head. "Sweetheart, no any mischievous kind of jokes. Your grandmother and your great-grandparents are also here to celebrate this occasion with us. You must not play any jokes, okay" Luna reminded Dawn and Winter for she knew what is playing on her child's mind. "Little buns, you better follow what your mother has said. Remember, you will have a new playmate which is now growing inside her tummy. So you can't bring any stress on her" Alexie informs the two kids since he also knew that they might plot something against Louie and his friends. 

"Okay, but we will not do anything naughty tonight, we will just want to ask if we could have a picture with Daddy 2. I mean Mom, me, Winter and him; so that he could have a memorable picture with us as his family that he didn't take good care of and maybe we could also include him…. I mean him and his friends to our group pictures" Dawn asks with her puppy eyes towards Dimitri and the rest of the group. Louie was surprised to hear the sudden request of his daughter to Dimitri and both Ethan and Kim choked.

"Of curse my little bun, the four of you will have a picture and we will give copies to him" Francois answered that earned a squeeze of his hand by Luna.  Francois looks at his wife and smiled, "You are mine now my Queen, no one can break us apart. Giving in the request of our little bun is simply giving also Louie Chen a chance for him to feel what he has given up. It's just a picture and I know Louie Chen will treasure it in his heart. Others may be offended by that kind of request but me… No, I am not, for we are already bonded by new life inside your tummy and I know that I am now that present and the future in your life. I know you don't want a prince on a white horse, but instead, you want a weirdo who will make you laugh and take you on adventures, and my Queen I know that it was me that weirdo that you have been asking for" Francois says and gave a peck on Luna's lips in front of everyone. 

"Thank you, my King, for understanding" Luna whispered, but she blushes for all eyes were on them, and when they both glance at the twins they've seen that Louie's hand was already on their eyes. 

"Get a room for that lovey-dovey, we are eating breakfast! And hello! There are others here that don't have a love life!" Kim suddenly exclaimed that earned a peal of laughter to everybody.
