After the wedding between Julia and Lucius had been held, he had gone to Rome as things were needed to be settled with the senate. After hours of speaking they come to a conclusion, Lucius was no more was to be trusted as usual even the people loved him. He were still allowed to be pro-consul, but his decisions would no longer be counted in the senate house. They knew the people loved him, therefor could not do much against it. After it was spoken, he returned to his old home. There he waited for his wife to come, as he wanted her to see Rome once before they would move in together to live in Etrusca forever.
When he finally heard the news of Julia entering the gates of Rome, he prepared the people to greet her with a warm welcome. At the door of his house he stood waiting, seeing her approach as beautiful she were. It was good to finally have his wife there, even danger lingered around. Since the senate did not trust him, he quickly had got to know spies were sent out to look after him. Everyone that tried to enter his home without permission, was killed or sent away. As Julia stepped out and came toward him, a smile was seen upon his face. Her dress were pretty, greater then any other dress he earlier had seen her wear. However in kind words he spoke, looking at her with great interest as glad he were to have her there."Welcome to Rome, I hope you had a fine journey."

Julia put up a smile when she found Lucius coming towards them, and stopped walking further into the house for the moment. Rather did she want him to guide her around, introduce her to the servants and people around and so spare some time for her. "Lucius, I'm glad to see you. Indeed, we had a very fine journey, even although it was unexpectedly long." She told him, and kept the small distance between them. In the meantime, all the servants and guards, who had followed her, arrived inside, save the few who now took care of the carriage.
After one moment of looking in each other's eyes, Julia turned to a lady not far behind her, who had a small boy in her arms. Him she now took into her own arms, taking particularly care of his head, and looking at him lovingly, before she turned back to Lucius. "Hasn't he grown? It has been a while since you saw him last." She spoke, keeping the picture up of Lucius being the boy's loving father.

As Julia responded and said the journey was longer then expected, he had to smile. It was funny that she believed so, as he himself thought of it as short, probably cause he had traveled a lot more then her. In return to what she said, he simply nodded but watched the servants as they went inside alone or with things Julia had taken with. However sonly he turned to watch her again, thinking she was beautiful. As the boy arrived in the hands of Lucius wife, he quickly remembered it was not his. Although he stood calm and smiled, wanting to show the others that he was the true father. It was nice to see that the child had grown, but also it made him worried.
"Hehe, shall say the boy surely has grown."He said kindly, as he picked him up gentle and took it in his own arms. Hopefully Julia didn't mind, but he could see how protective she was toward the child. Curiously and glad he watched the boy, holding him close so he would not fall. It was a weird thought that he could believe a small child like the boy would become dangerous with time, at least he would try to avoid any bloodshed to happen. Lucius destiny was uncertain, but always hope would remain that he could live a life filled with glory and honor.

"Really, well it have been some weeks since you have seen him last." Julia replied, however when Lucius picked up the boy so quickly from her arms, she had to oppress the disagree with his actions, and her mistrust and dislike towards him. After all, they had to make a beautiful couple towards Rome, to make all Romans believe they were proud parents. She hated all this acting and wanted her normal life and true feelings back, but it seemed it now had become impossible.
"So, what have you planned for us both, Cassius and me, during our time in Rome?" She tried to keep the conversation up. "Do you want to show me the house?" Obviously Lucius was too far in thoughts about 'their' son to think that the servants were standing around them, not knowing what to do, what he would order them to, neither did she know.

Close Lucius held the child in his hands, but listened to Julia as she spoke. Slightly he nodded in return and answered, with his face turned toward her."Well, I believe I could show you both around. It is lots to see here in Rome, as well many to meet. I am sure the senators would like to meet you, perhaps others also."As he said that, Lucius turned and started to walk further inside the house. It was large as many rooms it kept, on the right side was all the bedrooms, while on the left were the kitchen and rooms to the servants. In the middle there was place to eat, a swimming pool and a hall for feasting and reserving news.
When he walked further into the room with the child in his hands, he hoped for his wife to follow. Hopefully he could show her around while holding the boy, however lots there was to see. The first place he lead her, was where he and his family most ate food. It was in the middle of the house, decorated with chairs to sit on as well some sort of tables to place the food upon. Around was also flowers and status, showing how rich the Silvio family truly was that could afford to such expensive things.
