Chapter 7 - Julliet
Sophie was speechless. Not only had her presumptions over Charlies reaction been one hundred percent wrong but his weirdness around her over the past week had been because he had been wanting to marry her. What if he really didn't care that she had just dropped the biggest bombshell he could've imagined. What if? She looked into his eyes and saw that his emotions mirrored her own.
"Yes" She whispered before throwing her arms around Charlie and crying once more.
"I was hoping you'd say yes," Charlie chuckled.
"I love you Charlie." Sophie whispered honestly.
"As I love you." Charlie whispered in her ear before kissing her.
A few minutes later Charlie pulled back from Sophie and they both sat down on the couch.
"Why ever did you get so upset about being pregnant?" Charlie asked.
"Well," Sophie started, dabbing at her drying eyes with her soaked tissue, "I just thought that you'd despise me for getting pregnant whilst we are so young and we've never really discussed children. I thought you'd think I'd be a bad mother as I didn't have my own mother as a terribly good role model."
"Sophie. I don't need to look at your family to know that you'd be a brilliant mother. Your love, passion and commitment you extend to everyone shows me you'd be a brilliant mother. It also made me see that I wanted to make you my wife."
Sophie smiled as she blushed, "I thought you were edgy this past week."
"I was trying to find the right moment, I didn't have a balcony for help in expressing my emotions did I?" Charlie joked.
"You could've wrote a letter to Julliet for advice." Sophie retorted then leaned in to kiss Charlie.
