We had been at the hospital for what seemed like hours, but had only been thirty minutes. Sam, Leah, and Kim were in the room with Emily. She wanted Kim in there so she knew what to expect in about eight months and Leah was in there because it was her cousin. Talk about awkward. So Paul, Jared, Jake, Embry, Quill, Brady, and Collin had left me, Nessie, Chrissie with Claire while they went and got food. Claire had fallen asleep in my lap as soon as Quill left, which was ten minutes ago. Nessie and Chrissie were talking about some kind of fashion week and stuff like that.
The guys finally came back twenty minutes later with bags full of food. Claire woke up because they were so damn loud. She threw a book at Quill when he called her a lazy bum. This kid is going to be my favorite kid, ever. We sat there for another hour. Finally, Sam came out of Emily's room with a baby wrapped in a blue blanket in his arms. I've never seen him so happy in my life.
"Everybody, meet Alexander Uley," he said smiling big. Nessie, Chrissie, and Claire went to see him first. I just sat there and wondered what it'd be like to have Paul's children. I knew it was gonna happen one day, and I kinda can't wait when it does happen.
"You gonna go hold him?" Paul leaned over and asked me.
"Nah, I let the family have all the time they want with him. Where are Seth and Kate, by the way?" I asked just noticing they wasn't there.
"Uhm, didn't Kate tell you?" Paul asked.
"Tell me what?"
"That she's moving in with Seth. They decided it at the wedding." He explained.
"No, she didn't tell me. But I'm ready to go home. I'm tired."
"Alright, I'll go get my truck."
"I'm going to go tell Emily bye." I walked into her room and saw Emily laying there with little Alexander. "Congrats you two," I told her and Sam, who was sitting beside her.
"You want to hold him?" Emily asked.
"Oh, not yet. Paul and I are leaving. I'm going home. I'm really tired. It's been a long day."
"Alright then, tell your mom I said hello when you get home," Emily told me.
"Oh, she's at another nursing convention for the week. I've been at home with Kate and Paul." I told her. "But I'll text her later and tell her you said hello." Sam whispered something in Emily's ear and her eyes got big and he left.
"Alright chicky, here's my speech," Emily started. "I know you and Paul will one day have a family, but please wait to start it till after you're married, okay?" Oh great, here we go.
"Uhm, of course. I'd like to finish school first," I replied.
"Good, because, well, if you don't, you might end up like Kimmy here and end up with three little Paul's running around all at once. Lord help us if your children end up anything like him," she said laughing.
"Oh dear, that'd be just horrible. We don't need more than one hot-headed wolf," Leah added. I just laughed.
"Trust me, if anything happens, I'll make sure he uses protection. I'm already on the pill. I have been for about two years now." I informed them. "But I'm going to get out of here before Paul thinks I bailed out on him," I hugged Emily and gave little Alexander a kiss, and hugged Leah and Kim. As I hugged Kim, she whispered in my ear.
"If anything happens, call me in the morning so we can talk about it," she said trying to hold back a giggle. I laughed and left the room. Paul was already waiting in the truck. His usually tan skin looked pale. Kinda like a vampire.
"Babe, you're starting to look like the Cullen's," I said jokingly.
"Uhm, me and Sam just had a little conversation," he said putting the truck in drive.
"Probably can't be as bad as the one Emily, Leah, and Kim gave me."
"Try me. Look in the glove box and look at what him and Jared done," he said.
"Okay," I opened it up, and about ten boxes of condoms sat in there, and one box of a morning after pill for me. "Are you serious!" I said a little loudly. I put my head in my hands trying to hide my blushing face from Paul.
"Babe, don't be embarrassed. I did it to Jared and Sam too. I should've seen it coming. I really should have," I looked over at him and scooted over the seat to sit next to him and I laid my head on his arm. He kissed the top of my head and went back to driving. Collin had already moved into his apartment and Kate was with Seth doing who knows what, so me and Paul had the house to ourselves. He put his truck into park when we got there and turned and started kissing me. This time when his tongue begged for entrance, I let it. We got out of the truck and I wrapped my legs around his waist and he started walking to the door. Then I remembered I had locked it.
"Damn it to hell," I mumbled against his lips. I unwrapped my legs from his waist and broke the kiss. I then realized that my keys were in my purse. My purse was in my Jeep. My Jeep was unfortunately at the beach still. "Damn it!" I said.
"What's wrong babe?"
"My keys are in my purse which is in my Jeep at the beach," I said.
"I can go get it if you'd like," he suggested. Then I remembered that we had a spare key for the backdoor.
"No, that's fine. There's a key at the backdoor, we can go in from there." We walked around back and I got the key and unlocked the door. We went upstairs to my room and as soon as my door shut, Paul's lips were on mine again. We made our way to my bed and we had lost our shirts in the process. Then, all of a sudden, Paul broke the kiss and this time, I was the one that growled.
"What the hell, Paul?"
"I need to do this first, before anything happens. Carmen Alexia, I love you with all my heart. I'll never love anyone else. I will be your best friend, your lover, your protector. And now, all I want," and at that he reached in his pockets and pulled out a little black velvet box and I gasped. "Is for you to be my wife. Carmen Alexia, will you marry me?" I couldn't even speak. I had started crying. I just nodded and threw my arms around him.
"Of course I'll marry you, Paul. I love you so much," and I kissed him. He laughed and he grabbed my hand and put the ring on my finger. It was so beautiful. It was white gold with a diamond cut out in the shape of a heart with two smaller diamonds on each side. "Hey Paul, I really do love you. And promise me one thing?"
"Yeah babe, what is it," he said kissing my forehead.
"Don't you ever forget it," I said pulling him to me, restarting our heated make-out session. I was ready to give him every little bit of me. Ryan had tried countless times to get me to sleep with him. But now, with Paul, I was ready. Paul seemed to know what I was wanting.
"Are you sure you want this?"
"Of course I'm sure, Paul. I love you and I plan on being with you forever. And I promise I won't have any regrets," I told him.
"Okay then. Just tell me," I shut him up by kissing him again.
"I'll let you know when I need you to stop, okay. I know you're not going to hurt me," I said smiling and I kissed him, again. And then, I just knew, I'd always be his and he will always be mine.
So…what did y'all think? Hmmmmm? ;) Review please
