Chapter 57

The weeks passed quickly and Belle and Shawn learned how to care for Zariana. The baby continued to grow and learned many new things as she was a special baby. Belle also continued to talk to Hope all the time about her problems. She was no longer having the nightmares anymore and she felt safe in Shawn's arms. She was an excellent mother.

Shawn and Belle decided to take Zariana on a walk through the park. Belle pushed her stroller and Shawn's hand was draped over Belle's shoulder.

Shawn: I can't believe how fast our baby is growing up. And I'm so glad you decided to give us another chance.

Belle: I love you, Shawn. I have always loved you and I always will.

Shawn: Want me to push her for awhile?

Belle stopped walking and Shawn bent down to take the baby out of her stroller. She smiled at her daddy.

Shawn: Hi there Zari, how is daddy's little angel doing? Want me to hold you for awhile?

Zariana was a month old now and she looked just like Shawn. She moved her little arm up and tried to grab Shawn's hand.

Belle: Look, she wants your fingers.

Shawn: I love you too, Zari.

Belle: I can't belive we found our way back to eachother. I mean how many people get a second chance at hapiness.

Shawn: You're right we are truly one of the lucky ones.

Belle: Well we better hurry up we have to be back at the house for Chloe's special news.

Shawn: Yeah we better hurry you know how cranky Brady is when people are late.

Back at the House

Brady: Chloe are you sure you're ready to tell them.

Chloe: Just as soon as Shawn is done with his surprise for Belle. We will share our special news.

Mimi, Jason, and Landon had just back to the house with the pizza for the night and a movie.

Jason: Brady, Chloe were here.

Chloe: Come on in.

Brady: Here Mimi let me hold my nephew.

Brady took Landon out of Mimi's arm when he felt some sharp scratch his arm. Brady looked down at Mimi's hand and gasped.

Brady: You're engaged aren't you. Jason man why didn't you tell me.

Jason: We were going to tell everyone after Shawn gave Belle his surprise we didn't want to ruin it for them.

Brady: Okay your secret is safe with me.

They put the pizza in the kitchen and went to the living room to wait for Shawn and Belle.

Shawn and Belle finally made their appearence. Chloe immediately went to hold Zariana. Everyone gathered round grabbing pizza slices. Finally, after several minutes, Shawn took Belle's hand and stood her up where she as facing him.

Shawn: Belle, I have something important to say.

Belle: Shawn, what is going on? What are you doing?

Everyone was watching them. Shawn got down on his knee and pulled a small black velvet box out. He opened it to reveal a huge diamond ring.

Shawn: Belle, I know I majorly screwed up before but I'm sorry about that and I promise that I will never hurt you again. You are the love of my life and you have given me the most precious thing a woman can give a man, my daughter. I want us to be together for the rest of our lives. You are my world. I love you. So I guess what I'm trying to say is, will you marry me, Belle?

Belle gasped and her mouth dropped open. Brady, Jason, Mimi, and Chloe watched with excitement as Belle's face displayed many emotions. She broke out into a smile and held her hand out for Shawn to put the ring on it.

Belle: Yes I will marry you, Shawn! I love you too and we will be together forever!

Shawn picked her up and spun her around while kissing her the whole time. Everyone congradulated them. Soon, after the excitement of that was ending, Jason and Mimi decided to make their little announcement.

Jason: Can I have everyone's attention, please?

Mimi: Jason and I have something we would like to tell everyone.

Everyone stared at them.

Jason: Well you see, (grabs Mimi's hand to show off the ring), Mimi and I got engaged last night. I asked her to marry me and she said yes. Isn't that great?!

Everyone cheered.

Shawn: Wow I am so happy for you, Jason.

Belle: Yeah it looks like our lives are becoming perfect.

Chloe: Well you guys aren't the only ones with stuff to tell. Brady and I have something to tell you also.

Brady: And before you ask, no we aren't getting married just yet. We decided to wait for a while.

Belle: Well don't keep us waiting. What is going on?

Brady: We are having a baby!

Chloe: I'm pregnant!

Belle: You're going to have a baby? This is so sweet.

Mimi: Hey if you need any help, Belle and I will help you.

Shawn: Hey don't be volunteering my wife for anything, cuz we will be married by then and I will be keeping her very busy.

Jason: Yeah Meems, we'll be busy too.

Brady: Oh thanks you guys.

Chloe: It's ok honey. The baby will be keeping us busy.

Everyone laughed. Yep, their lives were working out just fine. They were going to be ok.
