Epilogue to Bleeding Heart
Miller sat down at his desk and absorbed what his daughter just told him, she was having a baby. He wanted to be furious but he couldn't, he understood, they didn't plan it. He wanted Landon to stay away from Jamie so she could stay safe, but Landon was her baby's father. Miller couldn't ask him to stay away now, he knew how it felt to be away from your child, not being able to see them, he wouldn't wish that on anyone.
He loved Landon like a son, he knew Landon would treat Jamie right. It was clear they were in love. Miller knew what he had to do even though he didn't want to but it was what was best and now he could see the two people he loves most happy.
Landon and Jamie sat in the two seats in front of Miller's desk once he sat down, he had a serious look but neither of them could tell what he was thinking. She was nervous but she didn't bite her nails, she just wanted to hear what her father was going to say, Landon held on to her hand.
Miller cleared his throat and looked at both Jamie and Landon. " Carter, you're fired." he simply told him.
Landon was a little taken back. He and Jamie exchanged a glance before he told Miller. " I don't understand."
" You're going to have a child, you can't risk your life anymore for me. I wanted you both to stay away from each other because of the life you lead, now you have to be in each other's lives because of the baby and because it's what you want. So I have to find away to be ok with you guys being together, if your life was safer then it is now I'd be ok with it. So that's what's happening." Miller explained to Landon.
" You're ok with us being together?" Jamie asked with her voice being full of shock. She expected her father to be furious all yell, not what he was doing, acting sort of nice about the whole thing.
" Jamie I missed out on so much of your life and I hated it. I don't want that for you, Landon and your baby. This is what's best and you can be happy." Miller explained to Jamie then looked at Landon. " Are you ok with being fired? I'm just asking, you're fired either way."
Landon smiled. " I'm ok with being fired." he said and he was. He didn't need his job anymore, he didn't need it to fill his life, he had Jamie and their baby, that's all he needed and wanted.
" There's also something else I want." Miller told the couple. " Jamie I need you to move out of that apartment and back into the building….with Cater." he said.
Jamie shook her head slightly because she was trying to understand. " You really are ok with this." she said.
" I will be." Miller simply said to her. He was still upset about the fact that they lied about their relationship to him but like he said, he will be.
Jamie and Landon left Miller's a couple of minutes later but not before Jamie found Blair and thanked her for telling Landon where she was. Having Landon their when she waited to find out if she was having a baby helped, he helped.
They wasted no time, Landon and Jamie went to her apartment and packed up her things, everything they could for the day and headed back to his place. Jamie sat down on the sofa while Landon closed the door, he sat down beside her.
" I can't believe how well everything turned out." Jamie remarked.
" Yeah, I expected him to be little bit more pissed." Landon said. " Now everything is the way we wanted."
" Are you ok with being out of the business?" Jamie asked as she looked into his eyes, she had to make sure he was ok with everything, she didn't want him to feel like he was missing something.
" I'm happy about it, I don't need that job anymore. I have enough money to last me a life time and I have you, there's no more need for me to work with Miller." Landon explained to her as he caressed her hand.
" I'm glad to hear that." Jamie said with a smile as they continued to stare into each other's eyes.
" You know there's only one more thing left for us to do." Landon said as he looked down at her hand.
" Besides call my mother? What is the other thing?" Jamie asked.
Landon reached into his pocket, something he had been carrying for awhile now, since before Miller ever found out about them. He pulled out the small black box, Jamie's eyes widened as her heart began to race.
" Landon what are you doing?" She asked him as she looked at the box then back at his face.
" I bought this when I realized I fell in love with you. I was going to ask you to marry me and then we'd tell Miller together but that plan didn't work and we were pulled apart from each other. Now I have you back and your father gave us his blessing. Now seems like the perfect time." Landon explained to her as he held on to her hand and got on one knee.
Jamie felt tears of joy in her eyes, her hormones were already acting up. That and she was truly happy. Everything turned out better then she could ever dream.
" Jamie Sullivan, will you please marry me?" Landon asked as he stared into her eyes and slipped the ring on her finger.
Jamie wiped the tears from her cheeks and smiled as she said. " Yes."
