Chloe's POV
"Are you ready?" He asked parking outside his house, well I guess it's our house now. After I woke he insisted that we move in together. At first I was uncertain but throughout the days he began to tell me what he'd done. He told me he'd turned his life around, and he had. Days passed and I began to remember the stories, like I'd heard them before. Before you knew it I remembered everything that he'd told me. Of course trusting Derek was hard, but I loved him and he loved me.
"I'm nervous." I replied as he helped me out of the car.
"And why is that?" He asked wrapping his arm around me and resting his hand on my hip.
"Well…everyone is waiting in there to surprise me right." I said looking up at him, "but I'd much rather spend the night alone." He cleared his throat and started to lead me to the door.
"Alone, huh." I watched as his face fell. Did my words upset him?
"Well, alone with you." I added whispering as I looked at the ground in an attempt to hide my blush.
"You're beautiful," He whispered as his fingers brushed my chin pulling my face up to look him in the eye, "don't hide you eyes from me Chloe, I've spent too long without them." I could feel my entire body rise ten degrees at his words.
"Derek." I whispered wrapping my arms around him tugging at his shirt so he could lean down. It was a signal he'd learned from when we were teenagers and he followed my command. Leaning up I kissed him, trying to show him just how I felt in that one action.
"We have a party in our house, we should probably make an appearance." He whispered running a hand through my hair as I nodded. Taking a deep breath we turned towards our door, reaching out I pushed the door open. Honestly, I really did try to be surprised at the loud shout of 'Surprise!', but I wasn't that surprised. After all I did see it coming.
"Hey guys." I replied slipping my shoes off as we entered the house. Derek's hand moved up to my back supporting me as we made our rounds around the house. It really was beautiful here. The last time I was here was so long ago; the house was completely bare back then not a single picture in sight. Back then I'd walked these halls in distaste thinking he'd stolen this house from me, when really he'd built it for me, designed everything the way I wanted. Yet when I walked through them now, pictures of us lining the walls, friends greeting up with cheerful smiles, all I could feel was Derek. Derek and me perhaps, yet the house made me feel like Derek holding me in his arms.
"I put them up after Tori brought them over." He told me as I looked at the pictures lining the walls.
"They're lovely." I replied squeezing the hand held in my own, "the entire house is."
"I also moved everything into our room." He whispered in my ear, "As of an hour ago you were officially moved into the house."
"You didn't have to do that." I replied wrapping my arms around his neck, "but thank you." We kissed lightly hidden away from the busy party that was meant to welcome me home.
"Chloe!" I heard a loud familiar voice call, pulling away from Derek I turned towards Lani's voice.
"Hey guys." I smiled pulling Lani in for a hug as Derek greeted Daniel.
"They got close while you were gone." Lani whispered into my ear as we watched Derek and Daniel exchange pleasantries.
"Chloe!" Pulling away from Lani I was attacked by Drone moments after, "your up and walking! Oh I'm just so proud!"
"Drone try not to strangle her, Derek might tear you to pieces if you did, plus I kinda like you the way you are now." I froze at Karan's voice pushing Drone back to stare at them.
"Am I missing something?" I asked trying to hold the massive grin off my face.
"Maybe." Drone said blushing at looking at the floor. I felt Derek's arm circle around my waist from behind me pulling me against his chest.
"Karan?" I looked at him and he blushed darker then Drone.
"It's-"
"He loves me!" Drone interrupted wrapping his arms around his boyfriend. Smiling over at me, "we've been going out for a while now."
"Six months." Karan whispered still looking at his feet. Pulling away from Derek giving him a gently smile before attacking two of my favorite boys in a large hug.
"I'm so happy for you!" I cheered ruffling their hair before returning to my very favorite male.
"We're happy for you as well." Daniel said looking at Derek and I and I grinned.
"Thank you." I replied looking up at Derek as I did. His green eyes shinning with so many emotions I got lost in them.
"They say it's rude to stare." He whispered in my ear and I blushed looking away.
"Shut up." I muttered dragging Derek out of the room. "When exactly is this party going to be over? Not that I don't like our friends."
"Soon." Derek replied kissing the crown of my hair.
"How about now?" I asked looking up at him and he laughed.
"Alright." Kissing my cheek he walked to the center of the living room. His presence demanded attention; this was always what happened with Derek. Even his walk called attention to himself and everyone turned to him when he began to speak.
"Thank you, everyone for coming and joining us here. I know everyone in this room is as glad as I am at the safe return of our beloved Chloe Saunders." I blushed as he waved me over to join him. This was so much more embarrassing then the 'surprise' entrance to the party. Sighing I walked over to him taking his warm hand in my own. "I'd like everyone to raise a glass to the beautiful girl who's blessed us all with her presence, but first. I have an important question to ask." He turned and looked at me reaching out he moved a stray piece of hair behind my ear.
"Der-" Reaching out he pressed his hands to my lip.
"Don't say anything, until I finish." I watched him take a deep breath before moving onto one knee, "Chloe Saunders, right here in front of all of our closest friends. In front of our family I want to ask you to become my wife." He reached into his back pocket pulling out a small black box. When he opened it he showed the most beautiful ring I'd ever seen. Looking around I saw everyone watching us, waiting for my answer.
"You're so god damn embarrassing." I hissed, causing him to grin and stand up.
"Is that a yes?" He prodded and I blushed,
"Yes! Of course it's a yes!" I said tugging at his shirt; a smile crossed his face as he leaned down covering my lips with his. I barely heard the cheers around me as he slipped the ring onto my finger.

A/N: So this was long over due almost a year since I wrote for this story! OMG I am so so sorry for this terribly late update!I will be writing this in Derek's POV next. Though it'll be from the proposal to later on that night.
As a massive apology I will ask this of all of you.
If you would like me too I would be happy to write a short epilogue about this family.
Option A: Simon's Wedding, Po's/Daniel's Proposal and DerekxChloe's Wedding. Possibly a Drone/Karan scene as well.
Option B: Skip the wedding and move onto kids. DerekxChloe pregnancy too four year olds, Drone/Karan's big adoption and DanielxLani's Wedding.
Option C: Do both. This however means I will be writing many more chapters and the updates will not be as regular as I would like them.
Thanks for your time. I will not be putting a poll up you will simply have to send a review or PM me on your choice.
