Chapter 68
《Dillon》Carmen and I just got to the restaurant and we walk to our table Carmen I ment what I said back at the house you do look beautiful, Carmen this past year has been the best year of my life when you came to this very restaurant with your sister and my brother Peyton and our nieces for lunch and I saw you I didn't think that there was any other woman as beautiful as you and me being a clumsy idiot almost dumped your food on your lap because I was so captivated by your beauty but then when I felt the plate being took out of my hand and you smiled at me that smile is so beautiful but I didn't know what to say to you I wanted to talk to you that day but I didn't know what to say because you smiled at me I lost all my sensibility to be able to talk but when Peyton had the dinner party here and I talked to you for the first time and your response to me was oh look at you, you can talk so what I'm trying to say is this past year with you was amazing and I want to have many more amazing years with you, I get up and walk over to Carmen I take her hand in mine and I say Carmen Blanchard I have loved you for a year will you marry me?
《Carmen》I sat there stunned not knowing what to say I finally find the words to say and I say, Dillon Meyer I have loved you for a year I have dreamt of one day becoming your wife and spending the rest of my life devoted to you so my answer is yes I'll marry you I love you I watch as he takes out the most beautiful ring that I have ever seen in my life and he slips and on my finger then we kiss and he picks me up and spins me around in his arms I laugh and say OK OK Dillon you can put me down now once he puts me flat on my feet I smile and laugh at him and I said yeah I have something to tell you he looks at me with a confused look on his face I look at him and laugh a little bit God your so cute when your confused but anyway I know that this is something that we haven't talked about yet I don't know how your going to take this news but I'm hoping that you will be excited I put my hands on my stomach and I say do you want to have a baby he looks at me even more confused so I say your going to be a daddy
《Dillon》I'm going to be a daddy?
《Carmen》Yes honey you are we're going to be parents he smiles at me and yet again I am lifted off my feet and being spun around in circles OK OK Dillon can you put me down I'm going to be sick from all this spinning he gently places me back on my feet and I look around me and for the very first time I finally notice that Dillon and I are the only ones in the restaurant other than his kitchen staff so I look back at Dillon and say Dillon did you seriously shut down the restaurant just for us?
《Dillon》Yeah I did I wanted this night to be perfect you deserve the most perfect things in the world starting with a perfect wedding when do you want to get married?
《Carmen》Dillon honey we just got engaged but I do want to get married before I start showing I don't want to be a fat whale on our wedding day
《Dillon》Baby you are not going to be a fat whale you are going to be beautiful you are beautiful I am going to love you no matter how big you get just think of it this way you are carrying a human life inside of you, you are carrying our child we can always get married after you have the baby or we can get married next month if you want it's up to you babe whatever you want I'll give you and I think I know the perfect place where we can get married
《Carmen》I love you, you know that and where is the perfect place we can get married?
《Dillon》Right here in this very restaurant where we first met and fell in love just think about it you coming out of the kitchen or out of the storage room in a nice white gorgeous wedding dress your father walking you down the aisle me standing at the end of the aisle waiting for you with a big smile on my face my two brothers are my best men your sister being a bridesmaid or your maid of honour our three nieces being the flower girls our nephews being the ring bearers and we can also have the reception here afterwards how does that sound?
《Carmen》That sounds perfect when do you want to get married?
《Dillon》How about next month will that be OK with you?
《Carmen》Perfect now all we need to do is pick a date I was thinking December 3rd how's that date for you?
《Dillon》That sounds perfect now how about we eat and then we can dance or we can do whatever you want to do after we enjoy our meal I help her to sit down then I sit down across from her and one of my kitchen staff brings out our meal
With Peyton and Rowan
《Peyton》So are you going to tell me why Carmen looked freaked out before you walked her home?
《Rowan》Oh um she's pregnant but she don't know how Dillon will take the news about her being pregnant she don't think Dillon wants to be a father, but I know for a fact that he wants to be with my sister for the rest of their lives he came to me my parents and brother 2 months ago and asked us our permission to marry Carmen
《Peyton》Wait a minute here we are getting a niece or nephew and Carmen is going to be my sister-in-law twice?
《Rowan》Yep
《Peyton》Wow I'm happy for them
