Chapter. 12: Proposals & Babies

A/N:  Sorry for such a long delay on this story. I was having issues medically which turned into mental health issues and I needed a break. I had problems with my hands which made it difficult for me to type. I use my phone and it was just too hard. I'm fine now and I'm going back to it. I got an offer to try and publish this story on two other platforms. WebNovel contacted me first and then an app called Readict. I don't know if I'm going to do both or just one. But to see opportunities rising for my work has always been a dream for me and of course everyone else who is wanting to becone a writer professionally.

I want to thank all of those who've read and given me the votes and the one comment, thank you. Please feel free to give me ideas on what to do with a story next. I really needed time to focus on myself before I dived back into my writing. Now, I'm better than ever and can't wait to continue to share the story. Please continue to read or if you're just starting pleas finish I promise it will get better.

I love you all,

KC

I look at the beautiful man next to me.  I couldn't ask for a better man. Most people have to try and keep searching, but I got lucky with knowing that I have just one. I mean I dated Austin, but it felt more like I was dating my brother. It was weird, and to be honest it didn't count. No, I got luckily. Yeah, we had our fights. Had our moments, but we survived.

I guess he could sense me staring at him because he was smiling. "Liking what you see?" He looks at me with his gorgeous hazel eyes. "No," I kiss his lips. "I love it." "That's a good answer. I thought we get into the process of moving." "Today?" "Of course. I want to start painting and decorating. Today. I'm going to give you the address cause I have to stop somewhere, but pick out the decorations and paints for at least the living room and the kitchen. I have an errand I need to run on my own."

I pout because I hate when he has to do an errand on his own, but I accepted. We get showered and dressed and I text the girls and ask them if they want to help me shop for paint. Zoe couldn't because she's due for her c-section any day now, but Chloe said she would. "I can't believe you're moving in together. I really need to find a boyfriend. Do you know if there dating sites specifically for Samoan men? Cause after seeing Aquaman I'd love a man like Jason Momoa." I rolled my eyes. I stopped and looked at paint samples and one caught my eye. It was called Blue Suede Shoes it was like a grey/blue color. It was super pretty and I know that Eric would love it. "What do you think?" "Pretty. How many cans of paint would you need?" "I don't know, I'll get five gallon cans and if I need more I can come back.

I got the paint and some white paint. We went after that onto kitchen areas where I saw some pretty pink rose colored cabinets and immediately got an idea. "Can you do me a huge favor, I'm going to ask about these cabinets and I want you to find like a white and bronze marble backsplash." "What the hell is a backsplash?" Ask someone they'll tell you."

I talked to a guy about getting the cabinets and I found an island and counters that would go well with the marble backsplash as they had marble tops. They said they should be ready to have someone get it installed next week which was fine. I texted Eric and told him what I had planned and he said that it was great and whatever made me happy. I sent him the eye roll emoji and he said he'll be home soon.

Chloe sent me a picture of some options for the backsplash and I texted her that the second one was the best. She came back with a shopping cart of one decent sized box. "There, are we done in here?" "Yes, then I want to go to Ethan Allen they have this beautiful off white tufted sofa I want to check out.

When we got to Ethan Allen I saw the sofa and immediately knew that it was perfect. I went and saw some blue and grey and white decorative pillows and I put them in a cart. I saw this brown wooden coffee table and decided to make a mental note that this was something I wanted to buy. "Look at this." Chloe was always known for finding cute knick knacks to place in the house or apartment.  "This Greek style bust of some dude's head seems to say sophisticated and grown up. And there's this lamp that would match perfectly with its navy blue lampshade. And she went over and found a beautiful abstract art piece and I had to admit that Eric and I should've hired her as our decorator. "Are you sure you're in the right profession?" "It's great isn't it? Now, all you have to do is get the couch and the coffee table set up for delivery and you're good to go."
