You Fixed Me, Foster [Book 2](Up For Adoption)

Chapter 2

Hey, My Lightning Bolts✨⚡💛

School got canceled today because of how cold it is outside, so I was able to work on a new chapter for you guys. I hope you enjoy.

Previously

The wedding was a beautiful one. When Biana was getting ready to throw the bouquet, she handed it to Dex. He looked confused at Biana's action to look at his boyfriend, Fitz to see why his sister might have done something like that. When Dex turns around, he sees Fitz is down on the ground kneeling on one knee with a black box open. "Dex Dizznee will you marry me?" "Yes," he says pulling Fitz up from his stance and pulling him into a kiss. "Well. I guess we got to plan another wedding now," Marella says.

~A Week Later~

Keefe's POV:

I come home to me and Sophie's apartment from a long day recording songs at the recording studio for the new song I've been working on. When I walk in the door, I take off my shoes and coat, and walk over to the couch and sit down next to Sophie and put my head in her lap. She is startled when I do that. She was looking at the ring on her finger that I gave her. She looks down at her lap to see my head in it. "Hey, Keefe. When did you get home?" She asks. "I just got home," I say as I stretch. "Do you like it?" "Hmm." "The ring." "Yes. I do, Keefe. It's beautiful. I'm glad I said yes." "Me too," I say sitting up for a kiss.

The ring if you don't remember

~Flashback to the Day of the preposal~

Sophie's POV:

We are at the beach after having a full-day date. 'Was there special happening today that I didn't know about?' I wonder as we are walking along the beach staring as the sun was setting, bringing the marvelous day to a closing. I stop and take the chance to stare out at the sunset. 

what the sunset looked like

I can feel the last rays of light reflecting off of my skin. I tuck a piece of loose hair behind my ear that had escaped. I go to turn around to talk to Keefe about how perfect this day was when I see him kneeling on the sand with a black box open and a gold ring with an ice blue gem in the center. It was simple and elegant at the same time. Just the way I like it. I just stand there staring at the box in his hands. Time itself seems as if it stops.

"Sophie Elizabeth Foster. Will you marry me?" Those words slip through his lips. I am frozen for a moment and it takes me a bit to register what he just said. It feels as if the words won't escape my lips.

When the words finally do come, I say excitedly, "Yes. Yes. Yes. Of course." He slips the ring onto my finger and pulls me into a hug where he spins me around and kisses me. "I love you so much, Sophie." "I love you too, Keefe."

~Current Time~

"I still can't believe we have been engaged for 3 months now," I say when I am finally pulled from my thoughts. "Me too," he says smiling up at me from his place on my lap. "When are we supposed to meet with our wedding planner?" I ask as I stare out the window of our apartment to see the vast and dark night sky spread across the land like a blanket. "I think we are supposed to meet on Saturday of next weekend at that nice restaurant downtown. I think it was called Eternalia. Or something like that," he says staring off as I run my fingers through his hair he prides himself over.

We sit there in the silence enjoying each other's company. I continue running my fingers through his hair until I remembered something I forgot to tell Keefe. "Hey, Keefe?" "Hmm?" "You remember my brother, Sandor, and his wife,  Grizel?" (btw Sandor is Sophie's biological brother. He was away fighting at the time during the accident when it happened. But he ended up finding out a few months later. ) "Yeah. What about them?" He looks up to meet my eyes. I can see the slight hint of fear in his eyes. Sandor and Grizel have both had training dealing with the army. The last time Keefe saw Sandor and Grizel was before the accident with my biological parents when he came to visit me for my 9th birthday. I was able to see him a few years ago before he went on the major mission he had that was supposed to last around 5 years. He knows that me and Keefe are dating, but I haven't been able to tell him that me and Keefe are now engaged. 

"Well. They are coming back from that mission that they had this week, and we are supposed to pick them up from the airport on Saturday. They will be staying with us for a while." "Do they know about us being engaged?" "No." "That will be fun," I hear Keefe mumble to himself.

~Time Skip To Saturday~

We are waiting at the airport to pick up my brother. It has been 5 years since I last saw him. I'm really excited that my old habit of plucking out itchy eyelashes kicks in. I reach my hand to pluck an eyelash that was itchy when Keefe grabs my hand and laces our fingers together so we are now holding hands.

The plane that he is arriving on finally lands and the gates open to let the passengers off. As the passengers start coming off, I stand up and start looking for the familiar figure of my brother and his wife. I finally spot him just as he catches sight of me. I release me and Keefe's intertwined hands and start running towards Sandor. He puts his bags down so he would be able to catch me when I throw myself at him. He catches me and spins me around before putting me back down on my feet.

We start heading toward's our car so we can get back to me and Keefe's apartment so Sandor and Grizel rest because they are tired from their journey here.

Well, that's It for now. Goodbye, My Lightning Bolts✨⚡💛
