I Can't Even Concentrate

Demi's POV

After I talked to Matthew about the possibility of Odell proposing, I just let it go. If he's going to do it then I need to let it be a surprise so I kept myself out of it. It was just a couple weeks later though when I was cleaning and going through our closet since we will be moving soon when a small box fell down from a shelf. I looked down and it was a black velvet box and I literally froze. I looked around to see if Odell was around and he wasn't so I bent down and picked the box up. I debated if I should open it, but then Matthews words rang through my mind and I decided to just put it back where it was. My mind couldn't stop running after that. I don't even know if it was a ring sitting in that box, but it was too small to be for anything else. I felt kind of bad in a way too because I didn't want to be the one to ruin anything Odell would plan.

"Baby, your moms here." Odell says walking into the bedroom about ten minutes later and I look up and nod.

"Okay." I say quietly as I go back to sorting through some of Carters clothes that don't fit him anymore and deciding on the ones I want to keep and the ones I want to donate.

"You okay?" He asks sitting down on the bed next to me and I nod giving him a small smile.

"Yeah. Just thinking." I reply as I peck his lips.

"About what?" He asks back and I chuckle.

"Nothing. Can you believe these don't fit him already?" I ask changing the subject as I hold up one of carters newborn outfits.

"Yeah, crazy that he was that small." He says chuckling and I nod. "We need to have another one." He says kissing my shoulder and I chuckle rolling my eyes.

"I already told you not now." I say and he groans as he lays back on the bed and I smile as I turn so I was facing him.

"I wanna try before he's one though. I want our kids to all be close in age." He then says and I raise my brows.

"You really want to have two kids before we're even married?" I ask not totally realizing what I was saying until it came out.

"We'll be married before then." Is all he says in response with his eyes closed and I raise my brows feeling a smile come over my face.

"I love you." I whisper as I run my fingers through his short curls and he smiles and opens his eyes.

"I love you too." He says grabbing my waist and pulling me onto his lap and I smile bigger as I bend down to kiss him. We pulled away though when we heard Carter let out a loud cry so I moved off his lap and we walked out of the room. I hugged my mom before taking Carter into my arms where he instantly settled.

"Are you hungry baby?" I ask him as I kiss his forehead as he chews on his fingers. "I'm just gonna go feed him real quick." I tell my mom and she nods so I turn and walk back to my room. I pulled my shirt up and let him eat while I opened my phone to text Matthew.

To Matthew💙: He's proposing. I'm sure of it. 😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️❤️

From Matthew💙: I told you not to snoop 🙄😯

To Matthew💙: I wasn't!!! A black box fell off a shelf in the closet. I didn't open it, but what else could it be?? Odell and I were also talking about another baby before Carter is 1 and he said we will be married before then!!!

From Matthew💙: OMGGGGG!!!

To Matthew💙: I KNOW!! I'm so excited! Like I love this man😍😍😍

My thoughts were interrupted by the small whine from Carter and I locked my phone and saw that he was done eating.

"Done already?" I ask him as I pull my shirt back down and move him to lay across my chest so I can burp him. "You didn't eat very much." I then say more to myself as he coos back. Once he was burped, I changed his diaper and then walked back to the living room where Odell and my mom were. My mom took Carter into her arms right away and I chuckled as I sat down next to Odell and rested my head on his shoulder.
