Devon's POV
"Babe?!" I heard the door close after Jason's voice.
"In the kitchen!" I yelled back. I washed my hands and turned to the door. "Hey handsome." I smiled and he did the same closing the gap between us.
"You scared me." I giggled kissing his cheek.
"I'm sorry baby." He kissed me softly before looking deep into my eyes. "What?"
"You're beautiful." I blushed and giggled.
"Stoooop." I turned to check on what I was cooking. I giggled silently to myself.
"Do you need help?"
"No thank you baby, I got it." He nodded and then went to the living room.
"I have an important question to ask you Devon." He said.
"Okay?"
"Okay I think you need to sit for this one." I gave him a confused look.
"Is everything okay Jason?" He nodded. I went to the couch and sat next holding his shaking hand.
"Um, I've been meaning to ask you this since the past week, I um.." he cleared his throat and shifted in his seat. He took a deep breath and then went down to kneel on one knee before me.
"Babewhatareyoudoing?" I asked so fast I don't know if he even heard the question.
My heart started beating quicker.
"Devon I love you so much and you have been nothing but amazing to me. I don't know why I'd be living if I wouldn't see that you are one in a million and I have to keep you with me forever." He took out a small black box and opened it revealing a stunning ring. I gasped closing my eyes to stop the tears.
"Oh my God!" I whispered.
"Darling, I want you to be my wife and mother of my children. I would be so happy if you would say yes to my question. Devon Roberts, will you marry me?"
"Yes!" I cried.
"Did you say yes?" I giggled nodding at the same time. He slipped the ring and it fit perfectly. "Thank you." He whispered before planting a kiss on my lips.
"Well I have something to tell you." I cleared my throat. "I didn't just call you back home because I was sick again. I actually noticed my period was late and all these morning sicknesses so I did a pregnancy test and we're having a baby."
"What?! You're not kidding right?" I shook my head no and he laughed. "I'm going to be a dad? Yes!" He kissed my stomach repeatedly.
"Babe stop!" I giggled. "You're tickling me." I said.
"I love you so much."
"I love you too Jase."

Hailey's POV
"He did what?!" I asked Paige and then looked at Grayson.
Flashback
"Ma'am Grayson isn't in the school premises. The principal said your wife left with him early." Bobby said over the phone. That's strange. Paige is currently at Ronda's baby shower.
"Well have you called her?"
"She's not picking up." He said. "Do I have your permission to drive Camilla home and also check if Grayson is home?"
"Yeah, I'll try calling her in the meantime." I hung up and before I tried calling Paige I saw her text which she had sent a few hours ago saying she had to leave the party early. I texted her back asking why.
My phone rang.
"Babe." I answered.
"You need to promise not to get mad at him first." She said confusing me.
"Who?"
"Gray, I had to take him home with me." I let out a breath of relief. He's safe.
"But why? Is that why you left Ronda's baby shower?"
"Yes but I think you need to come home for this one." She said.
"I'll be there in an hour."
End of flashback
"Mommy I swear I didn't do it." Gray said.
"So what happened then?" I asked furiously. "Why were you in the principal's office today?"
"M-mom" Gray looked at Paige begging for rescue.
"Grayson Anders!" I yelled.
"Okay okay." He sighed before speaking. "He's lying. He got the drugs from Billy not me. I don't even know how to get those." He explained.
"Who is Billy?" Paige asked.
"Mom you know Billy, the Wilder's Last child."
"That Billy?" Paige asked and I looked at her.
"Marcus's son?" I asked.
"Yeah." She said.
"Gray you're into drugs now? Are you fucking kidding me?!"
"Babe! Language." Paige warned.
"Mother I swear it was only once, at Billy's party but I haven't been to their house since that night. They actually made me try it because they said I needed to prove I was cool." He sounded so nervous. I looked at my wife and she nodded. She believes him.
"Go to your room and stay there until I say so." I ordered and he immediately ran upstairs.
"Calm down baby." Paige came to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "I did talk to him before you got here but he kept repeating I didn't do it, I swear I didn't do it." I sighed.
"He's in fucking trouble isn't he?" I asked and she shook her head.
"Well it's a good thing Juliet is my friend and I told her to find a way not to involve Gray in this one." I took a deep breath. "I'm already handling it my love don't worry about it okay?" I sighed. "And I will have a talk with Marcus tomorrow. I'm closer to him than you are so I think he'll deal with his son if I talk to him." I nodded.
"And by talking to him you mean threatening to ruin his family's life?" She chuckled.
"As a wealthy mother with a billionaire wife I've learnt that's the only way to get people to do what is necessary." I gave her disapproving look.
"I don't like that Paige, that's not who I fell in love with." She shrugged.
"Hailey we've talked about this. My family's safety and reputation comes first, I'd do anything for you and our babies. Anything." As much as I didn't like it when she talked like that, I always nodded and let it go.
"I still can't believe he's taking cocaine and I didn't know about it. Or at least noticed something wrong, I'm such a bad mother."
"Baby you're not a bad mother. We're doing great for our kids actually." I looked into her beautiful eyes. "If you're worried about this getting out to the media, I have that under control."
"I know you do baby." I leaned to kiss her soft lips.
"I'm so disappointed and mad." I whined like a child. My wife giggled at my behaviour.
"Aren't you such a big baby?" We giggled. "Come on, let's put a smile back on your face and make you happy. Come on." She pulled me towards the stairs.
