Beautifully and Wonderfully made (gxg)

Chapter 23

Demi's POV:

I look around the room for Aubrey because I feel bad about avoiding the whole marriage talk. I'm going to propose to her soon, just I um, it hasn't been the right time ya know? Okay fine. I'm nervous and terrified as hell. My eyes land on the beautiful girl I'm in love with and then the adorable girl I had made a small connection with earlier. I remember her story slightly. I know she hasn't had it easy which is so incredible for such a young soul. She seems to have found a good place to rest. She's smart because Aubrey's arms are the most comfortable place to sleep. I slowly make my way across the room but I'm stopped by a woman about in her 50s. "Demi I'd like to talk to you about Mayleigh."

"Who's Mayleigh?" I stop and stare at this woman confused.

"The little girl in your dates lap."

So that's her name? Mayleigh. It's unique. Cute. I love it. "What about her?"

"I think it'd be good if you were the one that adopted her. You and your love over there. She drew a picture-here I'll show you-" she pulls out a folded piece of paper from her bag and there is a crayon drawing of a little stick figure and then two big ones and one has my name above it.

"I'll talk to her about it okay?" I whisper as I walk past her and towards the love of my life and my future child. I stand behind her chair and watch as Aubrey tucks a strand of Mayleigh's blonde hair behind her ear and then kisses her forehead and I can't help but smile because this is my family. This is what was meant to be. "This is perfect." I whisper smiling down as I look at the child and Aubrey looks up to me.
