Book number 2 of Dream Roommate.
Hailey moved away from home in Kentucky to be with her new best friends in California. After a suspected infidelity Hailey is tempted to return home, but a fight win her mother changes her mind. Instead she stays in...
What am I doing? Am I seriously about to leave Kian? I'm doing exactly what I told myself I would never do. I would never leave my partner, I promised I would work through our problems and make things better. Here I was doing exactly the opposite. Things started to get hard, and here I was bailing on him, taking his daughter with me breaking yet another promise I made to myself. I promised I'd never make my kids grow up without one of their parents.
How could I let all of this go? I'm being the type of girl I've always hated. I sat down on the bed and looked up at Kian. I was speechless, I didn't know what to say to him.
"Forget it," Kian said taking a seat next to me. "It's not important right now. Right now we need to talk about us."
"Us?"
Kian nodded and took my hand in his. Rubbing the back of my hand slowly with his thumb, he looked me in the eyes as he continued.
"Hailey, I love you. Only you. I will never love anyone else the way I love you. You're my smile, my frown, my happiness, my headache, my heart, my world, my everything. Without you, I'm nothing. With you I'm so beyond happy, and together we're perfect. Hailey, will you please..." Kian stood up to take something out of hid pocket. He showed me what it was, it was a small square black box. Slowly he got down on one knee never looking away from me. He slowly opened the box revealing a ring, and he took my left hand in his before continuing. "forgive me for every mistake I've ever made in out relationship. I promise I'll do my best to make everyday better than the last, I promise to make you smile, keep you safe, make you feel loved, and to be 100% loyal. Hailey, will you please do me the honor of becoming Mrs. Lawley?"
I stared down at him teats now falling down my cheeks. This was so unexpected. I was speechless. This whole time I thought he was mad at me for believing McKenna, but I was wrong. The sudden realization hit me that I almost missed this. I almost left him here and went back home without a single hesitation. If it wasn't for that picture on the dresser, I would be on my way to the airport right now. I started crying a little harder as I nodded yes because I honestly couldn't get a single word out.
He smiled and took the ring out of the box, slowly slipping it onto my finger. The ring was absolutely breath taking. It had dimaonds all around it, and it was in the shape of my favorite flower, a rose.

After putting the ring on my finger Kian came up and sat back down on the bed beside me. I leaned in closer and wrapped my amrs around his neck pulling him close, he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me onto his lap. I was now sitting on his lap with a leg on either side of him, our faces were so close our noses touched, and if we spoke our lips would brush against each other. I smiled and kissed him passionately, holding him close.
It felt so amazing to know that he wasn't mad at me anymore, and Mckenna was lying. Deep down I knew she was, and I now felt stupid for the way I acted. Would I go back and change it though? No, because then I wouldn't be becoming Mrs. Lawley.
