Ronnie's POV

Our cab pulled up to our street.

Amanda paid and we all got out in a hurry,

Well at least I did.

And there he was.

My mess,

"Ronnie thank god your he- I he wouldn't move" Brennen said shaking.

He looked as though he had just had the worst babysitting job ever,

"Its okay it's fine, we will be inside in a bit. Thank you for taking care of him" I thanked Brennen as I hugged him.

He looked lost for words so he just nodded and walked inside with Devyn, Amanda and Kat.

The gate clicked shut and I sat down next to Colby on the ground.

I don't know why he choose to lean up against our neighbours wall across the street but I wasn't arguing.

His hand latched around mine and squeezed tightly,

"Oh I thought you were passed out" I said in disbelief as he leaned his head back while smiling,

"Remember.. I promised I wouldn't drink again and you know I can't sleep without you beside me so" he said,

"Fair enough" I said.

We sat there on the floor in silence, his head resting on my shoulder,

"So why did you want to see me so badly?" I asked Colby as he traced his fingertips along my arm,

"I missed you, that's all" he said looking down to the ground.

He didn't really think for one second that I would believe that?

Did he?

I sighed and stood up, dusting myself off.

I started to walk back towards the house, leaving him behind.

He wasn't drunk and he wasn't sick.

He was capable of walking.

He was a grown man.

As my hand laced through the metal bars to reach the gate latch,

"I want to have a baby".

My whole body froze and I couldnt work up the courage to turn around,

"I would like to have a child, of my own" he said as his words grew closer.

I managed to turn around and face him,

"Colby.. if this is some sick joke I'm-" I began gritting my teeth but was soon cut off,

"No of course not" he said standing about 10 feet away from me.

I watched him.

I knew when he was lying and I knew when he was joking.

But I also knew when he was being honest and I knew when he was being sincere,

"Wait? Really?" I choked out.

I never knew that he wanted a family.

I though he was fine with just settling down with me and that would be it.

I knew that I wanted a family, a big one but I was willing to give that up for him.

I never knew that I could have both,

"Ron, we are getting married in a week. We are getting pretty serious and i want to settle down, with you and a child. If that sounds appealing to you" he said as he stood still.

He looked terrified.

His words sounded genuine.

Why wouldn't I want to settle down with him and start a family?

He has always been there for me, mentally and physically.

He has been my anchor and calmed me when the sea tried to drown me.

I loved him and I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him.

I took a deep breath and stood tall,

"Yes"
