His Proposal - MATURE VERSION (completed)✔️

Back In LA

Jai pulls the car into the driveway of his place. He pulls the keys out of the ignition and turns to me. "We're moving into the new mansion tomorrow. I gave Nate a choice if he wanted to stay here or move in with us. He told me he's coming with us to the mansion, but he's not going to unpack his things as he'll be leaving soon."

I can't believe it's nearly time for Nate to go into the world and experience it for himself. At least he will know people at his school.

When I moved to New York I didn't have anyone. All my friends wanted to stay in California. I heard a few people from my grade went elsewhere. If anyone went to New York I didn't see them, but it's a big place after all.

Jai walks to my side of the car and he opens the door for me. I step out and wrap my arms around him. He winces. "Be careful, babe. I'm still tender from where the bullet hit the vest."

"I'll get you some ice when we go into the house." I am about to pick up a bag when Jai place his hand over mine.

He shakes his head. "I'm not going to let my pregnant girl carry anything into the house. Go inside and put your feet up. My parents will be here shortly. We can ask them about the stuff you found."

I walk into the house and I move toward the fridge. I pull out a bottle of water and walk over to the lounge. I put my feet up and watch Nate and Jai bring the stuff into the house.

I'm going to start feeling useless when it comes to helping bring stuff into the  house, but I will think of something to keep myself occupied.

In the kitchen I pull out ingredients that I need to make muffins with. I have everything on the table when Jai and Nate walk in with the last bags.

Jai leaves the bags next to the front door and he walks into the kitchen. He wraps his arms around me and whispers. "What are you making?"

"Choc chip muffins," I turn towards him. "I feel useless."

Jai kisses my neck. "Your" kiss "not" kiss "useless." He turns my face so I'm looking at him. "I don't want you to ever feel like that, Chloe. Can I help?"

"Sure," Jai and I whip the batter together before pouring it into the muffin tins.

There's a knock on the door. "I'll get it," Nate yells from the living room. He walks over to the door and he opens.

I hear Veronica and Ricky.

Damn, I forgot to tell Nate about the things I found out about Jai's parents and ours. I will do that now.

I walk over to Nate. "Can I talk to you for a moment." I greet Jai's parent before I take my brother to my room. I sit on the bed and turn towards him. "Did you read Mom's diary?"

"Yes, I can't believe our parents worked for the government, but they left a couple years after you were born. What else do I need to know."

"Mom and Dad faked there deaths. As well as mine. That's why our last names Knights, but before that we went by a different name and our parents knew Veronica and Ricky."

A smile spreads across his face. "Really?"

I nod. "I'm not sure if they will remember us, but I'm going to ask them questions about Mom and Dad. I didn't want you to her surprised when I start talking to them."
