Pretty Little Lady [Slow Updates]

Tamera.

I lay in my bed with a migraine, where was CJ? I felt like I needed to throw up and my head was pounding. He said he was in the kitchen making me something to eat but he was taking too long. I waited a little while longer before going to check on him myself.

Slowly I got up and slid on my furry slides so my feet wouldn't ache as badly from the non-carpeted floor. I walked out of his room and went straight to the kitchen where I smelled something delicious.

"Babe?" I sighed out when heard other voices. "CJ?"

When I came to my destination I froze, he was crying. Looking at a video I knew all too well.

"CJ, what're you do-"

"I can't stop!" He yelled causing me to step back and grab onto the wall for support. "Look at what he's doing to you and I wasn't there to help you."

I watched as the tears fell from his eyes and he held on tightly to his phone. I haven't seen him cry since he first found out.

"No, love, don't cry," I walked over to him. "It's okay, I'm fine now-"

"No you're not," he looked at my stomach before frowning. "His child is in you, you're not fine, you're never going to be fine," he shook his head as I slowly wiped his tears with the pad of my thumb. "Tamera, I could've been there for you. I could've stopped him, I-I- could've killed him for putting his dirty hands on what's mine." He said through gritted teeth and I held his face in my hands.

"Shh, CJ, the police are looking for him, now-"

"Why'd you call them?" He mumbled and I raised a brow.

"Come again."

"I could've handled him and had no trace of his body anywhere," he pulled me close before leaning his chin on my head. "You know what I'm capable of, my love."

"Yes," I cuddled into his chest before smiling. "But I don't want you to get hurt or caught."

"Believe me, I've done many things I regret, but I've never been caught." It was quiet for a while before I felt tears appearing in my eyes.

"He kept saying her name." I whispered and sucked in breath so a loud sob wouldn't escape.

"I know, I know," he rubbed my back and kissed my head. "Just don't think about it. He's a sick son of a bitch," he shook his head before lifting my head and smiling. "I'll take care of you and I'll never leave your side."

"Promise?"

"Swear 'fo God." I gave a smile and playfully hit his arm as he grinned.

"Say it right, CJ." I whined and he grew serious while taking something from his pocket.

My jaw dropped when he slowly got down on one knee. He lifted a velvet box and breathed in deeply.

"I promise, I will love you and take care of you from this day forward like I was supposed to. I will cherish you and show you what true love is. I will help you take care of this baby as if it's my own," he pulled the ring out and I felt more tears fall from my eyes. "I fucking love you with every breath in my body, Tamera. When we get in our later 20s I want to have little Tamera's and Cj's running around here. I want all of this with you, the woman I love."

"Oh my God, C-"

"Will you marry me, Tamera?" He asked holding up the ring and softly grabbing my hand.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" I yelled hugging him around the neck and kissing his lips.

He kissed me back with the same amount of passion before slipping the ring on my finger.
