Mr. Sartorius

epilogue

~ jacobs pov

i remember the day me and charlotte became engaged like it was yesterday. the proposal. god. it meant so much to me. i remember the massive smile me and all my friends and family had on our faces. and paris. wow. that is a trip i'll never forget.
theres no better way to spend your time. newly engaged. in the city of love with your fiancé. drinking cocktails, watching the sunset, exploring, nights in the hotel-

"jacob?"
a soft voice breaks my thoughts, ruining the flashback to my past.

"yeah?" i smile, staring at my mom ahead of me. she smiles.
"charlottes got a surprise waiting for you upstairs."

i chuckle slightly. charlottes always full of little surprises, it's one of the many, many, MANY things i love about her. 

i walk out the door of my living room, and into the hallway.
there's roses leading up the stairs. how did she do all this so quickly? i laugh to myself slightly.
i was only at the store.

i follow the roses , looking behind me and seeing my mom watch me as i walk slowly.
"what's going on?" i shout down to her and she shrugs her shoulders.

"charlotte?" i shout, as i make it to the top of the stairs.
all the doors are closed minus one.
"where are you?"

i knock on the door, before pulling it open by the handle.
"charlotte-"

theres a note lying on the floor. i bend down and pick it up.

"surprise!" charlotte jumps out smiling at me. i pull her into a hug and kiss her forehead gently.
"what's this for?" i giggle, before kissing her lips.
"open the note."

i nod, and begin to open the note. it's in a very small envelope, with a blue and pink ribbon.
the ribbon unties itself lightly. and the note unfolds in my hands.

"je suis enceinte"

i read the note twice, knowing it's in french.
"i thought we both established from paris that my french is absolutely horrible." i laugh, handing her the note.

"je suis enceinte" she repeats, and kisses my lips softly.
"i'm pregnant."

a massive smile appears on her face.
"you're gonna be a dad jacob."

i feel tears form in my eyes. not only a few years ago did i marry the woman that i want to spend the rest of my life with, but now i'm lucky enough to be blessed with a child.
the girl i love is carrying my baby.

i pick her up and kiss her lips passionately. she kisses me back, and pulls her hands through my hair.

"we're gonna be parents j."
she smiles as i place her down.

"im the luckiest person in the world." i hear a voice from behind say, as in walks my mom with my dad and sister.

"we're gonna be grandparents." my dad smiles at us both, bringing me and charlotte into a group hug.

"i'm in love with you, charlotte sartorius." i whisper into her ear.

"i'm in love with you two mr sartorius." she replies. kissing my cheek gently.
