The Only Exception (H. Styles/ Bwwm)

Chapter Thirty-Six

Finally Done. I sighed out in relief looking around to make sure everything was cleaned and off the only thing left was the trash. But before I could even move, Harry was coming out of the living room grabbing it quickly tying it up and taking it out of the bin.

I rolled my eyes walking over to him "Go sit down, it's your birthday. I got it" I simply stated and he looked at me with a warning glare. "I can take out the garbage babe. You haven't sat down this whole day, the least I can do is take it out since you haven't let me do anything else" he argued and I shrugged letting it go.

Didn't really want to do it anyway so...

As he walked out of the house I stood there smiling looking down at my hand seeing the ring sitting there shining. Jesus Christ. Never thought I would get here. Engaged, so deep in love and ready for my family. I can't believe I was so against this before, I can't believe I almost gave this up.

I squealed dancing in my spot as he came back in laughing as I froze composing myself as he went to the sink to wash his hands.

He turned around smirking at me "Shower?" He suggested and I nodded walking over to him. He held his hand out for me and I gladly accepted him pulling me into him. There were no words just the shared emotion of happy, completed. He didn't have to say anything I knew this one of the happiest days of our lives due to each other. I wasn't in denial but how could things just be so perfect?

He leaned down pressing his lips to mine quickly then kissed my head "So when's the date?" He asked smiling down to me "Date for?" We're we already talking about the wedding? I was ready to start planning- I actually was ready to get married now. Let me clarify.

"Date for you two to finally move in..." he smiled pulling me in making me giggle holding on to him as he kissed my neck "I'm pretty sure we should be good in about two weeks" "Too long. I'm going to ask the guys to help speed up the process" he smiled pressing his lips to mine. I didn't mind it would definitely speed up this process pretty much everything was packed up.

"Impatient... it's not like I'm really ever at home anyway. You keep me here" I teased making him playfully hit my butt "But it will be official, my fiancé and daughter will be with me. That's all I want right now" I put my hands on his chest looking up to me as he smirked watching me. After everything that went through I understood just wanting everything to just be in place for us. It's been one hell of a ride.

"I can't believe it" I whispered shaking my head disbelief looking at the ring again then him as he chuckled.

"You thought I wasn't going to ask eventually? You think I would give you another child without securing us?" He asked acting offended making me laugh shrugging. I wasn't sure, I know he would... just didn't expect it at this time but, I was so fucking happy.

"Renny I want a family with you. I want us. Gabby was a surprise but the next is already planned. You'll have my name before the next is born" he whispered determined as he grabbed my hands kissing each one gently. His thumb ran over my hands gently as I just leaned my head on his chest taking a deep breath.

"I know this is new to you b-" My head snapped up to his quickly looking at him shocked. "Ohh no no no. You thought I would say no?" I questioned pulling away as he laughed shaking his head pulling me back in kissing my head. No way in hell I would be stupid enough to say no to this man that has loved me at not only my worse but my now upgraded best.

"Not no but, maybe too soon? I was going to wait while we got used to this but, Bonnie and my mother weren't having it. Bonnie even called me a pussy for waiting" I closed my eyes trying not to laugh but I couldn't help but picture Eve and Bonnie double teaming him about this. Those two against him, he would never win.

"I just didn't want to push. I wanted to be comfortable going into this not pressured but they just said something about us being made for each other and it was the perfect time... I believed it too so I went for it but, would be okay if you wanted to wait" he reassured as I shook my head frowning.

"Why wait if I want you for the rest of my life? I wouldn't have made it official if I wasn't ready. I just want you by my side till the end Harry... I want you, I want us as a family. Forget the rest" I smiled getting on my toes to press my lips to his. I smiled against his lips "But, I have one more surprise for you..." I smiled as he got even more excited as I grabbed my hand leading him out of the kitchen and down to the basement.

"This isn't some Fifty Shades-" "No but it can be..." I whispered turning to face him and winked giggling. "As long as I get to do the tying up... I have no complaints whatsoever" he simply stated making me shaking my head. As long as he was in control.

"We can talk about it later... but right now, I want to show you something. I finally picked the paintings I want to put in the show" I said excitedly as he laughed. "Wait you're actually letting me see them?" He asked jokingly and I nodded squeezing his hand going down the steps.

"If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even be doing this right now... I wouldn't be so happy and proud of this so you get the gift of seeing them before I give them the paintings" I stopped pushing the door open excitedly and cutting the lights on.

He scanned the room looking at the five paintings hanging on the wall with the last one covered. He looked at them smiling walking closer to them studying each one as I walked over to the table with the camera on it. I cut it on making sure it would capture this perfect moment.

He looked back confused "I thought you could only have four..." "The last one is just a special one for you. Another gift" I said excited "You painted me like a superhero again?" He asked making me laugh shaking my head.

"I think this might be a bit better" I smiled motioning for him to look at it. He looked at me then the covered painting smiling as he walked over to it. I couldn't deny every step he took to the picture I got more excited for him to see.

Once he pulled the sheet off he stood there silent for a few seconds taking in every detail as I walked closer to him smiling. Shouldn't take long.

It was a basic drawing Harry, Gabby and me but something was different about me. He took a deep breath then looked back to me "The stomach..." he whispered with his finger on it shaking on my stomach in the picture.

I smiled biting my lip walking closer to him as his eyes stayed wide on me then went down to my stomach.

"Ren.. are you..."

"Pregnant" I whispered out making his mouth drop as he stood there in shock for a few seconds and then he was lunging at me and picking me up making me laugh. I wrapped my legs around him giggling as I held onto him.

"Oh my gosh... I can't believe this. Wait I thought you took a test-" "I lied... thought it would be the perfect gift for you. Eve gave me the idea" I laughed as he kissed my cheek holding me tightly to him. I couldn't help but share that same excitement. Holding that secret in was so much harder than I expected especially when he's talking about adding another family member all the time and he's jumping on me at any given chance.

But I loved just how ready and supportive he was with this process. I'm so happy this happen so quickly but it could have been way longer and he was so patient. That's why giving him this was everything. Having another child, a family with this man is all we want with each other and we were in transit.

He just seemed speechless "Guess we need to speed up the wedding then huh?" I joked laughing as he joined kissing my head. "We can get married whenever you're ready...tomorrow... you're already my wife in my eyes"

I took a deep breath resting my head on against his silent. "Really?" I asked as looked me in my eyes nodding "Yes. All I want is you"

Fuck it.

"Let's go get married"
