model [Cole x KJ] [Jarchie] [boyxboy]

ch. 23

Cole was on his phone, just checking a quick message as I fumbled with the box in my pocket, what if he said no? We hadn't been dating for the longest amount of time, a year perhaps, but what will others think?

No, no I don't- we don't need that kind of thinking tonight. Tonight was going to be a good night.

"Hey Cole, can you set the phone down please?" I asked politely, Cole nodding and setting his phone in his lap and bringing his eyes up to mine.

"Yeah what's up? Did you ask for the check yet?"

"Yes, but I want to ask you something."

"Shoot for it." Cole replied, as I took a deep breath and took both of his hands into mine.

"We, you, have made me so incredibly happy this past year."

"Year and 3-"

"Yes, and we have both been through so much together, what with all the horrible horrible things this world has to offer, there's so much you offer me everyday. Cole, your soul is oh so kind and pure, and you bring me coffee every morning and you paint your nails with me and we watch movies and do silly, yet stupid stupid things together and it just makes me so happy."

"But..." Cole said, bringing his eyes down to our hands.

"But, there's just something missing."

"KJ..."

"A ring, for the most breathtaking person in my world. Will you, Coke- ahem, Cole Sprouse, take me as your husband? Will you marry me?" I finally asked, breaths heavy as I got down on one knee and pulled out the ring.

Tears began to stream down Cole's face as he brought his hands up to hide his face. I quickly stood up and pulled him into a hug.

"Shh you're okay."

"Yes. Yes yes yes." Cole whispered as he laughed and brought his lips to mine.

People all around us began to clap and cheer, and we both laughed as I put the ring on Cole's finger, and brushed away his tears.

"I love you KJ." He told me.

"I love you more."

"Can't complain about that, you just gave me a ring." Cole replied as we both let out a laugh.

The first snowfall of the year, and it's Christmas morning. Cole and I were newly engaged as of a few days ago, and we were spending our holiday together at home. We sent the staff home for the holidays, so we could both enjoy our first Christmas together all alone.

I pressed a kiss to Cole's lips, bringing my cold hands down under the covers to the small of his back, making him let out a yelp.

"Good morning beautiful. Merry Christmas."

"Mmm. Merry Christmas." Cole replied with a groggy voice, uninterested.

"Oh c'mon, do you want me to make you breakfast before we go open some presents? And then later we were invited to Lili and Camila's house. The whole lot will be there."

"Do we really have to see Lili on Christmas?" He groaned, rolling over.

"Well it's only nice if we do. Get up, I'll go start making your favourite while you get dressed and ready okay?" I kissed his forehead and left the room, quickly getting ready and heading over to the kitchen to make him breakfast.

I decided to make something simple, avocado on toast with a bacon and cheese omelet on the side. Cole came downstairs with a beige/creamy colored sweater on, with black sweats and messy bed head hair.
