One Kiss - Mayans MC

Chapter Thirty-One

My eyes flying open, I feel the weight of Nestor's arm around my waist. Wiggling out, I quietly slip out of bed, grabbing my phone of the nightstand I quietly exit his room.

Heading outside to the beach I sit down in the sand, lost in thought I watch the waves crash against the shore.

"Popular spot tonight" I hear Miguel's voice from behind me.

"Well it is the hottest spot in town" I reply laughing.

Miguel sits down beside me and we watch the waves for a few moments in silence.

"Penny for your thoughts?" I ask, watching him out of the corner of my eye. His face is illuminated by the moonlight, his face weary.

"This past year has been exhausting and I wonder if I made the right choices" He muses.

"Does it really matter? You can't go back and change it even if you made the wrong ones" I reply.

"What about you? What brings you out here tonight?" he asks stretching his legs out.

"I'm trying to figure out how to stop running" I tell him.

"Then you should probably get back to bed before he wakes up and realises your gone" Miguel replies smirking.

"Nothing in this house happens without you knowing does it?" I ask standing up, holding out my hand for him.

Taking it I pull Miguel up and we start to walk towards the house, as we reach the stairs he stops me.

"Cami, I hope you understand the weight of this decision and the consequences. if he loses you again, I don't think I can save him" Miguel says softly.

"The only thing I'm sure of is that I love him, the rest is up to fate" I tell Miguel wrapping my arms around him I squeeze tightly.

"You're a good man Miguel" I tell him pulling away.

Walking back down the corridor I slip back into Nestor's bedroom, I shouldn't be surprised to see him awake, sitting in the armchair.

"Hey you" I say softly, walking over to him, I slide into his lap resting my head on his shoulder.

"What happened to not sneaking out in the middle of the night?" he asks, pulling me closer.

"Don't worry, I didn't have cold feet, I just needed a moment" I tell him, kissing his shoulder.

"What did Miguel have to say?" he asks softly.

"Oh you know, usual big brother stuff, threatened to feed me to the fishes if I break your heart" I reply lightly, I feel Nestor tense under me, looking up at him, I cup his face.

"I am kidding" I tell him "we just talked."

Sliding out of his lap I hold out my hand "come on, let's go back to bed" I say.

Nestor slides his hand into mine as he stands up and we climb back into bed, snuggling into his chest I feel his other arm stretching out to the bedside table.

"What are you doing?" I ask

"Cami, six years ago I saw you across a crowded club and your smile lit up my whole world. I've spent the last six years trying to figure you out, but all I've managed to do is grow more confused and head over heels in love with you" he says pausing "I have travelled the world and no one else even comes close to the light you bring into my life"

Sitting up looking at him, his hand strokes my cheek "You are my forever, and I know we've done this whole thing wrong, so this feels so right. Camila Baker, will you marry me?" he asks me his voice shaking over the last past.

"What?" I whisper, my eyes growing wide.

Nestor takes my left hand, sliding a simple plain band with a round black diamond in the centre.

Looking from the ring to him I realise he is serious.

"Ness" my voice barely above a whisper, clearing my throat I brush the tears off my cheeks "Nessy I promise I will spend the rest of our lives confusing you" I reply.

Climbing onto his waist, I wrap my arms around his neck, kissing him deeply, his fingers sliding into my hair his kiss fierce.

"So is that a yes?" he asks as I break the kiss.

"That is definitely a yes" I reply.
