-2 months later-

I wake up in the morning and go to Hailey's room.

"Hi babygirl." I say picking her up.

She looks at me and grins. Hailey sticks out her arms and grabs my shirt.

I take that as a sign to feed her so I do. When I finish I take her out into the living room and sit her down in her play pen.

I go make breakfast for me and Jeff which consisted of eggs, fruit, and bacon.

"Good morning." I hear Jeff say from behind me.

"Good morning." I say smiling at him.

He kisses my cheek before sneaking a piece of bacon. He grins at me before sitting down at the island.

"So I'm planning on going on a hike today, do you wanna come and bring Hailey?" He asks.

"Yeah, sounds like fun." I say while finishing up the breakfast.

"Cool, so let's go around 9." He says.

I nod my head as I dish out the food onto plates. I turn around and give Jeff his plate and I see him holding Hailey on his lap.

Jeff puts Hailey's pacifier in her mouth and she giggles. Jeff kisses her head before eating his breakfast.

When he finishes goes to change into his hiking clothes. I clean up the dishes and take Hailey to go change.

I put her in this:

I grab Hailey's backpack carrier and put it in the car. Jeff grabs Nerf's backpack carrier and puts in next to Hailey's.

Nerf gets in the car and I put Hailey in her seat. Jeff and I get in up front and I start the car.

We make it to the hiking spot and get everything out. I put Hailey in the carrier and put it on my back. Jeff does the same with Nerf but puts him on his back.

I lock the car and we start the hike.

-around 45 minutes later-

We get to the top of the mountain and I see Todd, David, Ellie, and Teddy there. David was filming us as we got there.

I give Jeff a confused look and he smiles at me.

"Ellie, can you take Hailey?" Jeff asks.

She nods and grabs Hailey off my back. Jeff gives Nerf to Teddy and Todd.

Jeff bends down on one knee and looks up at me.

"I've known you for over a year now Paisley. You're the mother of my child and the love of my life. I love you so much and can't see my life without you. So, Paisley Leigh Gonzalez, will you marry me?" He asks pulling out a box and opening it.

I gasp at the ring inside of it and nod my head. He puts the ring on my finger and stands up. He kisses me and picks me up, spinning me around.

I pull away and look at him with tears running down my cheeks. He smiles at me and all of our friends are clapping.

Jeff sits me down on the ground and puts Nerf back on his back and I do the same with Hailey.

"Congratulations Paisley." Ellie says.

"Thanks Ellie." I say hugging her.

"Congrats Paidoh." David says wrapping his arms around me.

"Thanks DaveMan." I say laughing.

He pulls away and goes over to Jeff and talks to him.

Todd and Teddy hug me and do the same with Jeff. They say bye leaving me, Jeff, Hailey, and Nerf.

"Ready to go home?" Jeff asks.

"Yeah. Is Hailey asleep?" I ask.

Jeff nods his head and then we start heading down the path.

When we make it to the bottom I unlock the car and put Hailey in her carseat careful not to wake her. Jeff puts Nerf down in the car and he curls up in a ball and falls asleep.

I get in the passenger seat and hand the keys to Jeff. He starts the car and backs out.

He grabs my hand and holds it the whole drive back home.

When we make it home, Hailey and Nerf both woke up. I look back at Hailey and grin at her. She giggles in response making me laugh.

I get out of the car and go get Hailey out. Nerf follows and goes up to the door. I open the door and he runs in. Jeff and I walk in with me still carrying Hailey who was starting to fall asleep again.

I gently place Hailey in her crib and see she's fast asleep. I turn off the light and walk out of the room quietly shutting the door. Jeff was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed. I go over and sit next to him leaning my head on his shoulder.

I feel his arm wrap around my shoulder and smile. He kisses the top of my head. I look up at him and kiss him.

"I can't wait to marry you princess." He says.

"Neither can I baby." I say.

-later that day-

Currently we are at a dinner with all of our friends. Hailey was sitting at the end in a high chair and I was sitting next to her with Jeff to my left.

"So, you guys are engaged." Matt says.

"Yeah. Honestly, I don't think I could picture myself with anyone else." I say grabbing Jeff's hand.

He smiles at me and nods in agreement.

"Neither could I. She's perfect and I love her so much." He says kissing my cheek.

"You guys are so cute together." Carly says.

"Thanks Carly." We say.

"Don't break her heart Jeff or I will kill you." Erin says.

Jeff laughs nervously and Erin grins and laughs at him.

"I'm joking." Erin says.

"I'll kill you though." David says.

"Okay then. Can we switch to a different topic now?" I ask making everyone laugh.

"Of course." Zane says.

The rest of the dinner, we eat, talk, and laugh. When we're done David pays for us all and we thank him.

We hug each other before heading back to our own homes.

We make it home and put Hailey down for the night. Nerf was asleep in his dog bed which was in the living room.

Jeff and I head to our room and go to bed.

"I love you Paisley." He says kissing me.

"I love you too." I say.

I wrap my arms around him and fall asleep.
