"Marry me." I say.

Everything Mitch said to me makes me realize that I want to do this right. I want us to be married before our kid is born. I don't even know where it came from.

Mitch just looked at me. "Uh-um. I'm sorry, come again?" He looks at me with wide eyes and raised eyebrows.

"Marry me, Mitch." I repeat. I'm not sure if he's understanding the words leaving my mouth.

He laughs. "I'm sorry. I keep hearing you say "marry me"."

"That's because I am. Mitch, what you just did...admitting your wrong is a huge thing that most people can't do. And I swear, I just fell in love with you all over again." I pull him off the table so he's standing and look at him. "I want us to be a family. A proper one. Where our baby has two parents that are happily married." I tell him.

He looks like he still doesn't get it. He sputters. "How in the world, out of everything I just said, did you get marry me?" He says. He's so confused. "I don't understand. Out of all the things I said during that rant, and the only thing you can come up with is "marry me"?" He shrieks.

I see Kevin walk in but mitch stops him. "No! Out!" Mitch says quickly. Kevin's hand shoots up in a surrender and he walks out. Mitch puts his hand to his head. "I...huh?"

I chuckle. "I love you Mitch. And I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

"...you already...are...?" He pointed out. He isn't getting it.

"Well, yes. But I mean legally, I guess." I shrug.

"I-I...But-but...I don't understand." He shakes his head. "You just told me outside how much you don't want to be around me and that you cant keep up with me and my mood swings an-" I kiss him.

He stops talking and its like I can feel him melt. "Shut up, Mitch." I say when I pull back.

He laughs and nods. I grab his hand. "I know what I said earlier. And I shouldn't have said it. You're pregnant. The mother of my child. You don't ever need to doubt that I'll be there. From now on, I'm yours." I say.

"And why's that?" He smiles.

"Because you're mine." He's got tears in his eyes. I kiss his hand and get down on one knee. His eyes get wide once it hits him.

"Now, I don't have a ring, but that doesn't matter right now." He chuckles as the tears fall. "I love you, so much, Mitch. And I want to prove that to you, if you'll let me. I want to help you. Though this, through anything and everything. I want to make you." I place a hand on his stomach. "And this little bean, as happy as possible. So, Mitch. Will you do me the honor of becoming my husband...or well, wife, I guess." I chuckle.

He just laughs and covers his mouth as he sobs. "Scotty..."

"You're the most beautiful person that I know. You're so caring and protective and know you're going to be an amazing mother because of that and so much more." I look at him, tears forming in my eyes. I love this boy so much.

He just looks at me.
