Redefining You and Me

Chapter 04 || What This Will Bring

A/N:

I'm back! I had been working so hard on books on my other account Infinite-Stars that I had completely forgotten about the books over here! I saw Camp Delinquency on a few recommended pages and decided it was time to come back to finish it off! So, be expecting chapters to be written and posted as frequently as I can. I'm currently writing four or five books at the moment, including this one. So if you are impatient and want someting else to read, check out my most actively posted book: Falling for the Criminal on my other account Infinite-Stars (Please go read this masterpiece). Thanks and enjoy! Don't forget to vote/comment/follow! This chapter gets a bit deep and really displays why Addie is so reserved when it comes to getting married.

Check out the second A/N at the bottom that explains the updates and what's to come for this book in the near future!

"Well?" Tyler asked, walking closer to me, "Is this what I think it is?" 

I reach forward, taking the test from his hands, "Yes, it is."

I sit on the edge of the bed and he follows suit, "So are you um-- you know? Pregnant?" 

"According to that, no. But, that's just one test and not even the best one I could get. I'm going to a doctor this week." I sighed and laid back on the bed. 

"Ads, is this why you were freaking out about marriage so much?" He asked, slightly flustered.

"Yes." He laid back too, "Are you scared too?" 

Silence enveloped us both, "Yes." His hand searched for mine, eventually intertwining with mine. "We're unorthodox, but we've always been like that. Whatever happens, I know we'll make it work."  

"You're so optimistic." I exasperated and he laughed. 

"One of us has to be, that's how this all works out in the end." Tyler rolled onto his side, "When is your doctor's appointment?" 

 "Tomorrow after work, if you aren't working, you're welcome to join."  I turned over and met Tyler's gaze, "Why are you so pissed off at Jake?"

"I told you already, didn't I?" 

I rolled my eyes at him and let out a long exasperated sigh, "Come on Ty, tell me the real reason why you two are trying to murder each other with harsh glares and snarky comments."

An expression of sincerity waved over Tyler. He sat up on the bed and motioned for me to do the same. "At the beginning of the month, I had made the mistake of telling Jake that I was going to propose to you. The next week, Jake came in going on and on about his brand new decision to propose to Grace. The whole way Jake proposed to Grace was my idea for you. The restaurant was right off the docks, afterwards I was going to take you out there and tell you this whole speech about meeting you and how our first meaningful conversation happened out on the docks of that lake at camp. Jake stole every aspect of my plans for you. The idea is romantic for everyone, so Grace didn't think anything of it and Jake used that to his advantage. But I think you and I both would have had a deeper feeling if I had actually gotten to go through with it all."

Seeing that I was frozen and speechless, Tyler continued. "I'm sure you're upset with me, marriage has never been one of our most loved topics of conversation. But, I want to start an actual life with you. I'm tired of waiting, haven't we done enough of that?" 

I was still having trouble processing all of the rapid thoughts running through my head. 

Tyler was planning on proposing...
