Not your typical baby mama

Bam! Zach kicked the door close once they reached their room. He turned to let her lean against it whilst in his arms. Their make out session had resumed somewhere along the way. He broke the kiss, not just to let them catch their breaths but-

Gasp! Amy's mouth fell open and her eyes expressed the genuine surprise. He gently let her down and watched her walk ahead to stand a few feet away from him as she took in the room.

Creamwhite scented candles lit up a path of red rose petals. There were red roses arrangements in glass vases on the floor, balloons in white, black and gold. The little candle path led to the lounge area that had rose petals arranged in a heart shape on the floor with LED lights illuminating the spot.

The curtains had been drawn close leaving LED lights dimming the place and giving a beautiful romantic vibe. The white ceiling was dark with a sea of stars illuminating on it. It was their room but she felt like she had walked into a whole different place on a beautiful night. She looked back at him and touched her chest as tears brimmed in her eyes. She had no words for him, for everything.

That was his cue to walk over and take her hand in his. They walked over to the lounge and stood in the middle of the heart. Amy felt her heart would explode in her chest in that moment.

"What's all this? When did you....?"

"When I left you with Suzy", he said. Unbeknownst to her, Zach was very nervous too. "Do you like it?"

"I love it. This is.... This is beautiful.... I don't know what to say", she said with a smile.

"Then allow me to say something", he reached out his hand to wipe a fallen tear on her cheek. She nodded in response. "Amy."

She answered with a nod not trusting herself to verbally answer without breaking out in a sob. He took both her hands and kissed the knuckles before letting out a deep breath.

"When I think back on how we met, it blows my mind. Everytime I think back to that moment, I can't help but think how lucky I was to have fallen into that situation. It's because I met the love of my life. I met you."

Amy sniffled as tears fell down her cheeks. She didn't wipe them as Zach was doing that for her as he spoke.

"When you left, you were only a stranger to me yet, it felt like a part of me had left too. Realizing that you were the love of my life, that very reason pushed me to look for you and I never gave up. I promised myself that I would not let you go once I found you. Well...", He slowly got down on one knee.

Amy brought a hand to her face to shield her crying face. This was so unexpected. Zach felt his eyes sting with tears but he swallowed a hard lump and maintained composure. The moment was emotional for the both of them.

"I know the situation is not ideal at the moment but I want to be there for you, help you and protect you no matter what comes our way. I strongly believe that this problem will soon come to an end. And when that happens, Amy.....", He reached for his back pocket and retrieved a black velvety box to reveal a 10 carat diamond ring. The band was simply pure silver with no extra decorations. It was simply beautiful.

"Will you marry me?"

She sniffled and her face slightly pulled into a frown. "I understand everything you're saying but..... Are you just saying this because of the baby? I don't want you to feel pressured into-"

"Amy, I'm in love with you. I have been from the moment we met. My decision right now would be the same even if the baby was not in the picture."

"You're in love with me?"

"I am. I'm crazy about you", he admitted.

She chuckled as she took in the genuineness in his eyes. He meant every word he just said, she could feel it. And in her heart, there were no doubts nor a voice in the back of her mind saying otherwise. It all felt right like this was supposed to happen.

"Yes."

"Yes?" He echoed with surprise. Her silence had thrown him in a mental panic only to receive this answer.

"Yes", she giggled. "I'll marry you."

He immediately stood up and grabbed the back of her neck to crush his lips against hers. Tears rolled down her cheeks when she closed her eyes to reciprocate the kiss. They both relaxed against the kiss before breaking it. Zach took the cold object and slid into her ring finger. Amy felt giddy as she looked at it. He watched the happy smile that played on her lips as she marveled at the ring's beauty.

"It's so beautiful", she whispered thought staring at the ring in awe.

He took her in his arms and patted her head. She relaxed in embrace. Zach inhaled her floral scent and let himself relax too as he rested his chin atop her head. They didn't say anything and simply let the current situation sink in. At least that's what Zach thought Amy was doing too.

"I thought we came to fuck", she whispered.

He let out an amused laugh as he slightly pulled away and looked down at her. "Someone is impatient."

She buried her face in his chest to hide her blush. He resumed hugging her with his chin on her head. Realization dawned on her and she giggled at the thought.

"You know, we skipped the boyfriend-girlfriend part."

"That's because you are meant to be my wife and not just a girlfriend." He briefly fell quiet before he spoke again. "Thank you, Amy."

She was about to ask what for when he pulled away and cupped her cheek. His eyes were slightly shaky. He seemed nervous again... But what for? And she got her answer. It felt like the world had fallen quiet and vacant leaving just the two of them in that moment in time.

"I love you."

A warm and happy smile bloomed on her features. Her heart fluttered as those three words sunk in. No questions asked, she felt the same way. "I love you too."
