Chapter 27

I ran.

I got up and sprinted out of the room, Holey Mother of God. Jay just asked me if I wanted to marry him. Smart person would bawl their eyes out in happiness but no.I'm the idiot that turned to shock and ran for the hills.

He wants to marry me.

And I ran.

Seemingly if I had stayed I'd probably be wrapped up in his arms and cradellled like a baby, who would be grinning so much my cheeks would be sore but no I panicked and ran. Not like I wasn't going to say no just I panicked and I don't really know if I want too. Is it too early? I love him sure but marrige is a huge committment, actually it's just a piece of papaer

My parents never got married because they didn't want a piece of paper telling each other they loved them. As stupid as it sounds it kinda sounds right, why would a piece of paper define how much you love each other. But I'm still running I don't know where but I'm running purely from shock

"Why are you running?" Malise said

"Because I can" I huffed

"He loves us, so you shouldn't be running away"

"I just panicked Malise, I just need a minute" I asked

She cut me off at my request and I nodded my head in gratitude for the privacy. Why am I running?

Clearly when I was working out I dropped my brain as well, Do I want to get married? whilst in the situation we're in now. With Damon and everyone literally attacking me things are just so corrupted and now is not a good time for a marriage

"Abby?"

I spun around to Jay's voice and he looked errily calm for a person who ran from a proposal. He gave a boyish grin and stepped towards me, his hands brushed my cheeks when he cupped my face and rested his forehead to mine.

He's so calm it's scaring me to death

"How would I know you'd run?" he mused pecking my lips

I raised an eyebrow but couldn't help but smile, it's like he knows me all too well, I ran and but didn't make it very far. I'm not scared at all to marry him its just the sudden question shocked me and I got scared

"You didn't let me finish" he smiled throwing his arm over my shoulder

We started walking back to the house quickly because I started to shake from the cold weather. My teeth were actually chattering

"I didn't propose to you"

I stopped mid-step to look at him, he had an amused smiled on his face but it didn't quite reach his eyes. Something was hidden beneath those beautiful eyes but I can't tell

"I merely asked if you'd consider it" he smiled pushing me lightly to continue walking

"But you asked me just a minute ago" I stuttered

"Yes, but if and when I propose to you it will be special" he stopped to kiss my cheek "because you deserve it"

Those words made me held my breath, he wasn't proposing he was asking. Makes sense. A speical proposal is planned? Don't I feel loved. Giggling like a little kid I tip toed to peck his lips

He smiled down to me

"What was that for?"

"Nothing" I said matching his smile

"Ok then lets get you too bed" picking me up I let his warmth and caramel scent wrap me up

Placing me on the bed I curled up on my side in a ball, Jay slipped in next to me wrapping me up in his arms from behind. Shifting to get more comfortable he groaned
