Chapter 1
"Alex, stay with me. Please, Alex stay with me."
Four hours earlier
Alex was rushing around making sure he had everything perfect for tonight. Tonight was the night that he was going to propose to Jo again and she was going to say yes this time.
He had it all planned out, a nice dinner at the best Italian restaurant in town and he had his own idea for dessert. He got home just before Jo, so he could surprise her.
"Hey" "Hey yourself, what did you do? You look out of breath." Jo walks over to Alex with a concerned look on her face. "Are you alright?"
"Yea, I'm fine. Why do you look like you're worried about me? " "I'm not, something just seems up, that's all."
Alex shrugs off her comment and continues over to his drawer where the ring still is. Jo walks toward the kitchen to grab a ginger ale. When Alex knew she was out of sight, he quickly grabbed the ring and put it in his pocket.
"You wanna go grab a bite to eat for dinner?" "Eh, I am not that hungry." Truth was she hadn't been feeling well, the past week and she just recently found out why. She was pregnant, but she didn't want to tell Alex just yet.
"Well you will be when we get there. I was thinking Nemo's? Does that sound good?" "Sure. I guess I could go for Italian."
Alex gave a small smile, placed a kiss on her cheek and led her out the door.
"Wait here. Let me go see if there's a table." "Alright." Alex walked into Nemo's gave his name for his reservation and they told him his table was ready. He called Jo and told her to come in.
"Hi, my name is John and I'll be your waiter tonight. Can I get you anything to drink?" "A bottle of Champagne would be good. Thank you."
"Alex, why did you want to come to such a nice place on a Tuesday night? I was not prepared, I feel so under dressed." "You look beautiful, don't worry about it. What are you thinking you're going to have?"
"Maybe the Chicken Francese, oh and maybe some stuffed shells. Wait no that's too much. I'll just have the chicken Parmesan." Alex shakes his head and laughs, "You go from not wanting to come because you aren't hungry to wanting everything on the menu. You sure, you are alright?"
She didn't want to say right now, well yes but I'm pregnant, so my appetite changes. She went with, "Yea, realized you were right and I am hungry" instead.
The waiter came back with the champagne just in time, took their order and went back to the kitchen. Jo was worried how the whole, oh no champagne for me, conversation was going to go. She was about to find out.
Alex poured champagne for both of them and then reached into his pocket. Jo saw Alex reach into his pocket, so she poured some of her glass into the champagne bucket. She didn't want to make it obvious and dump the whole thing.
Alex turn back around and Jo noticed a small box. Her face froze, is that what she thinks it is? Is he going to propose again? She was ready this time; she was going to say yes. It had been six months since he last proposed and things definitely changed for the better. She had a plan, after she said yes; she was going to tell him about the baby.
He opened the box. Walked to her side of the table and got down on one knee. "Jo, you mean everything to me. We have been through a lot together and I never stopped loving you. I'm here in your corner and I'm not going anywhere. Will you marry me?"
How the tears got to her eyes, she didn't know, but they were there. His proposal was beautiful, she couldn't say no. She loved him and there was nothing that could or would change that. "Yes. Yes of course I will marry you." The two of them hugged and she cried even more. This was one of the happiest days of her life everything was perfect.
She said yes. He was so happy, he couldn't even speak all he could do was just hug her and never let her go. After about five min, if happy crying the two broke the hug. Before Alex could get up, Jo stopped him. "Wait Alex, there's something I have to tell you." Fear struck his face, what did she have to tell him. He was worried.
"Alex, I'm pregnant. " He could not believe what he heard, not only did he get engaged today, but he also found out that he was going to be a father. This night could not get any better.
"Are you serious? Jo, this is amazing." "You're happy? " he shook his head and hugged her again. "You mean you're really happy?" "Yes, Yes, why wouldn't I be? Al I have ever wanted is to be married to you and have children with you."
The words made her heart melt, she never thought that she would get married and have children, but now that it was happening and with Alex she could not imagine anything else.
-Later that night-
"I can't believe we are getting married and having a baby." "I know this night could not have gone better."
They were driving home from the restaurant beaming. This night was amazing and the perfect way to start their new chapter. Nothing could ruin this moment, nothing.
"Alex! Watch out!" crash they were driving through a green light when a car came through the opposite red light and hit their car on his side.
