"Danielle's so lucky, she got to have a fairytale wedding" complained Miley as they got into bed after saying goodnight to her mom. Nick smiled over at her.
"One day it will be you and me up there, and you will be the princess" he said as he pulled up the covers. Miley looked over at him about to reply when Jamie woke for his evening feeding. By the time she got back he was asleep. She got into the bed smiling, he had brought up marriage and made it clear that he wanted to marry her, one day.
Chapter 26
"Morning sleepy head" said Nick. Miley rolled over and yawned.
"What time is it?" she asked.
"Almost 12" replied Nick.
"Why'd you let me sleep so late? Didn't you need help with Jamie, with breakfast?" she asked.
"I got it covered, besides after last night I knew you would be tired" replied Nick as he placed a tray in front of her.
"You were out just as late as me, and how come I get breakfast in bed? My birthday was yesterday" said Miley.
"I know, just thought it would be nice to have it two days in a row, I'll see you downstairs when you're done" said Nick. Miley smiled and took a bite of the pancakes in front of her. Yesterday had been her 18th birthday. As she remembered the night, which had been great, she felt kinda disappointed. She had half hoped Nick would propose. When he gave her her present her smile faltered a bit when she discovered beautiful earrings instead of a ring. The boxes were so alike, but at least he didn't get down on one knee to give her the earrings, now that would have been bad. Miley finished her breakfast and started to get dressed. As she did she thought of her evening, tonight she and Nick were going out for a romantic meal just the two of them. Nick had wanted to do this on the night of her birthday but her family had insisted on a party.
"Morning" said Miley as she walked into the living room.
"Mama" said Jamie stretching out his arms for a hug. Miley grinned and hugged her baby,he was growing up so fast, she wouldn't be able to call him her baby soon. In two months he would be two years old.
"So the reservations are for 7pm this evening" said Nick "And I'm definitely gonna order the cheesecake for desert".
Miley nodded, she was looking foreword to tonight but she didn't want to start to think that Nick would propose, when nothing happened last night it was hard to not feel upset.
That evening Miley put on her new red dress, she knew that Nick had a fascination with her in red dresses. She let her hair down in loose curls and slipped on her shoes.
"Ready" said Miley as she came down the stairs.
"Great, I'll just bring Jamie into my parents" said Nick as he opened the door to the main Lucas household. Miley followed him and smiled as she saw Jamie beaming at Joe.
"Uncy Joey!" he giggled. Joe was really great with kids, sure he would never be good at dicipline, but that's where Bex came in. Miley knew that if they got married they would be great parents.
"Will I order a pizza for dinner guys? I'm not in the mood for cooking" said Nicks mom to Joe, Bex, Kevin and Danielle who were visiting and Paul.
"Sure that sounds great" replied Kevin.
"Ok well we're off, be back later, thanks guys" said Nick as he took Mileys hand. Nick got in the drivers seat of his car and Miley got in the passenger seat.
"So when have you gone to this restaurant before?" asked Miley.
"I went once before for a family dinner about two years ago, trust me you'll love it" said Nick. However Nick first drove them to a nearby lake to see the sunset.
"Nicky, this is perfect" said Miley, she loved sunsets, anyone could guess that by her desktop background. They arrived at the restaurant an hour later. It was easier to go out places now since Miley and Nick became a boring couple in the eyes of the media. Instead they followed the new 'it' couple, Cassie and Brett, who were often seen at parties and clubs all the time, not to mention that they were not afraid to display their affection for one another in public. They entered the restaurant and Nick told them the reservation. The waiter smiled and led them to the back. He opened a door, Miley looked inside and noticed it was pitch black.
"So are we gonna eat in the dark?" asked Miley. Nick chuckled.
"No, you'll see that the lights in this room work perfectly fine" said the waiter as he turned and walked off. Miley looked puzzled at Nick. He took her hand and walked into the room, closing the door behind him.
"Now" said Nick. Someone turned on the light and Miley was astonished to see all her friends and family again. Nicks family were there too and Joe was holding Jamie. She saw her grandmother sitting at a table smiling at her.
"Mami, we brought you to the airport last night" said Miley.
"Yes, but that doesn't mean I got on a plane and left" replied Mami.
"But why...?" Miley asked.
"Miles, Nick has something to ask you" said her dad, he smiled at his little girl, she was a young woman now. Miley turned to her left and saw Nick on one knee. Miley gasped. This was it, he was going to propose!
"Miley Ray Stewart, I love you with all my heart, we've been though a lot together these past few years, It's been wonderful and stressful at the same time. I now have a very important question to ask you, since I have your fathers blessing, I must now ask you, Will you do me the honour, of being my wife?" asked Nick. Miley felt a tear roll down her cheek, the proposal was so perfect, everything she could have wanted. She held out her trembling hand in front of the ring Nick was holding.
"Do I take that as a yes?" asked Nick. She nodded and smiled.
"Yes" she replied. Family and Friends cheered and Nick stood up to kiss Miley.
"Told you you'd be my princess" whispered Nick.
The newlywed couple stood at the man's parents house. The couple had been married for two months now and they had some news for their family.
"How'd you think they'll take it?" asked the woman.
"They'll be thrilled, of course! Grandkids are all grandparents want, the more the better!" replied the man. The woman smiled and rubbed her stomach. This was a honeymoon baby. They had found out two weeks ago and thought the family barbecue today would be a good time to tell everyone. The man's parents opened the door.
"Come in, everyone's out the back" said the man's mother. Outside the couple greeted relations.
"Hey man, how's married life suiting you" asked Kevin.
"Pretty well" replied the man. Danielle, Kevin's wife, came over to talk to the woman.
"Aww she's adorable, how old is little Courtney now?" asked the woman referring to the toddler who stood next to Danielle.
"I'm sure she can tell you herself" replied Danielle kneeling down to the toddler.
"Courtney how old are you?" asked Danielle brightly.
"Half Three" replied the little girl. Both women started laughing.
"That's right" said Danielle "Hey why don't you go find your cousin Hannah and go play with her". The toddler nodded and went to play.
"Obviously she means three and a half" said Danielle.
"Never have guessed!" replied the woman. Some time later the couple stood up just as everyone was about to finish their food.
"We have some news" said the man.
"I'm pregnant" said the woman.
"Oh that's wonderful Jamie!" said Miley as she rushed up to hug her son and his wife Michelle.
"First grandchild" said Nick as he hugged Michelle and then Jamie.
"Does that mean I'm gonna be an aunt?" asked Victoria. Victoria was Nick and Mileys second child, she was fourteen. Jamie was now twenty and his wife Michelle was also twenty.
"Welcome to the club JJ" said Joe as he bounced his daughter Lola on his knee. Lola was nine years old with the same jet black hair as Joe but with Bex's blue eyes. Bex and Joe also had a son called James who was seven. He had his mothers blonde hair and Joes cheeky grin.
"Yeah congrats Jamie" said Kevin. Kevin and Danielle had three children. Sixteen year old Taylor, eleven year old Max and three year old Courtney. At the end of the table sat Nicks mom Danielle and his dad Paul.
"First great grand child, we must be old!" exclaimed Paul. Michelle talked with Miley, Danielle and Bex about babies, while Jamie talked with his dad and uncles about football, somethings never change. Before everyone went home they all got together for a group picture, Miley set the timer and rushed back to her seat.
"Smile guys!" she said as she sat down. That evening Miley connected her camera to the computer and looked at the group picture. Nick walked up behind her.
"Why are you so happy?" he asked as he kissed her forehead.
"It's perfect" she replied "Our family, Our life... you".
"Nobody's perfect" said Nick.
"Then you come pretty close" she replied as she kissed him.
"Nobody's Perfect, I gotta work it, again and again, till I get it right" sang Miley gently.
"You got it right Miles" said Nick. He pulled her close and kissed her. Even after seventeen years of marriage they were still very much in love.
"I Love you Miles" said Nick.
"Love you too Nicky" she replied.
I think that's a nice way to leave it, a simple drama free family.
I'd love to hear you end comments, your overall review of this story.
I'll start a new story after my exams, I've got a good idea, partially based on a movie but with new twists, would you prefer it to be a Camp Rock fic or a Hannah Montana fic?
Thanks you so much for your review, I'm still amazed people want to read a little story I wrote.
