My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 39 - Moment of silence!

So, I'll try not to make this long! BUT I was supposed to upload yesterday, and I didn't. I'm really sorry about that! Like omg. I have a perfectly understanding reason though! I cut my finger open and it hurt wicked bad, so I couldn't type! Every time I did, it would start bleeding again. -__- Thankfully I didn't need stitches, right?! So now it's still sore but I had to give you guys something for now. I know it's not long, but at least it's something! And the next one will be much longer. I promise. :) 

There's really nothing exciting in this chapter though... Maybe in the next one!

     I stare down at the beautiful and sparkly promise ring, with beautiful mesmerizing diamonds graved into the band, and I'm completely shocked and stunned. I've never seen something so perfect in my entire life. I stare into his eyes in pure amazement, unable to find the words to express the emotions I'm feeling right now. I've never been this speechless before... My sight suddenly even becomes blurry, from the unexpected tears filling up my eyes, as I drop my gaze down to his hand once again to stare silently at the ring.

     "I might have not showed you a lot of attention before you moved out of the country, but I've always been like a brother to Jeremy and I guess I just couln't find it in me to talk to you because of that. I didn't want to think of you as a sister, so I kept my distance and stayed away. I always had my eyes on you, I'm not going to lie," he cautiously lets out, as I anxiously hold my breath. "But when you got back from England, Bella. . . I saw you and I swear I've never felt anything like the feeling you gave me, in my life. It's like I physically got shocked. You just matured and you looked so beautiful, and different... I knew I had feelings for you but I never would have thought I would fall this hard for a girl who never showed any interest in me. You were the only girl to not give me attention. And that drove me crazy."

      "It's because you were the player," I softly state, him softly chucklingin return, and so do I.

      "That night when I made a move on you, I can be a man right now and honestly tell you that being with you like that was the best time in my life. All you had to do was kiss me and it made me go crazy. I was crazy about how you looked, about your amazing body, and in the moment I was just a normal guy. But then I found out you were pregnant and everything changed."

       "The day you found out," I slowly begin to say, hesitating as I drop my gaze down to his coffee cup. "You just drove away from me... It hurt me so much. Where did you go? I want to know where you ended up going to. I won't be mad if it was to another girl's house or something."

      "Never. I'm not that low," he mumbles, his voice deep and huskey as I practically melt. "I went to the park. That's where I usually cleared my head, so I went there and I stayed for a while. And I thought about how much I cared about you, and I came back that night. I realized leaving you like that was a mistake. I realized that night that I couldn't walk away from you."

   "We've been through so much," I quietly whisper, as he gently takes my hand, staring passionately into my eyes almost as if he's connecting with my soul. "What does this mean? You didn't have to get me this. I know you love me Caleb."

     "You're my world, Bella. I want you to know how serious I am about this. About us. You and Nevaeh are all that matters to me," he emotionally tells me, his voice slighly cracking as he looks down at my hand, slowly sliding the ring onto my finger. "I promise to stay by you forever. I'll never leave you, not unless you order me away. Maybe not even then. But most of all... I can promise you this." He immediately goes silent as he lifts his head, and his eyes lock with mine. "I'm going to marry you someday, Isabella. And I hope when that day comes... you'll say yes."
