Love Trap

Chapter 15

Celine POV

I don’t know what comes to Blake’s head to accuse and doubt me like that but then I realized that I am at fault at the same time. I should have inform him the minute I confirm about my pregnancy but I got scared too, that what if he didn’t want to have a child yet and we’re not even open with our family yet. This is giving me headache right now and fear. What if our parents disagree with our relationship? And the society, they see us as a siblings and now everyone will know about the relationship that we’re having because of my sudden pregnancy.

A tear escape my eyes as I look into the dark horizon. Standing alone at the veranda and feeling the coldness of the night. I can’t stay at the same room with Blake for now and I don’t know if I could look straight to him after I slapped his pretty face. I didn’t want to do that but I was hurt with his words towards me. It was him I’ve been dreaming to be a partner since childhood days, I didn’t expect us to be in this situation too but now that I have him for myself then I won’t let it slip on me. But what if he wouldn’t want me now?

Am I ready to face the new chapter of my life? Entering the phase of motherhood and not sure if taking this journey will be just for myself or if Blake will come along with me. I couldn’t help but release a deep sigh, I’m not being sure of whatever will comes next for me and to my unborn child. But all I hope is that I could give my child the best life that I always dream for myself to have.

“I’m sorry.” I hear Blake apologizing and hugging me from my back.

“I should have trust you too.” I said and my tears that I’m controlling earlier gets into their way to escape my eyes.

“I shouldn’t have doubted you in the first place, but I’m afraid love. That what if you realized that you want your ex-boyfriend back than to me. I couldn’t let you be with anyone else other than me.” He said while crying too.

I turn to face him and hug him back, I feel the warmth of his body that gives me calmness that instant. I felt him putting kisses on my forehead as he stroke my hair at the same time. It’s just a misunderstanding and along the way of our journey we will encounter lots of it so we better be open to one another to avoid this kind of argument again.

The next day, I woke up to the smell of newly cooked pancakes and bacon. I felt hungry that instant so I hurriedly went to washroom to do my morning routine. I was about to go at the dining room when I saw Blake holding a tray with food inside our room. He flashed his signature smile that makes me hypnotize and smile back at him. I instantly crave when I saw how expertly he cooked the pancakes, the soft bacon that I enjoy eating it not crispy and the sunny side up eggs.

“Breakfast in bed for my lady and my baby.” He said while he place the tray on top of the side bed table.

“I didn’t know that you can cook muffin.” I said unbelievably.

“I do know this easy cook foods, but if I need to cook other dishes then good luck to me.” He said and laugh.

He then serve me my food in bed and I finish it all in less than minutes I guess. I just feel so starve suddenly, maybe due to my pregnancy. After having our breakfast, Blake asked me to get ready and that he wants us to meet and ob-gyne that can check me and our baby. I suggest him that we can just go visit my doctor friend and consult with her since she’s an ob-gyne too. He agrees and now we both phoned in absent in our office and clinic to get into check-up.

“Congratulations! You’ve got a healthy pregnancy as I can see. Just make sure that you will avoid stress and too much workloads because it won’t be okay for the baby.” My doctor friend advised me and I agree.

After consulting with the doctor, Blake told me that we need to go somewhere very important. I got confused but then just let him drive us to where he’s telling me. Almost two hours later, we reached a place where it looks like a greenery and it has a very nice view. He assist me while going out of the car and then usher me while we walk. We stopped in a light house like structure facing a hanging bridge hanged into a lake.

The wind blows my hair and makes me chill a little because of its cold breeze. I enjoy the view and it’s so relaxing for me to see this kind of scenery. It’s not every day that I get a chance to see a view like this so I made my eyes feast on the beauty that I’m witnessing right now. I felt Blake hugged me from behind and I could feel him inhaling my scent. After a while I feel something cold in my finger and when I lift my hand, it’s an engagement ring that I see I am wearing.

“What is it?” I asked confused.

“It’s an engagement ring baby, can’t you see?” He replied and laugh.

“I know but why giving me this?” I said once more.

“Because the moment that we enter this whirlwind relationship of us, I’m always thinking of a way how and when to propose to you. But I guess I’m getting coward to ask you to marry me so I always postpone it.” He explains, but still I’m confused why all of a sudden giving me a ring.

“I mean, shouldn’t you need to ask me first if I want to marry you? Because that’s how proposal go through.” I said clearing to him my confusion.

“Baby, don’t tell me after knocking you out I still need to ask you that. Of course you’ll be instantly engaged with me because first I want to marry you and second is that you’re carrying our precious child now.” He said while laughing at the same time.

“At least you should have make it romantic for the two of us than just put a ring on my finger.” I said with a hint of sadness.

“Baby, I really didn’t plan to ask you because I’m afraid to get rejected by you.” He said that makes us both laugh hard.

Rest of the day we spend on that place and looking at the views that makes me really enjoy. We stopped walking and then I saw a chapel nearby. Blake asked me to enter the chapel and so I did. And there I saw the chapel simply decorated with dandelions and a Priest waiting in the middle of the altar. Blake walks me in and then we stopped in front of the Priest and then in an instant he begins to bless us and wed us without even telling me.

After about an hour we’re being announced husband and wife and the Priest congratulate us. It didn’t sink in my mind yet that I’m already married but what I know is I feel so happy that I came to give and exchange my vows with the guy that I used to dream before.
