Scarlett
It hadn't been easy walking into the house and seen Jase's dad but Jase convinced me to hear him out.I stand beside the window looking at the kids playing with the sand. Jase had stayed, I am glad because being alone in a room with a man who hates me isn't a good idea.
"I know I have messed up Scarlett. I let the love I had for your mom and how she betrayed me judge you. I don't deserve to be forgiven for all the horrible things I said to you. I will never forgive myself for taking Jase's choice away to be with your kids. Just know all the things I said aren't true. Your more then good for my son, you have always been," I look at Vi and Kyle smiling as they play with the sea shells. Jase had explained to me about how my mom and his dad had had something. I had never known.
I look back at the man who told me I wasn't good enough for Jase. The man who offered me money and expected me to walk away. The one who left my kids without a father for 2 years. What if Jase and I had never found out the truth?
"Scarlett," Jase whispers my name and touches my shoulder. He looks so much like his father but is nothing like him. I am not sure I can forgive someone who could have taken my kids father away from them.
"I don't want you near my kids," I say and walk away.
I know this will affect me and Jase but I can't forgive what he had done. He might have loved my mother and she betrayed him but I am not her. He has no reason to think that of me. I am like my mother in ways but I would never betray Jase.
"Scarlett wait," Jase calls for me. I stop at the porch and look towards the beach.
"He hurt me too much Jase, I can't," I feel his arms wrap around me.
"It's ok baby, you don't want him near our kids then I won't allow it. As long as I have you and the twins my world is perfect," I turn and kiss the man who has stolen my heart.
Jase
After a day at the beach I leave Scarlett with the twins. I had asked them to distract their mom because I have a surprise for her.I put the last rose petals on the floor and hold the box with the ring in my hand. I am ready to do this.
"Daddy she's coming," Kyle says making his way beside me, Vi comes right behind him.
"Got the camera Vi?" I ask wanting her to capture every second of what is about to happen.
"Yes daddy," she holds the camera up and presses the record button.
"What's g-..." Scarlett trails off as she looks at the rose petals on the floor. She walks to us in a beautiful long black sundress.
"Jase what's all of this?" she asks looking around.
"Scarlett you mean the world to me. You have giving me two amazing kids. I couldn't ask for more. Everything I need is right here. You're the woman who I want to spend the rest of my life with. You're who I want to wake up to every morning and tell you how beautiful you look with messy hair," she smiles and I get on one knee, opening the box I continue, "Scarlett Johnson will you marry me?"
She covers her mouth in surprise and nods yes through her tears. I know they are the good kind of tears. I place the ring on her finger and get up to kiss her. The kids laugh in the back as I pick her up and place a big kiss on her lips.
"I love you Jase, you're my forever," she says through our kiss.
Everything we have went through is worth it. I will never change Scarlett for anyone. If someone would have told me love felt this good a few years ago I would have laughed but when you fall in love you'll know what it actually means. The kids join us and we all hug.
I have everything I could have ever wanted. Scarlett is my bestfriend and now she will be my wife. I am a lucky bastard.
"I'll be loving you hard, always baby."
