A/N
YASSSS! Exams are over! I have about a week and a half of freedom before summer courses starts! So I'll try to update as much as possible!!
"Nate this is not a good idea. Let's just leave now!" Lillie pulls at his arm but he was already storming through the front doors of the Chambers' mansion.
"No Lillie! You don't get to tell me what to do anymore! I'm through with you and your family lies!" he pulls her close speaking directly in her face so she knew he was serious.
Her breath caught in her throat and she couldn't find her voice that moment to stop him. He lets go of her shoving her aside.
"JONAHHHH! Get your ass out here this instant!"
*****
Mindy drops her bag on the floor catching the attention of all three people in the middle of the room. All their head turns to face her as she stands there idly not knowing what to do.
"What's going on here?" she cautiously asks.
Nate's steps were quick reaching her and encircling her in his embrace. "Oh thank god you are okay."
She was shocked by the sudden hug given by Nate especially with Jonah not too far away.
"What's wrong Na.. – "
"Get the fuck off my wife!" Jonah shouts. He swiftly pulls Nate away from her body before swinging and landing a punch on his face.
"Shut up she's not your wife!" Nate returns a punch.
Both men were at the end of their sting and an all-out punching war starts between the two.
It took a stunned Mindy a minute to realize what was going on. Finally, she runs toward the two grabbing Jonah off of Nate while Lillie holds Nate back.
"Let go of me! I'm going to kill that son of a bitch!" Jonah roared.
"Stop it now!" Mindy shouted loud and clear but neither man seem not to care.
"Nate calm down!" Lillie tried at stopping him.
"Shut up! I'm taking Mindy back with me today after I murder this fucker!" Nate shoves Lillie causing her to tumble to the ground.
"Nate back away!" Mindy attempts again at stopping them. She was now in between the two men holding Jonah back with Nate only a few steps behind.
"Out of my way Mindy!" Jonah growled but she showed no resistant in backing down. The anger in him was burning up. She did the first thing that came to her mind to calm him down.
Wrapping one arm around his neck and the other around his head she pulls his head to her and kisses him. Jonah was shocked for a second but his anger quickly dissipates and he deepens the kiss wrapping his arms around her tiny waist.
Nate stood there, paralyzed and astounded by the scene before him. His mind was racing confuse at Mindy's action. His jaw tense and his fist tightens but Lillie grabs him before he can stop the couple before him.

Mindy finally broke off the kiss and stare daze into her husband's eyes before releasing her arms from him. "What's going on here?" she said breathlessly. She locks her right fingers with Jonah's left hand to keep him in place. Then she turns to look at Nate who was still standing there his eyes burning right through her. "Nate what are you doing here?"
"I came to take you back. I know everything now Mindy. I know what that asshole did to you. When we met last time you didn't tell me that he kidnapped you. Why? I could have taken you away right then and there." He takes a step forward but she stops him with her voice.
"He didn't kidnap me. I agree to go with him." She lied. But really now, to her, whether it was kidnap or not, she know she owes this family everything she has.
"Liar! Why are you covering up for that bastard! Lillie told me everything already!" he shouts.
Jonah eyes his sister throwing daggers right at her. He confided in his sister not too long ago and the girl already opened her mouth. Lillie gave an apologetic look but right now he can careless, he'll deal with her later.
"It doesn't matter what happened in the past. All that matter now is that I'm married to Jonah."
"He tricked you into marrying him! Have you gone mad!?" He shouts at her.
"Yeah maybe I have gone mad! But all that doesn't matter anymore because I love him!" she quickly inhales a breath and her heart begins to race. She just confessed out loud to Jonah, his sister and Nate that she loved him. But as quick as she said it, she regretted it. The pained look on her best friend's face tore at her heart.
Jonah himself was taken back before a smile broke on his face. He takes Mindy's hand and brings it to his lips. "There you have your answers now get out of my house." He said removing his lips from the back of her palm.
Nate bit at him trembling lips. A teardrop escapes his eye as he looks away. He chuckles to himself quietly. "A man kidnapped you, forced you to marry him and you end up falling in love with him." He still wasn't looking at her but shifts his head to look at the empty wall. "I befriended you, been nothing but nice, care for you and your family, chase after you for years, pour my heart and soul out to you, love you and at the end I still lose."
"Nate please, it's not like that." Mindy tried speaking to him.
"Then what is it!? You've never even tried or gave me a chance." He cuts her off. "I'm done here."
He turns to leave but stops himself. "Just so you know, your parents will be hearing about this."

"NO! Nate you can't!" she lets go of Jonah and run to him. For the first time that night, Jonah felt fear. He made no effort into stopping her.
"Please Nate you can't tell my parent." She grabs hold of his arm shaking it a little.
"And why not? I'm sorry but I like your parents every much and I don't want to keep such big secrets away from them especially when it's concerning their daughter." He pulls his arms out of her grasp and started walking away towards the door.
"Nate. I swear if you tell them, this is the end of our friendship and I will hate you for life."
He stops in his track and chuckles a little not looking back. "Friend." He whispered before striding out the door. Lillie stares at both her brother and Mindy before chasing Nate out the door.

The next morning Mindy lays on her bed concern running through her mind. She was worry that any minute now, her mother will call her phone and demand answers like always.
Jonah walks out of the bathroom door nice and wet with only a towel wrapped around his hip bringing her right back to reality. She still couldn't get use the his every perfection she thought licking at her lips.
He smiles at his wife gazing at him like she was ready to devour him. He stalks towards her and Mindy finally snaps out of it and shifts herself away from him.
"Baby are you still mad at me?" he said getting on the bed not caring if he was wetting the sheets. He pulls her body against his hard wet chest.
"Jonah! You're all wet let go of me." She struggles in his arm.
"No. Not until you say you forgive me for yesterday. Look I'm hurt and you didn't even bother to tend to my wounds but just went straight to bed." He whines like a child.
"Good you deserved it. Because of you my parents are probably going to call me any minute now."
"He won't tell them." Jonah's demeanor suddenly changes to serious. "He won't risk you hating him forever."
Mindy sighs. "I didn't mean those words to him. I can never hate him."
"So then did you mean those words to me then."
"What words?" she knew exactly what he was talking about but she was too embarrass to bring herself to say it.
"You love me?" he turns her back down against the bed so he can look at her properly.
"I..." she turns her head not daring to look at him but Jonah already knew the answer and he couldn't be happier as he stares lovingly at his wife.
*****
"Hi mom." Mindy called her mom two days later.
"Hey Hun. How are you doing?" Grace replied.
"Peachy." She sighs. "Hey mom. Have you been in contact with Nate?"
"No I haven't. Why?"
"Oh nothing. I just haven't been able to reach him." She lied but felt relief that he didn't tell her parents.
"Maybe he's busy. I mean, the man is running a business you know." Grace suggested.
"Yeah maybe..."
"So when do I get to come by?" Grace asked.
"Uhhh. I have to go now mom. Jonah's asking for me." With that she hangs up the phone not wanting to talk about her parents meeting her mother-in-law.
She sighs looking at the end screen on her phone. She doesn't want to continue lying to her parents but she couldn't risk her mother-in-law having an attack. She has grown to really love the woman and vice versa. All the stress was taking a toll on her as she run to the bathroom to throw up only to remind her that she has yet to tell Jonah that she was pregnant.
*****
A week later Mindy was in the hospital getting her first checkup with Jordan.
"Thanks for doing this Jordan." She graciously said.
"No problem. Anything for my buddy." He said. "There on the screen."
Mindy's eyes swell up as she sees her and Jonah's baby for the first time. "Our precious angel." She sniffed wiping at her eyes.
Jordan smiles deeply although he wishes his best friend can be there to witness the baby too.
-
Jonah was in his office with a bad migraine. He leans back in his chair behind his huge desk rubbing at his temple. "Yeah I need to come clean before she finds out on her own. Gosh why did my dumbass even start this anyways." He whispered to himself.
He picks up his phone and call Dexter. "Dexter make an appointment with Mindy's parents for the weekend. At their home. Mindy's coming with me. Thanks."
-
The sun was settling and a sheet of colors cover the sky when Mindy got out of the taxi.
"Come darling to the family room!" Agatha was there to greet her. Mindy thought she sounded too excited especially calling her darling.
She smiles and follows Agatha's steps. "What's this about Agatha?" she said as they arrive at the entry way of the family room.
Her smile quickly fades when she saw the group of people sitting across from each other.
"Mom. Dad. What are you guys doing here?" Fear erupted through her as she looks back and forth from her parents to Nina.
"Hey babe what are you doing here?" Jonah comes in and hugs Mindy from the back.
When he realizes who was in front of them, his eyes bulge and he slowly and quietly lets her go.
