Carter's POV

After the new year passed, me and Michael decided to do a joint interview together to announce our engagement. There had already been a few reports of us possibly being engaged but we just wanted to confirm it ourselves.

We also decided that we wanted Diane Sawyer to do the interview, mostly because she's a very respectful and nice person.

Karen Faye was doing my makeup inside of Michael's bedroom and I think Michael was still somewhere getting dressed.

"Are you nervous sweetheart?" Karen asked, as she applied some eyeshadow to my eyes.

"A little. I've always been the one giving the interview, not the one being interviewed."

She smiled lightly. "Well, you'll be fine. Michael will be right there with you."

I just flashed her a quick smile and went back to watching the tv in front of me.

Once she got down to applying my blush, Michael came into the room.

"How do I look baby?" He wondered. I looked over at him and smiled.

He had on a black button up shirt with a red band on one sleeve, black dress pants and his loafers. His hair was straightened and hanging down around his face.

"Hubba hubba! You look hot as hell, future baby daddy," I said, purposely trying to make him blush.

It worked because you could see the red tinging his cheeks. "Shut up. Why aren't you dressed yet? We have to be on set in," he looked down at his watch. "20 minutes."

"I didn't wanna get makeup on my outfit Applehead," I explained.

He nodded and sat down on the bed, grabbing the remote and turning the channel.

"Hey, I was watching that!" I yelled.

"Well, you're not now," he smirked, still looking at the tv.

I sat back in the chair and crossed my arms across my chest. "Asshole," I muttered.

"What was that?" He looked over at me.

"Ass.....hole," I enunciated.

"Hmm," he stood up and Karen walked away from us to get some more makeup. He bent down so that his mouth was level with my ear.

"Do you want to be punished for that? Hmm?"

My breathing became irregular and I squeezed my legs together. I couldn't let him know that he was affecting me, though.

"You won't do shit," I turned so that he could see me smile.

He chuckled lowly and whispered to me again "We'll see if that's the case later on tonight."

He stood up and winked at me before sitting back down on the bed. Karen came back over and finished my makeup. I got up and grabbed the garment bag that held my outfit and opened it up.

My outfit consisted of a black blouse, creme colored dress pants and black and creme heels. I had a lot of creme colored jewelry, plus my engagement ring.

After I got dressed, I put my curly hair into a neat ponytail and I was ready to go.

"How do I look Applehead?" I stood in front of him and twirled around in a circle.

"You look absolutely beautiful baby girl," he smiled as he stood up. He put his hands on my hips and kissed me softly but firmly.

I pulled away and wiped my lip gloss off his lips. "Ready?"

"Yep," he reached down and intertwined our hands before we walked out of our bedroom together. We walked downstairs to the living room, where the television crew was setting up for the interview. 

"Michael!" A blonde woman walked up to us and I realized that it was Diane Sawyer. "So nice to see you again," she smiled genuinely.

"Hello Diane, its nice to see again as well," Michael smiled his dazzling smile. He looked down at me. "Diane, this is my fiancee Carter Green. Carter, this is Diane Sawyer."

She extended her hand out to me and I shook it. "Nice to meet you Carter."

"Nice to meet you as well. I love the work that you do."

"Thank you," she smiled. "I just wanted to touch bases with you two personally so that I could know if there's anything that I shouldn't ask you about. You know, things that may make you uncomfortable or that sort of thing."

"Actually, I'd prefer it if you didn't mention her previous pregnancy," Michael spoke up.

I whipped my head around and looked up at him. "What? Why?"

"Baby, that's way too personal."

"Isn't that the whole point of this interview? To get up close and personal?" I shot back.

"No, the point of this interview is to confirm our engagement and to let the fans know how we're doing. That's it." 

I looked over at Diane. "Can we have a minute please?"

"Sure, no problem," she smiled and walked away. God, that woman smiles a lot.

I turned back to face Michael. "I know you're worried about it reopening old wounds but it doesn't bother me that much anymore. It actually feels good to talk about it now. Besides, I know that people wonder what happened to my baby bump."

"I know baby, but that's just exposing ourselves too much. And who cares if they're wondering? Let them."

"But Michael-"

"Please just trust me on this," he cut me off. "Please?"

I was gonna be my typical self and argue with him but I could tell that he was very serious about this. "Ugh, fine. We won't discuss that."

"Thank you baby girl," he leaned down and kissed me passionately. 

"2 minutes until we go live! 2 minutes people!" One of the crew members shouted. 

"Let's do this Jackson," he winked at me and held out his hand. I kissed his cheek before taking his hand and walking over to Diane with him.
