This is for Lizzel, my wondderful sister! The one that never hits me.... The song is by 98 degrees. I found that one by digging through my lil' cousin's stuff.

"I love you," Michael had whispered in Vanessa's ear. It was her eighteenth birthday, and he had something special planned. He'd never meant when he said it to his parent's, didn't like his family much. He smiled and winked at her from the stage. She blushed as Serena nudged her, laughing lightly. He stepped up to the mike, his voice echoing softly,



"You've heard this a thousand times before

I'm in love with you

You'll hear it at least a million more

Baby, that's the truth

It's the small things that endear me

Every time that you are near me



The way you laugh at what I say

The way you look at each new day

The way your tears fall right on cue

That's what I love about you

Nobody else knows me by heart

Takes me where I can reach the stars

Makes me believe in love

The way you do

You see in me the man that I can be

And I'm thanking you

You've given me all I ever need

All I wanted, too

I know how blessed I am

Girl, you are my best friend



The way you laugh at what I say

The way you look at each new day

The way your tears fall right on cue

That's what I love about you

Nobody else knows me by heart

Takes me where I can reach the stars

Makes me believe in love

The way you do...."

The crowed cheered, yelling and screaming, but Michael didn't care. Vanessa was still sanding with Serena, the light pink gracing her cheeks making her look like a goddess in Michael's opinion.

"I don't know how many of you know what today is, but it's very special to me." Michael spoke into the mike. He grinned down at his girlfriend of three years, but she only glanced back up, thoroughly confused. His grin widened. "I fact, I'd like to ask someone very special to come up here. Vanessa, would you mind?"

"What are you doing?" She whispered as he bent down to pull her up. She stood, he however, remained on his knee.

"Vanessa I love you." Michael said again. He could see a light of recognition light up in her blue eyes as her blush deepened. "I love you more then anything. You're my world, and I don't know what I'd ever do without you. Vanessa, will you marry me?"

"Yes!" She squealed as he slipped the ring on her finger. She laughed as he lifted her, twirling her around. He set her down, kissing her deeply.

"I love you." He said, still holding her close.

"You all ready said that." Vanessa giggled.

"And I'm going to tell you every day for the rest of your life."

Ok, short and pretty pointless. Just tell me what you think!
