A/N I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU LISTEN TO KISS ME SLOWLY BY: PARACHUTE WHILE READING THIS CHAPTER. and read it a little slow to sync with the music (read after the intro) ;) ~S
Well dinner wasn't half bad. It was only a little uncomfortable because Adrian kept giving me a sexy stare with his parents sitting right there. I tried to eat attractivly, but the lava-hot soup wasn't very easy to work with. Nathan just stared at me with a hatred glare the whole time, and his mother returned that glare to him. It was a really good dinner, multiple coarses leaving me stuffed. After dinner me and Adrian went for a walk. We walked for a little while, until we stopped at a gazebo. I smiled.
"What are we doing here?", I asked quietly. He kissed me.
"Thought you might want to dance..", He said and turned on the radio set up behind us. I smiled and moved closer to him. He put his arms around me, and we slow danced for a while. Finally he kissed me. When he broke apart I just about had a heart attack. Why? Because he was on one knee in front of me with a BIG diamond ring. I closed my eyes.
"Will you please marry me.", He whispered. We'd only been going out for 6 months. I was not ready.
"Can I take a little walk?", I whispered back. He nodded.
"I'll be waiting.", He said and lovingly touched my cheek. I gave him a small smile, then bolted for the street.
I stopped after 5 minutes. I had no idea where I was, and I was panting from running. I sat down on the edge of the road, and it had just started raining. I ran over to a tree for a little shelter, and sat against the trunk. I put my head in between my knees to try and calm down. I love him, I dont want to hurt him... I have to say yes. But I dont want to get married yet... DAMNIT ADRIAN! Why did he propose? The confused rant went along for another 5 minutes in my head. He's going to be looking for me... I forced myself to get up. I had enough money for a plane ticket... I hoped... but I had NO IDEA where the school was. Maybe thats why he blindfolded me... It was getting colder every second I stood there. I guess i'd better go back. Now what street was I on? I attempted to figure out where I had just walked from, but in the end i'd gotten more lost. That's when I lost it. I sat against a tree and cried myself to sleep, only to find Adrian waiting for me in a dream.
"Alyssa! Where are you! Are you okay?",He said.
"I'm fine, I got really lost and I have no idea where I am.", I said and ran to him, hugging him. He caressed my hair.
"I'm coming to find you right now."
"Okay.", I whispered. I was left back to my own dreams. A couple minutes later, he popped into my dream again.
"Alyssa, it's been hours. We still haven't found you."
"I'm in some weird field-farm looking place." He put his head in his hands.
"There's alot of those around here."
"I'm scared."
"So was I, when you didn't come back last night."
"Not about that. I dont think im ready to get married." He came and sat beside me.
"We dont have to get married, for you to be mine and promise to be with me and only me."
"What you think im going to go around kissing other men?"
"I didn't mean it like that.."
"I know." He pulled out the ring box.
"We'll just stay engaged until we're ready.", He said and kissed me. I slipped the ring on my finger.
"I love you."
"I love you too.", he replied.
"Oh and I slipped the ring in your pocket, so when you wake up you can put it on.", He said and winked, then left my dream once again.
