Its been a few weeks since Xander came and rescued me and we were living in a mansion in the Garden district and I was working for Tad with running the Dark Hunter site.
I was part time. Xander and I had the money that we didn't need for myself to be in a full time job. I stood in Xander's and my bedroom. I was in a spaghetti strapped sun dress and I was making sure it looked right. Xander was taking me out for a dinner at Sanctuary to say hi to all the bears. We haven't heard from Artemis about getting his soul back and we were getting worried.
"I hope Acheron or Nick will talk some sense into her." Xander had said. I pull my hair up and did a messy bun. I slipped into my black heals as I heard Xander yelling up the stairs to see if I was all ready to go.
"I'm coming." I call as I put some earing in my ears. I looked myself into the mirror and saw that everything looked good. I came down the stairs and came to a stop in the middle step.
"So how do I look?" I said, bending my knee as I hold the railing. I saw Xander's eyes light up at the sight of me. He wasn't dressed up but he didn't mind if I got a bit dolled up. It was rare to see me all dressed up like this.
"You look beautiful. Let's go." Xander said. We appeared on the third floor of Sanctuary and we came down the stiars to the bar. Aimee came over and hugged me.
"Welcome back. Glad you two are here to stay in NOLA." Aimee said.
"Thanks." Xander and I said. We head to the booth. A girl came over.
"Hi. I'm Elizabeth Savannah. can I take your order." Elizabeth said. (AN: She is my character. I got her story in the process. Its called Predator Moon. Check it out if you like this story.) We give her our orders and she takes the order to the counter. The Howlers start playing and people started heading out to the dance floor.
"Let's dance." Xander said, pulling me to my feet and leading me to the dance floor. We join other people and join in on the dancing. It has been awhile since I danced,
but I caught on and enjoyed the time we had with dancing. Xander pulls me to him as a slow dance comes on and we sway to the music.
"You having fun?" Xander asked as he looked into my eyes.
"I am, because I'm with you." I said. Xander smiled as he twirled me around and pulled me to him and dipped me. I let out a laugh. I saw Jessica and her boyfriend. She smiled. My family loved Xander and accepted him into the family.
"Our foods ready." Xander said, pulling me up and his eyes were behind me to where our booth was.
"Let's go eat then." I said. We head to the booth and sit down to enjoy our meal and drinks. We paid for our bill and head out after saying goodbye to Aimee and Fang.
"We got one place to stop before we head home." Xander said.
"Oh. Ok." I said. We headed to the park and I saw candlelight. I looked at Xander.
"I had your sisters help with this." Xander said. He led me to the middle of the circle. He stopped me and turned me to face him.
"Xander. What's going on?" I ask.
"Brynna. I have fallen in love with since we first met." Xander said.
"I loved you too." I said. He got down on one knee and I gasped as he pulled out a box and opened it. An engagement ring was sitting in it.
"Brynna Renee Addams. Will you marry me?" Xander said.
"Yes. Yes. I will marry you." I said. Xander slipped the ring on my finger and stood up. He pulled me against him and we were kissing. We disappeared and appeared in the living room of our house, still making out.
"Eww. I don't need to see that." A voice said. We broke apart and turn. Artemis was sitting all prim and proper in SXander's favorite chair. Nick was standing there.
"Nick." I said, running over. We haven't seen each other in years. We hugged.
"Congrats on the engagement. I hope I'm invited." Nick said.
"You are." I said.
"Good." Nick said.
"What are you doing here Artie?" Xander asked. She stood up and held out a wooden box and handed it to me. I took it and opened it. The jewel necklace that held Xan's soul was in there.
"Your brought it." I said.
"Of course. Nick convinced me to bring it." Artemis said. I set it on the table and ran to hug Artemis. I caught her by surprise but she hugged me back.
"Thank you." I said. I come up to Xander and saw him smiling.
"You are the exception with the rule. No one else will. I will tell the squires that. But I have one request." Artemis said.
"What would that be?" Xander asked as I rest a hand on his chest.
"I want to be invited to the wedding." Artemis said.
"I don't think..." Xander never got to finish what he was going to say, because I shut him up by kissing him. Artemis smiled knowing that she would be invited along with Nick. Artemis disappeared with Nick as Xander and I kissed, not noticing she was gone. She wasn't that cold hearted as I thought.
AN: There you go. One more chapter to go along with the extra chapter. Hope you liked it.
