"I said marry me." I repeated.
"Um….. Um…." I don't think I'm going to like this answer. After a few more ums, Heather was ready to answer. "Can you give me time to think about it?"
"What is there to think about?"
"Alejandro, we broke up and just got back together. As much as I love you, give me time to think about it."
"Fine."
"Okay, so new subject. Where are you staying?"
"I was gonna go to a hotel after I came here."
"You can stay here." She offered.
"Thanks. Where can I put my bag?"
"Anywhere's fine. So, what do you want to do?" she asked.
"I don't know."
"Do you want to hang out here?"
"Sure."
We can watch a movie. Maybe Pretty In Pink?" She joked. I laughed with her. We decided on She's The Man.
The movie was over and it was 9 o'clock. Heather was asleep in my arms and I carried her to her room. I lied her down on her bed and tucked her in. I went to the bathroom and changed into my pajamas and went to lay down with Heather. After I laid down, Heather woke up.
"Yes." Heather said.
"Yes?"
"I'll marry you." She turned over and went back to sleep. Then I fell asleep and I realized; I'm engaged.
I woke up, Heather was still sleeping and had her arms around my waist. I slipped out of her arms and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. When breakfast was done, Heather came out of her room rubbing her eyes.
"Good morning future Mrs. Burromuerto." I said happily.
"Good morning hubby." Heather mumbled. Hubby… I could get used to that. Heather sat down at the table, I placed a plate of pancakes in front of her and she began to eat.
"Um, Alejandro."
"Yeah?"
"How am I going to tell my parents?"
"What do you mean?"
"After we broke up, I called my mom and told her what happened. I don't think they're going to be too happy about this."
