here's the next chapy
Chapter Twelve
I finally gained back my grandparent's trust by late November and my Grandparents were planning on going to France for a week or two and they said that I could stay here while they were gone, I think they secretly thought that I would fall in love with Simon during the week and that they would come home and find out about an engagement, which gave me the perfect opportunity to get away. I had it all planned out… Step one: act happy until Grandparents leave.
Step two: stay for a day or two
Step three: Leave on a boat for America
Step four: Live happily ever after
It was the perfect plan everyone was happy…well Will, Matt, Angel, Kat and I are any way. I'd miss Gemma, Ann, and Fee but hey there's no reason they couldn't visit. Of course my plan didn't anticipate what happened next:
It was the day before my Grandparents left and Simon and his family were visiting after dinner while my Grandparents and his parents were talking Simon got up, walked over to me and got down on one knee (a/s.b. we interrupt the regularly scheduled story to bring you this from our author now I don't think you need to be a rocket scientist to figure this out but incase I'm wrong I'll explain what happens in a second and now on to the story
I gasped and the adults watched us.
"Susan," Simon asked, "will you marry me?"
"I…I, I," I stuttered not knowing what to say you know that guy who said anything that can go wrong will obviously knows me well. I just sat there trying to think of what to say and smiling so hard my cheeks hurt!
"Simon I think she's so happy you've left her speechless!" his mother said.
"Susan?" Simon said.
"Yes Simon."
"Do you have an answer?"
"I… uh yes… yes I will marry you." I said even though my head was calling me stupid and making comments about me that hurt my feelings. Ok so one minor set back so my plans change to:
Step one: act happy until Grandparents leave.
Step two: stay for a day or two
Step three: Leave on a boat for America
Step four: Send Simon a message calling off the engagement
Step five: Live happily ever after
Still ends with me being happy.
