Chapter 21 : You Have My Blessing

CHADS POV

"Yes," she says smiling down at me. the guy who just proposed in his pajamas in his kitchen with no ring. and my heart starts to soar when i hear that one word. it feels like a million christmas moring all in one. all the happiness and surprise. and so i jump up and lay a fat one on Sonny. when i pull back i look into Sonny's eyes and see the happiness that i have. i hold her in my arms.

"Sonny i love you," i say.

"I love you too," she says.

"We need to inform our friends and family of the engagement," i say. a bit giddy that i get to call Sonny my fiancee.

"Ok i'll call my mom," Sonny says a bit shaky.

"Ok," i say .

SONNYS POV

OH CRAP!

i didn't really think of what my mom would say about me and chad getting married. Her and my dad got married young and it ended in a messy divorce. she has always been afriad that might happen to me.

so i pick up my phone and dial my moms number. i press send and put the phone to my ear. but i feel less confident by every ring.

"Hello," my moms calm voice says when she picks up the phone.

"Mom?" i say letting her know its me.

"Oh, hey Sonny how are you," she asks considering everything.

"I'm fine mom but i need to tell you something," i say trying to hold off the news as far as possible.

"Yes," she says.

"Chad and I are engaged to be married," i spit out hoping for the best expecting the worst.

"Huh," she says.

"Mom?" i ask scared of the response.

"Congradulations," she says. and im speechless. i thought i would get a lecture of her convincing me to call off the engagement.

"What?" i ask before i can stop it from coming out of my mouth.

"Congradulations," she says agian.

"But i thought.....becuase you and dad....and im young," i blurt out and i would be surprised if my mom got any of that. but of cousre because she is a mom she got the idea.

"Sonny that was me. i was so young and blind. but this is your life. i cant control when you get married. but answer one thing for me?" she says.

"Anything," i say still in shock.

"Do you love him?" she asks from the other side olf the phone line. and this question i can answer confidently. i love chad and i always will.

"Yes," i say.

"Then go and get Married , you have my blessing," she says.

"Thanks mom,"
