Chapter 18: Another proposal?
Hello my Twistinians, welcome back to Sold to him. I hope you all will like the EriAnnalicious chapter, because I love the EriAnna lovers as much as I love the FourTris lovers, so without further ado here's chapter 18...
-Adrianna's pov-
I'm so happy for my baby sister, because she has found the man, she always was meant to be with. He has proven many times, that he only loves and wants to be with him. I wish Eric would propose to me, but I guess, he won't. Why would he? I'm already married to him, so why bother to propose to someone he doesn't want to be. I know, that he doesn't love, it's just attraction from his side, when I'm truly in love with that man and always will be.
"Adrianna," Eric begins to say, while he squeezes my hand and continues, not knowing that I have started to tear up, "I need to show you something," I nod, while I avoid looking at him. "Look at me baby," I refuse to look at him and he moves around me until we are face to face. "Why are you crying?"
"These are tears of happiness Eric. Tris and Tobias are finally getting married for real. I'm so happy for them.
"What about us?!" He asks. "Oh, there's still time for us to get divorced Eric." I reply back bitterly. "So you don't love me?" He asks me as bitterly as I answered back. "It's bot about me, but about you Eric. I know you never loved me, so it's better, if we separate after FourTris' wedding."
"Are you insane or what?!" He questions angrily, "because I was putting so much effort in asking you to marry me," he takes a small break before continuing, "but I was afraid to ask you," he wanted to propose to me and I ruined it all for him, "because I want you to be happy, that is, what I want the most. Your happiness is more worth than anything to me Adrianna! I cannot imagine a life without you." Now I was actually crying, because I hurt him. I was about to drop onto my knees and he knelt down beside me.
A moment later I say, "I'm so sorry Eric" I sniffed making him smile softly at me, "I thought you didn't love me, so I was going to leave you." He takes me into his arms and says, "I would never stop loving you Adrianna, even if you had moved on from me!?" I wrap my arms around him and join our foreheads together. "Eric, I'm saying yes," he then suddenly asks, "for what?!"
"For having a wedding with you!?" For a minute he was to stunned to react to my words and he asks, "what did you say before?"
"I said yes to the "will you marry me" question." I reply back with a smile and he looks at me like "Shit, I should have asked you differently." I laugh at his expression and say, "you already said, that you wanted to propose to me, so I made it easier for you darling."
"Oh, you shouldn't have babe. I was going to make it more special by taking you away from here!" He states and I stare at him, while he winks at Tobias, who shouts, "omg, my bro is going to ask his girl to marry him." He sounds like a schoolgirl, while Tris smiles brightly at me. "And what was your special way to propose?!"
"I won't tell you anything or else it wouldn't be a surprise."
"Uh oh! Because I won't say yes a second time," He smirks and says, "oh really? Because I didn't want you to say yes anyways." If he wants to play a game, I'm so ready to play it. "Then I will marry someone, who knows, how to love a woman like me." I wink at him and his face slackens. That's right, he should burn for a while.
"You'd do that to me?!" He asks a while later and he is tearing up, it hurts me seeing him like that, so I say, "I'd never do that to you Eric. I love you too much to hurt you like that." He smiles playfully at me and says triumphantly, "gotcha. I knew that you wouldn't do that to me, so I just needed to pinch myself, so that tears started flowing." I grab his shirt, pull him down towards me and kiss him and during the kiss, I say, "never do this to me," he doesn't reply back, so I bite his lower lip and he stutters out a yes. I give him a quick kiss, before letting him go. He moans out in displeasure and I smirk at him. He gives me a puppy look, because he wants another kiss and I shake my head in no. He pouts and I whisper to him, "later!?" This time he smiles at me and kisses my cheek, before whispering into my ear, "tonight I will cherish you in a way, you will never forget." He winks at me before leaving me here stunned.
"Oh my sis is totally getting it tonight." Tris whispers in my ear as she was standing next to me, where Eric was standing a minute ago. "Uh, what?!"
"He said, that he is going to make love to." She replies back, while Four winks at me and says, "please don't have to much fun with my bro! Because I want and need you guys on our wedding." What was he implying to? Oh, he thinks that Eric is gonna get me pregnant, shit. "And you two shouldn't be celebrating your engagement too much or else you won't be there for your own marriage." I bite back at them, then I leave them there, where they were and this time, they are the confused ones.
As I was walking someone pulled me towards them, when I turned around, I saw my husband and now fiancé looking down at me. "Eric, what are you doing?" He smirks. "Taking my wife with me, so I can spent some time with her alone."
"Oh and where are we going?!" I ask him. "It's a surprise babe." He then blindfolded me and guided me to an unknown place. I'm really excited to find out about his surprise. He always does that with me and I just don't know why? Does he love me so much, that he tries to express his feelings towards me, every chance he gets? I'll never know the answers to my questions, because he'll just shrug it off.
An hour later we were still on our way to Eric's surprise destination. "Are we there yet," he answers back, "not yet. Why?"
"I need to go to the loo." He laughs at me. "You're worse than my twin brother." I glare at him and hear someone saying, "hey, that's not fair, you shouldn't insult your brother or even your wife!"
"I wasn't insulting you both, I was just comparing you guyses cuteness and so far she's winning!" He answers back to his brother. "That's so rude," I'm sure that his brother is pouting at the phone. "Shut up Alex," my dear cousin Lynn says to her husband. After she had started mocking him, he ended the call and Eric chuckled as he heard a few bits and pieces.
"You three seem to be pretty close." I say and he answers back, "yes we are and they are even closer to Tobias, because he used hang out a bit more with them," he rolls his eyes as he mentions Evelyn, "while I had to listen to Evelyn's all of the sudden outbursts." Finally the car stops and he says, "we have reached our destination!?"
"Finally," I say happily. He laughs, before taking the blindfold away from my eyes. When I look around, I see a tall building infront of us. "Where are we Eric?"
"This restaurant belongs to Zeke and Uriah. I had reserved a table for tonight," he is so sweet, "so that we can spend some time together."
"Thank you so much. It's so sweet of you and you know, that you don't have to spend so much money on me. I'm happy with small and simple things!"
"I know you are Adrianna, but I wanted to surprise you, so I decided to do it like this." I was speechless, no one has ever done something like that for me. As soon as we got out of the car, I leaped towards, hugged him before giving a kiss and said, "thank you so much Eric. I love you! No one has ever done that for me and you," he smiles like an idiot, "you're my Prince Charming even though you can be a mean person sometimes." Now he's glaring at me, but honestly I don't care, because I'm too happy for that.
He stretched his hand out, I gracefully took his hand and we walked inside the restaurant with interlocked fingers. "Are we having a double date with FourTris?"
"No, they won't be coming. It's just you and me. Let them celebrate their engagement!"
"What about us?"
"There's lots to celebrate sweetheart." He answers back. "What about your dad?!"
"Lets just give him some time, because he needs to digest the fact, that his wife wasn't as faithful as he thought she was."
"Yeah, right!" I say, I feel bad for Mr. Coulter, but he deserves to know the truth and now he does.
When we did reach the receptionist, she says, while she doesn't bother looking at us, "sorry sir and mam, but the whole restaurant is already reserved." I look at her name tag and say, "my husband knows the owners of this prestiges restaurant miss Ling."
"That's what a lot of people say in general. I'm sorry, but I don't accept, what you said. "Let them in Kathy," Uriah says, "this man over there is Eric Coulter and that's his wife Adrianna Coulter." Kathy looks at us and says, "I apologise for my impolite behaviour Mr and Mrs. Coulter." We accept her apology and walk deeper inside with Uriah as our guide.
We took the elevator upstairs to the highest point of the building. As soon as the elevator opened, I saw that we were on the rooftop. "Surprise, we reserved the most special table for you two." Uriah says proudly and Eric asks, "did you arrange everything I asked for?" Zeke then comes and says, "yep, everything's ready for you and your lovely wife." He winks at me and Eric sends a glare towards him, so I give him a flying, which Zeke tries to receive, but my jealous man is faster than him. He grabs me a bit roughly and kisses me without thinking about the two goofball twins, even though they're not.
As soon as they leave, Eric lets go off me and is a gentleman again. I love the jealous side of him, it's freaking adorable. I wanted to check out the menu card, but Eric wouldn't let and he says, "we're getting a surprise supper, because I know that you'll like ZekRiah's special dish!"
"Okay."
"It's their best. I love it so much, that I could forget anyone and anything."
"Oh really?" I raise one of my eyebrows at him and he nods. "Even you." I shoot daggers at him.
The food came and I ate all of it, because it was so delicious and so spicy, that everything inside me was burning. Eric smirks at me and looks at me with the look, "I told you so", even the dessert is mind blowing.
Our night was nearing to an end, but Eric had planned another surprise for me and I was waiting for it. He blindfolded me again and we walked into something else maybe another room or the elevator. But I heard something else, water crashing into rocks. "Where are we Eric?!" I ask as I was scared. "Shh, Adrianna there's no need to be scared. We are save here." I trust him and nod, while leaning against him. He kisses my forehead lovingly and says, "I'm going to remove your blindfold slowly and then you have to turn around for a few minutes. He takes the blindfold off me and I turn around like he told me to do. What I see is stunning. He had arranged everything for the best night ever for us. Sheke, Urlene, FourTris, AleYnn and Mr. Coulter were here holding a sign saying, "turn around!" I do as the sign says and see Eric on both knees. "Adrianna Coulter-Prior will you make me the luckiest man by marrying me?" I was beyond shocked and answer back, "a thousand times yes." I fall to my knees and say, "you're making me the luckiest woman by making me your bride again!" He takes out a ring and slides onto my ring finger. I admire my ring, "it's simple but unique and sophisticated. It's yellow gold, with a medium sized diamond in the middle, a smaller diamond for both sides each and a small pearl for both sides too. The ring was more than perfect for me and it does fit me. One by one everyone walked towards us, hugged and congratulated us and then we all started to head home, some were going to have a mini celebration of their own, "cough, FourTris, cough!" Or maybe even Eric and I, because I can sense this man's eagerness to rip of our clothes and to wear something comfortable.
