Chapter 23
"I.. I don't know what to say" Stephanie says, she hadn't really thought he would propose to her. She looked down at the ring and then back at Dwayne, this must have cost him a fortune. It was beautiful; it had one very big diamond in the center and four little blue diamonds set next to the central diamond.
"Well how about you say yes, you mean everything to me and I want you to marry me so...?" Dwayne says, he watches as she takes the ring out of the box.
"Of course I'll marry you!" Stephanie says putting her arms around his neck and hugging him. He slips the ring on her finger and kisses her.
"You have no idea how happy you have made me!" Dwayne says, "This is like every holiday and special occasion rolled into one!" He says feeling like he just wants to scream and shout and jump around the room.
"Dwayne, promise you wont tell anyone yet. Not until my parents know at least, we need to tell them in person" Stephanie says, she stands up in front of him, he picks her up and spins her round.
"Ok I promise, it doesn't matter what anyone else says now! We're going to get married!" Dwayne says a huge grin on his face "You wont regret this, I will do everything I can to make you the happiest person alive I swear!" He says scooping her up in his arms again.
"I can't believe this is happening, this is insane" Stephanie says, Dwayne puts her down and looks at her.
"Good insane or bad insane?" He asks, she smiles at him and puts her arms around him.
"Good insane of course, this ring is beautiful where did you get it" She asks, looking at it again watching It sparkle in the light.
"I got it at the airport, I've been thinking about asking you for a while now and was going to wait till after the next PPV, ask you somewhere nice and all that but I saw this one and had to get it for you, Linda helped me out with your size because I couldn't exactly go back and ask you so I called her. I was going to wait for a while but I couldn't" Dwayne says watching her as she studies it. "I love you," he whispers so she can just hear him.
"I love you too" Stephanie says, "Now lets go eat, I'm starving" Steph says taking his hand as they go downstairs to the kitchen.
"I'm too excited to eat" Dwayne laughs as they look through the cupboards to see what there is, "This is why I hate being on the road, when you get home there is NO food!" Dwayne moans.
"I know, anyway you have to eat something, you have to build up your strength," She says winking at him and laughing.
"Ohhh, now that you mention it, I am starving!" Dwayne chuckles "What the hell am I going to do while your at work next week, Vince told me I had to take the week off, he probably thinks I'm going to kill Paul or something" Dwayne says as he sits down on a stool at the counter.
"Just because you're taking the week off doesn't mean you can't come into work does it, you can still travel with me and stay backstage. Check out the sights of where we are or something" Stephanie suggests going and sitting next to him and passing him a plate of food.
"I s'pose so, I don't wanna stay here on my own though, I might get lonely" Dwayne laughs.
"Aww didums, you poor thing!" Stephanie says rolling her eyes "I've never heard anyone talk as much rubbish as you do D" She says.
"I guess that's why you love me." Dwayne laughs before walking into the lounge with his plate to watch TV.
