I do not own Rocket Power or A Walk To Remember.
Chapter 19: Her #1
It was the same night that we were in the graveyard. We looked up at her telescope and saw many stars, including her star. I couldn't believe that only a few weeks ago, I had ridiculed her and treated her worse than a dog. She was a great person; she always put others before herself, and never gave up, no matter what happened to her. She was the strongest person I knew, and I wished that more people were like her. To this day I still wish that. But even if that happened, there would only be one Reggie Rocket, and that was the Reggie Rocket that I was in love with. After we looked at stars for about an hour, we cuddled on one of the blankets.
"So," I asked her, "What's your number one?" She looked at me and smiled.
"To marry in the Church where my mother grew up. That's where my parents were married," she replied.
"What happened to your mother, or do you not wanna talk about it?" I asked out of curiosity.
"She got sick and died right after Otto was born ," she replied, looking down at her lap. "That's why I carry around that Bible. It belonged to her. When my parents were married, it was a wedding gift, and she always read it before she went to sleep. When she was in the hospital, she still read it before going to sleep. When she died, my daddy carried Otto and me out of the hospital, and I held the Bible at the same time. So I feel like I'm carrying around a part of her."
"Well," I told her. "I'm sorry to hear that. But always carry around your Bible, no matter what the other kids at school say." I told her as she smiled up at me. "And," I continued, "with your number one, I know that you'll easily achieve it." She had an uneasy look on her face for a second, but then smiled. I kissed her, and then we ended up snuggling together on one blanket after all. Not too much later, we fell asleep with the glittery sky above us, and I decided that I would be a part of her number one. I had this gut feeling that we would be together forever.
Hey peeps! Another short scene, so another short chapter. Though I had to add some things from the book to fill up space, but o well. If you haven't read the book, it's by Nicholas Sparks, and it's very good! I highly recommend it!
